Yan Xiaohui studied in the UK and belongs to the typical petty bourgeoisie ideologically. He should not care about political disputes. There are all kinds of political parties and organizations in the UK. There is also a Communist Party in the UK, and it is a legal organization.
"It's nothing. Dad just told me who I can approach and who I can't approach, let alone contact, so that I can learn to protect myself."
"Oh, so I can still be approached and contacted..." Lu Ming laughed at himself.
"The famous Mr. Lu, who in Shanghai doesn't want to know you and be close to you?" Yan Xiaohui also joked.
"Why don't I feel it at all? I didn't see anyone approaching me." Lu Ming thought this was still a joke.
"Master Lu's family is a family friend of President Sheng, he is an American citizen, and he has a good teacher. Am I right?" Yan Xiaohui smiled playfully.
Lu Ming suddenly realized: "I understand, I understand, Uncle Yan wants to do business with Americans?"
"Who in the world doesn't want to do business with Americans? If the Japanese don't do business with Americans, they won't be able to survive for half a year. But he didn't say what my father was thinking, and I don't know either. I don't know about business matters.
No need to ask." Yan Xiaohui smiled.
Although Lu Ming realized it later, he still understood it.
Yan Xiaohui's words are very straightforward. His identity is a trump card, plus he has a teacher Mr. Frank who is closely related to Washington. He is going to heaven.
But the U.S. Consulate General in Shanghai is right there. Wouldn’t it be more straightforward to curry favor with the Consul General?
"Don't think too much about it. I'm not approaching you for fame and fortune. I'm..." Yan Xiaohui hurriedly defended.
"I know you are not here for fame and fortune, but for me." Lu Ming smiled mysteriously.
"That's really smart. You're right." Yan Xiaohui admitted generously.
Lu Ming turned his head hurriedly. He couldn't continue the conversation, otherwise there would be big problems.
At this moment, the door opened, and Yan Hongdao came in. When he saw his daughter, he said, "Why are you still hiding here? His Excellency Shigemoto is about to arrive..."
Halfway through the conversation, when he saw Lu Ming standing aside and the two of them chatting happily, Yan Hongdao thought that his daughter was communicating with Lu Ming to enhance their relationship, so he smiled and said, "It's my nephew, just come here."
"As long as you're here, Xiao Hui, just stay with nephew Lu Xian." After saying that, he left quickly.
Yan Xiaohui looked at his father running away in embarrassment and suddenly burst into laughter. As a father, his worries were too ridiculous.
Lu Ming was also a little embarrassed. It was obvious that Yan Hongdao had misunderstood, but the misunderstanding was not much. Yan Xiaohui was obviously really communicating with him to promote feelings, but he had no intention of doing so.
However, he could see his weight in Yan Hongdao's heart. Apparently Yan Hongdao felt that it was more important for his daughter to develop a relationship with Lu Ming than to welcome Zhuang Fan, although it seemed that the two things were unrelated.
Of course, this does not mean that Lu Ming is more important than Benzhuang Fan, but there are many people to greet Benzhuang Fan, neither more nor less, but the only one who can get close to Lu Ming is his daughter.
Make the best use of people's talents and make the best use of materials. This is also the true nature of businessmen.
"Why are you laughing? It looks like you scared your dad away." Lu Ming joked.
"I suddenly thought, you said that if my father had married your mother, would you and I still be in the world? Maybe we could really be brothers and sisters."
"Aren't we also brothers and sisters now? We have lived through life and death, and we are brothers and sisters..." Lu Ming explained awkwardly.
"Haha, do you really think so?" Yan Xiaohui raised her beautiful eyebrows and smiled meaningfully.
"That's what I think. There is a saying that we share life and death and share fate." Lu Ming continued to talk nonsense.
"What you said is too empty. You should think boldly. For example, right now, this empty house is the whole world, and there are only two of us left in this world..." Yan Xiaohui said rather ambiguously, his eyes full of dreams.
like colors.
Lu Ming didn't dare to answer her words, and he didn't dare to look into her eyes, otherwise he would really fall in love. Inadvertently, through the window, he saw a car stop downstairs, and a person walked out, and suddenly frowned and said
:"Why is he here?"
"Who is here? How annoying!" Yan Xiaohui lightly stomped his feet, showing a look of disgust.
"Sheng Di, what is he doing here?" Lu Ming was a little surprised.
The person who got off the car was none other than Sheng Di. This guy's Italian leather shoes today were rocket-style and extremely dazzling. He was wearing a handmade three-piece suit, and he had a silk handkerchief inserted diagonally in his jacket pocket.
Chinese people are not used to wearing handkerchiefs when wearing suits. There is a reason for this.
King Charles II of England in the Middle Ages was only ten years old when he inherited the throne. He had a runny nose as a child and could not correct it after sitting on the throne, so he asked his attendants to bring a small piece of cloth that could be used to wipe the nose clean at any time.
The attendant did not dare to neglect, so he immediately found a tailor and cut some small pieces of cloth out of thin linen.
In order to make it easier for the king to access it, the attendant also asked the tailor to sew a pocket on the left chest of his coat to hold a small piece of cloth, which could be easily taken out when the king wanted to wipe his nose.
One time the king forgot to put a corner of the handkerchief into his pocket. When the ministers saw it, they thought it was very unique, so they followed suit and sewed the bag on their chest, put the handkerchief on and deliberately exposed a corner.
Lu Ming's mind was a little confused for a moment. Sheng Youde had publicly stated to him that he did not want him to participate in similar activities. Why would Sheng Di be allowed to participate in such a banquet?
"What's wrong, shouldn't Sheng Di come?" Yan Xiaohui didn't understand what Lu Ming meant.
"No, I thought Mr. Sheng would attend in person, but he was sent instead." Lu Ming covered up.
"Oh, Old Man Sheng has a lot of things to do, and we can't invite him. It's already a big honor for Brother Sheng Shi to come." Yan Xiaohui said a little sourly.
Lu Ming could tell that the relationship between the Sheng family and the Yan family was not good. This was probably not just because of the grudges between the elders. The shopping mall was a battlefield, and people who worked together were enemies.
"We'd better go out, the welcome banquet is about to start." Lu Ming opened the door and strode out. Yan Xiaohui was a little reluctant, so she had no choice but to follow.
The two of them walked out of the house and turned a corner, just in time to see Sheng Di coming up the stairs.
Seeing Lu Ming, Sheng Di was a little surprised and a little panicked, but he immediately calmed down, stepped forward and said with a smile: "You are here too, I thought you would definitely come."
Lu Ming pulled him aside and asked in a low voice: "Ask me, I also want to ask you, did Mr. Sheng agree to your coming?"
Sheng Di said generously, "Of course my uncle sent me here. The Sheng and Yan families are family friends. The Yan family held a banquet and no one from the Sheng family came. Wouldn't it be a joke to outsiders? Hey, did my uncle send you too?"
?”
"I came here because of other matters." Lu Ming said.
"Let me tell you, you must not be sorry to Mingzhu, otherwise you will know Mingzhu's temper." Sheng Di looked at Yan Xiaohui, who was not far behind Lu Ming, and warned.
"Don't worry, there is nothing wrong between me and her."
"It's all clear now. Seeing that you are so close, I'm afraid I won't be able to say for sure in the future. You two almost made an appointment to have a baby." Sheng Di deliberately made a worried expression.
"You actually know this?" Lu Ming felt so strange.
"Who doesn't know? Maybe you are the only one who doesn't know." Sheng Di smiled evilly.
Lu Ming's face looked a little ugly. It seemed that many people knew about this matter, but the two parties involved were kept in the dark.
Hey, does Mingzhu know? Why does she have a natural hostility towards Yan Xiaohui? As soon as Lu Ming came up with this idea, he immediately slapped himself.
Mingzhu definitely didn't know about this. If she knew, she wouldn't be able to hide it in her heart and avoid talking about it because of her temperament.
At this time, Yan Xiaohui came up to say hello to Sheng Di. His expression looked unnatural, and he looked like a famous lady putting on a show.
Lu Ming and Sheng Di couldn't say anything else, and the three of them slowly walked towards the venue while talking politely.
