Chapter two hundred and eighty second restaurant meeting
"Where's Han Shuyun?" Jiaying and Lily were in the negotiation room. After negotiating preferential terms with the sales manager, they came out to Cao Mo to sign the car purchase contract. When they saw Han Shuyun missing, they asked in confusion.
"A man named Han Shaorong has captured him," Cao Mo said.
"Ah?" Jiaying was confused. She didn't know what happened in just a short while.
This matter couldn't be explained in a few words. Cao Mo pointed to the car purchase cooperation and said to Jiaying: "You sign the car purchase contract and insurance contract yourself. I will be with you today to take care of the transfer..."
It was also impossible to wait for the original new car to be shipped to China two or three months later before picking it up, so Jiaying designated the light blue minicooper in the showroom.
After the car purchase and insurance contracts are signed and the payment is made, the car will be transferred directly from the showroom to the workshop at the back. After an inspection and designated decoration items, the car can be picked up as soon as this afternoon.
After finishing the car purchase in half a day, Cao Mo and the others rushed to Yinguang Plaza at noon to have dinner with Yu Jing and Chen Chang, who were still working overtime at the company on weekends at the end of the year.
"I heard from Cheng Xi that you are very prosperous in Africa! What cars did you look at this morning?" Yu Jing has always had a close relationship with Cheng Xi. She and Chen Chang left the office and rushed to the lobby of the commercial building on the first floor to see
Cao Mo greeted him happily.
"I heard Cheng Xi said that you were picked on by someone. What's wrong? Do you regret it?" Cao Mo said with a smile.
"Tch, even if I regret it, I can't argue with Cheng Xi." Yu Jing joked.
"Why are you dragging me along? Is this guy so rare?" Cheng Xi grabbed Cao Mo's short hair, which was no longer than a finger, and said disgustedly, "Look at how short his hair is, does he look like a young man in society?
Fluffy..."
"In the weather in Africa, it's impossible to get by without shaving such a short hair - you see the kind of dreadlocks that are popular among African girls. Do you think they are happy with it? Isn't it because it's more breathable? Lily
They all grew their hair long after arriving in China." Cao Mo pulled Lily out as a shield.
"You are Cao Mo. I have often heard Chen Chang talk about you and Cheng Xi! I am Ding Xuerong, Chen Chang's boyfriend. I am the manager of the clothing and hat department of Yinguang Plaza..."
They were standing in the lobby on the ground floor of the shopping mall chatting when a young man in a suit came over and reached out to Cao Mo to say hello.
Yu Jing and Chen Chang are already complete urban beauties, and they have already started dating.
Chen Chang is a pragmatic person, and his boyfriend Ding Xuerong is a manager of the clothing and hat department of Yinguang Plaza. He is 27 or 28 years old and can be considered young and promising. He is well-spoken and even though he is somewhat philistine, he is not annoying.
Yu Jing's boyfriend Zhou Jie is on the way over. He is Yu Jing's high school and college classmate, and Cheng Xi's alumnus at Xinhai University. He is currently a graduate student at East China University of Finance and Economics.
After everyone waited in the hall for five or six minutes, they saw Zhou Jie walking over in a hurry, wearing a woolen coat and a navy blue cashmere scarf, which looked quite artistic.
Cao Mo was worried about this
Zhou Jie still has some impressions. When he first entered Xinhai University, Zhou Jie met Cheng Xi when he contacted Yu Jing, and even pursued Cheng Xi. After being rejected by Cheng Xi, he never heard from him again, but he didn't know what he is doing now.
Got together with Yu Jing.
Yu Jing and Chen Chang still live together, and Ding Xuerong and Zhou Jie are still very familiar with each other on the surface. They even raised their fists to bump into each other when they met, but in Cao Mo's eyes, Ding Xuerong must look down on being hooked on the cheek.
Yu Jing loves Zhou Jie, but Zhou Jie also looks down on Ding Xuerong, a philistine.
We were not pressed for time, so we took the escalator up to the fifth floor, walking around and chatting.
Ding Xuerong had obviously known from Chen Chang for a long time that Cao Mo was not only a native of Xinhai like him, but his family also ran a B&B. He was considered a wealthy family in Xinhai, and he was also quite polite to Cao Mo in his words.
However, Cao Mo could also see that Ding Xuerong's enthusiasm for him was more about pulling him into running against Zhou Jie, and even inadvertently jokingly mentioned that Zhou Jie had pursued Cheng Xi.
Cao Mo could not say he liked the two characters of Ding Xuerong and Zhou Jie, but he could not say he disliked them either.
After all, Tianyue's business is so big now. Counting the construction company, major subsidiaries, and holding companies, there are almost seven to eight thousand employees. He has many contacts with middle-level and above managers, and there are also two to three hundred people.
Among these people, Ding Xuerong and Zhou Jie are still the two most popular.
If Cao Mo wants to do it purely according to his inner preference, can Tianyue still have fun?
He couldn't kill the two generals Yang Deshan and Guo Donghu first?
Of course, it was also because he was accustomed to it. Cao Mo had no intention of responding to Ding Xuerong's warmth and going to compete with Zhou Jie with him, nor did he have any intention of taking the initiative to warm to Zhou Jie. It was just for an occasional meal, and he would never have the opportunity to meet Zhou Jie in the future.
What deep contact do they have.
"I'm treating you to this meal. Don't let anyone rush to pay for it later!" He took the escalator to the fifth floor and before he could choose a restaurant, Ding Xuerong took over the task of paying the bill.
Chen Chang was still as pragmatic and philistine as ever. He pinched his boyfriend Ding Xuerong and said angrily: "It's rare for Cao Mo to come back to China. He wants to treat Cheng Xi to a big dinner. We can just follow him and take advantage of it. You can pay whatever you want..."
Yu Jing still cheered without any motive: "Yes, yes, we rarely kill Cao Mo all year round, and he has to pay for this meal today."
"That's it, then how can we kill Cao Mo to satisfy our hatred?" Cheng Xi held his chin and pretended to think.
Cao Mo quickly covered up the Japanese food billboard behind him. He just heard Cheng Xi, Yu Jing and the others talking about this kaiseki restaurant. A customer at noon costs two thousand yuan, which is as expensive as slaughtering a pig.
"Hey, I haven't said anything about eating Xian Yin Japanese Food, why are you feeling guilty?" Cheng Xi smiled and hugged Cao Mo's arm, trying to pull him in the direction of Xian Yin Japanese Food.
"It's not that I don't want to invite you. I heard others say that you won't be full at all. What is kaiseki? Japan was too poor in the past. The hungry monks in the temples stuffed stones into their arms to relieve their hunger. This is called kaiseki.
The entertainment has developed to modern times, and combined with the tea ceremony, eating has also paid attention to artistic conception. There are more than a dozen dishes of hot and cold dishes, and you can't open your mouth wide at each bite. Where can you eat Japanese food at a buffet and enjoy it!" Cao Mo grabbed Cheng Xi and said,
Drag it to another Japanese self-service store in the opposite direction.
"Chengxi!"
Cao Mo was laughing and cuddling with Cheng Xi
As they huddled together, they heard an unhappy shout coming from the escalator. They turned around and saw Cheng Xi's mother, Yang Lifang, walking down the escalator with a frown on her face.
"Mom, why are you here?" Cheng Xi stuck out her tongue and quickly let go of Cao Mo's arm. Seeing that there were several people behind her mother, she asked, "You guys are coming to eat too? We won't worry about it.
You guys are talking about work, Yu Jing and I are about to go to the buffet!"
"I just heard your voice, didn't you say that you want to hide in fear? We happened to be there too. It's rare that Yu Jing, Chen Chang, Xiao Ding, and Xiao Zhou are all here, so let's come together!" Yang Lifang said without refusal, and started talking to a few of them.
A middle-aged bald man walked towards Xianyin Japanese Food.
"Haha, you are getting retribution for your words, aren't you? You won't have enough to eat later, and you'll be angry, so don't blame me!" Cao Mo said gloatingly, "I can treat you to another KFC meal at most."
"How about we just run away?" Cheng Xi whispered to Cao Mo guiltily, "The one with the bald head and a ring of hair around it is Yang Yongjun's father, Yang Jiguo. Do you remember that you used the club to beat Yang Yongjun into pieces?
What does it look like?"
"I said the way he looked at me was like a knife. He wouldn't call his son Yang Yongjun to get back the situation, would he?" No matter how cold Cao Mo was to Yang Lifang, he would still do it because of Cheng Zhengjie and Cheng Xi.
, would not be rude to her, and thought it would be a good idea to run away directly. Besides, he felt that Yang Lifang had an impure intention in inviting them to eat together?
"Why don't you leave?" Yang Lifang stood in front and turned around, urging them to follow them quickly.
Cheng Xi reluctantly grabbed Cao Mo and walked forward slowly.
Jiaying, however, was smart and pulled Lily, who was confused, away. She stepped onto the escalator without forgetting to say hello to Cao Mo and Cheng Xi: "I suddenly remembered that I had something to do, so I won't have dinner with you. We will have dinner with you in the afternoon.
You two can go directly to pick up the car, I don’t need you to accompany me!”
"These two big traitors." Cheng Xi shouted with anger and itching teeth.
"Is your mother not so scary?" Yu Jing saw something was wrong in the atmosphere and walked over and asked.
She and Chen Chang have both stayed at Cheng Xi's house several times. They think Cheng Xi's mother is very reasonable and considerate of Cheng Xi's friends and classmates. She didn't expect that Cheng Xi and Cao Mo would be together when they saw her mother.
It's like seeing a tiger.
"Cheng Xi's mother must not be happy for Cheng Xi to be with Cao Mo." Chen Chang said, thinking he knew the truth.
Of course, Ding Xuerong knew the identity of Cheng Xi's mother. He came over and asked with an inquiring look: "I heard that Shenjiang Business plans to acquire our Yinguang Plaza. Your mother, as well as Mr. Yang from Shenjiang, will talk to our Mr. Zhou today."
Are we going to eat together?"
"I don't know." Cheng Xi said, spreading his hands.
He walked slowly into the box with the long table in the middle. Yang Lifang and her group had already sat down at the innermost side. Cheng Xi asked Chen Chang, Yu Jing took Ding Xuerong, and Zhou Jie sat in first. She and Cao Mo sat on the outermost side, and they followed
Her mother said playfully: "Mom, Uncle Yang, Uncle Gu, Mr. Zhou, Cao Mo and I will sit outside and be responsible for serving you tea and water!"
"Do you want to call your dad to come to the rescue?" Cao Mo saw that Yang Lifang was treating him like nothing, and he didn't know how Yang Lifang would show him, so he stretched his head and asked Cheng Xi.
"Do you think my dad has the guts to help you save the day?" Cheng Xi glanced at Cao Mo with her beautiful eyes and said angrily.
