Chapter 663: The chattering cousin
Zhang Chi hates the most about holding meetings, but considering that he came to Shanghai to participate in the forum exchanges, he should attend a formal meeting, otherwise he can't be reasonable, so he reluctantly participated in the morning meeting.
This kind of meeting is as unnutritious as ever, and in Zhang Chi's view, 99% of the world's meetings can be summed up in three words - fake, big, and empty. But this thing is definitely a necessity for social activities, as long as you want to participate in social activities, you can't avoid it.
He belonged to the most inconspicuous small role among the participants, the rostrum had no other share, he sat down in the back row, secretly played a game, Bai Xiaomi changed his clothes and came over, but he didn't come to sit down next to him, probably because he still remembered Zhang Chi knocking on the table in front of her.
Zhang Daxian smiled at Bai Xiaomi, lowered his head and continued to play the game, the middle-aged man next to him turned his head over, Zhang Chi looked up at the middle-aged man, the middle-aged man had a simple face, and showed a friendly smile to Zhang Chi.
Zhang Chi nodded, his body turned to the side, staring at other people's mobile phone screens was an impolite behavior, but after playing for a while, he felt that he still had a pair of eyes staring at him.
Zhang Chi looked back, the middle-aged man didn't look at his mobile phone screen, but just looked at him with a pair of eyes, not hostile, full of friendliness, and there seemed to be a little appreciation in it.
If it is a beauty, Zhang Daxian must be more acceptable, but the problem is that he stares at himself like this, and he is a middle-aged greasy man, holding a thermos cup in his hand, the kind of wolfberry soaked in the thermos cup, this eager little look makes Zhang Chi vigilant, could it be that this product is no longer satisfied with just soaking wolfberry?
Zhang Chi dared to conclude that he had definitely not met this guy in the past, and glanced at the other party's conference card, there was a name on it, and it was clearly written Chu Tian Boguang, Zhang Chi said why not call Tian Boguang, Tian Boguang is only interested in women.
The other party said in a low voice: "You are Zhang Chi, right?"
Everyone has an admission card with a photo with their name on it, and it's not unusual for him to be able to call his name.
Zhang Chi nodded.
Tian Boguang took the initiative to stretch out his hand to Zhang Chi, Zhang Chi was not easy to refuse, and shook hands with him, feeling that the hand of this product was very hot and damp, and shaking hands with people with sweaty hands was not a comfortable thing, Zhang Chi quickly pulled his hand out.
Tian Boguang said: "You are Qi Bing's boyfriend, right?"
Zhang Chi was stunned for a moment, the other party actually mentioned Qi Bing, he nodded, he hadn't heard Qi Bing mention this person.
Tian Boguang smiled: "It's normal that you don't know me, we haven't met, but I know you, and I've heard your name for a long time, let me introduce myself, I am Qi Bing's cousin, Xue Huizhen's cousin." ”
Zhang Chi heard him call out Xue Huizhen's name, and knew that it should be an acquaintance, but in modern society, cousins are far less close than in the past.
Tian Boguang continued to introduce himself: "Xue Huizhen and I are aunts and cousins, and her mother is my aunt. ”
This relationship can be regarded as close enough, Zhang Chi accompanied the smiling face, it was Qi Bing's elder who was his elder, and he said respectfully: "Hello cousin." Xin said that he had never heard Qi Bing mention this person in the past, and it is estimated that there are not many contacts, and judging from the fact that Tian Boguang is sitting in the same area as him, he is definitely not an important person.
Tian Boguang said: "I am from the Nanyang delegation this time, and I am now settled in Xingjiapo. ”
Zhang Chi said: "You are an overseas Chinese?"
Tian Boguang said: "Chinese, from my grandfather's generation, went to Nanyang. ”
"My cousin speaks Chinese so well. Zhang Daxian did not compliment him at all, Tian Boguang said that the Chinese language not only did not have a taste of Southeast Asia, but revealed a northeast accent, if he did not take the initiative to introduce, Zhang Chi even thought that he was a northeasterner.
Tian Boguang said: "Usually we all speak Northeast dialect at home. ”
Zhang Chi nodded.
Tian Boguang suggested: "Go out and smoke a cigarette?"
Zhang Chi said respectfully: "I don't smoke, you go, I'll wait for you here." ”
Tian Boguang smiled, went out alone, and when he left, Zhang Chi sent a message to Qi Bing, asking if Qi Bing had such a cousin, Qi Bing remembered that there was a cousin in Nanyang, but she had never seen it, she asked Zhang Chi to send her a photo, but Zhang Chi didn't have it.
Qi Bing quickly sent Zhang Chi a photo, the photo was a group photo of her mother Xue Huizhen and several relatives, she had just asked her mother to come, Zhang Chi found Tian Boguang from the photo, standing on the edge, looking inconspicuous.
Qi Bing's news came again, Tian Boguang is a professor at Nanyang University, his family is one of the richest families in Nanyang, and the family industry involves communications, rubber, and freight transportation.
Zhang Chi secretly sighed that people were not good-looking, he couldn't imagine that Tian Boguang was so powerful.
Tian Boguang came in again after going out to smoke, sitting next to Zhang Chi, with a smell of tobacco on his body that did not dissipate, and said in a low voice: "Don't arrange other things at night, I'll invite you to dinner." ”
Zhang Chi had actually agreed to Zhang Qiming, but Tian Boguang proposed it, and it was not easy for him to refuse, so he pondered it for a while, and simply took Tian Boguang with him, that is, to add an extra pair of chopsticks.
When the meeting ended in the morning, Tian Boguang went out with him and invited Zhang Chi to his room, Zhang Chi followed him over, and found that Lao Tian lived in a business suite, which belonged to the highest standard of forum reception, that is to say, Lao Tian and An Chongguang belonged to the same level of guests.
Tian Boguang gave Zhang Chi four TWG tea, although it was not a valuable item, but as an elder, he gave him a gift, and Zhang Daxian also behaved with sincere fear.
Tian Boguang called Xue Huizhen in front of Zhang Chi, the phone was connected, he chatted a few words, and then handed the phone to Zhang Chi.
Zhang Chi was respectful to his future mother-in-law: "Aunt Xue, hello." ”
"Zhang Chi, I didn't expect such a coincidence, you can actually meet, you can help me entertain your cousin. ”
Zhang Chi agreed again and again, put down the phone, and saw that it was already lunch time, so he went to eat buffet with Tian Boguang, not that he wanted to accompany Tian Boguang, but that this cousin always followed him.
With the boring meeting experience in the morning, Zhang Daxian became more and more resistant to the meeting, so he sent a message to Bai Xiaomi to ask her to help sign in, probably because of the morning table knocking incident Bai Xiaomi gave him a reply, Zhang Chi could only hand over this matter to the motor.
In the afternoon, I went to the gym to train, and then went back to the room to sleep, and just after lying down, Tian Boguang's phone called, I was very concerned about him, and asked him why he didn't go to the meeting?
Zhang Chi politely told him that he didn't sleep well last night, so he made up for it.
Lao Tian reminded him to pay attention to his body and come to see him after the meeting.
Zhang Daxian was a little speechless, and suddenly found that one more relative would pay more attention, which didn't seem to be a good thing, not long after sleeping in the room, the doorbell rang again, Zhang Chi got up and looked, Lao Tian came, and couldn't help but have a big head, didn't he say that he came over after the meeting? Why is it so fast? Looking at the time, it was already half past four in the afternoon, Zhang Chi opened the door and saw Tian Boguang carrying a large bag of fruit nutrition in his hand.
Zhang Chi couldn't help but laugh and said, "Cousin, you are ...... this"
Lao Tian said: "Buy you something to supplement, eat more fruits to supplement vitamin C, this is bird's nest, authentic Indonesian official bird's nest." ”
"It's not...... Cousin, I'm not sick. ”
"Young people don't know how to pay attention to their bodies, and if they feel tired, they have to recuperate, which is called prevention before it happens, otherwise it will be too late to regret it in the future. ”
Zhang Chi went to get a bottle of mineral water for Lao Tian, and Lao Tian said, "You slept okay in the afternoon, right?"
Zhang Chixin said that I had only been sleeping for an hour before I was woken up by you, and nodded and said, "It's okay." ”
Lao Tian said: "Taking a nap for too long is not good for the body, people are like this, the evening drum and morning bell, the morning clouds and twilight rain, everything has a growth law, and you must not go against the trend." ”
Zhang Chi nodded again and again, this Lao Tian is really too chatty, but people have good intentions, so they can only listen patiently.
Lao Tian babbled about a channel, and taught his own maintenance experience to Zhang Chi without reservation, Zhang Chi's left ear went in and out of the right ear, and he probably understood that Lao Tian belonged to the middle-aged abstinence department. When my scalp tingled, the doorbell rang again.
Zhang Chi wanted to open the door, but Lao Tian asked him to rest, relying on the advantage of being closer to the door, and rushed to open the door, Rui Fu stood outside the door in a provocative outfit, and shouted: "How did you open the ......" I found that the door was opened by a middle-aged greasy man and couldn't help but be taken aback.
Lao Tian looked at Rui Fu vigilantly: "Who are you? Who are you looking for?"
When Zhang Chi heard Ruifu's voice, he knew that this foreign girl had come over to seduce herself with the suite again.
Rui Fu looked at the room number and found that she was not wrong, she was also very quick to respond, and immediately said: "Isn't this 1716?
As soon as Zhang Chi heard it, he knew that she was holding back her bad pit, and hurriedly shouted: "Rui Fu, come in, that's my cousin." ”
Rui Fu looked at Lao Tian, and Lao Tian looked at Rui Fu, both of them with wary eyes in their eyes.
Lao Tian said: "I know you, you are also here for a meeting, the Xenobiological Investigation Bureau." ”
Rui Fu said: "Yo, aren't you Professor Tian? The famous Professor Tian, when did you become Zhang Chi's cousin." ”
Tian Boguang smiled: "It's been more than 20 years, and I didn't have time to inform you at that time. ”
Reeve glared at him fiercely.
Both of them entered Zhang Chi's room, and when Zhang Chi saw Rui Fu's outfit, he knew that she didn't have a good heart when she came over this time.
Seeing the nutritional products in the room, Rui Fu said, "What's the matter?
Zhang Chi took the initiative to introduce them: "Professor Tian, my cousin, Rui Fu, my friend. ”
Tian Boguang took out a business card and handed it to Rui Fu: "To be exact, I am the cousin of Zhang Chi's girlfriend." ”
Rui Fu said, "Qi Bing!" She sat down on the sofa and said to Zhang Chi: "I didn't know you had such a powerful cousin, he is a professor at Nanyang University, an expert specializing in paranormal phenomena, and like me, he is not Chinese." She was clearly deliberately emphasizing.
Tian Boguang smiled: "Nationality doesn't mean anything, my roots are here." ”
Rui Fu said: "The roots are here, but the flowers and fruits are all abroad, while taking root in the land, absorbing the nutrients and water of the hometown, while spreading branches and leaves abroad, the fathers and villagers in the hometown not only can't pick your fruits, but also can't smell the fragrance of flowers." ”
Zhang Chi secretly wanted to laugh, Rui Fu's kung fu was not ordinary, she had a head-to-head confrontation with Bai Xiaomi last night, and she was full of fire as soon as she met Tian Boguang today, this foreign girl is a hot character who is not afraid of heaven and earth. However, there is a lot of truth in what she said.
Tian Boguang said: "You foreigners don't understand this kind of homeland. ”
Rui Fu said: "Professor Tian, you are also a foreigner now, I am the same as the outside, and you are the same in front of you and behind the scenes." ”
Tian Boguang laughed, picked up the thermos cup he brought, and poured two large sips of wolfberry tea. The two sips of tea took a sigh of relief, and then said, "Xiao Chi, where are we going to eat at night?"
Zhang Daxian was stunned by his call, and was stunned for a moment before he realized that Xiao Chi was calling himself,! When did I become familiar with you to such a point? Few people seem to call themselves that way in my memory? My mother is one, and my father has never called me that, if He Donglai is his father.
Zhang Chi said: "My friend came back to pick it up, it should be about to fall." Zhang Qiming only said that he would invite him to dinner, but did not say the specific location, he said that he would come and pick him up at half past five.
Rui Fu said: "The drunkard does not mean to drink. She got up and said, "I'm leaving!"
Zhang Chi said: "Rui Fu, if you don't have anything to do at night, you can go together." He also saw that this matter was a little strange, this cousin who suddenly appeared was not an ordinary person, and his motives must not be pure, otherwise Zhang Chi would not have taken the initiative to invite Rui Fu, brine and tofu, one thing and one thing, and call them all over to tear each other down, which is also interesting.
Reeve smiled, "Okay, but I have to go back and change my clothes." "This dress is a little exposed, I wanted to give your kid a little benefit, but I didn't expect that there was an uncle in the room who couldn't beat the eight poles, and you didn't have a mouthful.
After Rui Fu left, Tian Boguang said to Zhang Chi: "Xiao Chi, how do you know her?"
Zhang Chi smiled: "It's been a few years, ordinary friends, don't get me wrong." ”
Tian Boguang sighed and said, "Do you know that she is from the Xenobiological Investigation Bureau? Do you know whose interests she represents? Do you know if she has a plot against you?"
Zhang Chi said: "I haven't thought about this, and I don't have anything to make her a poor student." ”
Tian Boguang said: "Confused, you have to remember that the imperialists are selfless and immortal, and in order to steal our country's secrets, they will use all means, money, beauty, and everything, you must correct your thinking and always be vigilant!"
Zhang Chi couldn't help but be happy when he heard this: "Uncle, you are also in a capitalist society now, and you are the same social system. ”
Tian Boguang shook his head and said: "How can I be the same as her? I am a descendant of Yan and Huang, she is a descendant of the Eight-Nation Alliance, if it weren't for her ancestors bullying us, I wouldn't have left my hometown and become a wanderer, and when it comes to hatred for imperialism, I am more profound than any of you." ”
