Chapter Fifty Preparation
The red lady was smiling and looking at Su Tang, who finally noticed it. Her gaze slowly turned over, the red lady was well-maintained, although she was nearly forty years old, but looked like a twenty-eight or nine-year-old woman, with a unique mature charm.
At the moment their eyes met, Su Tang immediately turned his head away in a fluster, swallowing hard, and from Madame Hong's angle, one could clearly see Su Tang's Adam's apple bob up and down.
For a moment, Su Tang secretly turned his gaze back to Hong Fu, and then quickly shifted it away again, perfectly expressing the psychological activity of wanting to look but not daring to, and not looking but feeling unbearable itchiness.
The red lady laughed even more happily, proving that although her youth had passed, she still possessed an irresistible charm.
"Ma'am, bring that kid over?" The middle-aged man made another suggestion.
The red lady paused for a moment, seemingly recalling something, the smile on her face gradually disappearing. She sighed and said: "Forget it, let's talk about it in a few days, I'm a bit tired, let's go back..."
As the lady in red, she naturally wouldn't care about Master Cheng's embarrassment or not, and stood up to leave with her entourage. Master Cheng was left bewildered, muttering a few words, and the guests at the second table also took their leave.
Back in the carriage, Wen Xiang lightly laughed and said: "There should have been an opportunity at the banquet, why didn't you make a move?"
"I'm not crazy!" Su Tang said: "Gu Qiujue is right next to Hong Furen, and there are also people from the Tie, Bai, Cheng, and Mu families. It's impossible to succeed."
"Haven't you gone mad? Haha, everyone is actually willing to help you assassinate Red Lady... I think we've all gone mad, and not lightly so." Wen Xiang shook her head, then asked: "Do you have to do it yourself? Why not let Xiao Buwu take action?"
"I have principles, whoever advocates it will implement it." Su Tang said lightly, his main goal was to avenge the Dragon Flag, and then let Xiao Buwu take action, this is using Xiao Buwu's life to whitewash his own character.
Xiang heard this sentence, was stunned for a moment, then looked at Su Tang deeply: "Are you really sure?"
"I didn't have much confidence before I came." Su Tang said: "Now...I've gained some confidence, I can see that Madame Hong's personality is very casual, she's not the kind of person who is cautious and has a deep mind, I have the opportunity to get close to her."
"With a face like yours, you'll certainly have the chance to get close to her. What I'm worried about is that you won't have the chance to leave." Xiangxiang smiled and said.
"This is none of your business, you'd better think about how to deal with Gu Qiujue yourself." Su Tang said.
As soon as Gu Qiujue was mentioned, Wen Xiang's expression turned gloomy again. She didn't want to confront such a formidable enemy head-on, but unfortunately, apart from her, no one else could match up to Gu Qiujue.
Time flies quickly, and the next day, news came from the Cheng family that Lady Hong would go to Jinzhong Temple for a tour tomorrow. The Cheng family also sent an invitation letter to Su Tang, asking him to visit the Cheng family as a guest, saying that there was something important to discuss.
Cheng Jia wants to change the layout of Changshan County, but with Hong Furen in charge, he won't easily make a move on the other three families, or they will unite and resist Cheng Jia together.
The situation of Miaodao Pavilion is very special, Mr. Wen and Longqi were killed one after another, Su Tang is just a young man who has not yet washed away the smell of his mother's milk, and he has only been in charge of Miaodao Pavilion for a few days, this is a great opportunity for Cheng family, they don't want to wait any longer.
Similarly, Su Tang didn't want to wait any longer. At dawn, Su Tang, Wen Xiang, Xiao Buque, Tong Fei and Mo Xiaobai all gathered in the back building of Miao Dao Pavilion, making their final preparations.
"This is the gold ticket of Hengyuan Money House." Su Tang put a stack of gold tickets on the table: "Mo Xiaobai found some new faces to open the gold tickets, and the denominations are all one hundred or two hundred. They won't suspect us, nor can they investigate... Calculating it down... each of us can get eight thousand."
Wen Xiang and others were calm as usual, but Mo Xiaobai was excited, he didn't expect that he also had a share, and it was so much.
"What a pity, the property of Miao Dao Ge can't be sold, otherwise it will definitely alert the Cheng family. We've all left, and I don't know who will benefit in the end." Su Tang said: "Xiao Bai, divide the gold tickets."
"Yes, sir." Mo Xiaobai took over the golden tickets and began to sort them out one by one.
"This is our last gathering, from now on we'll be going our separate ways... Hehe..." Xiao Bu regretfully sighed: "Xiao Bai, you've never had so many gold tickets before, have you thought about where to go?"
"It's best not to ask." Su Tang said: "We'll split up and go our separate ways. That way, if something happens to one of us, it won't implicate the others."
"Also." Xiao Bu regretted nodded.
The gold ticket difference is almost done, and suddenly Wen Xiang said: "Is it divided?"
"Hmm." Mo Xiaobai felt a bit tense, was Mo Fei dissatisfied? Did he think this small fry had gotten too much?
"I've finally got it." Xiang smiled and picked up the gold ticket, stood up and swayed as she walked out: "Everyone, goodbye, I have to leave this place of trouble immediately."
Xiao Bu Hui and Tong Fei were both stunned, while Mo Xiao Bai was even more shocked, because Wen Xiang's task was the most crucial part of the plan. If they couldn't hold down Gu Qi Yue, Su Tang would never succeed.
Su Tang quietly smelled the fragrance of her back, without saying a word.
Walking to the door, she smelled the fragrance and turned around again, asking in a curious tone: "Why didn't you stop me?"
"Your legs are on your body, you want to leave, who can stop you?" Su Tang said with a bitter smile.
"I originally wanted to run away, but seeing you like this... I couldn't bear it. Xiangxiang chuckled and walked back slowly, sitting down on the chair, her smile gradually fading as she stared at Su Tang, saying word by word: 'Remember, you owe me twice.'"
"I won't forget this," Su Tang said. Previously, it was Wen Xiang who had saved his life, and now he really owed Wen Xiang a favor.
"I told you... Xiang Gong is not a deserter." Xiao Bu regretted with a smile.
"You say that so easily." Wen Xiang's face turned up: "This heartless person has assigned the most dangerous task to me, if it were you, would you be willing?"
"If it's really that dangerous, you would have refused from the start." Xiao Buwu said.
"What does it mean?" Wen Xiang furrowed her brow and asked.
"He said you're not afraid of Gu Qiuzi." Tong Fei suddenly interjected, "He told me before that if one of the four of us becomes a Grandmaster, it will definitely be you."
"You understand what..." Xiang murmured, a hint of sadness flashing in her eyes.
Su Tang shifted the topic: "Xiao Bai, are you ready? Once we enter Jin Zhong Temple, take action immediately!"
"Sir, don't worry, I've prepared over a dozen barrels of oil. Within half an hour, the Miao Dao Pavilion will be reduced to ashes, nothing will be left behind." Mo Xiaobai said: "And I've collected all the documents and registers that were hidden elsewhere, absolutely won't let the Cheng family take advantage of it."
"Alright..." Su Tang let out a sigh: "I owe it to Big Brother Long..."
The atmosphere in the hall became melancholic, and the fragrance was slightly insufficient. Xiao Bu and Tong Fei had fought for Myriad Dao Pavilion for over a decade, knowing that it would soon turn to dust and be forgotten, so their mood was naturally not good.
