Chapter 46: Precarious
Looking at Xiao Cheng, who was chasing after him quickly, Jiang Lai asked, "Old Xiao, is there anything else?"
"Mr. Jiang, I am a guest from afar, and I, who is the host, have not yet exhausted the friendship of the landlord, how can I let you leave. ”
Wang Qian on the side said with a smile: "Mr. Jiang, in the entire QZ City, you are the first one who can let the old man take the initiative to chase him out." As he spoke, he squeezed his eyes without showing a trace.
Jiang Lai understood in his heart, but pretended to hesitate, and then nodded very reluctantly: "Since Xiao Lao has a heart, then I will be disrespectful." ”
Seeing him agree, Xiao Cheng was overjoyed, "Mr. Jiang, please!"
"Xiao Lao. At this time, Chen Xiong walked over quickly and greeted him respectfully. However, when his eyes came into contact with Jiang Lai's inky black eyes, he only felt a chill in his heart, and cold sweat unconsciously broke out.
He coughed lightly and smiled, "Mr. Jiang, I'm really embarrassed just now, if there is something offended, please bear with me, don't take it to heart." ”
Seeing that his chairman actually grovelled to apologize to Jiang Lai, Zhang Lei was a little skeptical that his ears had heard it wrong. If the other party is Xiao Lao, he can still understand it, after all, he has heard Chen Xiong mention this mysterious Xiao Lao, it is said that the other party is high and powerful, and he is a big man in the entire QZ City.
Don't...... Thinking of this, Zhang Lei's face turned pale, his previous arrogance was gone, and there was only fear left in his heart.
In fact, Chen Xiong didn't know Jiang Lai's identity, but when he saw Xiao Lao's attitude, he automatically classified Jiang Lai as a non-existent figure.
"Chen Xiong, what's the matter?" Xiao Cheng said with a straight face: "Mr. Jiang is a distinguished guest I invited, have you offended him?"
"No, it's not, it's just a little misunderstanding. Chen Xiong hurriedly explained: "Mr. Jiang, it's all my fault that my subordinates are ignorant and offended you with their words. Rest assured, I will definitely give you an explanation. ”
"Forget it!" Jiang Lai waved his hand, "You better discipline your subordinates well in the future, don't bully people everywhere, there is a mountain and a mountain high, in case you provoke someone you can't afford to offend, you won't even have a chance to regret it." ”
A small person like Zhang Lei, he is not interested in pursuing it at all.
"Thank you, Mr. Jiang, I promise there will be no next time. Chen Xiong breathed a sigh of relief, and his hanging heart finally landed.
"Mr. Jiang, I have already instructed someone to make the tea, let's go in and sit. Xiao Cheng made a 'please' gesture and welcomed Jiang Lai in again.
Looking at Chen Xiong who was following away, Zhang Lei cautiously shouted: "Mr. Chen, I ......"
"You go, don't let me see you in the Qingzhou realm in the future. Chen Xiong didn't look back, and coldly dropped a sentence.
Hearing this, Zhang Lei sat down on the ground with his buttocks slumped, his eyes full of dead ashes.
Back in the courtyard again, Jiang Lai was directly treated as a guest, Chen Xiong and Wang Qian both sat in the lower position, but they didn't see that Xiao Ling again. At Xiao Cheng's signal, a thin middle-aged man walked over with a tea tray and brought the hot tea that had just been brewed to everyone one by one.
Taking the teacup handed by the other party, Jiang Lai glanced at the other party, and his heart couldn't help but be surprised, his eyes were full of surprise.
"How is he?" he rubbed his eyes and looked again, yes!
He couldn't understand how the other party could appear here, and he also did the menial work of serving tea and water, could it be that this guy abandoned his family business in QZ City and became a servant of the Xiao family?
In a flash of thought, I saw Xiao Cheng pick up the teacup and said, "Mr. Jiang, I'm really sorry just now, it's not that I don't want to help, it's just that ...... Although Hua Qing is not very capable, he has an uncle who is also a master at the peak of internal strength, so he ......"
Jiang Lai nodded, understanding that Xiao Cheng had some scruples, "Old Xiao, Hua Qing's uncle is also in QZ City?"
"That's not true, his uncle has been away all the year round, and I heard that he served a big man in Jiangzhou. ”
"Old Xiao, Mr. Jiang is a guest from afar, let's not mention these unhappy things. Wang Qian took over the conversation in a timely manner and talked about the interesting things that happened in QZ City recently, and the atmosphere quickly became harmonious.
At this time, Chen Xiong had been peeking at Jiang Lai, chatting absentmindedly. After a while, he couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart, and couldn't help asking, "Mr. Jiang, I don't know where you are?"
"It's not a high level, it's just a security consultant in Nanyue Group, and it's just a mess. ”
"Security consultant?" Chen Xiong was stunned, in his mind, the identity of the other party must be amazing, otherwise, how could Xiao Lao put down his body and go out to greet him personally. However, looking at the other party's appearance, it doesn't look like they're lying.
Security Consultant ...... To put it nicely, he is the head of the security guard, and this kind of identity can't be on the table at all.
Thinking of this, he glanced at Xiao Cheng and saw that the other party's old god was there, so he didn't care at all, and his heart couldn't help but chuckle. If it was just an ordinary security consultant, how could it attract Xiao Lao's attention, this person must have other identities. Since the other party is reluctant to say, he is not good to be cheeky and ask more.
"Mr. Jiang, with your ability, you are really condescending in Nanyue Group, and the good days of Nanyue Group are coming to an end, if you don't come to our SIPG Group, I will definitely arrange a satisfactory position for you." "Someone who can make Xiao Lao valued, he naturally wants to show goodwill.
"Oh?" Jiang Lai asked with interest: "Mr. Chen, you said that the good days of Nanyue Group are coming to an end, what does this mean?"
"Don't Mr. Jiang know? The Nanyue Group used to be able to have smooth sailing because there were nobles in Kyoto to help, and to put it bluntly, they were backers, but now it is different, their nobleman in Kyoto passed away two years ago. There is a good saying, when people go to tea and cool, the Hai family loses their backers, and no one is willing to give them special care. As far as I know, many people have taken a fancy to the fat of Nanyue Group and want to get a piece of the pie. Let's wait and see, it won't be long before the Nanyue Group will become torn apart. ”
"I see. Jiang Lai nodded secretly. When I first arrived in QZ City, I only knew that Nanyue Group was one of the world's top 500 companies, but I didn't expect that their situation was already precarious.
However, none of this has anything to do with him, and he can't worry about it.
After chatting for a while, Jiang Lai, who was full of worries, excused himself to go to the bathroom, got up and left the living room.
After walking around for a while, in the corner of the courtyard, Jiang Lai finally found the figure that made him feel familiar. At this moment, the other party is holding a watering can and is concentrating on watering the flowers. Looking at his skillful techniques, he was like an experienced florist, so much so that Jiang Lai was a little suspicious that he had recognized the wrong person.
After hesitating for a moment, he stepped forward, looked at the other party's back, and said slowly, "I didn't expect to see you here, Mr. Yue." ”
