Chapter 15
"Since you are Master Shen's apprentice, come here and help me pick out the material. I want to make a new cheongsam." He Manling walked slowly back to Meng Haoxiang's side, gently patted the dust on the shoulder of his coat, and followed the trend with her hands Slid down and took his arm.

Ye Zijin walked over and looked at the two pieces of fabric on the counter, one was gorgeous and the other was elegant. He saw that He Manling's smile was a little cold, a bit unkind, and strange women are often sensitive to it. Out of each other's careful thinking...

Ye Zijin thought for a while, and said: "I think this peony silk can better set off Ms. He's dignified temperament. If it is made into a cheongsam, it will be more noble and elegant, and it also matches Ms. He's identity. Standing next to Boss Meng must be more glamorous. "

He Manling felt a little proud when she heard this, but she didn't show it on her face, she just smiled and said: "You have a good eye, so tell me what kind of buckles should be worn with this cheongsam made of this material?"

Ye Zijin followed He Manling's thoughts and said: "The button with the dragon and the phoenix is ​​very suitable, and it complements the pattern of this phoenix wearing a peony. The peony is the king of kings. Good intentions, Ms. He will definitely come true this year."

Qian Jiang on the side smiled and said, "You girl, you can talk so much that I want to wear a cheongsam, haha..."

He Manling said with satisfaction: "Okay, then I will choose the peony one, please tell Master Shen."

Xiaoyue nodded and said, "Okay, we have Miss He's sizes in our store, and they will be delivered to your home when they are ready."

He Manling was still a little unwilling, and turned to the man beside him and asked, "Hao Xiang, do you think I look good in Peony's cheongsam?"

Meng Haoxiang just responded lightly: "Well, it's pretty good. Master Hua is going to invite Boss Liang to dinner at noon, so I'll take you back first."

He Manling saw that Meng Haoxiang's words were lukewarm, avoiding the important and neglecting the trivial. Although there was a trace of displeasure and helplessness in her heart, there was still a slight smile on her lips, and she said softly, "Okay, then let's go."

After seeing off the honored guest, Xiaoyue breathed a sigh of relief, "Zijin, he is the Boss Meng you mentioned last time, he is really handsome, just standing beside him, I dare not even show my air."

"Oh, I've only heard of him, I haven't seen him before..." Ye Zijin recalled the scene at the flower market that day, and couldn't help feeling chills down his back. It's better to avoid contact with gang members.

The car stopped in front of a bungalow, and He Manling said to Meng Haoxiang before getting out of the car: "Let's go to eat Western food tonight. I heard that there is a new restaurant opened on Xiafei Road. The style and taste are good."

Meng Haoxiang coughed a few times, Qian Jiang understood immediately, and said, "Miss He, tonight my eldest brother will have dinner with the foreign devils from the Public Directorate. You also know that the business of foreign firms has been very busy recently, and there are many entertainments..."

He Manling was a little disappointed, with a stiff smile on her lips, looked down at the red handbag, and said, "Okay, let's go another day, if you cough, drink less alcohol, and I will send someone to bring you loquat paste."

After He Manling got out of the car and walked away, Qian Jiang sighed and said, "Brother, you always use me as a shield. You don't know, little brother, I'm so flustered! I don't understand. Miss He is so nice, you Why is there no pity and pity..."

"Old Wu, let's drive." Meng Haoxiang interrupted.

Qian Jiang had no choice but to give up, lit a cigarette, and put one hand out of the car window.

"Have you found out the origin of the group of people who attacked me last time?" Meng Haoxiang asked suddenly.Last time he went to the flower market alone, intending to buy a bouquet of chrysanthemums in honor of his deceased mother, but he almost succeeded in being attacked by someone. It seems that the other party is very clear about his whereabouts on this special day every year.

Qian Jiang exhaled a circle of smoke, and said: "A few people were arrested, they belonged to the Chao Gang. A few days ago, Duan Lipeng said that he wanted us to spit out that batch of soil. It's fucking nonsense! Our Jin'antang has long since stopped selling soil. , how could he rob Duan Lipeng, that bumpkin's stuff?"

"What's the situation with Feng Li?" Meng Haoxiang's eyes flashed with suspicion.

Qian Jiangdao: "I heard that some people troubled him in the bathhouse a few days ago, and he killed all the killers. That kid actually said that he wanted to destroy the tide gang because he was Hua Ye's adopted son, what an idiot."

Meng Haoxiang said: "Boss Duan's background is low, but the power of the Chao Gang should not be underestimated. If there is a fight, many brothers in our Jin'antang will die. You and the fourth brother first help me pay attention to Feng Li and Boss Liang. not that simple."

Qian Jiang nodded and said: "Well, if we fight with the Chao Gang, that old fox of Liang Xiaochuan will pick up his old poop. The fourth brother and I will keep an eye on this matter. Brother, you have brought a few more brothers when you go out recently. It was really good last time." risk."

"Yeah." Meng Haoxiang looked at the pedestrians outside the car window, and several newsboys wearing felt hats came into view.He suddenly remembered the first time he saw Ye Zijin. She used to sell newspapers on the street like this?For some reason, that pretty face has occasionally disturbed his thoughts recently...
