Episode 230: Standard Business Dinner Mode
Zheng Xiyi didn't think carefully about why Li Xiaoli didn't respond to his confession, because he still had something to do today: invite Xu Peilu and Li Xudong to dinner.
Yesterday, Xu Peilu and Li Xudong were very face-saving, although there was Zhang Shanyun's reason, but these two did not show their faces in person, so they naturally handed over Li Xiaoli to Zheng Xiyi, and even sent the room card over, this is a favor, Zheng Xiyi must first return face to others, and then find a way to return the favor to the other party.
The place to treat is very good, Lotte can't go again today, I just made it there stormy yesterday, and it's not appropriate to go today, I know that I take care of business, and I don't know that I think the provocation is coming, so Zheng Xiyi chose the Shilla Hotel, Li Xudong's home field, which can be regarded as giving three stars face.
BOOKED THE LOCATION BEFORE NOON, AND THEN PERSONALLY CALLED LI XUDONG AND XU PEILU TO CONFIRM THE TIME, ZHENG XIYI PUT DOWN HIS PHONE AND TURNED AROUND TO SEE STELLA SITTING BEHIND HIM STARING AT HIM ANGRILY.
"What's wrong? Why is this the way it looks?"
STELLA SAID HATEFULLY, "OPPA KNOWINGLY ASKED, DON'T PRETEND TO BE PABO!"
Zheng Xiyi spread his hands, "OK, I_KNOW." But I didn't tell anyone about Sister Xiaoli until it was confirmed, even my sister, so I didn't hide it from you. β
STELLA ROLLED HER EYES, "XIYIN ONI HAS ALSO GONE BAD, SHE FOUND OUT BUT HELPED YOU HIDE IT FROM ME." β
ZHENG XIYI WALKED OVER AND SAT NEXT TO STELLA AND GENTLY PINCHED STELLA'S FACE, "IT'S NOT WHAT YOU THINK." My sister can feel it, but since I was a child, has anyone been able to meddle in my affairs? What can you do if you tell you? Didn't I tell you that you still came to Korea from the United States to be a trainee? The result is exactly the same, right? If that's the case, why do you want to tell you to make you worry in the United States?"
STELLA CROOKED HER MOUTH AND THOUGHT ABOUT IT FOR A WHILE, AND HAD TO ADMIT THAT ZHENG XIYI'S CROOKED REASONING WAS REALLY REASONABLE......
But she didn't get to the point yet, so the conversation went on.
"BUT, OPPA, IS THE REASON WHY YOU DON'T LIKE ME BECAUSE OF HER? BECAUSE SHE'S MORE SEXY? THAT'S BECAUSE SHE'S OLDER, I CHECKED ON THE INTERNET LAST NIGHT, SHE'S SIX YEARS OLDER THAN OPPA, AND I'LL BE SO SEXY WHEN I GROW UP, NO, IT MUST BE MORE SEXY THAN HER!"
Zheng Xiyi flicked her forehead, "Ah Qinjia, what have you learned in American schools in the past few years? Do you think about SEXY when you are so old?In addition, you must respect your elders, Sister Xiaoli is a national goblin, a senior, even if you don't call a senior, at least call NUNA." β
STELLA POUTED AND RUBBED HER FOREHEAD, "CUT, WHOEVER WANTS THAT VIXEN TO BE NUNA, SHE'S GOING TO SNATCH OPPA, IT'S GOOD IF I DIDN'T BEAT HER." β
Zheng Xiyi stroked his forehead speechlessly, this child has watched a lot of Chinese stories with himself and Lin Xiyin since he was a child, and the word fox spirit is really accurate......
"Forget it, I won't force you, anyway, you won't meet her much. BUT STELLA, YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER, DON'T TELL ANYONE ABOUT LAST NIGHT, AND HELP ME TELL STEPHANIE BY THE WAY. β
STELLA SNORTED DISDAINFULLY, "IF SHE DARES TO GRAB OPPA WITH ME AGAIN, I'LL SAY IT TO SEE IF SHE CAN STILL BE A NATIONAL GOBLIN, SO THAT SHE CAN BECOME A NATIONAL VIXEN IN AN INSTANT." β
Zheng Xiyi raised his face and glared at her, "I'm serious, this is related to Sister Xiaoli's reputation, this is a very serious matter in South Korea, you have to keep it in mind, and you will understand when you make your debut in the future." β
STELLA WAVED HER HAND IMPATIENTLY, TWISTED HER HEAD TO THE SIDE AND SAID, "ALASO, ALASO, I JUST TALKED TO OPPA, AND I DEFINITELY WON'T TALK ABOUT IT WHEN I GO OUT, AM I SO IGNORANT IN THE EYES OF OPPA?"
ZHENG XIYI ALSO KNEW THAT STELLA WAS JUST HARD-MOUTHED, BUT SHE WAS YOUNG AND HER MIND WAS JUMPING, AND SHE WOULD DEFINITELY NOT SAY IT ON PURPOSE, BUT SHE WAS AFRAID THAT IF SHE ACCIDENTALLY SAID IT, SHE STILL HAD TO TELL HER, AND WHEN SHE SAW THAT SHE AGREED, SHE RUBBED THE TOP OF HER HEAD, "TODAY YOU AND STEPHANIE ARE PLAYING AT HOME, AND I ORDER TAKEOUT AT NIGHT, I HAVE SERIOUS THINGS TO DO." β
STELLA SHOOK HER HEAD UNHAPPILY, AND REACHED OUT TO SMOOTH OUT HER HAIRSTYLE, "NEI, INVITE THAT THREE-STAR MINISTER TO DINNER WITH A GENTLEMAN FROM TAIWAN, OPPA SEEMS TO BE REALLY EMPATHETIC AND DON'T FALL IN LOVE, I WANT TO TELL LAM OH MOM, OPPA DOESN'T WANT ME ANYMORE." β
Zheng Xiyi just didn't hear it, and told it, maybe Lin Xiyin would have told his parents a long time ago.
STELLA SAW THAT ZHENG XIYI DIDN'T ANSWER THE CONVERSATION, AND SHE ALSO KNEW THAT ZHENG XIYI WAS NOW ADOPTING A POLICY OF SILENCE AND NON-RESISTANCE AGAINST HER, WHICH MADE HER FEEL BORED AND THOSE LITTLE GIRLS' MINDS SLOWLY FADED, BUT SHE FELT THAT SHE WAS BY NO MEANS A PERSON WHO CHANGED HER MIND CASUALLY, ANYWAY, SHE HAD TIME AND OPPORTUNITY, AND SLOWLY GRINDED TO SEE WHO WAS AFRAID OF WHOM, AND ONE DAY SHE WOULD LET ZHENG XIYI KNOW THAT SHE WAS HIS TRUE DAUGHTER.
It was about seven o'clock in the evening, Zheng Xiyi arrived at the Shilla Hotel an hour in advance, but he didn't expect that Li Xudong and Xu Peilu arrived together after waiting in the lobby for more than 20 minutes.
As soon as he walked into the lobby and saw Zheng Xiyi standing up from the sofa, Li Xudong shook his head and laughed, took a small box from the assistant behind him and handed it to Xu Peilu, who also took it with a smile.
Zheng Xiyi looked at it from a distance and didn't know what these two were doing, so he saluted first and then greeted him.
"Anihasse, Xiyi XI is really early. I bet with Xu Peilu XI how long in advance Xiyi XI will come to Silla to wait for us, and my most daring idea is only half an hour, but Xu Peilu XI said that it must be more than half an hour, so the two of us came over half an hour in advance, I didn't expect Xiyi XI to be so sincere and wait for us so early, causing me to lose to Xu Peilu XI. β
Li Xudong complained jokingly while greeting him, Zheng Xiyi could only apologize to Li Xudong with a smile, of course Li Xudong shook his hand again and again and said it was just a joke.
The secretary behind Xu Peilu leaned in his ear to translate Li Xudong's words, Xu Peilu immediately smiled and handed the box in his hand to Zheng Xiyi, "Brother Xiyi's character is really as humble and polite as my wife said, let me win Minister Zhao, today I will borrow flowers to offer Buddha, this Samsung's latest mobile phone will be given to Brother Xiyi as a gift to make up for yesterday's meeting." Don't shirk, you helped me win it back, and I didn't actually lose anything. β
ZHENG XIYI TOOK THE BOX IN A DAZE AND SAW THAT SAMSUNG HAD NOT YET LISTED ANYCALL MOBILE PHONES.
After listening to the translation of the secretary behind him, Li Xudong reached out and snatched back the box in Zheng Xiyi's hand, turned it over and stuffed it into Xu Peilu's secretary's hand, "Xu Peilu XI is too faceless, this is South Korea, my home field, how can you need to give your mobile phone to Xiyi XI, I also brought Xiyi XI's share." β
Saying that, he took a paper bag from the secretary's hand, and presented it to Zheng Xiyi with very formal hands, "Xiyi XI, I almost had a misunderstanding when we met for the first time yesterday, but fortunately, it was solved in time, in order to express my apologies, and at the same time to make a friend, please accept this gift." β
Zheng Xiyi frowned slightly, Li Xudong's posture was too low, what is this for?
If you really want to calculate what happened yesterday, it is Zheng Xiyi who is to blame, this reason does not refer to the truth that normal people know, but the truth of the circle in which Li Xudong and Xu Peilu are located. Playing with female stars is naturally immoral in the eyes of ordinary people, but in their eyes, it is just a harmless trivial matter, and it is not even a matter, it is just a small benefit after work and entertainment, Zheng Xiyi broke in and took away Li Xiaoli in the name of Zhang Shanyun, saying that it is ugly to bully people, and if you really want to be narrow-minded, this feud will be settled, not to mention that Zheng Xiyi saw from Li Xudong's eyes yesterday is not really unreasonable, but Zhang Shanyun is too strong, although he is the overseas minister of Samsung Electronics, he also has to be obedient with a smileγ
Since he knew that Li Xudong's good attitude yesterday was because Zhang Shanyun was present, today Zheng Xiyi was ready to be put on a stand by him and even made a face, and even the venue was chosen in Li Xudong's half of the home Shilla Hotel just to show sincerity, but he didn't expect Li Xudong's attitude to be better than yesterday.
BUT NOW IS NOT THE TIME TO THINK, ZHENG XIYI RESPECTFULLY BENT DOWN AND STRETCHED OUT HIS HANDS TO TAKE THE HANDBAG, AND SWEPT IT SLIGHTLY WHEN HE STRAIGHTENED HIS WAIST, THERE WERE ALMOST TEN BOXES IN THE BAG, ALL OF WHICH WERE ANYCALL MOBILE PHONES, ALTHOUGH IT WAS NOTHING FOR LI XUDONG, BUT IT WAS ENOUGH TO SHOW THAT THE OTHER PARTY WAS NOT JUST GIVING GIFTS FOR YESTERDAY'S EVENTS, BUT MORE LIKE SENDING SAMPLES TO THE SPOKESPERSON FOR TRIAL AND PUBLICITY.
Xu Peilu stood aside squinting and smiling, but he was also thinking in his heart, Li Xudong's attitude after leaving the box yesterday was not like this, although he would not say anything in front of him, an outsider, but his face was not good, after all, Zheng Xiyi swept his face, and today's attitude of a hundred and eighty degree turn is simply like a judgment of the two, obviously Li Xudong knew something after the two people separated, and he would be so broken today.
The three of them were full of enthusiasm and the atmosphere was naturally very good, so they almost walked into the box arm in arm, and when the three of them and the two secretaries sat down, Zheng Xiyi beckoned to the waiter waiting on the side, took the menu from her and handed it to Li Xudong and Xu Peilu, "I'm very sorry, I took the liberty to order the food first, and a few people can change it if there are any dissatisfaction or taboos." β
This kind of dinner is not a gathering of friends and is not really the first time to know each other and get acquainted with it, so it is impossible to wait for the guests to come and then order, the host has ordered the dishes and waited for the guests to arrive, and the menu is also a courtesy to the guests to see, as long as there is no real taboo, the guests will not say anything.
Li Xudong and Xu Peilu glanced at the menu, the Korean food of Chinese cuisine is decent, that is, it is not luxurious or simple, and it takes care of the tastes of the two hosts and guests. The two of them glanced at each other, smiled, and spoke more highly of Zheng Xiyi in their hearts.
Chinese people pay a lot of attention to eating, like Zheng Xiyi, Li Xudong, Xu Peilu, this kind of dinner similar to Hetou wine can only reflect the sincerity of the delicacies and seas, but in other countries, they are probably with Zheng Xiyi, just order a few dishes in the middle of the rules, because the focus is on what to talk about, as for food, these people are people who have eaten all over the world, where do they care what they eat at this meal.
A few people chatted while eating, all of them were people who had run all over the world, the customs and traditions of the United States, China, South Korea, Taiwan and other countries and regions, interesting anecdotes and miscellaneous things were all at their fingertips, and the guests and hosts enjoyed a meal, and when the leftovers were removed, the three of them turned to the coffee table and sat around to drink coffee and start a formal conversation.
