Chapter 10: Dinner

"Why do you have to pull me for your old classmate to dinner? I went there and didn't even have anyone to talk to, so I sat there like a fool, how boring. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info I'm not going! Li Mingcheng said to his father who was wearing shoes at the door while pressing the remote control.

Li Mingcheng originally wanted to take advantage of this afternoon to take a good rest and relax and relax his tense body, but as soon as he came back from school, he was greeted by his father Li Dexian, who was idle at home on the weekend, to accompany him and one of his old classmates to eat together, and Li Mingcheng, who was physically and mentally exhausted, was naturally reluctant in his heart.

"Less nonsense, do you go or don't go?" Li Dexian raised his eyebrows and glared at his son, who was "Ge You's paralysis" on the sofa.

"Don't go!"

"Okay, your pocket money is halved this month." Li Dexian said lightly.

"Go, I'll go, I'll not be able to go!" Li Mingcheng jumped up from the sofa suddenly, gritted his teeth and said, "Wait, I'll go change my clothes, I'll be here soon!" ”

Now he especially regrets listening to his mother's words and obediently handing over the check worth $400,000, otherwise how could he be subdued by such a small means as "economic sanctions" now? It's sad enough to think about it, I am a reborn person who will be stumped by such a mundane thing as money in the end, which is really a shame for the group of reborn!

No, it looks like I'm going to have to find a way to make some extra money.

"Be smart!" Li Dexian's urging voice came from outside the door.

"Got it!" Li Mingcheng replied angrily.

Changing into a set of clean casual clothes, feeling a little refreshed, Li Mingcheng took two steps back and looked up and down at the mirror on the wardrobe, pouted and blew the bangs hanging down from his forehead, and frowned slightly.

Looks like we're going to have to find some time to get a haircut.

"Okay, huh? How long will it take you to change your clothes! Outside the door, Dad urged again.

"It's coming, it's coming!" Li Mingcheng shouted, took one last look at the handsome boy in the mirror, whistled and walked out of the room.

"What are you urging, I can't pick one to make a good impression!" Li Mingcheng said as he walked to the door.

"You have a lot of excuses!" Li Dexian glanced at him, "Quick, put on your shoes and go, people are still waiting there!" ”

"Got it, got it!"

…………

Jincheng Hotel, the oldest operating hotel in Yuanzhou City, is also the earliest star-rated hotel in Yuanzhou City, where you can enjoy almost the highest standard catering service in Yuanzhou at present, so this is also the favorite place for local magnates in Yuanzhou to have dinner and banquets on weekdays.

The owner of Jincheng Hotel is rumored to be a well-known Shu businessman, so the hotel's chef cooks authentic Sichuan cuisine, and it is estimated that the name of the hotel is also taken from Tianfu City, the capital of Xichuan Province.

At present, the economy of Yuanzhou City is still very backward, even in front of the city's top hotels, the private cars parked are only Honda, Ford, Buick, etc., luxury cars like Mercedes-Benz and BMW are not common, let alone Porsche, Maybach, Maserati, 99% of Yuanzhou people have never heard of luxury things.

Li Mingcheng walked into the atmospheric door of Jincheng Hotel with his father, the warm smile on the face of the waiter at the door made people feel like a spring breeze, accompanied by the sweet "welcome" of the welcome ladies on both sides, Li Mingcheng secretly sighed that the service industry practitioners in this era are still quite professional, and it really makes people feel a little at home.

"Hey, it seems that your old classmate is doing well, the pomp is big enough!" Li Mingcheng looked around at the hotel lobby, which could be called luxurious and gorgeous in the context of the current era, and whispered to his father beside him.

"You talk a lot!" Li Dexian glared at him, "I'll tell you, pay attention later, don't talk nonsense, be polite, don't be big or small like at home, leave a good impression!" ”

"Oh, I know, why are you becoming more and more like your mother now? Mother-in-law's. Li Mingcheng said impatiently.

"What did you say?" Li Dexian raised his eyebrows.

"It's nothing, it's nothing, let's go over quickly, don't make people wait." Li Mingcheng quickly changed the subject.

"Hmph, stinky boy, I'll settle accounts with you later!"

Led by the lobby attendant, the father and son walked through the hotel's palatial lobby to the second floor of the hotel, where they turned left and right in the exquisitely decorated corridor before finally stopping in front of a box with "Tingtao Pavilion" hanging on the door.

Father Li thanked the waiter, who smiled humbly, then bowed down and said "Please come in", and turned to leave.

Li Dexian straightened his collar, turned around and gave Li Mingcheng a warning look, and then pushed away the box and led in.

Li Mingcheng pursed his lips, fell half behind his father and followed into the box.

"Haha, Lao Li, you're finally here! Long time no see! The middle-aged man in the box heard the movement here and turned his head to look over, and after seeing the face of the person who came, he stood up and greeted him with a smile.

"Long time no see!" Li Dexian also greeted him with a smile, and the two middle-aged men came to an intimate hug, and it seemed that the relationship between the two was good.

Li Mingcheng secretly looked at his father's old classmate on the side, just from the appearance, he looked younger than his father, his face was ruddy, there were no traces of wrinkles on his face, and his black hair was also black and shiny.

"This is my son, Li Mingcheng." After greeting the old classmates, Father Li turned sideways and pulled his son to his side and introduced, "Xiaocheng, this is your Uncle Zhong." ”

"Hello Uncle Zhong!" Li Mingcheng showed a harmless smile and said softly.

"Hello, hello." Zhong Qin gently touched Li Mingcheng's head, "Ha, have your sons grown so big?" I remember when I just left Yuanzhou, you weren't even married, right? It's really inadvertent, so many years have passed in a blink of an eye! ”

"Who's to say it's not, we're all old in a blink of an eye!" Li Dexian sighed.

At this moment, Li Mingcheng vaguely felt a hint of "reminiscing about the past and the thick years" from the eyes of the two middle-aged men in front of him.

"Look at my brain, I forgot to ask you to sit down just to chat with you," Zhong Qin smiled at Li Mingcheng with a pleasant face, "Come, Li Mingcheng, right?" Sit casually, there's nothing to be polite with your uncle! ”

Zhong Qin warmly beckoned the father and son to sit down in turn, and then sat down in the seat next to Li Dexian.

Helping the two of them unpack the tableware and send it to the two, Zhong Qin picked up the chopsticks and said with a hearty smile: "The food in this shop still tastes very good, come, move the chopsticks, let's talk while eating!" ”
