Chapter 4: The Birthday Banquet
There were two companies of this force, about 200 men, all of whom were currently on board.
Pang Jindong had no choice but to make adjustments to the original plan, allowing these troops to disembark and temporarily settle in City B, of course, they could not carry weapons and equipment, and the cruise ship sailed directly to Pakistan.
After the CBD project, Dongyao Company began to develop a high-end residential community, named "Dongyao Garden".
Although the scale is small, it is in the golden mile and close to the CBD project.
Now that it is nearing completion, the residents are starting to move in one after another.
According to the customary practice of the industry, Han Feng set aside a building, planning to wait until the entire community is completed, raise the price before selling, and now it happens to be used as a dormitory for this group of people.
Pang Jindong did not let Miss Parker move into his house, but arranged a separate room for her in the dormitory.
Although he promised to arrange a job for her, Pang Jindong had no idea what to do, so he could only let him act as his assistant.
The concept of "assistant" has a wide range of meanings, from the company to the corps, and the affairs are within the scope of duties, which is very suitable for Miss Parker.
After settling these things, Pang Jindong had a phone call with Shen Hao and Qin Xiaotian to discuss the next development plan.
After Pang Jindong returned to China, although he didn't have time to see Qin Xiaotian, he visited his godfather as soon as possible, and then, accompanied by him and Shen Jiayao, held a grand burial ceremony for his parents in a luxurious cemetery on the outskirts of Beijing.
When he saw that his parents' ashes finally fell into the land of the motherland, Pang Jindong felt that his long-term wish had finally come to an end, as if he had moved away a heavy stone in his heart.
The spiritual power that has supported Pang Jindong for many years turned into smoke in an instant, making Pang Jindong feel paralyzed and almost sat on the ground.
The Shen father and daughter, who had been separated from Pang Jindong's parents for a long time, looked very sad, Shen Jiayao was crying indecently at the time, and Shen Hao was much older in an instant, and sighed: "I didn't expect that after so many years, I came back and was already separated by yin and yang......"
After leaving the country for such a long time, the group's various affairs pressed up like a mountain, and Pang Jindong originally wanted to deal with some more, but was interrupted by Masaharu Kazama's knock on the door.
"Sir......" Masaharu Kazama opened a crack in the door, first poked his head in, and then moved his body timidly in, and told Pang Jindong: "Someone wants to see you!"
"Who?"
Masaharu Kazama reluctantly said a name: "Tang Yun!"
After Tang Yun returned to China, she went back to her home, Pang Jindong saw that it was not early, and he didn't know what was going on with her.
When Pang Jindong came to the living room, Tang Yun was sitting on the sofa chatting with Nagano Fenghua, they had a good relationship, although Nagano Fenghua was strong in martial arts, but she was simple-minded, except for Pang Jindong, she listened to Tang Yun's words very much.
Lin Peiwen had already returned, frowning and looking at Tang Yun, obviously not having a good impression of her.
Pang Jindong sat opposite Tang Yun and asked straight to the point: "What are you doing?"
"Wouldn't it be welcome to come and visit?" Tang Yun said, smiling, in the eyes of men, he was a model of charm, and in the eyes of Lin Peiwen next to him, he was the embodiment of a fox spirit.
"You can't afford to be early!" Pang Jindong muttered in a low voice, and then replied: "I just think that if you have something, you can call and let your daughter toss it, I can't bear it!"
"It seems that you care about people very much!" Tang Yun said, his smile deepened and made a "gurgling" sound.
Tang Yun actually blatantly coquettished in front of the other three girls, which made Pang Jindong suddenly a little overwhelmed: "You are my partner, of course you have to care!"
"So I'm giving you a chance now to take good care of me!" Tang Yun pointed to a pile of things on the ground and told Pang Jindong: "I decided to move to your house!"
"Huh?" Pang Jindong was dumbfounded when he heard this, and looked in the direction of Tang Yun's finger, only to notice that she was coming with luggage.
"I'm still worried that the surname Chen will be bad for me, and living here with you can ensure safety......" Tang Yun lowered his head, frowned slightly, and made a look of embarrassment, which was really pitiful.
Pang Jindong scratched his head and made a more embarrassed look: "I remember you said that Chen Yubo can't do anything to you in China!"
"Everything is afraid of ......" Tang Yun's eyes suddenly flashed a gleam, slowly glanced at the other three girls, and said meaningfully: "If you feel really inconvenient, I can stay with you for a few days, and then go home for a few days, just like that......"
Tang Yun's gaze and tone deliberately showed a little ambiguity, Pang Jindong could of course notice it, and hurriedly explained: "Convenient!
Seeing that Pang Jindong really hit the plan, Tang Yun stepped up his offensive: "And living with you, we can communicate, plan or revise the plan at any time...... All in all it was easy to do anything......"
The meaning of "anything" is too broad, and the other three girls in the room originally had different feelings about Tang Yun's coquettishness, but at this time, they inadvertently reached a consensus on this sentence, and looked at Pang Jindong nervously together.
Pang Jindong didn't have so many associations, but he felt that there were already a lot of girls in the family, and one more Tang Yun was nothing, so he instructed Masaharu Kazama: "Arrange a room for your sister Tang!"
In fact, the woman Pang Jindong really cares about now is Jin Lingling, since Pang Jindong returned to China, Jin Lingling has been hiding from her.
Pang Jindong, who was confused, was helpless, and even planned to kill the Jin family mansion directly.
However, Pang Jindong had no opinion, and inadvertently ran into Jin Lingling.
At that time, Pang Jindong was entertaining several guests in a hotel, all of whom were high-ranking political officials, and they had a great say in New Century's shareholding in China Merchants Bank.
After the guests and hosts were happy, Pang Jindong sent the guests away and found that a birthday banquet was being held in the lobby of the hotel.
A banner was put up at the scene of the birthday banquet, and it can be seen from it that this is for an old man named Cheng Hechu.
The old man was already in his old age, given the title of professor, and was clearly a scholar.
Pang Jindong has a lot of disdain for those so-called scholars in contemporary China, many of whom deceive the world and steal their reputations, and they do not see the demeanor of scholars, but are full of profiteers' philistine spirit.
But this old man was not, he was plainly dressed, with a generous and elegant temperament, and a kind smile on his face.
Therefore, Pang Jindong looked at it twice, but he was surprised to find that Jin Lingling was here, stretching her neck, looking at the old man with a smile.
Pang Jindong quietly walked to Jin Lingling's side and coughed softly.
Jin Lingling looked back and saw that it was Pang Jindong, and she was startled, and almost jumped up from her seat.
To Pang Jindong's surprise, Jin Lingling's first sentence after seeing him was: "Did you call my sister?"
Pang Jindong replied: "I ...... I haven't had time to tell her about returning to China!"
Jin Lingling reacted at this time, pursed her lips in embarrassment, and asked after a moment of silence: "Why are you here?"
"You are a policeman, if I follow you and you don't find out, it means that criminals also have a chance!" Speaking of this, Pang Jindong lowered his voice: "It's okay to say anything else, I'm worried that you will be rob......bed."
Jin Lingling muttered in a low voice: "Except for you, no one dares to rob my ......."
The two of them were talking here, and they were seen by Cheng Hechu, who was talking to the guests over there, slowly pacing over, looking at Pang Jindong, and then asked Jin Lingling with a smile: "Is it your friend?"
"Yes...... My friend...... I happened to meet here!" Jin Lingling looked at Pang Jindong and said this sentence hesitantly.
Cheng Hechu looked at the two young people, and there were two more points of understanding in his smile, and then he stretched out his hand to Pang Jindong: "Introduce yourself, old Cheng Hechu!"
Pang Jindong and Cheng Hechu shook hands, and when they saw that the other party was talking in an ancient style, they simply followed suit and said: "The younger generation Pang Jindong happened to pass by today, and I didn't know that the old man was doing a birthday, and he didn't prepare a gift, so he could only wish the old man a blessing such as the East China Sea and a longevity than Nanshan." ”
"You can teach!" Cheng Hechu nodded, and asked again: "What do you do?"
"I ...... Start a small business!"
Cheng Hechu was very interested in Pang Jindong's table, and asked, "What business?"
"I am a shareholder of Imperial Holdings. Pang Jindong was reluctant to reveal his identity, so he only said that he was a shareholder, and the concept of shareholder can be large or small, as big as the chairman of the board of directors, and as small as a small retail investor with tens of thousands of yuan in share capital.
It's just that the shareholder of the Imperial Holding Group is actually only Pang Jindong.
"...... Imperial Holding Group" Cheng Hechu frowned slightly, as if searching for the name in his memory, but in the end he still didn't remember: "What kind of enterprise?"
"We are mainly engaged in capital operation, looking for companies with investment value, and then injecting capital into them to make a profit from the development of enterprises. Pang Jindong replied, while secretly complaining in his heart: "This Professor Cheng is really curious, and he asks about everything." He hadn't heard of the Imperial Holding Group, and he should be the kind of true scholar who doesn't listen to what is going on outside the window. ”
Although Pang Jindong didn't understand, Jin Lingling could see that Cheng Hechu had misunderstood the relationship between himself and Pang Jindong, and hurriedly interrupted and said, "I'm sorry, Uncle Cheng, your birthday banquet is almost over, and I still have something urgent to deal with!"
"Go, go!" Cheng Hechu waved his hand and said with a smile: "Go and do your business!"
"Uncle Cheng, goodbye!" Jin Lingling heard that she had been pardoned, and she pulled up Pang Jindong's shirt and was about to slip away.
Cheng Hechu told in the back: "Lingling, come to the house to play ...... free" Before the words were finished, the two of them were gone.
Out of the banquet hall, the two of them walked to the parking lot, and Jin Lingling let out a long breath: "It's good to slip away!"
Pang Jindong glanced at Jin Lingling, and asked with a little dissatisfaction: "Are you worried that Uncle Cheng will mistake me for your boyfriend?"
Jin Lingling did not answer this question, but introduced Cheng Hechu: "Uncle Cheng is my grandfather'......s old subordinate, and he has a very good relationship with our family, so it can be said that he watched me grow up."
Pang Jindong asked strangely: "Uncle Cheng should be engaged in scientific research, but your grandfather is a soldier!"
Jin Lingling hesitated, looked around, and still said: "My grandfather once led the national defense scientific research work, and Uncle Cheng is the best naval expert in our country. ”
Pang Jindong's mind suddenly flashed with inspiration, and he asked tentatively: "If you have the opportunity, can you arrange for me and Uncle Cheng to meet alone?"
"What are you going to do?" Jin Lingling's purpose in saying these words was originally to divert the topic, but she didn't expect the listener to have the intention. What made her especially strange was that Pang Jindong's words deliberately emphasized the word "alone".
"What I want to do, you'll know when the time comes!" Pang Jindong took a deep breath and said slowly: "But you must keep it secret afterwards!"
Hearing Pang Jindong say this, Jin Lingling's interest was also aroused: "Okay, I'll arrange it for you!"
The matter was settled, and there was silence between the two men.
Jin Lingling walked to her car and told Pang Jindong: "If nothing happens, I'll go home!"
"You ......" Pang Jindong never thought of himself as a cowardly person, but at this time, he didn't know why he became a little lacking in courage, which he had never had in the past when he fought in the rain of bullets. After being silent for a long time, Pang Jindong took a few deep breaths and asked, "Why do you always hide from me?"
"I ......" This time it was Jin Lingling's turn to lack courage and didn't know how to answer Pang Jindong. In the end, she used a very cliché excuse, perfunctory: "I'm busy!"
"Are you busier than me?" Pang Jindong rarely lowered his head, but at this time, he lowered his head and looked at the earth in confusion. "The first person I sued when I returned to China was you......"
"You...... Why didn't you sue my sister?"
Pang Jindong understood when he heard this, Jin Lingling made up her mind to be a love Lei Feng.
Lu Jing is a good girl, Pang Jindong has a certain affection for her, but he does not have any obligations, which is different from Jin Lingling.
"Lu Jing is my good friend......" Pang Jindong said while peeking at Jin Lingling's expression change: "But I have a lot of friends, and it is impossible to notify them all in time!"
"My sister has to call me every day and ask when you will come back!" Jin Lingling shook her head, revealing a little helplessness in her tone, and more sourness: "I am also your good friend, why do I have such a detailed grasp of your whereabouts? But I just know! My sister understood this and came to ask me, although she wouldn't say anything, but I knew that she was uncomfortable!"
"I'm not a ball that can be kicked around casually, at least a ball with my own thoughts and feelings!" Pang Jindong said, helping Jin Lingling open the car door. "Goodbye!"
These high-ranking children, rich daughters, and there are many excellent suitors of all kinds around them, and they should learn to play feelings, at least not so infatuated, but Pang Jindong just ran into an alternative among them.
