I have ten trillion licking dog gold
Chapter 1378 Endless life
Inside a closed track.
The two tall and strong horses chased each other, as fast as the wind. After three rounds of stalemate, the chestnut one was better and crossed the finish line first with a slight advantage.
"hiss--"
The powerful front hooves were raised high, and then dropped. Shi Qianqian sat steadily on the horse's back, one hand holding the reins, the other holding the whip. A smile of relief and complacency spread across her oval face under the anti-collision helmet. She turned around and looked at her defeated opponent.
"It seems some people still need to practice."
Boss Jiang, who lost to a woman again, was not depressed at all. He wore the same equestrian suit and looked quite handsome. It was a pity that he was riding a dark horse, otherwise he would have been a prince charming.
"Look how proud you are of beating me, a novice."
"You, a newbie?"
Shi Qianqian sneered.
"if not."
Jiang Chen said: "This is my first time at the racecourse."
"Just brag. If you lose, you lose. No one will laugh at you. Who can be as skilled as you in horse riding for the first time?"
"Believe it or not."
Jiang Chen dismounted and handed the horse to the horse trainer who came over. In comparison, Shi Qianqian's movements were indeed more skillful than his, and she almost jumped off the horse's back.
"You never say anything stubborn, do you?"
Throwing the whip to the horse trainer, Shi Qianqian took off her helmet and said, "After becoming rich, don't nouveau riche learn golf, horse riding, red wine, tea ceremony, and other things?"
It’s really fucking insightful.
Jiang Chen smiled and responded simply, "Am I a nouveau riche?"
Shi Qianqian glanced at him, took off her cumbersome protective equipment, handed them all to the horse trainer, and then shook her hair.
Tsk.
So heroic.
"What are you looking at? Have you never seen a beautiful woman?"
Jiang Chen wiped his face, "The sweat is all over my face."
"I don't dislike you, but you dislike me?"
Hearing this, Jiang Chen immediately shut up.
This bitch.
What a shameless talk.
There are so many horse trainers around.
He started making dirty jokes after just a few words.
After the guests removed unnecessary equipment, the horse trainers quickly led the horses away.
Shi Qianqian drank electrolyte water and walked slowly along the track while saying, "I heard that the old man of the Fang family passed away."
"how do you know."
"My dad told me that. You know, he pays a lot of attention to this kind of news."
Businessmen, especially top businessmen, not only need to be good at doing business, but also need to have a keen eye for changes in the times.
"Isn't Uncle Shi retired?"
"He is retired now, but it is impossible to change the habits he has developed over his lifetime."
Shi Qianqian tightened the bottle cap and said, "Congratulations, you have pushed down another mountain."
"What does it have to do with me?"
"Everyone knows that the prince of the Fang family only follows Song Chaoge's lead. Given your relationship with Song Chaoge, the decline of the Fang family is not a big benefit to you."
Jiang Chen, who was walking beside him, was silent for a while, "Did Uncle Shi tell you this too?"
"Do you still need my dad? The feud between you and Song Chaoge was almost published in the newspaper. There shouldn't be many people who don't know about it."
"Song Chaoge and I did have some conflicts in the past, but that's all in the past. You know there are no eternal enemies in the world."
Shi Qianqian, who comes from a business family, naturally agrees with this point. "There are no eternal enemies in the world, but there are eternal rivals in love. There is a saying that goes, the hatred for someone's wife is irreconcilable."
Ever since we went to see a men's doctor together, he has become more and more unscrupulous.
In the past, it was just innuendo, nothing like it is now.
Even though Shi Qianqian had already pointed out the name, Comrade Jiang Chen was really an expert at playing dumb. He responded calmly and quickly: "Is Song Chaoge married? When did it happen?"
"If it weren't for you, he would probably have gotten married."
"..."
Jiang Chen said: "Don't talk nonsense."
"There are some things that are useless if you deceive yourself. As a man, you can ignore the shame of being humiliated, but you can't ignore the love of someone else. You are also a man, you know it very well."
Jiang Chen nodded unexpectedly and decisively, without singing a different tune just for the sake of singing a different tune.
"That makes sense."
Shi Qianqian was surprised, she stopped, looked at him and smiled: "So you agree?"
"I agree. Why not?" Jiang Chen also stopped.
"Then why don't you be smarter."
Jiang Chen remained calm and asked, "How do you learn to be smart?"
"A gentleman should promote the good in others, not the evil in others. In fact, the conflict between you and Song Chaoge is very simple. Return the male protagonist to him."
Jiang Chen completely understood what was going on.
It is said that before you can resist foreign aggression, you must first stabilize the country.
But this lady did the opposite and implemented the policy of "pacifying the country before repelling foreign aggression".
"You mean I should keep my distance from Cao Jinse?"
Jiang Chen stopped pretending to be stupid.
Shi Qianqian remained silent, but at the same time, a teachable look appeared on her face.
"Are you afraid of her?"
Jiang Chen asked immediately. He was too ignorant of the ways of the world. Even if he guessed this in his heart, there was no need to ask.
"Who am I afraid of?"
"Cao Jinse."
"Why should I be afraid of her?"
"I'm afraid I can't beat her at dice."
Boss Jiang is indeed an artist. His speech is so eloquent that Shi Qianqian was dazed for a moment. After a while, she reacted and wanted to spray him to death with a mouthful of electrolyte water.
"Can you please have some shame? I am only thinking about you. If you can't easily kill an enemy, then don't make him your enemy."
Jiang Chen nodded and stopped poking at the other party's sore spot.
"You are right, but there is one thing."
"Which point."
"Stolen love is indeed an eternal hatred, but the premise must be true love. Do you think someone like Song Chaoge will fall in love with someone?"
Shi Qianqian suddenly fell silent.
"So there is no such thing as stealing someone's love, but thank you for your concern anyway."
Jiang Chen thanked him calmly and politely.
"So, you and Cao Jinse are really having an affair?"
"I said no, do you believe me?"
Shi Qianqian shook her head without hesitation.
"Since you already have the only subjective answer in your mind, what's the point of asking this kind of question? I'm going to Kyoto soon, why don't you come with me and ask her directly?"
"You think I don't dare?"
Jiang Chen shook his head, "You are Shi Qianqian, there is nothing you dare not do. Then you should arrange your schedule..."
"Did I say I was going?"
Jiang Chen was slightly stunned.
Shi Qianqian turned her head, her long hair flying up, soft and silky, and it almost hit Jiang Chen's face, but fortunately he took a step back in time.
Shi Qianqian walked forward without looking back, and only heard a sentence floating in the air.
"I tell you, playing dice, even if there are ten of her, no one can beat me!"
The competitiveness and stubbornness that comes from the bone marrow.
Jiang Chen stopped where he was, his face trembling. He wanted to laugh but didn't, and it was very difficult to hold it back.
----
"Chirp, chirp, chirp..."
The clear bird calls that come from nowhere create a 360-degree surround sound effect.
This most prestigious cemetery in Kyoto and even in the whole country is shrouded in gauze-like morning mist. Inside the blue brick wall, two rows of vigorous Chinese pines support the dark green dome, turning the winding corridor into a deep tunnel. Scattered February orchids peek out from the cracks in the stone steps, and their purple and white petals are covered with dew and tremble slightly, like fragments of elegiac couplets blown away by the wind.
The columbarium with an ochre-red hip roof stands quietly high up, with its flying eaves and ridges lifting up a few wisps of drifting clouds. The copper door knocker is polished to a shine by time, and the mixed scent of sandalwood and white chrysanthemum wafts between the pillars of the porch. A group of tombstones spread out on the gentle slope, with their white marble surfaces reflecting the morning light, like countless half-opened classics, engraved with magnificent chapters of different eras.
In the old park area on the west side, several century-old ginkgo trees were sprouting new goose yellow leaves. Jiang Chen stopped in front of a lying tombstone, bent down and gently placed a bunch of fresh white lilies on the ground. The wind blew, and the sound of pine waves filled the entire cemetery, startling three or five gray magpies.
"You're a little late."
Cao Jinse, who was standing beside him, watched the magpie fly over the memorial wall engraved with a five-pointed star.
Jiang Chen, who had clearly gotten up very early, stood up and said, "Didn't you forbid me to come?"
"Don't speak nonsense in front of the dead."
It was as if time had gone back, and Cao Jinse became as solemn and dignified as before.
From the beginning to the end, until Mr. Fang was buried, she had not informed Jiang Chen of any relevant information, which actually reflected her position. Many times, attitudes do not need to be clearly and directly expressed.
"Let's go, so no one sees us."
Jiang Chen stood up.
"You came here so early just to give me a bouquet of flowers?"
"if not?"
Jiang Chen asked back.
Cao Jinse pursed her lips and looked at him silently.
"If we leave, it will cause trouble if the Fang family finds us."
After taking a look at the tombstone, Cao Jinse left with him.
"I heard Fang Jun is planning to join the army?"
Jiang Chen asked.
"how do you know."
“Is this some kind of state secret?”
Jiang Chen spoke in a relaxed tone.
"Very well-informed."
Cao Jinse gave his affirmation.
"Fang Jun has finally come to his senses and returned to the right path. This is the best consolation for Mr. Fang."
"Aren't you worried that Fang Jun is secretly trying to take advantage of the situation and bide his time to retaliate against you?"
Jiang Chen didn't laugh, nor was he nervous. He was just like this cemetery, quiet and peaceful.
"I wasn't afraid of him before, so why would I be afraid of him in the future?"
Very crazy.
Very proud.
But it leaves people speechless.
The future trend of the Fang family has been determined. It will not collapse overnight, but it will definitely go downhill. They couldn't defeat Mr. Fang even during his prime, let alone in the future.
"Have you seen Fang Jun since he was released from prison?"
"I've seen it."
Cao Jinse said: "He has changed a lot from the impression I had of him."
"He wanted to join the army, and he even went to Sichuan, which shows that he had a great enlightenment."
"You even know where he enlisted?"
"Is there any need to make a fuss?" Jiang Chen asked back.
"Make you proud."
Cao Jinse pouted childishly.
Jiang Chen raised his head, and the morning sun passed over the ancient courtyard wall, then penetrated through the layers of obstructions, casting mottled light and shadows.
"I know everything is empty after death, but I am sad that I cannot see the whole country united. When the king's army conquers the Central Plains in the north, don't forget to tell your father during the family sacrifice. Young Master Fang, you will have a long way to go."
Cao Jinse frowned, tilted her head, and finally couldn't help it.
"Who told you that?"
Jiang Chen stopped playing tricks.
"Wang Heting."
Cao Jinse suddenly realized, "You have such a good relationship with him?"
"That's not the case. He and Liuli are friends. They met when they stopped in the East China Sea on their way back from Kyoto."
"Among the younger generation, Wang Heting is indeed a leader, with no obvious shortcomings in any aspect."
Jiang Chen agreed very much. Although Wang Heting definitely belonged to the southern faction and had nothing to do with Kyoto, Cao Jinse's evaluation was very objective.
Jiang Chen has seen some of the "trendsetters" of the younger generation in China, and they should be considered as representatives among them.
For example, the North Yuan and South Ye that are passed down by word of mouth.
Compared to the stubborn tiger maniac and the erratic little prince, Colonel Wang is obviously a hexagonal player.
"Have you met his sister?"
"We met and had a fight."
"There was a fight?"
Cao Jinse was shocked and stopped under the century-old ginkgo tree.
"Ah."
Jiang Chen nodded.
Cao Jinse looked strange, "Lose or win?"
Jiang Chen didn't say anything. He sighed silently and said with a hint of regret, "It's a pity to lose."
……
Good one, unfortunately lost.
"real or fake?"
Cao Jinse seemed to still be skeptical about this result.
"Is she really a colonel?" Jiang Chen asked for confirmation.
"Ah."
"And you've also served as an instructor for the special forces?"
Boss Jiang is also quite competitive.
"I'm not sure about this."
Also.
It's a military secret.
"It's not shameful to lose to such a fierce man."
He muttered.
"It's not just not shameful, it's a complete honor. Do you know what it means for a woman of this age to reach this level? Did you really lose by a narrow margin?"
"I don't need to brag about losing to someone else, right?"
"If you can really fight her back and forth, every sharp-edged battalion in the army will probably be vying for you. How can you be so good at fighting?"
Jiang Chen smiled indifferently, "You are influenced by what you see and hear. Don't you see who is around me?"
Cao Jinse smiled.
"I underestimated you."
"Those bodybuilders just look big and strong. The real sense of security does not rely on visual effects."
"What do you mean?"
"It means - don't judge a book by its cover."
Jiang Chen continued to move forward.
Cao Jinse curled her lips again and took a step forward to catch up.
Cemeteries are magical places. They can easily make people feel eerie and afraid, but sometimes they can also bring tranquility and peace to people's hearts.
"Don't you want to go see your family?"
As they were about to go down the mountain, Jiang Chen said in vain.
Cao Jinse was stunned.
"I can wait for you."
Jiang Chen added.
Why wait.
Can't we go together?
Cao Jinse looked at him and said, "I'm so sorry."
"It's okay. The air here is so good. I'll just take it as a way to stay healthy."
Jiang Chen did it naturally.
Cao Jinse smiled and said, "No need."
"I can go with you, too."
Jiang Chen continued.
Cao Jinse looked at him and stopped talking.
Jiang Chen didn't laugh, he was frank and calm.
"Going empty-handed? That's a nice thought."
Cao Jinse turned around and continued walking down the mountain.
Jiang Chen followed immediately.
"This is a simple question. Whether it's flowers or grass, they are everywhere here. Just pick some. It's better than buying them in a flower shop."
"You are reluctant to spend a penny, right?"
Cao Jinse said it all.
The two of them walked gradually smaller and smaller.
Wild flowers and grasses sway gently, covering the mountains and fields, and growing endlessly. (End of this chapter)
