After finishing the glass of wine and sitting down, Wu Sheng glanced at the dishes on the table and asked, "Which dishes are made by Shishi?"

Liu Chen pouted: "You see which ones look delicious, they are made of poetry." ”

As soon as Wu Sheng heard that this was wrong, he defended his sister-in-law Li Rongfei and said: "Brother Liu, you can't say that, the dishes made by my sister-in-law are also very delicious, you see that plate of shredded beef with sauce, it tastes very good." ”

"Well, that's also made by Shishi, hehe. Li Rongfei's face was embarrassed, and what was even more embarrassing was Wu Sheng, who wanted to resolve the embarrassment, but became even more embarrassed, and the smile on his face froze.

Tang Xishi stood up for Li Rongfei and said: "Sister Xiaofei's first few dishes are very good, and I chatted with her later to affect her, and I think they actually taste very good." ”

Tang Xishi is quite protective of Li Rongfei, the "apprentice", and takes the responsibility on herself, Li Rongfei cast a grateful look at her.

The topic was a little dull and awkward, Qin Si picked up his wine glass and changed the topic and said, "Come on, come on, it's rare for all of us to get together for dinner today, let's go together." ”

Under the leadership of Qin Si, everyone toasted together, the sound of the collision of cups mixed with their laughter, and the atmosphere became active again.

As one of the hosts, Liu Chen took the initiative to invite: "Wu Sheng, Shishi, the first time you two come to the house as guests, don't be restrained, just treat it as if it is your own home, and you can come here often when you have time in the future." ”

Li Rongfei also agreed: "Yes, yes, I'll learn a few more dishes, you can help me taste them when the time comes, especially poetry, you can guide me more." ”

Tang Xishi saw that Liu Chen and Li Rongfei were so gracious, so he agreed: "Haha, okay, when Sister Xiaofei wants to learn to cook, you can call me at any time." ”

Wu Sheng also said politely to everyone: "Brother Liu, sister-in-law, and Sister Qin Si, you can go to my hometown to play, my hometown is full of wild goods, you can go and taste the real game." ”

Liu Chen glanced at everyone and said with a smile: "Wu Sheng, you only asked the three of us to go, what about Shishi, don't you ask Shishi to go together?" Oh, I understand, haha." ”

Wu Sheng blinked, pretending to be puzzled and asked, "Brother Liu, what do you understand?"

Liu Chen showed a wicked smile: "Well, ...... this?"

Li Rongfei patted Liu Chen's shoulder: "Oh, don't say it, you see Shishi's face is red." ”

Liu Chen turned to Tang Xishi's side again, pretending to be surprised: "Shishi, why are you blushing?"

Tang Xishi touched his red face and said embarrassedly: "I...... Do I have it? Maybe it's too hot at home. ”

"The house is air-conditioned. ”

"I ......"

Everyone immediately burst into laughter, and Liu Chen stopped the topic at the right time: "Haha, okay, okay, no kidding, you two, don't be shy, you're all adults, come on, let's have a drink." ”

Qin Si waved his hand to everyone and said, "Come, let's have a drink together." ”

Everyone stood up together, but there was a very tacit understanding that Liu Chen, Li Rongfei, and Qin Si coincidentally stretched out their wine glasses in front of Wu Sheng and Tang Xishi, as if this glass of wine was specially toasted for the two of them, and this, Wu Sheng and Tang Xishi didn't seem to have noticed yet.

The relationship between Wu Sheng and Tang Xishi has just shown some good signs, and they can't keep joking with them, Liu Chen saw Xiao Yu watching TV and picking up the rice in the bowl, so he asked, "Qin Si, how is Xiao Yu's admission?"

Qin Si ate the okra with dipping sauce, nodded and replied, "It's almost done, Xiaofei is helping to follow up on this matter, there should be no problem." ”

Li Rongfei added: "I have already helped Xiaoyu get his admission qualifications, and if nothing happens, you can go to Jiangxia Primary School to report at the beginning of the new semester in September." ”

"Oh, that's good. Liu Chen nodded and took a sip of wine with peace of mind.

Suddenly, Qin Si stood up, "Thanks to Xiao Fei, Jiang Xia's admission qualification is very difficult to get, so Xiao Fei, I give you a drink." Qin Si filled his wine glass with a glass of red wine and said gratefully from the bottom of his heart.

Li Rongfei hurriedly picked up the juice in return, but found that the juice was almost gone, so she picked up the red wine bottle from Qin Si's side and poured a glass into her cup, raised her glass and replied: "You're welcome, we are good girlfriends, Xiaoyu is also my godson, I should help with this." ”

Qin Si raised her glass and poured a full glass of red wine into her mouth, she felt a little ashamed of Li Rongfei's words, and felt that she was very sorry for her best friend, so she tried to use wine to irrigate that wild heart, closed her mouth tightly, and swallowed it.

Li Rongfei is not very good at drinking, but seeing Qin Si drinking so violently, she was embarrassed to only dip a drip, covered her chest and took a big sip, frowned after drinking, and tried to swallow the red wine in her mouth, the corners of her mouth overflowed, Liu Chen saw this, and hurriedly picked up a tissue to help wipe it, and complained on her mouth: "Why are you drinking so hard, Qin Si can drink, you can't, what are you comparing to her." ”

Seeing this scene, Qin Si put down the wine glass and wanted to comfort Li Rongfei for a few words, but finally swallowed it back, and her mind came to the idea that in the Yuejun Chinese restaurant in the provincial capital, she drank red wine fiercely, but Liu Chen was indifferent, her heart was full of loss, although she also knew that Liu Chen and Li Rongfei were a natural pair.

Qin Si felt that his inner activities at the moment were incompatible with the warm atmosphere of the scene, so he didn't think about it anymore, restrained his thoughts, drank and chatted with everyone, and told Xiao Yu a few words from time to time, trying to divert his attention and not focus all on the dining table, especially in the face of Liu Chen and Li Rongfei, even Wu Sheng and Tang Xishi are a couple, but she is like a superfluous single young woman.

Liu Chen's observation has always been meticulous, he is very sensitive to Qin Si's emotional changes, and he also knows the reason, but there is no way, he can't comfort Qin Si, it seems that only cruelty and indifference can make Qin Si's life and feelings more smooth in the future, the so-called long pain is better than short pain, after all, no one is wrong about feelings, if you really want to say that someone made a mistake, then this person must be God.

Liu Chen saw Qin Si drinking alone, so he pulled everyone to toast together, and used the atmosphere and emotions of the audience to force Qin Si's sadness alone, Qin Si, as the chairman of the group company, is also a person who wants to save face, taking care of the overall situation is what she is best at, Liu Chen doesn't have to worry about Qin Si doing anything out of line or even radical on this occasion, everything is going on as usual.

In the office of the Starlight Bar, Ji Linyuan was working, preparing some materials for tomorrow, she had already made an appointment with Su Zongming, and she would meet at the Starlight Bar tomorrow to discuss cooperation, and Su Zongming agreed without hesitation.

Ji Linyuan was sorting out the information about the cooperation with the jungle tribe bar, the original was on Qi Dongsi's side, and when she saw that it was still early, she planned to go to Qi Dongsi's side to get it.

made a call in advance, Qi Dongsi's mobile phone was not answered, and he called Xiaojun again, Xiaojun said that Qi Dongsi was out, if you want to get the information, you can go over and get it directly, so after hanging up the phone, Ji Linyuan decided to go to the jungle tribe, this information must be backed up today, otherwise if you meet Su Zongming tomorrow, you may fall into passivity.

Ji Linyuan put on a coat, left the office, said hello to Xiaoru and walked to the door. The Jungle Tribe Bar and the Starlight Bar are on the same Zhongxing Street, one at the east end of the street and the other at the west end of the street, which can be walked to.

Ji Linyuan walks alone on Zhongxing Street, she rarely walks around the street at night, usually driving, this may be one of the few times she walks on the bustling Zhongxing Street like an ordinary passerby, wearing a black dress and carrying a handbag.

At the door of a bathing shop at the intersection, the manager is giving the employees a hard slogan to improve their service awareness. On the other side of the restaurant, the business is deserted, but the security guards at the door cautiously look at the passers-by, which is a little daunting. Continue to a panoramic glass clothing hypermarket, a few figures in the bright store, a few minutes out of the hypermarket, under the glass door, the bright store looks a little depressed.

Ji Linyuan sighed in his heart, the current Zhongxing Street has become so depressed, but the outside world has been advocating that the economic development situation in Jiangxia is very good, and the gap between the actual situation and the expectation will one day break out contradictions, and there may even be an economic reshuffle.

At present, Starlight Bar has also encountered an economic crisis, the capital chain is tight, and it is very good to be able to operate normally, if it can survive the depression in the second half of the year, it will usher in new development opportunities.

Ji Linyuan seems to understand the purpose of Su Zongming's choice to cooperate at this time, the current economy of the entire Zhongxing Street is not very good, if you enter at this time, you will buy at a low price like a stock and sell it at a high price, which is a very common point but usually does not pay much attention to, but when is the time when Zhongxing Street ushers in a high price? Could it be that the economic situation advocated by the outside world is very good, is it really an opportunity, or is it a signal sent by some insiders? If all this is true, then just sit and wait, and never let Su Zongming take advantage.

With a heart in mind, I unconsciously came to the jungle tribe bar at the west end of Zhongxing Street, the jungle tribe is still brightly lit, customers come in and out, and it seems that business is quite good.

Ji Linyuan is a special guest of the jungle tribe, she does not need to go through security checks when she enters and exits, she enters the bar and comes to the lobby, she calls Xiaojun, and Xiaojun hurriedly comes down to receive him in person, and he still has the original document in his hand.

"Sister Ji, hello. Xiao Jun hurriedly walked downstairs and came to Ji Linyuan, and greeted him warmly, the cooperation between the jungle tribe and Starlight was basically contacted by Xiao Jun and Ji Linyuan, so the relationship between the two of them was still relatively familiar.

Ji Linyuan smiled and stretched out his hand and said, "Xiaojun, hello." ”
