My Spy Years

  Chapter 16 Visiting Xiu Gongshen (recommendation ticket for collection)

  After getting off duty, Cheng Qianfan didn't go directly to Jin Kemu's dinner party, but went to Ma Sinan Road first.

  The sky has already darkened, and the street lights are light and dim.

   Both sides of the road are full of green plane trees and exquisite garden houses, very quiet.

  About ten years ago, the French Concession authorities wanted to build a neat "Oriental Paris" in the center of the French Concession, so they chose Ma Sinan Road, which is located in the core of the French Concession, to build these independent garden houses.

  These bungalows are carefully planned European-style bungalows, paying attention to artistry, masonry structure, plus a small garden in front of each building, somewhat similar to the holiday villas of the French middle class in Paris.

  This is also a noble location called "Shangzhijiao" by Shanghai locals.

  No. 21, Ma Sinan Road, the residence of Xiu Gongshen, an interpreter of the Political Department of the French Concession.

  Cheng Qianfan held a black umbrella and stood quietly by the road outside the door.

  He took a deep breath, the drizzle filled the air, and the small bungalow seemed to be covered in smoke and sand, making it impossible to see through.

  Just as he couldn't see through Xiu Gongshen.

  I have to be a hundred and twenty careful, and put on a good show.

  Cheng Qianfan felt a tired feeling flooding from the bottom of his heart.

  He rubbed his face, reminding himself to cheer up.

  …

   "Madam, Master Qian Fan is here." Maid Wu Ma took Cheng Qian Fan's police cap and umbrella, hung them up, put them away, poured tea, and shouted to the hostess.

  Xiu Gongshen's wife He Xuelin is a dignified middle-aged woman who wears glasses and is very intellectual and charming.

   "Qianfan is here, have you eaten? I asked Mama Wu to cook two more side dishes." He Xuelin greeted Cheng Qianfan warmly.

   "Master's wife is good." Cheng Qianfan hurriedly got up to say hello, seeing that Wu's mother was going to be busy, he hurriedly said, "Master's wife, Inspector Jin is hosting a banquet tonight, Qianfan will not bother Master's wife today."

   "You child, you haven't come for a few days." He Xuelin said angrily, "Be sure to remember to come to eat next time."

   "I will definitely come next time." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile, "The snowflake crab bucket that my teacher made with her own hands last time, Qianfan always drools when he thinks about it."

   "You're just greedy." He Xuelin said with a smile, but she was also happy to hear that Cheng Qianfan liked her cooking.

  She and Xiu Gongshen have no children, only one daughter is now abroad, so it is inevitable to miss the child, so she loves Cheng Qianfan, a sensible junior, very much.

   "Sir, you are back, Master Qianfan is here." Wu Ma took Xiu Gongshen's briefcase, helped hang up the top hat and coat, and put the civilized stick on one side.

   "Teacher." Cheng Qianfan got up and greeted respectfully.

   "I was delayed by something when I got off work." Xiu Gongshen took the hot towel handed over by his wife, wiped his cheeks, turned his head and said angrily at Cheng Qianfan, "Come to my study."

  Cheng Qianfan hurriedly followed, seeing his wife winking that she would come to rescue if something happened, she patted her chest childishly, meaning it was fine.

   "Hum!" Xiu Gongshen snorted without looking back.

  Cheng Qianfan smiled and hurriedly followed.

  …

  The two came to the study, and Cheng Qianfan closed the door gently.

   "I'm brave! Hmph!" Xiu Gongshen glanced at Cheng Qianfan who was standing respectfully, and said.

"teacher-"

  Xiu Gongshen waved his hand and interrupted Cheng Qianfan, "You are too reckless today."

   "Teacher, you don't know, that old Mo has been targeting me, and I can't bear it." Cheng Qianfan said casually while using the coffee machine skillfully.

   "Why don't you tell me?" Xiu Gongshen said angrily, "You tell me, and I can say hello. In the three-acre land of the police station, the teacher can't see you being bullied."

   "How embarrassing." Cheng Qianfan turned his head away.

   "Face, I tell you to save face." Xiu Gongshen was in a hurry, and gave Cheng Qianfan a headache.

   "Face, what face do you have at a young age? Is face so important? My students and nephews who are practicing brachio are being bullied, and I don't even know it. I don't have face!"

  Cheng Qianfan showed a strange expression, "Teacher, I didn't think carefully and didn't take care of your face."

   "You brat, you're mad at me, do I mean that?"

  Cheng Qianfan laughed.

  …

   "Nong Xiao Chenguang is very good at threshold." Xiu Gongshen said angrily, "Tell me, why did you choose to do it at this time?"

   "Teacher, how did you know?" Cheng Qianfan showed a surprised and thoughtful expression.

"snort."

   "Teacher, didn't you mention that Inspector Jin is a cunning old man." Cheng Qianfan didn't dare to smile anymore, and said seriously, "I just tried to force him to express his opinion."

   "You figured this out yourself?" Xiu Gongshen stared at Cheng Qianfan for a while, then said slowly.

   "Yes." Cheng Qianfan nodded, showing an embarrassed expression again, "It's just that, after thinking about it later, I was a little reckless."

   "Where is the recklessness?"

   "I should talk to the teacher first." Cheng Qianfan glanced at Xiu Gongshen when he was speaking, afraid that he would get angry.

   "Hmph, what else?" Xiu Gongshen snorted, his face softened a little.

"The other thing is that I didn't think about it comprehensively. I just thought about my own plans. After I did it, I realized that I was not calm and thought out properly. I didn't consider President Qin's reaction to this matter." Cheng Qianfan scratched his head, Said embarrassingly.

   "That's why you made the excuse that Mo Shouli was injured on duty?" Xiu Gongshen sneered.

   "You can't hide anything from you, teacher." Cheng Qianfan gave a thumbs up and said with a smile.

   "Huh." Xiu Gongshen snorted coldly, "You are still a little quick-witted."

  …

   "But it's like stealing a bell from one's ears. You can't hide it from Mr. Qin." Cheng Qianfan scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "I wanted to help, but instead caused trouble for the teacher."

   "I'm sober now." Xiu Gongshen knocked on the table and snorted, "You boy, think twice when you do things in the future, your little cleverness is far behind."

   "Yes, what the teacher taught is true." Cheng Qianfan heaved a sigh of relief, showing a joyful expression, knowing that his reckless behavior was considered a "pass".

   Immediately, he asked worriedly, "Where is Chief Inspector Tan?"

   "Mo Shouli performed bravely and was injured on duty." Xiu Gongshen knocked on the table and said slowly, "Didn't you say so?"

Seeing Cheng Qianfan's puzzled expression, Xiu Gongshen laughed, and dialed and said, "Tan Detai won't accept your rhetoric, and will only feel fooled. I have an appointment with Tan Detai for tea tomorrow, and you come too. Inspector Qin will report on today's arrest work."

  Cheng Qianfan thought for a moment, and suddenly realized that the same words, the same thing, different people, the result will naturally be different.

  The excuse he made up, in his mouth, is not bullshit.

  However, it's different when it comes to Xiu Gongshen's mouth. Qin Detai has to give Xiu Gongshen face.

  As for Cheng Qianfan himself, as Cheng Qianfan, he is naturally not qualified to report to Tan Detai.

  He appeared there, incidentally, as a gesture of expression:

  Apologize to the elders as a nephew.

  Tan Detai saved face, and when he said that he was just kidding around, the incident would be over.

   This is also to convey a message to the outside world. The relationship between Xiu Gongshen and Qin Detai is as usual.

   "Thank you, teacher, for taking your troubles." Cheng Qianfan said gratefully.

   Ask for favorites, recommend tickets, monthly tickets, and rewards, thank you very much.
