In the evening, Yan Xi and Huo Jinshen went to the dinner party that Mr. Tong had made.

In a quiet alley, there is a private restaurant, and there is no sign under the eaves, not even a signboard. But Yan Xi knows that the owner of the private dish used to be the chef of the state banquet, and it was difficult to make an appointment.

At this time, there were two men in black standing at the door of the restaurant, one left and one right, looking like bodyguards, with no expression on their faces, causing the children in the alley to dare not approach, only hiding and peeking from a distance.

Yan Xi looked sideways at Tong Qianni and signaled with her eyes: Is this too exaggerated?

Tong Qianni hooked her arm and walked inside: "With my father's status, this is not very normal. ”

Yan Xi was noncommittal, and as she entered the courtyard together, Huo Jinshen followed behind them, very calm.

The interior decoration is in Chinese style, with simple light bulb lighting hanging under the wall, simple and casual. Under the vines in the middle, a round table and a few chairs were set up, and cold dishes were already prepared on the table.

At a glance, I even saw what cold dishes were prepared, but I didn't see Mr. Tong. Yan Xi looked back at Huo Jinshen and said in a low voice, "The Hongmen banquet for me?"

After all, that Mr. Tong cultivated Huo Jinshen as a son-in-law, but she was confused.

Huo Jinshen whispered to her, "Scared?"

Yan Xi smiled and said nonchalantly: "What am I afraid of." ”

She turned her head to look at Tong Qianni: "Your adults invited us to dinner, but we didn't see anyone, I'm afraid it's not a big deal, right?"

Tong Qianni walked to the inner room and shouted first: "Dad, I've brought someone, where are you?"

"It's frizzy and not in shape. The man's voice came from inside, and Tong Qianni immediately softened and called her father coquettishly. Yan Xi had never heard Tong Qianni be so coquettish, and goosebumps came out.

She whispered to Huo Jinshen, "Did she talk to you like this before?"

Yan Xi's suspicions are reasonable, after all, until now, Tong Qianni has called him "Brother Huo" very affectionately.

Huo Jin pinched her nose deeply and said, "What kind of jealousy do you still eat until now." She's sticking to you tighter than me, and I don't think she's taking you over. ”

Yan Xi pouted: "Even if you can speak, I don't care about you." She glanced into the back room, but didn't see the Mr. Tong come out, and muttered, "Let's come over for dinner but no one is there, what does this mean?"

As soon as the words fell, Tong Qianni came out of it and said to Yan Xi: "My dad said he wanted to see you." ”

Yan Xi pointed at herself: "Me?" She glanced at Huo Jinshen, her heart moved, and secretly said Mr. Tong is trying to give her an interview?

She didn't see anything unpleasant, she raised her feet and walked to the room in front, when Huo Jinshen walked together, Tong Qianni grabbed him and said, "My dad said that I only saw Yan Xi, what are you doing, my dad won't eat her." ”

Yan Xi smiled at Huo Jin and said, "It seems that it is really a Hongmen banquet." ”

……

The interior of the house is also decorated in an old-school style. On the south-facing wall hangs a picture of the sunrise, framed in glass, which is somewhat reflective to the light. Below the painting is a long table, which is neatly packed and placed with some melons and fruit snacks. In the middle is an incense burner, which is probably filled with agarwood, the taste is a little cool, some sweet, and then savored, there is a kind of elegant and elegant feeling.

Yan Xi looked sideways and saw a man sitting on a mahogany chair.

In his fifties, he wears simple clothes, his body is not fat or thin, and according to his age, he still thinks that he is very strict with his body management, and he does not see his belly at all.

A man's appearance can only be said to be mediocre, handsome, elegant and other adjectives even when he was young, they have nothing to do with him.

But such a mediocre face and simple clothes can make people perceive a powerful aura.

The two looked at each other, Yan Xi remained silent and smiled slightly.

Tong Zhi stood up slowly, and when he stood up, he seemed to be tall, and his aura was completely displayed. He opened his mouth and said, "You are Yan Xi?"

Yan Xi nodded his head and stretched out his hand: "Mr. Tong, I have admired the name for a long time." ”

According to seniority, the person in front of her is an elder, and it is okay to bow, but Yan Xi puts herself in an equal position, just like when she talks about business with people who are higher than her.

Tong Zhiping was slightly stunned, shook hands with her, and only felt that this woman was very bold and arrogant, and he was not scared to his legs when he saw him, nor did he flatter him.

However, the woman who was favored by Huo Jin Shen must not be too bad.

Tong Zhiping sat down with his trouser legs, pointed to the sofa next to him and said, "Miss Yan, please take a seat." ”

Yan Xi sat down and said with a smile: "Mr. Tong should call me Mrs. Huo." ”

Tong Zhiping glanced at her, ignored her correction, pointed to the agarwood on the long platform, and said, "I saw Miss Yan looking at the incense burner just now, do you know where this agarwood is?"

Yan Xi said: "The sweet charm of Nha Trang agarwood is incomparable to other agarwood, and it cannot be compared with any incense, which is very special. Mr. Tong, am I right?"

Tong Zhiping nodded, his serious face showed a little appreciation, and said, "Miss Yan is well-informed and has research on agarwood?"

Yan Xi talked eloquently and said: "Although Yiyantang mainly produces cosmetics, it also makes fragrance products. When Yiyantang was founded, people used sachets and sachets at that time, and it was not until the introduction of perfume that sachets and other items gradually declined. ”

"However, we have always preserved the ancient recipe and positioned it in the high-end market, so we do not produce it in large quantities, and agarwood is just one of them. ”

Tong Zhi nodded calmly and said, "I heard Qianni say that Yiyantang is led by you." With such an understanding of its own products, it is no wonder that it can make the company so big. ”

"Thank you, Mr. Tong, for the compliment. Yan Xi smiled lightly, but she knew that Tong Zhiping was not here to talk to her about business, and these compliments were just what he said casually.

Tong Zhiping changed his words and said, "Miss Yan is quick-witted, but she has also pried away the people I have cultivated, which is not very good." ”

Yan Xi's eyes rolled slightly, curled his lips and smiled, and said, "Is Mr. Tong talking about Miss Tong?"

Tong Zhiping was stunned, looking at Yan Xi's harmless face, he felt a sense of heart blockage.

His original intention was Huo Jinshen, but now that his daughter is stranded in Jiangcheng and refuses to go back, it means something about the same.

Tong Zhiping's face sank and said, "Miss Tong, don't play haha to confuse the public." ”

He folded his legs, looked at the pictures hanging on the wall, and said, "When I met Huo Jinshen, he was still a recent graduate, looking for investment everywhere with new projects. ”

"He ran into a lot of walls until he met me. A young man who has just come out of the oven actually came to talk to me about the conditions......" He recalled the past, remembered the picture of the year, and sneered, "A stunned young man." But I also admire his courage and self-confidence, and I like talented and capable men. ”

"Since then, I have invested in his projects, and we have gradually become acquainted. He was very respectful and often exchanged questions about me. Qianni also likes to follow him, but he always teaches my daughter a straight face. ”

"My daughter cannot be reprimanded by anyone but me, but I have not taught this boy a lesson. Do you know what that means?"

Tong Zhiping stopped and stared at Yan Xi with sharp eyes.

Yan Xi said calmly: "It means that Mr. Tong regards Huo Jinshen as his own." ”

Tong Zhiping said: "It's good that you know." ”

Yan Xi smiled and said, "Huo Jinshen also regards Mr. Tong as his own person, so he can treat Tong Qianni as his sister and teach her to be good or bad." ”

Tong Zhiping narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at the woman in front of him. He said that he regarded Huo Jinshen as his own person, and he was talking about treating Huo Jinshen as his son-in-law, but this girl said that he regarded Huo Jinshen as his son, it was really a thousand pounds, no wonder Qin Shuangyin was defeated by her.

When he came, Tong Zhiping didn't investigate Yan Xi, but it was a literal thing, which was still much worse than saying a few words in person.

His face turned pale and he said bluntly: "I only have this one daughter." Miss Yan, I invested in Huo Jinshen because I wanted to train him as my spotter. ”

After saying it so clearly, Yan Xi stopped playing haha. She said: "As the saying goes, a businessman can't afford to be early if he is not profitable. Mr. Tong invested in Huo Jinshen's project because your vision is better than others. In this project, Mr. Tong, like Huo Jinshen, has received huge benefits. ”

"In this case, it's just a transaction between you for money and goods, not a person-to-person transaction, isn't it?"

"Since Huo Jinshen didn't sell himself to you, then who he chooses to be his wife is his own choice. ”

"Besides...... Yan Xi laughed, "Huo Jinshen is such a person, you want him to be his son-in-law, is he willing?"

"Mr. Tong, I know you're not here to talk to me about this. Tong Qianni and Huo Jinshen are both waiting outside for dinner. ”

Although the man in front of him is a giant in Liangcheng, Huo Jinshen has already married her, telling the world that Tong Zhiping can still drop her?

With Tong Zhiping's love for Tong Qianni, he will not wronged her and let her marry a man who is married for the second time.

So Yan Xi deduced that this man was just testing her to see if she could be worthy of Huo Jinshen.

For Tong Zhiping, Huo Jinshen can also be regarded as his apprentice.

Tong Zhi looked at Yan Xi calmly for a few seconds, then suddenly laughed a few times, and said, "You are very bold, no wonder Huo Jin was so confused, that kid has a very high vision." ”

Yan Xi smiled and said, "It's just fate." ”

Tong Zhiping took a breath lightly, changed his posture and said, "Actually, I saw Miss Yan alone to see what kind of person my daughter was." ”

"Qianni has liked Huo Jinshen since she was a child, you robbed her people, she can still live in peace with you, and worship you, I'm very curious. ”

Yan Xi spread his hands and said, "Two eyes and one mouth, it's very common, isn't it?"

"My daughter, I have been spoiled by me, she is rude and willful, and Huo Jinshen can cure her. I thought that when she came to Jiangcheng, she would turn the world upside down here and fight with you, but I was surprised that she was actually accepted by you, and she was learning to do business with you, and she would learn to be a man. ”

Putting on a tall hat one by one, Yan Xi was a little unsure of what this big guy thought. She said modestly: "I don't know Miss Tong if I don't fight. Speaking of which, it may be that the magnetic fields of the two of us are relatively similar. ”

Although Tong Qianni is rude and willful, she is simple, and she knows right and wrong, but she is more playful, and there is still a difference between her and those daughters who are arrogant and have no one in their eyes.

Yan Xi rolled his eyes, looked at Tong Zhiping and said with a smile: "Mr. Tong came here on purpose, because he was afraid that I would bring Miss Tong badly, right?"

Tong Zhiping looked at Yan Xi carefully, his status was higher than hers, and he was not afraid to say unpleasant things. He said: "I first got news from you and knew that your reputation was not very good. Huo Jinshen insisted on marrying you despite the opposition of the Huo family, and I was worried that you would use the means. But Huo Jinshen is not my son after all, and I can't care about him. ”

"But Qianni is different, I'm worried that you're using her to get close to her. But now it seems that the gossip is not untrue, and I am relieved. ”

Yan Xi pulled the corners of his lips and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Tong, you have been debuting for decades, and you have seen more people than ants, and I am embarrassed to say that I am a good person when I can get your words." ”

There are many prejudices in the world, but most people are just like the clouds. And it was rumored that she was a witch, but she was in the way of others. True and false, just see who can see people better.

……

Outside, Huo Jinshen sat quietly drinking tea, and there was a faint smell of wormwood in the air, which expelled the mosquitoes in the grass.

Tong Qianni was bored waiting, looked at Huo Jinshen, who was calm and relaxed, and asked, "Brother Huo, aren't you worried?"

Huo Jin glanced at her deeply: "What are you worried about?"

"I'm worried that my dad is bullying Yan Xi. Tong Qianni held her chin and drew circles on the table with her other hand, gloating, "You know my dad best." He's fierce, ruthless, and bad. Although Yan Xi is also very powerful, my father is a wolf. ”

The evaluation of Tong Zhiping in Liangcheng said that he was a werewolf, sometimes honest, sometimes fierce, changing in every inch, you never know when he will change his face.

Huo Jinshen pinched a creamy peanut from the plate and threw it in Tong Qianni's face, and sneered: "You said that about your father." ”

Tong Qianni stuck out her tongue: "He can't hear again." ”

Huo Jinshen was too lazy to argue with her child, raised her wrist and looked at the table below, the conversation had indeed been long enough. He got up and paced into the room, and saw that the two of them were sitting and laughing, and there was no sign of a confrontation.

Huo Jinshen sat down on the armrest of Yan Xi's single sofa and said, "Uncle Tong, when will you release people?"

Tong Zhiping snorted and said seriously: "What, you are still reluctant?"

Huo Jinshen: "She is my wife." ”

At this point, Tong Zhiping stood up and said to Yan Xi: "Mrs. Huo, your husband is worried that you are hungry and has come to me to ask for someone." So, let's go out to dinner?"

"Then thank you Mr. Tong for your hospitality. Yan Xi also stood up, Huo Jin put his arm around her waist, and the three of them walked out together.

Tong Zhiping nodded to the waiter waiting outside, and the man went to the corridor to prepare to serve the food.
