Chapter 61: The Iceberg Begins to Melt
Hu Fengyang's face was solemn.
Lin Xiaotian didn't speak anymore, but just maintained the posture of presenting the pencil case, with a faint smile on his face.
Zhang Lijia watched nervously from the side, and he didn't dare to gasp.
Hu Fengyang looked at the young man opposite, and after considering about five or six breaths, a smile suddenly bloomed on his face, and he stretched out his hands to hold the pencil case.
"Since it's your kindness, then I'll accept it for the time being. ”
When Zhang Lijia heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the matter had progressed to this point, and it was basically completed.
The smile on Lin Xiaotian's face was even bigger.
After Hu Fengyang put away the pen case, he stretched out his hand with a smile and said casually: "Officially know each other again, Hu Fengyang, Gu Yue Hu, the phoenix of the dragon and the phoenix, and the yang of the sun." ”
"Lin Xiaotian, Shuangmu Forest, the dawn of the world, the day of Sunday. Lin Xiaotian shook his hand together.
Hu Fengyang had a smile on his face, and his heart was inexplicably relaxed.
Perhaps in Zhang Lijia's view, it only took him five or six breaths to make a decision, but only he knows how much thought and consideration he put into these five or six breaths.
In a way, it's a big gamble. The stakes are his political career. If the bet is right, maybe it will be a succession in the future, and if the bet is wrong, his career will be over.
In other words, this decision is likely to determine his future fate, and Hu Fengyang cannot be imprudent. In those five or six breaths, he rationally weighed all the pros and cons, but based on his understanding of Lin Xiaotian too little, he automatically gave up after analyzing it.
He recalled that he had asked people to investigate Lin Xiaotian, but found that with his own ability, he couldn't find out any information that Lin Xiaotian had registered in the official register. Combined with today's contact, Hu Fengyang can almost be sure that Lin Xiaotian is definitely not simple. He even had a feeling that if he accepted Lin Xiaotian's friendship, he would have a lot of benefits for himself in the future.
It was precisely under the urging of that feeling that he finally made the decision to accept Lin Xiaotian's friendship.
After reaching a friendship, everyone was much more relaxed when they drank tea again, and many topics could be carried out smoothly.
After the three chatted for about two hours, Hu Fengyang couldn't resist the assistant's repeated phone calls, and left with Zhang Lijia apologetically.
Lin Xiaotian sent them outside the tea ceremony hall, and after seeing them go away, he returned to the fifth box of the Taiji Pavilion again.
In the box, the maid had already cleaned up the leftover tea she had drunk before, and when she saw that he was back, she hurriedly made him a new pot of tea.
Lin Xiaotian smiled at her and expressed his gratitude.
The maid didn't expect him to smile at her, and she was a little flattered.
Lin Xiaotian sat down firmly, and he was immersed in thinking, naturally not noticing the strangeness of the maid.
The matter of the defenders turning into the pearl has been half the success since the "Raiders of the Lost Ark" was staged. Today, I have established a friendship with Hu Fengyang, which can be regarded as a preliminary contact with the government. The rest of the matter, as long as he gives him another direction, can all be handed over to his brothers to do.
After clearing these up, Lin Xiaotian felt a lot more relaxed.
He watched the maid next to him make tea, and then casually observed the decoration and structure of the entire box.
I have to say that the "Tai Chi Tea Ceremony House" itself is quite special.
The entire Tai Chi Pavilion box is cylindrical, and there is no superfluous decoration in the box, everything is simple. A huge Tai Chi pattern is drawn on the pure wood floor, and in the center of the Tai Chi pattern is a Tai Chi diagram-like table, and on the table is the most simple and simple tea set. It really has the charm of simplifying and returning to the basics.
When people are in it, there is a sense of openness in the mysterious world and the ethereal inspiration in front of the dojo, which is very comfortable.
The owner of this tea ceremony house must be a strange person. Lin Xiaotian was more curious about this behind-the-scenes boss in his heart, and at the same time, he also gave birth to more friendships.
"Beauty, your tea-making technique is so beautiful, have you been specially trained?" he thought for a moment, and then decided to talk about the tone from the maid in front of him.
The maid was stunned, and then flattered and said: "Yes, all the maids in our tea ceremony hall have been specially trained, temperament training, etiquette training, and the most important tea ceremony training. ”
"How long will it take to complete the whole training?" Lin Xiaotian felt that the maid's performance was a little too enthusiastic, and he was slightly surprised. He had no idea how uneasy the maid was in her heart.
There is a clear rule in the Tai Chi Tea Ceremony Pavilion that different levels of maids are responsible for serving guests in different levels of private rooms. In other words, the maid in front of Lin Xiaotian is specifically responsible for serving department-level cadres or billionaires with assets of tens of billions. And those people are all above the top, and every time they come here, they almost ignore the inconsequential characters such as the maids.
Like Lin Xiaotian, a distinguished guest who took the initiative to smile at the maid and chatted with her, it was the first time she had seen her, and it was strange that she was not flattered.
The maid stopped pouring tea and said respectfully: "The whole set of training will take a total of two years. However, our boss is very good, not only will not help us pay expensive training fees during the training, but also will give us a certain amount of subsidies. ”
"Hearing you say that, I really want to make friends with your boss. Lin Xiaotian said with a smile.
A hint of regret flashed in the maid's eyes, "I'm afraid it's difficult, so far, no one in our entire tea ceremony hall has ever seen the boss." No one even knows whether the person in charge of the tea ceremony hall is on the surface, or even whether the boss is a man or a woman. ”
"Your boss is so mysterious?" Lin Xiaotian still had a smile on his face, but he secretly thought about it in his heart.
The owner of this tea ceremony restaurant can do such a good job of secrecy, which means that he must also be a figure with all means, and if he can make friends, it will definitely be of considerable benefit to the defenders in the future to gain a foothold in Mingzhu. But since that guy made himself so mysterious, it also means that he doesn't want to be exposed, and if he wants to find him, he can't explore it through unconventional means, otherwise it will easily cause others to be disgusted.
The maid smiled slightly and said casually, "Many people say so." ”
Lin Xiaotian smiled at her, and after chatting for a while, he left the tea ceremony house.
He didn't know that when he walked out of the tea hall, in a special room in the Tai Chi tea hall, a young woman wearing a Taoist robe sat cross-legged on the floor, silently observing his every move through the surveillance screen.
The woman's eyes were like autumn water, her expression was flat, and it wasn't until Lin Xiaotian's back disappeared that she made a dream-like voice, "Lin Xiaotian, don't let me down." ”
After leaving the Taiji Tea Ceremony House, Lin Xiaotian simply ate something and hurried to Pearl University.
After all, Tang Mingyue spent a lot of money to hire him as a personal bodyguard, and he accepted other people's money, so he couldn't help but do something. Besides, life in Pearl University is also very easy, and there are two beautiful women to accompany you, so it's really unreasonable not to enjoy more.
When they arrived at Pearl University, the students were all returning from school for their lunch break. The campus was a lot empty and quiet, and Lin Xiaotian found Tang Mingyue's office with ease.
Tang Mingyue is still quite serious at work, and she is still busy during her lunch break.
Lin Xiaotian looked a little distressed, and his knock on the office door was extremely gentle
"Come in. Tang Mingyue didn't raise her head.
Lin Xiaotian pushed open the door and went in, and said softly: "Mingyue, why don't you rest at noon." ”
Tang Mingyue stopped working and looked up at him.
"You still know how to come back?"
Lin Xiaotian was a little embarrassed, and said with a dry smile: "There were some important things last night, so I didn't have time to tell you." ”
"Do you know who you are now?" Tang Mingyue asked with a straight face.
Lin Xiaotian nodded, "I know, I'm Mingyue's personal bodyguard." ”
"Yes, you are now my personal bodyguard, and you are also the kind of bodyguard who has signed a long-term deed of sale with me!" Tang Mingyue was a little angry, "But have you fulfilled your responsibilities as a bodyguard, you neglected your duties on the first day of formal work, and you don't return at night." Aren't you afraid that the two girls and me and Ziqing will be in danger at home!"
"Mingyue, don't be angry yet. Lin Xiaotian appeased.
Tang Mingyue glared at him and asked, "Don't be angry, why don't you let me be angry." I just moved in and didn't go home at night for a day, how could there be someone like you!"
Lin Xiaotian felt that there was something wrong with this, and said weakly: "Mingyue, why does your words taste sour...... Won't it ...... You're jealous, aren't you?"
"Who...... Who eats your vinegar. Tang Mingyue actually stammered a little when she spoke.
Seeing this, Lin Xiaotian raised a slightly strange smile on the corner of his mouth, "Mingyue, you shouldn't really like me." ”
"I don't have time to talk nonsense with you, I still have to work. Tang Mingyue simply didn't bother to pay attention to him.
Lin Xiaotian smiled, took out a delicate jewelry box from his arms like a trick, and sent it to her: "Haha, I won't tease you." This one is for you, happy birthday!"
"How do you know it's my birthday?" Tang Mingyue raised her head in surprise.
Lin Xiaotian smiled, "I naturally have my own way, open it first and see if you like this gift or not." ”
Tang Mingyue held up the jewelry box and opened it carefully.
"'Mingyue'! Wasn't this piece of jewelry taken away by Zhao Qilong, how could it be in your hands?" Tang Mingyue's eyes were full of surprise and puzzlement.
Lin Xiaotian smiled, "It was indeed him before, but I know you like this thing, and you have been following him for the past few days, crying, making trouble and hanging yourself, and finally moved him to give me this jewelry." ”
Tang Mingyue knew Zhao Qilong's personality and knew how difficult it was to take things away from him, but now that he heard Lin Xiaotian say it so lightly, he felt that he must have spent a lot of thought, and his heart was extremely moved.
"Thank you. Her voice was extraordinarily gentle.
"Silly, tell me what to say thank you or not. Lin Xiaotian smiled, carefully took out the jewelry, walked behind her, and said softly: "I'll help you put it on, it must be beautiful." ”
Tang Mingyue didn't refuse, and after humming softly, she sat up straight with a tender face, waiting for Lin Xiaotian to wear the "Mingyue" for herself.
