Chapter 90 The Evil Stepmother of the Republic of China (Twenty-Five) Third Update I am begging for monthly tickets
Gu Qingcheng smiled. Her plan for today was overfulfilled!
Not only did she gain the friendship of Mr. Bayer, she also successfully met Mr. Felix.
And this person seems to be better than Bayer in terms of certain personal connections.
"Today's games are over, why don't we try again tomorrow?"
Gu Qingcheng said to Felix with a smile.
There are a number of races at the racecourse every day.
After all, racehorses are not machines and cannot run forever.
In the first three rounds of six games every day, Bayer relied on his intuition and then lost miserably.
For the remaining three rounds, he followed Gu Qingcheng in betting and indeed won huge amounts of money.
At this time, Mr. Felix came in and wanted to win money together, but it was impossible.
We can only wait until tomorrow! "Okay! Then we have an appointment!"
Felix actively agreed on a time.
Then, he began to ask humbly, "Ms. Gu, how do you choose the champion horse?"
"Of course, I know it's presumptuous. After all, this is a personal secret. But I'm really curious."
Gu Qingcheng had no intention of keeping it secret.
Besides, as for Souma and the like, the technology is there.
Even if everyone knows it, they may not be able to choose the correct answer every time.
In addition to skills, horse racing also depends on luck.
When Gu Qingcheng looks at horses, she relies on vision and intuition.
The double insurance ensured her "complete victory".
“This is how I look at horses…”
Gu Qingcheng carefully told Felix and Bayer about her experience.
The two men listened carefully. Although they were not very skilled, they often lost in bets.
But the two have been hanging around the horse farm for many years and still have some basic common sense.
So, they could hear that Ms. Gu did not hide anything and really told everyone her secret.
Felix and Bayer looked at each other.
Felix: Ms. Gu is really very candid!
Baier: That's right! She is a very good and excellent lady! The two of them became more and more fond of Gu Qingcheng.
At this moment, Ma Yong came over pretending to be surprised.
He acted, and Gu Qingcheng cooperated, "General? You're here at the horse farm too?"
“Haha, yes!”
Ma Yong laughed and greeted Gu Qingcheng while glancing at the two foreigners.
Felix was the first to react: Hey, isn't this the warlord from before? Isn't he a friend of Miss Chen? How come he also knows Ms. Gu?
Felix was curious.
Bayer glanced at Ma Yong and said, uh, I don’t know him! As for Ma Yong’s identity as a warlord, Bayer didn’t care at all.
The Chinese people were afraid of those who led troops to fight, but Bayer was not afraid.
He is confident enough.
In addition to a powerful country, his own network of connections also allowed him to stand proudly in front of the warlords.
However, this warlord seemed to know Ms. Gu, and for Ms. Gu's sake, Bayer paid a little attention to him.
"General, do you know Mr. Felix?"
Ma Yong's sneak glance at Felix was too obvious, and Gu Qingcheng couldn't pretend not to see it.
There's nothing we can do about it, her character is that of a smart and talented oriental lady.
If you appear too slow, you will be suspected of being hypocritical or deliberate.
She still wants to use Ma Yong's power, so she can't make enemies with him.
"Yes! No, I mean, I've heard of Mr. Felix's name and I want to make friends with him!"
Ma Yong nodded first, then shook his head.
He was not sure whether the two foreigners in front of him could understand what he said, so he could not lie rashly.
These foreigners, especially those from country D, are the most serious.
If you are caught lying to someone's face, even if you are just bragging for the sake of face, he or she will hate you.
"Ms. Gu, are you friends with Mr. Felix? Can you introduce them to me?"
Ma Yong lowered his voice and spoke carefully to Gu Qingcheng.
"Mr. Felix and I just met today!"
Gu Qingcheng did not make too much of himself, but told the truth.
On the contrary, Mr. Felix, although not very proficient in Chinese, was able to roughly understand the meaning of the conversation between the two people through their expressions and small movements.
He smiled and said, "Ms. Gu, I thought we were already friends!"
"Did you forget our appointment tomorrow?"
He also wants to make a lot of money by following Ms. Gu.
It's just a friend, haha, who would mind making friends with money, oh no, the God of Wealth? "That's right! Ms. Gu, we are all friends!"
Bayer echoed his friend and expressed his views very positively.
Seeing the two foreigners smiling at Gu Qingcheng, even with a bit of flattery, Ma Yong felt like it was a dream.
How is that possible?
In his opinion, foreigners are all arrogant and domineering people.
But in front of Gu Qingcheng, they, they——
Ma Yong couldn't think of a suitable adjective, he just felt that the scene before him was incredible.
While being shocked, Ma Yong actually felt a faint sense of envy and an inexplicable sense of joy.
Yes, some relationships are supposed to be like this.
Instead of being like Miss Chen just now, who was arrogant to Ma Yong but servile to Felix.
"Sorry, it's my fault!"
Gu Qingcheng admitted her mistake quickly, then said with a smile, "Yes, we are friends!"
She first said this in D language, and then repeated it to Ma Yong in Mandarin.
"Great, Ms. Gu, can you, can you help me?"
Ma Yong rubbed his hands, his face full of smiles.
Gu Qingcheng did not rush to introduce himself, but politely asked Felix's opinion: "Mr. Felix, this Commander Ma is my friend, he wants to meet you, is that okay?"
After saying that, Gu Qingcheng did not forget to explain to Ma Yong, "General, I will first seek permission from Mr. Felix. This is social etiquette, and we cannot be too rude."
Ma Yong didn't think that Gu Qingcheng was taking the opportunity to put on airs.
Ma Yong once heard the governor say that those foreigners were particularly particular.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
What etiquette, what privacy, what a mess of rules.
These rough guys don't understand at all. Sometimes, when they offend foreigners, they don't even know what they did wrong.
It’s best to be like Ms. Gu, who understands foreign rules and doesn’t forget to explain them to him.
With Gu Qingcheng as a comparison, Ma Yong felt that Miss Chen was more and more unreliable.
Just like just now, she seemed to have directly dragged herself to chat with Mr. Felix.
Even if she and Felix were friends, it didn't seem appropriate according to foreign rules.
What's more, Ma Yong saw clearly that Mr. Felix was obviously stunned when he first saw Miss Chen.
He didn't even know Miss Chen, or rather, they were not close! ... This stinky girl, it was obviously her who was bragging and reckless, but she still blamed him for messing up! It was a waste of his endurance for several days, eating bloody steaks and drinking bitter medicine soup.
The more Ma Yong thought about it, the angrier he became. At this moment, he had no intention of marrying Miss Chen at all.
She's such a fool, it's better to marry Ms. Gu than to marry her!
Ma Yong thought viciously.
Felix was also satisfied after hearing what Gu Qingcheng said. He liked people who had a sense of propriety and boundaries.
"Can!"
Felix nodded reservedly.
After getting the other party's permission, Gu Qingcheng smiled and introduced, "Hello, Mr. Felix, this is Commander Ma Yong!"
Then, she said to Ma Yong in Mandarin, "General, Mr. Felix agreed that I should introduce you to him. You can say 'hello' to him or just nod your head."
"General, don't worry, I will help you translate!"
Not being able to speak the language is not something to be ashamed of.
There is no need to be ashamed of this, and there is no need to make a fool of yourself by pretending to know something you don't.
Gu Qingcheng wanted to convey this kind of "confidence" to Ma Yong.
After hearing what Gu Qingcheng said, Ma Yong was no longer so nervous.
He smiled and said to Felix, "Hello!"
"Mud howl!" Felix stretched out his hand entirely for Gu Qingcheng's sake.
Ma Yong had seen the handshake etiquette of foreigners, so this time, without Gu Qingcheng's reminder, he took the initiative to extend his hand.
The two of them shook hands lightly, which was considered as the initial contact.
Gu Qingcheng: ...It seems that I have a lot to learn.
She was well versed in ancient rituals, and her appearance and manners were exemplary.
But she doesn't understand Western etiquette of this era.
Gu Qingcheng is not blindly self-deprecating, but she is not arrogant either.
She is willing to learn all useful knowledge and skills.
Gu Qingcheng silently kept today's mistake in mind, but did not show it on her face.
Several rounds of competition at the racecourse have ended and people in the stands are starting to leave.
Felix greeted Ma Yong, but there was no further communication.
He and Bayer once again emphasized tomorrow's appointment with Gu Qingcheng, and then said goodbye.
After watching the two foreigners leave, Ma Yong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Ms. Gu, thank you so much!"
Finally, I took the first step, and it’s a good start.
Moreover, he knew that Mr. Felix would come to the racecourse again tomorrow.
By then, he could totally have an "encounter" by chance.
As long as Ms. Gu is present, she can always help me turn the situation around.
"General, you are so kind! You have helped me so much, and I have not yet repaid you."
Gu Qingcheng was still wearing a veil, revealing a pair of bright autumn eyes filled with smiles.
"Oh, what's the point of repaying or not repaying? I just helped you..."
Ma Yong saw that Gu Qingcheng did not become arrogant just because she hooked up with a foreigner. On the contrary, she was still very sentimental. Ma Yong immediately felt that Ms. Gu was indeed trustworthy.
He wanted to say something else to bring them closer.
Then an unhappy female voice was heard from far away, "Commander Ma, who is this lady?"
Miss Chen came over with an obvious questioning tone in her voice.
It looked like the legal wife was catching an adulterer.
Ma Yong originally didn't want to bother with Miss Chen, but considering that no matter how useless she was, she was introduced by the governor.
Her younger sister also married the junior military governor.
After weighing the pros and cons, Ma Yong suppressed his disgust and introduced: "Miss Chen, this is Ms. Gu!"
"Ms. Gu! This is Miss Chen!"
