Chapter 352 Arrival in Shanghai

Seven days later.

Shanghai, the French Concession.

Outside the vegetable market at the Tongfuli Triangle, in a coffee shop not far away, Ye Shaohong was sitting in a secluded corner, leisurely reading a newspaper.

A bell rang, and the coffee shop door opened wide.

Li Yunlong, dressed in a black short-sleeved outfit and wearing a melon-shaped hat, strode in.

Upon seeing Ye Shaohong, he didn't rush forward immediately, but instead glanced around out of the corner of his eye.

After confirming that there were no people with special needs in the coffee shop, he stepped forward and approached Ye Shaohong. He bowed slightly and greeted him.

"Third Young Master!"

"Ok?"

Hearing the call, Ye Shaohong put down the newspaper he was holding, looked up at Li Yunlong, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

"It's Yunlong."

"sit down."

Ye Shaohong put down the newspaper in his hand, picked up the coffee on the table, and took a small sip.

Seeing Li Yunlong sit down, he then said something seemingly casually.

"With the war in the north, this business is not easy to do."

“My family is eager to expand their business in Shanghai. They said they’ve arranged for someone to send me some samples.”

"I'm afraid you'll have to handle this matter, Yunlong." Li Yunlong blinked, instantly understanding Ye Shaohong's thoughts, and a smile immediately appeared on his face.

"It should."

"Don't worry, Third Young Master, I'll keep an eye on things."

"After I receive the samples, should I deliver them to your home, or should we schedule a time to deliver them to you next time?"

Ye Shaohong put down his coffee cup, casually crossed his legs, flicked his finger, and struck a pose like a playboy.

Why bother with all that effort?

"After you pick up the goods, just rent a warehouse to store them. Next time we meet, you can take me there to see them."

"Yes, Third Young Master!"

Li Yunlong nodded, accepted the task that Ye Shaohong had just assigned him, and then got up, turned around and walked out of the coffee shop.

After Li Yunlong's figure disappeared, a pretty figure emerged from the restroom in the coffee shop.

It was Yu Manli.

After she came out, she sat down directly next to Ye Shaohong.

She took Ye Shaohong's arm with one hand, and nestled her cheek against Ye Shaohong's shoulder like a little bird seeking shelter.

"I've seen them all."

“When he came over, he took several measures to prevent being tracked, and no one followed him the whole way.”

Ye Shaohong nodded, turned to the side, raised his hand and lifted Yu Manli's cheek. After examining her briefly, he suddenly leaned down and gently tapped Yu Manli's forehead.

For an instant.

Yu Manli's pretty face turned red.

The small hand that was gripping Ye Shaohong's arm slid down and gently pinched Ye Shaohong's waist.

"Stop fooling around." "There are outsiders watching."

"Let them look. It's none of their business how I'm being intimate with my woman."

Ye Shaohong grinned, quite fond of Yu Manli's sudden charming appearance. As his voice fell, his hand, which had been restless, landed on Yu Manli's waist.

With a slight pull, Yu Manli nestled into Ye Shaohong's arms.

"Hey."

"What's wrong with you? You weren't like this before."

"Why have you become so clumsy and improper since coming to Shanghai?"

Yu Manli was delighted to be pulled into Ye Shaohong's arms, but her girlish shyness still made her let out a soft moan.

"That's normal." "Don't forget, the identity I'm playing now is that of a spoiled young master from a wealthy family in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. If I'm not a bit dissolute, who would believe me?"

Ye Shaohong lowered his head, brought his face close to Yu Manli's, opened his mouth, breathed hot air, and whispered the truth into Yu Manli's ear.

"you……."

"I think you're just taking advantage of this to bully me!"

Yu Manli knew that Ye Shaohong was right, but she was still somewhat ashamed and angry to be treated so lightly by Ye Shaohong in front of outsiders.

You'll get used to it eventually.

After a soft chuckle, Ye Shaohong released his arm around Yu Manli's waist, picked up the coffee on the table again, and took a small sip.

Seeing that a blond foreigner not far away had withdrawn his probing gaze from him, Ye Shaohong lowered his voice and recounted his meeting with Li Yunlong. "This time I was ordered to infiltrate Shanghai, and headquarters gave me a lot of support."

"In addition to the $30,000 in operating funds, the director personally approved and arranged for two radios to be delivered to me, enough firearms and ammunition to arm a platoon."

"I've already had Yunlong pick up these goods."

"Once he finds the storage location, we'll take some time to go and check on it."

Yu Manli nodded. Actually, Ye Shaohong didn't have to tell her these things at all. Now that he had, she secretly kept them in mind.

She knew that Ye Shaohong must have had a plan for telling her all this.

She might have to cooperate with Ye Shaohong in his actions in the future.

Ye Shaohong was very satisfied with Yu Manli's attitude. He knew that Yu Manli was very smart. If she wasn't smart, she wouldn't have been specially chosen by Poison Scorpion to be Mingtai's partner in life and death.

The situation has become so urgent that Ye Shaohong has no choice but to do this, as he doesn't want Yu Manli to be in danger.

After a brief pause to process this information, Ye Shaohong asked Yu Manli about something else.

"Did you see any shops being rented out nearby when you went out?"

"If there is one, we might consider renting one."

Ye Shaohong's sudden decision surprised Yu Manli. Ever since arriving in Shanghai, Yu Manli had noticed something.

After disembarking, Ye Shaohong found a place to stay and went straight to the Tongfuli Triangle.

For the next three days, Ye Shaohong did almost nothing.

He sits in this coffee shop all day, as if he's waiting for someone.

But during these three days, Yu Manli stayed by Ye Shaohong's side the whole time, and she didn't see anyone interacting with Ye Shaohong.

Now Ye Shaohong wants to buy houses and shops in the Tongfuli Triangle area.

This is even stranger.

However, Yu Manli was very smart and sensible. Although she noticed something was amiss, she never asked any questions.

After hearing Ye Shaohong's words, Yu Manli tilted her head and thought about it for a moment before agreeing.

"Okay!"

"Do you still remember the rouge shop you opened for me back in Jinling?"

"Due to special circumstances at the time, the shop didn't stay open for long, which I regret. Now it's time to make up for it."

As the two were talking, it was getting closer to evening. As the market in the Triangle area closed, a young man wearing a light gray long shirt and carrying two fish walked out of the market.

The young man always had a smile on his face. When he passed by the coffee shop, he unconsciously slowed down a bit. Then his gaze swept over Ye Shaohong and Yu Manli.

Seeing the two of them being so intimate and familiar, the young man blinked and then walked away...
