The two of them arrived at Tiansheng Gambling House. The gambling house was closed in the morning, the door was ajar, and there were only a few cleaning boys in the huge hall. 【Read full text】
Tang Qi was yawning as he came down from the second floor. After taking the last step, he lazily leaned against the wall, grabbed a boy and started scolding him. After cursing, he looked up and saw Xu Nuo pushing in the door. He called Xu Liu and leaned against the wall without moving a step, waiting for her to pass.
But Xu Nuo didn't seem to hear him. He found a boy nearby and handed him the jade pendant.
When the boy saw Yu, he exclaimed and quickly turned his eyes from Xu Nuo and Hu Ling. He turned around and ran to the second floor. When he met Tang Qi, he ignored them.
Tang Qi came over with a dark face and said as if you owed me money: "Why, you have taken away the title of Chief Dealer of Suzhou. You haven't shown your face for so long. Why are you here today?"
Chief dealer?
Hu Nuo was surprised, and so was Hu Ling.
Although the things they were surprised about were different, neither of them showed their surprise. Hu Ling raised his chin and looked straight at Tang Qi: "You have a pockmarked face, a piece of broken grass in your mouth, and you are talking nonsense. Your chin dropped." .What are you staring at? Be careful, young master, I will destroy your shop."
She came to Tiansheng Gambling House several times and saw Tang Qi arrogantly cursing people. Today, she actually mocked the promise again with a bad face, and her anger suddenly rose.
Xu Nuo knew that she was very angry and didn't know how to control her emotions, so she hurriedly grabbed her, looked at Tang Qi and twitched the corner of her mouth with a half-smile: "Tang Qi, since I am the chief dealer, don't treat me with this attitude, be careful You can’t survive in Suzhou City.”
She guessed that she became the chief dealer because she won the last dealer competition.
At this time, the servant from before came over and asked Xu to go upstairs.
They were invited to the West Tang Room on the second floor. A plate of snacks was placed on the table, and two white porcelain cups were steaming.
Before Zhu Shang came, Hu Ling sat cross-legged on the mat, holding a cup and warming his hands, and curiously asked Xu Nuo: "How did you become the chief dealer? Aren't you the wife of the Xu family? How can you do Sic Bo?" ? Let’s compete someday.”
"I have lived abroad for many years, so it is not unusual for me to know how to play Sic Bo. I worked as a dealer here the year before I returned to Xu Mansion. Last month, I was deceived by Zhu Shang and had a dealer competition. Also, I will not compete with you. "Xu Nuo turned his head and replied in a low voice, thinking about the rumors outside that had dissipated.
"Zhu Shang is really amazing. You are so smart that you were deceived by him. I really saw the right person. Why didn't you tell me this? Wait a minute. Didn't you lose your memory? How could you still know Zhu Shang? How could you still know him? You know Sic Bo... Is it possible that you haven't lost your memory?" Although Hu Ling was surprised, he didn't scream, his brows were knitted together, looking very confused.
"Yes." Xu Nuo didn't think about hiding the matter from Hu Ling, so he answered without any scruples. After speaking, he even took a piece of snack and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Who else knows?" Hu Ling felt as if he had opened up a new world. He put down his cup and strode back and forth happily on the ground, thinking: "Everyone said that your whole person changed after you lost your memory, but you didn't lose your memory. There has been such a big change in temperament..."
At this time, the door opened, and Zhu Shang stood outside with squinted eyes, wearing a navy blue robe with a jade belt tied around his waist, smiling as always: "What's the matter?"
Hu Ling rushed forward and looked at Zhu Shang with a smile but said nothing.
Seeing this scene, Xu Nuo suddenly remembered Hu Ling's evaluation of his senior brother: The senior brother is the cleanest and dirtiest person in the world.
Since she liked her senior brother before, why did she suddenly like Zhu Shang? Zhu Shang is not a clean person, but a businessman who spends all his time with money and smells of copper.
Aesthetics change too quickly!
Zhu Shang took a step forward, and Hu Ling followed suit. He glanced at Hu Ling, then looked at Xu Nuo: "Why are you asking me for the jade pendant? Is this possible?"
Xu Nuo held her forehead, but she didn't expect Hu Ling to be such a nymphomaniac, so she helplessly replied: "Yes."
Zhu Shang laughed out loud: "It's too wasteful." A jade pendant can see him three times, but there are no more than five people who own this jade pendant.
Xuanyue didn't think it was a waste. He thought about it and asked, "What's going on with those storytellers outside? In less than a month, they went from scolding me to praising me?" The implication was, was it you who did it? .
A shrewd person like Zhu Shang naturally knew what Xu Nuo was asking, and chuckled: "It's not me, but you have seen that person before."
Just as Xu Nuo was about to speak, Zhu Shang said again: "Don't ask me who I am, I promised not to tell."
"I like you." Hu Ling was silent in her appreciation of Zhu Shang, and did not hear the conversation between the two at all. She suddenly said this, looking at Zhu Shang eagerly, with eyes that were both serious and nymphomaniacal.
Xu Nuo was shocked, but Zhu Shang laughed calmly: "This kind of thing will be said to me every time I go to Manchun Tower."
He even compared Hu Ling to a prostitute!
Xu Nuo has a bad heart, and Hu Ling has a bad temper, and he may take action if something doesn't go his way.
Sure enough, Hu Ling's expression changed drastically, he raised his chin and pulled out the whip from his waist. She was about to be furious, but then she laughed, gritted her teeth and asked, "Tell me who said such things to you. See if I don't make her kneel down and beg for mercy."
Zhu Shang secretly laughed in his heart, this Hu Sanniang was just as Xiao Yuan said, she would explode at the first moment. He opened his squinted eyes, closed them again in a flash, and said in a deep voice: "Their original words were 'I like your money'. I wonder if this lady also likes someone's money?"
This sentence made Hu Ling put away the angry sneer on her face and said proudly: "I like your face. I don't care about that money." Anyway, she can go to a gambling house to earn money when she has no money, not to mention She still has her grandfather, so she can't afford to be a thug and she won't be hungry.
Zhu Shang frowned in shock at Hu Ling's frankness. If she said that she liked his elegant demeanor or his talent, he could accept these reasons, but liking the face was nothing. He was not a six-foot tall man. This face is for eating.
After persuading myself several times in my mind, I opened my brows, bowed, and said seriously: "Thank you, madam, for the reward. I also know that so-and-so has a good-looking face, and many people like it. Your second senior brother asked me to tell you about him. Waiting for you next door."
What a narcissist, Xu Nuo sighed, and at the same time saw Hu Ling holding a whip and rushing out angrily like a whirlwind.
Seeing that Hu Ling was gone, Zhu Shang breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that no wonder Xiao Yuan was avoiding her. His hands unconsciously touched his face, admiring in his heart that the curves were perfect and the skin was firm, which was indeed worthy of being liked.
"Who is her second senior brother?" Xu Nuo stared at Zhu Shang's beautiful and evil face, remembered his narcissistic comments, and looked away again.
Zhu Shang lowered his slender fingers from his face and said calmly: "If you want to know, ask Hu Sanniang, but since today is here, don't waste it." After speaking, he took Xu Nuo to another private room.
