Chapter 44: The Ling Family Hanqing
Bai Qinghe's arrival was just a small episode of everyone's gathering, and it did not affect the interest of Li Jingwei and others. A few people chatted happily.
Obviously, it's not appropriate to talk about work on this occasion, because no one knows if there are cameras, bugging devices, etc. Matters related to the company's core secrets, such as the discussion of the company's three important strategic projects in the afternoon, even Zhao Yici's personal secretary could not participate.
The long-term joint entrepreneurship and common struggle have allowed several people to form a deep friendship, which is no less than the fateful friendship formed in the rain of bullets. For several people, Jiexun is like a child raised by everyone together, and has paid countless efforts, and naturally hopes that the child can grow up and become a talent.
We chatted while eating until 10 p.m. When walking through the hall of the main building of the Maple Leaf Club, Zhao Yici also met an 'old acquaintance', who was Zhao Yici's suitor Ling Hanqing.
As one of the five major families in Kyoto, the Ling family has always had a close relationship with the Zhao family. As two political families, the two families have cooperation and competition.
Ling Hanqing is one of the leading figures of the third generation of the Ling family, and unlike other people in the family who have mainly developed in politics, he has developed mainly in the military. In his early years, he served in a Marine Corps Special Operations Brigade in China, and led the team to participate in the International Marine Corps Competition, winning 10 championships in 12 competitions and 3 individual championships. Ling Hanqing has carried out secret missions many times, and because of his bravery, he is known as the "King of Bully". Currently, he serves in the Kyoto Garrison.
"Yici, what a coincidence! Come here today to talk about business?" Ling Hanqing got up from the sofa in the leisure area on the left side of the hall, and walked quickly towards Zhao Yici as he spoke. "But it's rare to see you here. β
"Ling Hanqing, hello!" Of course, Zhao Yici would not be naΓ―ve to think that this was a coincidence, because judging from the position where Ling Hanqing stood up just now, he should have been sitting on the sofa with his back on his back, and he didn't speak just now, so it was impossible to identify himself from the voice. Then, there is only one possibility left, this Ling Hanqing is waiting for him to come out, and as soon as he comes out, someone has already told him.
Zhao Yici wasn't sure whether Ling Hanqing knew that he had come to eat and came here, or if he originally ate here, but later knew that he was also eating here, and deliberately waited here. However, although there are a lot of things about Ling Hanqing, it is not bad in nature, so he responded politely.
Originally, the Ling and Zhao families also intended to match the two. Although the two have competition, they have no bad relations, and it can even be said that they cooperate more than they compete. In this case, the marriage of the two families obviously helps to further consolidate the foundation of cooperation.
It is precisely because of the support of his family that Ling Hanqing also persevered in pursuing Zhao Yici, and he had never done anything to send roses before. It wasn't until Zhao Yici announced, 'If you want to chase me, you must first earn more than me', that he died down for a while. However, the attention to Zhao Yici has never decreased by one point.
"I came over today to have dinner with friends. Ling Hanqing said, "I was transferred back to the capital some time ago. No, a few comrades-in-arms came over to do something, and by the way, look at me, let's get together together. You're also coming over for dinner with friends?"
Ling Hanqing said, his eyes swept towards Li Jingwei and the others.
"Yes. Zhao Yici didn't plan to say anything, "It's not too early, I have to send a few friends back." See you later. β
Zhao Yici and Ling Hanqing don't have much friendship, and they are very independent people in their bones, and they don't look down on the so-called second generation who rely on their father's shadow, let alone have deep friendships. The same is true for Ling Hanqing, nodding his head.
As everyone knows, this Ling Hanqing didn't know what illness he was committing today, so he didn't wait for Zhao Yici to take a step, stepped forward and took the initiative to hold Pan Liwei's hand, and said: "This is the president of Jiexun Company, who is young and promising, and has been admired for a long time." β
Pan Liwei was also stunned, he didn't know how the other party knew him, but he didn't want to slack off, and responded: "Hello Mr. Ling! β
He also saw that Zhao Yici didn't seem to want to talk to Ling Hanqing more, so he also greeted politely, without the intention of chatting deeply.
Ling Hanqing also greeted Dai Yuping and Lu Daocheng again, and when it was Li Jingwei's turn, he turned his head to Zhao Yici and asked, "Who is this?"
Although Li Jingwei doesn't like mundane things, he is not ignorant of the world, so far he knows that this Ling Hanqing is coming for him, although he is puzzled, he still holds the other party's outstretched hand and smiles: "Li Jingwei." Hello!"
After shaking it, Li Jingwei was about to withdraw his hand, when suddenly a force came from the other party's hand, and he couldn't help frowning slightly.
Because, in terms of such strength, although the average person will not break a bone, I am afraid that it will also make the hand swollen for a few days. It stands to reason that he has no grievances with him, and he should not be so ruthless. However, he was already in a peaceful state of mind, and the other party knew Zhao Yici again, so he didn't say much, and the power of Tai Chi was running at the moment, removing the power from the other party's palm.
Ling Hanqing was also a little strange when he saw that Li Jingwei's face did not change. He had already exerted 4 points of strength, and it stands to reason that ordinary people would already jump in pain. He even thought of the words he was going to use to explain, but he didn't expect this Li Jingwei to seem to have no feelings.
was about to exert force, but he didn't think that Li Jingwei had already withdrawn his hand. This suddenly shocked him, he didn't expect the other party to be able to quietly withdraw his hand from his clenched hand, and he couldn't control it at all. Could it be that I was distracted and negligent just now?
The rumors about Zhao Yici and Li Jingwei in the Jiexun company reached Ling Hanqing's ears in the afternoon, and he was very curious about this rumored guy who had successfully ascended to the position, and he also wanted Li Jingwei to make a fool of himself here, so he had the handshake just now. Unfortunately, it didn't work out.
Ling Hanqing was unwilling to give up this opportunity, and immediately took a step forward, stretched out his hand to put his arm around Li Jingwei's shoulder, and said, "Brother Li and I hit it off at first sight, so it's better to meet by chance." Invite Brother Li to enjoy his face and have a cup of tea together. β
Zhao Yici also came back to his senses at this time, and realized that Ling Hanqing was trying to find trouble with Li Jingwei. She immediately turned her face and said sharply, "Ling Hanqing, let go of your dirty paws." β
Li Jingwei knew that Zhao Yici was worried about herself, but she didn't want her to have a bad relationship with Ling Hanqing because of this. After all, he didn't know the details of the other party, and he didn't know what medicine the other party bought in the gourd. So, he smiled at Zhao Yici and said, "It's okay, it's just a cup of tea." β
Several people came to the leisure area and sat down, Ling Hanqing turned to a middle-aged man sitting farther away and said, "Uncle Leng, Yici and Brother Li are distinguished guests, please make a good pot of tea by yourself." Subsequently, he said to Li Jingwei, "Uncle Leng is a master of the tea ceremony, and he has been fond of tea all his life, so please ask Brother Li to taste it." β
This middle-aged man surnamed Leng is indeed a master of the tea ceremony, making tea is like flowing water, his expression is solemn and solemn, and he is simple and natural. After dividing the tea, Uncle Leng personally picked up a cup of tea and brought it to Li Jingwei. "Mr. Li, please use tea. β
Li Jingwei took the tea cup, appreciated the tea, smelled the tea, and then drank it all. Savor it carefully for a while, and then said, "Good tea!" Mr. Leng, can you refill another cup of tea for me?"
Uncle Leng's original name was Leng Bai, and he acted ruthlessly in his early years, nicknamed "Leng Impermanence", and had a lot of lives on his hands. Later, he was chased and killed by the enemy and rescued by the old man Bai in the Northeast. After Bai Qinghe opened this club, he was sent to protect Bai Qinghe.
At this time, Leng Bai's heart had set off a storm. He was instructed by Sun Manhong to assist Ling Hanqing in making a stumbling block for Li Jingwei. Just now, he took the opportunity of the tea ceremony to make Li Jingwei suffer some internal injuries. Unexpectedly, his internal strength was raised from 20% to 80%, and he was still easily resolved by the other party.
Hearing Li Jingwei say to renew the tea, he forcibly suppressed the horror in his heart, and reached out to get the teapot on the table. Unexpectedly, both hands used their best strength, but the teapot did not move at all. When he looked at Li Jingwei again, he saw the faint smile of the other party, and his whole body suddenly felt a bone-chilling coldness.
Leng Bai was about to open his mouth to cover up, but then he realized that he couldn't even speak.
"Tea is tea, water is water, tea is tea. Li Jingwei said as he put the teacup on the table. "Mr. Leng, thank you!"
Then, he said to Ling Hanqing: "Mr. Ling, thank you for your hospitality." Farewell!" After speaking, he left with Zhao Yici and others.
After walking out of the hall, Zhao Yici glanced at the room where Bai Qinghe was, with a meaningful expression.
Bai Qinghe, who was behind the glass, was sure that Zhao Yici couldn't see him, because the windows were filled with coated glass, and he couldn't see the inside from the outside.
However, Zhao Yici's expression still made her confused, ran to the desk, picked up the phone and called the old man in the Northeast, and told the matter as it was. The old man didn't say a word, and hung up the phone.
Bai Qinghe remembered what his grandfather had specially explained when he came to the capital, and he must stay away from the Zhao family. Perhaps, it was this sentence that made her young and vigorous unwilling, so she had to explore Zhao Yici to see if this girl was better than herself.
In the hall, Ling Hanqing was also remorseful. looked at Leng Bai, who was still holding the teapot in both hands, and secretly hated that he was used as a gunman by Sun Manhong. At that moment, he took out his membership card from his pocket, threw it on the table, and said to Sun Manhong, who hurried over, "The threshold of this club is too high, I Ling Hanqing can't afford it!" Then, without waiting for everyone to react, he took the lead and walked outside.
Sun Manhong was so anxious that she almost cried. Just imagine, if the young master of the Ling family, one of the five major families in Kyoto, withdrew from the club, what kind of impact would it be. She turned around and was about to chase out, but she heard a 'plop' sound behind her, and hurriedly looked back, it turned out that Leng Bai fell to the ground.
"Uncle Leng, how are you?" Sun Manhong asked in a state of confusion and crying.
"He is merciful, but I am afraid that he will not be able to use his internal strength in three years. 'Tea is tea, water is water, tea is tea'. He was telling me to distinguish between right and wrong, and if I didn't know where to use force, I didn't want to. β
In the Bai family in the northeast, the old man Bai Qianlu looked at the red phone, and finally picked it up and broadcast a number in the capital.
"Big brother, I'm sorry to disturb your rest so late. β
Outsiders must be very surprised to see this scene, who else can make Bai Qianlu hold the microphone with both hands and his body straight to make a phone call. No one would have thought that the Bai family was actually the descendant of the Zhao family.
Before participating in the revolutionary work, Bai Qianlu was the younger brother of the Zhao Revolution. Zhao Revolution's original name was Zhao Huicheng, and he changed his name to Zhao Revolution after participating in revolutionary work. During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Zhao Revolution carried Bai Qianlu out of the pile of dead people more than once.
Later, with the promotion of the two, they deliberately reduced their contacts in order to avoid suspicion. Considering the huge influence of the Bai family in the military and political circles in the Northeast, if the outside world knows about the relationship between the two, I am afraid that Zhao Yici's father's rivals will have some complaints.
"Qianlu, what's wrong?" Zhao Revolution also liked his little brother very much, and when he was implicated during the turmoil, it was Bai Qianlu who took great risks and took his family to a certain farm in Northeast China through various connections, called re-education through labor, which was actually preserved.
"Xiao Ci went to Qinghe's club to eat today, Xiao He is not sensible, I am afraid that Xiao Ci and her friends will be distracted. Bai Qianlu said.
"Qianlu, in order to avoid suspicion, our two brothers have deliberately interacted less over the years, and the children don't know each other, so it's normal to have some small conflicts. In the future, we will keep in touch with each other and let the children keep in touch more. I'll call Xiaoci when I go back, you ask Xiaohe to go and play with her, the two sisters are very similar in temperament, and they will become good friends. In addition, in two months, the Weimin Association will go to the Northeast to inspect the work, and you tell Lianhu to go and talk to Weimin more. β
"But, big brother, will this affect the two of them?"
"What impact can it have? I figured it out, for the people and Lianhu are both people who are dedicated to the public, and they are not afraid of shadows. Moreover, we come and go a lot, and for some people who are swaying and watching, it may have a good effect. β
"Big brother, I see. We haven't played a good game of chess for more than ten years, and I have itchy hands again when you say this, so I will come to Kyoto to play chess with you in two days. β
"You stinky chess basket, it's hard to make progress. Zhao Revolution scolded with a smile, "But if you come, stay for a while." β
"Okay. What is the relationship between Xiao Ci and this young man named Li Jingwei? This young man's skills are really amazing, you know the impermanence of my subordinates, that kid made him suffer a big loss without moving, and it is estimated that he will not be able to use his internal strength for three years. β
"I heard that it is a little guy who has just joined the Xuanyuan Dragon League, and he is a professor at a university in the United States. Unpromising. There are so many good universities in China, but they can't do well in China. β
"Then you can send him a message to come back. β
β......β
It's rare for the two of them to make porridge on the phone.
