Chapter 138: Substitute Drinking

On the grand entrance of the lobby of Hollywood Hotel, the long LED display screen is scrolling to display "Warmly welcome all the students of the third (2) class of Fengcheng 182 high school who participated in the 20th anniversary of graduation". Please search () to see the most complete!The fastest update!Lin Qiang said in his heart, Ma Daqiang is really capable, and he can actually let the hotel play a welcome slogan, and it is different to have real power in his hands.

"Lin Qiang, you've finally arrived, come and sign in. As soon as Lin Qiang walked into the lobby, he saw several tables and chairs on the right side of the door, several people gathered there, and Wu Xiaoming was greeting him.

The few students who were signing in also turned their heads when they heard the voice, and Lin Qiang hurriedly walked forward and shook hands with everyone to say hello. I haven't seen each other for more than ten years, and I am a little strange to each other, but after all, I have been studying together for three years, and Lin Qiang quickly connected the few classmates in front of him with the memories of when he was studying, and accurately called out their names.

"Lin Qiang, you haven't changed much, you are still as chic and beautiful as Gao Shi. Li Qiuhuan took Lin Qiang's hand and said. After graduating from the teacher college, he returned to his hometown of Heyun Town to teach, and is now the vice principal of Heyun School.

Lin Qiang was very popular in school back then, and not long ago he organized a small party for his classmates in Guangzhou, and the photos of the party were transmitted to the class, so the classmates were no strangers to him. After greeting everyone with a smile, he signed his name in the signature book, and saw that the book next to him registered the money donated voluntarily by his classmates, so he also took out his wallet.

This time, because of the strong support and sponsorship of Hu Qi and Ma Daqiang, the organizing committee did not require individuals to pay the party fees, but only donated money on a voluntary basis. Lin Qiang saw that most of the students who signed in first donated 300 or 500, and after thinking about it, he donated 1,000 yuan.

"By the way, Qiu Huan, you guys come with me to the car and bring in some souvenirs. Lin Qiang led a few classmates to the parking lot and brought in the colorful souvenirs.

There are two kinds of souvenirs, one is specially given to the teachers, the face is carved with "Teacher's Grace is unforgettable", and the other is for the students, carved with "deep love of classmates", with exquisite patterns and the time and place of the party, etc., as well as high-end wooden bracket packaging, which looks beautiful and everyone loves it.

Secretary Yan walked down the stairs from the second floor, "Lin Qiang, everyone is waiting for you in the banquet hall, hurry up." And asked the students to carry the souvenirs.

In the banquet hall, there were already many students, everyone was chatting excitedly around a large round table, Ma Daqiang and Hu Qi sat in the middle of the room, talking, there was a feeling of stars and moons.

Seeing Lin Qiang walk in, everyone greeted him one after another.

"I'm sorry, there was a bit of a delay at noon, I was late, but fortunately I wasn't late. Lin Qiang responded to everyone with a smile and found a place to sit down.

"Lin Qiang, you're not positive enough this time. Ma Daqiang picked up the soft decoration in front of him, threw a cigarette to Lin Qiang across the table, and said with a smile.

"With you and Qi coming forward this time, I can be lazy. Lin Qiang said with a smile.

"I haven't seen you back to Fengcheng for many years, how about it? Are you still making building materials? You should have made a lot of money over the years, right?" asked Hu Qi.

Lin Qiang smiled and said, "I still do a small business related to building materials in Guangzhou." I can't follow you, I'm a small fight, but you're a big boss, a successful person of our classmates, so I have to learn from you. ”

Hu Qi waved his hand casually, "I heard that Xie Ju also came out to start his own business?"

"Yes, Xie Ju is now a big boss, I heard his junior classmates say that he opened a big garment factory in Haizhu District, and he tried to contact him during the class reunion in Guangzhou, but he said through his classmates that he was not interested in attending the party, maybe he looked down on us poor classmates. Lin Qiang said.

"Hmph, isn't it great to be rich?" Ma Daqiang said disdainfully: "We are rich enough, and we are not very enthusiastic about sponsoring the party this time, everyone says yes?"

Everyone nodded in response, and said a lot of compliments to Hu Qi.

Shrimp said: "This time, it is all thanks to the strong support of our Director Ma and Boss Hu, so that we can hold a class reunion in such a high-end place, and Lin Qiang also prepared exquisite gifts for every student and teacher who participated in the party, and I would like to express my gratitude to you on behalf of the organizing committee and students." ”

Hu Qi and Ma Daqiang were modest, but their faces looked very frustrated. Lin Qiang only smiled slightly.

With a burst of hearty laughter, a large group of students walked into the banquet hall, and I saw Shibo leading the way, with seven or eight male and female students. Zhou Jie, the commander of the four golden flowers, and Chen Chufang were also there.

"Feng Ju, you still have face, and the female classmates are all following you. Ma Daqiang quipped. Shi Bo is now the deputy director of the urban tax bureau, and the two of them are the best mixed in officialdom among their classmates.

Shibo was also very familiar with the hotel, but since Ma Daqiang came forward, he didn't have to bother, "How can I have a horse and Boss Hu to have face? Before speaking, he patted Lin Qiang, "Lin Qiang, you are also early?"

Lin Qiang stood up, patted Shi Bo back, nodded at him, and then greeted the commanders: "Why are there only you three golden flowers?

Fang Fang glared at him and said, "It's okay to say, as the convener of Guangzhou, you don't go all out to greet you, Beijianghe is going to Panyu's Relationship Hospital today for consultation, and said that if you get off work too late, you will rush over." ”

Zhou Jie wore a pale pink silk gauze skirt today, with a light purple round-necked gauze, revealing a snow-white neck and collarbone, simple and elegant, her delicate face was thinly powdered, and the faint flush on her cheeks made her look elegant and gentle. She took Jun's hand and smiled at Lin Qiang, "When did you arrive in Fengcheng?"

Lin Qiang led them to the empty table next to them and sat down, poured tea for them, and said, "I arrived in Fengcheng yesterday, military commander, you came from Shenzhen today?

"There are two classmates in Shenzhen, Ah Gun and Li Jianbin, and I came here with them. "The commander is still dressed as a happy single nobleman.

Secretary Yan has arranged for the students who have cars to pick up the teachers one after another. The teachers have retired, the head teacher Chen Yu and his lover Wu attended together, the mathematics teacher Zhu Baojie has been close to the old, full of white hair, he took the lead in founding Fengcheng Overseas Chinese Studies, and re-elected as the principal for many years, many students who graduated from the normal school in the class were recruited by him into the Overseas Chinese Studies, it, Chen Jianxiong was the first to enter after graduating from the teacher college for two years, down-to-earth and obedient, very appreciated by Principal Zhu, and soon became the secretary of the school's Youth League Committee, and later Secretary Yan also entered the Overseas Chinese Studies after graduating from the normal bachelor's degree, Chen Jianxiong because he was one step ahead, occupied a good position, and made others red for a while。

Chan Chien-shiung was soon promoted to the head of the Academic Affairs Office, but unfortunately he was fired from public office three years ago due to financial problems, and President Chu was full of regret when he mentioned him many times later. Secretary Yan said that Chen is now unemployed, and he is embarrassed to attend the class reunion this time.

The whole party was presided over by Secretary Yan, and after the students arrived, Secretary Yan made a simple opening speech, invited the teachers to speak, and asked Wu Xiaoming to send the souvenirs brought by Lin Qiang to everyone, and the sumptuous dinner officially began.

Lin Qiang sat next to Zhou Jie, the two whispered from time to time, and the military commander was also very interested in chatting with Fangfang and not disturbing the two of them.

"When will you go back tomorrow?" asked Lin Qiang.

"It should be in the afternoon, and my mother will go back with me. Zhou Jie said.

"I really haven't seen your mom in years. I've come by car, and I'll take you back tomorrow. ”

Zhou Jie glanced at him and whispered, "Thank you, I have already asked my brother to book a ticket for tomorrow afternoon." ”

"Oh---, your brother is still in the firefighting business?"

"Yes. Zhou Jie picked up the commemorative plaque and asked, "Is this made in your factory?"

Lin Qiang smiled and said, "Yes, how is the process?"

"Yes, it's beautiful. Your factory is mainly engaged in this kind of process, and the business is okay. ”

"It's okay. By the way, you haven't told me how you know my license plate. ”

"Have you eaten at the famous seafood restaurant opposite the Overseas Chinese Hotel in Zhuhai?" asked Zhou Jie.

Lin Qiang remembered that the first time he went to Zhuhai, he went to Qian Xiaogang's villa construction site with Cao Xu, Qian Xiaogang's Wanghai Real Estate Company near the famous seafood restaurant, and Lin Qiang was invited there that afternoon, it turned out that it was really so coincidental that Zhou Jie actually saw herself there.

"Is your company also nearby?" asked Lin Qiang.

Zhou Jie nodded, "Our company is in the Mingmen Building." I was also having dinner at the restaurant with my client that day, and when I came out, I saw that you had just driven away. ”

"It was a business discussion with a few friends, and it was also my first time in Zhuhai. ”

"You didn't call me when you came to Zhuhai?" Zhou Jie glanced at her and said.

Lin Qiang smiled a little embarrassedly, "I, I didn't dare to disturb you at that time, and besides, I didn't know your mobile phone number at that time." Our company has a renovation project on the side of Baiteng Lake, and it has been in the construction site for a month, and it is indispensable to run there in the future, and then I will go to you, okay?"

Before Zhou Jie could answer, she saw Secretary Yan, Ma Daqiang, and Hu Qi walking over with wine glasses.

"Come, come, everybody fills up, the men drink white wine, and the ladies drink red wine. Ma Daqiang held his belly, which was already slightly blessed, raised his wine glass and said loudly, and deliberately walked to Lin Qiang's side and patted him on the shoulder, "Lin Qiang, you are not interesting enough, you patronize and whisper to us Zhou Zhou, and you don't take the lead in beckoning everyone to drink." ”

Lin Qiang hurriedly explained that he really couldn't drink, but Hu Qi couldn't help but pour him a small glass of Feixia liquid first, and said: "This is the best liquor in our Fengcheng, it's not bad, Lin Qiang, you have to have a toast with everyone, right?"

Lin Qiang saw that he couldn't get rid of it, so he had to take the wine glass up, touch the glass with everyone one by one, and saw that everyone had dried up the wine in one gulp, and he originally wanted to drink a small sip of the meaning, but everyone didn't follow him, and coaxed together, Lin Qiang had no choice but to grit his teeth, raise his head and dry the wine, and repeatedly stated that this was already his limit, and he would fall down if he drank it again.

Over there, Ma Daqiang had already refilled everyone with wine, "Three glasses per person, only more, not less, this is the rule set by our strict secretary, and no one is allowed to pay for it." Lin Qiang, unless you can find Zhou Zhou to drink on your behalf, otherwise, you have to drink three glasses of wine when you fall, the classmates said right?"

Everyone looked at Lin Qiang and Zhou Jie, and they all said yes in unison.

Zhou Jie saw that Lin Qiang really couldn't drink it, and when the small glass of wine was down, her face turned purple, and she said quietly: "After drinking three glasses, can you be free?"

"Of course, if Zhou Zhou feels that it is not enough fun, I will respect you alone. Hu Qi said boldly: "Is this good, Zhou Zhou, you drink a glass of red wine, and I drink two glasses of white wine, how about it?"

Lin Qiang had heard Zhou Jie say that he had a good amount of alcohol, but he didn't want her to drink too much, just wanted to speak, but Zhou Jie secretly pulled him and picked up the liquor in front of him, "I'll help him drink the remaining two glasses of liquor first." In the surprise of everyone, he dried the wine very chicly, and stretched out the empty wine glass in front of Ma Daqiang, let him fill it, and then dried it in one gulp.

Before everyone came to their senses, Zhou Jie picked up her red wine glass again and said, "Secretary, we can make a second glass now, right?"

Ma Daqiang didn't expect that he was joking, Zhou Jie really drank two glasses on behalf of Lin Qiang, and after being surprised, he took the lead in applauding. And Hu Qi didn't expect Zhou Jie to drink wine, he was still bold, the words he invited her to drink just now may have been too much, and he couldn't figure out tonight.
