Yellow people, this term has been almost discriminatory for a long time in modern history. The so-called yellow people, as the name suggests, are people with yellow skin. But in fact, most people in East Asian countries have fair or olive skin, not "yellow". East Asians are classified as a yellow race, which is actually an emotional (forbidden word) discrimination by Westerners.
In the West, white represents holiness, purity, wisdom and nobility; black symbolizes evil, dirt, death and barbarism; yellow represents impurity, vulgarity and pathology. In fact, when the civilization of the ancient Eastern countries was developed, Western travelers described the Eastern people very beautifully. They believed that the skin color of the Eastern people was fair and not yellow at all. However, with the development of the industrial revolution in the West, the ancient East became increasingly backward. In the eyes of Westerners, the East lost the qualification to be white like them, and the discriminatory term yellow was born.
However, after the war, as international exchanges became more and more in-depth and open, terms such as "Mongoloid" and "yellow race" rarely appeared in Western media. However, it cannot be denied that there are still some people with such words. racial thoughts.
Upon hearing this word, even Xia Shao frowned, while Hu Jiayi could not bear it and stood up!
"This is a public place, so of course we won't speak loudly. It's not like some people who kick in the door and make a lot of noise while saying others are inferior. I really don't know how much quality I have!" Hu Jiayi said angrily.
Lily's restaurant is very famous in the town. In the early evening, there were already many people sitting in the restaurant. Hu Jiayi's words undoubtedly slapped Julianne in the face and made her look angry! But then, she smiled, "Who did I think it was? It turned out to be the yellow dog who was trying to please our family."
These words were an insult. Hu Jiayi's face turned red with anger, "Who is fawning over your family?!"
"Isn't it? Your father also licked my father's shoes, how dare you bark at me?" Julianne smiled lightly.
"You!" Hu Jiayi's face turned redder with anger, "Listen, Julianne! Although our Hu family wants to open up the market in the UK, even if it doesn't succeed, we still have business in the country, so there is no need to curry favor with your family! Without money, people You can also have dignity!”
Hu Jiayi understands the difficulties of her father Hu Guangjin, but maybe because she is young, she is more energetic than Hu Guangjin in this regard. The British market is the first step for Hu's company to go abroad. If it fails, it will be laughed at by colleagues and friends at home. Therefore, Hu Guangjin attaches great importance to the British market, and even if he is humiliated, he must endure the humiliation. But Hu Jiayi doesn’t think so! She believes that when she goes abroad, Hu's company not only represents herself, but also represents the integrity of the Chinese people! The terrible thing is not failure in market development, but success without dignity! Julianne is not the only British clothing group, there is no need to fawn over them! Even if this fails and Hu's enterprise returns to the country, she will definitely take over her father's business. Even if she dies, she will pay back the shame she suffered today!
Hu Jiayi was so excited that her eyes were red. Julianne sneered, obviously scorning her so-called dignity.
The store was quiet, with some people watching the excitement and others winking at Hu Jiayi. These customers are regular customers of the store. Some of them are friends with Rosa's family and they don't like Julianne's behavior. However, their family is rich and powerful, and it is not something that ordinary people can afford to offend. Therefore, some people just winked at Hu Jiayi secretly, asking her to endure it. And some people's eyes were flying, thinking that today's atmosphere was even worse than usual, wouldn't there be a fight soon
At this moment, a leisurely laughter suddenly came from the store. This laughter seemed unusually abrupt in the eerily quiet atmosphere of the store, but it was also indescribably careless.
The customers in the store looked around and saw that it was an Oriental girl who was about the same age as Hu Jiayi and Julianne who was smiling. This girl's skin is rare and beautiful. The light in the store is slightly yellow. She is sitting in the dark, and the exposed skin seems to be covered with a faint pearly glow, which is breathtaking. This girl had been sitting there since the quarrel between Hu Jiayi and Julianne, with a cup of black tea in front of her, a light smile, and a calming aura about her. To be honest, she feels more like an aristocrat than Julianne.
And after she smiled, she spoke, speaking in a leisurely and leisurely manner, "Jiayi, calm down. We have a saying that people who are different do not work together. Your father was insulted, and you were angry. But No matter how angry you are, I don’t think some people can understand your mood.”
Xia Shao said this in English, and Julianne could understand it, but she didn't know what Xia Shao said.
"Who are you? Are you accusing me?" Julianne said with an unkind expression.
"You don't deserve to mention your identity in front of her!" Hu Jiayi retorted angrily! Not to mention that Huaxia Group's assets are comparable to those of Julian's family, let's just say that Xiaoshao is the future granddaughter-in-law of the Xu family. If it rises to the national and political level, the Xu family comes to the UK, regardless of whether the two countries are currently in the same country. If there is any diplomatic discord, British officials must take good care of it. Although the Julian family is considered a consortium in the UK, they are nothing more than businessmen and cannot even reach the edge of politics! Julianne? She's not even worthy of carrying Xiao Shao's shoes! Are you worthy of mentioning your identity in front of her
Hu Jiayi's words not only stunned Julianne, but also made everyone in the store look at Xia Shao with suspicion. After all, Xia Shao's demeanor did seem extraordinary, and until this moment, no one noticed that there was an Oriental man standing behind Xia Shao. Although he is on the thin side, looking at his appearance, he looks like a bodyguard.
This made Rosa and Lily, mother and daughter, who came out of it, look at Xia Shao blankly. how? Did Hu bring some important person to the store
Lily walked over with Ceylon black tea and placed it in front of Julianne. This was the first time in many years that Julian had no intention of criticizing her craftsmanship or embarrassing her. Instead, she stood up and asked Xia Shao with some fear, "Who are you?"
Xia Shao did not answer, but just smiled and asked incorrectly: "Miss Julianne, I heard that in Western concepts, blond and blue-eyed beauties are pure blood, right?"
"Of course." Julianne was slightly startled, but replied immediately. When she answered, she raised her neck proudly and inadvertently stroked her beautiful wavy blond hair with her hand.
Xia Shao's eyes stopped on her hands, and she asked with a gentle smile: "I like Miss Julianne's hair very much. Does it have someone to take care of it?"
"Of course." Julianne smiled again, her smile even more proud.
"Does it include hair dyeing?" Xia Shao raised an eyebrow and asked with a meaningful smile.
"When... what do you mean?!" Julianne was about to answer as a habit, but her expression changed halfway through the answer. But her answer had given her away.
Hu Jiayi suddenly became happy, "You said her hair was dyed?"
Xia Shao looked at her with a smile, "You have seen pure blond hair and blue eyes, can't you see it?"
Hu Jiayi was stunned for a moment, then her eyes darkened. Yes, she has seen it. Adam…
Julianne's family only has a history of a hundred years, but it cannot compare with the thousand-year glory of the Obikris family. Adam's bloodline is truly pure. But when she thought of Adam, the man's long golden hair and smiling eyes with a hint of melancholy flashed through her mind. Hu Jiayi suddenly frowned and felt a little stuffy in her heart. She took a deep breath and suppressed the feeling. , smiled and said: "Oh, it turns out that some people's hair is dyed. No wonder the luster is so unnatural. It can't be dyed since childhood, right? Xiaoshao, do you think such people's hair will fall out?" Are you wearing a wig?"
Xia Shao didn't answer this, but just smiled slowly and said: "Now do you understand what I mean? We have a saying in China that the hair and skin of the body are influenced by the parents. No matter what your hair color, eye color, or skin color, you are She is proud of it. And some people think that what her parents inherited from her is not noble enough. For such a person, how can you expect her to understand your father's anger at being insulted?"
Xia Shao's words were always spoken in English, and everyone in the store could understand them. Upon hearing these words, many people were stunned. The store was quiet. Only Hu Jiayi swept away the gloom on her face and nodded with a smile. .
At this time, Rosa and her daughter served Xia Shao's table of meals, but they became a little cautious at this time. Hu Jiayi's face now had a smile on her face, "Rosa, Lily, thank you. Xiaoshao, let's eat! Although there are annoying people here, don't let such people ruin our mood of eating. You are right, Some people don’t deserve to make us angry or affect our mood.”
Xia Shao smiled, this girl, she can think of the best.
Julianne, who was being left alone, turned red at this moment. From being exposed to being scolded in a roundabout way without using any curse words, she was extremely angry. She had never suffered such insults since she was a child. She immediately pointed at the table where Xia Shao and Hu Jiayi sat and said to the bodyguard behind her: "They insult me, teach them a lesson!"
"How dare you hit someone?!" Hu Jiayi slammed the table angrily and stood up.
"Miss Xia, please step back first." Bi Fang's expression also changed, and he took a step forward to block Xia Shao.
Julianne ignored Hu Jiayi, but was happy when she saw Bi Fang coming forward, and looked at him with a look of disdain. Even the customers in the store were worried about Bifang. Julianne had four bodyguards, and all of them were strong Western men. One arm was thicker than an Asian thigh, and they were numerically superior. Why? Maybe a rival
"Teach them a lesson!" Julianne ordered again. At this time, she didn't care whether Xia Shao really had any identity, maybe she was just being mysterious! She wouldn't be willing to give up if she didn't say this!
The bodyguard got the order and stepped forward aggressively! Bi Fang narrowed his eyes and raised his feet to meet him.
At this moment, Bi Fang felt his wrist being gently touched. He was startled and turned around in an instant. He saw Xia Shao pressing his wrist veins with one hand and slowly putting down the teacup in his hand with the other. With a light wave, half of the seat next to him was lifted. The closed window seemed to be blown by a strong wind, and opened with a "pop!"!
Julian's four bodyguards were walking this way aggressively. When the window opened, the four of them stopped in a hurry and turned to look at the window! Even the customers in the restaurant all turned their heads with surprised eyes, wondering why the window opened by itself.
At this time, Xia Shao raised his eyes and glanced at the bodyguard closest to him. He raised his hand and sent out a powerful shock. The bodyguard turned his head to look at the window, then his body suddenly shook and somersaulted. Turn it out and smash it out through the window!
The British couple sitting by the bed were dumbfounded. Before they could react, they heard three more miserable howls in succession, and the remaining three bodyguards were also thrown out of the window! The strange thing is that they clearly saw the weak oriental girl moving her hands, but they never saw her stand up.
All the processes are very short and straightforward. Start suddenly, end suddenly.
The restaurant was silent, and everyone's eyes widened.
I thought there would be a fight, but I didn't expect that the two sides didn't even fight, and the tables, chairs, and benches were not even damaged. The person flew out of the window!
God! This is amazing! Were those few blows just now really not caused by the girl's bodyguard? If they weren't blinded, who would tell them what they saw? The legendary Chinese Kung Fu
This girl knows Chinese Kung Fu? !
Compared to the incredible and even fanaticism of the customers in the store, Julianne felt cold from head to toe. Her bodyguard was thrown out of the window, and now she was left standing alone in the restaurant, looking at Xia with horrified eyes. Shao, this is impossible! Those were bodyguards carefully selected by her father for her. They were all boxing masters and could kill people with their fists. How could they lose
Who is this girl
Now, Julianne believes that Hu Jiayi may not be lying. But it's too late. Xia Shao raised her eyes lightly, just an ordinary glance, not even cool, and Julianne sat down on the ground with a pop!
At this time, the door of the restaurant opened and several men in black walked in. The leader was a Western white man, who looked somewhat handsome, and the people behind him were also Westerners, but their dress made the restaurant famous.
"Oh! Triads!" Triads and Anqinhui still have branches abroad. At first, in order to avoid trouble during the Republic of China, some gangsters brought their brothers overseas, and later they became famous. Nowadays, even abroad, many people from business circles, entertainment circles and other social circles have joined in. The overseas branches of the Triads and Anqinhui are not only underworlds, but also Chinese organizations. However, the people who came today are Westerners. It is obvious that they are not from the Chinese organization, but from the underworld.
This handsome man seemed to be well-known in the UK. As soon as he came in, some people's expressions changed, they shrank in fear, they didn't even dare to breathe, and they didn't know how this matter was related to the underworld. Was it the person invited by Julianne? It seems that today's matter will not end well.
But what’s puzzling is that this man walked past Julian, and Julian looked up at him, but he didn’t even look at her. Instead, he walked straight to the table where Xia Shao and Hu Jiayi were sitting, and stood with his hands behind his back. He asked in a gentlemanly and respectful manner: "Miss Xia, is there any trouble here?"
"I don't have any trouble. It's my friend who is in trouble." Xia Shao smiled lightly and said, "This store is opened by my friend. This lady often comes to the store to harass her and is very unpopular. I want to invite Bran Mr. Deli should always take good care of her. If you see this lady in the store again, just throw her out like she did just now."
Brandley is the head of the British Triad Church and is responsible for the training of gang members. This time Xia Shao came to the UK. Because she stayed in a Sanhe Group hotel, Qi Chen sent someone to take care of her safety while she was in the UK. Brandley was the person in charge of this matter. When he came to Cambridge Town today, he had been following behind. He saw someone being thrown out just now, so he came in to take a look.
Brandley is also a well-known person in the British underworld, so those who did not recognize him immediately changed their faces after hearing his name, and looked at Brandley and Xia Shao in shock. .
"Okay, it's an honor to serve you." Brandley nodded gentlemanly. No matter how you look at it, you can't tell that he is a gangster. However, when he turned around and walked in front of Julian, Julian raised his head and saw only the man's condescending and cold eyes, but he was still smiling, "Miss, did you hear this? Our distinguished guest has ordered that from now on you Don’t show up in this store again, otherwise, you will be thrown out.”
Julianne's eyes widened, what, what kind of distinguished guest? Are you talking about that girl from the East
No one answered her. The next moment, Julianne was grabbed by her collar and humiliatingly lifted up from the ground. Two gangsters opened the door expressionlessly. Brandley didn't care whether she was the daughter of the three giants in the British clothing industry. , and really threw her out!
A woman's screams and wailings could be heard outside, but compared to Julian, someone peeked over and saw that her four bodyguards who had been shaken out by Xia Shao's secret power were still lying on the ground.
"I won't disturb Miss Xia's interest in dining. We will wait for you outside." After completing his task, Brandley exited the restaurant in a gentlemanly manner, leaving the room full of surprised and guessing looks.
Xia Shao finished her dinner under the look of surprise and speculation. This meal was invited by Hu Jiayi. When she left, she paid the bill, but neither Rosa nor her daughter dared to accept it. First, they were grateful to Xia Shao for helping their family solve a big problem. Second, they couldn't guess who she was, especially since Bradley called her a distinguished guest, so the two of them didn't dare to accept her money.
Xia Shao was not a hypocritical person. Seeing that the mother and daughter refused to accept her, she smiled at Lily and said, "Okay, then you must ask me to invite you to China some other time. You can just ask me about your grandmother's affairs then." , I will definitely let you help her fulfill her wish."
Lily was stunned. She still didn't know the identity of Xia Shao's Feng Shui master. When she heard what she said, she thought it was a polite word, but she nodded happily and said in very non-standard Chinese: "Okay! Then we have an agreement!"
After leaving the restaurant, Julianne and her bodyguard had left in embarrassment. Xia Shao said goodbye to Hu Jiayi and made an appointment to meet again in a few days if she had time. Hu Jiayi nagged several times, asking Xia Shao to come and play with her when she was free. After getting her guarantee, she let her get in the car and leave.
Seeing the Bentley that Xia Shao was sitting in going further and further away, and Brandley's car following far behind, gradually out of sight, Hu Jiayi turned around and returned to the restaurant. She walked to the middle aisle and searched where Julianne sat on the ground just now. She saw a piece of hair dyed golden with a slightly brown root, and she knelt down and picked it up.
Hu Jiayi held the hair in her hand and looked coldly.
Insult her father, beat her friends, and wait for her!
…
And on the way back to London, in the car.
Bi Fang drove the car with an excited expression on his face, shouting wildly along the way, "Ms. Xia, I can't tell, you are a master! Isn't that what you're doing in your inner martial arts?"
Xia Shao sat in the back and smiled without saying a word, but it was regarded as acquiescence.
"It's so damn exciting! Didn't you see that those people were dumbfounded at that time." Bi Fang's eyes brightened and he said with emotion, "Domestic martial arts is famous now, but it has actually declined. Mainly because most of the masters during the Republic of China are no longer around. Well, there are too few successors in the new generation. The only master of the inner family that I have seen in my life is the leader. I didn’t expect to see another one today! Alas, are you brothers and sisters? Are you the master of the same master? Master? How could it be such a coincidence?"
Xia Shao was stunned, but she didn't expect Bi Fang to be so sharp.
When Xia Shao didn't answer, Bi Fang knew that he had asked too many questions, so he consciously changed the subject and said, "If I hadn't been on a mission, I would have taught those foreign devils a lesson today! Let them look down on the Orientals! But I The bodyguard didn't take action, but let Miss Xia deal with it in a few moments. If I go back and tell them, they will definitely be shocked! You are so secretive! With your skills, why do you need a bodyguard? "
Xia Shao smiled and said, "If I hadn't been on a mission, things wouldn't have been so easy today."
This is the reason why Xia Shao didn't let Bi Fang show up today. Bi Fang is a formally trained agent. Juli Ann's thugs are no match no matter how strong they are. But Xia Shao doesn't want Bi Fang to reveal his skills to avoid being investigated in the future. It's troublesome. Everything is done with the mission first, and it's up to her to solve it quickly.
"Miss Xia, you really should consider joining our profession!" Bi Fang joked. When he said this at noon, he was shocked by Xia Shao's carefulness and eyesight. Later he thought about it, if she was a weak person, it would not be suitable for her to be in this line of work. But when he saw her showing her hand just now, even though it was just a small hand, he knew that he had encountered a hidden master.
"Okay." Unexpectedly, Xia Shao agreed happily this time. Just when Bifang was surprised, Xia Shao smiled and finished the second half of the sentence, "I'll go back and ask your boss to see if he agrees."
Bi Fang's forehead turned green, and he shrank his neck with a bitter look on his face, "Okay, just pretend I didn't say anything!"
…
After returning to the hotel, Xia Shao and Bi Fang learned that the fake Dunhuang mural in the British Museum had not been touched all afternoon. This incident was posted online. When it was learned that the Ladis Group was going to auction a mural of the Third Buddha, people in the country were now furious.
This afternoon, the fake was still on display in the museum. Domestic officials have called on tourists not to get excited and pay attention to their personal safety. This matter is left to the state to resolve. However, some people on the Internet still believed that Ladis's refusal to remove the exhibition was provocation and contempt, so conflicts continued throughout the afternoon, and some Chinese organizations were already applying for demonstrations.
Knowing these circumstances, Xia Shao and Xu Tianyin's team still decided to act according to the original plan and keep pace, because they are the ones entrusted with important tasks, and every decision may affect whether the national treasure can return.
In the evening, Xu Tianyin arranged for Wang Fei, Bifang and Yingzhao to go out to do other things. He stayed in the room with Xia Shao and pointed out the Ladis family manor to her on the map. Xia Shao opened her eyes and tried to look in that direction.
The Ladis family has a history of more than two hundred years. They have a luxurious manor in London with beautiful scenery. It is definitely a place worth visiting. When Xia Shao searched for this manor, she didn't realize how beautiful it was. Her eyes suddenly froze!
"What's wrong?" Xu Tianyin sat behind Xia Shao, holding her waist and stroking her pubic area with his big palm. Although he knew that her vitality was intact, he still gave her some relief. He could sense the change in her aura.
"There is something wrong with the Ladis family!" Behind the main house of Ladis Manor, in a European-style duplex building, the vitality of heaven and earth gathers there. It is invisible to ordinary people's eyes, but Xia Shao can see that these energies are extraordinary. Ordinary, the gathered pattern vaguely looks like a five-pointed star!
"It's like... a magic circle of a five-pointed star!" Xia Shao said while observing.
"Upright? Down?" Xu Tianyin asked succinctly.
"Positive five rays!" Xia Shao confirmed.
The pattern of the five-pointed star can be imagined as a wizard standing between heaven and earth, with his head in the middle, raising his hands and feet on the ground, gathering the energy of heaven and earth for his own use. What is called energy in the West is also called vitality in the East. In fact, the essence is the same. In Western white witchcraft, the five-pointed array is equivalent to the Chinese three-talented array! It embodies the idea of unity between man and nature. The pentagram of white witchcraft is upright, while the pentagram of black witchcraft is upside down.
"They invited the White Wizard!" Xia Shao's eyes changed and he sneered. The five-pointed star formation is equivalent to the three talents formation and is a protective formation. As for the thing that allowed the Ladis family to ask the White Wizard to set up an array for protection, no need to guess, it must be the Dunhuang III Buddha mural! At this time, the only thing that can make the Ladis family be so careful is this huge national treasure mural.
Although she was sure, Xia Shao still wanted to be sure. But just when she was about to use her clairvoyance to look inside the building, she suddenly felt the rays of light coming from the five-pointed star array! The vitality of heaven and earth counterattacked in the direction where she was!
Xia Shao was stunned for a moment, but his Heavenly Eye did not retract. Instead, he looked at the vitality in the formation with interest. Sure enough, she saw those insubstantial vitality rushing towards her direction. However, the hotel she was in was separated from Ladis Manor by more than half of London. The vitality of the five-pointed formation could not even travel so far to hurt her. Ladis Manor fell apart.
Xia Shao sneered, considering the land area of Laidis Manor, the energy of this formation could be chased so far, and the person who set up the formation was considered a master. But there is no one in this world who can hurt her from such a distance, not even Master! In particular, the ability of clairvoyance is an innate talent, and people without a certain level of cultivation cannot feel it. Xia Shao had never met the old count of the Obikris family, and she didn't know if the old monster studied black magic to a terrifying level, but at least she knew that the person who set up this formation was definitely not the old count.
So Xia Shao snorted and continued to look back to confirm.
As soon as she got closer, the five-pointed star array sensed something unusual and swooped in Xia Shao's direction as before. Xia Shao paid no attention to it. He was not afraid of the obstruction of the five-pointed star array at all. His heavenly eye passed directly through the array and looked straight into the room!
Seeing this, Xia Shao was stunned again.
"Did you find anything?" Xu Tianyin lowered his head and looked at the woman in his arms.
Xia Shao suddenly laughed and retracted his Heavenly Eye. When he turned his head, his eyes were bright and he blinked deliberately to tease Xu Tianyin, "Brother, there are so many good things in there! Can we move them all?"
"Hmm." Seeing the woman in his arms turning around, smiling like a little fox, the man showed a dull expression as expected, and then asked, "Want it?"
Without waiting for her to answer, he nodded, "Okay."
Xia Shao chuckled, as if he was entertained, clenched his fist and punched Xu Tianyin's chest, his face became serious, "I'm just teasing you. I don't want those things. One day, those things must be sent back with their own hands!"
Xu Tianyin was stunned for a moment, but seeing that she was serious, he nodded.
And while the two were talking, among the two people who were laughing and chatting in the main house of the Ladis family, one of the blond men's expression changed and he rushed out and went straight to the backyard!
