Chapter 035: So, I Forgive You (Recommended Plus Update)
"Miss Liu Qian, welcome. ”
Xing Tao, as the general manager of Quanjude, was also stunned when he saw Liu Qian, and then reacted immediately and greeted him with a smile.
"Hello Mr. Xing. Liu Qian greeted politely.
In the face of outsiders, Liu Qian's treatment of people is gentle and virtuous, which makes people feel like a spring breeze.
Qin Luo looked at it from the side and couldn't help pouting.
"Miss Liu is here to ......" Xing Tao asked curiously, he was a little unsure of Liu Qian's intention.
"I am here today to congratulate Quanjude on its 155th anniversary. After a pause, Liu Qian said a little shyly, "By the way, let's taste the new dishes." ”
Xing Tao understood in seconds.
Well, Liu Qian's foodie nature is obviously already widely known.
Of course, this is not a slot, but it seems that Liu Qian is more cute, more vivid, and more down-to-earth, unlike the fairies shown in film and television dramas, and she does not eat the fireworks in the world.
"Miss Liu must be feasting on it today. Xing Tao said with a smile on his face, "In addition, there will be a couplet contest later, Miss Liu can enjoy it." ”
"Okay, I'll see. Liu Qian nodded.
Xing Tao's eyes lit up when he saw this, and he proposed, "I wonder if Miss Liu is interested in presenting awards to the champion of tonight's couplet competition?"
Liu Qian was stunned for a moment, thought for a moment, nodded again, and said politely: "It's an honor." ”
Isn't it just an award presenter, it's not difficult for her.
And this is also a normal human relationship, when she applied for a VVIP card, she also asked Xing Tao for help, otherwise it would be a bit difficult to apply for a VVIP card just as a first-line star.
This time it can be regarded as returning the original favor.
Xing Tao was happy in his heart, with the first-line star Liu Qian as the guest of honor, tonight's couplet contest is even more interesting.
Xing Tao nodded at Sister Ying, obviously knowing Sister Ying, then looked at Qin Luo and asked suspiciously, "Who is this?"
"Friends. Liu Qian explained before Qin Luo, and then added, "It's just an ordinary friend." ”
Qin Luo felt a little emotional when he heard this, and looked at her dissatisfied, "Why do you want to emphasize 'ordinary friends'?"
Liu Qianbai didn't say anything.
Xing Tao glanced at Qin Luo in a little surprise, is he so familiar with Liu Qian? Obviously not an ordinary friend, the explanation is a bit of a trickle.
However, Xing Tao didn't pay too much attention to this gossip, but paid more attention to Qin Luo's identity.
"Three of you, please. Xing Tao actually wanted to lead the way himself.
"Mr. Xing doesn't have to worry too much about us, you can go and get busy yourself, we can just find a place." Sister Ying said politely.
"Oh well. Xing Tao nodded, he had already shown enough sincerity and didn't need to be too attentive.
Otherwise, what do you make the other literati and artists on the scene think?
Xing Tao beckoned the lobby manager and asked her to be in charge of the reception, and then left by himself.
The lobby manager didn't dare to slack off, and invited with a smile: "Three of you, please." ”
There are only eighteen tables left in the hall, which are arranged in four directions, south, south, and north, and the open space in the middle is the stage.
The lobby manager led the three of them all the way to the tables in the first row on the east side.
The position of this table is the best and most noble, and being able to sit at this table is also a status symbol.
However, the problem arose, there were already eight people sitting at this table, and there were only two empty seats left, but Liu Qian and his party had three people.
The lobby manager was instantly stunned, she remembered that there were only seven people at this table before, so she deliberately brought Liu Qian and three people over, a table of ten people is just right, who thinks but there is one more, who should sit and who should get up?
The lobby manager was about to cry, this was digging a pit and burying himself.
What made her even more devastated was that Qin Luo saw some fruit plates on the table, her eyes lit up, she sat down on an empty seat, reached out and took a kumquat, slipped it away and ate it.
"I'm sorry guys, I'm really hungry. Qin Luo explained by the way while eating.
Liu Qian: "......"
Sister Ying: "......"
Lobby Manager: "......"
Eight Guests: "......"
"You get up for me. Liu Qian whispered in ventriloquist to warn that she regretted coming in to eat roast duck for the first time, it was too embarrassing.
Sister Ying was proud of herself at this moment, she had been running between Liu Qian and Qin Luo, which was obviously a wise move.
Qin Luo wanted to defend himself a few words.
He really didn't notice that there were not enough empty seats, his stomach was croaking with hunger all the time, and he was almost out of strength, and he saw that there was food on the table, and there were traces of others eating, so what were you waiting for, just sit down and eat.
As for what seat, status, identity, dignity, and face, he really didn't think about it that much.
However, when he heard Liu Qian's words, he looked around and immediately found something wrong with him, and hurriedly stood up, "I'm sorry, I ...... it."
However, at this moment, a middle-aged man in his thirties with glasses sitting opposite him looked at him with contempt and whispered, "What kind of person is this? ”
He spoke quietly, but a table was so big that everyone present could hear it.
In an instant, the faces of several people changed.
"What did you say?" Qin Luo's eyes looked directly at the man with glasses, at this moment, his killer soul awakened, and his tone was as cold as ice slag, enough to freeze people.
Everyone at the table shivered involuntarily, and felt a cool breath rushing from the soles of their feet to their heads.
"Calm down. Liu Qian suddenly felt bad, and couldn't care about it, so she grabbed Qin Luo's arm to prevent him from making angry moves.
On the plane before, she had seen with her own eyes how good Qin Luo's skills were.
really did it, this glasses man has to lose his skin if he doesn't die.
"No, as a literati, how can you say such vulgar words, aren't you ashamed?" The man in his 50s sitting at the top was Zhao Wensong, a famous master of Chinese studies in Yanjing, and also the vice president of the Yanjing Writers Association.
The glasses man's name is Zhao Zhuzhu, and he is Zhao Wensong's nephew.
Although Zhao Wensong was preaching to Zhao Zhu, he was quite a bit of a deep meaning of scolding Huai.
"Literati have bones, and they should not mock others, which is an unqualified behavior that lowers one's self-cultivation. Zhao Wensong said kindly, "Quick, apologize to this little brother." We are adults, and we shouldn't be like children. ”
This is a change of law to scold Qin Luo for having no quality and no brains.
Qin Luo's eyes narrowed, and his gaze swept over Zhao Wensong and Zhao Buzhu's bodies.
The other literati and artists at the table also helped.
Zhao couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth, his eyes showed a hint of sarcasm, but he said incorrectly, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that about you." ”
Liu Qian still grabbed Qin Luo's arm to prevent him from suddenly making a move.
Qin Luo took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, looked at Zhao Buzhu, and said with a serious face, "I forgive you." ”
After a pause, Qin Luo added, "Because my mother once told me a truth: if a dog bites you, you can't bite a dog again, then it's the same as a dog." ”
"So, I forgive you. ”
