My three-day uncle's life was not too easy. He either went to visit relatives or relatives came to his home.
Qin Xiaobao tried hard to smile, tried hard to remember their names, and tried hard to respond.
The relatives were so enthusiastic that he was like a panda, being dragged to ask questions and take photos wherever he went. Dad Wang even apologized a little, feeling that he had burdened his son-in-law.
In this regard, Qin Xiaobao showed a nonchalant attitude, but he could not let his father-in-law have any ideas.
Relatives definitely have to move around each other. Although he is a little uncomfortable with it, it still feels good.
After staying in Changchun for five days, the couple returned to the magical city with a lot of bags.
When they saw the familiar word "囍" on the door, they both laughed.
Before departure, the house in the city was not decorated. It must have been done by Yaya and the company. In addition, there were wedding photos of the two of them on the coffee table and in the bedroom.
"Ouch, I'm exhausted." Wang Bingbing put her luggage aside temporarily and lay on the sofa not wanting to move.
Yaya is not here, she should go to work.
Qin Xiaobao went into the kitchen and poured her a glass of water: "We have three days, you can rest slowly, don't be in a hurry."
Wang Bingbing shook her hand and said she didn't want to drink: "Hey, getting married is really tiring. Fortunately, it's over. I feel like all the bones in my body are falling apart. I probably lost five pounds."
"Didn't the scale weigh just two pounds last night?" Qin Xiaobao teased.
"Shh!" Wang Bingbing cutely put her index finger between her lips: "Can we not go on a honeymoon? Traveling is also very tiring."
"The air tickets have been booked, don't waste money." Qin Xiaobao sat down next to her and turned on the TV.
Unexpectedly, news about their marriage was being broadcast inside. The female anchor's voice was very emotional, telling how the two met and fell in love, interspersed with many photos and videos.
What he said is reasonable and well-founded, but in the eyes of the person involved, it can only be said to be funny.
"Ha, when did we fall in love with West Lake?" Wang Bingbing had already sat up cross-legged, with a pillow in her arms: "Don't we officially start in Tianjin?"
"Do you want to call the TV station to clarify it?" Qin Xiaobao said with a smile.
Wang Bingbing actually thought about it seriously for ten seconds: "Forget it, I'm not sick."
After watching the mixed news, the two felt bored and changed the channel at will.
"It's amazing," Wang Bingbing drank water: "When I was in college, watching the actors on TV, I thought they were superior, but now, Lu Han is actually the best man at my wedding."
Qin Xiaobao shook his phone: "The best man called, hello."
"Director Qin, have you returned to the Magic City?"
"I just arrived, what's wrong?" Qin Xiaobao turned on the speakerphone: "I told you that we are watching the TV series you acted in."
"Which one?" Lu Han didn't respond.
"It's the one from the time travel game. It's quite interesting."
"Thank you." Lu Han was speechless. The drama had been aired a long time ago, so he probably watched the rerun.
But it's quite normal. Qin Xiaobao doesn't make TV series, so how can he care about this.
"Brother Xiaolu, you look so handsome in there." Wang Bingbing shouted from the side.
"...That's enough for you." Lu Han roared.
Qin Xiaobao was puzzled: "What's going on? We praise you. The ratings are good, right?"
"Please, that was last year's TV series."
"ah..."
The two looked at each other, a little embarrassed!
"The weather is good today, it's windy and sunny."
"Damn the weather, I need to ask you to do something." Lu Han explained his purpose.
It turns out that he has also begun to invest in industry. He bought a bar in Nanjing in 1912 and spent more than 60 million. It was handed over last year and has been renovated. It will have a trial opening tomorrow night. Lu Han invited many people from the industry
Celebrities went to help the platform.
When Qin Xiaobao was telling his story, he turned to look at his wife and asked with his mouth: "Do you want to go?"
Wang Bingbing tilted her head and considered for three seconds, then made an OK gesture.
"Tomorrow night, right?"
"Yes, if Director Qin has time, I can send a car to the Magic City to pick you up."
"Don't be so polite. You are my best man after all. If you are two days late, it won't work because you flew away and the time was just right." Qin Xiaobao is a grateful person: "You invited Brother Chao and Brother He."
"I have promised them a long time ago."
"Okay, Bingbing and I will go down together to avoid being photographed by reporters. If we go to a bar just after getting married, we will be scolded to death."
"It's agreed," Lu Han was very happy: "I'll tell Brother He."
Putting down the phone, Wang Bingbing lay on his shoulder: "We are old enough. We went to the bar as soon as we got married. Hahahaha, I'm a little excited just thinking about it."
"Just in time to help Brother Lu promote it and create a gimmick."
“Do I need a red envelope to open a new store?”
"That's not necessary. You reminded me that you have to order a flower basket. Just give Xiaoming a call to make arrangements."
"okay!"
Xiaoming then called the other party's agent and found out the time and place, and everything was arranged.
It's just that Chen He's plan was temporarily disrupted.
Before Lu Han called, several people discussed in private and asked whether to invite Qin Xiaobao.
Deng Chao felt that it was not appropriate to invite him to a bar to promote the marriage since he was just getting married.
Chen He thought it didn't matter, everyone was friends, and you didn't see anyone outside until you shouted.
After careful consideration, Lu Han decided to invite, but over there, Deng and Chen had already planned to drive to Nanjing at night.
Qin Xiaobao just got off the plane and didn't pack his luggage, so he definitely couldn't follow their rhythm.
After some discussion, we decided to go back tomorrow.
Anyway, the bar only opens in the evening, so there won’t be much to do if you go there too early.
By the way, Wang Bingbing and Qin Xiaobao's past news will not be informed in advance, but will be given as a surprise.
"You lie down and rest for a while. I'll take the clothes in first."
"Go ahead, the ones in the black box need to be washed."
"knew."
Life at home was still comfortable, and Qin Xiaobao did not dare to tell his wife that he would stay in the house in Magic City and sleep on the bed in Magic City more comfortably than in Changchun.
At my father-in-law's house, I always feel like a guest. I wonder if other sons-in-law feel the same way.
These words can only be buried in the heart, no one will say them, it is too rude and hurtful.
At noon the next day, Qin Xiaobao received a call from Brother Chao. He had already arrived at the community and was picking up Chen He and asking them to get ready.
We went to stay for one night. The two of them packed lightly and changed into slightly more fancy clothes early. After all, it was a bar.
"Hey, bridegroom and bride." Brother Chao drove a Land Rover and warmly welcomed the two of them in the car.
"Brother Chao, Brother He."
Chen He consciously sat in the passenger seat: "I won't disturb your newlywed life."
"Hey, we are an old married couple." Wang Bingbing put on her seat belt: "Aren't you going to take your wife with you?"
"It's too noisy, I don't like to go there, and it has a bit of a commercial atmosphere, so they are not suitable for each other." Brother Chao started the car and pointed the direction skillfully: "Have you eaten lunch? Do you want to deal with me on the road?"
"After eating, let's go directly."
"Okay, so what, let's report the itinerary to Director Qin. We will probably arrive in the evening. Let's go to the hotel first. Xiaolu probably won't have time to attend. There is a red carpet today. Let's finish our meal and go there around 8:30. As for whether we want to stay
You can stay as long as you like, but it’s best to stay for half an hour, a few minutes is a bit unreasonable.”
Qin Xiaobao nodded to express his understanding: "How many celebrities went there?"
"About a dozen, they are all his friends. You are the only director. It is not appropriate to invite others. It is not my hot pot restaurant. There are no restrictions." Chen He replied.
"Will Xiaotong go?" Wang Bingbing asked.
"Yes, they are about to get married, and it has been public for so long."
Brother Chao joined the chat: "Actually, I always thought that Xiaolu would come before you two. You two got married very quickly. The outside world is guessing whether it is a son-in-law's marriage."
"Of course not," Wang Bingbing shook her head quickly.
"Actually, it would be good to have a child earlier, but I am a little late," Brother Chao sighed: "You said that when the child goes to high school, I am already over fifty, and I want to beat him up, but I am not able to do it. Chen He is actually just right, husband and wife
They are both in their prime, unlike me, if I go home after working all day, sometimes I really don’t have the energy to make trouble with my children.”
"It's rare for me to have the same views as Brother Chao," Chen He said, half sideways: "After a family has children, it's really different.
Although you are very angry at times, it brings you more happiness. The children are jumping around you and calling mom and dad in a sweet voice. That feeling of happiness is stronger than anything else."
"That's right, that's right." Brother Chao echoed: "I'm not going to lie to you, my son called me daddy for the first time, and he burst into tears."
Qin Xiaobao thought it was nothing at first. He listened and turned to look at his wife. The two looked at each other and everything was clear.
After a four-hour journey, Brother Chao and Chen He drove alternately, but they were not too tired. They soon arrived in Nanjing and stayed in a hotel in Xinjiekou.
They each rested in their rooms for an hour or so, and when it got dark, they got together again.
Xiao Lu already knew of their arrival. As an investor, he would definitely be there to watch the opening of the bar with tens of millions of investments, so he made a special call to say sorry.
After knowing each other for so many years, these people naturally wouldn't care.
It's not convenient to go out to eat, so I ordered three dishes and one soup from the hotel's kitchen.
It was very fast and was delivered within 20 minutes.
The four of them sat together and enjoyed dinner.
"Hey, the salted duck here is pretty good, quite authentic." Brother Chao took a sip, and the corners of his mouth were dripping with oil.
Qin Xiaobao and Wang Bingbing frowned slightly at the same time. Neither of them like salted duck very much. It is salty and greasy. This is not a prejudice. Just like many people do not eat coriander or stinky tofu, it is completely a personal preference.
"Can I give you a leg?" Brother Chao was happy to share.
"No need, we can't get used to it."
"Hey, it's a waste of natural resources, so only the two of us can eat it." Chen He was very happy to have two less competitors.
"Do you need to drink a lot at night?" Qin Xiaobao has never participated in similar activities and doesn't know much about it.
Brother Chao wiped his mouth: "It all depends on you. It's inappropriate not to drink at all. It's okay to drink moderately. It's easy to get drunk easily."
"That's right, it's just like in Changchun, except there will be many ordinary customers coming in. Tonight is special, because we are here, and the consumption has increased a lot. The minimum consumption of the booths is 10,000, and you have to queue up."
"The cost in a bar is really high, 10,000 yuan is two or three months' salary for an ordinary person."
"Who says it's not the case, but there are people consuming it, and with the celebrity effect, I estimate that the turnover will be more than two to three million in one night."
"Tsk!" Qin Xiaobao couldn't help but sigh.
He knows nothing about investing. He spent 60 million to build a bar. He probably doesn’t know how to start a bar. He doesn’t understand anything. He doesn’t know why he was deceived.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with not getting involved or being greedy about things you don’t understand.
After eating and drinking until eight o'clock, the four of them tidied up a little and set off for the bar. They arrived quickly, less than two kilometers away.
After contacting Lu Han, two young men in suits and leather shoes soon came to the car.
"Hello, distinguished guests, you may have to wait a moment. There are a lot of people outside now. Many fans came here specially just to take pictures of celebrities. The security guards we have prepared are slightly insufficient. They are already being transferred from other places. There are also many more
Journalists, if you don't want to come forward, you can enter through the side door with me."
"This must have been arranged by Xiaolu," Chen He smiled: "We came here just to support him. It's not a shame. It's okay. You can wait."
The other three nodded unanimously.
"Okay, I'll go to the front to check on the situation. Please wait a moment."
After finishing speaking, another young man was left to accompany him.
Chen He couldn't help but took out a cigarette and handed one to the young man outside: "There are a lot of people, right?"
The young man was a little flattered: "Well, normally the bar only opens at eight o'clock. We opened an hour earlier, but people came to line up at six o'clock."
Chen He lit the fire for him: "Have you started drinking now?"
"Then I'm not sure. I'm in charge of order outside the venue today. In order to avoid affecting other people, the boss let people in first." The young man pointed to the intersection a hundred meters away. A string of English words could clearly be seen: Mr designer!
"Designer, quite interesting." Qin Xiaobao read.
"What do you mean?" Brother Chao's English has steadily not improved over the years.
"Designer, ideator." Qin Xiaobao said: "Hey, did your boss Lu ever say why you chose this name?"
The young man shook his head.
"Don't embarrass others," Chen He said with a smile: "Let me tell you, it was purely because Xiaolu saw that this word was cool and thought it was classy, so he chose it."
"So casual?" Qin Xiaobao was shocked.
"Otherwise, it's just a name. It doesn't matter if you run a good business or have a good business." As a successful businessman, Chen He has the right to say: "You haven't thought about investing in anything?"
The young man outside was quite sensible and felt that it was not something he should listen to. He took a few steps to the side and did not say anything about taking out his mobile phone and asking to take pictures. He must have been well trained.
"No, no, I don't know."
"Both of us are novices in investing, and the only thing we can think of is buying a house." Wang Bingbing said with a smile.
"Yes, the house still maintains its value, and I am fully capable of buying a villa to live in."
"No, if you have to clean more than a hundred square meters, you will be killed. Let's forget about the villa."
"A virtuous woman like you is rare."
After chatting for a while, the young man received the instruction: "Guys, you can come over."
