While Zhou Hongyi was training Xiao Bei, A Gui stood guard outside the store, watching everyone who passed by warily, putting on an air of "keep away" and not letting strangers easily approach the store.
After Zhou Hongyi finished explaining his plan, Xiao Bei was filled with admiration for him.
"Brother Zhou, where did you learn all this? You're amazing!"
“Hehe~” Zhou Hongyi waved his hand and said, “These are all trivial matters, just crooked tricks. Just don’t forget our real purpose. Come on, from today onwards, put on the mask and communicate more with the customers who come into the store. Whether they are wealthy ladies or foreigners, you must be neither humble nor arrogant during the communication process, and your tone must be cold. You must never be enthusiastic. Before you officially participate in the beauty pageant, I want to promote you first.”
Xiao Bei nodded very seriously, looked at the mask Zhou Hongyi had given her, and silently put it on her face.
This is a mask used by Westerners for masquerade balls. It is lightweight and gleams with a metallic sheen under the light. Feather decorations at the corners of the eyes curl upwards, giving it a rather exquisite appearance. However, the overall impression is one of coldness and mystery, making one want to explore it further.
After explaining the precautions to Xiao Bei, Zhou Hongyi handed over the "onepiece" shop to her completely. Only then did he take A Gui and wander around the alley again to the blind man's house.
But when he arrived at the blind man's house, he found the door tightly closed and no one was home.
"Sir, are you looking for the blind man? He's not here. His mother, Qingxia, suddenly had stomach pains last night; she's probably going into labor," a passing woman explained to Zhou Hongyi with great enthusiasm.
"Auntie, do you know which hospital they went to?"
"I don't know which hospital it is, but I heard that the blind man's mother is going to a hospital run by foreigners for a C-section. They'll cut open her belly with a knife and take the baby out. Oh my! Just hearing about it is terrifying!"
Zhou Hongyi thought for a moment. The nearest foreign hospital should not be far away. Just as he was about to go and take a look, he heard a familiar voice coming from afar.
"Excuse me, excuse me! A pregnant woman is going home, everyone please make way!"
The group looked over at the sound and saw the blind man running ahead, clearing the way for others, followed by a rickshaw. His mother, Qingxia, was sitting in the rickshaw, her head wrapped in a cotton cloth, her face pale, and she was holding a baby in her arms.
"Oh my, the blind man is back! Did he have a boy or a girl?" An old woman in the alley rushed up to him and asked with a gossipy look on her face.
The blind woman looked at the baby in the swaddling clothes with loving eyes and said, "It's a girl. She has such a cute little face, almost exactly like our blind man when he was little."
"Oh my, it's a little girl, and she's so pretty. Come here, let me give her a hug."
The woman took the child from the blind woman's arms, and the blind man, very perceptive, helped his mother down from the rickshaw, where he immediately spotted Zhou Hongyi.
"Brother Zhou, you're here! Hehe~ She was born last night, mother and daughter are both safe and sound, weighing 6.7 pounds, not bad."
Zhou Hongyi went up to help her and said, "Sister Qingxia, why didn't you stay in the hospital a little longer? Why did you rush back? You should have been observed after giving birth."
Although the blind woman was somewhat weak, her face was still beaming with happiness: "It's alright, it's alright. Every extra day we stay in that foreign hospital costs money. Even though we have the silver dollars that Young Master Zhou gave us, we can't waste them."
"Oh, how can you call this a waste? Health is important. By the way, blind man, take some money and buy some imported baby formula later. The child's nutrition cannot be neglected."
The blind woman chuckled and said, "Why buy formula? My breast milk is more than enough."
At this point, the baby held in the old lady's arms let out a loud "waaaaaa".
"Quickly, Yang Ma, give me the child. He's hungry after the journey."
The blind woman quickly took the child and began breastfeeding him as she walked into the house. Zhou Hongyi was speechless and turned his head away.
"Brother Zhou, and this brother, please have a seat. It seems the baby has wet herself again. I'll change her diaper and then get you some water."
The blind man helped his mother sit inside the house and then busied himself changing the baby's diaper.
Seeing that he was busy, Zhou Hongyi quickly said, "Blind Man, don't worry about us. Take good care of your mother and sister. I just wanted to tell you that once your mother is settled, you can go to the shop we talked about last time and help me run it. Right now, there's only one girl in the shop, and I'm worried it might not be safe. By the way, Sister Qingxia, if you've recovered enough, you can come with me. My shop is better and more spacious. If you'd like, you can stay there and teach my sister some basic things about becoming a star."
Brigitte Lin, who was breastfeeding her child, looked up and asked in surprise, "Mr. Zhou, does your sister want to be a star?"
"Yes, the young lady wants to participate in the Miss Rose pageant next month. I couldn't refuse her, so I agreed to help her. Sister Qingxia is an expert in this area and shared some experience with me. I am very grateful."
"Hehehe, Young Master Zhou, don't worry. I, Qingxia, may not have any other skills, but I do have some experience in seducing men... ah, pui pui pui, pleasing men... that doesn't seem right either. Anyway, Young Master Zhou, please leave your address, and the three of us will move in today."
The blind woman didn't stand on ceremony. When she heard that she could move there and that the conditions there were good, she immediately decided to move.
Zhou Hongyi gave another instruction before leading Ah Gui out of the alley and straight to the police station.
“Ah Gui, this place should be familiar to you. This is the Second Precinct. But remember, don’t give us any openings. We will avenge you soon, but before that, you must learn to be patient when necessary.”
Ah Gui looked at the gate of the Second Precinct, took a deep breath, and nodded vigorously, saying, "Yes, brother, don't worry. As long as I can get revenge, I don't care how much I have to endure. This is also a kind of mental cultivation."
Zhou Hongyi patted his shoulder, said "Let's go," and then stepped into the police station.
Ah Gui followed, his eyes fixed on the ground at a 45-degree angle to his front, his muscles tense as if he were resisting a volcano that might erupt within him at any moment.
"Young Master Zhou is here~~"
"You should call me Director Zhou. You've arrived, let me get you a kettle of hot water!"
"Oh dear, Director Zhou, I heard you were shot at the Paramount. You should rest at home for a few more days."
When Zhou Hongyi walked into the police station, all the police officers put down what they were doing and came over to greet him.
Zhou Hongyi smiled and waved to them one by one.
At this moment, Wei Zhe, the captain of the third team, also came over from the side. Zhou Hongyi could clearly feel that A Gui's aura was somewhat disordered, but he still tried his best to control himself and did not even look at his enemy.
"Young Master Zhou, the uniform you requested last time has been prepared. This brother should be a new member of your special operations team, right? Have him leave his name and basic information so he can go collect his equipment."
Zhou Hongyi smiled broadly, patted Wei Zhe on the shoulder and said, "Captain Wei, I thank you on behalf of my brother. If I have the chance, I will definitely have him treat you to a good drink and personally toast you."
Wei Zhe was unaware that death had already set its sights on him, and said with a smile, "Young Master Zhou, you're too kind. This is what I should do."
Zhou Hongyi turned around and introduced, "This is my brother, Agui. He's also a member of my team starting today. Please take good care of him. Agui, this is Wei Zhe, the captain of our third team. Say hello to him. We'll all be colleagues from now on."
