The Rise of the Writers of the Republic of China

Chapter 743 742 [Dance]

To be honest, for people who don't want to be in the limelight, the dance is really not interesting.

Zhou Hexuan caught several foreign ambassadors and quarreled with them, but finally no one bothered him anymore, and then he took his wife and sister-in-law to hide in a corner to drink.

"Mr. Zhou doesn't like the excitement?" Kong Lingyi came over and asked.

Zhou Hexuan smiled and said: "I don't like unnecessary excitement. If like-minded friends are together, then naturally the more lively the better."

"I also like to play with good friends." Kong Lingyi echoed.

Zhou Hexuan introduced: "This is my wife Zhang Leyi, and my sister-in-law Zhang Manyi."

Kong Lingyi immediately greeted: "Hello, Mrs. Zhou, hello Miss Zhang."

"Hello, Miss Kong." Zhang Leyi said with a smile, while Zhang Manyi just smiled and nodded.

Kong Lingyi helped Zhou Hexuan fill half a glass of wine and said, "On behalf of my brother Lingkan, I would like to apologize to everyone for what happened at noon today."

"It doesn't matter, we don't know each other without fighting." Zhou Hexuan smiled and raised his glass.

Neither Zhou Hexuan nor Zhang Leyi had any desire to chat, but Zhang Manyi and Kong Lingyi were similar in age, and both had recently graduated from a missionary school in Shanghai. The two young girls had a lot of topics in common, and they sat together and chatted non-stop.

Not to brag or to be slanderous, the eldest lady Kong Lingyi is very rare. She has a gentle personality, decent manners, and extremely upright views. People can't help but wonder if she is a biological child of the Kong family. If we really want to find a fault, we can only accuse Kong Lingyi of being too extravagant. The clothes she wears are enough for an ordinary family of five to live for 20 years.

"Why are you hiding here?" Kong Lingwei came over at some point.

Zhou Hexuan asked, "What about you?"

"It feels boring," Kong Lingwei pointed at a young woman in the distance. "I just met a newlywed young woman. I couldn't help but touch her twice, and she was so scared that she didn't dare to speak."

"It's weird if it doesn't scare people." Zhou Hexuan said with a smile.

Kong Lingwei asked for advice: "Brother Zhou, do you think I should go to aviation school or join the air force directly?"

Zhou Hexuan automatically ignored the other party's address and said in surprise: "Do you really want to fly a plane?"

"Of course, flying a plane is so exciting. It would be even more exciting if you could fly a plane to fight." Kong Lingwei said excitedly.

Zhou Hexuan suddenly felt that it was very interesting. If he could deceive the future demon king into an aviation hero who fought bravely, it would be considered as a accumulation of evil virtue. He smiled and said: "I suggest you apply for aviation school. If you don't want to study in China, I have a private flying club in the United States."

"You still play in a private flying club? That's okay, I don't know how to play like you." Kong Lingwei said with admiration.

Zhou Hexuan said: "If you decide, I will send a telegram to the United States later, and I will ensure that you are addicted to flying planes every day."

"Then it's a deal," Kong Lingwei raised his neck to drink up the white wine and gnawed on the chicken leg. "By the way, why don't you continue writing martial arts novels?"

"Do you like watching?" Zhou Hexuan asked.

Kong Lingwei said: "I often watch it all night long. I like your "The Condor" trilogy the most, and "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman" by Huanzhu Louzhu. I heard that you know Huanzhu Louzhu?"

"Old friends." Zhou Hexuan said.

Kong Lingwei slapped his thigh fiercely, making his pants all greasy, and said angrily: "Then you should quickly ask the master of Huanzhu Tower to stop writing the side stories. The main story of "Shu Mountain" is being serialized extremely slowly, but he actually still has time to write the side stories. It's simply... What do you mean by that? Yes, you are not doing your job properly!"

Zhou Hexuan laughed loudly: "That's him cheating on the royalties."

Li Shoumin can be called the god of water in the novel world of the Republic of China. He was crazy about the word count. When he got stuck, he would just write a side story to fool around. Anyway, he had to get the royalties first.

In history, Li Shoumin needed to support his family, and when his literary thoughts were exhausted, he even took opium to find inspiration. Fortunately, Zhou Hexuan has arranged a stable job now, and he has not fallen out with his father-in-law, so he does not have to be forced to take opium like in the original time and space.

"Just to defraud manuscript fees?" Kong Lingwei suddenly became depressed and said to Zhou Hexuan, "Give me the address of the owner of Huanzhu Tower later."

"What do you want to do?" Zhou Hexuan asked.

Kong Lingwei smiled and said: "Send him 1,000 oceans, and then send him a bullet. He can choose which one he chooses."

Zhou Hexuan couldn't help but think of the days when he was forced to change by Chu Yupu's force. It was really hard to describe.

Kong Lingwei was about to speak again when suddenly dance music sounded.

Kong Lingyi asked Zhang Leyi politely: "Can I dance with Mr. Zhou?"

"Of course." Zhang Leyi smiled.

As Zhou Hexuan and Kong Lingyi stood up and walked onto the dance floor, Kong Lingwei also approached Zhang Leyi: "Sister Zhang, let's dance too."

Zhang Leyi pointed at Kong Lingwei's hands and smiled without saying anything. This guy just gnawed two chicken legs with his bare hands.

"It's easy!" Kong Lingwei called a waiter and asked him to hold a vodka bottle and turn it sideways. Then he washed his hands with white wine in the lobby, soaking a large piece of the hotel's expensive carpet.

This tutor is simply amazing.

Zhang Leyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so she bravely went to dance with Kong Lingwei. Fortunately, Kong Lingwei treated his friends with kindness and did not have any other thoughts about Zhang Leyi. He behaved himself throughout the whole process.

Zhang Manyi was also invited to dance by a high-ranking official's son, but her eyes always glanced in Zhou Hexuan's direction.

It's not just his sister-in-law who is paying attention to Zhou Hexuan, many senior officials of the government are looking at him. Although the matter at noon had been resolved, it spread throughout Nanjing's political circles. At this time, everyone was extremely surprised to see Zhou Hexuan and Kong Lingyi dancing - it seemed that the two families had a good relationship.

Especially the spy chief Xu Enzeng, the future controller of the Central Command, is a leader of the CC department. He also brought his lover to the dance today. He originally wanted to take the opportunity to provoke a fight between Zhou Hexuan and the Kong family, but when he saw this situation, he immediately gave up his original plan.

After the dance, Xu Enzeng immediately came to Zhou Hexuan, smiled and shook hands and said: "Mr. Zhou, I have long admired your name."

"Both each other," Zhou Hexuan looked at the woman next to Xu Enzeng and said, "Is this Mrs. Xu?"

Xu Enzeng introduced with a normal expression: "This is my good friend, Ms. Fei Xia."

What good friend?

Let’s just talk about my little wife.

Xu Enzeng's current wife is Wang Suqing. She was originally the wife of his friend. When the friend went abroad, he asked Xu Enzeng to take care of her. The so-called friend's wife is not polite. When that friend returned from studying abroad, he discovered that his wife and Xu Enzeng had several children, especially those born in the year of the Pig, one per year.

In fact, Wang Suqing is not Xu Enzeng's official wife. His first wife and his daughter are eating fast and chanting Buddha in their hometown, and they haven't seen each other for several years.

Fei Xia stood next to Xu Enzeng with a smile like a flower, shook hands and greeted: "Hello Mr. Zhou, my little lady has admired you for a long time."

"It's an honor." Zhou Hexuan responded with a smile.

Fei Xia, a well-known traitor to the Communist Party, used gentle methods to instigate many underground parties.

This woman is indeed very beautiful, no wonder Xu Enzeng is fascinated by her. She also has a good way of talking. She chatted with Zhang Leyi enthusiastically, and all kinds of subtle flattery made Zhang Leyi smile.

Xu En was related to the great capitalist Xu Xinliu, and Xu Xinliu was related to Xu Zhimo. The three of them came from the same ancestral hall a hundred years ago. The circle of celebrities in the Republic of China was so small. Everyone was related to them. Celebrities from big families often appeared in groups.

Xu Enzeng naturally talked about Xu Zhimo. Although this guy studied in the United States majoring in mechanical and electrical engineering, he was very good at talking about poetry and literature. Moreover, it is very fashionable, talking about Eliot, and comparing Zhou Hexuan and Xu Zhimo with Eliot.

Compared with Dai Li, Xu Enzeng is not like a spy chief, but more like a personable and cultural person who talks about the past and the present.

"Speaking of literature, does Ms. Ding Ling still live in Mr. Xu's house?" Zhou Hexuan asked with a smile.

Xu Enzeng immediately became alert and said, "Where did Mr. Zhou hear this rumor? How could Ms. Ding Ling live in my house?"

Zhou Hexuan said: "I have my own information channels. You can ask Chairman Chiang to confirm this."

Ding Ling's whereabouts are very secret. Everyone knows that she was caught by the agents, but they don't know where she is being held. Xu Enzeng couldn't help but wonder: Could it be that Zhou Hexuan was also Chiang Kai-shek's chief spy?

"I want to meet Ding Ling." Zhou Hexuan made the request directly without any nonsense.

Xu Enzeng asked: "Mr. Zhou and Ding Ling have an old relationship?"

"Old friends from Peking." Zhou Hexuan said.

"Okay." Xu Enzeng readily agreed.
