Chapter 137 A Reckless Man Plays Military Strategy
When we arrived at the restaurant, Nanchun was still in a bad mood.
In fact, just like Bo Song said, getting angry is really useless. Now that he can't even protect his family, where can he get the strength to compete with the long guns and cannons?
What can I do?
Protect those treasures like Zhongliang and Grandpa?
is that useful?
Bai Xun took his hand and whispered, "Order whatever you want. The steak here is tender and tastes great."
Nanchun nodded somewhat dejectedly.
The restaurant was beautifully decorated. Crystal chandeliers on the ceiling cast a soft, warm glow. The tables were neatly arranged, each covered with an inky blue tablecloth and topped with exquisite cutlery.
"Eat as much as you want, I am sincere." Bo Song said with a smile.
Nanchun curled her lips and said, "Master, don't feel bad later. I'll order something expensive!"
"Okay, you order. I'll let you order anything." Bai Song curled the corners of his lips.
When the menu came, Nanchun didn't recognize anything.
A string of foreign words, like ghostly scribbles.
Nanchun glared at Baisong who was trying to hold back his laughter, and handed the menu to Baixun.
Bai Xun spoke foreign languages fluently and communicated with foreign waiters.
This surprised Nanchun very much.
When did Bai Xun learn foreign languages?
"Well! Are you devoted to your wife now? You even specifically order expensive food." Bai Song complained after hearing him order.
"When did you learn foreign languages?" Nanchun asked Bai Xun.
"I taught you." Bo Song said proudly.
Nan Chun looked unconvinced: "You? You don't look like someone who can teach."
"My brother did teach some, but we also hired teachers who can speak foreign languages," said Bai Xun.
"You're amazing! Back in school, I struggled just to finish the teacher's homework. You actually still had time to learn foreign languages."
Nanchun really thinks Bai Xun is amazing, as if he can do anything.
"Okay, I'm still here! You're being so clingy and corny every day." Bo Song teased.
As they were talking, the meal was served.
The steak was bright in color and fragrant.
No chopsticks...
Nanchun picked up the knife and fork, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Let me help you cut it." Bai Xun took the steak in front of him, cut it quickly, and put it back in front of him.
Nanchun smiled at him, picked up the fork and started eating.
As they were eating, several people came in. Leading the way was a middle-aged man in a dark suit with meticulously styled hair. The fabric of the suit had a faint sheen under the soft light.
He paired it with a pair of perfectly tailored trousers, the trouser legs draped over his polished leather shoes, the sheen of which complemented the suit, exuding a sense of nobility.
Nanchun looked around curiously while eating.
Bai Xun followed his gaze and whispered, "Second Master of the Sheng Family."
When Bai Song heard this, he quickly turned around to look.
"Oh, Second Master! What a coincidence!" He stood up and walked forward with a smile.
Nanchun followed Baixun and stood up, still chewing beef in his mouth.
"Young Master Bai." Sheng Yuquan had a faint smile on his face. He stopped and stretched out his hand to shake hands with Bai Song.
His gaze fell on Bai Xun and Nan Chun again: "Second Young Master Bai is here too, it's been a while."
"Second Master, nice to meet you." Bai Xun shook hands with him.
"Who is this?" Sheng Yuquan asked Nanchun.
"My name is Nanchun." Nanchun quickly swallowed the meat in her mouth and stretched out her hand to shake hands with him.
"Haha, this young master looks unfamiliar." Seeing his anxious look, Sheng Yuquan couldn't help but smile.
"He is my lover." Bai Xun said.
Sheng Yuquan and the people around him were all surprised when they heard this.
I heard that the second young master of the Bai family married a man and dotes on him very much.
I originally thought it was just a joke, but now it seems to be true.
"Lover? Haha, the second young master Bai's behavior is indeed unusual. Other people's male concubines are hidden in the backyard, and it is rare to bring them out to show off in public like this." The middle-aged man next to Sheng Yuquan raised his hand to adjust his glasses and sneered.
Seeing Bai Xun's expression change slightly, Bai Song quickly said, "They grew up together and have a very deep bond. They're probably even closer than an ordinary couple, so please don't be surprised."
"As long as the relationship is good, it's good. Is this Mr. Nan's first time in Yangcheng?" Sheng Yuquan asked with a smile.
"Yes." Nanchun nodded.
"Young Master Bai is very busy with his work, and his business is getting bigger and bigger. I guess he doesn't have time to take you for a stroll. My boy is about the same age as you and the second young master. You can come find him later and ask him to take you around." Sheng Yuquan said with a smile.
"Second Master, you are too kind to me. My small business is not even ranked in Yangcheng." Bo Song said with an awkward smile.
"Don't be so modest. The porcelains of the Bai family are all treasures and worth a fortune. This is incomparable to ordinary business. Okay, you guys eat, I won't disturb you anymore." Sheng Yuquan said meaningfully and patted Bai Song's shoulder.
After saying that, Sheng Yuquan led his men inside.
"Goodbye, Second Master." Bai Song said with a smile.
After sitting down again, Nanchun whispered, "So that's the Second Master of the Sheng Family."
"What? Is it different from what you imagined?" Bai Song said with a smile.
"Well, he looks quite...friendly." Nanchun said after thinking for a while.
Bo Song was amused by his words: "Amiable? Hahaha, he's not hideous or vicious either."
"But he doesn't look much like the Fourth Master. You can't tell they are brothers at all," said Nanchun.
"That's true."
Seeing Bai Xun's gloomy face, Bai Song poured him a glass of red wine, sighed and said, "Okay, don't be angry."
Nanchun nudged Baixun with her shoulder and whispered, "I'm not angry, why are you angry? I've heard that kind of talk many times. They can say whatever they want, and if I get angry, wouldn't that just be what they want? The more they say, the better I have to live, so that I can piss them off!"
"Oh, Nanchun, you really impressed me. Your idea is quite good! Angry others, but never angry yourself. Baixun, you have to learn from Nanchun." Baisong said and gave Nanchun a thumbs up.
"The person who just spoke should be Marshal Li." Bai Xun said in a deep voice.
"Marshal Li?" Bo Song looked towards the second floor in surprise. "Haven't I heard that Marshal Li is coming to Yangcheng?"
"Although he was dressed in a neat suit and wore gold-rimmed glasses, looking like a refined businessman, he had thick calluses on his knuckles and index finger, suggesting he frequently used a gun. His build and age were similar to the rumored Marshal Li.
Besides, didn't Boss Sun say that? As soon as Young Marshal Li arrived in Yangcheng, he started calling friends and spending money like water. His high profile was too abnormal. He was probably not only trying to trick Boss Sun, but also covering up his father's secret trip to Yangcheng.
Hearing this, Bai Song frowned slightly. "Oh, the reckless man is even using military tactics. It seems that the Sheng family is determined to cooperate with Marshal Li."
