After calming down for a moment, Hong Yingxue raised her face arrogantly and snorted: "Sorry! I've already made an appointment to have dinner with someone at noon."
"It's okay, it's okay!" Seeing this, Hong Qiangwu quickly came over with a smile, nodded to Lin Mike and said: "Yingxue said that I made an appointment with a friend. This does not prevent you from having lunch with Yingxue."
Having said this, he lightly patted Hong Yingxue's arm with his hand: "Yingxue, you and Mike go to have lunch together! I can go alone at the Grand Hyatt Hotel."
"Dad, Tian Xiaohai said that he must take me with him. You suddenly said that you won't let me go. Isn't this a little bad? Besides, it's your treat at noon today. One more person and one less person. You have the initiative.
As for you, you might as well take Mike Lin with you! This will not only be convenient for you, but also convenient for Mike Lin and me, and it can also save some money." Hong Yingxue added intentionally.
She didn't like the man with gold-rimmed glasses, Mike Lin, from the bottom of her heart. It was best to make Mike Lin mistakenly think that she had a boyfriend, so as to scare him away.
"This..." A look of embarrassment flashed across Hong Qiangwu's face.
However, Mike Lin smiled cheerfully and nodded: "Okay! Yingxue's idea is good. I think it's more interesting to eat when there are more people! Uncle Hong, if you don't mind, I will cook this lunch today."
Please!”
Hong Qiangwu smiled sheepishly and shook his head: "Mike, you work in the provincial capital. It's rare for you to come back, so let me invite you!"
Mike Lin nodded with a sense of superiority and said: "Uncle Hong, let me do it! After all, my income is higher than yours, and my grandfather's traditional Chinese medicine clinic gave me another ten points of shares this year. All income
The total is close to two million a year. In a small county like ours, we really can’t finish the food! If you don’t help me spend a little, I won’t feel at ease yet!”
"That won't work, let me invite you! After all, this is your first time going out to eat with us." Hong Qiangwu was more concerned about face. He smiled and puffed up his chest and said: "I can't say how rich your uncle is.
, but I can still afford to treat you to a meal."
"Okay! If I have time another day, I'll invite Uncle Hong and Yingxue back!" Mike Lin said with a smile.
"That's right! This is what we call what comes and goes! Haha!" Hong Qiangwu smiled and patted Mike Lin on the shoulder.
The two were talking and laughing, while Hong Yingxue on the side looked gloomy and was absentmindedly playing with her phone.
At this time, Tian Xiaohai was very busy at the Grand Hyatt Hotel.
He has already ordered a meal.
According to his original plan, he would open a private room with Mr. Wen alone. After all, Mr. Wen was his current target. This was the top priority and he had to spend most of his energy on this rich man.
Deputy County Magistrate Qin, Mayor Bai, Gao Yue, Su Nian and others were in another private room. Tian Xiaohai just showed his face during the banquet and asked Su Nian to receive them on his behalf.
Naturally, there were battlefield workers and Hong Mazi and others in the hall.
Bald Bei, Axiu Amei, Jin Ruyu, as well as the village party secretary, Lao Liang and several other core figures were arranged at a relatively front position in the hall.
But plans couldn't keep up with the changes. Gao Yue had something to do and couldn't come. Hong Yingxue's father got in on Mr. Wen's side.
Fortunately, Deputy County Magistrate Qin, Mayor Bai, Director Niu and others arrived early.
Tian Xiaohai had already greeted them and had a few drinks. After making proper arrangements, he ran to Wen Xiangbei to deal with them.
Wen Xiangbei and Tian Xiaohai took their seats in a small private room. They talked and laughed, quietly waiting for Hong Qiangwu's arrival.
The two of them were talking about martial arts and were getting excited.
Tian Xiaohai's cell phone rang, it was Hong Yingxue calling.
"Tian Xiaohai, which box are you in now? My dad and I have already arrived at the door of the hotel."
"Just wait for me for two minutes, I'll be out soon."
After hanging up the phone, Tian Xiaohai quickly ran outside the box and bumped into Hong Qiangwu and others at the door of the hall.
"Uncle Hong, hello!"
Tian Xiaohai nodded politely to Hong Qiangwu. When he saw that there was one more person, he couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"Hmph! Boy, let me introduce you. This is Yingxue's childhood friend and the son of my comrade-in-arms. They have known each other since they were very young. His name is Mike Lin..." Hong Qiangwu was about to force himself on Tian Xiaohai
Let’s introduce it.
Unexpectedly, before he could finish speaking, Mike Lin on the side took over the conversation with a rather superior smile: "Uncle Hong, let me introduce myself! My name is Mike Lin, I have a doctorate in the United States, and I am currently the number one doctor in the provincial capital.
The chief surgeon of the People's Hospital and the grandson of Mr. Lin, a well-known traditional Chinese medicine doctor in the provincial capital..."
"Okay, we're just here to have a meal. There's no need to make it look like a speech!" Hong Yingxue interrupted impatiently.
"Okay, stop talking, stop talking!" Mike Lin looked at Tian Xiaohai and saw that the clothes he was wearing looked like street stall goods worth dozens of dollars, so he couldn't help but sneered: "Brother, I guess you
You must have done a lot of good things in your previous life! To think that you can be invited to dinner by a big shot like Uncle Hong. Haha!"
"Yes! I must have done something good in my previous life!" Tian Xiaohai also followed this guy's intention and replied with a smile: "Uncle Hong is able to treat me, a small farmer, to dinner, which really flatters me. Thank you Uncle Hong for your kindness."
I have good intentions. I hope I can become good friends with Uncle Hong in the future."
Tian Xiaohai said this from the bottom of his heart.
He really wanted to resolve the conflict with Hong Yingxue's father, and it would be best if he could become friends.
"Hmph! Tian Xiaohai is just fine. Are you worthy of being friends with me, Hong Qiangwu? You should know why I'm inviting you to dinner." Hong Qiangwu glared at Tian Xiaohai with a gloomy expression.
He glanced at it and said coldly: "What kind of private room did you book? Let me go and take a look first."
"I'm sorry, Uncle Hong, I didn't know before that you brought someone here. The private room you booked is a bit small. Otherwise, I'll book a larger private room again!" Tian Xiaohai said a little guiltily.
He planned to treat this meal to himself, so he changed his mind temporarily and decided to change to a larger box. After all, he had an unpleasant incident with Hong Yingxue's father, which made him so unhappy.
"Humph! I don't need you to teach me." Hong Qiangwu glared at Tian Xiaohai angrily and said, "Don't pretend to be superior in front of me. I know very well what kind of thing you are. No matter how you pretend to be a gangster, you are still a gangster.
.Let’s go in! I chose the box again.”
After saying that, he waved to Mike Lin behind him, his attitude instantly changed to a gentle smile and said: "Mike, come here, you come with me to choose a private room! You are more knowledgeable and have more experience in this area."
Hong Qiangwu strode into the hall.
"Yes!" Mike Lin responded and prepared to follow.
He probably also figured out that it must be Tian Xiaohai who was pestering the director's daughter. The director was dissatisfied and deliberately brought him, a doctor studying in the United States, to slap this kid in the face.
Thinking of this, Lin Mike specially came to Tian Xiaohai and said with a provocative look: "Young man, there is an old saying in our county, the size of your feet means the size of shoes you wear. Yingxue, you are not worthy, so you should quit voluntarily."
!Maybe you can still leave a good impression, but if I really step on you and quit the game, the scene will not be so good. In terms of money, you can't compare to me, in terms of love, Yingxue and I are childhood friends. And you, more like
It’s the life of a bachelor. Haha!”
"Brother, you are so young and you look a little too old!" Tian Xiaohai sneered angrily.
"Why are you saying I'm old?" Lin Mike's face sank slightly, with a look of displeasure flashing across his face.
"No, he is very old." Tian Xiaohai turned to Hong Yingxue with some curiosity and said: "Yingxue, you should be about the same age as me! How could you be the same child as an uncle?"
"Hmph!" Hong Yingxue smiled bitterly and said coldly: "He is eight years older than me. I don't know how my dad defines being young."
A trace of paleness flashed across Mike Lin's face. Compared with Tian Xiaohai's young and handsome appearance, this was his pain point.
After a few seconds of silence, he still showed a very gentlemanly attitude, leaned towards Hong Yingxue's ear, and whispered: "Yingxue, only a mature man can provide you with strong protection in life, and he is more worthy of your love.
.I think this hairless boy might not even be able to support himself. You will understand my good intentions!"
After saying that, he quickly walked into the hotel lobby.
