After Tang Xiu and Mu Wanying, who had been silent, left the Baiyan Restaurant, as soon as they got into the car, Mu Wanying smiled and said: "Tang Xiu, I find that the more I come into contact with you, the more unfathomable you become. . I know a little about Baiyan Restaurant. I heard that the headquarters is on Jingmen Island, and there are branches in Shanghai, Beijing, and Hong Kong. The business is very prosperous. But I didn’t expect that you are the owner of Baiyan Restaurant. "
Tang Xiu said: "I am just an ordinary person."
Mu Wanying smiled and said: "If you were an ordinary person, I'm afraid there would be no powerful people in this world. Shengtang Group, Baiyan Restaurant, I'm really curious, how many properties do you own?"
Tang Xiu said: "Just these two."
Mu Wanying shook her head and smiled: "I don't believe it. Therefore, I must have more contact with you in the future and learn more about your secrets. You know! You are the person I am most interested in, bar none."
Tang Xiu said angrily: "Haven't you heard that saying: Once a woman becomes interested in a man, she is not far away from being captured?"
Mu Wanying chuckled and said: "If you are really that good, falling in love is not a bad thing! Maybe, the most important marriage event in this life will be solved like this!"
Tang Xiu shook his head and said: "In today's era, materialistic desires are rampant. Today's people's hearts are impetuous. It is said that beauty is a disaster. In this era, the more outstanding women around you, the more troubles you will encounter. Everything will happen. I don’t like my life. I want peace, a peaceful life, and do my own thing quietly. So, I don’t dare to ask for you, the most beautiful woman in Beijing and the most beautiful girl at Shanghai University. If you want to get married, you should still Go and harm other men!"
Mu Wanying said coquettishly: "Tang Xiu, how come from your mouth, I am like a poisonous snake and beast?"
Tang Xiu smiled and said, "You are better than poisonous snakes and beasts, because you look much more eye-catching than them."
"Pfft..."
Mu Wanying couldn't help but laugh, her branches trembling with laughter.
After a while, she looked at the retreating scene outside the window and asked, "Since you asked that couple to help you find the guqin, where should we go next?"
Tang Xiu said: "A red heart is prepared with both hands. We can't put all our hopes on them. If their old friend's wife is unwilling to borrow it, even if they are anxious and angry, they may not be able to do anything. Then check online. Check it out! See if there is a shop selling guqin nearby."
"good!"
Mu Wanying took out her mobile phone and started to search on the Internet.
Shanghai suburbs.
In the fruitful orchard, Wei Jiangping and Chunxiu had just returned in a taxi when they saw Han Jintong and his wife Yin Yuee at the entrance of the orchard, standing in front of a black Audi car waiting.
"Old friends, I'm sorry to bother you."
Wei Jiangping strode to Han Jintong and his wife and said with a wry smile.
Han Jintong shook his head and said: "Brother Wei, since you are in trouble, we will not stand idly by. Feng Yaoqin has been brought here and is in the car."
Wei Jiangping said gratefully: "Brother Han, I know Feng Yao Qin is Yue'e's favorite thing. It doesn't matter even if you don't want to sell it. He said you can just borrow it for one night."
Han Jintong asked in surprise: "Who is he?"
"Tang Xiu!"
Wei Jiangping sighed.
Han Jintong frowned and asked, "Brother Wei, what is going on? You and your wife went to Jingmen Island to inquire about the Baiyan Restaurant. Did you meet Tang Xiu?"
Wei Jiangping shook his head bitterly.
Chunxiu sighed quietly: "Our couple did not meet Tang Xiu on Jingmen Island. After our investigation, we found that the Baiyan Restaurant on Jingmen Island is really mysterious. Unfortunately, we only investigated a little bit of the situation, and we were found out." The people from Baiyan Restaurant found out. After we repelled the two warning people, we were surrounded by ten masters from Baiyan Restaurant. Ten people, with an average age of thirty or forty years old. Ten of them joined forces and easily Capture us and my wife. And send someone to escort us to Baiyan Restaurant in Shanghai."
"What?"
Han Jintong and Yin Yuee looked at each other with horrified expressions at the same time. They understand the strength of Wei Jiangping and Chunxiu. In today's era, there are probably only a handful of people who can rival the couple. How come they were captured by only ten people in Baiyan Restaurant
this…
Isn't this incredible
Wei Jiangping smiled bitterly and said: "What Chunxiu said is true. With just ten people, our couple were injured and captured by them. In fact, we can feel that the other party's cultivation is not as good as ours. But their moves are fierce , and the killing moves used are very subtle. If it is really a life-and-death fight, I am afraid that the other party only needs five people to do it, and both our husband and wife may be killed in a very short time. "
Han Jintong's heart trembled and he asked: "How many masters are there in Baiyan Restaurant?"
Wei Jiangping shook his head and said: "I don't know. There are more than thirty people surrounding us. Several of them, who seem to be experts with unusual status, did not even take action."
Han Jintong was silent for a long time, and then said quietly: "Originally, we thought that after obtaining that skill, after decades of practice, our strength would be extremely amazing, and there are very few people in the world who are our opponents. As a result, now, Only then did we realize that we were really sitting in and watching the sky.”
Wei Jiangping sighed: "The ancient Chinese country is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, with talents emerging in large numbers. Since there is such an existence as Baiyan Restaurant in the country, I am afraid there are other powerful forces. In addition, if we want to make a breakthrough, it may be difficult to reach the sky. Our couple's only hope now is to be able to see the children she took away in our lifetime."
A gleam flashed in Han Jintong's eyes and he asked, "Brother Wei, do you think if we show our kindness to Tang Xiu, can we..."
Wei Jiangping shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Brother Han, I think you'd better give up this idea. Those people at Baiyan Restaurant are definitely not kind. Besides, if we want to make breakthroughs in our cultivation through Baiyan Restaurant, I think It’s very difficult, unless you pay an extremely heavy price.”
Han Jintong said: "I am unwilling to give it another try. I will see Tang Xiu again if I find an opportunity in the future, hoping to get a chance to make a breakthrough."
Wei Jiangping's expression suddenly changed and he said, "Brother Han, if I remember correctly, your granddaughter and Tang Xiu should have a special relationship."
Han Jintong said helplessly: "Since the last incident, Qingwu's child has never returned home. Even when I called her to ask, she just said a few perfunctory words. I only know that Qingwu was a student when Tang Xiu was in high school. ’s class teacher, now she teaches at Shanghai University and is also Tang Xiu’s class teacher. As for how they get along, I don’t know.”
"kindness!"
Wei Jiangping nodded and said, "Brother Han, I need to go out and deliver the Feng Yao Qin to him. I believe that with his status, he will not lie to others."
Han Jintong said: "Go!"
A commercial street in Shanghai.
Tang Xiu and Mu Wanying searched several more stores, but still couldn't find a good-quality guqin. From Tang Xiu's perspective, although there were a few guqins that could barely be played, the tonal effect would be much worse than expected.
Just when the two were helpless, Tang Xiu received a call from Chi Nan and learned that Wei Jiangping had sent a guqin to Baiyan Restaurant.
"I hope Wei Jiangping is a bit capable and can help me find a good Guqin! Otherwise, I can only buy one at random and deal with it for the night." Tang Xiu sighed.
Mu Wanying still looked calm and calm, and said with a chuckle: "I believe that even an ordinary piano can produce the most beautiful notes after you play it."
Tang Xiu smiled and drove back to Baiyan Restaurant.
In the general manager's office, Chi Nan and Wei Jiangping were standing in front of the sofa, and the guqin was placed on the coffee table. However, the body of the piano was wrapped in satin cloth, so its true content could not be seen.
"Is this the guqin you sent?"
After Tang Xiu stepped into the office, his eyes fell on the coffee table.
With respect in his eyes, Wei Jiangping nodded and said, "I borrowed it from the wife of an old friend. This piano is called Feng Yao Qin, and it was a painstaking work completed by a master violin maker in the former Qing Dynasty. I don't understand Guqin, so I dare not comment on the quality of this guqin."
Tang Xiu came to the coffee table and gently opened the satin fabric. What appeared in front of him was a beautifully crafted and finely carved guqin. He could tell at a glance that the wood was made of golden nanmu.
"Ding… "
Tang Xiu's fingers slid on the strings, producing pleasant notes.
"This piano is just okay."
Tang Xiu nodded, looked at Wei Jiangping and said, "You can leave. Come here tomorrow night to pick up the piano."
Wei Jiangping hesitated for a moment, opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but looking at Tang Xiu's indifferent expression, he swallowed back what he wanted to say, nodded silently, and turned around to leave.
Tang Xiu wrapped the Feng Yao Qin in silk cloth again, picked it up and said: "Chi Nan, if you come to Shanghai University in the evening, after I finish the performance, you will bring this Gu Qin back. In addition, I want to tell you something. , help me find some nannies with good character."
Chi Nan said respectfully: "Yes! I will contact you later."
"Um!"
Tang Xiu nodded, and after leaving the Baiyan Restaurant with Mu Wanying, the two of them did not return to the school directly, but came to the Xinglan Villa area. Because there were still three or four hours before the orientation party in the evening, the two of them decided to take a rest first and have dinner before rushing to school.
Inside the villa.
Mu Wanying answered the phone and said with a smile: "Tang Xiu, tonight's welcome party should be very interesting."
"How to say?"
Tang Xiu raised his brows and asked.
Mu Wanying said with a smile: "I had a friend call me just now and tell me about our Shanghai University New Year Party. Through a special relationship, a leader of the school contacted Zhang Xinya, who is currently preparing for a concert in Shanghai. He heard that the New Year Party will open tonight. The first song is Zhang Xinya’s show.”
