Chapter 367 [Worry About Gains and Losses] (1)
Luo Lie went back very late. He went to the blind man's house to have a big chat. The two of them talked about a lot of past events. When they talked about the emotional part, the blind man burst into tears. Luo Lie was also quite moved. They had grown up unknowingly.
Back at the residence, he saw that the living room of the small building was still on. Luo Lie walked into the living room. Ye Qinghong was asleep while sitting on the sofa holding the pillow in his hand. Luo Lie took off his clothes and came to Ye Qinghong. Ye Qinghong opened his eyes at this time, saw Luo Lie in front of him, and smiled and said, "Are you back?" He smelled the smell of cigarettes and wine on Luo Lie, frowned and said, "I drank a lot, go and take a shower."
Luo Lie nodded and said with concern: "Are you waiting?"
Ye Qinghong said: "I didn't. I was reading a book just now and fell asleep somehow. Go and take a shower, it smells like a whole body."
Luo Lie said: "Well, you go to bed early too."
Ye Qinghong said: "Hey, my daughter is asleep, don't go to see her anymore, so as not to wake her up."
"knew!"
Luo Lie walked towards the guest room downstairs. Although he and Ye Qinghong lived under the same roof, they had been living in separate rooms.
Luo Lie came out of the shower and saw Ye Qinghong still sitting there, so he walked over again: "Why haven't you been asleep yet?"
Ye Qinghong said: "I remembered something to discuss with you."
Luo Lie came to Ye Qinghong to sit down. Ye Qinghong's tender white feet were placed on the sofa. Luo Lie's eyes couldn't help but fall on her beautiful feet. Ye Qinghong realized something, put down her feet, put on her slippers, and handed an invitation to Luo Lie.
Luo Lie took the invitation and opened it, but it was an invitation letter for a dance party. The invitation letter was given to Ye Qinghong, and the invitation was Zhang Lingkong.
Because Luo Lie heard Bai Yunfei mention this person at noon, he also understood Zhang Lingkong. He whispered: "This Zhang Lingkong is Zhang Lingfeng's cousin, right?"
Ye Qinghong nodded and said, "You are well-informed,"
Luo Lie said: "This person became famous in Huangpu, it's hard not to know if he didn't know."
Ye Qinghong smiled and said, "But I don't know him, so I was confused when I received this invitation. I haven't been in Huangpu for so long, I didn't expect anyone to remember me. Until Zhang Lingfeng called me and said he asked me to go over and said he wanted to invite me as his dance companion. Do you think I'm going?"
Luo Lie heard that Ye Qinghong was deliberately testing him, and coughed and said, "Zhang Lingfeng is your good friend."
Ye Qinghong said: "It's a bit of friendship, but since he refused to testify for you last time, I no longer regard him as a friend."
Luo Lie said: "But in the end he still testified for me. In fact, he did not see the situation clearly at that time, so he could not make perjury."
Ye Qinghong said: "You are still saying good things for him."
Luo Liedao: "I'm just talking about the matter."
Ye Qinghong said: "Then do you think I'm going or not?"
Luo Lie said: "I can't make the decision, and I didn't invite me."
Ye Qinghong said: "Then I'll go."
Luo Liedao: "Finish!"
Ye Qinghong said: "Are you not jealous?"
Luo Liedao: "Aren't you a friend?"
Ye Qinghong was obviously a little unhappy and stood up and said, "I'm tired, I'm going to sleep."
Luo Lie said: "Go to rest early!"
Ye Qinghong walked up the stairs quickly, and her nose felt sore as she walked, and tears fell down her eyes.
Ye Qinghong decided to attend the dance. She originally wanted to refuse at all, but Luo Lie's indifferent attitude stimulated her. She felt that her efforts had been ignored by Luo Lie. Even when another man invited her to be his dance partner, Luo Lie did not show any jealousy. This was indifferent. Maybe Luo Lie had no place in her heart.
Ye Qinghong hasn't dressed up so grandly for a long time. She wants Luo Lie to know that she is not a silly girl no one wants.
On the day of the dance, Luo Lie took Xiao Caihong out to play early in the morning. Ye Qinghong was unable to see them. She even began to hesitate whether she should be angry with Luo Lie. If Luo Lie told her that she could not go to her now, or if he didn't need to say anything, he invited herself out for dinner. Even if she had a walk together, Ye Qinghong would immediately give up the idea of attending the dance, but Luo Lie still did not come back until four o'clock in the afternoon.
Ye Qinghong felt abandoned. The father and daughter had gone out early in the morning. Although she got up a little later than usual, they didn't even say anything to her. She didn't come back for the whole day.
Ye Qinghong felt more and more like an outsider. No matter how hard she tried, she could not really enter this home. When she walked into Luo Lie's heart, Ye Qinghong cried and put on makeup, but she quickly calmed down, washed her face, put on makeup, and went out. Today she wanted to live a good life for herself.
The new world was rebuilt on the basis of Blue Mill. Blue Mill was once the industry of Mu Sanye. After Mu Sanye passed away, these industries were born into Bai Yunfei. Bai Yunfei had no interest in the operation of the dance hall. In addition, he transformed into Huadong in the French Concession and had the idea of transferring such a useless industry as Blue Mill. Bai Yunfei did not know who the final buyer was. When Blue Mill became the New World, the backstage boss Zhang Lingkong gradually surfaced.
If Bai Yunfei knew that the original buyer was Zhang Lingkong, he would not sell the Blue Mill, even though the price was appropriate for the other party, after Zhang Lingkong returned to Huangpu, his business circle was mainly in the public concession, and they had always been peaceful. The New World was located in the French Concession, which was equivalent to Zhang Lingkong stepping into his own sphere of influence. How could Bai Yunfei be happy?
According to his understanding, Zhang Lingkong is actually the representative of the interest group of the Northern Manchurian warlord Zhang Tongwu. Zhang Tongwu's life in Manchuria was not easy. In the past two years, with the continuous strengthening of Japanese forces in Manchuria, the Southern Manchurian warlord Xu Beishan continued to grow with the support of Japan. Zhang Tongwu, who was originally superior in power, began to show decline and suffered consecutive defeats before. Most of the people no longer favored Zhang Tongwu and his group, and believed that it would be a matter of time before they were driven out of Manchuria. In fact, the entire Manchuria could have something in their pockets.
Under such circumstances, Zhang Tongwu and his team had to consider retreating, and the troops were ready before they moved their food and grass. In today's era, it was how to maximize the wealth of their Zhang family.
Ye Qinghong took a bus to the New World. Seeing the neon lights flashing outside the gate of the New World, she couldn't help but remember that when she first arrived in Huangpu, she became the most popular singer in Huangpu with the help of Mu Sanshou. The only purpose she had in her heart was to take revenge.
It was in the assassination of Ren Zhongchang that she met Luo Lie, a man who made her unforgettable, and revisited the old place. Ye Qinghong thought a lot. She realized that she had fallen in love with him since the first day she met Luo Lie, but because of the mission of revenge, their relationship had to be positioned as being used and used. Those who participated in the frame-up of her father have now been punished, and this does not mean that the grudges have disappeared from now on.
When will the revenge be repaid? The ancient sayings of our ancestors really make sense. She killed Ren Zhongchang. Ren Zhongchang's son Ren Tianjun took revenge by any means. It was Ren Tianjun's revenge that forced her to choose to separate from Luo Lie for the time being. She left Huangpu and went to Europe. Luo Lie had to hide his identity and take refuge in Manchuria because of being falsely accused of murder. This separation made them separate from each other from now on.
A separation caused a coincidence between them. When the news calmed down, Ye Qinghong heard the news that Luo Lie and Lan Ximei were getting married. She originally wanted to return to China as soon as possible, so she stayed in Europe. It took three years to go.
Ye Qinghong did not ask for any reward from Luo Lie, but she only hoped that Luo Lie would have a small part of her heart. However, Luo Lie's indifference and indifference this time greatly hurt her self-esteem, making her think that she was simply dispensable in Luo Lie's heart.
Ye Qinghong often missed the time when only three of them lived in the wooden houses in the Paibai Mountain. At that time, she and Luo Lie were closer. On the way to the new world, Ye Qinghong thought silently that maybe Luo Lie had never changed, and even in the Paibai Mountain, she was just fantasizing. Because there was no disturbance from outsiders, the conflict between her and Luo Lie was hidden. When they returned to the real society and the prosperous Huangpu, some crises could no longer be hidden.
What should come will always come. Ye Qinghong looked up at the light box of the new world. She almost forgot who she was? She forgot what she looked like. Did Luo Lie not like this? She thought of Xiao Caihong, did Xiao Caihong not miss her Hong's mother anymore? Thinking of Xiao Caihong's simple and clear eyes, Ye Qinghong almost burst into tears again, and she had the idea of going back again. What if Xiao Caihong couldn't see her when she came home? Ye Qinghong sighed softly. She was not Xiao Caihong's mother after all. Maybe Xiao Caihong just regarded herself as a substitute. If it weren't for this reason, would Luo Lie have rejected her long ago?
Ye Qinghong quietly asked herself when she began to become so humble and when she began to become worried about gains and losses, she had already lost herself.
"Qinghong!"
Ye Qinghong heard Zhang Lingfeng's surprise shouts, and she sorted out her emotions and showed a noble and reserved smile on her face.
Zhang Lingfeng is still wearing military uniforms. He hasn't seen him for three years. He is a little fatter than in the past. It seems that the war in Manchuria has not delayed his pampering life. Zhang Lingfeng has a female companion, a girl with short hair cut in her ears and looks like a student.
