He stood at the door and looked up at the large characters above the door: Jasmine Club. When it gets dark, the neon lights will light up, shining with dazzling colors. Unfortunately, he arrived too early and the club hadn't officially opened yet, so he couldn't appreciate the dazzling neon lights.
After walking through the door, Qi Xuan and Lian Xiaotian went directly to a room on the second floor. An old gentleman was sitting in front of a piano playing music. There were fruits on the small square table next to the sofa. The old friends present were talking and laughing, and they were very happy.
Qian Yuqiao saw Qi Xuan coming in, stretched out his hand and greeted him , " Are you Qi Xuan? You are indeed a talented person, just like I thought."
Qi Xuan smiled happily and handed the pastry box in his hand to him , " Teacher Qian, this is our first meeting. I'm a little gift. I don't know if you like it or not."
Qian Yuqiao enthusiastically introduced Qi Xuan to everyone. Although his hair was almost white, he looked very young. Wearing a Chinese-style black coat, he speaks clearly and his tone is cadenced, which makes people like him. This old artist, who enjoys a high reputation in the Jiangcheng calligraphy and painting circles, is easy-going and free and easy in dealing with things. He has the temperament of a traveler who likes to go wherever he goes. He indeed often travels to famous mountains and rivers, which can be tasted from his landscape paintings. his character. The ink is strong, free and unrestrained, and is completed in one go.
Qi Xuan took out a draft from his briefcase and wrote down some of his ideas and requirements for the painting.
Qian Yuqiao nodded while looking at it, and immediately agreed , " Okay, great. I am currently creating an autumn landscape painting. I think it meets your requirements very well. Come to my house when you have time and take a look. Are you satisfied?"
"That's great. I'll definitely visit you someday."
Afterwards, Qian Yuqiao invited Qi Xuan and Lian Xiaotian to join their party. I saw several old people showing off their talents. The men played the piano and the women sang. The laughter and laughter were full of memories of youth and praise of a beautiful life. Such a passionate scene ignited Qi Xuan's enthusiasm, and he seemed to become enlightened. The rhythm of distant mountains and flowing water seemed to be heard in his ears. The suppressed emotions in the past few days were adjusted and released, and his face showed joy at the same time. smile.
The artists' party lasted until nightfall. Qian Yuqiao drank a lot of wine during the party, but he had a good drinking capacity and became more casual and free when he was not drunk. Qi Xuan also drank a few drinks with him. Due to the situation at home these days, he felt uneasy and worried about the safety of his father and aunt, so he said goodbye and left early.
Before they even got downstairs, he and Lian Xiaotian heard music coming from downstairs.
"It seems that this paradise on earth is about to be set on fire! Master, thanks to you, I can come here to see everything."
Lian Xiaotian was so happy that he could dance to a song later. Unexpectedly, the enemy's road was narrow, and Tang Yingfei was walking towards him. Lian Xiaotian recognized him at a glance.
"It's you! Master, isn't he the tall guy who kidnapped you?" Lian Xiaotian exclaimed.
Qi Xuan raised his eyes and saw that it was indeed that person. The three of them were stunned. Tang Yingfei looked at it calmly and expressionlessly, and then said with a smile , " What a coincidence! I have never seen you here before. Otherwise, once you get to know each other, , you can always meet.”
"It can only be said that there is a narrow road between enemies. Xiaotian, let's go."
Tang Yingfei touched his nose with his hand and went to find Luo Sai with a smile.
Rossay's office is at the end of the corridor on the second floor. The room is large, equipped with a magnificent desk and a large sofa. When he was tired, he would make do with sleeping on the sofa. After his mother died, he sublet his home to others and lived in the club himself. Yue Xin was afraid that he would not get enough rest, so she specially cleared a lounge on the second floor for him to live in.
"What a coincidence, I just met Qi Xuan and the driver downstairs. Let's bump into each other!"
Tang Yingfei said, putting several materials in his hand on Luo Sai's desk.
When Luo Sai heard that Qi Xuan was in the club, he leaned back in his chair and smiled , " He's not here to see us, is he?"
"It's not like, I think, he doesn't even know I work here."
"Eagle, where do you think this Aunt Shen has gone? Why is there no news at all?" Luo Sai no longer bothered about Qi Xuan, but instead thought about the Qi family's original nanny, Aunt Shen. Back then, his father When he died, it was Aunt Shen and Xiao Qixuan who stayed at home.
Growing up, Luo Sai always thought that his father died because of illness. Once he knew the real cause of his father's death, he began to investigate the Qi family. I retrieved the case files from the police station and asked the old police officers about the situation. Then, he started looking for Aunt Shen everywhere. Rosey believed that only she could see the truth and tell him the truth. What exactly happened to the Qi family on that Mid-Autumn Festival night, and how his father was killed, Aunt Shen was at the scene, and she would definitely be able to tell.
But the difficulty is that Aunt Shen left the Qi family not long after she worked. Luo Sai sent people to look for her in her hometown, saying that she had not been back for many years. In Jiangcheng, no one who went out to inquire got any useful information. Aunt Shen was less than 30 years old at the time, and it was said that she and her husband went to the south. Some people also said that she still stayed in Jiangcheng and opened a restaurant.
"I have visited all the places where you can eat in Jiangcheng, and there is no sign of Aunt Shen at all." Tang Yingfei spread his hands with a look of helplessness on his face.
Luo Sai pouted, exhaled, and then thought of Qi Xuan.
"Go down and take a look. Maybe Qi Xuan hasn't left yet. Give him a surprise!"
At the edge of the dance floor on the first floor, Lian Xiaotian was eager to try. He wished he could quickly find a dance partner and dance a song.
Qin Xiaohuan, who was singing on the stage next to her, was wearing a colorful floral skirt and holding a feather fan in her hand, singing a sad love song affectionately.
Qi Xuan watched silently. He didn't know how long it had passed before a hand gently patted his back. He turned around and saw that it was the girl who had coaxed him and given him an anesthetic that day.
"Master Qi, do you want to dance a song?" Yue Xin asked with a smile.
"I'm sorry, I don't like dancing. Besides, I won't dance with a dangerous person." Qi Xuan said decisively.
"Dangerous person?" Yue Xin laughed , " I am not called a dangerous person, my name is Yue Xin, Yue from Yueyang Tower, the heart of Fangxin."
"I just met your partner upstairs. I didn't expect to meet you again."
"Are you talking about Rosé? Or the tall and mighty one?"
"Rossai is here too?" Qi Xuan asked in surprise.
"Of course, he is the boss here. Me and the tall and mighty Tang Yingfei are all excellent employees of Jasmine Club. What do you want to drink? Drink whatever you want, I'll treat you!"
Qi Xuan's face was full of disbelief. He didn't expect that the dignified owner of Jasmine Club was secretly involved in kidnapping.
"I didn't expect that this is actually the territory of the Mao Shadow Club."
When Yue Xin heard this, she immediately retorted , " Hey, don't talk nonsense. The Maoying Club is the Maoying Club, and the Jasmine Club is the Jasmine Club. We just occasionally help Maoying do things, so don't confuse them."
Lian Xiaotian, who was standing aside, retorted , " I think you are all in the same boat, just working together, why should you be so clear-cut?"
Yue Xin looked at him sideways, touched the red hairpin inserted in her hair, and said charmingly , " Little brother, do you also want to try my anesthetic? What does it feel like?"
After hearing this, Lian Xiaotian stopped talking. Unexpectedly, Yue Xin came over and took his arm , " Let's go, since Master Qi doesn't want to dance, let's dance a song!"
Then, Lian Xiaotian was pulled into the dance floor by Yue Xin, and merged with the intoxicated men and women.
There is no other way, Qi Xuan really has no interest in continuing to appreciate it. I just drank a few glasses of wine, the alcohol content was quite high, and I started to get drunk. He loosened the collar of his shirt, planning to go outside for some air first. As a result, before he had gone a few steps away, he saw Luo Sai and Tang Yingfei walking towards him through the dazzling light and shadow.
"We meet again. Why, come to dance?" Rosé greeted politely.
Qi Xuan sneered, and instead of answering the question directly, he said , " I'm just about to leave."
When they met for the second time, Luo Sai gave him a somewhat different feeling. When he was kidnapped last time, Rosé looked serious and fierce, with an air of arrogance about him. Tonight, Roselle was wearing a suit and tie, with her hair hanging softly in front of her forehead. She looked elegant, chic and suave.
When Luo Sai heard that he was leaving, he smiled and said , " Don't worry, since we have met, how about buying you a drink?"
"I've had a lot to drink just now. If I have a chance another day, I'll invite you to get together in the Peony Garden of the Pearl Hotel. You can enjoy the fine wine there."
"Okay! It's a deal!"
As soon as Roselle finished speaking, there was a burst of noisy shouting from the other end of the dance floor. Everyone's attention was unanimously focused on one place. Qin Xiaohuan and the band's masters stopped singing and playing and stopped to watch the excitement.
The two men seemed to have had too much to drink. One of them got into an argument with his female companion. A waiter went to persuade them, but was scolded by the two men. The waiter is young, can't keep his face off, and can't stand being humiliated. So, he also shouted.
Seeing this situation, Luo Sai naturally went over to dissuade him. I hope the trivial matters will be resolved and everyone will be happy.
Unfortunately, those two men acted like playboys, which made Luo Sai feel unhappy.
"I'm the manager here. If you have anything to say, tell me." Rossay said.
One of the short men didn't give any face at all, and everyone who was a manager or not had to give way to him.
"Are you the manager? Well, this kid is nosy here indiscriminately. He even dares to talk back to him after saying a few words. Fire him! What the hell, a pretty boy!"
The waiter hurriedly defended , " Manager, I saw that he and the lady were arguing so fiercely that it had affected other guests, so I came over to persuade them, but they didn't listen at all and even said some nasty things. I was really angry." Said a few words.”
"This is how I talk to my woman. I scolded her. What's wrong? Ask her if she still wants me to beat her?" The short man grabbed his female companion and grabbed her hard. Her arm hurt, she was sad, and she was scared. She didn't care about her face and couldn't help but cry.
Tang Yingfei was filled with anger when he saw this scene , " You must be itchy when you bully a woman like this!" As he said this, he was about to step forward and teach him a lesson.Luo Sai grabbed Tang Yingfei. After all, in his own club, a fight would have a negative impact."You've scolded me, are you angry enough? If you don't want to cause trouble, please leave now."One of the men wearing glasses raised a bottle of wine and shouted , " The wine is not finished yet. Are you going to let me go?" After that, he brought the bottle to his mouth and took a sip.The girl who was crying on the side tried to push away the short man who was holding her , " Let me go, I shouldn't know people like you!"The short man felt that he had lost face, and his face that was already red from drinking became even redder. He must have had a very hot temper, so he went up and gave the girl a big slap, knocking her down on the sofa.Luo Sai couldn't help i
"It's all because of me. Here, I want to say thank you again."Qi Xuan said seriously , " Besides, there is something I think I should tell you. You have felt cold in your body recently, which is probably caused by Xuanjing. In the past few days, my body has often felt cold, as if there is a layer of coldness in my body. The air flow enveloped me, and I felt that the extremely cold air from Xuan Jing entered my body. Since you were closest to me at the time, you might have been affected as well. "Luo Sai was lying on the bed, looking at Qi Xuan sitting on the stool beside the bed, and for a moment he really didn't know how to express his views on this ghost Xuan Jing."This Xuanjing is really amazing. Do you think it really couldn't save Yingying at that time, or was it unwilling to save her?"Luo Sai's question was also Qi Xuan's question , " I also want to know, but judging from the situation at that time, Xuanjing's energy did help Yingying's soul
Luo Sai asked curiously , " Why did she quit her job? Is it related to the death of Wei Yu and the others?""I don't know, but then I went to elementary school. Once after class, Aunt Shen specially waited for me at the school gate. She said she missed me in her heart and couldn't help but come to see how I was doing. At that time, she said she was going back to town. She went back to take care of her mother-in-law. In the next few years, she would visit me, always at school. ""Is she still in town now?"Qi Xuan shook his head and said , " When I was a teenager, I saw her in a department store. She recognized me at a glance, but she changed a lot. She wore fashionable clothes and looked very young. It was a good time. If she hadn't called me, I wouldn't have recognized her. That was the last time I saw her.""Actually, I went to the police station and checked the file on that case."Luo Sai explained everything he knew to Qi Xuan. Judging from t
Next, Luo Sai told the story of his relationship with Fan Li and Mao Ying.Young Luo Sai returned to Jiangcheng with his mother, and mother and son depended on each other. Luo Sai is very smart but not easy to learn. He wants to get ahead every day. At that time, he, his neighbor Yue Xin, and Tang Yingfei often skipped school together and made trouble everywhere. Later, three good friends who could not be separated from each other entered the society together and gradually accumulated funds. They planned to imitate the famous Little Paris Dance Hall at the time and open a club of their own. But the process was not easy. They encountered many difficulties and obstacles. In the end, they unexpectedly met businessman Fan Li. With Fan Li's help, Jasmine Club officially opened for business.Later, Fan Li secretly established the Maoying Club. He took a fancy to the abilities of Luo Sai and others, and occasionally asked them for help. In order to repay Fan Li for his h
Early the next morning, Yuan'er stood beside Luo Sai's bed, holding a feather duster in his hand and flicking Luo Sai's face.Luo Sai was woken up from her sleep and opened her eyes extremely impatiently. When she saw a young girl leaning against her, her nerves became tense and her body subconsciously moved back.When Yuan'er saw his appearance, she smiled from ear to ear , " Look, I scared you. Am I that scary?""No, how - how are you - this is -" Rossai said incoherently, looking around and found that he was in a completely unfamiliar room."My name is Yuan'er. You drank too much last night, so you stayed the night. Do you remember?"Luo Sai slapped the back of his head hard and shook his heavy head, remembering that he was at Qi's house. He had long known about Yuan'er in front of him. When he investigated the Qi family before, Yuan'er was also the focus of research."Remember, it's all your fault, Master Qi, for entertaining me with a
This scene reappeared in Luo Sai's mind many times. If this was true, Qi Xuan would have to bear the sin of three lives, and from then on, the guilt and self-blame would follow him like a shadow. He had always wanted to find the murderer and avenge his father. However, facing such a reality, he had no revenge at all. Everything he did now was in vain. What was the point?Thinking of this, Luo Sai couldn't help but smile bitterly. He rode his bicycle through the streets. He was sober, but his head still hurt. He was awake, but he still felt like he was in a dream.When he returned to the club, he was ridiculed by Yue Xin and Tang Yingfei."You, didn't you say you wanted to quit drinking? Why did you get drunk with Qi Xuan? You are obviously the kidnapper who kidnapped him, but you brazenly went to his house to spend the night. You are making a fool of yourself!"Yue Xin said a lot of things like a machine gun, which made Tang Yingfei laugh out loud.
Zhao Yingtong couldn't help laughing after hearing Qi Mei's words. It seems that she really doesn't have a good impression of herself, even her words are so sarcastic."Where are you going? I'll see you off!" Zhao Yingtong wanted to leave a good impression on Qi Mei, so he began to be attentive."Go and play mahjong next door." After Qi Mei finished speaking, she looked at him with a smile on her face.There was no way, God didn't give him a chance. This time I caught up with Qi Mei to play mahjong at a neighbor's house. She might have a chance next time. Detective Zhao thought to himself and comforted himself without showing how disappointed he was. He politely said "Thank you and goodbye". When he was about to turn around, he suddenly remembered and asked , " Is Qi Xuan at home?""Xuan'er went to work."Zhao Yingtong showed a friendly smile again, got in the car and left.On the other side, police officer Xiao Zhou, who had completed the
Uncle Lai dressed up in a suit and leather shoes all day long, with brand-name suits and shoes, a brand-name handbag, and a gold brooch on his chest. He was kidnapped by a bunch of newbie hooligans who thought he was a rich man. As a result, Zhao Yingtong found out the truth during the investigation. Uncle Lai was pretending to be fat. He was wealthy in middle age and developed the habit of paying attention to appearance. But now his family is living in poverty, and he and his wife can barely make ends meet. Zhao Yingtong relied on his experience to successfully rescue Uncle Lai.He was reported for selling counterfeit goods and was taken to the police station, where he happened to be in the same holding cell as Rosé.Who is missing, it is Luo Sai and Tang Yingfei.Uncle Lai, Luo Sai and Tang Yingfei, who were sitting on the sofa, obviously did not care about Zhao Yingtong's sharp eyes. They were choked in pain by the thick smoke, their faces were extremely
