Chapter 89: The Evil Stepmother in the Republic of China (Twenty-four) Second update, please subscribe
Felix almost "walked away", leaving Miss Chen and Ma Yong looking at each other in bewilderment.
Miss Chen's face flushed red.
Family knows family affairs, and she knew very well that her "friendship" with Mr. Felix was something she had forced upon herself.
They can't even be considered friends.
Moreover, the communication just now was not pleasant. She had no conversation skills, was not proficient in foreign languages, and she did not translate for Ma Yong in time.
This made Ma Yong make a fool of himself.
However, Miss Chen will not reflect on her mistakes, she will only vent her anger on others.
She glared at Ma Yong in shame and annoyance, and complained angrily: "Commander Ma, I was introducing you to Mr. Felix, you could just say hello, why did you say 'choke to death'!"
Choking to death.
It was completely irrelevant and it just messed up everything.
How could it be easy for a young lady like her to take the initiative to chat up with a foreigner she didn't know? Ma Yong, a rough man, didn't cherish her and even wasted the opportunity she had finally fought for.
Humph, what an idiot you are.
He is not capable of accomplishing anything, but is more likely to cause trouble.
Miss Chen turned the "cold treatment" she received from Felix into a lot of negative energy and dumped it all on Ma Yong.
Ma Yong also felt very regretful.
Oops, blame me!
It’s all my fault!
Even though he clearly didn't understand, he still spoke foreign words to please others.
Choked to death! Choked to death! The foreigner was choked away.
"Blame me! Miss Chen, it's all my fault! I—"
Ma Yong is a straightforward man. If he does something wrong, he will admit his mistake quickly.
He didn't know that Miss Chen was taking her anger out on others.
He just thought that he had really made a mistake and offended the foreigners, causing Miss Chen to suffer the consequences.
"What's the use of blaming you? Mr. Felix is gone!"
When Ms. Chen saw that Ma Yong took the initiative to admit his mistake, she did not let the matter go.
Instead, she was a little relentless.
Ma Yong: …
He is a grown man and a commander.
It is not easy to be able to sincerely admit your mistakes in front of a little girl.
result--
Ma Yong, who didn’t have a good temper, instinctively wanted to lose his temper.
However, thinking that Miss Chen knew a foreigner and that he still needed her help, he forced himself to suppress the anger in his heart.
But he still couldn't look Miss Chen in the face calmly, and his eyes began to look around.
Then, he saw another incredible scene——
Felix, who had just walked away from them with a wave of his sleeves, was actually talking and laughing with Gu Qingcheng.
Ma Yong rubbed his eyes again, then widened his eyes and looked over there.
It wasn't a dream, and I wasn't seeing things.
Felix didn't talk to the foreigner next to Gu Qingcheng, but chatted and laughed directly with Gu Qingcheng.
While the two were talking, they did not forget to gesture in the direction of the track.
"Commander Ma, I will try to talk to Mr. Felix later. Don't interrupt me then!"
Miss Chen also saw Felix walking in the direction of Bayer.
She didn't take Gu Qingcheng seriously at all and just thought that she was going to find Bayer.
She yelled at Ma Yong, and then the shame and guilt she felt went away.
She tried to show her "social skills" to Ma Yong again.
Although Miss Chen disliked Ma Yong in every way, she knew in her heart that Ma Yong was her best choice.
If her marriage to Ma Yong fails, her family might give her to other warlords.
And those people are either older than Ma Yong or have many wives and concubines.
If she gets married, she can only be a concubine.
Miss Chen herself is a concubine's daughter and has lived under the shadow of her stepmother since childhood.
The only opportunity for her to go abroad was because her legitimate sister was going abroad, and she was chosen by her stepmother to serve her.
Miss Chen is extremely obsessed with her legal wife and legitimate children.
She swore that she would never be anyone's concubine even if she was beaten to death.
Ma Yong is a ragtag commander who has money, soldiers and is good at fighting. He is not too old and the key is that he is willing to marry in a formal way.
For the sake of her title as "the Commander's Wife", Miss Chen was willing to try to curry favor with Mr. Felix.
"No!"
Ma Yong stared at Gu Qingcheng for a while, and a glimmer of hope appeared in his eyes.
He had an inexplicable feeling: Ms. Gu was more reliable than Miss Chen! Ma Yong had an idea in his mind, so he left Miss Chen behind and strode towards the location of Gu Qingcheng and the others.
Miss Chen: …
What happened? Didn't Ma Yong, a rough guy, always treat her like a fairy? Moreover, Miss Chen knew very well how eager Ma Yong was to meet foreigners.
She was the only person he knew who could help him.
He just held back his anger and apologized to me, why did he suddenly turn hostile now? Miss Chen was shocked and frightened, but she still took a few quick steps and caught up with Ma Yong.
"Ms. Gu!"
Ma Yong's face was full of smiles, as if he had just seen Gu Qingcheng.
Gu Qingcheng turned her head and showed a surprised expression at the right time, "General? Hello!"
In fact, Gu Qingcheng had keenly noticed Ma Yong and Miss Chen as early as after they came to the stands.
However, the other party did not greet her, and Gu Qingcheng did not take the initiative.
Everyone has their own plans, and Gu Qingcheng will not disturb them rashly.
Gu Qingcheng knew what Ma Yong wanted.
But the problem is that she has only just met Mr. Bayer and they don't have any real friendship yet.
Gu Qingcheng didn't want to easily destroy the "friendship" between the two of them.
It is better to wait until she has a deeper relationship with Bayer and those foreigners before she tries to find a way to make connections for Ma Yong.
Gu Qingcheng has a very clear and definite plan for her "career".
She had already planned how to take each step.
Today's trip to the horse farm is very important, and Gu Qingcheng doesn't want to cause any trouble.
Let's not disturb each other for now and be busy with our own plans.
Thinking this way, Gu Qingcheng put Ma Yong aside for the time being.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Then, Mr. Baier's good friend Felix ran over.
"Bail! You, you came to the horse farm again? What, do you still have money?"
Felix was also helpless towards his good friend Bayer.
Nine times out of ten, you lose when you gamble. You come to the racecourse every week to give away money.
Even though I’ve lost so many times, I still haven’t learned my lesson.
Everyone advised him not to trust his intuition, because his crappy intuition is always wrong, okay?
But this guy just won't listen.
I lose everything every time and get an advance on my salary every month.
If he couldn't make some money by acting as a matchmaker, his life would probably have really fallen into hardship.
Bayer is a very nice person and very sincere to his friends.
He doesn't smoke or drink, and apart from his love of horse racing, he has no other shortcomings.
Therefore, a good friend like Felix, despite expressing all kinds of dislike for Bayer, is still willing to treat Bayer as a good friend.
"Haha, Felix, you guessed wrong this time!"
"Of course I have money in my wallet. Hahaha, my friend, you don't know, I won three rounds today!"
Bayer's face was beaming with joy when he mentioned "winning money". His usually serious face was also filled with smiles.
Mr. Felix's eyes widened, and he pointed at Bayer in a somewhat inappropriate manner, "You, won money? By betting on horses?"
To be more precise, was it because of Bayer's damn luck?
Felix subconsciously didn't believe it.
He looked up at the sky and said, "It's not even dark yet, why are you talking in your sleep?"
"Still...my friend, I know you want to win, but you can't have any illusions about it."
He was almost saying that his friend had started daydreaming and talking nonsense because he was so eager to win money.
BAYER: ...
Her face turned red again.
This time I wasn't excited, but angry.
"Felix, am I really so useless in your eyes?"
Well, he did have a lot of bad luck when it came to betting on horses.
But things are different now.
He has Ms. Gu.
This guy is a real horse racing expert!
Thinking of this, Bayer forgot to be angry with Felix and instead actively introduced, "Felix, this is Ms. Gu!"
"Ms. Gu! This vicious-mouthed fellow is my college classmate. We both studied at the Medical College in Heidelberg."
"After graduation, I chose to be a teacher, and he became a surgeon."
Bayer introduced Felix with a look of disdain, but his tone was very intimate.
Therefore, from this we can hear that he has a very good relationship with Felix.
Gu Qingcheng is such a perceptive person that she noticed this immediately.
And Felix was also a little surprised that his good friend actually spoke to the oriental woman in front of him who was dressed in conservative clothes in such a tone.
This is something that only happens between friends.
For the sake of his friend, although Felix was a little arrogant, he still bowed slightly, gently raised his hat, and greeted politely: "Ms. Gu, hello!"
He was very considerate of Gu Qingcheng and spoke in Chinese, but his tone was a bit stiff.
Gu Qingcheng performed a curtsy salute full of ancient charm, "Hello, Mr. Felix!"
But she used standard D language.
Felix's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at Gu Qingcheng in surprise——
She was wearing old-fashioned clothes, and I originally thought she was an ignorant, decadent woman with bound feet.
I never expected that he could speak D.
He subconsciously turned his head and glanced at Bayer.
Bayer looked very proud, as if to say: You are surprised! Haha, Ms. Gu is a very magical lady! She can always surprise people and perform miracles!
"Bail, are you saying that it was Ms. Gu who helped you win the horse race?"
"That's right! Not only did I not lose money today, I actually made a lot of money!"
Bayer was so proud that he forgot his usual reserve and calmness, and he even wanted to use a loud speaker to announce his achievements to the world.
When Felix saw his friend like this, he knew that he was probably not lying.
He looked at Gu Qingcheng again, his eyes also full of burning passion——
Well, although he didn't lose nine out of ten times like Bayer, his losses were roughly equal to his wins.
But horse racing is about making money, not about achieving balance.
He also wants to make a lot of money.
"Ms. Gu~~~"
There was a clear intimacy in Felix's voice, and even a hint of flattery!
