Chapter 378: Jockey Club Dinner

The dinner was held at the Jockey Club Headquarters in Happy Valley. The annual Jockey Club Gala Dinner is a celebration of the Club's approximately 20,000 members, many of whom take the opportunity to meet new people and expand their social horizons.

The people who can enter the Jockey Club Club are not ordinary people, they are generally celebrities with status and status. Of course, money is absolutely indispensable, and those who can enter the Jockey Club club have at least hundreds of millions of net worth. Horse racing is a more expensive hobby than famous cars and yachts, and you can never afford to play it with less money.

Therefore, the people who can attend the Jockey Club dinner are not ordinary people. When Xiao Ping and Zhang Yuxin arrived outside the Jockey Club headquarters in Happy Valley, they found that there were luxury cars of various brands parked here, and it was unique for the two of them to take a taxi.

After getting out of the car, Xiao Ping didn't care about the surprised eyes of others, he tidied up his clothes, and then helped Zhang Yuxin out of the car gracefully.

Today's Zhang Yuxin is wearing a blue Western-style dress, and the fitted cut completely sets off her perfect figure, making Zhang Yuxin even more slender and slender. Coupled with her cold and pretty face and noble temperament, although she only came out of the taxi, she immediately killed other female guests.

Although Xiao Ping is not the most handsome of the male guests, his majestic demeanor is not something that can be pretended to be casual, which also makes many people look sideways at him.

So when Xiao Ping and Zhang Yuxin came to the door of the Jockey Club, the doorman was also very polite to them, bowed slightly and asked, "Hello two, do you have an invitation?"

Jockey Clubs are private clubs, and of course invitations are required for dinners like this. Although the two of them didn't have any invitations at all, Zhang Yuxin said unhurriedly: "It was Mr. Tian Daoming who invited us here." You can call him to check, my name is Zhang Yuxin. ”

Tin is one of the Club's most famous members. He has several of his horses that have won first prizes in various races, as well as one of the fastest horses in the club's history, White Lightning. It is said that Tien Daoming is very hopeful to be elected as the next president of the Jockey Club. For such a promising young man, no member of the Jockey Club staff dared to take it lightly.

So when I heard Zhang Yuxin say that Tian Daoming invited her to come, the staff naturally didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly said politely: "Miss Zhang, please wait a moment, I'll go and ask Mr. Tian now." ”

The staff quickly finished calling, but instead of letting the two in immediately, he asked them to wait at the door.

Zhang Yuxin was still a little dazed about this, but Xiao Ping pouted disdainfully and said, "Look, this guy is going to be a demon moth again!"

It didn't take long for Xiao Ping to say this. Tian Daoming, who was dressed in a white suit, appeared in the sight of the two, and it turned out that he personally came out to pick up Zhang Yuxin after receiving the call. Xiao Ping had an expression of "I knew the Dao" and sneered at Zhang Yuxin: "Look, I'm not wrong, right?"

However, Xiao Ping expected that Tian Daoming would be courteous, but Tian Daoming didn't expect him to come at all. Tian Daoming, who was full of smiles, walked closer to see Xiao Ping, and his smile involuntarily suffocated, and even his pace slowed down.

Speaking of which, Xiao Ping was very impressed by Tian Daoming. In his memory, he had never been so embarrassed as he was at the orchid show. Afterwards, Tian Daoming also wanted to take revenge on Xiao Ping, but in the end he was delayed by other things. He has not implemented his own plan.

Tian Daoming thought that Xiao Ping was just an episode, and he would never have the chance to see this annoying guy in the future. Who thought that Xiao Ping actually came to the Jockey Club dinner with Zhang Yuxin, which made Tian Daoming have a second-fast thought in his mind: Could it be that Zhang Yuxin is really with this man?

Although Tian Daoming had all kinds of dissatisfaction in his heart, he quickly adjusted his emotions. smiled and walked over to the two, and first said to Zhang Yuxin: "Yuxin, I haven't seen you for several months." Your complexion is so good, and you're getting more and more beautiful. ”

"Thank you for your compliment. Mr. Tian. Zhang Yuxin was not as enthusiastic as Tian Daoming, and a cold "Mr. Tian" opened the distance between the two without a trace.

However, Tian Daoming is not a person who will give up easily. He pretended not to hear the coldness in Zhang Yuxin's tone, and actually wanted to kiss Zhang Yuxin's hand.

Where would Xiao Ping let Tian Daoming succeed, he appeared in time to hold Tian Daoming's hand, and smiled very enthusiastically: "Thank you Mr. Tian for the invitation, Yu Xin and I have the opportunity to come to this kind of place to open our eyes." ”

Being interrupted by Xiao Ping like this, Tian Daoming naturally couldn't continue his movements, so he could only pull back his hand and laughed: "I didn't expect Yu Xin to bring a guest, this gentleman doesn't know what you call it?"

This is completely Tian Daoming deliberately pretending to be stupid, he has already asked people to investigate Xiao Ping, how could he not know his name? However, Xiao Ping didn't seem to care about this, and replied with a smile: "My surname is Xiao, Xiao Ping, and I do some vegetable business in Su City and the provincial capital. Small business can't get into Mr. Tian's eyes. ”

"Phew, it's just a vegetable seller, and you still dare to fight with me for a woman!" Although Tian Daoming knew Xiao Ping's background a few days ago, now that he heard him say it himself, he couldn't help but scold in his heart: "When Ye Dexiang's trouble is solved, I will concentrate on dealing with you, and keep it so that you want to die, and when you hear the words 'Tian Daoming' in the future, your whole body will tremble!"

Don't look at Tian Daoming scolding Xiao Ping in his heart, but on the surface, he still looked polite, and said to the two with a smile: "Please come with me, you two, there are many distinguished guests here today, and I have the opportunity to introduce a few to you." ”

In fact, for Zhang Yuxin, it is very beneficial to be able to show up to her business on such an occasion. Before, because it was Tian Daoming who sent an invitation, she was reluctant to come. Now that Xiao Ping is with her, Zhang Yuxin's worries are gone, and she soon gives full play to her true qualities as a strong woman. After Tian Daoming led the two into the lobby of the Jockey Club headquarters, she quickly chatted and laughed with a few familiar guests, expanding her network of relationships without a trace.

Compared with Zhang Yuxin, Xiao Ping is still not very suitable for such an occasion. He stood in the corner of the hall with a wine glass, and no one took the initiative to talk to the stranger.

However, Xiao Ping didn't care about this, the purpose of his coming today was not to make a relationship, but to take a good look at Tian Daoming. Of course, it would be more ideal if Tian Daoming could be annoyed and forced to make some mistakes. Xiao Ping had long made up his mind that as long as he found any evidence of Tian Daoming's violation, he would immediately use his position in the national security to bring him to justice. Anyway, Xiao Ping's purpose is to let Tian Daoming go to jail, and he doesn't bother to care about why he went in for any reason.

Xiao Ping soon discovered that he had really come to the right place this time. Not long after the dinner began, he found another old acquaintance by Tian Daoming's side-Lin Minghua.

At the beginning, Lin Minghua and Luo Qian, the son of the county magistrate of Changfeng County, were embarrassed and wanted to forcibly demolish Xiao Ping's farm to build a golf course. Later, Xiao Ping designed to send Luo Qian's father and son to prison, and Lin Minghua disappeared. However, because of that incident, Xiao Ping has never had a good impression of this guy, and he didn't expect to be able to see him here again.

Xiao Ping carefully observed the movements of Tian Daoming and Lin Minghua, and found that these two guys were obviously closely related. From time to time, the two of them would come together and talk in low voices, and often exchange glances with each other that only they could understand.

In fact, in the banquet hall with many guests, Tian Daoming and Lin Minghua's behavior was very low-key. If Xiao Ping hadn't deliberately paid attention to Tian Daoming, he wouldn't have discovered the abnormality of these two people.

Looking at Tian Daoming and Lin Minghua, who seemed to have a particularly close relationship, Xiao Ping couldn't help muttering to himself: "What is the relationship between these two people, are they good friends? No, Tian Daoming is pursuing Yu Xin, because he shouldn't like this tune." And Lin Minghua is fat and ugly, Tian Daoming really wants to make a base and won't look for him, otherwise how heavy will this taste be?"

Xiao Ping observed the two of them, and couldn't help but imagine the situation when Lin Minghua and Tian Daoming were intimately together, and then couldn't help but shiver. However, it was such a shiver, but it made Xiao Ping have a flash of inspiration in his mind, and finally thought of the relationship behind this matter.

Xiao Ping remembered that Lin Zukang had inadvertently mentioned that Lin Minghua was one of his distant nephews. Don't look at him as the boss of Hong Kong's Lin Group on the surface, but in fact, Lin Group is also Lin Zukang's industry.

Since Lin Minghua is also from Nanyang, it is not surprising that he has a connection with the Nanyang Triad. Coupled with the good relationship between Lin Huaming and Tian Daoming, Tian Daoming sent someone to assassinate Ye Dexiang can also be explained - it is very likely that he did this to help Lin Huaming. Considering Tian Daoming's personality, he would never take such a risk for his friends. The most likely situation is that he and Lin Minghua colluded to do something unseemly, and Ye Dexiang's plan to buy land may expose the two of them, so they will try to kill him many times.

At this moment, Xiao Ping finally strung together many clues such as Ye Dexiang's land purchase, Nanyang Triad, Lin Minghua, Tian Daoming, etc., and made an inference that could explain everything. The only problem is that he still doesn't know what Lu Daotian Daoming and Lin Minghua have done, so that they don't hesitate to kill people to keep this secret.

Xiao Pingzheng was thinking about whether to tell Old Man Lin about his speculation first, and let him take the initiative to investigate Lin Minghua's problem, or wait until there was conclusive evidence to deal a fatal blow to Tian Daoming and Lin Minghua.

Just when Xiao Ping was hesitating, Tian Daoming, who was whispering to Lin Minghua, noticed him. Looking at Xiao Ping, who was standing alone at the edge of the hall, a trace of cruelty flashed in Tian Daoming's eyes.

Zhang Yuxin is beautiful and noble, her own ability is also very good, and more importantly, she has a prominent family background, which is undoubtedly an ideal partner for Tian Daoming. Therefore, Tian Daoming must not watch Xiao Ping take Zhang Yuxin away, and he must fight with him no matter what. If Xiao Ping can be allowed to make a fool of himself here, it may make Zhang Yuxin reconsider his relationship with him.

Thinking of this, a sneer also appeared at the corner of Tian Daoming's mouth, and he slowly walked towards Xiao Ping with a wine glass. (To be continued.) )
