Chapter 251: Arrogance
"Old Ma, are you sure the other party said seven o'clock?"
In the car, Tang Tian sat in the driver's seat, glanced at the time on the dashboard, and couldn't help asking.
According to Ma Junyu, they should have arrived at an address near the Brilliant Group before seven o'clock, and then waited here for the director of the investment promotion department, and then spent about fifteen minutes to send the person to the hotel that Ma Junyu's father had already booked.
When Tang Tian and Ma Junyu arrived here in the car, it was only half past six, and they had been sitting in the car waiting since that time, but now it was half past seven, and a full hour had passed, but they had not seen the shadow of the director of the investment promotion department.
"Maybe the other party is working overtime temporarily, or maybe it's delayed by something?" Ma Junyu guessed.
"It's a possibility. ”
Tang Tian nodded and said, "I think you'd better call Uncle Ma again to confirm, don't make any mistakes." ”
Although the place where they park now is not too far from the Brilliant Group, there are too many office buildings in this area, and the flow of people after work is relatively large.
Ma Junyu nodded and said, "Okay, I'll call." ”
After a while, he put down the phone and said, "My dad said that he has given our license plate and my phone number to the director, and he will definitely not miss it, and the other party should not have come out yet." ”
Tang Tian asked, "Then do you have the director's phone number?"
Ma Junyu nodded and said: "Yes, yes, but my dad said that it was best not to call the other party, so as to make the other party mistakenly think that we were urging him, if he gets off work, he will definitely contact me." ”
Tang Tian nodded slightly, this is also true, after all, he is begging others to do things now, if he calls to inquire now, it will inevitably make people think that he is urging, which is indeed a little inappropriate.
The two sat in the car and waited patiently.
However, time passed minute by minute, and in the blink of an eye, another forty minutes passed, but the director did not show up for a long time.
Tang Tian couldn't help frowning and asked, "Old Ma, I think it's best for you to call the other party to ask about the situation, what do you think?"
Ma Junyu also realized that something was not quite right, after all, this was an appointment before, if the other party was late for half an hour or even an hour, it would be okay to say something, but now it has been almost two hours, and the other party still has not made the slightest movement, which is a bit too much to say.
He picked up his phone and dialed the director's number.
However, a few seconds later, the phone was hung up by the other party.
Ma Junyu was stunned: "He hung up, isn't it inconvenient to answer the phone?" I'll send him another text message to try." ”
The text message was sent, and more than ten minutes passed, but there was no reply from the other party.
Ma Junyu couldn't sit still: "Could it be that something happened?"
Tang Tian couldn't help frowning, if the other party was working overtime, or if there was any temporary change, then he should tell them about it, so that he wouldn't even answer the phone or reply to the text message.
Moreover, since Ma Junyu's father did not call him now, it means that the director obviously did not inform him either.
"I'll give him another call. Ma Junyu said, and dialed the director's phone again.
Tang Tian listened beside him, and after the phone rang seven or eight times, it was finally connected.
"Who? Why do you keep calling?" As soon as the phone was connected, a middle-aged man's voice came from inside, but the other party's voice was full of impatience, and at the same time, there were a lot of noises over there, and Tang Tian vaguely heard someone persuading him to drink.
"Hello Director Liu, I am the driver sent by Ma Wanli to pick you up, may I ask ......?"
However, before Ma Junyu could finish his words, he was interrupted by a voice on the phone.
I only heard the voice say impatiently: "Who is Ma Wanli? Oh, it's the little boss from Nanzhou, right? I said you don't know anything, I'm busy here, what are you urging!"
Ma Junyu's brows furrowed, but he still said politely: "Director Liu, I'm worried that you may miss it with us, so I ......."
"I'm busy, I'll get back to it. ”
Ma Junyu didn't finish his words, and was interrupted by Director Liu again, "If you are impatient to wait, you can go." ”
Hearing this, Ma Junyu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and wanted to say something, but the phone was hung up directly.
"This guy looks like he's drinking?"
Ma Junyu frowned, and said with some annoyance: "He left us here and ran to drink by himself?"
There was a lot of noise on the phone just now, and he naturally heard it. While Director Liu was talking, there were still people drinking with him.
Ma Junyu naturally understood that this Director Liu was working overtime, and it was clear that he didn't take the things agreed with them seriously, and instead went to drink with others.
Tang Tian couldn't help frowning a little, that Director Liu really didn't take Ma Junyu's father and son seriously, especially Ma Junyu's father, and even had a kind of arrogant arrogance when he spoke, that attitude was really too bad.
"Old Ma, I think you should tell Uncle Ma about this and see how he arranges it. Tang Tian said.
Although he is also very dissatisfied with that Director Liu, no matter what, it is Ma Junyu's father who is begging the other party now, so what to do next depends on what Ma Junyu's father means.
"What the hell!"
Ma Junyu's face was a little unsightly, and he couldn't help but scold, no matter who encounters such a thing, he will not feel comfortable in his heart.
He took a deep breath and still called his father: "Dad, I contacted that Director Liu just now, but he ......"
After a while, Ma Junyu hung up the phone and said, "Let's go, go directly to the hotel." ”
Tang Tian asked, "What's the matter, don't you wait for that Director Liu?"
"My dad said, rushing is not a business, since people don't take us seriously at all, even if we beg each other and reluctantly enter the shopping mall under the brilliant group, it will definitely be scraped off. ”
Ma Junyu said helplessly: "Since this is the case, let's just think of other ways, besides, my dad has ordered a table of good dishes today, and it can't be wasted like this, instead of sticking to other people's cold butts with a hot face, it is better for us to eat it ourselves." ”
Tang Tian smiled, but he didn't say anything more, he was thinking in his heart that after he sent Ma Junyu away, he could contact Hu Dongfang, maybe he could help Ma Junyu's father get through this relationship.
The hotel that Ma Junyu's father set was very close to here, and ten minutes later, Tang Tian and the others drove to the door of a very high-end hotel, stopped the car, and the two entered the box.
"Classmate Tang Tian, I'm really bothering you today, it's hard work. ”
Ma Junyu's father, Ma Wanli, was very enthusiastic, and there was no frustration or anger on his face that he had been released.
Tang Tian smiled and said: "Uncle Ma is polite, I am friends with Ma Junyu, this little thing is not worth mentioning." ”
Ma Wanli said with a smile: "Okay! Then I'm not welcome, since people don't give face, let's not look ugly, Tang Tian, today my uncle will borrow flowers to offer Buddha, let's eat by ourselves, waiter, start the food!"
Tang Tian sat down on the edge of the table and took a look at this box, he found that the area of this box is not large, but the decoration is extremely luxurious, and there are waiters next to him who are serving specially.
In particular, there were two bottles of liquor on the table that didn't look too inconspicuous, but Tang Tian could see the vintage on it at a glance, it had been more than twenty years since now, this was obviously an old liquor with a vintage, and it must be expensive to look at that brand.
Obviously, Ma Wanli did pay for it in order to invite that Director Liu.
But it's a pity that Director Liu is extremely arrogant and doesn't take Ma Wanli in his eyes at all, which can be heard not only from the other party's actions, but also in the other party's words.
When Ma Junyu called Director Liu before, the other party didn't even remember who Ma Wanli was for a while, and after thinking about it, he directly said that Ma Wanli was a small boss, and that kind of condescending tone could be heard even by a fool.
However, Ma Wanli is obviously also a person who is used to seeing wind and waves, at least from his speech and demeanor, although he is also very unhappy with Director Liu's behavior, he does not complain too much, and he doesn't even say a few words.
Because Tang Tian was going to drive, the three of them didn't drink, but they had a big meal.
Ma Wanli didn't order many dishes, but they were all big dishes, and the chefs at this restaurant were very skilled, and each dish tasted quite good.
When the meal was over, the three of them didn't stay any longer, and Ma Wanli didn't refuse Tang Tian's proposal to take him to the hotel.
After Ma Wanli settled the bill, the three of them walked outside, but at this time, a few people were also talking and laughing at the bar and preparing to settle the bill.
These people were all drunk, and two of them were even more drunk, and their faces were flushed, and their bodies were shaking when they walked.
"Director Liu?"
At this moment, Ma Wanli looked at an obese middle-aged man among those people in surprise, and couldn't help shouting.
Hearing Ma Wanli's name for this person, Tang Tian and Ma Junyu immediately turned their heads to look over, and the two glanced at each other again, realizing what this title represented.
The man seemed to see Ma Wanli at this time, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then said with a somewhat embarrassed face: "It's you, is there something?"
