Republic of China Tycoon Reborn

Chapter 293: Mei Lanfang in the Rain

This news not only shocked Du Yuesheng, but also shocked everyone, especially everyone involved in this incident. The impact was even greater. Lu Yongxiang's death heralded that everything would start again. It will all become confusing.

Du Yuesheng was thinking about Lu Yongxiang over and over in his mind. He didn't understand who killed him. He was killed in the Marshal's Mansion under heavy guard. How was it possible? Who did this? Is it possible? It's Wang Tieqiao, no, Wang Tieqiao has been employed by the Red Gang, it is impossible for him to do such a thing, unless, unless he repented, but, is this possible?

Du Yuesheng only knew that Lu Yongxiang died, but did not know the circumstances of his death. He died very strangely. He did not die from a gunshot, but his throat was sealed with a three-inch long dart, which directly cut off the carotid artery and bled. The assassin's figure was like a ghost. Not only did he kill Lu Yongxiang, he also broke the window and escaped. Guards all over the room opened fire. Although they hit him three times, there was no trace of him left. He was shot, and all three shots were hit by stray bullets flying across the room, not by aimed shots.

No one present knew who this mysterious assassin was. His stunning blow deeply shocked everyone's heart. The silver light emitted by the dart around Lu Yongxiang's neck was particularly chilling.

After Lu Yongxiang's death, the Zhejiang Army was leaderless. Not to mention marching into Shanghai, it began to show signs of dispersion. The news reached the central government immediately. Duan Qirui couldn't sit still. The Zhejiang Army was his support. Now When the Zhejiang army was in chaos, how could he not be anxious?

Sun Chuanyi also heard the news immediately. After learning about the incident, his first reaction was: This incident has a lot to do with Du Yuesheng, but he did not move after all. Now that Lu Yongxiang is dead, he and the Zhejiang Army There was no need to get so close. After all, the central government's President Duan had never contacted him. Besides, if the Zhejiang Army didn't arrive and Lu Yongxiang didn't come, Shanghai Beach would still be dominated by his Shanghai Army and the Green Gang. Why does he need to provoke Du Yuesheng at this time?

Now he can only have one attitude towards Du Yuesheng: not to provoke, not to be close to her, and not to show any hostility. Everything will be discussed after the situation becomes clear.

Du Yuesheng is not sure whether the crisis has been resolved, but now it seems that it is. This is a bit ridiculous. How could Lu Yongxiang be suddenly killed? He said it was a good thing, but he had no intention of getting to the bottom of it.

This night was strangely quiet and peaceful. Du Yuesheng had not enjoyed this kind of tranquility for many days, but peace was peace, and he did not dare to be too ostentatious. Now, no one involved in this matter dared to be ostentatious. , everyone is waiting and watching. As the situation becomes unclear, no one dares to relax.

In the evening, inside the main hall of Du's house.

"Where did Yuesheng go?" Chen Junrong asked Liu Junda. After dinner, Du Yuesheng disappeared. It was now ten o'clock, and she became worried. After all, she had to worry about such a delicate situation.

"This,," Liu Junda had some hesitation on his face. He looked outside. The weather outside was very unpleasant. There was a violent storm last night, and tonight a cloud blew from nowhere, and it started to rain heavily again. Light rain, such weird weather, can only happen in Shanghai.

"Say," Chen Junrong said angrily. Looking at Liu Junda's expression, she knew that Du Yuesheng was not in danger outside, but why didn't he tell her why he went out? He kept something that even Liu Junda knew from her.

"I'm looking for Meng Xiaodong," Liu Junda mustered up the courage to say it.

"I guess so," Chen Junrong sighed. Last night, they gathered around the Haiqiao Hotel. At dawn, news came that Du Yuesheng had escaped. This news was sent by people lurking in the Shanghai Army. After the news, they immediately withdrew. Huang Jinrong didn't understand why Chen Junrong and Song Sanxi left so quickly, but they insisted on leaving, and he couldn't say anything, so he left with them.

After returning, Meng Xiaodong insisted on going home, which was beyond Chen Junrong's expectation. In this situation, how could she be left alone there? Chen Junrong even thought about bringing Meng Hongqun here, otherwise, If something went wrong between them, how would he explain it to Du Yuesheng?

But Meng Xiaodong's stubbornness was far beyond her expectations. No matter what she said, she was so determined that she had to go back. Chen Junrong had no choice but to send her back, and then ordered Song Sanxi to find some smart and capable people. Her brother secretly protects her.

Meng Xiaodong took Meng Siyuan away, but Mei Lanfang didn't even look at her, and Mei Lanfang had no intention of talking to her. In fact, since she woke up, Mei Lanfang has been sitting on the chair in despair, not knowing Chen Junrong didn't know what he was thinking or even when he left.

Chen Junrong looked at the drizzle outside and couldn't help but sigh: "Forget it, never mind, let him go. The two of them have to say something for the rest of their lives. By the way, he went alone again."

The last sentence was a question to Liu Junda. Liu Junda shook his head: "No, how can everyone trust him to go alone now? There are many brothers protecting him in the dark. It will be okay."

In Mengzhai, Du Yuesheng's car was slowly approaching. Yuan Shanbao was still driving. It was not far from the door. Du Yuesheng told Yuan Shanbao: "Turn off the lights. Driving at night is too conspicuous."

The car lights were turned off and the car slowly approached Meng Zhai in the dark. Yuan Shanbao suddenly exclaimed: "Ah, there is someone at the door. Who is it?" Du Yuesheng took a closer look and saw that there was indeed someone standing at the door. The man was in a suit and leather shoes, not Mei. Who is Lan Fang?

At this time, Mei Lanfang held an oil-paper umbrella and stood quietly in front of Meng's house, neither opening her mouth nor knocking on the door. It looked like she was ready to stand there for a thousand years.

"What's he doing here again?" A hint of disdain appeared on Du Yuesheng's face: "I'm working hard, but he wants to come here and get a bargain. Hey, it's better to talk than to be able to do something."

Yuan Shanbao patted the steering wheel: "You're welcome this time, I'll just go down and pick him up. Hey, with his small body, I can pick up two of them,"

"No," Du Yuesheng waved his hand: "Just wait and see what happens and see what he is going to do."

The two people in the car were watching, and a person in front of the door was standing. Xiao Yusisi had no intention of stopping at all. Time passed minute by minute. Du Yuesheng was very patient, but Yuan Shanbao couldn't sit still. It's been more than half an hour. Aren't Mei Lanfang's legs sore?

"Xiaodong," Mei Lanfang finally spoke, which shocked Du Yuesheng and Yuan Shanbao.

Mei Lanfang did not yell. Although his voice was high, he was very calm: "I thought for a whole day and finally learned courage and responsibility. From then on, I am no longer an indecisive person. I think I will I can protect you well,"

There was no movement at the door, and Mei Lanfang shouted again: "Xiaodong, give me a chance,"

The door opened with a creak, and it was not Meng Xiaodong who came out but Meng Siyuan. A rare seriousness appeared on Meng Siyuan's face: "Boss Mei, please go back. There was a big change last night. The young lady is in a bad mood. Why do you have to force her?"

Mei Lanfang shook her head: "These are two different things. I am not forcing her, but asking her to forgive,"

Meng Siyuan shook his head: "It's raining outside. How about you come and sit in my room?"

Mei Lanfang smiled miserably: "If Xiaodong doesn't welcome me, why should I go in?"

Meng Siyuan said nothing more, turned around, sighed and left. When leaving, he did not close the door again, but left it open. The scene inside the door was unobstructed. Meng Siyuan walked towards the main hall. , seeing him go in, Mei Lanfang knew that he was there to intercede for herself, so his heart became hot again.

About ten minutes later, Meng Siyuan came out again: "Miss said, you are right, the fault is not yours,"

Mei Lanfang's eyes flashed: "She forgives me,"

"You are right, there is no such thing as forgiveness or unforgiveness," Meng Siyuan quoted Meng Xiaodong's words: "This is how it should be. You go your way, she crosses her bridge. From now on, there will be no more What intersection,"

Mei Lanfang was stunned, and Meng Siyuan said nothing more. When Meng Xiaodong was in trouble just now, Mei Lanfang's calmness and composure made him feel very unhappy.

He retreated again, and this time, he closed the door. The wooden door closed with a creak, closing the last trace of contact and affection between Meng Mei.

Mei Lanfang still didn't leave, but he never spoke a word again. He just stood quietly in the rain, motionless.

"Yue Sheng, what should we do? We can't hang out here with people named Mei," Yuan Shanbao complained.

Du Yuesheng shook his head: "Just stay here with him. I want to see how energetic he is."

So they stayed with them. Du Yuesheng fell asleep in a daze. He didn't know how long he slept. Suddenly his head tilted. When he tilted his head, he was immediately awakened. It was still raining outside, and Mei Lanfang was still there. Stand.

He looked at his watch and saw that it was already four o'clock in the morning. It would be dawn in another hour. Yuan Shanbao beside him was already snoring loudly and evenly.

Suddenly, Mei Lanfang moved, and he let out a long sigh, his words full of sourness and helplessness: "Xiaodong, take care," and after saying that, he kicked away in the rain, and Du Yuesheng's lips raised a smile: "You are so capable, you stood almost all night,"

Mei Lanfang left, and these four words were the last conversation between them. From then on, he and Meng Xiaodong really lived their own lives, and they never had any contact with each other again. Meng Mei joined forces, and there was no more. Many theater fans lamented over this.

Du Yuesheng reached out and lowered the backrest of the chair. He wanted to take a rest. The backrest creaked, and Yuan Shanbao woke up from his dream: "Who, what's going on?"

"Brother Yuesheng," Yuan Shanbao saw that it was Du Yuesheng who made the sound, and his tense mind could not help but relax again: "The person surnamed Mei is gone, let's go in."

"Forget it, they are sleeping." Du Yuesheng was not sure whether Meng Xiaodong would be able to sleep tonight, but he thought it would be better not to disturb him. He looked at his watch and said: "Let's make do, we'll be there Let’s squint a little longer in the car, I’ll see Meng Xiaodong tomorrow morning, let’s go back,”
