Chapter 51: I Really Booked It
Six o'clock in the evening.
Beihai Airport.
Headed by the old lady of the Xia family, including several descendants of the Xia family and several senior executives of the Xia Group, they came forward to pick up the airport.
Because of the people who came back from the capital this time, in addition to Xia Xianjian, the general manager of Xia Group, there was also a distinguished guest specially invited by Xia Xianjin from the capital.
According to Xia Xianjian, this distinguished guest is the noble person he met when he went to the capital to talk about business this time, and it is also the biggest opportunity for the Xia family to develop in the capital of China.
Because of this, the Xia family will attach so much importance to this pick-up, and the old lady will go into battle in person.
"Dad, we're here!"
At 6:15, Xia Changlong suddenly waved and shouted to the crowd.
People immediately looked in the direction of Xia Changlong's finger.
Two middle-aged men in suits and leather shoes were walking side by side towards them.
One of them, tall and mighty, with a momentum like a rainbow, is Xia Xianjian, the general manager of Xia's Group.
Xia Xianjin is the eldest son of the Xia family, holds the real power of the Xia family, and is second only to Lao Taijun in the right to speak, and is the second person in the Xia family.
Another middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes looked more bloated, with a slightly pale complexion, I don't know if he hasn't seen the sun all year round, but has symptoms on his body.
Obviously, this pale-faced bloated man was the distinguished guest mentioned by Xia Xian on the phone.
Although he doesn't seem to have anything worth mentioning, the nobleman who Xia Xian highly admires is, of course, not disrespectful.
"Changlong, Changyun, Mom!"
After Xia Xianjin saw Xia Changlong and the others, he immediately smiled and led the distinguished guest to greet him quickly.
Because Xia Xian has been in the capital for almost a year, as soon as he came back, everyone was naturally very enthusiastic and kept greetings.
After greeting for a while, Xia Xian immediately introduced the distinguished guest next to the old lady and said, "Mom, this is the noble person I mentioned to you on the phone who helped me a lot, Mr. Yang Shoukang, general manager of Beijing Blum Group!"
Saying that, Xia Xianjin introduced in turn: "Mr. Yang, this is my mother and the chairman of our Xia Group. She heard that you were coming to Beihai City this time, so she came to take advantage of it. ”
"Oh, old lady, you are so warm and polite!"
Yang Shoukang shook hands with the old lady warmly, and said with emotion: "You are so old, I still let you wait for me, it really torments me!"
Seeing that although Yang Shoukang was a big man from the capital, he was very talkative and unscrupulous, and the old lady immediately felt a little more favorable.
"I have said many times on the phone that I went to the capital this time thanks to your care. Since you are the benefactor of our Xia family, of course I, an old woman, should pay attention to it. ”
The old lady said enthusiastically: "You have been traveling all day, the hotel is ready, let's go to eat first, and then go directly to the hotel to rest." ”
"That's right. ”
Suddenly, the old lady remembered something, looked at Xia Xian, and asked, "Didn't Tingting go to the capital with you? Why didn't she come back?"
Xia Tingting is the youngest daughter of the old lady, and she is an old woman, she is only in her early thirties this year, she is not married, and she is not a few years older than Xia Wange.
For this little daughter, the old lady is very loving.
As soon as the youngest daughter left for more than half a year, the old lady missed it very much, if she hadn't had to greet the distinguished guests first, she would have asked questions the first time she saw Xia Xian.
"Oh, Sister Tingmei still has some things to deal with in the capital, and she won't be back in a few days. ”
Xia Xian explained casually, and then asked, "By the way, Mom, where is our hotel booked?"
Before returning to Beihai City, Xia Xianjin contacted the old lady in advance, hoping that the old lady could move the relationship, and it was best to book it at the Five Dragons Banquet or three tables of guests.
This not only gives him enough face, but also allows the guests to feel their enthusiasm, as well as the ability and status of Xia's Group in Beihai City.
Of course, Xia Xian knew very well that this matter was not easy to do, so he just hoped that the old lady could bring him some surprises, and he didn't have to eat in those two places.
Hearing Xia Xian's question, the old lady immediately set her eyes on Xia Wange's body and said, "Wange, I left this matter to you, how did you do it?"
"Give it to her?"
Hearing this, Xia Xian was stunned.
Although he knew that this matter was difficult to do, and the chances of the old lady doing it were very small, he didn't expect that the old lady would actually break the jar like this.
Xia Wange is just a small deputy supervisor, and her connections can't be on the table at all.
Coupled with the fact that there is a waste husband who has been dragging her back, her chances of doing this are zero at all.
The old lady knew that she couldn't do it, so she simply put the blame on Xia Wange?
Suddenly, Xia Xianjin saw Xia Changyun and Xia Changlong with a sneer on their faces, and raised their eyebrows.
Knowing the son is more than the father.
Looking at the expressions of Xia Changlong and the others, he understood that this matter should not be the old lady's idea, but the two little guys.
Xia Changlong and Xia Wange fought because the two families had not dealt with each other, coupled with the fight for family property, the relationship gradually deteriorated to a hostile level.
Xia Changyun and Xia Wange fought purely out of jealousy, because although Xia Wange had a bad time, the outside world's comments on the descendants of the Xia family still said that Xia Wange was the first beauty of the Xia family.
This made Xia Changyun, who had been jealous since childhood, very dissatisfied, and naturally wanted to oppose Xia Wange everywhere, so as to seek revenge by belittling Xia Wange.
Since this matter was picked up by the two juniors, it makes sense, otherwise the old lady would be too confused.
"Grandma, I'll call and ask about this first. ”
Xia Wange answered, then took out his mobile phone and walked to the side to contact Chen Angelica.
Seeing that Xia Wange had something to do, Xia Changyun immediately sneered and said, "Pretending to be presentable, who does she think she can book a five-dragon banquet or three tables of guests with a phone call?"
Xia Changlong also sneered again and again, waiting to see Xia Wange make a fool of himself in front of the distinguished guests.
During this period of time, he suffered too many losses and suffered too many grievances on Xia Wange.
Although now that his father is back and someone is back for him, he still hopes that revenge will come sooner.
The more embarrassing and unlucky Xia Wange is, the happier and more excited he is.
Not long after, Xia Wange came back after making a phone call, and said to the old lady: "Grandma, the hotel has been booked, and it is in the New Year's Courtyard of the Three Tables of Guests." ”
"Whew!"
Hearing this, Xia Changyun sneered and said, "Pretend, continue to pretend!" It's up to you, you can't book the Five Dragons Banquet, let alone book three tables of guests! You just got a compliment from your grandmother this morning, for fear that you won't be able to do anything and make your grandma happy, so you even took out the trick of lying?"
The old lady also frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Evening Song, there are distinguished guests, you must not lie for the sake of face." If we go to the third table later, but we are bombarded by others, can you afford this responsibility?"
Seeing that the old lady and Xia Changyun spoke in a strange tone, Yang Shoukang raised his eyebrows and asked curiously: "Old lady, Mr. Xia, what is the place of these three table guests?
"Oh, yes. ”
Xia Xianjin immediately explained to Yang Shoukang the special status of the three tables in Beihai City.
Yang Shoukang was stunned, and then said empathetically: "Old lady, let's just have a meal, no matter where we eat." Since the reservation of the three tables is scheduled for next month, it is normal for this female doll not to be booked. ”
"Normal is normal. ”
Xia Changyun suddenly sneered: "But if you can't book, you can't say that you can't book, lying to save face, that's not normal, especially lying in front of Mr. Yang, isn't this disrespectful to your guests?"
"Changyun!"
Hearing this, the old lady immediately frowned.
Although Xia Changyun is reasonable, but in front of the distinguished guests, it is bound to leave a very bad impression on the distinguished guests.
If there is anything to say at home, Xia Changyun is very ignorant when he does this.
It's just that Xia Wange hesitated, and finally insisted on saying: "Grandma, I didn't lie, I really booked three tables of guests, if you don't believe it, let's go and see?"
Xia Changyun wanted to ridicule Xia Wange again for deliberately embarrassing the Xia family, but she was glared at by the old lady, and immediately held back her words.
On the contrary, Xia Changlong suddenly changed his normal behavior and said: "Grandma, since Xia Wange is so sure, it doesn't hurt for us to go and have a look! After all, if Xia Wange really booked a room, we won't go, wouldn't it be a pigeon that released the three table guests? It will inevitably offend the boss behind the three table guests." ”
Although Xia Changlong's words seemed to be helping Xia Wange, he still had wishful thinking in his heart.
If he just humiliated Xia Wange with words, it would not have the effect he expected at all.
But if everyone went to the third table of guests but was blasted out, then Xia Wange made everyone in the Xia family lose face in front of the distinguished guests, and the old lady was bound to be furious.
That's what he wants.
