Chapter 25 Chapter Twenty-Five

In the Paramount Ballroom, there is a mix of Chinese and Western ladies and gentlemen. There are more Chinese people dancing in pairs than Westerners. There are also Chinese and Westerners dancing in pairs, holding hands high and exaggerating their movements. Chang Lili came in, dressed in a red dress, and threw the fox fur coat to the concierge, it seemed that she knew the way here.When she walked across the dance floor in a song, it seemed that all the vitality of this spring was gathered in one body.There were murmurs all over the place, many dancers turned their eyes, and the steps on the dance floor were a little chaotic.Only the orchestra remained loyal to its duties, playing the waltz with the same beat.

Chang Lili sat down at a table, and a waiter ran over immediately. As soon as she ordered drinks, a man came up to tell the waiter to pay the bill.She picked up the cigarette on the table, inserted her own long cigarette holder, and a man came to light the fire.Just when the dance music was over, there were more men around the table, trying to attract her attention with nothing to say. At this time, Yu Qiyang walked into the ballroom wearing a top hat.Among the men in beautiful suits, Yu Qiyang's black suit, bronze tie and black vest looked old-fashioned.His appearance here is not outstanding either. For a thirty-eight-year-old man, he looks old and his face is too cold, and most of the surroundings are handsome young men.Hearing someone say, "It's Boss Yu!" Everyone in the ballroom turned their heads, and the noisy voices blew through the entire forest like the wind blowing leaves. "It's really Boss Yu! It's him!"

Yu Qiyang smiled and walked slowly towards the table where Chang Lili was sitting, and the crowded people respectfully made way for him.Yu Qiyang didn't answer anyone, in fact almost no one dared to greet him.He sat at Chang Lili's table, put his hat on the table, and took out a cigarette to smoke. Within a few minutes, all the men scattered around the table. On the contrary, many women, including some foreign women, turned towards this place. The table probes the brain. The dance music played again, and no one came to their side to ask either of the two men to dance.Chang Lili extended her hand to Yu Qiyang, Yu Qiyang smiled and took her hand.

Yu Qiyang's dance steps are relatively stable, with small steps, and he can keep up with Lili's fancy footwork so-so.While dancing, Li Li whispered in his ear: "Look at these thieves, they all avoided you when they saw you." Yu Qiyang also smiled, "Who is not afraid of death?" Li Li almost bit his ear, "You are such a majestic man!" She pressed her face to his temple. Yu Qiyang was a little embarrassed, and said, "How can that be? The flying girl is really majestic." He tried to push Li Li's body away, but Li Li simply hung her hands around his neck and looked at Yu Qiyang affectionately. , Yu Qiyang turned his face away to avoid Lili's gaze.Everyone in the audience watched Chang Lili hug and dance with the famous Boss Yu from Shanghai Bund. They didn't know what it meant and couldn't help talking in a low voice.Some people are talking about "inside information", while others are spreading rumors.Chang Lili was intoxicated by everyone's excited speculation.

Finally, the song ended, and they politely clapped their palms towards the band and sat back at the table.A small follower came over to talk to Yu Qiyang in a whisper, and Yu Qiyang signaled him to go out and talk.He got up and told Li Li not to wander around, "Wait for me to come back. I'll be right back." By the time Yu Qiyang returned to the ballroom, several tunes had passed, and Li Li had already danced several times.Obviously, no man dared to be jealous this time.She was surrounded by all kinds of Chinese and Western men again, and when they saw Yu Qiyang, they dispersed again, and a few of them approached shyly and said, "Boss Yu is in a good mood today."

Yu Qiyang smiled, still ignoring anyone.When the music started, he took the initiative to pull up Lili to dance.This time, Li Li hooked her tightly and said something in her ear. Li Li opened her mouth wide and her eyes widened, but she soon regained her composure.The two continued to dance affectionately. After the dance music ended, Yu Qiyang led Lili back to the table. He picked up his hat and seemed to be leaving. He called the waiter and paid the bill. He also gave a large tip and said with a smile: " I'm old, I can't play anymore, let's take a step first. You play."

After a while, Chang Lili also told each man that she was tired from dancing, and thanked each of the well-behaved and attentive men tonight.The waiter brought her coat and said her car would be coming soon.She walked to the entrance of the dance hall downstairs, and her car was parked by the side of the road. She opened the car door and sat in. As soon as she stepped on the accelerator, the car squeaked and rushed out.A car on the opposite side of the road also started immediately, and she soon saw that the car behind was indeed following closely. She drove into the downtown area, and the car behind her was watching closely.

She became nervous and wanted to get rid of the following. As soon as she drove faster, the cars behind her also accelerated.The car sped past the Bund and headed west along Seymour Road.Suddenly, she made a sharp turn into a side street.The following car didn't expect this move, it was too fast and rushed to the front. After slamming the car on the brakes, it had to back away amidst the traffic and protesting horns, and then quickly entered the side street. The road was very dark, and just after driving for a short distance, two bricks were suddenly thrown from the road ahead, smashing the front window, and the bricks were still flying one after another.The car screeched to a stop.All the street lights on this street were suddenly extinguished, and four people rushed out in the darkness beside them. The two in front carried daggers, and the two in the back pulled their guns. But they didn't kill anyone, they just opened the car door to drag them out.

Those who hadn't been dragged out hurriedly drew their knives, but someone in the car had already ordered: "Get back!" Taking advantage of a person who was being dragged out kicking and shouting, the driver reversed sharply and drove out, regardless of whether the door was still open. The door of the car was knocked off the electric pole by the side of the road and flew off, the broken glass flew around, and the side of the car rubbed against the wall and sparked a lot of sparks, but the driver was skilled, and finally forcibly backed out of the path, the tires squealed and the car drove fast out, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.Only the captured man fell to the ground moaning.

At this time, someone took out a flashlight, took a photo, and found that the actor who was pulled out was Zhang Hui, who was playing the general. "Hey, bad luck!" It was Chang Lili's voice. She looked down and screamed, "It's a thrilling midnight, and I caught such a bastard!" Someone lifted Zhang Hui from the ground and said, "Miss, get out of the way and go to the alley!" Before Chang Lili could understand the situation, she was pulled away and dragged into a darker side alley.When Chang Lili left a certain distance and the flashlight went out, she punched her in the ribs fiercely. Zhang Hui screamed and fell to the ground, and was kicked in the ribs by the big leather boots. Zhang Hui screamed and was kicked in the face .Someone said harshly: "Don't bark, if you bark again, you will die today!"

The fist landed on the vital ribs, this time Zhang Hui really just covered her chest and moaned, not daring to cry out. Footsteps could be heard, and someone warned: "Miss, don't come up." When the flashlight was turned on again, a bruised and swollen face was dripping with blood.Chang Lili couldn't help poking her head curiously, and when she glanced at it, her face turned pale and her lips were blue with fright, she hurriedly turned her face away.A voice asked Zhang Hui in a low voice, "Who was in that car just now?" "I don't know you." Zhang Hui groaned, and faltered through the bloody teeth. "I don't know why in the car?" "The dance hall, the friend who came out of the dance hall asked me to give me a ride." "You're not honest!" Another kick, this one hurt Zhang Hui almost to death.But the batterer pays attention not to hit the most vital parts. "Who the hell? Just stuck the knife in without saying anything." The metal blade was icy on his face, making Zhang Hui tremble with fright. "Don't, don't use the knife." Zhang Hui finally said, "One is called the third." That was enough, there was no further questioning, and the flashlight went out again.This time the knife was used, and in a flash of light and shadow, Zhang Hui was scratched on the face, and he immediately fainted on the ground.The thug dropped the last words: "If you report to the police station, you will be the first to enter the cell. You are a kidnapper who designed to kill someone." Chang Lili's car quickly drove out from the alley, and it was Yu Qiyang who was driving.Another car followed behind, this is the car that was ambushing here, and now they are protecting them from being ambushed on the road.Chang Lili looked back at the person lying on the ground, and said in horror, "Is he dead?" Yu Qiyang didn't make a sound, and one of the two men in the back seat replied: "I won't die, the knife on the face will ensure that the little boy will be a crooked face for the rest of his life." The person who spoke sneered, "I can't play a general, but play a gangster." Scoundrel!" Chang Lili crossed her arms, trembling with fright, and suddenly burst into tears: "I'm afraid, I'm afraid. He will definitely not go around me! What should I do?" Yu Qiyang said: "No, he will never dare to approach you in his life." Chang Lili didn't seem to hear it, and she couldn't help screaming: "Killing people is so terrible, Sohorrible!" "This has nothing to do with you. You don't have to be afraid. It's aimed at me. I take full responsibility." Chang Lili still couldn't stop sobbing, "It's terrible! It's bloody! Sohorrible!" She tore off the hem of her red skirt, but she couldn't tear it off, so she covered her entire face with her hands. Yu Qiyang looked at her, and said to the subordinates behind him: "Okay, give the signal to the back, let's go to No. 3 and have a cup of hot tea first, so as to calm her down."
