But Han Youlou and Mrs. Yu said that they didn't agree with each other, and they broke up after a quarrel.In her heart, Mrs. Yu wanted to find a way to get revenge on him, she thought: "You are at the Huayang Hotel, you pay special attention to my table, don't you want to have a relationship with Miss Zhu? Good! Since you are making fun of me, it is not difficult for me Make fun of you on her. I don’t need any other means, just give you a promise to never leave, and I’m not afraid that you won’t come and plead guilty to me.” She thought in her heart, and from now on, when she went to Huayang Hotel, if Han You When Lou came, she had to pay attention to his actions, to see if he was dancing with young women?Who knows that Han Youlou really agrees with his heart, he never danced with another woman.On the contrary, Ma Shixiang, who often comes with him, is extremely active, no matter what kind of woman he has to deal with.He knew that Mrs. Yu was the leader here, so he went to ask someone who knew the situation in the social circle, how could he get in touch?The man said: "This is extremely easy, you just need to treat her to a big meal and compliment her hard, and she will naturally find a match with you.

As for the relationship between the opponent and you, it depends on your wrist, she is powerless.If she introduces one or two girlfriends, she is happy to do favors.Because the opponent has one or two more boyfriends, it's nothing, and there are only benefits and no harm to her. "After hearing this, Ma Shixiang thought, relying on my personal face is not enough. If I take Han Youlou to invite her, she will be happy to introduce her. On this day, he accompanied Han Youlou to Listening to the show, I was about to explain some reasons, but in a blink of an eye, Han Youlou disappeared. In a moment, the adjutant sent a letter, saying that the uncle has left Beijing from the station. Half of the people in Beijing will stay in Beijing, and the other half will stay in Beijing. Within six hours, another special car will leave Beijing. Ma Shixiang was baffled when he heard this. Fortunately, he is a person staying in Beijing, so he went back to his apartment in a calm manner. He thought to himself: "Social field Here, although introductions are required, those who are capable may not necessarily be unable to find friends.

Now that the uncle is gone, I don't have to invite Mrs. Yu, lest she be short-sighted and rebellious. I saw the woman sitting at the table opposite me two days ago, every time she sat down and left in a hurry. , it seems that there is no partner yet, why don't I take the opportunity to proceed? "I made up my mind. When he went to Huayang Hotel the next day, he planned to take the old seat. It was a coincidence that when he entered, the woman was also in front. When she left, a handkerchief suddenly fell from her body. Ma Shixiang saw , hurriedly stepped forward, picked up the handkerchief, caught up two steps, walked up to the woman, and handed the handkerchief over with a smile. The woman also smiled and said: "Excuse me! "Ma Shixiang has this opportunity, how can he let it go? Then he said: "You're welcome.Miss come here often?We have met several times. "

The woman smiled.At this time, everyone walked into the dining room, and Ma Shixiang asked her to sit down politely, and she sat down with a smile.With Ma Shixiang doing this, this girlfriend has been handed over, and when he looked up at the men and women sitting together in the dining room, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.I thought to myself, what is it if you have a partner?I'm a couple here too.After sitting down, when the servant came over, Ma Shixiang tried his best to give her what she wanted to eat and drink.Then he asked her slowly, "Can we exchange a business card?" She nodded with a smile.Ma Shixiang quickly took out a business card and sent it over. The woman took the card, looked at it, put it away, and then took out a business card and handed it to Ma Shixiang.Before Ma Shixiang received the business card, she thought to herself: "Look at her, her father is not a diplomat, and her elder brother is also a first-class figure in Jinshen. As for her hometown, she can already be expected to be from Jiangsu and Zhejiang from the Mandarin she speaks." It's gone." Ma Shixiang took the business card and looked at it, who knew that there was not a single Chinese character, but two English letters "TT" lined up horizontally.There are two lines of English in the corner of the business card. Although I have read a few words of English, I don't know it very well. I pretend to read it and put it on my body.I thought to myself, although I can't know her name and address for a while, the word TT, in the middle of the business card, must be her tuba. Whatever she is, I'll just call her Ms. TT.Then he asked: "From the lady's accent, it seems to be from Jiangsu." Ms. TT laughed and said: "My county is Changzhou. Where is Misto Ma?" Ma Shixiang said: "My place is Zhenjiang. We are very close fellow villagers. Based on this introduction, Ma Shixiang talked about things in his hometown with Ms. TT. Ms. TT was talking and laughing, sitting in one place without restraint, but after only an hour, she seemed to be very familiar with the two aspects.Ma Shixiang wanted to talk to her and asked her to dance together, but then she had another thought: don't be too busy, let's talk slowly.Don't hit a snag just after meeting.He held back and continued to talk to her.Later, when we talked about movies, unexpectedly, this lady likes movies the most. She said, "I have an appointment with a foreign friend to wait in Ping An! Let's meet tomorrow." After finishing speaking, she spoke very fluent English. , said a few words to Ma Shixiang, and left.

Ma Shixiang naturally wanted her to sit for a while longer, but it was difficult to keep her.Although the person was gone at this time, there was still a scent in his nose.He looked at the table, and there was still a handkerchief.When Ma Shixiang picked it up and smelled it, the aroma was tangy, and it was exactly what Ms. TT lost.He was so happy that he quickly put it on his body. On the next day, it was Saturday again, Huayang Hotel should have a big dance.He cut his hair for a while, changed into a beautiful suit, and even polished his leather shoes, and then went to Huayang Hotel, full of satisfaction, and wanted to dance with Ms. TT.When he arrived, Ms. TT was already there. She was wearing a green robe and a long apricot-yellow waistcoat. bright.She was very polite and quickly offered to sit down with a smile.Ma Shixiang didn't know how to memorize his resume yesterday because of the first meeting, but today he couldn't help but talk because he knew a lot.He said: "A few days ago, I often came here with Uncle Han, but I didn't see the lady." TT said: "I went to Tianjin two days ago, and there is Uncle Wu over there, I know him." Ma Shi Xiang said: "Yes, they are all within the rank of the eighth sons! We know Uncle Wu, he and our uncle are brothers. Although he is the eldest brother, in terms of talent, he is not as good as our uncle. After all, Uncle Wu is very close to me. It can be said that when he went abroad to investigate politics this time, he told our uncle a few times that he must let me be an attache." Although he said this in a normal way, unexpectedly it happened to be right with TT.He hurriedly smiled and asked: "Let's say that in the future, Mies will be able to play horses, Paris and London for a week. This is the best job I don't have. When will I leave?" Seeing TT's envious look, Ma Shixiang said: "The date of departure, what is the date of departure?" No decision. I heard that the government has set 300,000 yuan for this inspection. At least two-thirds of the money must be allocated before we can leave. In the future, the boat will be a chartered cabin, and the car will be a special car. There will be people along the way Hospitality, the road is very comfortable." Hearing these words, TT became more and more envious.Ma Shixiang seized the opportunity and said: "Miss, can I dance with you?" TT rolled his eyes and smiled slightly: "Yes." Although Ma Shixiang has learned to dance, but in the social field, he practiced dancing with women. It was the first time, and I felt a little timid in my heart.After a while, the music started to play, and Ms. TT stood up first.When Ma Shixiang stood up, she stretched out her hand and stood in front of Ma Shixiang.Ma Shixiang held her hand with one arm, and wrapped his arms around her waist with the other.She held Ma Shixiang's shoulder tightly with one hand.Nothing else, the fragrance of the perfume on her body, the fragrance of powder on her face, and the fragrance of oil in her hair, burst into her heart and spleen.The hand he held around Ms. TT's waist was warm and soft to the touch. In line with the ancient saying, the nephrite jade warm and fragrant hug filled his arms, and Ma Shixiang really couldn't help it.The two hugged each other and danced in two circles. Ms. TT was probably struggling a little.Her head was slightly tilted back, Ma Shixiang looked directly at her, and she could see clearly that her face was already red from the inside of the white powder, and she was panting thinly, which seemed to have some fragrance.At this time, Ma Shixiang felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.After a while of dancing, when I heard people applauding, I applauded myself unconsciously.Although it was his first time to dance, but Xixi hadn't shown any signs of it yet, so he felt that dancing was really interesting, and it was not as good as dancing.After dancing, the two became closer. Ms. TT asked Ma Shixiang where she lived. Ma Shixiang wanted her to ask such a question, so she said that she lived in Huimin Hotel, where there was everything except dancing. Ms. TT laughed and said: "I pass by that place every day, but I haven't entered it. If I go home from here, the noble apartment is the only way to go. Will I go back when I get off my horse? If I go back, I can send my car to You go to your apartment."

When Ms. TT said this, she went out and made a phone call, and came back after a while.Yuemo sat for another quarter of an hour, and TT said: "I'm leaving now, where is Misty's horse?" Ma Shixiang said: "Great, I can go back in the same car with the lady. My car, let it go." Go back." As the two of them walked out of the gate, a car drove up, a driver ran over, and opened the door, TT got in first, and Ma Shixiang followed suit.Ma Shixiang's driver came over and asked where he was going, Ma Shixiang said, "Go back." TT saw that the car driven by the driver was probably new, and said with a smile, "Miss Tuoma, I didn't know your car was here. Otherwise, I wouldn’t dare to invite you to ride in my broken car.” Ma Shixiang said, “I live in a hotel, and I don’t have a garage to store my car. The fuel cost is very high, plus the driver's wages, it is more than one hundred yuan per month. Moreover, this kind of car is often repaired, which is extremely troublesome. It is better to pay more than one hundred yuan a month. The monthly subscription is better, so as to save capital. Keeping the interest." Ma Shixiang said: "That's right, the cheaper the car, the more gas it consumes, so it's really not worth it. Madam, doesn't this car consume a lot of gas?" TT said: "It's because it doesn't consume gas , so I didn’t replace it.” Ma Shixiang was talking to her while smoking, and the cigar in his hand was almost exhausted, so he threw the cigar into the ashtray.At first glance, I saw a lithographed leaflet sandwiched beside the box, and I took it out to have a look, but it was the price list of the rental car issued by Rufei Automobile.Looking at the copper box, there is also the word Rufei engraved on it. Although TT could speak a few foreign words, she didn't know Chinese characters. Ma Shixiang was looking at the price list of the car, but she ignored it.

After a while, we arrived at Huimin Hotel and the car stopped.Ma Shixiang said: "Madam, can I invite you to sit in my apartment?" TT laughed and said, "It's late today, so I'll come back to have a look in two days." Seeing the meaning, Ma Shixiang didn't quite refuse, and said, "Since you're here There is no reason why you can’t get in through the door.” Waiting at the door of the car, TT saw that he insisted on inviting him, so he got out of the car with a smile.There used to be several stone steps at the gate of Huimin Hotel, but TT, wearing a long coat and high heels, stepped up step by step, like trouble.Ma Shixiang went over to give her a hand, and TT was even more rude, so he stretched out a hand to hold Ma Shixiang's arm, and the two walked in shoulder to shoulder.The waiter in the hotel, seeing Ma Shixiang coming, had already stepped forward and opened a room for him. TT went in and saw that there were three rooms in total, one bedroom, one reception room, and one bathroom. In a hotel, it was probably a first-class room.Ma Shixiang asked TT to sit down, and said with a smile: "Although this is a Western-style restaurant, it has everything, which is very suitable for the Chinese people. It's getting late, so I asked them to prepare some side dishes, and eat porridge here before eating. Let's go, okay?" TT sat on a sofa, reclined, turned his eyes to Ma Shixiang, and smiled.Said: "You don't have to be polite." When he said it, he looked up at the wall clock on the wall behind the sofa chair, and it was already past twelve o'clock.Seeing her looking at the clock, Ma Shixiang said, "It doesn't matter, it's early. The clock in the hotel has always been unreliable." Ma Shixiang stood by the sofa while talking, and took advantage of the situation to sit on the sofa chair. TT didn't move, just sat there, smiled and asked Ma Shixiang, "Just now you said it's getting late, please have porridge. Now you say the clock is unreliable and it's still early. Is it early or not?" When Ma Shixiang saw her joking with him, he felt more joyful, and said with a smile: "I thought it would be early if you wanted to leave, and it would be too early if you didn't. So in a short time, he said two different things. Then, the master kept the guest." Sincerity is also conceivable." TT heard that and smiled.Ma Shixiang followed suit and said, "Miss TT, I am very honored that we have become friends. I think, for the convenience of communication and conversation, can you tell me your name?" TT said : "My surname and my first name are both in the letters TT. I am TT. If you write a letter, follow the English address on my business card, and it will definitely be delivered." Ma Shixiang looked at her like that, and said: It's not a strict refusal, but it's inconvenient to keep asking, and I couldn't find anything else to say for a while, so I forced a smile. TT laughed and said, "I don't keep my name a secret. I have such a temper. I can tell him only when I have reached a certain level." Ma Shixiang said, "Will I be able to have this level in the future?" TT laughed He spoke a word of English.Ma Shixiang seemed to be quite appreciative of the words, but he didn't know how to answer, so he forced a smile. At this time, TT became happy, walked into the bedroom, looked around, and said with a smile: "It's not bad." She saw the bathroom behind the bed, and said, "Let me see how the bathroom is." She opened the door as she spoke. go in.Ma Shixiangyuan followed behind, TT walked in, he also walked in, and asked with a smile: "How do you think, is it still clean?"

TT said: "It's still clean." Ma Shixiang said: "Do you want to take a bath?" TT said: "Who? Did you ask me to take a bath? It's late at night, if it's still early, I really want to take a bath. "Ma Shixiang smiled and said: "I will say that I said something different again later, but in my opinion, it was very early. "As soon as he said that, he took off his outer clothes, exposing his shirt and waistcoat, twisted the knob on the water pipe, put some water in the basin, took a towel hanging on the hanger, and wiped the tub. TT stepped forward, pulled Ma Shixiang into his arms, and said with a smile, "I don't dare to take it seriously. Please do it yourself, and I will come by myself." Hearing what she said, Ma Shixiang walked out of the bathroom, and TT closed the bathroom door with a bang. .Ma Shixiang put his hands in his trouser pockets, stood in the middle of the bedroom blankly, stood for a while, then took out a cigar from the cigar box on the table, put it in his mouth, and sat on a sofa opposite the bathroom door , wiped off the lamp, and smoked slowly.At this time, TT suddenly laughed and said, "How is this?" Ma Shixiang asked the bathroom door, "What's wrong?" TT asked across the room, "Are there any slippers here? Now that I think about it, I’ll put on shoes after washing my wet feet?” Ma Shixiang said, “It doesn’t matter, I have a pair of slippers.” TT said, “Then, please put it by the door and let me come Take it." After hearing this, Ma Shixiang really took her own slippers, put them on the door of the bathroom, and said, "Here are the shoes." Then she stood quietly by the door. TT pushed the door lightly, poked his head out, looked out, and quickly closed the door with a smile, saying, "Why is that so?" Ma Shixiang also laughed. TT took a full hour of bathing before finishing his work.Then he and Ma Shixiang went to the bedroom outside, and there were small dishes on the table, it was obvious that the waiter had already entered once.As soon as Ma Shixiang rang the bell, the waiter came in, and asked, "Would you serve porridge?" But his eyes were on TT. TT's face flushed for a while.Ma Shixiang hurriedly said: "Okay, you can start dinner." The two had eaten porridge, and it was almost two o'clock, so TT asked Ma Shixiang to meet again tomorrow night, and went back.

At this time, Ma Shixiang became even more anxious to know TT's real name.But in order to preserve the friendship, and it is inconvenient to pursue and ask desperately, I had to endure it.In the evening of the next day, Ma Shixiang didn't go out because he had an appointment, and waited for TT to come at the Huimin Hotel, and TT didn't come until eleven o'clock.Ma Shixiang smiled and said: "It's really early today, we can talk freely." TT smiled and sat down with him, sitting on one of Ma Shixiang's sofas.Ma Shixiang held her hand, and she also held Ma Shixiang's hand, talking to each other with smiles. Ma Shixiang looked down and saw a big diamond ring on TT's hand. TT saw Ma Shixiang looking at the ring, and quickly pulled his hands aside.

Ma Shixiang smiled and said, "Why don't you let me see the engagement ring?" TT laughed and said, "It's so funny, it's fake." Ma Shixiang said: "Are you really deceiving me that I don't know the goods?" He took TT's hand away, looked at it, and said with a smile: "If this is fake, ours is just a piece of glass." He stretched out his hand and showed TT the ring on his hand. TT said: "You are not bad." TT took off one of his rings while talking, and slowly put it on Ma Shixiang's little finger, and put it on.He smiled and said, "Your little finger is exactly the same size as my ring finger." At this time, she leaned against Ma Shixiang's arms and leaned over.Ma Shixiang was going to smell the powder on his face.She stood up and ran away laughing.With a glance, the high-heeled shoes paused and said, "Don't make trouble." Ma Shixiang laughed. TT saw a telephone on the table, so he picked up the receiver and called the number.Ma Shixiang didn't pay attention to what she said at first, and then TT said: "I'm Miss San. What's the matter? Do they want it at night? I wanted to withdraw a batch of money from the bank, but because today is a week, I put it aside. Since they want it, you can give him two hundred yuan in my box first, and write him a check tomorrow." After a pause, he smiled again: "Idiot! I can't find my key." Holding the phone, she rolled her eyes and said, "Then, I'll do it myself."

Said, put down the microphone.Ma Shixiang asked: "Do you want to go back?" TT said: "There is a small sum of money at home and I have to go back and take it out, so I have to go back." TT was afraid that he would stay, so he left as soon as he said it, went to the outside of the door, held the door knob, leaned halfway in and smiled and said, "Gu has to swing." Seeing that TT left safely, Ma Shixiang felt really uncomfortable.But her diamond ring, which she forgot to take away, is still here. Unexpectedly, she will definitely come again at night.Even if you don't come tonight, leave such an important thing here, or make a phone call to ask.Thinking of this, he waited at home and did not go out.Unexpectedly, TT went. Not only did he not come that night, he didn't even have a phone call.According to Ma Shixiang's estimate, this diamond ring was worth about one thousand yuan, and she just threw it away casually. She is really a rich person and doesn't care about it.I didn't come that night, and the next night, I thought TT was coming, but there was no news from ancient times.Ma Shixiang thought: "Strange! She and I have a very good relationship, and it seems that it will not be broken. Even if it is broken, there is still a ring here, and it should be taken! Did she forget?" When I think about it, I can't explain this mystery.On the third day, he couldn't wait any longer. Unexpectedly, TT was at Huayang Hotel, and at seven o'clock in the evening, he went to Huayang Hotel to wait.At nine o'clock, TT came, wearing a suit.When Ma Shixiang saw it, he quickly let him sit down, and asked with a smile, "Why have you been gone for three days and disappeared?" TT said: "The day before yesterday I went to Tianjin. Yesterday my father had a banquet with the staff of two embassies and asked me to accompany him." Speaking of this, TT suddenly felt that he was telling the truth, and his face blushed.He quickly changed his words and said: "Today I was going to look for you, but I met you here first." Ma Shixiang listened to it in his heart, and said: "It's noisy here, why don't you come and sit with me, and you can talk freely " TT said: "Just came, sit for a while, what are you busy with?" Hearing what she said, Ma Shixiang was clearly willing to go, so he could only hold back his temper and sit with her.After a while, two fashionable women walked up to TT, who seemed to be very familiar with them, and smiled and said to TT, "Mi Si Deng." At this point, TT looked at her, and she understood, so she stopped talking.Ma Shixiang saw it from the side, and suddenly realized that this Ms. TT must be the daughter-in-law of the former Deputy Chief Deng.But why she wanted to hide her name, it was puzzling.I had to keep this question in my heart and ask her slowly.In the social field, time is the easiest to get lost.After a while, it was twelve o'clock.In front of TT, Ma Shixiang took out the gold watch from his pocket and looked at it two or three times, and finally couldn't help but said: "It's really late, let's go." Seeing him like this, TT smiled and said: "Why can't you sit still?" Without further delay, he and Ma Shixiang took a car to Huimin Hotel.Just after entering the door, there was a man in his thirties, standing by the stairs, and softly called "Miss San" to TT. TT and Ma Shixiang walked side by side, talking all the way up the stairs, but didn't pay attention.When he arrived at Ma Shixiang's room, Ma Shixiang also smiled and called out "Miss San". TT said: "How do you know that I am three?" Ma Shixiang said: "Didn't someone call you Miss San by the stairs just now?" TT said: "No, why didn't I hear it?" Ma Shixiang said: "I saw it with my own eyes. Yes, how can you say there is no?" TT said: "What does he look like?" Ma Shixiang said: "Short and fat, wearing a blue cloth coat." TT put his hand on his cheek, thought for a while, and said with a smile: "It's even more wrong. How can such a person know me?" Seeing that TT didn't believe it, Ma Shixiang thought she had admitted a mistake, so she put it aside and didn't continue.But he smiled and asked, "Will you take a bath today?" TT squinted his eyes, looked at him, and said with a smile, "You don't care." On the couch.Ma Shixiang looked down and saw the ring on his hand, took it off, and took TT's hand. TT asked: "Do you like this ring?" Ma Shixiang tilted his head, looked at TT's face all the time, and said, "Why don't I love it?" TT said: "Since you love this ring, I can give it to you. But this one The ring, it’s a bit special, I’ll pick another one better than this one for you tomorrow.” Ma Shixiang didn’t expect him to give such an important gift when he opened his mouth, so his heart skipped a beat, and he said with a smile, “I’d like to thank you first. I can't repay you, if your father wants to be active in the future, I can help." TT said with a smile: "Who do you say my father is?" Ma Shixiang said: "Do you think I really don't know?" TT said: "I I also understand what you mean, but you guessed wrong." Ma Shixiang said: "I'm a Sherlock Holmes, as long as I meet someone, I can tell who he is, not to mention we are already very familiar with each other?" TT didn't argue any more after hearing what he said, but just smiled.Ma Shixiang thought to herself, this must be Deputy Chief Deng's young lady.A few days ago, I seemed to hear people say that Deng had a concubine, which may have been born in a concubine, so he refused to reveal his name.Thinking this way, the more I guessed, the more I was right. I didn't dare to underestimate TT, and talked to her politely until late at night. High-end hotels probably always regard afternoon as morning.They got up at twelve o'clock, opened the door, and a woman in her thirties walked in. When TT saw the woman come in, his expression changed, and he stood aside in a daze. Ma Shixiang was puzzled and also stunned.The woman went up to greet TT and called Miss San, and TT agreed with a hum.The woman turned around and greeted Ma Shixiang again, Ma Shixiang could only smile wryly.The woman then faced TT and stood aside respectfully. Only then did TT speak: "Where does Mama Li work now?" Hearing what she said, Ma Shixiang realized that she was an old servant of TT's family.Look at the woman wearing a rough serge gown, which is clean, with a thick silver bracelet on her hand.She is not like ordinary mothers who comb their hair with a cocked tail, but she has a braided head, and a gold ear pick is inserted obliquely in her jet-black hair.Just looking at this point, I know that I am not a casual old mother.When Li Ma saw TT asking her, she said: "Miss San, I'm free now. I think that for that little thing, Miss quits my job. She will never be an old reporter. I have to ask Miss to tell the master and wife that I will give you a reward." It's a bowl of rice. My little third son was looking for someone here yesterday, and met Miss, is she still waiting outside the door? "Unexpectedly, after hearing these ordinary words from her, TT showed a very disturbed expression on his face. After thinking about it, he took out a roll of banknotes from his purse and said to Mama Li: "You are probably in a difficult situation now, and I know that, you can use this little money for pocket money. "Speaking, she handed it over. Li Ma took the banknote, looked at it, and put it on the table casually. On her dark face, she forced a smile, and said: "I dare not use Miss's money. But Xiao Saner has been idle for a long time, so he begged the lady to give him a bowl of rice. "When TT was talking to her, he saw that the door was still open. He went up and closed the door. Then he talked to Mama Li and said, "You know me. I don't care about three or four hundred yuan, but I really don't have any money with me today. "Mama Li smiled and said: "Can't you write a check? "TT said: "Do you think that I am like my father, that the bank can recognize my handwriting, and just write on a piece of paper?If I want to pay, I have to write a check.How do you think I can walk around with a checkbook? "Mama Li smiled and said: "This is the money that the lady is willing to give me, and I didn't ask the lady for it, so I just have to be inconvenient. "Speaking, she turned around and was about to leave. TT went up and grabbed her and said, "Don't leave, wait until I come up with a solution. "Speaking, he went into the inner room, fell on the chair and cried. Ma Shixiang sat on the side, in a daze, unable to make a sound.At this time, he saw TT walking in, so he followed in, and asked softly: "Who is this person? Don't cry!" TT wiped his tears and said, "My personality is about to go bankrupt, why don't I cry?" Ma Shixiang He asked again: "Who is this person?" TT said: "She is an old servant of my family. Because her husband was working as a detective outside, I was afraid of trouble, so I resigned her. She has a son who is also from Beijing. The gangsters are not to be messed with. Today's incident was broken by her. If you don't give her a little sweetness, well, she will come to my house and tell it directly. Or if it spreads outside, how can I see it? People? Otherwise, her son is outside the door, so he knows what she's doing?" Ma Shixiang didn't listen, and she became cold when she heard it.After a long time, he said, "How much does he want?" TT said: "Who knows?" Ma Shixiang said: "I'll sit inside, you go and ask her. If it only costs two or three hundred yuan, I have it ready-made in my box." TT walked out without saying a word.Ma Shixiang listened across the room, but another man spoke.The man said: "I'm not sorry for the third lady. The third lady is young and has been bullied. I want to vent my anger on the master. He is an official, so that's even better. We have to ask him. Things, but what they should do?" At this time, Li Ma said, "You have something to say, why are you shouting?" Hearing what they said, Ma Shixiang's heart skipped a beat.Later I heard TT say: "Xiao San'er, I also know that you are short on money. I don't have much money on me. Oh! I have a diamond ring here, worth seven or eight hundred yuan. You can use it for a change." I heard a man say: "I don't dare to take it. You!" I heard TT say: "Do you still think it's too little?" When he said that, TT walked in.When Ma Shixiang looked at it, the ring on her hand was gone. TT said softly: "You are here, and it is not easy for him to send me away. I wonder if you have a check here?" Ma Shixiang thought it was asking for money, and said, "No need to use a check, I have more than two hundred in my box." Give them all the money.” TT said: “I’ve already bought a ring, why give them the money back? I came up with an idea, you just write him a check for one thousand yuan, wait He took it and left. As soon as he went out, there were plenty of telephones in the house. You called the bank and told him not to withdraw the money. If you said that there was no deposit, he would be empty-handed. He left, and I also left. He retrieved it, as the saying goes: "To catch a thief is to be dirty..." At this point, Ma Shixiang suddenly stopped. Ma Shixiang saw that TT took a ring with his own eyes, and felt very sorry. Although he only had more than a thousand yuan in the bank, Fortunately, he acted according to TT's method. If he couldn't take it, why not try it. After making up his mind, he immediately agreed, took out the bank's check in the box, wrote 1,000 yuan, stamped his own stamp, and handed it over. TT.TT went outside and said to Mama Li: "This is one thousand yuan, you can let go of it.Otherwise, I have no other choice but to shout as much as you like. "Speaking, I handed the check to Mama Li. They were talking outside, and Ma Shixiang was inside the room, and they could hear every sentence clearly. I thought that they would leave after the check was handed out. It was a quarrel, talking for a while, and talking again and again, forcing TT to either cry or laugh, and sat on the side in a daze. About half an hour later, the phone rang outside, and TT was Sitting by the desk computer, he connected the headset and said, "Huimin Hotel No. 8.No, wrong. " Just hang up the phone.At this time, Li Ma persuaded his son and said a lot of good things before leaving. Ma Shixiang could hear clearly from the next door, but when she looked through the door curtain, there was no one there, so she walked out with a stone in her heart.Looking at TT, he was still lying on the sofa chair, his shoulders shrugged, and he was crying.Ma Shixiang asked, "Did they take the check?" TT turned his head, wiped his tears, and said, "Hurry up and call the bank and tell him not to pay him." Ma Shixiang listened to her. , Really call the bank where the deposit is made, and ask not to pay.Who knows that the other side promised: "The money has been taken away." Ma Shixiang said: "No, I just went out here, how can I go to the bank?" .Hearing this, Ma Shixiang felt strange and heartbroken, so he put down the phone. TT was disappointed when he saw that, he clung to Ma Shixiang's hand and said, "I'm sorry, this was my negligence. When the young man was accepting the check, he stood outside the door for a moment, but I didn't pay attention. Maybe at that time, he Give the check to someone else and go to collect it first. Because they are detectives, they should be careful at every step. I think our method has been guessed by him long ago. No wonder, the phone rang here just now. I don’t think it’s a wrong call It’s the secret code of their accomplices. But I will never tire you of this money, and I will pay you back this afternoon.” Seeing TT’s generosity, Ma Shixiang agreed to accept her money and said, “That’s What do you mean, you have to suffer alone?" TT said: "I can't sit in this place for a long time, let's meet again at Huayang Hotel tonight. It's best for you to move there, and then he brought a pistol to find us , I’m not afraid of him anymore.” After speaking, TT held the money bag, held the door and stretched out his head, took a look and left.Ma Shixiang was flustered at this time, and he didn't know why TT was so scared, and he wondered whether he hadn't jumped out of the reason.Just thinking about it here, I saw TT folded back and quickly closed the door.He immediately sat beside Ma Shixiang, supported his shoulder with one hand, leaned his head in his arms, patted his chest with the other hand and said, "I'm scared to death." Seeing this, Ma Shixiang became suspicious again, and hurriedly Asked: "What's the matter? What's the matter?" TT raised his head and blushed and said, "I just passed by the dining room and saw a man in a suit eating there with three people. He was facing outwards, and his back looked like my father's. , I didn’t dare to go there, I turned backwards. Please go to the dining room to see if that man has a beard on his mouth? If there is a beard, I'm afraid it's his old man, and I can't go out yet. "Ma Shixiang said: "Then, you sit here and I'll go out and have a look. "Speaking, he walked into the dining room. He looked at the dining room, but it was inconvenient to turn around like this, so he had to walk over, and then turned back. He looked at the round table on the east side of the dining room, and there was indeed a man in a suit sitting , but there is no beard on his mouth. He thought, this must not be TT's father, so he walked back to the room and wanted to tell TT. He opened the door and went in, but TT sat there blankly. Ma Shi Xiang said: "It doesn't matter, that person doesn't have a beard, of course it's not your father. "TT said:" That's very good, but I'm timid, please send me to the gate. "When she said that, she stood up and looked at Ma Shixiang. Seeing that she had to send her out by herself, Ma Shixiang couldn't refuse, so she closed the door, went downstairs, and sent her to the gate of Huimin Hotel before turning back. He went into the room, sat for a while, and then planned to go out, so he came to open the box.Looking down, I couldn't help but be surprised. It turned out that the lock on the small suitcase beside the bed had been unlocked by someone.I hurriedly opened the box to have a look, the contents inside the box were messed up, and more than 600 yuan of banknotes had disappeared.He thought, who took this?When I sent TT out just now, I didn't ask the waiter to lock the door. Could it be that the thief has come in now?连忙按着电铃,叫一个茶房进来,把丢了钱的情形告诉他。茶房道:“我们坐的地方,就在楼口上,上来一只耗子,我们也会看见,决计没有进来一个人。”马士香一想也对,他们是坐在楼四,专门等客人叫唤的,而且我这房门,他们看得见,青天白日,哪里有贼进来?自己愣住了一会子,心里恍然大悟,便叫茶房出去,自己再来找找可丢了别的东西?寻了一会,还好,别的东西,都还没丢,仅仅的丢了这六百多块钱。 马士香仔细一想,这位TT女士,哪里是什么次长女公子,又是什么交际明星?简直是为我这一张支票而来。不用说,那个李妈和那个小三儿,全是她同党。自己前前后后一想,一点儿不错,这决是拆白党。自己醉心交际家,今日也想学,明日也想学,不料初次上场,就碰了这么一个钉子。越想越悔,越悔又越气,闷闷的坐了一会儿,咽不下这口气,使关着房,做了一篇稿子。稿子做好,便坐了汽车到何剑尘家里来,找何剑尘。 他虽和何剑尘有些交情,可是并没有专诚拜谒过,今天他突然而来,何剑尘却是不明其意之所在,只得请他在客厅里坐。谁知马士香只是说些闲话,说道:“这两天天气暖和了许多。”何剑尘道:“天气暖和了许多。”马士香道:“这两天,常到公园里玩玩吗?”何剑尘道:“偶然也去一两回。”马士香坐着抽了一支烟卷,然后说道:“兄弟这里有一篇稿子,要请老哥在贵报发表。'脱时,红着脸,在身上掏了半天,掏出一张稿子来,交给何剑尘。何剑尘以为一定是一桩军国大事,及至打开从头到尾一看,却是说有一位住旅馆的阔客,受了女拆白的骗,丢了一千六百块钱。何剑尘看看稿子,看看马土香的脸,早已了然于胸。马士香见何剑尘注意他,未免有些不好意思。何剑尘笑道:”这是你老哥今友的事吗?“马士香道:”嗐!别谈起,就是我上了这么一回当。我倒不为别的,把这稿子登了出去,好让人家注意。教她在北京不能存身,和社会上除此一害。“何剑尘道:”登我们是当然登的。依我说,你老哥就算不幸之中大幸了。你若是身边方便些,也许十倍此数哩。他们弄了这笔钱去,恐怕也不过暂为躲避一会儿,你想她离开北京,恐怕不行呢。就譬如以老哥自身论,你和她见了面,你能说破这事,叫警察拿她吗?所以越是高等拆白,越和上流社会人往来,她虽害你,还叫你有难言之隐呢。“马士香经了这回事情,长了不少的见识,觉得何剑尘的话有理,不住的点头。坐了一会,也就走了。
