After breakfast, Hong Yu and Liu Qianqian were planning to go out to enjoy the scenic spots and historic sites in Yanjing.
Stop by the famous Wangfujing and try the authentic Yanjing cuisine.
Just when Hong Yu started the car, his cell phone suddenly rang.
He picked up the phone and saw that it was Zhong Wushuang calling.
Could it be that this girl called so early because of Ziyu's matter?
Hong Yu muttered and picked up the phone.
"Mr. Hong, good morning."
"Let's be honest, what's going on?"
"Are you free at noon today? My dad is hosting a banquet at home. I want to thank you for your life-saving grace. By the way, I want to tell you about Ziyu."
Oh, it really is about Ziyu.
"Okay, I'll be there on time at noon."
After that, Hong Yu hung up the phone.
"Xiaoyu, whose phone number is it?" Liu Qianqian, who was sitting in the passenger seat, asked curiously.
"Oh, your old classmate." Hong Yu said.
"Wushuang?" Liu Qianqian frowned, "What did she ask you to do?"
Hong Yu didn't go into too much detail and simply said: "Her father, in order to thank me for saving my life, plans to treat me to a meal at noon."
"Oh, then I'll go have a meal with you." Liu Qianqian said.
"That's not good." Hong Yu didn't know whether Zhong Xiaotian had brought the purple jade for him. If it didn't come, he would definitely fall out with the Zhong family later, and he didn't want Liu Qianqian to be caught in the middle.
"What's wrong with this? Wushuang and I are the best classmates. She won't not welcome me."
Liu Qianqian said: "Besides, Uncle Zhong and Zhong Weiwei have recovered from their illness, so I really should visit them. After all, the Zhong family took good care of me when I was in college."
"That's okay." Hong Yu reluctantly agreed.
It doesn't work if he doesn't agree. The relationship between Liu Qianqian and the Zhong family is not normal, so there is no need for his consent to go for a meal.
The reason why she asked Hong Yu to take her there was just to give Hong Yu face.
…
at the same time,
Zhong Wushuang on the other end of the phone saw that Hong Yu hung up the phone so quickly, and the tone of his words just now was so cold, and his heart felt like a knife.
"Wushuang, will Mr. Hong come to the banquet at noon?" Zhong Xiaotian asked.
He rushed back to Yanjing last night.
"He said he would be there on time."
Zhong Wushuang said in a low mood: "Dad, can't you call the Thirteenth Master again and ask him to plead with the ancestor and give some purple jade to Mr. Hong?"
"Why!"
Zhong Xiaotian let out a long sigh and said helplessly: "How come I didn't request it? But the ancestor didn't compromise at all."
"Then when Mr. Hong comes over at noon, how should we explain to him?" Zhong Wushuang said ashamedly.
"I can only tell the truth." Zhong Xiaotian said: "If Mr. Hong wants any compensation, I promise to do my best to satisfy him."
"Dad, Mr. Hong doesn't want the tens of billions check you asked me to send yesterday, let alone any other compensation. He only wants Ziyu." Zhong Wushuang felt extremely uncomfortable.
She knew very well that if the Zhong family could not get Ziyu, their relationship with Hong Yu would be completely broken.
Zhong Xiaotian also had a headache. He didn't know how to explain it to Hong Yu at noon so that Hong Yu could accept it better.
…
Since they were going to Zhong's house for a banquet at noon, Hong Yu and Liu Qianqian didn't go far. They walked around several scenic spots in the surrounding area. After seeing that the time was almost up, they drove to Zhong's house.
The car stopped in front of the gate of Zhong's house, and Hong Yu and Liu Qianqian got out of the car one after another.
"Mr. Hong, Miss Liu, you are finally here, please come in quickly."
At the door, Captain Wang, who had been arranged to greet Hong Yu at the door early, saw the two people getting out of the car and approaching, and immediately trotted over.
Speaking of which, Captain Wang would also like to thank Hong Yu.
If Hong Yu hadn't instigated him to rebel, let him act as an internal coordinator and provide information.
This time Zhong Xiaotian cleaned up the house, and he could not escape death.
"Captain Wang, we meet again." Hong Yu looked at Captain Wang and smiled.
"Thank you for this, Mr. Hong. If you didn't ask me to be your internal agent, I'm afraid that like most of the people who took refuge in the Second Master, I would have been killed by the Second Master's gun." Captain Wang bowed deeply to Hong Yu.
"Get up, this is your own creation." Hong Yu said.
"Yes, Mr. Hong." Captain Wang stood up straight.
Then, he made an invitation gesture, "Mr. Hong, I am waiting for you in the living room. Please come with me."
Under the leadership of Captain Wang, Hong Yu and Liu Qianqian walked into Zhong's house, bypassed several corridors, and came to the courtyard of the reception hall.
"Mr. Hong is here."
Captain Wang suddenly shouted loudly.
After a while, several figures walked out of the hall.
It was Zhong Xiaotian, Zhong Wei, and Zhong Wushuang.
"Uncle Zhong, Zhong Weiwei, congratulations on your recovery." Liu Qianqian immediately stepped forward and said sweetly.
"Thank you very much, Sissi, for caring about us two. I heard Wu Shuang say that it is all your credit for being able to invite Mr. Hong to treat us two this time." Zhong Xiaotian said.
Liu Qianqian smiled and said: "This is what we should do, otherwise I would be disgraced by Uncle Zhong's four years of care for me."
"Haha, Sissi, you are still the same as before, your mouth is so sweet."
After Zhong Xiaotian praised him, his eyes fell on Hong Yu and said solemnly:
"Mr. Hong, I've been waiting for you for a long time. Please come in."
Hong Yu just nodded and walked straight into the living room without saying anything.
The dining table in the living room was filled with wine and food, all delicious and delicious.
"Mr. Hong, please sit down quickly. I heard from Wushuang that you and Qianqian are both from Jiangnan. I specially asked famous Jiangnan chefs to cook the Jiangnan food on this table. I hope you like it," Zhong Xiaotian said.
After sitting down, Hong Yu said: "Whether I like it or not depends on my mood today. I hope Uncle Zhong won't make me feel bad."
There is something in the words, how could Zhong Xiaotian not hear it?
He smiled bitterly and didn't dare to answer.
Liu Qianqian stood nearby, always feeling that something was wrong with her anger, but she couldn't explain what was wrong.
At this time, Zhong Wei suddenly said: "Wushuang, go to the wine cellar and bring the daughter's red that dad has collected for many years and let Mr. Hong have a taste."
"Oh, okay." Zhong Wushuang didn't know that Zhong Wei wanted to send her away, so he turned and left the living room.
"Qian Qian, please do me a favor and go with Wu Shuang. The wine is a bit heavy and I'm afraid she can't hold it alone." Zhong Wei wanted to send Liu Qian Qian away again.
Liu Qianqian was equally confused and nodded: "Okay, Zhong Weiwei."
After saying that, she quickly chased Zhong Wushuang's back.
Hong Yu knew that Zhong Wei was deliberately sending away the two women.
Who treats guests and doesn’t prepare wine in advance?
However, he didn't point it out.
Because, he vaguely guessed the result, it would be better if the two women were no longer around.
At the moment, Hong Yu didn't bother to talk in circles and said directly: "Master Zhong, we won't tell secrets. Go to your old house of the Zhong family and get the purple jade?"
"Mr. Hong, we'll talk about Ziyu later. I'll toast you first and thank you..."
Zhong Xiaotian just picked up the wine bottle and was about to pour Hong Yu a drink when he was blocked by Hong Yu.
"Uncle Zhong, let's stop drinking. Let's talk about Ziyu first."
Zhong Xiaotian smiled bitterly and was embarrassed to speak.
Seeing his father in trouble, Zhong Wei stepped forward and said, "Mr. Hong, I'm sorry, I don't have the purple jade you want."
"In order to express my apology and thank you for your life-saving grace, you can put forward any conditions other than Ziyu, and our Zhong family will do our best to handle it for you."
It seems that my feeling is correct, Hong Yu sneered: "But I just want purple jade?"
Zhong Wei was speechless, "Then I can only say sorry."
Zhong Xiaotian said: "Mr. Hong, please don't embarrass me. I really can't do anything about this purple jade. I went to the Zhong family's old house last night and asked my ancestor of the Zhong family to give the purple jade to my husband as a medical fee.
But after I talked for a long time, I have dried up my saliva. My ancestor of the Zhong family did not agree, so I have nothing to do. I hope you will understand, Mr. Hong."
As he spoke, he took out the portfolio he had prepared and handed it to Hong Yu, "Here are 10 billion, plus the equity of a listed company owned by my Zhong family in Jiangzhou. I will give it to my husband today as compensation for my loss."
It’s my fault that I failed to ask for Ziyu from my husband.”
