Chapter fifty-fifth letter again

Jing Yu was a little difficult to answer about Alice Herbert's question. He didn't know what the world had been twisted with the history he knew, but at least it seemed that it was far bigger than he thought.

Recalling the fact that everyone he had met in London before didn't know the whole world very well, they seemed to have never heard of China or the Qing Dynasty in their history. Jing Yu's deliberate blurring of his origin before seemed to have caused Ralph Stanford to doubt it.

But these are the things that will happen in the future. He now needs to face Miss Alice Herbert's expectant gaze.

"Miss Herbert, where did you know this music?" Jing Yu didn't want to continue with her this topic, but instead asked.

According to Alice Herbert, he was recognized at Stanford Manor because several of the young people attending the banquet also attended Jing Yu's typewriter conference, so he was not unfamiliar with Jing Yu. After he played the piano, he told others that the name of the music was "To Alice", the interested person immediately remembered it, thinking that this was a good way to eliminate Jing Yu, a competitor. So after he left, he immediately associated the relationship between Jing Yu and Miss Alice of Herbert's factory, and told Carol Stanford that he hoped that the lady could recognize the fact that Jing Yu already had a favorite.

And not only that, the young man seemed to have written anonymously after leaving Stanford Manor, explaining the matter at the banquet, hoping that she would not let Jing Yu contact Miss Carol Stanford again and let Jing Yu, the competitor, be completely eliminated.

Jing Yu never expected that when he was in danger, a multi-acting show was being staged on the other side of the scene that was struggling with love.

"I have brought this letter too." After Miss Herbert explained it clearly, she took out the letter and showed it to him. Jing Yu also found that the letter was also printed by a typewriter. The letter was not signed by hand at the end, but it was just a name that "don't want to leave a name", so it was impossible to guess the specific identity of the sender.

It seems that some people think they seem to be very threatening, so they try their best to get themselves out.

Jing Yu guessed that it was probably because of this reason that Carol Stanford began to look for him and wanted to ask him. Then, afterwards, he found out that he was locked up by his father and secretly let him go. However, he probably wouldn't have a chance to confirm with the person involved. He would never contact Ralph Stanford again.

"Mr. ian, do you really like Miss Carol Stamford?" Alice Herbert looked at Jing Yu thinking about something, so he opened his eyes and looked at him curiously and asked.

"I think this gentleman who wrote anonymously misunderstood completely. I don't like Miss Carol Stamford. I went there that day because his father invited me to talk about something else." Jing Yu immediately explained, but did not say why he went there.

But Alice Herbert seemed not interested in his affairs with Mr. Ralph Stamford, but asked, "Did you meet that Miss Stamford? Is she really that beautiful as rumored?"

No matter how stupid Jing Yu was, he knew that he could not praise another woman for her beauty in front of him, so he hurriedly said: "I was mainly talking to her father at that time and didn't notice Miss Stamford."

"Is that?" Alice stared at him, "I heard that the lady also had a large dowry and an annuity of £5,000."

"Miss Alice", Jing Yu interrupted her and asked loudly with some rudeness: "What the hell do you want to say?"

"Ah," Alice Herbert seemed to be frightened by Jing Yu's voice, "No, nothing."

"I'm very busy now, I'm afraid there's no time. Miss Alice, I think you should deal with the factory matters too." Jing Yu didn't want to have a puzzle with the other party, so he issued an order to expel the guest.

"Sorry, I just..." Alice Herbert tried to explain again, and then stopped talking.

At the same time, Jing Yu saw the butler Andrew coming over with a tray again, "Sir, Mr. Ralph Stamford's letter."

Jing Yu immediately took the letter and the letter-opening knife from the tray, took out the letter paper, and looked directly without caring about Alice's curious gaze.

"Dear Mr. Jing, I'm sorry that I didn't receive your reply after waiting for a few days. I was really serious about my last proposal and there was no deception. Neither I nor my daughter Carol, I was extremely eager to get your response. But now because of business matters, my daughter and I have to return to the New World, so I can't wait for your news in London in the future. If you have any changes, please tell me immediately. I'm very happy to meet you again anyway."

It turned out that the other party was finally leaving London and returning to the New World. Jing Yu immediately felt a little relaxed. If he was not in London, he would not be so nervous. However, if the other party really wanted to leave, he would probably have to let Liwen and the others stare at it.

Then he continued to look, "I am very sorry to say to you about the last time, and you should have a hard time understanding the excitement of the sudden possibility of someone who has been studying ‘that place’ for decades. If you are willing to share anything about where, I am very grateful. As you know, I have made some money in the oil business, and 'where' is far more important to me than these wealth, and to know that you are still living in a small house I rented now, to express my apologies for being unhappy with you last time, I have transferred this estate to your name and you can handle it as you want after I leave, so if you have any more requests, I am also very willing to satisfy you, and look forward to meeting you again, your sincere Ralph Stamford."

Jing Yu didn't know why the other party was so persistent. He did not reply to the last letter, but the other party wrote a new letter and wanted to give him the Stanford Manor. It is said that he bought it there for 20,000 pounds, and originally wanted to give it to his daughter.

So Jing Yu felt that he had to explain this matter clearly. He needed to make the other party give up completely, otherwise Ralph Stamford's enthusiasm doesn't know what to do next.

But before that, he had to send Alice Herbert back first. At this time, she was looking at the letter in her hand, and seemed to want to know what was written in it.

"Miss Alice", Jing Yu took the letter away, but had no intention of showing it to the other party.

"Oh, sorry, it seems that I should leave." Alice Herbert seemed to think of something, so he stood up and said goodbye to Jing Yu.
