Chapter 52: The Apprenticeship Banquet with a Different Taste
The room is not luxurious, but it is elegant and quiet, and the four people who look like high-ranking cadres are sitting in the position, and Ji Peng is playing with his fingers in the rest area. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The few people sitting in the room surprised Du Yuzhou, two of them were his college classmates, especially Zhang Xiaofan, an old classmate on the main seat, which was really unexpected by him.
It is not surprising that Liu Wei, who has achieved the position of deputy director of the Construction Department, participated in Du Yuzhou, Ji Heping found himself through him, that is, for his sake, Du Yuzhou finally did not turn his face because of Chen Xuan and Ji Heping.
However, Zhang Xiaofan also came to participate, so Du Yuzhou had to re-evaluate Ji Heping's energy.
Zhang Xiaofan is the highest status among his classmates, holding an important position, the secretary general of the provincial party committee, the standard deputy ministerial level, and one foot has stepped into the provincial and ministerial level.
Just a few days ago, he and Zhang Xiaofan had a meeting, in which Zhang Xiaofan reminded himself that Secretary Liao of the Provincial Party Committee had mentioned him and knew about his classmate relationship with Zhang Xiaofan.
Zhang Xiaofan didn't say anything, but in the hint, Du Yuzhou didn't think too much, even if he knew that it was an opportunity, it was difficult for Du Yuzhou's temperament to behave too much.
So he didn't take the initiative to contact Zhang Xiaofan later, and the matter passed, he wanted to go with the flow, even if the opportunity was missed, he didn't regret it.
But now that Zhang Xiaofan actually appeared at this banquet, Du Yuzhou was difficult to understand.
People who have achieved such a high position are very aware of the influence of their identity and status, and private banquets are only attended after careful consideration.
As an old classmate, he participated in such a banquet, and knew that he was half a guest, but he did not greet himself in advance, Du Yuzhou's intuition was not simple.
And the accompanying person, the status is not low, the director of the education bureau in the district and a deputy director of the department, these two Du Yuzhou are very familiar with each other, and they often have work contacts.
Du Yuzhou clearly knew that Ji Heping's so-called apprenticeship banquet today was simply prepared for himself, and it had nothing to do with Chen Xuan.
And he is just the president of a university, what is the reason why he spends so much effort?
Du Yuzhou's surprise was fleeting, and he returned to his normal expression, pointing at Liu Wei, who was very familiar with him, and complained with a smile.
"Director Liu, you can really do it, you didn't inform me in advance, let so many leaders wait for me, ashamed, frightened, Du is here to accuse, accuse!"
After Ji Heping entered the room, his shy stomach was put back early, with a "sincere" smile on his face.
"Principal Du, today you are the protagonist, please take a ......"
The position next to Zhang Xiaofan is vacant, obviously reserved for Du Yuzhou, as for the so-called master of Ji Heping, he would not dare to sit on the main seat on such an occasion.
Du Yuzhou felt that it was not appropriate for him to sit in that position, and in hesitation, Zhang Xiaofan had already beckoned, "Yuzhou, come and sit." ”
Du Yuzhou had no choice but to accompany the others, made a nervous appearance and sat next to Zhang Xiaofan, and then asked in a low voice while others were greeting each other.
"Xiaofan, why are you here too?"
Zhang Xiaofan laughed in a low voice and said, "I'll talk about it later!"
Ji Peng was picked up by someone arranged by his father early, if it wasn't for someone who said that Chen Xuan was there, he would never have won this scene.
After I came, I found that it was all adults, and everyone looked like an official regardless of their clothing, demeanor, temperament, or style, so he said hello casually, and leaned on the sofa and broke his fingers boredly.
After Chen Xuan came in, his face was full of excitement, and he stood up and approached Chen Xuan, smiling with a sneer, "Master......"
Whether it is as a young man or as a former young man, Chen Xuan quite likes a young man with a personality like Ji Peng, who is bloody and pure, and has no scheming.
Ji Heping haha, introduced Chen Xuan to the big leaders on the scene, and everyone heard of this strange champion. And after the report of the two newspapers, it has recently become the gossip of high-level figures.
But when it comes to their status, Chen Xuan's identity is actually very insignificant, and being able to use it as a talking point has already given Chen Xuan enough face.
I don't know if Ji Heping intended it, or in order to elevate his son's status as a tutor, he directly shook out the fact that Chen Xuan was Du Yuzhou's godson.
This information is heavy enough, and the two leaders of the Education Bureau looked at Chen Xuan, as if they wanted to see Du Yuzhou's shadow from Chen Xuan's face.
And Zhang Xiaofan and Liu Wei, two old classmates, stared at Du Yuzhou, when did Lao Du recognize his godfather?
Du Yuzhou's personality The two classmates know each other very well, especially Liu Wei, not only he has a good relationship with Du Yuzhou, but their wives also have a close relationship.
But he had never heard that Du Yuzhou still had a godson, and his old classmates still had this secret to hide from him, and Liu Wei couldn't help complaining.
"Yuzhou, what's the situation, it's a tight secret!"
This was said very artistically, and the other three looked at Du Yuzhou with a smile and a word, waiting for Du Yuzhou's explanation.
Du Yuzhou was speechless, he knew in his heart that no matter what he said at this time, it would be difficult for them to believe his words, and he couldn't help complaining in his heart that Ji Heping shouldn't talk too much on such an occasion.
But without explanation, he really couldn't explain, so he had to say: "Cough, it was Shen Yun who recognized it, and it was also a recent thing......
Liu Wei saw Du Yuzhou's embarrassment, and laughed and teased, "Oh, then I'll rest assured, I'm still worried that Shen Yun doesn't know!"
Zhang Xiaofan didn't want Du Yuzhou to be so embarrassed, and smiled and instructed Ji Heping: "Ji Dong, can we start?"
Ji Heping hurriedly stood up and ordered the manager to serve the food, turned his face with a smile on his face, listened to the exchange of leaders, but refused to say a word.
After a while, the foreman walked in with four waitresses wearing Chinese-style purple and red embroidered cheongsam, each carrying a food box made of lacquered bamboo silk.
The dishes were served in a set of five-inch blue and white wrapped branches and longevity tableware, which was personally brought out by the female foreman, and after the dishes were arranged, the five of them bowed down and prepared to withdraw.
They turned off the wall lamps that had been turned on all the way one by one, leaving only the kind of tranquility and tranquility that the guests needed.
Chen Xuan has been observing Ji Heping, who is a person with strong communication skills.
When they greeted each other, Chen Xuan already knew the identities of the four people, and it could be said that they were all in important positions and were all figures of the real power.
Ji Heping can let these people sit together, which is an ability in itself, and on this occasion, he can be cautious in his words and deeds, which makes Chen Xuan look up to him very much.
However, Ji Heping's "revenge" on Du Yuzhou and himself without a trace, Chen Xuan could also see that he did it on purpose.
Doing so on this occasion is still a bit suspicious of a small belly, but fortunately it doesn't hurt.
Chen Xuan was only hypocritically flattered by everyone at the beginning, and several leaders gave Ji Heping a lot of face, and also encouraged Ji Peng a few words.
The so-called apprenticeship banquet also ended, not only Chen Xuan and Ji Peng, but even Ji Heping, the host, was ignored by the five people.
Chen Xuan was not surprised at all, he had also participated in this kind of banquet before, for two or three hours, sitting there, he didn't dare to respect, he didn't dare to eat the food, he dealt with it carefully, and everyone had to smirk when they saw themselves.
Fortunately, now that he is just a student, he doesn't have to care about their gaze at all, Ji Heping is pitiful, his smiling face is about to stiffen, but his eyes are shining and hiding his pride.
This kind of banquet, in fact, never talks about formal topics, the wine order walks in turns, as the wine glasses keep emptying, the atmosphere becomes lively, and the decibel of the sound gradually increases.
Because there are two children, everyone is obviously restraining their words, but they are still talking about women.
Chen Xuan felt that Ji Peng was not suitable to stay any longer, in fact, in the eyes of others, he was no different from Ji Peng.
He stood up and said to Du Yuzhou very naturally: "Dad, Ji Peng and I have eaten, let's go out for a walk, is it okay?"
A trace of embarrassment flashed on Du Yuzhou's face after hearing this, but he quickly covered up the embarrassment just right, "Okay, you go!"
Chen Xuan bowed slightly to everyone very decently, "Uncles, uncles, you eat slowly......"
In fact, several people should have been paying attention to Chen Xuan, the identity of the champion, and Du Yuzhou's godson, of course they are very interested in him.
Chen Xuan behaved very calmly, with a maturity that did not match his age, which was in stark contrast to Ji Peng, who had been sitting beside him as if he was sitting a pushpin under his buttocks.
Chen Xuan left the room with Ji Peng, who was like an amnesty, and Liu Wei couldn't help but joke about Du Yuzhou: "Yuzhou, your son is not ordinary!"
Zhang Xiaofan, as an old classmate, also joked: "What Liu Wei said is that this kid will become a great weapon in the future, and Yuzhou can be regarded as a successor......
As soon as Ji Peng came out of the wooden house, he suddenly recovered from his almost sluggish state, and couldn't help but make a jumping movement, landing on the wooden board of the cloister, making a loud bang, and spreading far away in the middle of the night.
The foreman in the distance immediately flashed out, and when he saw that it was them, he bowed down and waited in the distance, Chen Xuan glared at Ji Peng, who shrunk his neck and stuck out his tongue mischievously.
Under the guidance of the foreman, they came to the front hall and sat down in the guests' rest area.
He quickly took out the bag of soft China that had been opened from his pocket, and handed it to Chen Xuan diligently.
Chen Xuan took a puff and found the feeling before his rebirth, Bai Guihua was a high-end cigarette in the wage earner class at that time, but there was a big gap between it and Soft China.
Ji Peng also took one out and held it in his hand, pinching it back and forth, his expression was twisted, with a little apprehension, and there was obviously a pleading look in his eyes.
Chen Xuan smiled: "If you want to suck it, suck it!"
Ji Peng sighed happily, "Thank you, master, it's suffocating me." With that, he lit it and took a deep breath.
Chen Xuan waited for him to spit out the cigarette and asked, "Ji Peng, tell me, what do you mean?"
