Chapter 32: The Birthday Banquet (Part II)
Xue Xuezhi's mother is a noble lady in her thirties, her name is Wang Yuying, wearing a loose openwork flower dress, with a noble and graceful temperament, and elegant conversation, it is no wonder that she can teach a daughter who is born with a beautiful temperament.
Xue Xuezhi's parents didn't care about Chen Ming's family background, in their eyes, as long as their daughter was happy and willing, it didn't matter if the other party was poor, anyway, their Xue family could afford it, so at the beginning of the banquet, this point of view was revealed intentionally or unintentionally, but the others who confirmed the two of them but were present didn't think so.
Not long after the banquet began, a man stood up, in a small suit, bow, his hair was neatly combed back, and then smeared with hairspray, he looked clean and clean, and his face was quite delicate...... Be...... Brother Chen Shubao, when we met for the first time, my name is Xue Chuan, and I am Xuezhi's cousin. ”
This Xuezhi's cousin is worthy of the blood of the Xue family, and he is also handsome. Chen Ming always had a humble and low-profile smile on his face, quickly got up, put the wine glass very low, politely touched this Xue Chuan gently, and then drank the full wine in the glass.
Seeing that Chen Ming was so polite, Xue Chuan didn't dare to be ambiguous, after all, several uncles and aunts were watching, and the etiquette on the wine table was indispensable, so he quickly filled a glass again, and then drank it all.
After drinking this glass of wine, Xue Chuan immediately began to feel difficult, only to see him slowly put the wine glass on the table, and then asked seemingly intentionally or unintentionally: "I don't know what Brother Shubao does in the house?"
This sentence immediately made many people present stop their chopsticks, and their eyes fell on Chen Ming, staring at him intently and listening.
Obviously, everyone is very concerned about Chen Ming's family environment.
You must know that the girl beside him, but a very famous beauty in the whole Jinling, before the age of sixteen, there is a large group of local tyrants who are lined up to get married, if there is not enough energy behind this Chen Shubao in front of him, those of them who are relatives and friends will not agree to let Xue Xuezhi, the little princess, follow Chen Ming.
The atmosphere of the banquet suddenly cooled down, because almost everyone was waiting for Chen Ming's answer.
Even including Xue Xuezhi's parents, although the two elders didn't care too much about Chen Ming's family situation, after all, they were the husbands chosen by their daughters, and they still wanted to know more or less.
"Uh......" Xue Xuezhi obviously hasn't adapted to this feeling of being someone else's girlfriend, she suddenly saw that all her relatives and friends were pointing the finger at Chen Ming, and she was suddenly a little speechless, she wanted to say something to ease the atmosphere of the scene, but she was helpless, she really couldn't think of anything good to say, so she could only "uh-huh" twice, and then pouted.
Of course Chen Ming knew what this cousin named Xue Chuan meant, Xue Xuezhi had already mentioned it before, Xue Chuan wanted to match Xue Xuezhi and Ji Jingchen without success, and now that he appeared, he naturally became his number one enemy.
"Me?" Chen Ming squinted, the smile on his face was harmless, "My family runs a wholesale store, there is nothing to say." ”
When Chen Ming finished saying this, he could obviously hear a small "cut" from the scene.
The voice, extremely discordant, suddenly appeared at the table, with a contemptuous tone and a haughty attitude, although the volume was very quiet, but the tone was extremely high, so that everyone could hear it clearly.
The atmosphere at the scene dropped to freezing point in an instant, and the relatives and friends of the Xue family looked at each other, not knowing who made such a sound.
How tall is Chen Ming, can't this kind of voice still smell like this? I saw that his smile was quite playful, his eyes staring at the man sitting diagonally above him, and there was no trace of shame on his face because of that "cut".
What is there to be ashamed of in the wholesale store? The Chen family's business up and down is miscellaneous and numerous, and there is nothing in the huge Chen empire? Private clubs, bars, KTVs, underground casinos, real estate investment, loan sharks, large restaurant chains, online games, underground dog rings, and even the oil and gas fields that Chen Changsheng is developing in the northwest, as well as the Chen family's underground armed institutions, arsenals, and so on, are huge in scale and in quantity, and which one is not "mass production" or "wholesale"? Which one is not a weapon for attracting money? With so many businesses, in the eyes of Chen Gongzi, it can indeed only be regarded as a wholesale store, but the scale is a bit exaggerated.
The man Chen Ming was staring at was Yi Yonghai, who made a discordant voice just now, that is, the son of a Jiangsu real estate tycoon.
Seeing Chen Ming staring at himself, Yi Yonghai was also a little embarrassed, especially Chen Ming's eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, which made him fidget for a while, creepy, Zuihou had to pick up the wine glass and politely toast Chen Ming with a glass of wine before resolving the embarrassment.
However, after sitting down, Yi Yonghai patted his head, no! Who is he Yi Yonghai? His family is engaged in real estate, with assets of hundreds of millions of yuan, and he has already invested several pieces of land for him, and as long as he builds a house, he will earn tens of millions of yuan when he sells it, which is enough to worry about food and clothing for a lifetime. With such a superior background, he was actually bluffed by the kid who opened a wholesale store in front of him, which was really embarrassing!
However, after all, this is Uncle Xue Yi's home, and as a nephew, he doesn't dare to make too much of a mistake.
"Hmph, the one who opened the wholesale store still dares to drag it like this, see if Lao Tzu won't ask someone to demolish your store one day......" Yi Yonghai cursed in his mouth, and his face returned to a peaceful smile.
