Chapter 1618 Big Fire
Chapter 1618 ·The Great Fire
Bai Rongxuan rested for a while and then felt much more comfortable.
She discussed with Min Tingke, "My injuries have almost healed. Should I go back to Bai's house to recuperate? It's a bit inconvenient to live with Uncle Six?"
Min Tingke said, "What's inconvenient? It's closer to Western medicine. If there is any situation, it's better to ask someone to come."
Bai Rongxuan said, "I'm fine already..."
Min Tingke said, "If you are really okay, how could you be so tired and panting after walking two steps? Be obedient and go back when you are completely ready."
Bai Rongxuan sighed softly.
Min Tingke said, "What? Are you tired of staying here? Why don't I send it to Min's house for a while?"
Then what's the difference? It's not that you change the soup or the medicine?
Bai Rongxuan said, "I'm afraid of causing trouble for you..."
Min Tingke laughed and said, "Is that so? I have to thank you, but I never think you are a troublesome. With you, I have someone to talk to, otherwise it would be even more boring."
Bai Rongxuan said, "Is there still a shortage of people around Uncle Six who can talk? Those who want to talk to you are afraid they can go far away."
Min Tingke said, "How can that be the same? On the one hand, it is the person I want to talk to, and on the other hand, it is the person I don't want to deal with."
Bai Rongxuan didn't say anything. After resting for a while, she lay back on the bed again. She didn't mention leaving the concession. Min Tingke was very happy. After lunch with her, he whispered in a low voice when he had lunch after dinner, "I may have to go out twice in the past two days. You can stay at home with peace of mind. Just tell someone if you need anything."
Bai Rongxuan said in surprise, "Is there something wrong outside?"
It looks very worried.
Min Tingke said in a relaxed tone, "If there is anything, don't scare yourself. Zeng Mingwei is here, I have to go and meet him."
Zeng Mingwei?
Bai Rongxuan said, "His he really came from Guangdong?"
Min Tingke said, "Yes, isn't this just like Guan Boyuan's birthday? They are cousins, so they naturally have to come and celebrate their birthday."
It’s fake to support the show, is it true to watch jokes?
Bai Rongxuan said, "Then you must be careful when you go out."
Min Tingke said, "Don't worry, it's very safe. As the saying goes, learn from one's mistakes and learn from one's mistakes. Can't I even bear this lesson?"
Bai Rongxuan was at ease? But she couldn't help, so she could only say, "When will Zeng Mingwei arrive?"
Min Tingke said, "The boat should have docked this afternoon."
Bai Rongxuan nodded, "Will he live in the butler?"
"Most not." Min Tingke said, "If Zeng Mingwei and the butler had such a good relationship, he wouldn't have come here deliberately at this time."
Too.
There is another saying that Min Tingke didn't say, that is, during the days when Bai Rongxuan was recovering from her injuries, Guan Bozhou came here many times. Although he was evaded by the servants of the Min family, he was untiring and had to visit him every now and then. Even Min Tingke admired his cultivation and perseverance.
Bai Rongxuan said, "Then are you going to pick him up in the afternoon?"
Min Tingke shook his head, "No. Zeng Mingwei doesn't have that big face yet, let's talk about it when he settles down. Even if I don't go to find him, he will come to me on his own initiative."
Bai Rongxuan said worriedly, "Uncle Six, you should not participate in the Zeng family and the housekeeper's affairs. Anyway, it has nothing to do with you, so why bother to do this?"
Guan Boyuan is not a fuel-efficient lamp. If he really offended him, the Min family will inevitably be blocked from doing things in the future. It is really not cost-effective.
Min Tingke said, "I know, I know."
Bai Rongxuan didn't say much, but she was still a little uneasy.
As Min Tingke expected, although Guan Bozhou went to the ferry to pick him up in person, Zeng Mingwei still did not stay in the housekeeper, but opened a room at the National Hotel near the concession. He sent someone to send a post that night to invite Min Tingke to have a gathering.
Min Tingke used the excuse of being in poor health and refused the next day. Zeng Mingwei didn't take it seriously. That night he went to Paramount to get drunk and spent a lot of money. The next morning, his reputation resounded throughout Shanghai. Everyone said that he was heroic and handsome, and he was open-minded and straightforward, and he praised him too much.
Guan Boyuan was angry after hearing this, but he had no choice but to call Zeng Shaoquan and tell him what happened here. Finally, he did not forget to remind him, "Uncle, it is an important moment now. Mingwei's behavior is so ostentatious. I can't tell him, and you have to think of a way."
Zeng Shaoquan sighed, "Don't worry, I will come forward to restrain him."
Guan Boyuan also knew very well that this "restraint" was mostly useless.
After hanging up the phone, he couldn't help but have a headache again.
Faced with such a complicated situation, he was a little bored and could not think of a good way to break the situation. When Zeng Mingwei came to Shanghai, the two would meet no matter what, and they had to pretend to be close to nature in front of others. Thinking of these, Guan Boyuan was in a very bad mood.
After a while, the secretary sent a post, "Mayor, this is sent by Mayor Zeng."
Guan Boyuan signaled him to put down the post, but he felt a headache.
He opened the post after the secretary left.
It turned out that Zeng Mingwei asked him to drink at night, so he booked his place in Paramount.
Guan Boyuan suddenly became angry.
No matter what, he is also a local official in charge of the country. How could he go to that place to drink and have fun? Who else will listen to his words in the future?
Zeng Mingwei was clearly intentional!
Guan Boyuan threw the post into the trash can without thinking.
He was unwilling to work and smoked two or three cigarettes before he gradually relaxed. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Guan called again, "Boyuan, have you ever gone to see Mingwei?"
Guan Boyuan said lightly, "Not yet."
Mrs. Guan said, "No matter what, people come from afar, you are the master and he is the guest. You should take time to see him, otherwise it would be nice to spread it, and it would be difficult for your uncle to get caught in the middle."
Guan Boyuan was so smart. He immediately asked when he heard the sound, "Did my uncle tell you something?"
Mrs. Guan hurriedly said, "No, your uncle is so busy with everything he wants to care about these trivial matters? I suddenly thought that I was afraid that you would neglect him, so I turned around and ran to your uncle to complain, making you unfamiliar."
Guan Boyuan said disdainfully, "If you sue, I'm still afraid that he won't succeed?"
Mrs. Guan said, "I know you are not afraid, but it's hard to get along with your uncle for such a thing. After all, it's a family. Besides, your two younger brothers are not yet settled, and your uncle needs to help mediate. Don't make trouble at this critical moment. That Mingwei is the same. If you don't come early or late, you won't come at this time, it's really annoying to come."
Guan Boyuan sighed, "Forget it, don't worry about these things. I understand what you mean. I will find time to meet him. On my territory, he can't do anything even if he is hung on him."
Seeing that his son agreed, Mrs. Guan gave a few more instructions and hung up the phone.
At night, Guan Boyuan came to Paramount with a tough bullet. As soon as he walked to the door, he saw a familiar figure first.
He was shocked and said in surprise, "Shu...Miss Shu?"
A beautiful figure in front of him slowly turned around, with a calm expression, "Mayor Guan, I haven't seen you for a long time."
It is Shu Xin who has dealt with the housekeeper because of Guan Boyu's collision and death.
