Chapter 460 Intrigue
Facing the three people's explanations, Wei Xing just smiled without explaining.
Forcibly suppressing the surging breath in his body, he shook the white paper fan in his hand and said calmly, "Yuan Jie, sneak out from the back door, go to the Chang Mansion, talk to Mr. Chang about this, and ask him to come over and help you." You are in charge.”
"Okay Brother Xing, I'll be there right away." Yuan Jie responded respectfully and immediately stood up and left.
Wei Xing looked at Wan Feiyan's playful face and said, "Sisters, don't be idle! Hurry downstairs and deal with those big households with your brother. Otherwise, your brother will be in a hurry on his own."
"Hmph! Why should I listen to you? Just because you are Gu Chan's person, I have to listen to you, right?" Wan Feiyan Aojiao said.
Di Lin hurriedly persuaded, "Miss Wan, you may not know him. According to you, he is the second-in-command of our shopkeeper. When the shopkeeper is here, we have to listen to him. When he is not here, we have to listen to Brother Xing." ”
"That's it! It seems that I really underestimate you." Wan Feiyan said with a smile.
It was only then that she began to pay attention to Wei Xing.
Wei Xing was not a person who liked to support others, so he said with a humble face, "Miss Wan, we don't have time to argue here. Please go down and help your brother quickly, lest he can't protect you."
"Okay, for the sake of being the second in command, I will listen to you just once." Wan Feiyan said with a smile.
After saying that, she immediately stood up and left.
When she passed by Wei Xing, she glanced at him deliberately and gave him a meaningful smile.
Wei Xing stretched out his hand to scratch his forehead in embarrassment, pretending not to notice.
After she went out, Di Lin joked, "Brother Xing, I'm afraid Miss Wan has fallen in love with you, right?"
"Put her down! Her eyes are affectionate even when looking at a dog. She doesn't look like a dedicated woman. I don't want to have anything to do with her." Wei Xing said disdainfully.
He might not be sure when it comes to men, but when it comes to women, he is absolutely confident that he can spot them accurately.
Although it was the first time that he met Wan Feiyan today, he could tell from her every move and even her expression that this woman was definitely not a good person. Of course, he couldn't say that Wan Feiyan was bad. It can be said that the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds. Some people's attitude towards feelings is not something that ordinary people can understand.
Di Lin didn't say much on the matter, and instead asked, "Brother Xing, is there anything I can do to help you now?"
"Recovering your injuries is the best help to the little boss. Originally, he was counting on you and Yuan Jie to open the Yaoduoduo store as soon as possible. In the end, you were beaten to death, and you even used Shang Fang's sword. If he loses it, won't it hinder him? So you have to heal your injuries quickly and open the shop as soon as possible to avoid causing trouble for him again." Wei Xing reminded.
"Brother Xing, thank you for your reminder. I understand now, and I promise not to hold you back again in the future." Di Lin said with a guilty look on his face.
Wei Xing nodded quietly, and after the two chatted for a few more words, Di Lin stood up to say goodbye and went back to his room to rest.
Wei Xing walked to the desk and sat down, reading a book and quietly waiting to watch the show.
In the lobby downstairs.
The reality was just as Wei Xing expected. Wan Peng usually had no problems managing this small gambling house, but when he faced hundreds of prominent and wealthy people in Jiangnan City, He seemed a little stretched. Especially Xiao Xiang, the eldest daughter of the Xiao family, she is born with an extremely oppressive nobility. Even if she sits there, she can give people a strong sense of oppression. In addition, there are hundreds of wealthy people with her. Applying pressure, Wan Peng was so pressed that he couldn't breathe, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
When Wan Feiyan came down, she saw that her brother was pressed like this. She quickly stepped forward, stood in front of Xiao Xiang, helped her brother out, and said, "Miss Xiao, please forgive me if my brother was not treated well just now." , and everyone present, I also ask you to wait patiently. In the short term, we, the two brothers, really have no way to invite shopkeeper Gu to come and meet with you. "
"I'll give you Wan Yuan Fang a stick of incense time. If Gu Chan hasn't come to see us after this, then from tomorrow on, your Wan Family gambling house won't need to open." Xiao Xiang took a sip of fragrant tea and said with a cold face.
"Yes, you dare to keep us waiting for so long. You Wanjia are simply too presumptuous."
"And that Gu Chan is just a small caravan shopkeeper from the north. He dares to do so. He is so bold."
"We have been here since the morning and have been so angry until now. If we don't see Gu Chan today, we will have to make it worse for you Wanjia."
As Xiao Xiang spoke, all the big businessmen also followed suit and shouted angrily.
Obviously, everyone has been angry since they came here in the morning and they still haven't seen Gu Chan.
Wan Feiyan and Wan Peng looked at each other, with helpless expressions on their faces.
Sure enough, Wei Xing got it right!
The news that Jiangnan Garden of Jiangnan Academy was burned down last night has already spread throughout Jiangnan City today. And who is sitting here is not a well-known and wealthy person in Jiangnan City? How could they not know that Gu Chan was arrested and sent to the county jail last night? Closed inside?
But this group of people all tacitly kept silent about the matter and only asked Gu Chan to come to see them. Isn't it clear that they wanted to put pressure on Gu Chan and attack the Wan family again?
The Wanjia will be taken advantage of by then. With Gu Chan's relationship with the Wanjia, how can she find a way to save the Wanjia?
In this way, wouldn't it be much easier for these big business owners to buy spirit beast blood from her?
So this is all a game of intrigue, and the undercurrents hidden behind it are far more turbulent than they appear on the surface.
And just when the two siblings were oppressed and did not dare to speak, a carriage drove to a stop outside the gambling house.
Chang Wei took Yuan Jie out of the carriage and walked into the gambling house gate unhurriedly.
"Hey! Isn't this Young Master Chang? Why are you here too?"
"Mr. Chang, come and sit down quickly. We just can't wait for Gu Chan. I heard that you have a good relationship with him, so it's a good thing that you are here."
"Yes, yes! Mr. Chang, please take a seat quickly!"
The big bosses looked angry just now, but after Chang Wei arrived, their faces immediately changed, and they all greeted him with smiles.
Chang Wei responded politely, then walked over to Xiao Xiang and sat down.
Xiao Xiang stiffened his face, put the tea bowl in his hand on the table, glanced at Chang Wei, and began to look serious.
She could look down upon anyone present, but she did not dare to underestimate the eldest son of the Chang family. After all, Chang Wei was extremely famous in the Jiangnan area and was by no means comparable to ordinary people.
