Chapter 204: Meet the Parents
Shang Ming sandwiched a cold okra for Bai Ge as usual, and instructed: "If you can, eat more, you see you are so thin." ”
Bai Ge picked up the okra in the bowl, and when she was about to put it in her mouth, she still said what she had held all night.
"My brother asked you to go to my house for the New Year. ”
After Bai Ge finished speaking, he quickly put okra in his mouth and used food to hide his embarrassment.
Shang Ming was also chewing beef in his mouth, and he almost couldn't swallow it after listening to Bai Ge's words.
"Ahem, Bai Ge, you're not kidding, right? You said your brother wants to see me for the New Year?"
The last time he was kidnapped and beaten by Bai Sheng, Shang Ming now has palpitations when he thinks about it.
Bai Ge knew that there was something wrong with this, and she wanted to give up unilaterally: "If it's inconvenient for you, forget it, I'll explain it to my brother!"
After Bai Ge finished speaking, he kept holding the okra on the plate, and Shang Ming hurriedly explained: "No, no, no, I'm convenient, it's very convenient!"
Shang Ming was enthusiastic and positive on the surface, but in fact, he was panicked in his heart.
This is the New Year, not only Bai Ge's brother is here, but her father must also be there, is this not appropriate to meet the parents?
After listening to Shang Ming's words, Bai Ge slowly raised his head and his eyes revealed a little nervousness: "Really, if you feel embarrassed, you can not go." ”
Shang Ming thought to himself that if he refused Brother Bai's invitation, he would probably be escorted directly to the door......
Rather than that, it is better to visit the door in an honest manner, whether it is a blessing or a curse that cannot be avoided, let the storm come more violently!
Shang Ming was ready to "die generously", and the stone in Bai Ge's heart not only did not let go, but became bigger.
What if my father and brother don't like Shang Ming?
Bai Ge and Shang Ming were worried about seeing their parents for the New Year, and Li Li and Zhao Qifeng were also entangled in whether to go home for the New Year.
There was a grand event for the New Year in the shopping mall owned by Li's head office, which had a good relationship with Li Li, and Li Li was considering whether to let Zhao Qifeng also participate.
This is a rare opportunity, although the people present are not big stars, but they are also well-known star actors to help, Zhao Qifeng can be the finale guest, which should be able to increase a lot of exposure.
However, the date of the event happened to be Chinese New Year's Eve, and going meant that Li Li and Zhao Qifeng could not go home to accompany Li's mother for the New Year, which put them in a dilemma.
"Husband, do you think we want to go to this event?"
"Wife, you are my agent, you have the final say. ”
Zhao Qifeng has a strong desire to survive, if he says to go, what if Li Li says that he has no filial piety and will not go home to accompany his parents during the New Year?
If he says he won't go, what if Li Li says that he is not motivated and doesn't know how to seize the opportunity?
So he chose not to make a decision and let Li Li arrange it.
Li Li hesitated, on the one hand, there was a lonely mother, and on the other hand, there was a rare opportunity.
She didn't know how to decide, so she had to throw this problem to her dear mother.
Li Li dialed his mother's phone, and Li's mother, who was looking forward to her daughter and son-in-law going home for the New Year, smiled when she received a call from her daughter: "Hey, Lili, are you back!"
When Li Li heard her mother's excited voice, she knew that she was waiting for herself and Zhao Qifeng to go home with great anticipation.
"Not yet, Mom, I have something I want to ask for your opinion. ”
Mother Li heard Li Li's tone so solemn, thinking that something big had happened, and immediately asked anxiously: "What's the matter, you say it quickly!"
Zhao Qifeng didn't say a word beside him, listening to the conversation between Li Li's mother and daughter nervously.
"It's just that there is an event for the Chinese New Year to invite Qi Feng to participate, but if we go, we will ......"
Halfway through Li Li's words, Li's mother immediately understood what she meant, and said categorically: "The opportunity is rare, you must participate!"
Li's mother is very supportive of her daughter and son-in-law to develop their careers, and when they are old, they can't be a burden to them.
After Li Li got his mother's support, he immediately decided: "Okay, then Qi Feng and I will rush home immediately after participating in the event." ”
Zhao Qifeng felt that there was another person behind him to support, and he was full of energy: "Don't worry, Mom, Li Li and I will rush home to accompany you as soon as possible!"
The family works together to make progress together, this is the meaning of home.
On Chinese New Year's Eve, thousands of lights illuminated the entire Chongqing City, and Shang Ming was driving on the way to the Bai family's old house.
"Brother Feng, 100,000 urgent, what did you prepare for the first time you went to see your mother-in-law?"
Zhao Qifeng was putting on makeup in the backstage of the event, and it was Li Li who answered the phone, and before she could say anything, Shang Ming crackled and said a lot.
Li Li said embarrassedly: "You're going to see your parents?"
When Shang Ming heard that it was Li Li's voice, he couldn't wait to find a hole to get into.
"Uh... Yes, I originally wanted to learn from Brother Feng..."
Li Li knew that Shang Ming was going to see Bai Ge's parents, and he was very happy for them: "Don't worry, seeing your parents is not as terrifying as you think." When you go, bring some gifts that are suitable for the elders, and just sweeten your mouth when you meet. ”
Li Li said that meeting his parents was very simple, but Shang Ming was still very weak-hearted.
There is still a big difference between meeting parents and seeing the famous chairman of the Bai Group.....
Shang Ming didn't want to ask more unexpectedly, so he could only pretend to be calm: "Okay, I know, thank you." ”
After hanging up the phone, Shang Ming drove into a large shopping mall, wanting to quickly choose two gifts inside.
Bai Ge's father should not go wrong by sending some cigarettes, alcohol, tea or something, as for her brother... What should I give?
When Shang Ming was clueless, he suddenly thought of Zhao Qifeng.
These two are the same age, so they probably like similar things, right?
What does Zhao Qifeng like?
Shang Ming thought hard for a long time, he seemed to like racing?
But you can't give someone a race car......
There was no way, Shang Ming asked Zhao Qifeng for help again, and he silently prayed that it must be Zhao Qifeng who answered the phone.
Zhao Qifeng's mobile phone, who was about to come to power, rang again, and Li Li was about to hang up, but was stopped by Zhao Qifeng: "Shang Ming may have something urgent, I'll talk to him about it." ”
Li Li handed the phone to Zhao Qifeng and advised, "Hurry up, it's time for you to appear soon." ”
Zhao Qifeng nodded and immediately connected the phone: "Hey, if you have something to say, time is pressing." ”
Shang Ming was not verbose, and asked straight to the point: "I'm going to Bai Ge's house for the New Year soon, what kind of gift do you think I'll give?"
The answer to this question was at his fingertips, and he roughly said what he had given to Li's mother before: "The last time I sent it was a massager, skin care products... Fruits, anyway, buy all the good things for the elderly, you can't go wrong. ”
It's good to send the elderly, but the key is what is appropriate to send Big Brother Bai?
Shang Ming asked again: "I know to send the old man, the key is to give Bai Ge her eldest brother something?"
This touched Zhao Qifeng's blind spot, and Li Li has no brothers and sisters...
Li Li urged Zhao Qifeng to hurry up with his eyes, and Shang Ming on the phone was also in a hurry: "Or you can tell me what gift you like, and I'll give her brother a copy according to it!"
This question is simple, Zhao Qifeng said without thinking about it: "I like Li Li, I like racing, I like acting, you can choose the gift according to these criteria! I will appear immediately, I won't tell you first!"
Zhao Qifeng hung up the phone ruthlessly, Shang Ming still wanted to ask a few more words, but there was no chance.
He carefully recalled what Zhao Qifeng said, and after comparing what Bai Sheng most needed, Shang Ming finally came to a conclusion: he needed a girlfriend.
Although Shang Ming has no experience in being a matchmaker, he has experienced it.
After Shang Ming finished buying things for Chairman Bai in the mall, he headed towards Bai's house.
The Bai family's mansion is backed by a mountain, and it is a manor built by her father with a huge amount of money, covering a wide area, and there are many beautifully shaped garden landscapes in it.
Bai Ge went up along the winding mountain road, and when he arrived at the Bai family's mansion, the sky was already gray, and he was afraid of being late, so he hurriedly called Bai Ge.
"Bai Ge, I've arrived at the address you said, you wait for me a little!"
At this time, Bai Ge was talking and laughing with his father and brother, and immediately put away his smiling face after receiving Shang Ming's call.
Bai Ge stepped aside, tried his best to lower his voice and said, "Hurry up, my dad and they are all in a hurry!"
The security guard at the door saw Shang Ming's vehicle and let it go directly, and after Shang Ming drove into the manor, he followed the sign to Bai Ge's garage.
Shang Ming parked the car and sent a message to Bai Ge: I'm in the garage, where are you?
Bai Ge knew that Shang Ming had arrived, so he hurriedly explained to his father and brother: "Dad, brother, Shang Ming has arrived, I'll pick him up." ”
Bai Ge raised his feet and was just about to leave, but was stopped by Bai Sheng: "No need, just ask Ah Qiang to go." ”
Ah Qiang, who was not far behind Bai Sheng, gave a try, and the strong, tall, indifferent bodyguard went out.
Bai Ge could only sit back on the European-style leather sofa behind him and continue to pretend to be calm.
Shang Ming didn't wait for Bai Ge at the door of the garage, but waited for a strong man with a cold and murderous aura.
He subconsciously took two steps back and said vigilantly, "You... Are you?"
Ah Qiang did not answer Shang Ming's question, but only said, "Follow me." ”
Shang Ming had no choice but to follow behind Ah Qiang cautiously.
After the two arrived at the main hall of the manor, Cuong stretched out his hand and pointed to the sofa in the center of the living room.
Shang Ming glanced over and saw a middle-aged man with gray hair but a tall figure sitting in the middle of the sofa, this should be Bai Ge's father.
On the sofas on both sides sat Bai Sheng and Bai Ge respectively, both of whom were sitting upright.
It seems that Chairman Bai is a veritable strict father, and Bai Ge, who is usually lawless, has to be serious and unsmiling in front of him.
Shang Ming walked towards the sofa with nervous steps, Bai Ge got up and introduced Shang Ming to his father and brother: "Dad, this is Shang Ming." Brother, you and Shang Ming have seen it, you should be familiar with it, right?"
Bai Sheng replied mercilessly: "Yes, have you healed from the injury last time?"
Shang Ming's face was embarrassed: "Well, okay." ”
Bai Ge knew that her brother did it on purpose, and in order to relieve Shang Ming, she immediately changed the topic: "Eh, Shang Ming, what are you taking?"
