· Thoughts

Bai Rongxuan and Wu Jie hurriedly left the flower hall.

Min Tingke looked at her back, looking thoughtful.

Mrs. Min said, "Hurry up and eat, why are you so dazed?"

Min Tingke sighed softly, "Auntie, why do I always feel that Brother Zhi is weird? Don't you feel it?"

Mrs. Min smiled and said, "I think you are still weird, but you are not allowed to talk to people like that."

Min Tingke said, "Auntie is getting better and better towards Brother Zhi."

Mrs. Min glared at him, "Am I not treating you well?"

Mrs. Min always ate very little for dinner. She put down her chopsticks early and sat on a chair while drinking tea and chatting with Min Tingke. The atmosphere in the flower hall was very good.

After leaving the house, Bai Rongxuan was led by Yu Jin to Yi'antang.

Yu Jin stepped forward and opened the door, and said gently, "It's too dark in the room. Master Zhi, I'll go get someone to light a lamp and bring it over."

Bai Rongxuan glanced at the room, which was indeed very dark.

But isn’t that just right?

She quickly stopped Yu Jin, "It's just a change of clothes, no need to go to such trouble." She then told Wu Jie behind her, "Just stay outside and guard the door for me. I can go in by myself."

Wu Jie agreed immediately.

Bai Rongxuan walked in holding the brocade box, and Wu Jie immediately closed the door.

Yu Jin, who was standing in front of the door, felt strange but didn't say anything.

After a while, Bai Rongxuan opened the door and walked out. Dressed in a crisp white dress, it was like a ray of sunshine piercing the dark clouds on a dark rainy day, making people's eyes bright.

Yu Jin couldn't help but look up and down, "Young Master Zhi's clothes are really beautiful."

Bai Rongxuan laughed awkwardly, "Really? This was given to me by Uncle Six."

Yu Jin said, "Sixth Master has good vision, and Master Zhi is worthy of it."

Bai Rongxuan returned to the flower hall in silence.

At this moment, Min Tingke was drinking tea and talking with Mrs. Min. When they heard the noise, they both raised their heads at the same time and saw Bai Rongxuan walking in slowly.

The two of them immediately opened their eyes in shock.

Mrs. Min even praised her repeatedly, "Oh, Brother Zhi is a rare handsome man. He looks even more handsome after wearing this dress."

Min Tingke said with a smile, "How else can we say that a man relies on his clothes and a horse relies on his saddle?"

"Nonsense!" Mrs. Min glared at him, "This is not a good thing to say, and Brother Zhi is not a horse either!"

Min Tingke saw that the time was almost up, so he put down his tea cup and stood up and said, "Auntie, it's time for us to leave. Even though it's a dance organized by Su Cheng first, we can't go too late. We have to be considerate of some feelings."

Mrs. Min nodded, "It's natural, either you don't go. Now that you've gone, you have to save your face. Su Chengxian has been the all-powerful man in Shanghai for so many years, but he is not a fuel-efficient lamp. You still have to deal with him."

Just cheer up. By the way, those who go to the second room tonight will also go, right?"

Min Tingke said, "I dare not say anything about others, but Bai Linglong will definitely show up."

Mrs. Min asked curiously, "Why?"

What else could be the reason? It must be related to Guan Bozhou.

As expected, Min Tingke said slowly, "I heard that the housekeeper's second son will also attend. Su Chengxian has three daughters, and the housekeeper has three sons. Except for the unsatisfactory third son, the remaining two can marry anyone. Like this

Su Chengxian must make some arrangements for the occasion."

Mrs. Min said, "Sometimes it's not a good thing to be too clear about your intentions. People like Su Chengxian who push his daughter out at every turn will not pay attention to anyone who is a little calculating."

Min Tingke said, "Auntie, please don't worry about him. The old fox can't sleep at night. He is afraid that he will spend all day calculating who to marry his daughter to and how much power it will bring to him."

Mrs. Min snorted disdainfully, "No wonder he had thought about marrying that third lady to you earlier. He really dared to think about it."

Min Tingke laughed and said, "It's nothing, he can only use his brain. Auntie, I'm taking Brother Zhi out."

Mrs. Min explained uneasily, "It's the first time for Brother Zhi to go to such an occasion. You must take good care of him. Don't let him suffer the loss of the second wife, you know?"

Min Tingke assured, "Don't worry, aunt, how could anything happen to him with me here?"

After saying that, he waved to Bai Rongxuan, "Brother Zhi, let's go."

Bai Rongxuan said goodbye to Mrs. Min and caught up with Min Tingke.

The two of them went out one after another. The Min family's servant and Wu Jie held up umbrellas at the same time, protecting the two of them and getting into the car.

Min Tingke gave instructions to the driver, and the car drove off, while the boys sat in the car behind.

Bai Rongxuan asked curiously, "Uncle Six, the dance will be here soon, is there anything I need to pay attention to?"

Min Tingke said calmly, "As long as you stay with me, I guarantee that nothing will happen to you."

Is it that simple?

Bai Rongxuan exhaled gently to relieve her tension and anxiety.

After the car drove for a while, there was a traffic jam ahead. Bai Rongxuan looked around and asked, "What happened?"

The driver replied, "Don't worry, Mr. Zhi. There are probably too many people attending the dance and the roads are congested. It's possible that the traffic cannot be allocated for a while."

All right.

Bai Rongxuan sat quietly in the car, staring at the scenery outside the window.

The streets washed away by the rain looked extremely clean.

Min Tingke suddenly stretched himself and told the driver tiredly, "Park the car closer for a while. If the dance is not interesting, I will leave early. Instead of being hypocritical and polite with those people, it is better to go home and sleep."

The driver agreed immediately.

After waiting for a long time, there was still no movement from the car in front.

How many people have come?

The carriage was unusually quiet. Bai Rongxuan felt a little embarrassed and could only ask, "Uncle Liu, what have you been busy with these days?"

Min Tingke said, "It's nothing, it's all trivial things. It's not like you. You can hide in the study and read and write. I don't have such free time now."

As he was talking, why did it get involved with him again?

Bai Rongxuan said dissatisfiedly, "I don't want to be idle either. I don't have anything to do."

"That's it..." Min Tingke said, "How about you come to my side and help me?"

Min Liu's side?

Then forget it.

Bai Rongxuan smiled and said, "Sixth Uncle is wise and powerful. It's all good if I don't cause you any trouble. How can I help you?"

Unexpectedly, she could say such flattering words without blushing and without her heart beating.

It seems that people do change.

Min Tingke smiled slightly, "Aren't you too busy?"

Bai Rongxuan hurriedly said, "I don't have any leisure time. I think it's good to be able to settle down and write."

Min Tingke smiled even brighter, "Has Bai Yuanze set a date to hand over the family business?"

Bai Rongxuan shook her head, "Not yet, but uncle said that we should choose an auspicious day."

Min Tingke said, "This is what it should be. After all, it is a major matter related to one house. We should ask a master to help calculate the date."

It's not so formal, right?

Bai Rongxuan said, "Since the matter has been left to Uncle Ze, let him decide. I am a junior, so I just have to wait with peace of mind."

Min Tingke nodded noncommittally and said nothing.

The atmosphere in the car became quiet again.

Bai Rongxuan thought for a while, then suddenly lowered her voice and asked, "Uncle Six, have you heard about Xing Wanshan? Brother Yao told me that day that the boat Xing Wanshan was on exploded when he escaped!"

Min Tingke said calmly, "I know, it's not a big deal."

Bai Rongxuan asked carefully, "Uncle Six, this matter has nothing to do with you, right?"

Min Tingke said with a smile, "If you want to say it has something to do with it, it really doesn't matter much. To say it doesn't matter, I also secretly added fuel to the flames. Didn't I tell you before? I am a person who must retaliate, and I hold grudges the most.

Xing Wanshan sent people to chase me, and if he ran away completely, wouldn't all my injuries be in vain?"
