Mahjong

Chapter 13

Tang Shanhai seemed to see something in Chen Shen's meaningful eyes. He sensitively noticed that Chen Shen held Xu Bicheng's hand for two seconds, and Xu Bicheng's eyes flickered, and he lowered his eyes, as if he was avoiding something.

Bi Zhongliang stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation, and said to everyone: "Let's go in and talk while eating."

Li Moqun smiled, "Okay, today's meal will clean up the dust for our distinguished guests."

At the dinner party, Li Moqun raised his glass to celebrate the successful capture of six Chongqing criminals, "It is my new government's great fortune for all my colleagues to step forward and turn to the bright. Do it!"

When everyone toasted, Li Moqun noticed that only Chen Shen was holding a gas bottle.He asked, "Has the barber learned to drink yet?"

Chen Shen said apologetically, "I still can't learn it, director forgive me."

Bi Zhongliang said with a smile: "This kid has such bad manners, he can't drink alcohol, and he can't fire a gun. It's strange, bullets are flying around him."

Li Moqun drank a glass of wine and said, "Zhongliang, you have a lucky general with you."

Everyone laughed because of Li Moqun's words.Only Chen Shen was sitting opposite Xu Bicheng, noticing that Xu Bicheng drank up the wine in his glass, then wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and spit all the wine into the handkerchief.But Xu Bicheng just raised his eyes and glanced at Chen Shen, then turned his eyes away.Chen Shen couldn't help but smiled and looked at Xu Bicheng. He found that Xu Bicheng was wearing a diamond ring on his left ring finger, but it didn't seem to fit the size well, and the diamond was skewed to one side.

Li Moqun thought for a while and said: "Zhongliang, I think, Tang Shanhai has just arrived and is not familiar with the situation here, so you can take him with you temporarily and arrange a place for him."

Bi Zhongliang hesitated for a moment and said: "The captain of the second team happens to be vacant right now, but I don't know...will he lose his talent?"

Li Moqun looked at Tang Shanhai, waiting for Tang Shanhai's answer.Tang Shanhai got up, picked up the wine and filled everyone's empty glasses.He looked at Bi Zhongliang and said: "The position is not important, the important thing is to go the right way and follow the right people."

Li Moqun patted the table and praised: "Well said! Heroes come out of troubled times, congratulations to all the heroes, you have found a bright road!"

Bi Zhongliang smiled, "Thanks to the news brought by Mr. Tang today, we have taken away the six-member military command team, and we can sleep peacefully for a few more days."

Tang Shanhai said humbly: "Director Bi is very polite. I am new here. To show my sincerity, there is always a greeting ceremony."

Chen Shen looked at Tang Shanhai, and saw that he was in a suit and leather shoes, and even a delicate handkerchief was neatly exposed from the pocket of the suit. She looked delicate, with short and clean nails, a matching couple diamond ring on Xu Bicheng's ring finger, and an exquisite luxury watch, and her shirt cuff buttons were shiny.Every detail of this man was impeccable, and his every word and deed showed good breeding.

Chen Shen felt that Xu Bicheng's eyes were also looking at him, but when he looked at her, she lowered her head and drank the soup.Liu Lanzhi, who was sitting next to Chen Shen, also looked at the demure Xu Bicheng.Xu Bicheng obviously noticed that Liu Lanzhi was looking at her, so she smiled politely at Liu Lanzhi.

Tang Shanhai reminded: "On the frontal battlefield, the Japanese army is as powerful as a bamboo. Although the national army has pulled the communist alliance, it is difficult to shake the foundation of the Japanese army. However, the military command makes small assassinations from time to time, so we have to guard against it."

Li Moqun nodded and said, "In recent years, the Hurricane team sent by Boss Dai to Shanghai has made a lot of tricks."

Bi Zhongliang nodded, "In the 28th year of the Republic of China, before the establishment of the new government, Dingmo Village was almost killed by a female spy at the Siberia fur shop on Gordon Road." He thought about the name of the female spy, and then said, " That female spy is called Zheng Pingru."

Li Moqun pointed at the table with his finger and said: "There is a knife on the head of Sezi, Lao Ding is a hero who is sad and beautiful."

Bi Zhongliang continued: "After the establishment of the new government, the winds of the Hurricane Team became more violent. Zhang Xiaolin, the leader of the Youth Gang, was not spared, and even Fu Xiaoan had his head cut off at home."

Li Moqun glanced at the crowd and said: "Everyone should also be careful, the dignified figures in the new government are all blacklisted by the Hurricane Team."

Tang Shanhai held up the wine glass in his hand, and said impassionedly: "Sing Yan City generously, and be a prisoner of Chu calmly; draw a sword quickly, and live up to the head of a young man. A leader like Mr. Wang who takes saving the country and the people as his own responsibility is worthy of our loyalty. Follow me, I will die!"

Li Moqun applauded and said, "Well said. Come on, let's toast to having such a wise leader as Mr. Wang!" Then he turned to Bi Zhongliang and said, "By the way, Zhongliang, and my cousin and niece, also went to In the Hanzhong special training class, just letting her be a wife at home is burying talents. How about letting her go to your general affairs office to seek a job?"

Xu Bicheng raised his glass to Bi Zhongliang and said, "I will ask Director Bi to take care of me in the future."

Bi Zhongliang also toasted and said with a smile: "Take care of each other, take care of each other."

Chen Shen kept staring at Xu Bicheng.At this time, Xu Bicheng finished drinking the wine in the glass, and when she raised her eyes, she finally met Chen Shen's gaze. She did not avoid it this time, and smiled at him, showing her neat white teeth.It's just that Chen Shen didn't expect that Bi Zhongliang would see their meeting of eyes.

After the banquet was over, everyone said goodbye politely. Mrs. Li Moqun invited Liu Lanzhi to play mahjong at her home.

Bi Zhongliang stood beside Li Moqun and asked: "Director Li, how do you deal with the 'Prime Minister' matter?"

After a moment of silence, Li Moqun said: "If the trial is successful, continue the trial. If the trial is not successful, send it to Nanjing."

Bi Zhongliang nodded, "Understood." Then he lowered his voice and said, "But if there is no result, Nanjing..."

Standing not far away, Chen Shen quietly listened to the conversation between Bi Zhongliang and Li Moqun.Seeing that Bi Zhongliang lowered his voice to talk to Li Moqun at this moment, he wisely walked away a few steps and walked not far from Xu Bicheng.Looking at Xu Bicheng from this angle, the wind blew her hair, revealing her beautiful side face, and he couldn't help recalling the past.

Xu Bicheng, who used to be short-haired and pure, turned his head to see him, and gave him a very fresh smile.The beautiful sunset behind her coated her with a layer of gold, and her posture of running towards him turned into a slow motion, she was calling him teacher!At that time, Chen Shen was a little bewildered. He watched her running in front of him bewilderedly. Her hand stretched out from behind and unfolded in front of him. It was a shiny ten-hole blues harmonica.Xu Bicheng showed a row of small broken teeth, and said with a smile, "This is for you." Chen Shen took the harmonica, and Xu Bicheng turned and ran away, leaving behind a string of laughter like silver bells.

Chen Shen was thinking about it, and at this moment there seemed to be a melodious harmonica sound in his ears, it was a song "Tricycle".He was a little sad when he looked at Xu Bicheng, who was in front of him with Tang Shanhai's handsome appearance.He really wanted to say something, but after thinking for a long time, he didn't know what to say.

When Chen Shen came back to his senses, he found that Bi Zhongliang had walked behind him, and said to him: "Chen Shen, drive my car and take Mr. Tang and Mrs. Tang to No. 69, Guofumen Road." The car key said, "Their luggage is also in my car. You can drive the car back tonight and come to my house to pick me up early tomorrow morning."

Chen Shen took the key and said: "Of course!" At this moment, a gust of cold wind blew, Chen Shen saw Xu Bicheng flinched, and he immediately said, "You two go to the car first, in case Mrs. Tang catches a cold, I will call Director Li." Just say hello."

Xu Bicheng's eyes flickered when he heard this, and he lowered his eyes.Chen Shen watched the two of them turn around, and saw Xu Bicheng walking down the steps together with Tang Shanhai on his arm very naturally, and the two left him a handsome and beautiful back.

Chen Shen settled down, went up to greet Li Moqun, and then walked towards Bi Zhongliang's car.He found that Liu Erbao was still standing behind him.At a glance, he caught a glimpse of a button on Liu Erbao's body, and he took out the button he picked up during the day from his pocket and gave it to him, "Is this your button?"

Liu Erbao was taken aback, looked at his front, and took it with embarrassment.Chen Shen smiled and got into Bi Zhongliang's car.Liu Erbao stood there blankly, watching Chen Shen drive away with Tang Shanhai and his wife.

The car is driving on the road that has gradually become silent.Xu Bicheng was a little silent. She saw Chen Shen glance at herself in the rearview mirror of the car, and she felt a little uncomfortable for no reason.She subconsciously leaned against the car window, looked at the city streets outside the window, and kept a certain distance from Tang Shanhai.

She turned the ring that was too loose in her hand, and silently listened to Tang Shanhai asking Chen Shen how many years he had been in Shanghai, and asking why Chen Shen didn't bring his wife along.She listened nervously to Chen Shen's answer, until Chen Shen jokingly asked Tang Shanhai to help him find a wife, Xu Bicheng's eyes flashed.Tang Shanhai glanced at Xu Bicheng, obviously dissatisfied with her silence.

No. 69 Guofumen Road is a small two-story building along the street.Chen Shen stopped in front of the door and took out two boxes from the trunk.Tang Shanhai and Xu Bicheng had already got off the car at this time, and Xu Bicheng looked up at the quiet small building in the dark night.The moonlight shone on her face with a soft light.Chen Shen, who had just picked up the box, glanced at Xu Bicheng, and was also deeply attracted by her beauty.

Tang Shanhai came over to take the box in Chen Shen's hand, "Let me come. Captain Chen has worked hard, so I don't need to trouble Captain Chen. It's late today, so I won't invite Captain Chen to sit in."

Chen Shen let go with a smile, "Alright. The two of you should rest early. I'll leave first."

Only then did Xu Bicheng say, "Captain Chen, go slowly."
