Because it was the peak period at noon, Yang Chen delayed arriving at Baoqing Hotel until 11:30.
Wang Lixin sent messages and called again, but Yang Chen didn't want to pay attention to her, so he didn't give any response.
Therefore, Wang Lixin determined that Yang Chen would not come.
This Hongmen Banquet was organized just for Yang Chen. It would be meaningless if he didn’t come.
Zhang Jiankun and Wang Lixin had a showdown. He refused to invite everyone to this meal.
Wang Lixin was stunned when she heard that she was calling everyone AA at this time, so how could she get along with these classmates in the future?
The two started to quarrel while they were talking, and the students in the box quickly came out to see what was going on.
After knowing what Zhang Jiankun meant, the students were really furious.
Some people just come here to have a meal, and now if they are asked to be AA, they will definitely not be willing.
"Wang Lixin, it's boring for you two to do this. Although we are not rich people, we still have money for a meal, so we don't have to let you treat us. But you deceived us in the name of treating us, and now you say we want to
We are AA, do you find it interesting?"
"No one forces you to treat us, but since you have proposed it, you must do it. What do you think we are, fools?"
"Thanks to us for helping you condemn Yang Chen, you treat us like this?"
……
Wang Lixin cried and complained to Zhang Jiankun: "Are you happy? You have to make me become a traitor, right?"
Zhang Jiankun immediately replied: "They are your classmates, not mine, why should I treat them?"
Wang Lixin fired back: "Then why did you use my mobile phone to send a message saying you wanted to treat me? Aren't you destroying me?"
Zhang Jiankun stopped talking.
At this time, Wu Tao, who had always had thoughts about Wang Lixin, felt that an opportunity had come.
Last time Wang Lixin was trapped on the cross-river bridge, he wanted to drive to pick her up.
Zhang Jiankun was there at that time, so he didn't have the nerve to go there.
Now that Zhang Jiankun and Wang Lixin are having conflicts, he feels that his opportunity has come.
Of course, he does not want to pay for the meal himself, but to convince everyone to AA, which can also help Wang Lixin solve her urgent need.
"Okay, okay. You are right. You are not our classmate, so you don't want to attend our class reunion. We don't need to pay for the meal. Since we are all here, AA will be AA.
"You can't just cancel the meal and leave the restaurant, right? That would be too shameful for us. Do you think that's right?" Wu Tao said.
The situation has developed to this point, and it seems that this is the only way to go.
Wu Tao continued: "Zhang Jiankun, you don't care about Wang Lixin's feelings so much. I think you don't love her at all. If you love her, how could you embarrass her in front of so many old classmates?"
Zhang Jiankun laughed, took out a stack of money from his bag, and said: "I don't have money to treat, but you are not my classmates, and I have no reason to treat. Do you understand?"
Wang Lixin wiped her tears and said: "Zhang Jiankun, let's break up. I don't want to see you again, so get out of here right away!"
Zhang Jiankun laughed and said: "If you break up, break up. Don't regret it!"
Seeing that his plan was successful, Wu Tao quickly said with a smile: "Okay, okay, don't ruin your mood because of him. Let's go back to the box and have dinner."
After saying that, Wu Tao pushed Wang Lixin into the box, and the others sighed helplessly and followed suit.
Zhang Jiankun let out a long breath, turned around and entered the box next door.
There are 10 people in this box, all of whom Zhang Jiankun invited to help deal with Yang Chen.
Now that Yang Chen is not here, this money has been wasted.
Wu Tao's family background is not bad, mainly because his uncle runs a company, and he is now the business manager of his uncle's company, so his starting point is higher than others.
When he usually entertains clients, he usually brings them to Baoqing Hotel.
Now that Zhang Jiankun has been kicked out, he is the most knowledgeable person in this dinner.
"Although AA, I can guarantee that you will not regret it. This Baoqing Restaurant is a local brand in Haicheng and will be launched soon. You can eat eight major cuisines here, as well as Western food, etc. The location of the main store is particularly good
, only one kilometer away from the Pearl Tower, and not far to the south is the Bund. When customers come, I basically take them here to eat, and no customer has a bad opinion." Wu Tao talked eloquently.
Other students are ordinary employees and generally have no access to such hotels.
But after hearing Wu Tao's introduction, the students became more cautious.
The better he says, the more expensive the meal will be.
These are young people who have just graduated a year ago, and most of them have to rely on financial support from their families to survive in a city like Haicheng.
If the meal is too expensive, even AA will not be able to afford it.
"It's good, but I'm afraid that after eating this meal, I will eat dirt for the rest of this month."
"I checked last night and the per capita consumption here is 500 yuan."
"Damn it, it's so expensive. I'm not afraid of your jokes. I just changed my job and my probation period hasn't passed yet. Now I can only survive with the support of my family. If I take out 500 yuan at once, I will really have to eat dirt later." "Wang Lixin, have you ordered the food? How much will it cost?"
……
Wang Lixin panicked and quickly replied: "About 8,000."
There are 14 people in total. Doesn’t more than 8,000 mean that each person has to pay nearly 600 yuan?
"Damn it, not only will I have to pay for it, but I won't even be able to pay the phone bill."
"Which of you is richer, lend me some. I will pay you back when your salary is paid next month."
"Wang Lixin, please lend me some money. It's you who caused this. It's unreasonable for you not to help."
"Yes, yes, we won't let you treat us. You have to lend us AA money to pay for it."
……
Ever since she was scolded by Yang Chen in front of everyone, Wang Lixin has resigned herself to living off men.
After graduation, she changed three jobs, all of which were dismissed before the trial period expired.
She relies entirely on Zhang Jiankun for support, so how can she lend them money?
"I...I don't have any money either. I don't have a job now, so I won't have another meal after finishing this meal." Wang Lixin said in a low voice.
This isn't a class reunion, it's clearly a competition.
Wu Tao felt that the opportunity was ripe, and quickly said with a smile: "Idiot, aren't you? It's only 600 yuan that makes it difficult for you to do this? If you really can't get it, I will lend it to you. Remember to pay your salary next month
I’ll be fine.”
"Brother Tao, it's still up to you!"
"When we are in school, Brother Tao is our big brother. When we come out of school, we still have to rely on you."
"Wang Lixin, don't you think a man like Brother Tao is more reliable than that Zhang Jiankun?"
"That's right, that's right, you also broke up. Brother Tao was also interested in you back then, and you know it, so why not try to be together now."
"Yes, yes! This is good, this is good. We can't really just come for a meal. If you two become a couple, it will be considered that our AA has not been in vain."
……
Wu Tao was overjoyed, thinking that these old classmates were quite discerning.
Wang Lixin was also very happy. She had just lost Zhang Jiankun's meal ticket, and Wu Tao took the initiative to give it to her. Isn't this a seamless connection?
However, as a girl, you should be reserved when facing emotional problems and play hard to get, right?
"Oh, don't talk nonsense. Wu Tao is so good, he must have a girlfriend. If people find out, it will be misunderstood." Wang Lixin said very greenly.
Wu Tao quickly smiled and said: "Yes, yes, everyone, please stop joking. Although I don't have a girlfriend, Xiaoxin has just ended one relationship, how can she start another relationship immediately? Stop making trouble, let's serve food quickly.
”
"Oh, Xiaoxin, your scream is so sweet."
"Damn it, you two deserve it, don't resist, you just decided happily."
"It would be unforgivable for the two of you not to be together!"
……
The classmates still worked hard and made Wu Tao very happy.
Wu Tao suddenly became excited and said: "Well, everyone is so happy today, let's do something stupid. I will treat everyone to this meal for Xiaoxin. It only costs more than 8,000 yuan, and I can still afford it." "Brother Tao, domineering!"
"Brother Tao, you are my brother!"
"Wang Lixin, such a responsible man, don't hesitate to miss it."
……
Wang Lixin deliberately glanced at Wu Tao secretly, and then deliberately let him find out. This glance almost made Wu Tao take off.
At this moment, the box door opened and Yang Chen walked in.
"Sorry everyone, there is a traffic jam on the road, so I'm late." Yang Chen said with a smile.
Wu Tao immediately said: "Yang Chen, I'm sorry, you're here. We thought you didn't even come to the academy just to make a few dozen dollars."
Chen Yuwan: "Did you know that Wang Lixin and her boyfriend had a quarrel and broke up just because you were late?"
Li Liu: "No, you should inform us if you are stuck in traffic. If you don't say a word, we all think you won't come."
Yang Chen smiled and replied: "I'm sorry, everyone, there was a traffic jam on the road, and my mobile phone was out of battery, so I didn't tell everyone."
When the girls saw that Yang Chen was still as handsome as when he was in school, but also had the charm of a mature man, all of them started to think carefully.
Let’s not talk about whether we can get married or not. Being able to fall in love with such a handsome and stylish man is the most unforgettable memory in my life.
Xia Yurou quickly said: "Oh, okay, okay, Yang Chen said I'm sorry many times when he came in, it's almost done. Yang Chen, come here quickly, sit here."
After saying that, Xia Yurou asked Li Liu to move his position.
At this time, Xu Xiaowan hurriedly said: "Come and sit over here, I have an empty seat."
In fact, there is no empty seat next to Xu Xiaowan.
On her left is Chen Liyun and on her right is Wang Lixin.
But she got up and pulled a chair over, forcing a seat between her and Wang Lixin.
Good guy, everyone was stunned by her operation.
But soon everyone understood what she meant. She clearly wanted to pursue Yang Chen.
Yang Chen can only stay here for about half an hour, and he will have to meet with Xue Yinong later.
It doesn't matter where you sit, the most important thing is to start eating as soon as possible.
Yang Chen walked over and said with a smile: "Squad leader, thank you."
Xu Xiaowan smiled slightly and said: "You're welcome. Sit down quickly. I'm hungry. Let's eat quickly."
The squad leader has spoken, and everyone has nothing to say.
But Wang Lixin felt unhappy and asked: "Why did you have the heart to throw me on the bridge last time?"
"Is today a class reunion, or are we settling old scores?" Yang Chen replied unceremoniously.
"Shouldn't you give me an explanation?" Wang Lixin asked unreasonably.
"What explanation should I give you? The recording has been listened to by everyone. Do you want to ask everyone what explanation I need to give you?" Yang Chen replied with a straight face.
Wang Lixin still wanted to speak, but Wu Tao said first: "Yang Chen, don't be angry. This girl has been wronged and she just wants to vent. You said you were late, do you have to express it?"
"Huh? How do you express it?" Yang Chen asked.
Wu Tao quickly replied: "I have contracted this meal, and you don't need to pay for it. But you have to express your apology to everyone and open a few bottles of wine for everyone. We will go to sing later, so I won't drink any liquor. Let's just
Open two bottles of red wine. Both boys and girls can drink some. It will add to the fun without getting drunk. Do you think it’s okay?”
Those guys who were just here for a meal responded immediately.
"Yes, yes, Brother Tao is right. Yang Chen, you have to show your sincerity in apologizing."
"When we are all classmates, even if we don't speak, you should still express your feelings. Right?"
"I heard that you can earn more than 1,000 a day by driving an online ride-hailing service. You don't have enough money to drive two bottles of red wine, right?"
……
Xia Yurou quickly said: "If you want to drink, just buy it yourself. What are you doing?"
Not to be outdone, Xu Xiaowan quickly said: "We don't drink. If you want to drink, just buy it yourself."
The boys are all convinced, why do they rush to defend him when they talk about Yang Chen?
Could it be that both of them have fallen in love with him?
Yang Chen is now a shareholder of Baoqing Hotel, so buying two bottles of wine is not a big deal, just take care of the hotel business.
Just as he was about to speak, two waiters opened the door and came in.
They were holding two bottles of red wine in their hands, which turned out to be the Rolls-Royce of red wines, and a bottle of Romanee-Conti worth more than one million yuan.
