Subversion of the plot [Comprehensive]

Zhou Tingchen just stared at him a few times, then turned and left.

Tao Shuobai has not yet recovered, Suxi is anxious: "Hey, why did he leave like this? Miss, what does he mean by that?"

Tao Shuobai was thoughtful: "He didn't come here just to avoid suspicion. That's enough, don't forget our business."

Su Xi felt that both of them were weird, so she had no choice but to keep silent.

Tao Shuobai went to the pawnshop and pawned the selected sets of jewelry.Tong Yuwan had a lot of jewelry, except for the ancestral ones that were not easy to move, and a few commemorative ones, he took out the rest.The jewelry is well preserved, [-]% to [-]% new, and it is dead, so the number is still considerable.

After leaving the pawn shop, Tao Shuobai went to Jingbang Street again, looking for a house to open a shop.

For the time being, he intends to open Wanju first, which is not only Tong Yuwan's dream, but also a starting point, even if it falls into the eyes of outsiders, it will not feel awkward.Wanju is a store that sells household goods, Jingbang Street is bustling and lively, but the smell of wine is also afraid of deep alleys. Advertising and creativity are very important. In the original drama, Tong Yuwan didn't understand this at the beginning. Only then will I understand.

The playboy Du Yuntang pretended to be very successful. Although his character was really hateful, he was indeed capable in business.

Tao Shuobai had inspected the houses on Pidgin Street before, and he already had a plan in mind, this time he was here to negotiate the rent.I went to three houses, and finally negotiated with the owner of one of them.Tao Shuobai signed a three-year lease, and the contract is very standardized. Beware of the landlord maliciously raising the price and breaking the contract without authorization.

After the house was negotiated, the supplier was contacted, the deposit was paid, and the delivery date was agreed.

Tong Yuwan used the word "Wanju" for the name of the shop. In terms of decoration, he had also thought up a few design plans in advance, just waiting for someone to start the work.In order to catch up with the trend, and also to brighten the daylight, many places have to be replaced with large glass, and household items are sold, including flowers and plants.The entrance is a small patio, covered with glass on the top, elegant easels are placed against the courtyard walls on both sides, decorated with flowers and plants, and then placed with white rattan tables and chairs, the taste comes out.

After two or three days of busy work, the decoration of Wanju went smoothly.

Both Tong's father and Tong's mother knew about this, and Tong's father supported him, but he also asked him not to forget the business of the factory.After all, in Tong's father's eyes, Wanju was just a small fight, because he knew that Tong Yuwan had always had this dream, and he was afraid that if she was not allowed to do it, it would dampen her enthusiasm, so Tong's father didn't stop her.

Tong's mother felt distressed, and cooked a supper for him at night.

Before leaving, Tong's mother thought of something: "By the way, your classmate Li Xuemei came to see you today. You are not at home. I will ask her to come back another day."

Li Xuemei?

Thinking about the original drama, Tao Shuobai understood.Tong Yuwan and Li Xuemei are classmates and good friends, and they both married people who didn't want to marry, and they got married on the same day.Now that the marriage between the Tong family and the Du family has been postponed, it is a certainty that Li Xuemei will marry into the General's Mansion.

After washing, Tao Shuobai lay on the bed, and Suxi closed the door and went out.

Tao Shuobai closed his eyes and feigned sleep, but his consciousness was released. Seeing Zhou Tingchen sneaking into Tong's house, he was already outside the bedroom door.He remained calm until Zhou Tingchen came in and stood in front of the bed, then opened his eyes.

Zhou Tingchen did not panic, but asked coldly: "Who are you? You are definitely not Tong Yuwan!"

Tao Shuobai sat up, but asked back: "Who are you?"

Zhou Tingchen raised his eyebrows slightly, and suddenly he leaned forward, a sharp dagger slipped out of his hand, the cold light flashed, and hit Tao Shuobai's throat.

Tao Shuobai slapped his palm on the bed, and as light as a swallow, he jumped up and dived over Zhou Tingchen's head. When he landed, his palm made a knife and slashed at the back of Zhou Tingchen's neck.

Zhou Tingchen was frightened, and when he heard the wind behind his head, he instinctively wanted to hide, but Tao Shuobai's speed was too fast, almost as soon as he saw the person in front of him jump up, there was an attack from behind.Tao Shuobai didn't knock him unconscious, but when he got close to the back of his neck, his movements changed, and his hand was like an eagle's claw, grabbing Zhou Tingchen's right shoulder.Zhou Tingchen only felt pain in his muscles and bones, and the dagger in his hand had already come off.

Tao Shuobai withdrew his movements, looked at Zhou Tingchen again, and couldn't help showing a slight smile.

As soon as he touched Zhou Tingchen, he probed Zhou Tingchen's body and found that it was Junshi!

"You..." Zhou Tingchen was startled by the horror of Tao Shuobai's skill, when he suddenly saw him smile, he was in a daze for a moment.He always felt that this smile seemed familiar.

"I am indeed not Tong Yuwan, and you are not Zhou Tingchen, who are you?" Tao Shuobai asked frankly.

"...I lost my memory, but I know I'm not Zhou Tingchen." Because there will always be some fragmented memories in his mind, which don't belong to Zhou Tingchen, he thinks they belong to himself.

"Amnesia?" This surprised Tao Shuobai.

"Before Zhou Tingchen went to rescue Zhou Mingchang, and burned down the Japanese opium warehouse. He was besieged by Morishita Longyi, and he lost a lot of blood and fell into a coma. Li Shaofeng and Datou rescued him. Li Shaofeng took him to the general's mansion. Zhou Tingchen." Not only did he lose his original memory, but even Zhou Tingchen's memory was incomplete. During his recovery period, he calmly figured out the environment he was in and the relationship with the original owner.

I thought Tong Yuwan's lover was going to join the Du family, and it happened that they would not be in contact with each other in the future, so as to avoid mistakes, but unexpectedly met on the street, Tong Yuwan's temperament changed drastically.He felt weird in his heart, and after two days of private investigation, he found that Tong Yuwan had indeed changed a lot, like a different person.Outsiders said that she was hit by a relationship and decided to abandon love and become a self-reliant new woman, but he made a bold guess based on his own experience, which led to tonight's night spy.

A few nights really didn't come in vain!

"My real name is Tao Shuobai."

"Tao Shuobai..." Zhou Tingchen tasted these three words carefully, and felt more and more familiar.

Tao Shuobai asked him: "What are you going to do now, continue to stay in the General's Mansion as an assassin?"

Zhou Tingchen frowned: "As a warlord, Shen Zhipei is not bad. Originally, Zhou Tingchen decided to elope with Tong Yuwan and had already bid farewell to Shen Zhipei, but this time Zhou Tingchen offended the Japanese, Shen Zhipei still took him in, and it was difficult to leave for a while. Besides, Shen Zhipei is the king of Shanghai, and he is also the biggest and best backer at the moment. There is actually only one troublesome thing about Zhou Tingchen's status——Zhou Mingchang!"

"Zhou Tingchen's father." Tao Shuo understood clearly that Zhou Mingchang was indeed nothing.

"Yes, I must let him settle down, otherwise there will be a big disaster sooner or later." Zhou Tingchen didn't know the original plot, but he could deduce it from Zhou Mingchang's character and behavior.Zhou Tingchen is the confidant of Shanghai Wang Shen Zhipei, but he has a cold personality, and there is no way for others to curry favor with him. As his only relative, Zhou Mingchang has a special liking for opium, so he will naturally be regarded by some people.

Tao Shuobai believed that he had his own means, so he reminded another person: "What do you think of Li Shaofeng?"

"Li Shaofeng?" The corners of Zhou Tingchen's mouth curled up slightly, and his smile was cold and sarcastic: "This man is quite scheming, cunning and insidious, and he is a completely selfish villain! If he is a good brother with the original owner, I don't think so!"

Sure enough, the authorities are confused by the bystanders.

In the original play, Li Shaofeng did all sorts of bad things. On the one hand, he had a deep brotherly relationship with Zhou Tingchen, and on the other hand, he murdered his father Zhou Mingchang. As for his beloved Tong Yuwan, he betrayed Zhou Tingchen's whereabouts countless times, and played him in the palm of his hand.Zhou Tingchen did not have any doubts at first, but after several doubts, he was easily deceived.

Zhou Tingchen is a person who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside. Although he has a great reputation, he really has very little.His mother died tragically since he was a child, his father was like that, the woman he loves is married to someone else, and there is only one "good brother" Li Shaofeng, how can he not take it seriously.

Zhou Tingchen asked suddenly: "Is Tao Shuobai a man?"

Tao Shuobai was taken aback, not knowing whether to nod or not.

With a smile in his eyes, Zhou Tingchen looked "her" up and down, and joked, "You are so blessed now."

Tao Shuobai suddenly laughed angrily, and replied meaningfully: "That's what you said."

Zhou Tingchen was puzzled, feeling something was wrong in his heart.

"It's getting late, you should go." Tao Shuobai gave the order to evict the guest.

"You and I are in the same boat, and 'we' are still lovers. It's too heartless to drive me away like this." Zhou Tingchen sat on the edge of the bed, and the setting of the cold-blooded killer suddenly collapsed, looking like a ruffian.

Tao Shuobai was stunned for a moment, the corners of his mouth slightly turned up, and suddenly he raised his hand, Zhou Tingchen, who was sitting firmly on the bedside, was knocked to the ground by a gentle and irresistible breeze, and before he could figure out what was going on, he was thrown to the ground again. He raised his arm and threw it out the window.

"When you think about your original identity, come and catch up with me." Tao Shuobai said and closed the window.

Zhou Tingchen was amazed by his method, and then found it interesting.

The next day, Tao Shuobai went to the factory first, but was stopped by Tong's father when he was about to leave.

"Yuwan, these are the accounts of the factory, as well as the details of the goods coming in and out. You can read them all. After reading them, come and talk to me." Tong's father didn't want him to waste too much energy in the small Wanju, Coupled with the discovery that he is very keen on the operation of the factory, and can often draw inferences from one instance, Father Tong especially hopes that he can provide some constructive suggestions, which may make the factory profitable.

Tao Shuobai didn't know Tong's father's thoughts, so he nodded and said: "Don't worry, Ama, I will finish reading it as soon as possible."

Tao Shuobai and Suxi carried a large stack of booklets back to the car.

He went to Wanju again, watched the renovation progress for a while, adjusted a few small places, and finally left Suxi to stare.This girl Suxi is also capable, and she has joined Wanju from the beginning, so she knows best.

"I'll go to Li's house, and you will go home later."

When the car arrived at Li's house, Tao Shuobai visited with some gifts.

"Miss Tong is here, please come in quickly, Xuemei is at home." Mrs. Li was surprised when she saw him coming, but she didn't recognize Tao Shuobai at first sight because she was dressed in men's clothing.Mrs. Li's eyes were a little red, and her face was shiny, obviously she had just cried.

The father of the Li family has passed away, and the eldest daughter, Li Xuezhu, married Du Yunwei, the eldest son of the Du family.In addition, there is a youngest daughter, Li Xuemei, and a son, Li Shaofeng.

Li Shaofeng was born by the wife of the Li family. She lost it when she was a child and found it later.

The Li family didn't know at all that the one who came back was not the real Li Shaofeng, but a real little beggar, Fu Gen.

Back then, Tong Yuwan was also trafficked and sold to Zhou Mingchang. Zhou Mingchang had several children under his command, so he asked the children to beg for money for him to smoke opium.Zhou Tingchen couldn't get used to it, and seeing that Tong Yuwan was a little girl, he wanted to send her home.Fu Gen and the real Li Shaofeng ran away, Zhou Mingchang caught up with them afterwards, Fu Gen ran away, but the real Li Shaofeng was beaten to death by Zhou Mingchang.

Seeing this scene, Fu Gen buried the real Li Shaofeng, took the other party's small purse, and planned to go to Li's house to pretend to be a man, and never be a beggar again.Although Fulgan is small, he has been begging on the street since he was a child, and he is quite scheming.He remembered that there was a birthmark on Li Shaofeng's arm, so he burned a scar on the same spot with a fire stick.

I have to say that since I was young, I had this careful planning and cruelty. It is no wonder that my personality became darker and my heart became more and more vicious later.

Li Shaofeng is the only child of the Li family. Master Li loves him like a treasure. Now that Master Li and his concubine are not alive, even if Mrs. Li dislikes Li Shaofeng, there is nothing she can do.In this family, Li Xuemei treats Li Shaofeng the best, but not because of brother-sister affection, but because of love.

Li Xuemei knew that he was not her real brother, but she didn't say anything, not only defended everywhere at home, but also agreed to Shen Zhipei's marriage proposal for Li Shaofeng.

Although the Li family is very difficult, Mrs. Li loves her daughter and is not optimistic about Li Xuemei marrying into the general's mansion, and she even angered Li Shaofeng for it.

"Yuwan, you're here!" Li Xuemei came out from the house and dragged Tao Shuobai to the living room.Looking him up and down again, he said amusedly, "Why are you dressing up like this? Why, you don't want to be Miss Tong, but Master Tong?"

Tao Shuobai was not used to it for a while, so he withdrew his hand, afraid that the other party would be suspicious, so he put the snacks he brought on the table under an excuse.To be honest, Tao Shuobai is not good at comforting people, especially a girl, and he doesn't know what the two girls are going to say, so he feels uncomfortable since sitting down.

Sweeping his eyes, he saw a piano and a few paintings on one side of the living room, so he asked, "Have you painted recently?"

Li Xuemei's eyes darkened: "Where do you still have the heart to paint? By the way, I heard that you have opened a Wanju? When it opens, I will definitely send you a big flower basket. I wish you a prosperous business and become a newcomer in Shanghai. A generation of women!"

Tao Shuobai could hear her bitterness and hope, and couldn't help asking, "Is it worth it?"

Li Xuemei looked at her: "What?"

"You agreed to marry Shen Zhipei because of Li Shaofeng, right? Is it worth it?"

Li Xuemei lowered her head and smiled faintly: "This is my own decision."

Of course Tao Shuobai knew it was her own decision, no matter how Li Shaofeng coaxed her, it was because she took Li Shaofeng too seriously, so she was willing to marry someone she didn't love or even fear.Li Xuemei is a silly girl, Li Shaofeng is not worthy of her sacrifice at all, because Li Shaofeng is too selfish, he has no feelings for Li Xuemei, but the last thing he thinks of is himself, if he expresses his attitude, will Li Xuemei still marry ?

Tao Shuobai didn't try to persuade him any more, and it was useless to persuade him.

Tao Shuobai chatted with Li Xuemei about painting. He had studied painting in the world of the Republic of China before, and Tong Yuwan also studied painting. It would be easier to talk about this topic.But he and Tong Yuwan have different painting styles, so he revealed a few words that he is studying landscape oil painting recently, which can be regarded as a foundation first.

In a few days, the decoration of Wanju was completed and the goods arrived, and Tao Shuobai was ready to open on another day.

The opening was scheduled for the [-]th, and Tao Shuobai also made careful preparations for the advertisement.On the last day, I checked the display of the items in the store, and explained the precautions to the two shop assistants.These two clerks were selected by Tao Shuobai from the maids of the Tong family. They are young, energetic, smart, and most importantly, they are courageous and not stage-frightened.

Tao Shuobai designed a poster, asked people to post it on the street, printed a batch of leaflets, recruited two small newsboys to help distribute them, and put up a banner on the street with the opening bonus.For a modest home furnishings store, the hype is enough for now.What's more, Pidgin Street is already bustling with a lot of traffic, but the interior and exterior layout of Wanju is unique and very eye-catching.

On the [-]th, with a burst of firecrackers, Wanju officially opened.

Tong's father and Tong's mother came to support him and sent a pair of flower baskets to show his support.Surprisingly, Du Ruida also came, bringing his eldest wife Ling Baozhu and Du Yuntang.Sure enough, Li Xuemei sent a flower basket, and was enthusiastically busy.In addition, there were some flower baskets, which were sent by people who were close friends of Tong's family, and some neighbors who had a good impression of Tong Yuwan because of the rent collection before, and there was a flower basket sent by Datou.

Zhou Tingchen did not show up because of his sensitive identity.

It is very attractive that Wanju offers a [-]% discount for the opening ceremony, and there is a small gift for every consumption.The posters and leaflets spread widely, and it was the weekend, so one can imagine how lively it was.Many people come here just to join in the fun with curiosity, but when they see something they like, they can't help but be driven by the lively atmosphere. If you buy it, I will buy it too.

Except for the two female shop assistants, Suxi, Li Xuemei and Tao Shuobai were all greeting customers.

Du Ruida's family was entertained by Tong's father and Tong's mother.

Du Ruida praised without hesitation: "Yuwan is really extraordinary. Although this Wanju is still small in scale, it has such a momentum on the first day of opening. If you can keep this mind, I believe there will be a second soon." Home, the third Wanju, it will not be a small business by then."

"President Du has won the award. This is all Yu Wan's petty trouble. Let her go." Tong's father said so, but his face was extremely proud, because Tong's mother didn't approve of girls doing business. , I feel particularly honored today.

Du Yuntang was unhappy, and couldn't help but sang the opposite tune: "The words on the scene are too exaggerated, what if people think it's true? Heck, it's just the first day, and it's fine if you don't lose money in the future."

"Yun Tang!" Ling Baozhu quickly stopped him.

Tong's father and Tong's mother didn't look good. They were afraid that today would be a good day, so they endured the attack.

Du Ruida wished he could slap him: "I think you're just jealous! Yuwan, a girl, knows how to start a business and be self-reliant, what about you? You mess around all day long! Even Yuwan is worse than you!"

"I..." Du Yuntang wanted to refute.

Ling Baozhu grabbed him, winking constantly.Although Ling Baozhu was not happy that Du Ruida said that his son was not as good as Tong Yuwan, but at this time, he couldn't add fuel to the fire, otherwise Yun Tang would definitely suffer.

Seeing his mother's face, Du Yuntang endured it, saw "Tong Yuwan" who was explaining to the guests, and said with a cynical smile: "Wanju is very happy to open, I'm going to say congratulations to the boss."

Tao Shuobai happened to sell something, collected the money and kept the accounts, and Du Yuntang came to him.

Looking up at the person in front of him, he was dressed in a white suit, handsome, tall, with a cynical smile on his face, his eyes were indifferent to everything, a standard rich second-generation romantic.Of course Tao Shuobai knew that this was Du Yuntang's disguise, his protective cover to escape from reality, but from those careless eyes, he also saw the hostility and hatred towards "Tong Yuwan".

Qingping is Du Yuntang's first love, Qingping's silence was mistaken by Du Yuntang to think that they are in love with each other.

Du Yuntang always said that Qingping was the purest and most beautiful person he had ever met. Qingping was indeed beautiful, beautiful, weak and helpless, and talented in music. Which man would not like it?Unfortunately, Qingping died.For Du Yuntang, there was such a beautiful person in front of him, and before he had time to take good care of him, Yiren had already passed away.He has pain, regret, and even self-blame and guilt...

When Qingping was taken away from Wanju by Zhou Mingchang, he was unable to protect her and watched her become someone else's woman.

Now that Du Yuntang saw the murderer "Tong Yuwan" living so happily and complacently, he cared more about Qingping's death in his heart and resented the murderer even more.

Tao Shuobai is not Tong Yuwan.

Tao Shuobai gave him a cold look, and said first: "Come with me."

Du Yuntang frowned, but followed him involuntarily.

The store was full of people, very crowded, Tao Shuobai took him out of Wanju, and walked to a quiet alley.

"Why did you bring me here?" Du Yuntang asked impatiently.

Tao Shuobai didn't care about his attitude, and his expression was still indifferent: "I'll just say these words once, believe it or not, it's up to you. If you hate me because of Qingping's death, you don't have to. I was the one who sent Qingping Ping was rescued from Mrs. Jin's car and settled in Wanju Bieyuan, but Qingping went to find Li Shaofeng. They both studied music, they were confidants, and they became lovers."

"I don't believe it!" Du Yuntang was emotional.

Tao Shuobai ignored him, and continued: "Qingping begged Li Shaofeng to save her. Li Shaofeng probably really liked Qingping, so he agreed. Unfortunately, Qingping has asthma, and if she gets sick, she will die without medicine. You should all know that you just stood guard at the door of the pharmacy until Qingping arrived?"

"On the day of the Zhou family's church meeting, Li Shaofeng and Li Xuemei came to the stage to sing "Wang Baochuan". This was someone who planned behind the scenes, but Shen Zhipei was annoyed. Li Shaofeng was probably a little disappointed. Coincidentally, Zhou Tingchen and him are good brothers , went backstage to see him, and put my clothes on him. At that time, I was looking for Zhou Tingchen. Who knew, I just saw Qingping having an affair with a man. That man was wearing Zhou Tingchen's clothes, and I was surprised for a moment , thought it was Zhou Tingchen, turned around and ran away. Later, feeling wrong, he turned back, but was beaten unconscious..."

"This is all your own opinion!" Du Yuntang refused to believe it, but the free eyes showed that he believed at least part of it.

"I ran out and met Li Xuemei. I said I saw Qingping and Zhou Tingchen having an affair together. It was a coincidence that Zhou Mingchang heard about it. So when I turned back, Zhou Mingchang rushed over first. He thought it was Qingping. Aroused his son*. Zhou Mingchang beat Qingping to death, and I arrived on my back foot, and then he knocked me unconscious to set the blame. Before I passed out, I not only saw Zhou Mingchang's face, but also saw the secret door on the side open There is a gap where Li Shaofeng hid. From the beginning to the end, he witnessed Qingping being beaten and shot to death."

"Why didn't you say it back then? Why didn't you say it!" Du Yuntang staggered back, his mood now was not much stronger than when he saw Qingping's body.

"That's all I want to say." Tao Shuobai lifted his foot and left the alley.

He is not Tong Yuwan, who allows people to guess and misunderstand, has many worries, and does not tell the truth.What's more, Tong Yuwan's lover Zhou Tingchen has changed his soul, if Zhou Mingchang can go to jail, I'm afraid Zhou Tingchen will be happy.

Du Yuntang didn't say anything, but actually believed these words, but while he hated the real murderer Zhou Mingchang, he also hated Li Shaofeng and Tong Yuwan who were standing by and watching.He felt that Qingping's death was caused by Tong Yuwan's words, although he knew rationally that even without Tong Yuwan, Zhou Mingchang would have broken through the matter of those two.

The most difficult thing for Du Yuntang to accept was that Qingping didn't love him, and would rather be beaten to death to protect Li Shaofeng.

Tao Shuobai returned to Wanju, just in time to send Du's parents away, Tong's father and Tong's mother stayed for a while and then left.

After a busy day, after closing the door, Tao Shuobai took the account book home and calculated today's profit after dinner.From morning to night, the store was never empty, not to mention the two female shop assistants, even Su Xi's voice was hoarse.Tao Shuobai also entertained a lot of guests, but he has a special physique, without any signs of fatigue.

"Miss, you are really amazing." Su Xi was in admiration.

Tao Shuobai frowned when she heard her speak in a hoarse voice: "Have you taken your medicine?"

"I've made a cup of sea seeds and drank it." Suxi put down a soup cup in front of him: "This is the soup that my wife asked me to bring. It's a soup made with rock sugar, pear, and Chuanbei powder."

"Okay, stop talking, go to sleep." Tao Shuobai waved his hand.

Su Xi stared at the account curiously.

Tao Shuobai scanned it once and knew the number, and said, "nearly a thousand."

Suxi opened her mouth wide, jumped up in surprise, and then ran out to announce the good news to Tong's father and mother.
