Siheyuan: If I marry Qin Huairu, I will become stronger by showing off.

Chapter 408 Hello, Princess, I am showing off~~
Since New Year's Day,

There was a voice that kept lingering in Yi Zhonghai's mind, or it could be said that it was a sentence. This sentence echoed in his mind day and night, all the time.

He couldn't eat or sleep, and he almost went crazy.

"This place...can't hold Grandpa!"

This sentence was said by He Daqing on that day. Yi Zhonghai was dismissive at that time, thinking that this guy was just bragging and talking nonsense, and he could not be trusted at all.

This is a prison, guarded by a large group of police officers and with tight security.

How is it possible that I can't lock you up? ?
Who do you think you are, He Daqing? You are just a cook, look at how capable you are! !
Do you really think you are a hero who can fly and do everything?

I bother!

But later, a scene he saw accidentally changed his mind. After he went back, the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, and the more suspicious he became.

During dinner that night, Yi Zhonghai found Jia Dongxu.

"Dongxu, let me tell you something."

"explain."

"Do you still remember what He Daqing said that day?"

"do not remember."

Yi Zhonghai paused, then lowered his voice and said, "He said the other day... he can't be kept here."

Jia Dongxu paused while drinking the vegetable porridge.

Yi Zhonghai whispered: "Dongxu, do you think what he said is true or false?"

Jia Dongxu remained silent, his eyes flickering.

After a long while, he asked back: "Do you believe it?"

Yi Zhonghai shook his head and did not comment.

Changing the subject, he whispered, "I saw He Daqing talking to that man last night, and I noticed the expression on his face..."

"What's that expression?" Jia Dongxu asked in a deep voice.

Yi Zhonghai thought about it and said, "Flattering, fawning, respectful, just like a pug!"

"Oh, right? That guy kicked him, but He Daqing smiled and came over again. What do you think this guy is but a pug?"

Jia Dongxu was stunned and turned to look at Yi Zhonghai in a daze.

"Are you telling the truth?"

"That's not the case!"

Yi Zhonghai nodded and said in a deep voice: "If it weren't for this, I wouldn't believe what He Daqing said that day. It's because of this that I feel a little uneasy."

"Dongxu, your mother is your mother, and you are you."

"I don't want to get you involved in the feud between your mother and I. Although because of Ding Xiu's matter... you reported me..."

"But I don't hate you, Dongxu. I still treat you as my apprentice."

A hint of sarcasm flashed across Jia Dongxu's eyes, and he said calmly, "If you have something to say, just say it. Whether you hate me or not has nothing to do with me."

"If you have something to say, just say it. If not, I'll leave."

Yi Zhonghai was furious and secretly cursed the little wolf cub, wishing him a horrible death.

He swallowed his saliva and lowered his voice, "You have no grudge against He Daqing. Find a chance to test his words and find out whether what he said is true or false...

Also, what is his relationship with that person?"

Jia Dongxu picked up the bowl, stood up from the ground, turned around and left without saying a word.

……

Just as Yi Zhonghai and Jia Dongxu were discussing in secret,
At the same time and space, thousands of miles away, Wu Youde was looking at the unfamiliar land in front of him, his heart was slightly beating. This is a fertile land...

His current situation can be summed up in one sentence:
I'm in Kowloon, just got off the ship.

I made an appointment with Margaret in the middle of last year to meet in Kowloon at the end of the year, but later Margaret wrote to say that she and her sister would postpone their trip to Kowloon until the beginning of the new year.

Wu Youde came to Kowloon this time with Le Wenyuan.

When this guy heard that Wu Youde was going to see Margaret, he immediately became restless and shouted that he wanted to go too.

Wu Youde said that he was going to meet his future girlfriend. What were you going there for? To be a third wheel?

Le Wenyuan curled his lips and said he was going to see his old classmates.

This reason is reasonable.

then,

The two of them secretly went to Guangzhou through the Le family's channels, boarded a ship after dark, and arrived in Kowloon.

……

"It's pitch black, there's nothing to see, Lao Wu, hurry up and leave, someone is here to pick us up!"

"Well, let's go."

The Le family also has properties in Kowloon. When the eldest son of the Le family came, he was picked up by a special car and accompanied by a special person.

At ten o'clock that night, we finally settled down.

No words for a night, sleep peacefully.

the next morning,

Wu Youde and Le Wenyuan enjoyed a sumptuous Cantonese morning tea, and then went back to their rooms to get ready.

Wu Youde was fine, he just changed into a casual suit that he bought from the mall.

It is royal blue with dark patterns, simple and elegant in style, yet very different from the currently popular suit styles, and looks very handsome.

In addition to clothes,

He did a simple hair style again and put some hair wax on it.

Of course, this hair wax is also produced in the mall.

After looking in the mirror, he went out.

After waiting for a long time, Le Wenyuan finally came downstairs.

Wu Youde looked up and exclaimed, Wow, he had actually changed into a white suit, and was wearing a pair of white leather shoes, and his tie and socks were bright red.

Very showy!

Her hair was also shiny, as if it had been licked by a dog, and it had a classic side-parting that looked greasy.

Before he got close, Wu Youde smelled a fragrance.

"Are you wearing perfume?"

"uh-huh."

Le Wenyuan smiled proudly, "I even took a bath."

"..."

Wu Youde was speechless and resisted the urge to make him face reality.

"Okay, let's go. Don't keep the princess waiting for too long. It would make us seem ungentlemanly." Le Wenyuan said carelessly.

The two of them went out.

The Le family is indeed a medical family with a century-old history. Even in Kowloon, they still have villas and cars.

The strength is evident.

The two men rode in a black Ford sedan and soon arrived at the gate of the Governor's House. They were stopped from a distance by a row of armed soldiers, all of whom were American ex-pats.

The car stopped, Le Wenyuan stuck his head out and immediately shouted a string of English words.

Jiligurulu. Gululujili.

Gurgle gurgle, chirp chirp.

……

It turns out that

Her Royal Highness the Princess of the Great Eagle Empire is not so easy to meet.

Even if Le Wenyuan said that he was a classmate of Her Royal Highness the Princess, and that he had already made an appointment with Her Royal Highness the Princess...

It was already one o'clock in the afternoon when Wu Youde and his companions were allowed to enter the Governor's House.

Another two hours passed before they saw Margaret.

……

January 10, 1954, 3:00 p.m.

It was a sunny and breezy afternoon. Wu Youde and Le Wenyuan were brought to the back garden of the Governor's Palace by two girls from the United States who were wearing English court maid dresses.

The grass is lush and the ground is covered with green shade.

On a gentle slope stood a beautiful girl. She was tall and elegant, wearing a white long dress, like an angel fallen into the mortal world.

Her long golden hair fluttered gently, shining softly under the sunlight, and her eyes were as deep and bright as lake water. She tilted her face slightly and looked into the distance. Her calm and focused expression attracted people involuntarily.

When Wu Youde and Le Wenyuan arrived, she seemed to sense something and turned around immediately...

At that moment, time seemed to freeze.

Margaret's eyes met Wu Youde's, and then they froze, unable to move away.

The look seemed to have traveled through a year and reached each other's hearts. At that moment, all the waiting and anticipation turned into the meeting before their eyes.

Her heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably...

Although it was the first time we met, I felt as if we had known each other for a long time.

That's right, they did know each other for a long time in the letters.

She felt as if her soul was firmly attracted by a powerful gravitational force...

Wu Youde's figure stood tall in the sun, his face firm yet gentle. His eyes were deep and bright, as if they could see through people's hearts. Margaret was deeply attracted by his temperament and charm. She felt her heartbeat echoing in her ears, as if the whole world only had the two of them.

"Hello, I'm Margaret." The princess' voice trembled a little, but she tried to stay calm and extended her hand to Wu Youde.

Wu Youde smiled and held Princess Margaret's hand.

He felt the warmth of her palm, as well as the faint nervousness and anticipation.

At this moment, he also felt the princess' special feelings for him.

"Hello, I'm Alan, you can call me Wu Youde." Wu Youde's voice was gentle and powerful, and his eyes were full of sincerity and friendliness.

Margaret's smile is so bright and beautiful that she is more beautiful than flowers.

"Alan, I finally meet you." Princess Margaret's voice was full of excitement and joy.

"Margaret, I have been looking forward to this day."

Wu Youde gently pinched the hand in his hand, smiled, and spoke softly, then he let go of his hand and stretched out his arms.

Margaret's deep blue eyes stared at Wu Youde quietly.

Wu Youde still maintained this posture, with a smile on his face, looking at her tenderly.

I don’t know how long it took, it seemed like a moment, but also like many years.

Margaret moved. She took a step forward and gently threw herself into Wu Youde's arms, while also stretching out her arms to hug his waist.

After a few seconds, the two separated.

Even so, Le Wenyuan, who was standing behind him, had red eyes, sour thoughts welled up in his stomach, and his back teeth were almost broken.

The envy, jealousy and hatred in my heart...

Don’t even mention it!

"Hi! Dear Princess, have you forgotten your dear friend?"

Le Wenyuan couldn't help it and had to remind him.

His interruption made Margaret notice that there was another person. Seeing the depression on Le Wenyuan's face, Margaret laughed out loud.

"I'm sorry, Pete!"

"Please forgive my oversight, I didn't mean it."

"Peter, long time no see, you are still so gentlemanly, are you doing well back home?"

Le Wenyuan chuckled happily. He nodded and said with a smile, "It's okay. It's just that after parting with the princess, I've been missing the days in London."

"Princess, you are still as beautiful as ever. No! You are even more beautiful than before!"

"Princess, I am so happy to see you. Today is such a wonderful day, worth remembering!!"

……

In the following period of time,

Wu Youde, Le Wenyuan and Princess Margaret, three of them walking in the garden.

Margaret first chatted with Le Wenyuan about the past, talked about each other's recent situation, and then invited Wu Youde to take a walk by the lake.

Wu Youde readily agreed, and Le Wenyuan was sad.

The lawn of the Governor's House is very large, and there is a natural lake on the east side. The scenery looks very nice.

Wu Youde and Margaret seemed to have endless things to talk about. They talked about every detail in the letters and shared each other's lives and emotions.

It was like returning to those nights when we talked to each other through letters, and the emotions were even deeper and more real.

They both forgot the passage of time and immersed themselves in this beautiful emotion. Le Wenyuan, who was far away, accompanied them silently and witnessed this beautiful love.

As the sun sets,

As the last rays of sunlight fell on the garden, Princess Margaret and Wu Youde said goodbye reluctantly.

……

Three days in a row.

After breakfast every morning, Wu Youde and Le Wenyuan went out to the Governor's House.

Since the first day she met Margaret, her captain of the guard gave Wu Youde and his men a special seven-day pass.

Therefore, the subsequent times they went on much more smoothly.

After being inspected at the outermost part of the Governor's House, they were released directly without having to wait for further notification.

During these three days, both of them went out early and came back late, staying with Margaret every day.

You can have coffee and chat, go fishing by the lake, ride horses on the grass, take a walk to the top of Victoria Peak, and finally sit in the pavilion on the top of the mountain to enjoy the sunset and the afterglow spreading over the entire Victoria Harbour.

Life is free and comfortable. It would be even better if there wasn’t a light bulb!

In fact, Wu Youde said that Le Wenyuan didn't have to come, but Le Wenyuan refused to accept it. He argued that he was going to meet old classmates and reminisce about the past. How does it bother you? What's it to you to interfere?
The princess hasn't said anything yet, why are you complaining? !
It's true that the emperor is not in a hurry, but the eunuch is!
These words left Wu Youde speechless.

But on the fourth day,
As the sun was setting and they were about to say goodbye, Margaret said, "Peter, you don't have to come tomorrow. I want to go sketching with Alan."

Le Wenyuan: "..."

Her Royal Highness the Princess has said so, so as a gentleman you should say gracefully: "No problem, OK, my dear and beautiful Princess!"

Le Wenyuan suppressed the sadness in his heart, and tried hard to force a smile, saying so.

Wu Youde was watching from the side and found it very funny.

……

So on the fifth day,
After having breakfast at the Le family, Wu Youde drove the Le family's car alone, amid the envious and jealous gaze of the Le family's eldest son, and sped away to meet the Le family's eldest son's goddess in secret.

When talking about Kowloon, we have to mention Taiping Peak.

Victoria Peak is the highest peak on the island. Standing on the top of the mountain, you can overlook the entire Victoria Harbour, and the scenery of Victoria Peak is really nice.

Because the climate here is warm and humid, there are still large areas of green trees and shade on the mountain even in winter. The air is very fresh, and the mountain breeze mixed with a hint of sea breeze makes you feel relaxed and happy, and your body and mind are relaxed.

Because of this,

Later, a large number of celebrities and wealthy people gathered on Taiping Mountain. The closer you get to the top of the mountain, the more noble your status, the more prominent your position, and the greater your wealth.

For example, in later generations,
The people on the top of Victoria Peak include Li Chaoren, Ho the Gambling King, Li Zhaoji, Liu Luanxiong, Huo Dongying, Ma Yun and so on.

Thinking about the grand occasion here in the future, and looking at the quiet and peaceful Taiping Mountain at this moment, which is like a paradise...

Wu Youde only felt that time was the most magical and powerful thing in the world!
The world changes and everything changes. To put it bluntly, it is all caused by time.

He collected all the thoughts in his mind and cast his gaze towards Margaret, who was leaning against a bauhinia tree not far away, smiling sweetly with her beautiful features. The pencil in his hand moved at the right time.

"Swish..."

The pencil dances lightly on the paper, and every stroke is full of power and vitality.

Margaret's long golden hair was gently blown by the breeze, her smile was as warm as the sunshine, and her bright eyes sparkled with liveliness and cunning.

Wu Youde carefully depicted every detail of her, from her outline to her clothes, and even the bauhinia flowers gently swaying in her hands. He perfectly presented her beauty and temperament on the drawing paper, as if to freeze this moment in eternity.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

The sound of the pencil on the paper became more and more rhythmic, like a beautiful symphony.

Listen to this voice,
Margaret, who had been staring at Wu Youde, felt her heart jumping along with the sound, extremely happy, with a faint sense of happiness lingering in her heart.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

As the pencil was outlined, Margaret's image gradually emerged on the paper. Only when the last stroke was made did Wu Youde look up.

He grinned at Margaret and said loudly, "Are you tired? Do you want to sit down and rest for a while?"

Margaret shook her head, blinked her deep blue eyes, and said crisply: "I'm not tired, haven't you finished painting yet? I can't help but want to see it, hehe~"

"I've finished this one, but I want to draw another one for you."

"Draw another one?"

"Correct."

Wu Youde nodded and said with a smile: "Using our oriental painting technique, that is, using a brush dipped in ink to paint, you should have seen that kind of painting, right?"

"Oh~"

Margaret suddenly realized. She laughed and said, "Of course, I have seen many of them. There are many in Buckingham Palace. But..."

"I can't understand it. I don't understand what it means."

Speaking of last,
She blinked her big eyes and asked curiously, "Can you also draw that kind of picture, Alan?"

Seeing Wu Youde nod, she exclaimed.

"Wow~~"

"Alan, you are really amazing, how come you know so many things?"

Wu Youde smiled mysteriously and said cheerfully, "I still know a lot more. When I finish painting, I will show you a magic trick. I promised you in the letter that after you see it, you will shout 'God' ten times in a row!"

After saying that, he moved the drawing board aside, pulled the table next to it over, spread rice paper on it, and took out the brush, ink, and inkstone from his bag and arranged them one by one.

At this time,

Margaret then understood why Wu Youde had someone bring in a table when she came just now.

It turns out that I had thought about it a long time ago.

Grind the ink and moisten the brush.

Calm down and focus.

Wu Youde looked calm, with a smile on his face, and stared at Margaret for three full minutes, as if he wanted to imprint every detail of Margaret deeply in his mind.

then,

He lowered his head, gently picked up the brush, dipped it in ink, and gently rotated the tip of the brush in the inkstone...
