Section 161 Opening the Heart (1)

When Ou Chenli walked into the hot pot restaurant, Lu Li was nodding his head and sending the guests who had finished eating out with a smile on his face, "Thank you for your patronage, you are welcome to come again next time." Okay, goodbye, goodbye. ”

Ou Chenli looked at his flattering smile, and felt sad for no reason, this kind of work is really difficult to do! She had seen him in the ring with her own eyes, and at that time, the swift and thunderous punches made the opponent fall to the ground, and his expression was solemn, or was it what he was? In order to make some money, why work so hard and wronged yourself?

"Miss Ou, are you here?" As if he had completely forgotten the awkward conversation between the two of them a few days ago, Lu Li approached him with a smile and greeted him with his usual hospitality, "What are you going to eat today?" ”

"Mr. Lu, do you have time tonight?"

"This ...... Yes, what? ”

"I'd like to talk to you and find a place, can you?"

“…………”

"Mr. Lu, don't get me wrong." Ou Chenli smiled coquettishly, Lu Li rarely saw her smile, two laugh lines exploded on her face like a spring flower, and her ruddy upper lip was slightly lifted, revealing two rows of snow-white neat teeth, "Today is my cousin's 30-year-old birthday, my second uncle asked me to come and invite you to attend the birthday party." ”

Lu Li was noncommittal, but he felt a little strange in his heart, Hong Kong people love life so much? Elders like Ou Pei Linying naturally don't need to be mentioned, such as Ou Chenli, and her cousin of Lao Shizi, who is young, how can they take life so seriously? "Mr. Lu, am I still waiting for you?"

"This, Miss Ou, I'm not very familiar with your cousin, so forget it, right?"

"How can this work, I didn't come for me, my second uncle asked me to come, you won't even give him face, right?"

Lu Li smiled bitterly, his impression of Ou Zihao was not bad, although he said that in the Ou family's mansion, there had been a debate on some things, and the two sides almost blushed, but it was for business, and in private terms, he still respected each other very much, "Okay, I'll be there at night." ”

"Oh no, you're mistaken, today's dinner isn't at my house. After all, this is my cousin's life! The dinner was to be held at his house. ”

Lu Li frowned and stared at the girl for a while, and Ou Chenli gave him a little hairy for no reason. If it was before, she would have glared back without hesitation, but now, she asked herself that her mentality towards Luli had changed, and she looked at him very shyly, blushed slightly, and said awkwardly: "You...... What are you staring at me for? I didn't lie to you? ”

"Okay, I'll just go. Do you still want to buy gifts? ”

"No, you don't have to, you're me...... Well, the guests invited by my second uncle don't have to give gifts. ”

"Then, you write me the address, and I'll take the car by myself when I get back."

"No, no, I'll take you there. I'll send you back when I go back. Save yourself from finding your home. ”

Luli smiled and nodded, "Okay then, I'll wait for you at night." ”

Ou Chenli was very happy, her eyebrows fluttered on her little face, and she looked like she was several years younger than her actual age, "Okay, it's decided, see you or leave." ”

Seeing her rush out of the store without looking back, Lu Li smiled helplessly, turned his head, and saw Xu Yunjian with a greedy look, looking at the girl's back, "Okay, everyone is far away, still looking?" ”

Xu Yunjian smiled, "Xiaoxiao, what is she doing again?" ”

"It seems that her cousin passed away, and her second uncle asked her to invite me to participate."

Xu Yunjian smacked his lips regretfully, full of reluctance, he walked to Lu Li's side and hugged his shoulder, "Hey, Xiaoxiao, you tell the truth, what do you think about this Miss Ou?" ”

"Xu Yunjian, don't talk nonsense! If Xiaowei knows about it over there, she has to be anxious with me! It's been so many years, you don't want to watch the two of us break up, do you? ”

"Nonsense, can I think of letting you and your sister-in-law separate?" Xu Yunjian glanced at him and said, "But, seriously, Xiaoxiao, I'll tell you this, if you really want her, I won't say a word." Our buddies have been friends for so many years, can we still break for a woman? ”

"I know, I don't have any thoughts about her, you can rest assured." Luli bumped into him and asked with a smile, "What, why don't you give up?" ”

"I don't know what's going on, I always miss her when there's something going on. But I looked at the hanging, and people didn't take me seriously at all. …… You say, "What shall I do?" ”

Lu Li didn't have time to speak, Cao Xun roared in front, "I don't know what you should do, now you work for me first!" Entertain guests to go. ”

Xu Yunjian smiled and pushed Lu Li, "Xiaoxiao, really, you know her better than me, go back and help me say a few good words?" ”

"Didn't say that."

Putting this matter aside, Lu Li called Gu Zhong over, "How is your uncle?" ”

"No problem." Gu Zhong said. Lu Li is going to Pengcheng again, and this time, he will transport the first batch of vegetables back, and at the same time see how the market reacts, therefore, there are two people who must go with him, one is Gu Quanyou, the other is Wei Laicai, and Gu Zhong said this is the matter, "When my second uncle went home a few days ago, he was still asking me, saying that if there was such a chance again, he wanted to call him, by the way, Brother Li, he asked me to ask, is it still the original price?" ”

"This time I had to cut it down a little bit, a round trip, plus shipping, a total of 3,600. When your second uncle comes, I will tell him personally. ”

"I understand, I understand, Pengcheng is not far away. Oh, how is Uncle Choi's over there? ”

"No problem, I've already told him in advance to put a break from trading for a day and come with us. If it doesn't work, it's mainly about listening to his opinion. After all, compared to us, people are experts! ”

After a day's delay, when it was close to dusk, Ou Chenli came in her red Ford, sat in the car with Lu Li, and went straight to Mid-Levels along the Cross Harbour Tunnel from Kowloon to Hong Kong.

Ou Chenli drove quite fast, but fortunately, the interior of the Ford car was spacious, and the environment was closed, so there would be no trembling noise, "That, I heard Mr. Xu say, you and you...... I'm sorry about the things between lovers? ”

"Oh, nothing, just a misunderstanding. And Xiaowei is soft-hearted, as long as she talks about it, she won't take it to heart. ”

Ou Chenli didn't say more, she drove the car with her head bored, until she arrived at Ou's Manor in the mid-mountainous area, and drove into the boulevard in the villa, she suddenly mustered up her courage and asked, "Mr. Lu, I ...... Isn't it ......?"

"What?"

Lu Li's voice was a little louder, so frightened that the girl quickly shut up, parked the car, and saw that he was about to get out of the car, Ou Chenli suddenly asked again, "That, I heard Mr. Xu say that you never forgive people who have offended you, right?" ”

"Well, it can't be counted, right?" The other party was talking, and Lu Li had no choice but to sit back in the car, "It turns out that I am indeed like this, and the current situation is much better." ”

"That, did Mr. Xu tell you ......?"

"Say what?"

"Say...... Say I'm ......"

Luli was curious, how did she talk today? "What did he say about you, he didn't say anything about you? Oh, I remembered, just right, I'm going to tell you about Xu Yunjian. ”

This time, Ou Chenli didn't know why, and looked at him with thick black eyebrows like a sword, "Talk about him?" ”

"Yes, Xu Yunjian is my best friend and buddy who grew up with me, to be honest, although the two of us were not born by the same mother, we are almost the same emotionally. He's a guy who sometimes has a ...... mouth That's it, but if you've been with him for a long time, you know that he has absolutely nothing to say to anyone! It's the kind of friend who is special, special, good. ”

An ominous omen rose in Ou Chenli's heart, and her eyes were not so kind, "You...... Why are you talking to me about this? ”

"I mean, if Miss Ou you have a partner now, I shouldn't have said these words, otherwise, you might as well consider him. Really, I can assure you...... Ay? How did you run? ”

Ou Chenli was full of anger, pushed the car door without saying a word, and ran in with a smoke; Lu Li stood there in a daze, really confused by the second monk. Following the girl into the hall, the environment here is slightly similar to Ou Pei Linying's house, the same crystal chandelier hanging low in the center of the main hall, although not as huge as the one seen in Xiangyunju, but it is also the same splendor. There were already some guests in the hall, all young people, or holding champagne, or holding cigars and cigarettes, talking happily and relaxedly.

Luley could hear them speaking a foreign language, which he couldn't understand at all, and he didn't know any guests, so he walked to the side of the table and picked up a shrimp ball and stuffed it into his mouth. He really loves to eat this kind of thing, and every time he eats it, he feels like a starving ghost reincarnated, and he stops when he sees that there are fewer and fewer shrimp balls on his plate.

Walking a few steps to the side, he intuitively found that someone was looking at him, turned his head to look, met a familiar face, thought about it, and recognized the other party, it was Liu Ao who came to the store with Ou Chenli to check the accounts, he was a clerk of what Wilney accounting firm, with an overly obvious melon seed face, pointed chin, and a very clean beard. He was oily, with smooth black hair, and he didn't know how much wax he had smeared, and it seemed to be glowing in the light.

Making eye contact with him, Liu Ao smiled, "Mr. Lu, it's been a long time." ”

"Hello, Mr. Liu."

"I didn't expect to see Mr. Lu here again." Liu Ao put the goblet in his hand back into the tray and walked a few steps towards him, "Are you also here to attend Roger's birthday dinner?" ”

"Roger? Oh, yes. Why, Mr. Liu too? ”

"No, I'm not." Liu Ao raised his pointed chin and smiled in a shrill voice, "I was talking to Mr. Ou about the accounts, and the matter was not finished, so it was not good to leave here, so it was a grand event." ”

He spoke with a lot of English words, Lu Li frowned, referred to the context of the relationship, and made a half-understanding, "What, in addition to going to my small shop with Miss Ou to check the accounts, Mr. Liu is also responsible for Mr. Ou's affairs?" ”

"Actually, when I went to Mr. Lu's side, I was at the request of frequent requests." Liu Ao said with a shrill smile: "However, Mr. Lu, I am very curious about something, I don't know if I can ask you?" ”

Lu Li called Ou Chenli so affectionately that he felt a little uncomfortable! He didn't dare to think about it anymore, and asked with a smile: "Of course you can, of course you can ask." ”

"You know, I am an expert in capital operation, and I have heard me frequently afterwards that you took out more than 60,000 Hong Kong dollars and brought it back to the mainland, right?"

Lu Li's expression immediately became alert, although this is already a yellow flower, what does it have to do with him Liu Ao? What was his purpose in inquiring about such a thing?

Liu Ao saw it, waved his hand, and said, "Mr. Lu, don't get me wrong, I'm just curious." As one of your fellows said at the beginning, no matter how long the ICAC's hand is, it will not reach the mainland. So, you don't have to worry about anything. ”

"What the hell are you trying to say?"

"I want to say, Mr. Lu, I appreciate your approach."

"Huh?"

Liu Ao raised his pointed chin high, smiled and nodded, "That's right, although I can't encourage you to do this, but seriously, I appreciate your bold approach, it's great!" ”

At eight o'clock, the protagonist of the banquet finally appeared, Ou Jiahai wore a black evening dress and walked down the stairs side by side with Ou Chenli. It was the first time Lu Li had seen him, and he looked at him seriously, he was tall, although he knew that he had reached the age of standing, but because he was thin, he looked a few years younger.

Different from Nai's father's immature child's face, Ou Jiahai has a square-character face, with two mustaches on his upper lip, and while talking to his sister, he greeted his friends and guests who came to celebrate his birthday with a smile, "Welcome, welcome." ”

Lu Li asked himself if he was not familiar with him, and it was not easy to squeeze in front of people, he looked up, and met Ou Chenli's looking eyes, the two of them made eye contact, the girl smiled and nodded, and accompanied her cousin down the last flight of stairs; Lu Li unexpectedly discovered at this time that Ou Jiahai was a small man, much shorter than his cousin!

The guests dispersed, and Ou Chenli took Ou Jiahai's arm with a smile and walked forward, "Roger, this is Mr. Lu." ”

"Ah," Ou Jiahai nodded understandingly, obviously having heard others mention this name more than once, and shook hands with Lu Li, "Welcome, Mr. Lu." ”

"Happy life." Luli took out a gift box from his bosom and handed it to him, "Be careful." ”

Ou Chenli was stunned, she had told him during the day that she didn't want him to bring gifts, but she still prepared it? Ou Jiahai didn't think about it, opened the gift box, and it was a pair of gold-plated cufflinks, "Thank you, Mr. Lu, you have a heart." ”

Ou Chenli gave her cousin a look, and the short man smiled, "You and you are familiar with each other, the two of you can talk, and I'll go greet the guests." ”

Watching Ou Jiahai walk away, Ou Chenli's face flushed for no reason, and when she looked at Lu Li under the shadow of the lamp, a burst of sweetness rippled in her heart, "Thank you, I didn't expect that you would prepare a gift." ”

"It's nothing, your family is alive, it's as it should be." Lu Li nodded to her, "Miss Ou, if there is nothing else, I want to take my leave." ”

"Ah, don't ......, wait a little longer, right?" Ou Chenli really didn't want to let him leave like this, and said a little anxiously: "You...... Isn't the store over? ”

"Yes, it's over, but there are a lot of small things to go back to. In addition, I have to go back to the mainland tomorrow. Can't stay too late. ”

Ou Chenli bit her lower lip tightly with a mouthful of snow-white teeth, and soon obvious marks appeared, and her expression began to turn cold, and said, "I hope this is not your excuse." Without waiting for Lu Li to speak, she immediately said, "Mr. Lu, you ...... Do you hate me very much? ”

Luli tilted his head and actually thought about it very seriously, "No, I don't hate you. It's just that some of them can't be eaten by you. ”

"What?"
