Chapter 403 Pretending to be bno good fruit to eat
At seven o'clock in the evening, Zhou Ming came to the Garden Restaurant, which is a luxury restaurant located at the foot of Parliament Hill, the most prominent feature of this restaurant is that the environment is very elegant, it is very good to find a place like this in the center of Brighton, of course, relatively, the consumption of the Garden Restaurant is also amazingly high, even if it is a senior white-collar worker with an annual salary of 100,000 yuan, it will be quite difficult to afford the consumption here, which can be seen from the consumption here.

Of course, this doesn't matter to the real rich, so the garden restaurant has also become an ideal place for many rich people or dignitaries to gather for lunch, and it is for this reason that Zhou Ming chose the meeting place with Christo here.
The reason is very simple, that is, because there are many rich people here, the safety factor will be higher, and I want to know that Christo can't go to extremes here, because if something happens, even if the Addams family still has a president in charge, there is no way to be good, and for Zhou Ming, he doesn't want to take unnecessary risks, like the dangerous situation at Eitley, Zhou Ming doesn't want to go through it a second time.
Christo originally disagreed with this, after all, he was also a celebrity in Brighton's rich circle, and if he was seen, his face would be gone.
Zhou Ming's expression of this is also very simple, if you are not here, then don't meet, and in the end, Christo had no choice but to agree to Zhou Ming.
Zhou Ming didn't have the habit of being late, so Zhou Ming arrived here first and went to the box they had already booked, and it wasn't until ten o'clock at seven o'clock that Christo came here late. Pushing open the door of the box, Christo said to Zhou Ming: "I'm very sorry, because I have some temporary things, so I'm a little late, but Mr. Zhou Ming, please rest assured, I can be responsible for the meal money this time." ”
Christo's words were an apology, but Zhou Ming didn't see any apology on his face, but Zhou Ming was not surprised by this, because Zhou Ming knew that he was obviously doing this for his proud self-esteem, and he also wanted to give himself a dismount.
"Of course, I also need to introduce myself first, my name is Christo and I am the patriarch of the Addams family, I think Mr. Zhou Ming must already know me, right?" Christo said with a smile.
In fact, Christo didn't need to introduce himself at all, because Zhou Ming had already recognized him the first time he came in, although Zhou Ming hadn't seen him in person before, Zhou Ming had seen his son Robert, and his face was almost exactly the same as his son's.
Regarding Christo's words, Zhou Ming just smiled coldly, then stood up and said: "Of course I understand that Mr. Christo is busy, but my time is not always available, originally I promised Mr. Christo that your time is seven o'clock, and I am also willing to chat with Mr. Christo at this time, but I don't have time now, let's make an appointment next time, goodbye." ”
After Zhou Ming finished speaking, he walked towards the door, Christo was surprised by this but did not stop him, just looked at Zhou Ming and said disdainfully: "Mr. Zhou Ming, I think I have already said sorry, it will be very boring if you make such a gesture again, and you must also understand who is in charge of Brighton now, I just want to give you a chance when I come out this time, you have to cherish this opportunity!"
The more Christo's words were spoken, the more excited he became, but Zhou Ming ignored him, opened the door directly and walked out of the room, this sudden change made Christo stunned on the spot, because he originally thought that Zhou Ming was just making a gesture like this, how could he have thought that Zhou Ming would really leave so unreasonable, Christo was not psychologically prepared at all, and did not react until Zhou Ming left the room.
"Did you just give up this opportunity to talk to me face-to-face?" Christo shouted at Zhou Ming behind his back, but Zhou Ming didn't respond to any news from him, because Zhou Ming had already walked away.
Christo was stunned on the spot, he didn't expect Zhou Mingzhen to leave so simply, not dragging his feet at all.
In fact, not only Christo was stunned, but also Kendini Iron Pentagon, including Edward, when Zhou Ming told them about this after going back, Edward and they didn't know what to say at that time.
Being late is indeed a very annoying thing, but generally speaking, since they have already chosen to wait, now that people have arrived, what should they do, after all, they have already made an appointment to meet, then there must be something, if you are unhappy, find a way to find a way to get back to the field later, how can you say that you can go?
Zhou Ming explained: "This is not capriciousness, but to use the facts to tell him that there is no good fruit to eat if he pretends to be in front of me! ”
One sentence was domineering, but Edward and the others were so surprised that they were dumbfounded, you must know that the Addams family is a powerful family that created the first dynasty of the United States, even if it is the president of the United States, or a family like Morgan Rockefeller, they still have to give them three points of thin face, but Zhou Ming actually got up and left directly because of the other party's tardiness, which is the biggest humiliation to the Addams family.
"Mr. Zhou Ming, you are too impulsive in this matter, right? I know that Christo's tardiness is disrespectful to you, and he also hopes to try to gain the upper hand through such a move, this is his habit, because he is the patriarch of the Addams family, so he has a lot of pride and self-esteem, but ...... That's all!, how can you be so serious about this?" said Euguins, puzzled.
"Of course I know, but it's not that he has pride and self-esteem, and others don't have it. Zhou Ming said innocently.
Cavendi said again: "Of course, we know that Mr. Zhou Ming, you also have your dignity, and your dignity is also worth protecting, but the problem is not at this time! Mr. Zhou Ming, you are such a smart person, how can you make such a child's judgment at this time?"
Joseph said more directly: "This is the end, Mr. Zhou Ming, you humiliated Christo in this way, the Adams family must be fighting with our Kendini family! Mr. Zhou Ming, you are not helping us at all, but harming us!"
This time before Zhou Ming could speak, Edward stood up first and said: "Did you all know Mr. Zhou Ming on the first day? Have you all forgotten what Mr. Zhou Ming said to us before?
"So Mr. Zhou Ming, please tell us what you think. Patrick asked.
"My opinion is simple, I think Christo will swallow this breath and he will come to contact me and apologize to me for being late. Zhou Ming said.
As Zhou Ming finished speaking, the conference room suddenly fell silent, as if even everyone's heartbeat could be heard clearly, and the five Edward looked at Zhou Ming in a daze, with an incredible expression as if asking: I said Mr. Zhou Ming, your old man's words are just finished?
This strange silence lasted for a long time before Edward said, "Mr. Zhou Ming, how did you make such an unreasonable judgment?"
Edward undoubtedly had great reservations about this, but in fact he wanted to say: Uncle, why do you say that Christo will take the initiative to admit your mistakes? Are you his father? Can you make such a judgment, are you mentally retarded?
Zhou Ming was about to say something, but before he could speak, his mobile phone rang, Zhou Ming thought for a while, and directly turned on the speaker to connect, and soon Christo's voice came: "Hello Mr. Zhou Ming, I am Christo, I made this call to apologize to you, it is very rude for me to be late today, and I also hope that we can make another appointment, this time I promise not to be late." ”
Christo gritted his teeth and said this, you can imagine how unwilling he was to say this, but it didn't matter, because his words were like detonating a bombshell, and everyone was stunned at once. The eyes of the five people were full of incredulity, especially Edward, who had just spoken, and he felt that his face was swollen like bread at this moment.
If it weren't for the fact that Zhou Ming couldn't have prepared in advance, they would even think that this was a play that Christo deliberately cooperated with Zhou Ming to perform, otherwise it would be too incomprehensible.
"I'm not dreaming, am I? Or is there a deviation in our cognition? Mr. Zhou Ming should have said just now that he left directly at the dinner in the evening, right? No matter how you think about it, it should be a matter of humiliating the Addams family, and it stands to reason that the Addams family should have to fight with Mr. Zhou Ming endlessly, how can they take the initiative to apologize and continue to invite? This is too strange, right?"
Eugens was stunned, his words also spoke the hearts of others, only Edward sighed faintly, and he whispered to others that Zhou Ming's situation could not be inferred with common sense.
Maybe their logic is rigorous, and they know the nobles of Brighton better than Zhou Ming, but they are undoubtedly as fragile as a piece of paper in the face of the facts, they just questioned Zhou Ming, and now the facts have slapped them in the face, once again proving to them that Zhou Ming is right no matter what he does.
"Since Mr. Christo has said so, then it would be too ungraceful for me to refuse," Zhou Ming then changed his words, "But I have to remind Mr. Christo this time, you can't be late again!"
Christo's side was almost stimulated by Zhou Ming to explode foul mouth, but fortunately he endured it in the end, so he could only grit his teeth and say, "Please rest assured, Mr. Zhou Ming, I will be there on time." ”
After saying the last sentence, Christo hung up the phone in a hurry, regardless of whether Zhou Ming responded or not, because he was afraid of hearing more from Zhou Ming.
And here, Zhou Ming hung up the phone, spread his hands and wanted Edward to signal that it was that simple.
Edward they wanted to say something, but in the end they didn't say anything, because no words are thin in the face of the facts.
Finally, Edward asked, "Mr. Zhou Ming, why is this?"
This is also a question that the other four people want to ask, and Zhou Ming replied: "It's actually very simple, I guess Christo must have a reason to come to me, otherwise he wouldn't have to take the initiative to invite me." So since he has this reason, he will definitely bear my provocation that is not enough, so he didn't figure out the situation, and if he didn't have to come late to provoke me, I wouldn't have picked it directly. ”
"Actually, I'm a very good person, I never hold grudges, I always avenged him on the spot. Zhou Ming said that these words made the five people present break out in a cold sweat.
