Chapter 339 Dinner Party 2 Who are you looking for?
I thought the fairy in red would leave, but unexpectedly, this person picked up the cut fruit from the fruit plate beside her, put one end into her mouth, and moved towards Qin Run with her body as soft as a boneless snake.
Xiao Hengzhi: "..."
This shameless brat actually flirted with his son in public. He was really asking for trouble.
Unfortunately, he dared not say anything at this moment. Looking at his son who was full of expectations, and then looking at the other men whose eyes were jealous to the point of spitting fire, he could only turn his head and pretend not to see anything.
Qin Run bit the other half of the flesh into his mouth, but did not bite it off. Instead, when the red-dressed fairy who was exchanging glances with him opened her red lips, he took the whole piece of flesh from her mouth.
hiss……
Too much, too much.
How could the Red Fairy do this?!
Why wasn't I the one being "taken care of" by her?
Several "maids" flew over, as if telling the fairy in red not to linger on the beauty on earth and to return to the fairyland as soon as possible.
This group of "maids", all of whom were extremely beautiful, both men and women, surrounded the fairy in red as soon as they came. The fairy in red jumped, and the group flew away. As the "fragmented" stage slowly merged together, several fairies slowly rose into the air and left.
The men who were in charge of pulling and releasing the instruments were sweating from exhaustion. This job was not only physically demanding, but also nerve-racking. It was impossible not to be frightened at this height. In all their lives, they had never seen any music hall dare to do this.
Except for their boss who was so brave.
Although the ends of the red belt were still tied to several pillars, it wouldn't matter if they made a mistake and didn't hold it firmly, but the guests who came today were of extraordinary status. If they really made a mistake and angered Long Wei, they would be in big trouble. So they were always cautious, fearing that if they were not careful, the person below would fall to the ground, which would be disastrous.
After several fairies in red rose to mid-air, the six carved wooden boards slowly closed, and the passage to the upper world was closed.
"Is this the end?"
"It's over, the fairies have gone home."
"No, it's over before I even recovered from the shock?"
"No, I haven't seen enough, fairy, please come back soon!!"
In the audience below the stage, Su Yan was greatly shocked. When the music house was first built, many craftsmen couldn't even understand the blueprints. He invited many masters to come and study together, and wrote to Xu Yunfan, and only then did he figure it out.
The craftsmen didn't even know where to use some of the parts and other equipment brought by Xu Yunfan's escort agency. Therefore, the construction of this music house was time-consuming and costly.
Later, when the music house was put into use, Su Yan had visited it, but the very brain-intensive designs he had made at the time had never been used. He finally saw it tonight.
I have to say that this music house will be very famous in the future, and it is probably the only one of its kind in several countries.
It's halftime now.
I have to rest. I can't just watch the show and not eat anything.
The moving head lights on the stage have been turned off, and the light strips and lanterns in the music hall have lit up one by one.
Guo Minglei suppressed his heartbeat that exceeded the warning line and regained a bit of rationality. He knew that there were some things that could not be mentioned now, otherwise it would incur public outrage.
If he spoke, these men who were bewitched by the red-dressed fairy might do something extreme in anger, which would be disastrous.
Getting angry for a beautiful woman is no joke.
Demonno: "Emperor Yan, I didn't expect that your Great Yan Dynasty has such a wonderful performance." No wonder Xu Yunfan looked down on their Dongwu dance music. There is no harm without comparison.
The other people in Dongwu Kingdom could not understand what was being sung, but they could understand the tune.
No one knew what was in the music hall that could play the music so loudly. The banging and beating sounds were something they had never heard before. It wasn't deafening, but it made their blood boil.
Completely unaware of the uniqueness of the music hall, Fu Qingyu gave an awkward smile and said, "Second Princess, you are too kind. The dancers of Dongwu are not bad either. Their dancing is graceful and elegant, and they also have a unique charm."
"I heard that the blueprints for the layout and construction of this music hall were drawn by Lord Xu. Lord Xu, could you please tell me where all these things came from?"
Demonno was very curious about this. The light strips and the swaying beams were things she had never seen before. She couldn't even imagine that a music hall could be built so dreamy and luxurious. Once inside, it was as if she was in another world, completely isolated from the hustle and bustle of the outside world. No wonder so many people would indulge in pleasure and be willing to spend a fortune here to live a life of luxury.
As Demonno finished speaking, someone shouted, "Look, what is that?"
Fu Qingyu pretended to be curious and looked over, perfectly avoiding the etiquette of responding to Demonno's question.
"Is that a ghost?"
"Fuck you."
"Boss, it's night time now. Haven't you read horror picture books? They all say that ghosts come out at night."
"Fuck you! The picture book also says that ghosts are afraid of yang energy. With so many of us here, how dare ghosts come? Aren't they afraid of being killed by the yang energy?"
"If he's not a ghost, why does he have a black face?"
"Can you guys look elsewhere? Don't you see the human hands on the ghost?"
"Since he's a human, why...ah, it's changed, his face has changed."
The person on the stage was dressed in gorgeous white clothes and a cloak. Although he was not hot, he was holding a fan in his hand.
The man in white on the stage changed his face several times, jumped off the stage, and interacted with the audience below.
A group of young masters were so excited that they started to interact with him. If someone was unhappy, he would pull his cloak and shake it, and the next second, his face would become full of anger.
After the man in white interacted with more than a dozen people, he didn't know whether the dancers and other performers tonight were particularly fond of interacting with Qin Run, so he went to Qin Run again.
Qin Run couldn't see through the angry "mask" who was behind it, so he didn't move for a moment. When the other party tried to grab his hand, he pulled his hand back in refusal, not letting anyone touch him.
The man in white seemed to be hurt by Qin Run's rejection. He trembled, and his angry expression was replaced by sadness. He reached out again with perseverance.
This guy is a bit tactless.
Qin Run was startled, his eyes widened a little, and the man in white let out a barely perceptible laugh.
Qin Run: “…”
It’s Xu Yunfan, this is Xu Yunfan, how could he not recognize him.
Qin Run quickly took the hand of the man in white and squeezed it in his palm. He didn't say anything, just looked at him and smiled.
The man in white seemed to be embarrassed. When the white fan passed by, he actually showed a shy expression. There were two red circles on both sides of his cheeks, which was inexplicably cute.
Qin Run was immediately happy.
"I want one too, I want one too. Hey, come over here too. I want to play too." A child called out.
The man in white didn't even look at the other person. He raised Qin Run's hand, opened the white fan, and when he put it away, several exclamations were heard.
It’s Lord Xu.
The person who just performed was actually Lord Xu.
No wonder, no wonder Qin Run dared to "pull and tug" with a man in public, no wonder this man in white didn't even let other people touch him when interacting with him, but when it came to Qin Run, the difference in treatment was so obvious that he actually took the initiative to hold the other person's hand.
Xiao Hengzhi, who had already raised his hand to slap someone, seemed to feel even more itchy when he saw Xu Yunfan's face.
This kid, he almost slapped him just now. How dare he touch his married brother in front of him?
When he is dead?
Fortunately, he was a little slow in his attack. This kid really deserved to be beaten.
Xu Yunfan kissed the back of Qin Run's hand and looked up at the slap that was suspended above him. "Father-in-law, what do you want to do?"
"You're asking for a beating." Xiao Hengzhi retracted his hand, "Who told you to come up and touch me without telling me in advance? If I don't beat you, who should I beat? Why are you here?" Wasn't he exhausted from diarrhea and his legs weak?
Xu Yunfan chuckled and sat down next to Qin Run. "I'll arrange the program. The lights will light up on their own even if I don't take care of them. I'm really tired." As he spoke, Xu Yunfan took out two big steamed buns from somewhere and started to eat them.
Qin Run: “…”
Qin Run glanced at Xu Yunfan's chest and chuckled. Xu Yunfan was really not wasteful.
He leaned over, and whether intentionally or not, he exhaled his breath on Xu Yunfan's ear, which instantly made Xu Yunfan's body numb. "Why did you change back? Why don't you continue to wear women's clothes?"
Xu Yunfan held a steamed bun in one hand and rubbed his ear with the other. He turned his head and looked at Qin Run with a slightly dissatisfied look on his face. "What are you doing? Are you doing it on purpose? If you have the guts, go back and try again."
Really, Qin Run is a good choice of place. If they were in the room, they would have fought for three hundred rounds by now.
"You haven't answered my question yet." The little prince looked quite pleasing to the eye as he munched on the steamed bun.
Xu Yunfan noticed that Qin Run had been staring at him, so he passed the steamed bun to his mouth and said, "You've been looking at me, do you want to eat it too? I'll give you half of it."
He had already eaten a few steamed buns tonight, which were a bit greasy, but they were all made of white flour, so it would be a pity to throw them away.
Only those who have experienced hunger know the importance of a bite of food.
"No need." Qin Run took a small bite of Xu Yunfan's hand, "One bite is enough."
The two of them ate a steamed bun together, neither of them looking down on the other, which made the others feel uncomfortable. Only then did Xu Yunfan answer Qin Run's question, "My performance is over. Why am I still wearing that thing? I'm freezing to death. But the most important thing is..."
Xu Yunfan smiled and beckoned Qin Run to come closer, "I'm afraid you will fall in love with me uncontrollably."
Qin Run: "...Where do you get your confidence from? Not at all."
"How can you lie to me, brother? You just saw me, and your eyes almost popped out, yet you still said no. You guys just like to say one thing and mean another. No means yes, don't mean yes, don't mean yes, don't like means like, and casual means not casual. I know everything."
Qin Run: "...Okay, whatever you say is true." Anyway, he couldn't win the argument with Xu Yunfan.
Xu Yunfan laughed again, "Don't be so perfunctory."
"Then what should I say? Anyway, nothing I say is right. Do you think I am right?"
Xu Yunfan nodded and smiled, "Ah, yes, yes, you are right."
Qin Run: “…”
"What are you talking about? You are laughing so happily. Can't you see that Guo Minglei's eyes are about to pop out of his head." Xiao Hengzhi glanced in the direction of Guo Minglei, quickly retracted his gaze, and thought to himself, this kid is really making people itch to touch him. He wished he could dig out his eyes. He dared to glare at his brother. He must be tired of living.
Without looking at Guo Minglei, Xu Yunfan guessed, "She's probably angry that the Red Fairy only interacted with Run Ge'er and didn't even bother to look at him, so she's jealous."
"Hmph." Xiao Hengzhi snorted, "Then... why don't you let him interact with other people instead of just catching Run Ge'er?"
Xu Yunfan spread his hands innocently, "Father-in-law, you are so ignorant. I am already married. If Runge gets angry and ignores me, I will be finished."
As he spoke, Xu Yunfan stole a glance at Fu Qingyu, who was sitting opposite him. "Father-in-law, do you think the Emperor would be interested in my music troupe? Look at him, he seems very interested."
Xiao Hengzhi rolled his eyes and thought to himself, everyone here would probably be interested in everything tonight.
In the past, he had been to many places and was a regular customer of the largest and most luxurious music hall in the capital. He had to admit that their music hall was not even one ten-thousandth as good as Xu Yunfan's.
At the same time, Xiao Hengzhi once again realized that Xu Yunfan was not a simple 18-year-old boy. He seemed unreliable. He loved to go out of town to look for wild goods every day when he had free time. He did not do his work well and spent his working time slacking off...
But even such unreliable people think much more than others and see farther.
If Xu Yunfan did not take the path of imperial examination to become an official, it would be obvious that he would not be able to protect this music house, this food city, or even the factory building in the suburbs.
Take the music house for example. To be able to open such a large music house in the capital, there must be someone behind the owner. After Xu Yunfan opened this music house, he robbed countless customers from others. He earned money in one night that others could only earn in several days or even half a month. If Xu Yunfan did not have some status, I am afraid that this music house would have changed hands long ago.
When entering Beijing, Xu Yunfan did not expect that Run Ge'er would recognize himself or Qin Feiyu. He opened a shop and asked the shopkeeper to deliver charcoal to Xie and Lin's families every month. He also agreed to borrow money from Lin Xiaoran and others' family.
Everyone outside knows that Xu Yunfan and Lin Xiaoran are brothers and have a very close relationship. Now that they are tied together, anyone who dares to target Xu Yunfan must think carefully about whether the companies behind him are someone they can afford to offend.
Who made Zuo Xiang and his family borrow money from Xu Yunfan? If Xu Yunfan's property was robbed, they would lose everything.
Even if the Xiao and Qin families did not exist, from the day he decided to establish the Food City, he had already prepared plans to deal with possible events in the future.
Not every teenage man can think so far ahead and take every step carefully.
Xiao Hengzhi looked at Xu Yunfan, then at Fu Qingyu, "Even if he takes a fancy to you, so what? You're not nervous at all. I don't think your father-in-law needs to intervene."
Being able to interfere in the salt business, Xiao Hengzhi couldn't help but wonder whether Xu Yunfan had met Fu Qingyu privately, or even had a close relationship with him.
"Master Xu, you are here too." Several Dongwu men waited until Xu Yunfan had eaten and drunk his fill before speaking to him.
Xu Yunfan: "You have to come. I have to come and arrange the program. How about the food that the music club prepared tonight?"
"Very good, the fish is delicious, and the drinks are tasty too. Lord Xu, this music hall is really great."
"Yes, no wonder Lord Xu didn't pay much attention to the performance prepared by our Dongwu Kingdom at the Imperial College that day. It turns out he has seen better ones."
The dancers in Dongwu Kingdom are still very beautiful. Each place has its own unique characteristics. Xu Yunfan glanced at Demonno and said, "Well, that's not the case. The dance music in Dongwu is also great. You have come from afar, so you must eat and drink well. Order whatever you want."
Anyway, Fu Qingyu was paying the bill, so Xu Yunfan was not polite at all when he got generous.
Demonzagi, who was sitting next to Demonzali who only knew how to eat, also glanced at Xu Yunfan and lowered his head silently. Thinking of last night when the second brother and others returned to the inn happily with a bag of candy, he couldn't stop smiling and kept praising Xu Yunfan for being able to do this and that. Not only could he make candy, but he could also draw with sugar. He was really amazing.
Drawing with sugar?
That's bullshit!
Has this person become so extravagant?
Sugar is such a precious thing, how can it be wasted like this? I heard that the sugar produced by the sugar factory is not enough to sell, and he is actually wasting it like this, what a waste!
But when the second brother took out a candy painting, Zhaji suddenly realized that this was what the so-called sugar painting was like.
The sugar needed to make a sugar painting is definitely not worth one or two taels of silver, but a sugar painting is worth one or two taels of silver.
Damn it, Xu Yunfan knows how to do business. He made sugar something that most people can't afford.
Zhaji was very curious and asked the second brother how the sugar painting was made. However, the second brother, a foodie, didn't know anything and complained, "Master Zhaji, why does Dongwu have such a sugar factory? If we had a sugar factory too, wouldn't we have to worry about not having sugar paintings to eat?"
Thinking of the conversation with Lao Er and the others last night, and watching the music hall tonight, Zhaji couldn't help but feel excited. If he could get along well with Xu Yunfan, they could open such a music hall in Dongwu together and make him a lot of money.
"Uncle, why are you staring at Lord Xu?" Zhali asked, wiping his mouth.
"Nothing." Zhaji shook his head. "Third Young Master, why haven't you gone to see Master Xu during this period?"
De Monzali: "Uncle, I can't go even if I want to. You know that Prince Ye is watching me very closely."
"Heh." Zaji chuckled, revealing how little credibility Demonzali's words held. "But how come I see the Third Young Master and Young Master Sifan inseparable every day? They even go out to play together? I think the Third Young Master is having so much fun that he doesn't want to leave."
De Monzali was speechless. He had no way of refutating this statement. After all, facts spoke louder than words.
That's right, during the time he was in the Ye Mansion, apart from the initial dissatisfaction with being suddenly "invited", he later lived well, ate well, and Ye Sifan took him out to play every day, so he really couldn't remember who Xu Yunfan was.
"By the way, you seemed to be looking for someone just now. How come, have you made any friends during your time in Beijing?" Zhaji was obviously asking a question he already knew the answer to, with a half-smile on his face, which made Zhali dare not look him in the eye for no reason.
Zali panicked and wanted to cover Zaji's mouth. He looked at Demonno with a guilty conscience and found that Demonno didn't seem to notice him. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Uncle, don't talk so loudly. I'm not looking for anyone. I don't even know anyone. Who can I look for? You must be thinking too much."
Suddenly, Zhaji's expression became complicated, and he exhaled sharply, "If there's no, then there's no. Why did Young Master insist on this? Don't you know that overemphasizing will only make things worse?"
