Cheng Li listened to the entourage's words and nodded.
Immediately two men came in, of medium build and serious expressions.
Cheng Li invited them to the study room.
Xu Yinjie took the opportunity to get close to Yun Qiao and whispered to Yun Qiao: "They must be Japanese. Look at the way they walk."
Yun Qiao frowned slightly.
Not because of the Japanese, but because of Xu Yinjie's approach.
She stepped aside: "Don't force me to beat you at Brother Cheng's house, stay away from me."
Xu Yinjie was as shameless as the city wall, and covered his heart with a smile: "I am so sad that you are so indifferent to me."
"Being beaten not only makes you sad, but also hurts your body." Yun Qiao said, "There are so many girls in your school, but you don't know how to pursue one? She looks mean to me all day long. I really don't like her."
Speaking of this, Yun Qiao suddenly thought of himself.
At Uncle Qi's place, she is probably as worthless as Xu Yinjie.
She was filled with grief and anger, and she hated Xu Yinjie even more. She gave an ultimatum: "Stay away from me!"
Xu Yinjie: "..."
He didn't offend her much, so why did he suddenly lose his temper? It was so sudden.
Cheng Li went to the study room with his guest and chatted for about ten minutes. When the guest came out, his expression softened and he was not as solemn as when he first came in.
Cheng Li talked to them in Japanese: "Eat before leaving. Today is my birthday."
"No, I have to go back and get my life back." One of them said, "Mr. Cheng, I wish you peace and success and a happy birthday."
Cheng Li smiled: "Thank you."
He sends the guests out.
When he came back, he found that Yun Qiao was missing. Cheng Li glanced and saw no one, so he asked his entourage.
The attendant said that Yun Qiao went to the bathroom.
Cheng Li found Yun Qiao in the small reception room next to the bathroom on the second floor. She was sitting there in a daze.
"...unhappy?" Cheng Li asked her, "Is it because of Xu Yinjie or because of the visiting Japanese?"
He knew that Yun Qiao didn't like Japanese people very much.
Yun Qiao: "No, I just want to sit down and feel a little tired."
Cheng Li sat down on the sofa next to him, took out a box of cigarettes, smoked one and handed it to Yun Qiao: "Do you want it?"
Yun Qiao saw him and couldn't help being amused by him: "Why should I smoke?"
"Refresh yourself," Cheng Lida said.
She took one.
But he didn't smoke. Yun Qiao didn't know much about smoking, and he didn't have any desire to smoke. He just watched.
Cheng Li asked her if she minded, and then lit one. The room was filled with the refreshing smell of tobacco, like the smell of Xi Lanting, and Yun Qiao felt nervous again.
"You seem to be in a bad mood." Cheng Lida said, "What trouble did you encounter?"
"No." Yun Qiao said, "Second brother, I am also a young girl. In late spring and other seasons, I feel sad about spring and sad about autumn, and my mood is unstable."
Cheng Li: "Really?"
Yun Qiao knocked the cigarette in her hand and got out a bit of shredded tobacco, which fell between her fingers as white as jade.
"Of course it's true," she said, "otherwise, what else would be possible? You can eat and drink all day long, and you don't need to do anything. People should cherish their blessings. Many people in this world don't have enough to eat."
Cheng Li listened and pondered for a moment.
"It will be fine in the future. When we establish a strong government, the military, economy and diplomacy are slowly on the right track, we will become prosperous and everyone will have enough to eat and a house to live in." Cheng Lidao.
Yun Qiao: "..."
She was suddenly shocked by this lofty ideal, and felt that it was not worth it for her to be sad for love.
Little family spirit.
"Second brother, what do you want to do when we become stronger in the future?" Yun Qiao asked.
Cheng Li: "Build a house."
"Build a house?"
"Well, build a good house anywhere in the city or town. There will be thousands of fertile fields and thousands of gorgeous houses. I am a very traditional person. In my ideal country, only if you have houses and land can you be truly prosperous and lively." Cheng
Establish a path.
Cheng Li also told Yun Qiao that the city is not like the countryside now. Many places in the city are dirty and messy, the houses are dilapidated and many people are crowded together.
The government will not invest money and will only let businessmen build it.
Cheng Li really wanted to do this. He wanted everyone to have a spacious and bright house to live in.
