Chapter 503: Turmoil (2)
Hearing my promise, Zhou Lei told me the address, and it was still at the Triumph Palace Hotel.
Hung up the phone, I asked Wang Bin and them to take Lu Xiaoyu back to Shengchang Street first, Lu Xiaoyu didn't say anything about this, today there was an "assassin" incident, I don't dare to take her with me anymore, there are more brothers on Shengchang Street, plus Wang Bin and others to take care of it, it is relatively safer.
When we were about to separate, Wang Bin asked the tanuki to follow, he said, although the thug is good, but after all, he is alone, and if he brings one more person, I will be safer.
I also nodded and didn't say anything.
When we arrived at the gate of the Triumph Palace, the manager of the hotel was already waiting at the gate, or he personally opened the door for me.
I smiled at him and said, "Manager Wu, my face is too big, let you personally come and open the door for me." ”
When I got out of the car, I looked at the sign on his chest and knew what his last name was.
The manager surnamed Wu hurriedly smiled: "Crazy man, you are laughing, it is our honor that a little person like us can come to pick you up." ”
In fact, I knew that this was probably Zhou Lei's arrangement, but I didn't point it out.
Manager Wu took us upstairs, it was a VIP box on the top floor, and there were two etiquette ladies wearing long cheongsams standing at the door.
As soon as we arrived at the door, the two hostesses called me respectfully: "Crazy master, and then open the door of the box for me in unison." ”
Entering the box, the first thing that caught my eye was a table of good dishes, and then I saw a woman in a white tight dress standing next to the dining cabinet in one corner of the box, her long straight hair hung down to her back, and when the box door opened, she just turned around, her appearance belonged to the kind of small and fresh, and the makeup was light, which was also the category of beauty.
She was holding a bottle of red wine in one hand and a corkscrew of red wine in the other.
She turned around and met my gaze, so we looked at each other and smiled, as a man, I spoke first: "You are Zhou Lei, Miss Zhou, I am Yi Feng, oh, that's what you usually call a madman." ”
As soon as I said this, Zhou Lei smiled at me, then put the red wine and slighter on the table behind her, and slowly walked over to me: "Hello, I am Zhou Lei, you can call me Lei Lei, this hotel, my father has already handed it over to me." ”
As she spoke, she held out her hand to shake my hand.
Holding it with her hand, there was a boneless softness, but it was a little colder, and the hand was so cold on this hot day.
But it soon became clear to me that the bottle of red wine must have been in the ice, and he was holding the frozen bottle in his hand.
After shaking hands, Zhou Lei beckoned us to sit down at the wine table, and then the others left the box.
Zhou Lei sat next to me, and the thug and the tanuki did not sit, but stood behind me.
After we sat down, Zhou Lei looked at me for a while, then shook her head and smiled bitterly and said, "Sure enough, I still can't call you 'crazy master' in front of you, you are too young, you are younger than me." ”
I smiled and said, "You call me Yi Feng, just call me by my name." ”
Zhou Lei nodded and continued: "Yi Feng, what happened in our hotel today, I already know it, it was our negligence that almost hurt you, I apologize to you on behalf of our Triumph Palace, I will toast you first." ”
Saying that, Zhou Lei was about to serve the wine, but when she went to look at the wine glass, she found that the bottle of red wine had not been opened, she put down the wine glass and looked at me with a smile and said, "Can you help me open this bottle of wine, I have a little strength and can't open it......"
I smiled and picked up the corkscrew to open the wine on the table, then poured it for her, then my own.
After I had poured the wine, she officially toasted me with my first glass.
Then she said a lot of polite and apologetic things to me, and I responded with a smile, and told her that I didn't take it to heart and told her not to pay too much attention to it.
After we drank two more glasses of wine, Zhou Lei asked me: "Yi Feng, I heard Aunt Cheng say, oh, the chairman of Xinlei Group, Cheng Liying, Aunt Cheng, you should know." ”
I nodded and said, "Yes."
Then Zhou Lei continued: "I heard Aunt Cheng say that you are going to set up a foundation for the education of disabled teenagers, right? ”
I nodded and said, "Yes, it's just the initial stage, and we haven't done a lot of formalities yet." ”
Zhou Lei smiled and said: "As long as there is such a thing, in order to express our apologies and our support for your foundation, I promise you on behalf of the Triumph Palace that when your foundation is established, we are willing to donate 500,000 yuan to your foundation."
Although the amount of 500,000 yuan alone is not too large, she is not participating in our foundation, but donating, that is to say, it is free, and she will not participate in the management of our foundation.
So I couldn't help but look at Zhou Lei a few more times, and then smiled: "Then thank you." ”
I also know in my heart that these 500,000 yuan are estimated to be the money that the Triumph Palace took out to make amends to me, but in fact, I didn't intend to blame them in my heart.
The two of us were eating, drinking, and chatting, and before we knew it, more than an hour had passed, and then Zhou Lei and I were talking about some boring gossip, which belonged to the kind that we forgot after speaking.
When both of us felt that there was nothing to say, I got up and said, "It's time for me to go, Miss Zhou Lei, today, thank you for your hospitality." ”
Zhou Lei waved her hand and said: "Yi Feng, you are joking, these are just trivial meanings, besides, don't call me Zhou Lei or Miss Zhou Lei in the future, we are friends, right, yes, you will call me Lei Lei like my friends." ”
I answered, said a few kind words, and Zhou Lei asked Manager Wu, who had been waiting at the door, to send us away.
After getting out of the Triumph Palace and getting into the car, the tanuki smiled and said: "Crazy brother, the status of our Hongxiang Society is getting higher and higher, and the bigwigs in the business world are also beginning to woo us one by one." ”
As soon as the tanuki said this, I was also very proud in my heart, so I laughed "hehe", who would have thought that our Hongxiang Society had spent more than a year to grow from a small gang on a street site to a big gang that accounted for most of Xingzhou, and we also have dozens of businesses led by Fengyu Group, adding up to more than tens of millions of assets.
When we returned to Shengchang Street, my parents and Lu Xiaoyu were watching TV in the living room, while Wang Bin, Violent Mouse and the other two brothers were playing cards on the table next to us.
When they saw me come back and greeted me, they stopped playing, saying that they were going upstairs to rest.
The thug and the tanuki also followed upstairs, and when only our family was left in the living room, my mother asked me: "Xiaofeng, I heard Wang Bin say, what happened to you today?" ”
I was stunned for a moment and said, "Why did Wang Bin say anything, really, nothing happened, it has been solved." ”
My mother shook her head and said, "Xiaofeng, it wasn't Wang Bin who took the initiative to tell us, we overheard it when one of his subordinates was discussing, and then we forced Wang Bin to tell us. ”
I smiled awkwardly and said, "Mom, those are all small things, it's really nothing, by the way, Mom, what happened to the person you found for me, I can rely on him for the operation of the Foundation." ”
Saying that, I diverted the topic, and my mother shook her head helplessly and said: "Xiaofeng, you mature earlier than children of the same age, and you have begun to face many things independently, and your father and I won't say anything about you, but you must remember to be more careful in everything, otherwise you will ......"
Speaking of this, my mother didn't continue, but sighed angrily and said: "Xiaofeng, the person you asked me to find, I have already contacted you, but he is now working in a multinational company in Canada, and it will take a month or two to resign or something, hey, I don't know if I hurt others." ”
Canada, a multinational group?
And I listened to my mother, that person seemed to have promised my mother to come back, I have to say, my mother is really big.
"Mom, you mean, that guy agreed to come back and help me with the Foundation?" I'm a little excited.
My mom smiled and said, "If you don't agree, why should people resign?" The person I invited back this time, although his comprehensive ability is not as good as Jingwan, but he is very far-sighted in investment and asset management, and he is also a rare talent, but this person's temper is a little straighter, and he is likely to often collide with you because of disagreements, so you can be mentally prepared. ”
I smiled and said, "How can a talent not have a little temper, take Sister Jingwan as an example, don't you see that she always targets me and laughs at me, I put up with it, don't worry." ”
My mother laughed and said: "You put up with Jingwan because Jingwan is a beauty, if you change to a man and laugh at you like this all day long, will you still feel nothing, don't you feel annoying?" ”
Well, it doesn't seem to be!
Later, my mother told me about that person, it was a man in his thirties, with the surname Shangguan, and a single name "Yao".
That night we talked a little more and went to bed.
Time flies, two days have passed in a blink of an eye, the college entrance examination has ended, and the school will start tomorrow.
In the past two days, Xingzhou has not been very peaceful, in fact, it is mainly because our Hongxiang Society and Tong Jiuchao are looking for a person named Liu Jiawei with great fanfare, of course, most people know the reason why we are looking for him, and only a few big guys know that Liu Jiawei attacked me with a gun.
It's just that after two days, I still haven't found the slightest news about Liu Jiawei.
As for the source of the gun, Gu Qingfeng had already asked to stay, and he said that the gun was definitely not in his hand, because the model of the gun was an old-fashioned Browning, which was an imported thing, and the Qingbang and Liu Blind never engaged in these.
Gu Qingfeng asked the strong dog, and the result was similar to what Liu Blind said, except that he told Gu Qingfeng that Hongmen also had a hall abroad, and they often engaged in some imported weapons to sell in China, so the source was difficult to check.
It seems that I don't think it will work to find some ideas about Liu Jiawei's whereabouts on weapons.
There is only one day left before the time I set, will we find Liu Jiawei and put an end to this turbulent situation?
