Chapter Thirty-Eight: There Is No Good Feast
Liu Ruting glanced at Xun Yuan and replied, "This is my friend, a psychiatrist." ”
"Psychiatrist, what's wrong with you?" Liu Hongtao worried.
"It's okay, it's just stressful, find a doctor and talk to it. ”
Liu Hongtao breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Scare me, what pressure will there be at work in the future, you can ask a few old-timers for advice, don't fight against yourself, you know?"
"Got it, Dad. Liu Ruting smiled.
Kong Zhixing, who was facing the table, saw her smile, his eyes were straight, he really hoped that woman could smile at him.
Liu Hongtao also wanted to ask about Xun Yuan, but at this time, Liu Ge hurriedly ran over and sat down next to Xun Yuan.
"It's your sister's birthday today, why are you so distracted?" asked Liu Hongtao with a blank face.
Liu Ge shrunk his neck, not daring to reply, Liu Ruting hurriedly explained: "Dad, I asked him to do something, don't talk about him." ”
"Hmph, I've been idle all day long, if it weren't for you, this company would have been ruined by him. Liu Hongtao glared at his son and said.
Kong Hongsheng on the side said with a smile: "I said Lao Liu, your sister and brother are the elite in business, compared with my dog, I don't know how much better, he is the son of a gentleman, and he causes trouble for me every day, alas, I envy you, you have such a good child." ”
Being praised by the opponent, but it was a happy thing, Liu Hongtao smiled and said modestly: "How can there be, how can there be, your family is still young, and if you hone and hone it, you will still have a chance." ”
After such a distraction, Liu Hongtao didn't ask about Xunyuan.
The dishes were quickly served, the host announced the start of the banquet, elegant music played, the wine table was staggered, and everyone had a smile on their faces.
After three rounds of drinking, Kong Zhixing touched his father's arm and said eagerly: "Dad, when will you introduce me." ”
Kong Shengxing stepped on his son's foot, the smile on his face remained unchanged, and he squeezed out the words between his teeth: "It's not time yet, you wait." ”
It didn't take long for the host to announce the celebration of Liu Ruting's happy birthday, and the song immediately switched to a birthday song, and a one-person-high cake was pushed in front of Liu Ruting.
The waiter lit all the candles on the cake, and the lights in the hall were suddenly extinguished, like a candle flame swaying in the starlight to illuminate Liu Ruting's beautiful face.
She turned her head to look at Xun Yuan beside her, the smile on her face became even stronger, Xun Yuan smiled and nodded, and said softly, "Make a wish." ”
"Make a wish! Make a wish!"
The young man in the hall shouted loudly, Liu Ruting slowly closed her eyes, and when she opened them a minute later, she blew out the candles on the cake.
"Happy Birthday!"
The sound of neat blessings resounded throughout the hall, and Liu Ruting smiled and bowed slightly to express her gratitude.
The lights in the hall came back on, and the banquet was back to normal.
Almost halfway through the meal, everyone at the table was a little drunk, and it was a good time to talk.
Kong Hongsheng chatted with Liu Hongtao about business cooperation, and looked at the appearance of the two, and they talked happily.
After the business was almost discussed, Kong Hongsheng suddenly said: "Xiao Liu has learned the essence of your old fox, Lao Liu, you have a successor." ”
"Haha, it's too famous, but it's a pity that she's a woman, and she still suffers a little loss in business. Liu Hongtao said with a smile.
Liu Ruting was unhappy, and said angrily: "Dad, you're here again, didn't I do a good job?"
"Yes, yes, I made a mistake, my family's Tingting is much better than a man. Liu Hongtao said with a smile.
Kong Hongsheng interjected: "That is, Xiao Liu's reputation is one of the best in the business world of Jiangsu and Zhejiang Province, much better than men, but you are such an excellent person, why don't you find a boyfriend?"
"This ...... I just haven't found the right one yet. Liu Ruting secretly glanced at Xun Yuan and said.
Liu Hongsheng rolled his eyes and said, "Suitable, suitable, if you drag it out, you will become an older leftover girl." ”
Kong Hongsheng hurriedly said: "Oh, Lao Liu, look at what you said, this is hurtful, with Xiao Liu's ability, ordinary men are indeed not worthy of her." ”
He looked at his son and said with a smile: "My child, has always been above the top, ordinary women can't look down on it, and I've always been single, I'm worried about losing my hair, or you two know each other, if there is fate, it is a blessing to come together." ”
Kong Zhixing stared at Liu Ruting, his eyes were blazing.
After listening to the words, Liu Hongsheng said with a smile: "I think it's okay, the man is not married and the woman is not married, you can match, in case it happens, our two companies will join forces, and we can really make a world." ”
Liu Ruting coughed lightly and said, "Thank you Uncle Kong for your kindness, but I have someone I like now, so ...... Don't want to meet other men. ”
The ruthless refusal made Kong Zhixing's face ugly, and Kong Hongsheng was also suffocated, he didn't expect the other party to refuse, and there was no euphemism at all.
Liu Hongtao's face fell, and he said, "Ru Ting, how did you speak? Why haven't I heard you say anything about someone you like? Could it be that I met it when I was hospitalized?"
His eyes fell on Xun Yuan, and his gaze was cold.
Liu Ruting leaned forward, blocked her father's sight, and said: "In terms of emotional matters, I hope my father will not interfere with me, I have my own sense of proportion." ”
People like us pay attention to the right people, and not all cats and dogs can talk about it. There was already anger in Liu Hongtao's tone.
Kong Hongsheng hurriedly persuaded: "Okay, it's all my fault, why do you mention this kind of thing, don't be angry at a good birthday banquet." ”
The more Liu Hongtao thought about it, the more angry he became, and said to Xun Yuan: "Boy, stay away from my Tingting." ”
Xun Yuan put down the tableware, and before he could speak, Liu Ruting had already pushed back and said, "Dad, you promised me before, you don't interfere in emotional matters, why do you want to talk about this today?"
Liu Hongtao opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a while.
Liu Ruting continued: "And your heart is not good, don't be angry, okay? I was happy today, can I not talk about this heavy topic?"
Liu Ge also helped his sister speak: "Yes, Dad,"
Liu Hongtao snorted and stopped talking.
The atmosphere at this table was suddenly a little delicate, and it didn't take long for the man with glasses to suddenly speak: "Okay, after you finish speaking, I have something to say, Ningshan City has not been peaceful recently, and there have been a lot of things, I don't know what Liu Dong knows?"
"Who is this?" Kong Hongsheng said with a frown.
Liu Hongtao frowned, and said softly: "The people above." ”
Kong Hongsheng was shocked and stopped talking.
Liu Hongtao cleared his throat and said, "I don't understand what you mean. ”
"Have you forgotten what happened back then? Don't look at my age, my predecessors told me about the past. The man with glasses said lightly.
His words immediately aroused the attention of everyone present, and they all wanted to know what had happened back then.
Xun Yuan's heart moved, and his attention was focused on the conversation between the two.
Liu Hongtao's eyes narrowed, a trace of sharpness flashed in his eyes, and said: "My daughter's birthday, I don't want to talk about this topic, we'll talk about it later." ”
The man with glasses shook his head and said, "I planned to do so at first, but since he is here, we are here to talk, and the others are not outsiders, and if you know some things, you can prevent them in advance." ”
After he finished speaking, he glanced at Xun Yuan.
Liu Hongtao sighed, looked at Zhong Yao and asked, "You are here for this too?"
"Yes, I hope Uncle Liu will focus on the overall situation, and this matter needs your intelligence. Zhong Yao nodded.
"Dad, what's the matter?" Liu Ruting wondered.
She had a bad feeling that what would happen next was going to be serious.
Liu Hongtao didn't answer his daughter's question, but said to the man with glasses: "Tell me first, which person here made you change your mind?"
The glasses man's gaze fell on Xun Yuan, and said, "You don't need to know who it is, you just have to tell the matter." ”
His eyes were so obvious that everyone here knew that the person in his mouth was Xunyuan.
Liu Hongtao glanced at Xun Yuan coldly, and then said: "Back then, I had three chapters with those three people, and the things of that year were going to rot in my stomach, and I couldn't say anything to anyone, I really didn't expect you two to get the news." ”
"Uncle Liu, don't you know what happened recently? Back then, the resurgence of that organization, and if you concealed something, it wouldn't be such a thing as a death. Zhong Yao persuaded.
Liu Hongtao was entangled, his brows were tightly locked, his eyes were erratic, his heart was overturned, and finally he said: "The information I know is similar to that of your elders, why don't you ask them?"
The man with glasses said in a deep voice: "The death of that incident back then, the madness of madness, the core members were basically killed and injured, and now only you are the one who survives, you confessed a lot of things back then, but you must have hidden something." ”
Liu Hongtao lowered his head, looked at his wrinkled hands, and sighed: "I'm about to rot wood, an old man who is not in good health, why do you have to force each other?"
Xun Yuan was startled, and his whole body tensed.
"What organization? I don't know what you're talking about. The man in glasses said with a frown.
Liu Hongtao sighed again and said, "It's okay if you target me, but don't involve my children." ”
"Dad, what do you mean by that?" Liu Ruting exclaimed.
Liu Ge didn't have the heart to eat, so he asked, "Yes, Dad, what are you talking about?"
Xun Yuan took a deep breath, and suddenly pointed at Zhong Yao and said, "You are not Zhong Yao, you and he are both members of the Dream Organization, right?"
The two men didn't speak, just looked coldly at the crowd at the table.
The atmosphere suddenly became weird, and the man with glasses asked, "How did you guess our identity?"
Liu Hongtao said coldly: "Your purpose is too strong, and the reason is far-fetched, if you can't guess this, I have lived in vain all these years." ”
The man with glasses and "Zhong Yao" glanced at each other, raised his hand and waved, and a strange energy swept through the entire hall.
At this time, only Xun Yuan and Liu were left in the entire hall, as well as the glasses man and the fake Zhong Yao, and the others all disappeared.
