Chapter 37: Each Bears a Ghost (Part I)
After Qin Feng finished speaking, after a short silence at the scene, Tang Yuntao stood up with a smile, walked towards the stage, and applauded as he walked: "Okay, very good, Qin Feng Xiaoyou is really a genius, young and promising." Since Qin Feng Xiaoyou has concluded that this book is fake, I wonder if Qin Feng Xiaoyou can take out the real book and show it to us?"
Qin Feng said with a wry smile: "Mr. Tang, I'm very sorry, although this book does belong to my family, but about five or six years ago, this book was borrowed from my mother by a friend in Yanjing City, and it has not been returned yet. If you want to read it, it's not impossible, and when I have time, I can get the book back.
Of course, what I just said is just a family's words, not a final conclusion, and you can express your own insights. β
After Qin Feng finished speaking, he turned around and was about to step down, Tang Yuntao said with a smile: "Qin Feng, little friend, please stay." β
Qin Feng turned around and looked at Tang Yuntao in confusion.
Tang Yuntao walked up to Qin Feng with this high-imitation version of Master Hanshan's annotated version of the Tao Te Ching, handed it to Qin Feng with a smile and said, "Since Mr. Cao has made it clear that he wants to give you this book just now, then this book belongs to you now."
Personally, I believe that Qin Feng's little brother's appreciation result is correct, so since this book is fake, then the money from the auction just now naturally can't be paid by Mr. Cao, so the 15 million I Xiangyun Group came out, which can be regarded as a little contribution we have made to our charity in Hexi Province. β
The scene immediately burst into warm applause. Everyone has to admire Tang Yuntao's wealth.
At this time, the host walked on the stage and said loudly: "Gentlemen, girls, please enjoy a lively dance, after the dance, it is the birthday banquet of Ms. Tang Feifei, President of Xiangyun Group, let us look forward to it." β
The music slowly sounded, and more than a dozen young and beautiful ponytail girls in miniskirts walked onto the stage, and the energetic singing and dancing officially began.
At this moment, Xue Zhenqiang looked at Tang Yuntao's calm and calm face when he walked down, his brows furrowed slightly, and he secretly pondered: "Today's auction is not quite right. Although Tang Yuntao is very rich, but his style is not so atmospheric, this is 15 million, even for him, this 15 million is not a small amount, how can it be said that he will take it out? And I see that this old guy not only does not have the slightest trace of pain on his face because of the loss of 15 million, on the contrary, looking at his expression, there is still a trace of ambition in his eyes, is this old guy also coveted the treasures of the Yuan Dynasty involved in the ancient books of the Tao Te Ching? But the problem is, very few people know about this matter, how can this old boy know?
It stands to reason that he shouldn't have known, but if he didn't, how could he possibly put such a book up for auction?"
Suddenly, Xue Zhenqiang's eyes showed a hint of horror, he slapped his thigh with some remorse, gritted his teeth and said, "It's bad, it's bad, it's the old fox Tang Yuntao." Before, Huang Futai and I were bidding frantically for this book, and I'm afraid that we just happened to have this book in our hands or know the treasure related to this book!"
Thinking of this, Xue Zhenqiang glanced at Tang Yuntao with angry eyes, and there was a little more jealousy in his eyes.
In this way, in the future, he will have to guard against Tang Yuntao, this old fox loves to make money the most, if he is eyeing this treasure, I am afraid that the Xue Group or himself will have a lot of trouble in the future.
However, when his eyes fell on Qin Feng not far away, his eyes lit up, and he could hear from Qin Feng's words just now that Qin Feng must have the genuine "Tao Te Ching" in his hand, although Qin Feng said that the book was lent out, and especially if it was lent to a friend in Yanjing City, Xue Zhenqiang was a suspicious person by nature, and he didn't believe Qin Feng's words.
Xue Zhenqiang's eyes narrowed, and he secretly said in his heart: "If Qin Feng has that book in his hand, then he can definitely get close to the water and get the moon first, because now Qin Feng is a staff member of their Xue Group, and this convenience is not available to others at all." But thinking about Tang Yuntao's old fox and Huangfutai's sinister young man, he must not let his guard down, they will definitely target Qin Feng in the future, and he must find a way to get the true copy of the Tao Te Ching in Qin Feng's hands before them!"
Thinking of this, Xue Zhenqiang immediately took out his mobile phone and dialed his daughter Xue Jiahui's phone: "Jiahui, come to the VIP lounge immediately, my father has something important to talk to you." β
Xue Jiahui received a call from her father, and although she was a little reluctant, she still stood up and walked towards the VIP room.
After the father and daughter entered the conference room, Xue Zhenqiang immediately closed the door and said a little anxiously: "Jiahui, your father and Qin Feng's matter have agreed, you don't have to worry about the trouble on the Huangfu family's side, Dad, I will take it down for you." From now on, you can find a way to chase Qin Feng into your hands. β
When Xue Jiahui heard this, she was blindsided at the time, but she reacted quickly, stared at Xue Zhenqiang with a sudden realization and said, "Dad, should you let me use the beauty trick to find a way to help you get the true copy of the Tao Te Ching in Qin Feng's hand?"
Xue Zhenqiang's old face flushed, and he said with some embarrassment: "It's not that serious, I know you like Qin Feng, Qin Feng is also angry for you today, and directly slapped Huangfu Tai in the face, offending the entire Huangfu family, Qin Feng's performance today is enough for men, and I also appreciate it, so I have no reason to object to you being together! Dad, this is also for your happiness!"
Xue Jiahui snorted and said: "Come on, Dad, I don't know what your temper is, I'm afraid that what you have in your old man's eyes is only family honor, the development of the family business and making money, if you really care about my happiness, how can you let me marry Huangfutai today? I'm afraid that behind this marriage, is it also related to the ancient book "Tao Te Ching"?
Hmph, do you really think I'm stupid? Whether it's you or the Huangfu family, any of you really care about my happiness, you only care about your own interests!"
Speaking of this, Xue Jiahui's eyes turned a little red.
Xue Zhenqiang saw that his daughter was sad, and hurriedly reached out to hug his daughter's shoulder and said: "Jiahui, Dad knows that I didn't do it right before, but you know, your mother left early, it was Dad and I pulled you up with a handful of shit and urine, although I have my own little abacus, but, you know, Dad, I only have an only daughter like you, no matter how big my career is, no matter how much money I make, all my property will eventually be left to you, so, what Dad hopes most is that you can be happy."
Since you would rather resist marriage in public today than pursue your own happiness, is it necessary for Dad to force you to do things you don't like? So, from now on, you can rest assured and boldly be with Qin Feng, Dad supports you!"
At the end, Xue Zhenqiang added: "Of course, if you can give the book in Qin Feng's hand to Dad, Dad, will be even happier." β
When Xue Jiahui heard this, tears fell from the corners of her eyes, and she said in a choked voice: "Dad, I'm afraid you're going to miscalculate this time." The person Qin Feng likes is not me, but Tang Feifei!"
"Qin Feng, this kid likes Tang Feifei, aren't you kidding? If he likes him Tang Feifei, how could he offend Huangfu Tai and the Huangfu family for you?" Xue Zhenqiang's face was full of shock.
Xue Jiahui smiled miserably and said: "Dad, you may not know, Qin Feng fell in love with Tang Feifei at first sight when Tang Feifei went to our school to give a speech a few years ago, and he returned to our Bei'an City after disappearing for a few years, in order to pursue Tang Feifei, and today, he is going to dance the first dance with Tang Feifei!"
After Xue Jiahui finished speaking, Xue Zhenqiang immediately raised his hand and said, "Wait, I listen to you, the current situation is that you like Qin Feng, but Qin Feng likes Tang Feifei, so how does Tang Feifei treat Qin Feng?"
Xue Jiahui said: "If my guess is right, I'm afraid Tang Feifei doesn't know Qin Feng at all." β
Xue Zhenqiang immediately slapped his thigh and said, "Okay, that's good, as long as Tang Feifei doesn't have any feelings for Qin Feng, then the chances of you being together will be very high." Isn't it well said as the old saying goes, men chase women, separated mountains, women chase men, and layers of yarn. There is also a saying that a strong woman is afraid of pestering a man, then the reverse is also true, a strong man is afraid of pestering a woman! As long as you entangle Qin Feng with your gentleness, Qin Feng will definitely not be able to run out of the palm of your hand. β
After Xue Jiahui listened to her father's words, she was directly angry, she really didn't expect that her father's attitude towards herself would be reversed by a hundred and eighty degrees.
Just when the Xue father and daughter were muttering here, Jiang Wenchao had already taken Duan Meijuan to Qin Feng's table and sat down.
Jiang Wenchao sneered at Qin Feng and said, "Qin Feng, when this song and dance performance is over, it's time for today's main event, didn't you swear before that you would definitely be able to dance the first dance with Tang Feifei today? Duan Meijuan and I will sit in the closest place to you today and wait, look, you shouldn't have forgotten the agreement between us, right?"
Qin Feng couldn't help but look a little ugly when he saw Jiang Wenchao appear in front of him like an annoying fly.
To be honest, he really didn't want to agree to Jiang Wenchao at the beginning, after all, for Tang Feifei, he was just unrequited love for her, and Tang Feifei didn't know him at all, so it was impossible for Tang Feifei to invite herself to dance the first dance with her.
What's more, all the guests present today know that whoever dances with Tang Feifei for the first time means that Tang Feifei is very likely to be interested in this person, and this person is likely to become the future son-in-law of the Tang family in the future, and he can directly rise to prominence.
This is also the reason why so many handsome and handsome boys came today, because everyone knows that Tang Feifei's birthday banquet today is likely to become a scene for Tang Feifei's husband selection, so all the bigwigs who can receive the invitation will bring their most proud protΓ©gΓ©s or family children to the scene, hoping to have the opportunity to win Tang Feifei's favor, after all, Tang Feifei is not only outstanding in personal ability, but also has strong financial resources, and the most important thing is that Tang Feifei is Tang Yuntao's only daughter, if anyone marries Tang Feifei, it means that he has obtained the huge Xiangyun Groupγ
Jiang Wenchao saw the hesitation and anxiety on Qin Feng's face, the smile on his face became even stronger, and he continued to provoke: "Qin Feng, what's the matter, you shouldn't break your word, right? If that's the case, I really want to look down on you." β
At this time, Xue Jiahui's voice came from behind Jiang Wenchao: "Jiang Wenchao, who said that Qin Feng was going to break his promise, don't worry, the bet between you continues, as long as Qin Feng can get Tang Feifei to invite him to dance the first dance today, then you have to slap yourself three big mouths in front of everyone today, and shout 5 times at the same time I Jiang Wenchao is a big idiot!"
Jiang Wenchao sneered and said, "Then what if Qin Feng loses?"
Qin Feng immediately sneered and said, "If I lose, I'm willing to leave the Xue Group!"
Jiang Wenchao smiled proudly: "Of course I'm satisfied!Qin Feng, I'll just sit here and wait to see your jokes!"
Qin Feng stood up disdainfully and walked out.
Jiang Wenchao pursed his lips and asked, "Where are you going?"
Qin Feng said: "Of course I'm going to find Tang Feifei, are you sitting here waiting for Tang Feifei to call my name, he doesn't even know who I am, I can't go to public relations!"
Jiang Wenchao's eyes widened suddenly, and he said with a stunned eye: "I'm grass, what you said can't be true, right? Tang Feifei actually doesn't know you?"
Qin Feng said: "Then what do you think?"
Jiang Wenchao directly gave a thumbs up and said: "Qin Feng, you are awesome, I am convinced, just like this, you still dare to bet with me, you are simply a horse who doesn't know how long your face is!
Qin Feng smiled: "I am willing!" After speaking, Qin Feng turned around and left.
Xue Jiahui left with Qin Feng.
After taking a few steps, Xue Jiahui asked, "Qin Feng, are you really going to find Tang Feifei?"
Qin Feng smiled bitterly and said, "Otherwise, are you still waiting for the pie to fall from the sky?"
Xue Jiahui shook her head and said, "Qin Feng, it's definitely not okay for you to go directly like this, I know Tang Feifei's woman too well, it is absolutely impossible for her to accommodate herself for the sake of others." She is quite a selfish person! This is also the reason why she was able to become the president of Xiangyun Group at such a young age! Of course, I am not saying this to provoke the relationship between you and her, I am just telling the truth, just for your reference. β
Qin Feng suddenly had a headache. If what Xue Jiahui said was true, then he would not be able to convince Tang Feifei to dance the first dance with him today no matter what. After all, the meaning of this first dance is so important!
