The seat next to Jiang Xinyu is Tong Tong's seat. Wu Jingrong's arrangement was also based on the ambiguous relationship between the two people.
After drinking for three rounds, Wang Xuelin stood up, holding the wine glass in both hands, and said: "Thank you, Deputy Station Manager Wu, for connecting Xinrui and I. Xuelin is clumsy and not good at words, so I can only express my gratitude with this glass of wine!"
"
As he spoke, he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, then flashed the bottom of the glass and said, "Everyone is welcome."
Everyone present raised their glasses, but Tong Tong did not move at all.
Mrs. Wu, who was sitting opposite, said, "Why don't you drink, Miss Tong?"
Tong Tong said: "Since we are giving a toast to two people, how can it be one person who is toasting?"
After hearing this, Wang Xinrui stood up and said apologetically: "I'm really sorry, I don't know how to drink... Otherwise, I'll drink tea instead of wine and toast to everyone."
"Replacing wine with tea? Isn't that just fooling people?" Tong Tong had no other intention and was just messing around.
Wang Xuelin said from the side: "I drank this glass of wine for Xinrui..."
"No! If you drink it instead, what's the point?" Tong Tong said loudly.
Wu Jingrong knew that Wang Xinrui really didn't know how to drink. If he drank this glass of wine, he probably wouldn't be able to sit still.
After thinking for a while, Wu Jingrong stood up and said with a smile: "Miss Tong, I drank this glass of wine for Xinrui, do you think it's okay?"
Tong Tong wanted to make a few points, but Jiang Xinyu quickly took over and said, "Deputy webmaster, Tong Tong is joking, you don't need to take it seriously."
"What's the point of drinking if you don't make a scene..." Tong Tong muttered to himself.
Wu Jingrong reached for the wine bottle, filled his glass with wine, and said with a smile: "We are having a family dinner. There are no outsiders here, so you don't have to worry about what you say."
Mrs. Wu said from the side: "Old Wu, you have drunk a lot, can your body bear it?"
Wu Jingrong picked up the wine glass and said, "Others don't know how my health is, but you still don't know?"
Mrs. Wu's face turned slightly red and she whispered: "What nonsense are you talking about in front of so many juniors!"
Wu Jingrong was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then laughed loudly and said: "The Chinese language is exquisite, and a very common sentence can often have multiple interpretations. What I mean by that is that since arriving in Yanjin, there has never been a student.
I feel very good after being sick, so don’t talk about one glass of wine, even if it’s eight out of ten, that’s fine!”
Mrs. Wu pretended to be angry: "The more you talk, the more aggressive you become. Drink less!"
Wu Jingrong waved his hand and said energetically: "I'm happy today. The more wine the better! Mr. Wang, Captain Jiang, everyone, I'll do it first as a courtesy!"
Wang Jingmin echoed: "Deputy Station Director Wu is right, come, let's all drink together!"
After drinking a round of wine, Jiang Xinyu took the wine bottle, filled the wine for Wu Jingrong, and said: "Deputy station director, you are in such good health, do you have any secrets of health care?"
Wu Jingrong looked around the crowd and said seriously: "Captain Jiang's words are on point. If you want to be in good health, health maintenance is very important! Chinese people have been talking about health maintenance for thousands of years. What do these two words mean?"
Tong Tong and Wang Xueqi were talking about something in a low voice. Wang Xuelin motioned for them to shut up, and then said: "Take this opportunity, let me ask the deputy webmaster to talk about it, and we will all learn more!"
Tong Tong's chat was interrupted. He rolled his eyes in dissatisfaction and mouthed to Wang Xueqi: "Flattery!"
This is how a banquet is, the host will always find topics to adjust the atmosphere, and Wu Jingrong is no exception. Seeing that everyone was very interested, he coughed twice and said: "Okay, let me just say a few words. What is health care? Maintenance, nourishment
, Self-cultivation. Because I don’t have enough self-cultivation, I have been reflecting on it recently..."
Wu Jingrong is eloquent and eloquent. It seems that he does have a lot of research on health preservation.
Jiang Xinyu didn't listen to a word, and was secretly thinking, since Wu Jingrong has never been sick, why did he go to Kohler Clinic?
Of course, the statement that I have never been sick is an exaggeration in itself. I think there are still minor illnesses like headache, brain fever, cold, and fever, but I just don’t have serious illness.
Jiang Xinyu was just curious, and he didn't think too much. There were so many things he was curious about, and it was impossible to check everything.
As the banquet came to an end, Mrs. Wu and Wu Jingrong looked at each other and said, "Mr. Wang, Mrs. Wang, in one month it will be the Spring Festival. Which month do you think is better for Xinrui and Xuelin's wedding?"
Wang Jingmin hesitated for a moment, thinking about how to answer.
Wang Xuelin hurriedly said: "Oh, Xinrui and I have discussed it and plan to find an opportunity to go to Guangzhou next year to meet her parents and then set the wedding date."
Mrs. Wu said oh, glanced at Wang Xinrui beside her, and said: "Xinrui, since we have already discussed it, why didn't you tell me in advance?"
Wang Xinrui explained: "Aunt, this matter was decided before we came here. We haven't had time to tell you yet."
Mrs. Wu smiled and said: "It seems that I, as an aunt, am too impatient! It's okay, as marriage is a major event and it is also appropriate to meet my parents."
Mrs. Wang said: "If you follow me, just bring Xinrui's parents over and get the wedding done earlier..."
Amidst the laughter and laughter, the time came to nine o'clock.
Wang Jingmin took out his pocket watch, took a look at it, and said to Wu Jingrong: "Deputy Station Chief Wu, it's getting late. I think this is the end of the day. Let's get together again when we have a chance!"
"Okay! There is no such thing as a feast that never ends, but the feast between our two families may not be able to stop in the future." Wu Jingrong said with a smile.
After having enough wine and food, we left happily.
After coming out of the hotel, Mrs. Wang got into the car and said to Wang Xueqi: "Er Bao, why don't Tong Tong get in the car?"
Wang Xueqi said: "Tong Tong has something to discuss with Captain Jiang, let's go first."
"It's so late at night, how can she get home soon?"
"Mom, don't worry, Captain Jiang will send her back."
"Oh... Erbao, drive slower, it's snowing."
"knew."
The car's headlights turned on and it drove toward Plum Blossom Lane amid the flying snowflakes.
Watching several cars leave one after another, Tong Tong said to Jiang Xinyu: "The weather is so cold, let's go have a cup of coffee?"
"It's too late. Let's wait another day. If anything happens, let me know in the car." Jiang Xinyu came to his car and was about to take out the car keys and open the door.
I accidentally looked down and saw a line of vague footprints in the snow. The footprints stopped near the car door and then extended towards the Wanguo Hotel.
Jiang Xinyu's heart moved, and the hand holding the keys turned into holding a cigarette. He lit a cigarette and observed the surrounding situation amid the smoke.
He knew very well that his car was parked on the outermost side. If he were a normal guest going to the hotel, walking like this would be equivalent to going in a circle.
