Hope for luck

Chapter 108 Touching the Secret
"I know that nothing I say right now can convince my boss, but I can only give you a verbal promise, and I can't do anything else!"

After a while of silence, Gao Pan broke the silence and said calmly.

"Oh? Is that so, if the little woman must give you an explanation?"

The hostess on the opposite side suddenly stood up, revealing a slim and tight figure, and the well-cut dress perfectly reflected her grace and charm.

After letting Gao Pan look at it, his eyes flickered, and he even felt his throat a little itchy.

Immediately, Gao Pan looked away, and felt a little better, thinking, this hostess is not only beautiful, but also a beauty in the world in terms of figure!
"That is to let me die! I don't know if the boss has such courage?" Gao Pan replied in a low voice.

The hostess naturally also felt Gao Pan's aggressive gaze, and her heart trembled, thinking, this person in front of him is obviously just a young boy, but his gaze is so 'sophisticated'?
Thinking of this, the hostess's pretty face was slightly flushed, and she calmly brought a red cloak from somewhere and put it on her body, wrapping herself tightly.

Immediately, he said calmly:
"If I had known this, I shouldn't have trusted you so much. However, I also have a solution here. If you are willing, I can find a way to let you still be the county magistrate, but not here!"

Seeing her wrapping her cloak around in this room, is it obvious that she hates herself, or is it to hide herself?
Gao Pan began to feel a little dissatisfied in his heart, and then heard her say, can he continue to be the county magistrate?
Where does she have such great power?Even if it was the Gao family, Gao Qiyuan must have put in a lot of thought for the magistrate of Dantang County, which no one did!

But in the mouth of the hostess, she said it lightly, as if it was insignificant.

Who is she?What do you want to do again?
These are the two questions that Gao Pan urgently wants to know in his mind at this moment.

"I don't know, except for powerful people who can do this, who else can do it? If I continue to be the county magistrate, what will the boss want me to do?"

Gao Pan has a lot of doubts in his heart, so naturally he won't agree easily, it's better to ask clearly first.

"I can't tell you too much right now, but the little woman doesn't have the power you mentioned, but I can guarantee that you can still sit on the county magistrate!"

The female hostess lightly parted her red lips and said lightly.

Hearing this, Gao Pan frowned, and became even more curious about the origin of the hostess, so he couldn't help asking:
"Haven't you asked your host's husband's family name?"

"Miangui, my husband's family is just a small family with no known name, the surname is Ning! The little lady's family name is Yan."

The hostess knew why Gao Pan asked such a question, but she didn't seem to intend to hide it and said it directly.

Hearing this, Gao Pan was taken aback for a moment, and asked softly:

"Yan Dong's family, I would like to ask, why did you let a woman like you show up in public? Where is your husband? Where is the husband's family?"

This question made the hostess hesitate for a long time before she said in a low voice:
"Dead...they're all dead..."

Listening to the deep voice, Gao Pan felt a chill emanating from the soles of his feet and spreading all over his body?In broad daylight, there is actually a chilling feeling.

His face also became a little pale, and he quickly said:
"I'm sorry, Yan Dong's family, I don't know..."

"That's not necessary. They've been dead for many years, and I don't mind anymore... Well, you've finished asking what you should have asked. How do you think about it?"

Before Gao Pan finished speaking, he was interrupted by the hostess and forced to ask.

Gao Pan couldn't see anything wrong with what the hostess said, but he always felt that something was wrong!

"Thank you, Dong's family, for your kindness. I think I'm just leaving Dantang for a while, and I'll come back again in a short time. As for the money you invested in the Yamen Bank, I can guarantee that there will be absolutely no problem. Both, you can go to the Gao family in the capital to settle accounts with me at any time!"

After Gao Pan took a deep breath, he looked at her seriously and said.

From the initial curiosity to the dissatisfaction and suspicion at the moment, Gao Pan has complicated views on the woman in front of him.

There is a feeling of indescribable aloofness and refusal to be thousands of miles away, even like a god-man separated from the world?
This absurd illusion caused Gao Pan to think more and more, and the woman in front of him became more and more mysterious.

At this moment, Gao Pan is somewhat dissatisfied with her, also somewhat ashamed, and somewhat curious, plus a little suspicious.

He originally thought that the hostess was really here to question her previous investment of 1 taels of silver.

It wasn't until he asked him if he had considered it well that Gao Pan realized that the hostess came to him not to question him, but to 'praise' him to the top position?

Although I don't know where this female boss's family has the confidence to let him continue to be the county magistrate, but in terms of this tone, Gao Pan feels that she must not be lying.

But if this is the case, then it can be regarded as a hand and eye, comparable to the noble family of the Gao family!

But she said that her husband's family was just a small family with little reputation, so where did she get the confidence?

Therefore, subconsciously, Gao Pan felt that it was better to stay away from this woman, as if he smelled a dangerous smell from her.

After hearing Gao Pan's answer, the female hostess had a flash of dissatisfaction in her eyes, but it soon dissipated, and no one noticed except herself.

Putting on a frosty look, he said:

"Since that's the case, the little lady has nothing to say, I just hope that Mrs. Gao can do what she says, and the little lady is also waiting for Mrs. Gao to return to the alchemy hall to take charge!"

Even though Gao Pan was opposite her, he still felt the coldness coming to his face, he was taken aback for a second, then made another promise, got up and left.

From being gentle and warm at the beginning, to being aloof when talking, to being icy cold at this moment, Gao Pan could see that this woman's multi-faceted nature was definitely beyond the control that ordinary people can do.

……

After Gao Pan left, the room fell into a brief silence, and the table was full of delicacies, which did not attract the hostess' attention at all.

"My lord, Yang Mingchun asks to see you!"

At this moment, a voice sounded from outside the door.

Let the hostess, who was motionless like an ice sculpture, wake up in an instant, and replied calmly: "Come in!"

And the person who came in was none other than Yang Mingchun, the second head of Zhongli Shanzhai, who was also Gao Pan's internal response to instigate rebellion.

Unexpectedly, he actually knew the hostess, and called her the Lord, with a respectful appearance, like a servant, first came in and saluted the hostess respectfully:
"Yang Mingchun sees the Lord!"

The hostess waved her hand, didn't speak, just looked at him.

"The subordinates are responsible for the entrustment of the master. Zhongli Shanzhai is a complete failure!" Yang Mingchun said with a look of shame.

"It's okay, I was just trying to test it! If it doesn't work, then find another way!"

The hostess spoke very quietly, but Yang Mingchun heard it clearly, his face was still full of shame, as if he had done something wrong.
