As soon as Xu Shixun saw the man who had entered the bathroom before, he immediately greeted him with a smile.
Mr. Jiao was a middle-aged man. Hearing this, he looked up at him. His eyes were full of confusion at first, but then he seemed to remember who the other person was.
"Mr. Xu?" Mr. Jiao asked doubtfully.
"It's me, it's me. I didn't expect you, Mr. Jiao, to be here too. I..."
Although Xu Shixun was very enthusiastic, it didn't take long for him to come back first.
"Mr. Xu..."
Shangguan Yun came to him immediately and wanted to continue the previous topic, but Xu Shixun had no interest in chatting anymore.
All his thoughts were now focused on Mr. Jiao, whom he had just met.
Mr. Jiao is one of the CEOs of a state-owned enterprise in Pujiang. If Xu Shixun wants to participate in the development of the Huangjiacun land, one of the major connections he can make is that he has met Mr. Jiao twice.
However, the two times I met Mr. Jiao were at dinner parties organized by others, and he only participated as a minor role. Although I had met Mr. Jiao, we only had a superficial acquaintance with him. I don’t know if they took him seriously.
After the encounter just now, Xu Shixun was quite pleased that Mr. Jiao had an impression of him and finally remembered him.
"Does Mr. Yun have any wine?" Xu Shixun suddenly asked, leaving Shangguan Yun stunned.
Today is my daughter’s birthday party, and we are preparing lunch, so we have prepared white wine and red wine.
"Yes, red wine or white wine? Mr. Xu would like to drink some?" Shangguan Yun replied.
Xu Shixun tried hard to recall the experience of meeting Mr. Jiao twice. He remembered that Mr. Jiao drank more moderately and drank red wine both times, so he said:
"Give me a bottle of wine."
"Okay~"
Shangguan Yun took Xu Shixun to the table and found a bottle of red wine.
"Mr. Yun, let me lend you a bottle of red wine." Xu Shixun said.
Shangguan Yun looked very unhappy when he heard this.
"What's the point? You can come to my daughter's birthday party. I'm so happy that it's too late. How can I borrow a bottle of red wine?"
The two were polite, and Xu Shixun asked the staff next to him to open the bottle of red wine and find a wine glass.
Shangguan Yun didn't understand what Xu Shixun was trying to do, and thought he wanted to drink, so he planned to accompany him.
But Xu Shixun said: "Mr. Yun, wait a minute. If you want to drink, I will come with you later. But now I have to leave for a while. I just met a friend who was eating next door. I'll go hang around."
Only then did Shangguan Yun realize that he had met a friend.
But it seems that most of the friends I meet are stronger friends.
Xu Shixun was about to go out with the wine bottle and glass in hand. His wife spotted him halfway and asked what was going on.
Xu Shixun whispered: "I met a big shot and I'm having dinner next door. I'll go have a toast and I'll be back soon."
When Xu Shixun's wife heard this, she didn't ask any more questions. She just told him to drink less and not drink too hard.
"I know, I'm going first."
Xu Shixun went out and walked a few steps to the door of the next hall.
He didn't go in directly, but stood at the door waiting, looking a little stupid.
The children in the birthday banquet hall went to the bathroom together. When they passed by him, they all raised their heads and looked at him curiously.
It's like a group of little ducks crossing the border, watching and quacking as they walk.
Xu Shixun smiled at these children.
One of them immediately responded with a big smile.
Xu Shixun knew this kid, Tan Xier who had just made a splash at the birthday party!
Then, he heard the child Tan Xier whisper to another child: "It's Xiao Xuzi's father. He has wine in his hand. Did he sneak out to drink?"
The other child lowered his voice so that it was not as loud as the Tan Xier child.
Xu Shixun only heard a few words.
"Why is he like this", "Drunk", "Disgusting".
Xu Shixun didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and watched the children go away.
He continued to wait outside. Fortunately, after a while, the door opened and a boy came out. Seeing him standing at the door, he was stunned and confused.
Xu Shixun smiled and said: "Hello, is Mr. Jiao Ren Yun Jiao in there? I am his friend, can you tell him for me?"
Hearing this, the boy looked at him carefully. Maybe he felt that he didn't look like a bad person, so he said, "Okay, wait a minute."
He re-entered the room and walked out with Mr. Jiao after a while.
"Uncle, he is looking for you and says he is your friend." The boy said.
When Mr. Jiao saw that it was Xu Shixun whom he had just met, he smiled reluctantly, and then said to the boy: "Commander, just go to the bathroom."
"Oh~"
Dashuai Jiao looked at them suspiciously for a few times before reluctantly leaving.
If his uncle didn't send him away, he really wanted to stay and see what they were talking about.
Xu Shixun also smiled at him, thinking that he was Mr. Jiao's nephew.
He didn't know much about Mr. Jiao's background, but he probably knew that he had a brother who was a high-ranking official in the city. The person who told him this didn't say much, it was vague and left people thinking.
It may be that the other party doesn't know either.
But one thing Xu Shixun can be sure of is that Mr. Jiao is extremely powerful and cannot be compared to him, so he is the right person to look for.
Xu Shixun originally wanted to go in and toast to Mr. Jiao and others, but Mr. Jiao didn't give him the chance at all and blocked his thoughts with just one sentence.
Just kidding, how could we let him in? Today is their family dinner, not an ordinary dinner.
Otherwise, let him come in and he will come in.
The two of them stood outside chatting for a while. Mr. Jiao was just thinking about how to prevaricate and send Xu Shixun away when he suddenly heard his nephew's voice coming from the bathroom.
"Hahahahahaha——"
He looked over, but he turned a corner and couldn't see what was going on over there.
Isn’t the Marshal crazy? What are you laughing at?!
"Hahahaha - Xi'er!!! - I'm your handsome brother - you don't recognize me? Oh my God!!! How are you doing with the Tan Kou I taught you??? Yes
Well, you finally remembered!!!"
Immediately afterwards, Jiao Dashuai's brother-in-law and Xu Shixun heard the laughter of another child.
"hiahiahia~~humhemhaxi~~see if I'm awesome?"
Did his nephew meet a friend?
Marshal Jiao appeared, holding a little girl in his hand and running back in a hurry.
Another girl chased her out and said, "Commander, where are you taking Xi'er?"
Dashuai Jiao said: "I'll take her to meet my grandparents. Xiaomi, you can come too."
Xiaomi said: "I'm not going."
Marshal Jiao took Xi'er back to the restaurant. His uncle asked, "Marshuai, have you met your friend?"
Dashuai Jiao nodded and said: "Uncle, this is Xi'er. I told you, her surname is Tan~my good friend."
Jiao Renyun smiled and said: "So this is Xi'er."
Xu Shixun on the side also said in his heart, isn’t this kid Tan Xier?! He actually knows the Jiao family!
He watched helplessly as Jiao Dashuai took Xi'er's hand into the room. Jiao Renyun on the side took the opportunity to say: "My nephew's friend is here. I will go in first to welcome him. Mr. Xu, we can talk again when we have a chance."
Saying that, without waiting for Xu Shixun to say anything, he quickly opened the door and returned to the room, leaving Xu Shixun disappointed.
He looked back and saw the little girl named Xiaomi, and said a little embarrassedly: "Do you want to go in?"
Xiaomi shook his head: "I'm not going in, I'm going to tell Sister Jin'er that Marshal Jiao abducted Xi'er!"
After saying that, she ran away.
Xu Shixun picked up the red wine in his hand, looked at it, and opened the bottle, but the wine was still full. If he just went back like this, and Shangguan Yun asked, he said that he didn't get any toast at all, wouldn't that be a loss of face?
Thinking of this, Xu Shixun walked aside, poured the red wine from the red wine bottle into the wine glass, and then poured out the wine from the wine glass. In this way, he poured out more than half of the bottle of red wine before going back.
