Catch the wind

Chapter 15 Strive for the top

Ye Xueshan took a train all the way, and almost died of heat in the carriage; after going through all kinds of hardships, he arrived at Gu's house, but after entering the door, he learned that Gu Xiongfei left Beijing last week and went to Beidaihe to escape the summer heat.

Going out to escape the heat in midsummer is of course a very normal thing.Ye Xueshan stood in the sun for a moment, and admitted that he had indeed come hastily—he always felt that Gu Xiongfei was a Buddha, and he would never move in Beijing, so he came as soon as he said he would, without even saying hello in advance.

Ye Xueshan went upstairs and entered the guest room, hesitating whether to stay for one night before leaving, or turn around immediately to catch the afternoon train.Stretching out his hand to open the drawer, he found the beautiful letterhead he had used last time; he pulled out a piece of paper and spread it on the table, he sat down hesitantly, picked up the pen, and slowly wrote a text message to Gu Xiongfei.

His handwriting can still be seen, but his literary talent is not at all.Putting down the pen and folding up the letter paper, he lowered his head and took out a flat brocade box from his pocket.Inside the box was a Movado watch, which was his thank you gift to Gu Xiongfei.Although they are all transactions, but if the transaction is to be stable, human affection must be injected into this relationship.Besides, according to his wishes, he really wanted to turn this transaction into a cooperation - Gu Xiongfei provided protection and got a commission, isn't it also very good?

He is a person who is very good at making a living by romance, but he is very unwilling to impose this method on his elder brother.Brothers are brothers, even though Gu Xiongfei doesn't bother to be his big brother, but the blood relationship is there, Gu Xiongfei has to admit it if he doesn't.In front of Gu Xiongfei, he can only show his butt at most, even if it is so, he still feels like he has been skinned by someone, and hiding in the dark is not enough.

Ye Xueshan didn't sprinkle perfume on the letterhead, and put it directly into the watch box.After going out and entering Gu Xiongfei's bedroom, he stuffed the box under the pillow.

Gu Xiongfei's big bed was covered with a spring cushion, and it sank softly and deeply when pressed.Seeing the scorching sun outside, Ye Xueshan couldn't go out and go home right away, so he simply turned on the electric fan in the corner of the room, rang the bell to call the servant, and ordered a glass of soda and a plate of snacks.After closing the door and taking off his leather shoes, he lay down comfortably on the bed, drank a sip of soda and took a bite of a snack. The comfort was beyond words, and at the same time, he felt a little happy in his heart, thinking that it would be good if Gu Xiongfei wasn't there.Once Gu Xiongfei shows up, he will have to say something to hurt him, that's all, what's more terrible is to use his hands and feet, always wanting to touch him.What are you touching on a hot day?Besides, even if the weather is not hot, Ye Xueshan still respects his rough hands and feet.

Ye Xueshan fell asleep on Gu Xiongfei's big bed, and ate a sumptuous dinner after waking up.At this time the sun had already set, and the heat on the ground gradually dissipated. Taking advantage of the coolness, he caught the night train back to Tianjin.

He arrived at the station in the early hours of the morning, and three hours after he got off the train, Gu Xiongfei also arrived in Beijing.

Gu Xiongfei went to Beidaihe together with the eldest young master of Duan's inspecting envoy's family and the third young master of General Shen's family, and lived in Duan's family's seaside villa.Unexpectedly, the occupancy was not full for a week, but he himself came back first.

He couldn't go back, he caught crabs shirtless at the seaside, his whole body and face were sunburned, his whole body was burning with pain at night, and his skin was dry and black to a charcoal color.In fact, he was not short of crabs to eat, he just wanted a little bit of fun on the beach, but he ended up like this, so he had to go home early to recuperate.He entered the house like a black-faced god, and immediately a servant came up to greet him, and said with a smile: "Hey, why did you come back early? Yesterday, Young Master Ye came over. Seeing that you were not there, he rushed back by the night train." Tianjin. If I had known this, I would have kept him overnight."

Gu Xiongfei became slightly interested: "What is he doing here?"

The servant smiled and said, "Master Ye didn't say anything."

Gu Xiongfei didn't ask any more questions, and went upstairs to go back to his room to change clothes.Standing tall and tall by the bed, he was about to take off his outer jacket, but when he glanced out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly found a corner of a square box protruding from his pillow.Immediately, he bent down with his front open, took out the watch box, and found that the bed was full of snack scum.

Looking closely at the scum, he found that there were also traces of sitting and lying on the bed.Who dares to eat and drink on his bed, except Ye Xueshan?

Gu Xiongfei was not angry, but smiled involuntarily.Turning around and sitting down to open the lid, he didn't rush to look at the watch, but unfolded the upper layer of letterhead.

There were only a few plain words in the letter, which were almost irrelevant, and there was a typo in it.But Gu Xiongfei read it several times, and felt that Ye Xueshan was interesting, and the letter he wrote was also quite interesting—like a child, he came here to tell himself after earning some money, and he stumbled and spoke incoherently.

Gu Xiongfei is very free - due to his status, he no longer has to do everything himself, and the only right way is to strive for the top; however, the inspector of the upper peak section watched him grow up, and he called the inspector Duan his uncle.Since the relationship is so close, he simply omitted the effort of flattering others.

He put on his watch distractedly, and wanted to go to Tianjin to visit Ye Xueshan.After one night, however, he started peeling.

Peeling off, layer by layer, from the face to the arms, from the chest to the back, all in a mess of dry white skin.This virtue is obviously not able to see people at all, so he was trapped at home by his own skin.

It took half a month like this before his skin regained its clean luster, but it was still so dark that no one would be able to find him when the lights were turned off.Fortunately, he has always been a tall and strong man, and now he has added a layer of blackness, which is not a big change.

Feeling good about himself, he boarded the train. He thought to himself that Ye Xueshan had made a small fortune this time, so he didn't know how to be frivolous. If it really made trouble, he would have to teach him a few words.Unexpectedly, when he really arrived at the Ye Mansion, he just entered the door in vain.When the servant was called to ask, the servant told him firmly: "Our young master has just started a company, and at this moment, he must be busy with business."

Gu Xiongfei was taken aback: "What? He started a company?"

The servants of the Ye family have always been like wandering souls, who rarely appear except sweeping; Gu Xiongfei couldn't believe the answer of wandering souls, but at this moment wandering souls nodded again and again, with a certain attitude: "Yes, we really opened a family The company is in the Japanese Concession.”

At this moment, a car stopped outside the courtyard, but Ye Xueshan came back.

Gu Xiongfei looked out through the window, and saw that he was wearing a light gray jinyunge robe, because he walked in a hurry, so he walked in a breeze, and came in like a gust of wind.When the two met each other, they were taken aback for a moment, then smiled, and then asked at the same time: "Why is it dark?"

As soon as this remark came out, because it was too uniform, it was a joy again.Gu Xiongfei is naturally black, and Ye Xueshan has been running around under the sun for the past few days, and he has also lost the qualification to be a bad boy.After laughing, Gu Xiongfei turned his hands behind his back and said slowly: "I just came back from Beidaihe, so I came to see you."

Ye Xueshan smiled and said, "Thank you, brother, for thinking about me."

Gu Xiongfei sat down noncommittal, and then asked: "I heard you started a company?"

Ye Xueshan asked the servant to bring up iced watermelon, and sat down beside him: "It's called a company, but in fact, it only rented an office and hired two employees, just for fun."

At this time, a servant brought watermelon on a large porcelain plate, Ye Xueshan probed over to have a closer look, finally picked up the best piece from it, leaned over and handed it to Gu Xiongfei.Gu Xiongfei took a bite of the watermelon, and then asked, "What kind of business do you do?"

Ye Xueshan smiled and shook his head: "It's hard to say. If there is any business, I will do it. For example, opium is not illegal in the Japanese Concession, so I will do some tobacco business for the time being."

Gu Xiongfei suddenly became suspicious: "Aren't you cooperating with others? Why do you want to work alone now?"

Ye Xueshan replied: "Cooperation is cooperation. While cooperating, you can also do a little business alone. I have been incompetent for these years. It is probably not too late to wake up now. It's just that I don't understand everything. Brother, please tell me more in the future. "

After hearing his serious words, Gu Xiongfei was not very happy in his heart, and replied stiffly: "It turned out that it was just a reminder, and I was shocked. I thought you wanted me to invest!"

Then he had a dark face - when Ye Xueshan was not motivated, he couldn't bear it; when Ye Xueshan was motivated, he was even more uncomfortable.He couldn't tell what it was because of. All in all, he didn't want the other party to change.
