Chapter 232: A faint warmth
After his solemn assurance, Zhang Min left, watching her figure exuding youthful vitality disappear around the corner, Shi Zhong shook his head with a wry smile and walked towards the gate.
As soon as I got in the car, the mobile phone rang, and when I looked at the number, it turned out to be a strange call, and answered: "Hey, hello!" ”
"Hey, it's Brother Shi, right? I'm lacking! A warm voice came from there.
"Hehe, Brother Peacock, you're rare!" Shi Zhong smiled on his face, but he was thinking in his heart, why did this guy call him?
Kong Que didn't go around the bend, and said directly: "That's the case, didn't Xiaohua bump into you last night?" I've always felt embarrassed in my heart, I invited you to a meal at noon today, first, to apologize to you, and second, to make friends! ”
"Okay!" Shi Zhong did not hesitate at all, although this Kong Que used to play with Lian Feng, it does not mean that he can't be friends with him, besides, Lian Feng has already entered, and it is all in the past.
Kong Que smiled and reported a name, it was the name of the hotel, a very high-end place, Shi Zhong had heard of it.
Shi Zhong said to Semafa and went to the Jin Jiang Hotel.
At the other end, seeing Kong Que hanging up the phone, Sun Hua was the arrogant young man who smashed Li Fatzi with a wine bottle yesterday, and said carefully: "Brother Kong, he, are you coming?" ”
Kong Que looked at Sun Hua with a cautious look and wanted to laugh, but think about it, just now he didn't think of himself as this kind of thought, the old man didn't treat himself as a child, yesterday he told himself the truth about Secretary Lian's internal retreat, and heard Kong Que gasp, a dignified deputy ministerial-level official, said that he would take it, although it was also to blame Lian Feng for being unlucky, but which [provincial] governor or provincial [committee] secretary should this matter be placed in, Kong Que would not be surprised at all, the key is that Shi Zhong is just a young man younger than himself, and secondly, he is not in the officialdom. It's weird.
"He'll be there soon, let's go out and wait!" Kong Que said, walked out of the door, Sun Hua followed closely behind, and was relieved to hear Shi Zhong promise to come.
When Shi Zhong got out of the car, Kong Que had already stepped forward and walked over and shook hands with Shi Zhong, Shi Zhong smiled: "Brother Peacock, it's really embarrassing to let you wait here!" But there was not the slightest embarrassment on this guy's face.
"Where, where!" Kong Que said with a smile.
Sun Hua walked up, without his usual arrogance, and shouted weakly: "Brother Shi! Shi Zhong smiled and nodded.
"Let's go, let's go up!" Kong Que pulled the stone bell forward, Sun Hua followed behind, and behind him, it was the fierce man Biaozi who had been inseparable from Cheng Zibing, when Biaozi saw Semafa, his eyes revealed a deep vigilance, and his intuition told him that this Arab was very dangerous, and Saima's law didn't look at Biaozi, and followed him.
The box is a hall layout, elegant and floral, simple and elegant, just like being in the luxurious dining room of the ancient emperor's house. The service lady has a red short placket, rows of beautiful flag buckles, each beautiful and generous, pleasing to the eye, and even makes people feel like being served by a maid.
This Jin Jiang Hotel is most famous for Tan's cuisine, which is well-known in Hangzhou City and its vicinity.
The most outstanding dishes of the Tan family are bird's nest and shark fin, Kong Que said: "Brother Shi, I ordered a few dishes, you can take a look!" ”
Shi Zhong took it and looked at it casually, and ordered the yellow braised shark fin and clear soup swallow vegetables, anyway, he didn't have to spend his own money, but Shi Zhong didn't know that these two dishes were made slowly, especially the clear soup and swallow vegetables, the hanging soup had to be boiled for a few days, and most of the signature dishes of the Tan family had to be booked.
The waitress explained in embarrassment, and Shi Zhong heard it for the first time, and said, "Then let's change the dishes!" ”
Kong Que made a face and frowned: "You have food here, tell your Manager Tan, give it to us!" ”
As soon as the waiter heard that someone knew about preparing food, he naturally respectfully agreed and retreated.
After a while, the dishes with good holes came up one after another.
Kong Que said to Shi Zhong: "Brother Shi, is that friend of yours okay?" ”
Where did Shi Zhong know if there was anything wrong with that fat man, but with his physique, then something should be fine, and said casually: "It's okay, it's a trivial matter!" ”
At the mention of this, Sun Hua's face was a little sneering, he picked up the wine bottle and filled it for himself, holding the wine glass in both hands and said carefully: "Brother Shi, I will stop when you say it!" ”
After speaking, he immediately raised his head for a glass, frowned and poured another glass, and drank it, this time there was a reaction in the stomach, Sun Huaqiang endured and poured the wine again, but Shi Zhong stopped it, and said with a smile: "It's all a misunderstanding, don't make it look like anything, come, I'll drink this cup with you!" ”
Sun Hua breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that his sincerity had been seen by Shi Zhong, the knot was finally untied, and he had a drink with Shi Zhong, but this time, he felt that it was not as difficult to drink as the first two cups, and flattered: "Thank you Brother Shi for a lot!" "It's not easy for a dignified and high-ranking son to do this.
"Okay, okay, I haven't eaten or drunk any wine, come, Brother Shi, try the Tan family's cuisine!" Kong Que greeted.
At the wine table, the atmosphere is strong.
When the wine was drunk, the bead curtain was lifted, and a short and fat middle-aged man walked in, it was Tan Jiang, the manager of the current Jin Jiang Hotel, and when he saw Kong Que and Sun Hua, he immediately grinned: "Kong Gongzi, Sun Gongzi, welcome, welcome!" But when he saw Shi Zhong, he shook hands with Kong Que and Sun Hua enthusiastically: "You don't know me when you come, you are slacking off!" ”
"Hehe, today we are not the protagonists, this is!" Kong Que said with a smile, Tan Jiang was surprised, and his intuition told him that this was not Kong Que's joke, in Zhejiang Province, there are not many young people who can make Kong Que treat him like this.
"Who is this?" Tan Jiang looked at Shi Zhong, the smile on his face kept hanging, it was really difficult for him.
"Brother Shi, this is Manager Tan!" Kong Que said, he didn't introduce Shi Zhong, but Tan Jiang didn't care, and hurriedly stepped forward enthusiastically: "Mr. Shi is driving, the small shop is shining!" ”
Shi Zhong exchanged a few words with him, Tan Xiaotian was not annoying, greeted him affectionately, knew when to retreat, and after a while, he smiled and said, "You sit, eat and drink well, I'll go to a few Zhang Luo." ”
When Tan Jiang retreated, Kong Que smiled and said: "This old Tan, just like that, is too enthusiastic!" ”
This meal is naturally a pleasure for both guests and hosts.
When leaving, Sun Hua approached Shi Zhong, handed over a few tickets, and said, "Brother Shi, this is the ticket for the VIP area in the front row of Ling Ruotong's literary and artistic performance, I will keep ten for you!" ”
Shi Zhong looked at the colorful tickets, and politely refused: "I haven't heard of Ling Ruotong, I'm not interested in this aspect, forget it, leave it to others, I don't want it!" ”
Sun Hua insisted: "Brother Shi, if you don't like it, give it to others, you see?" ”
Seeing that Sun Hua was so sincere, Shi Zhong said: "Okay! "After all, people are kind-hearted, if they go to the queue to buy, it is estimated that they can only buy the last circle, Sun Hua's Laozi is the director of the Department of Culture, and the tickets given are naturally not bad, Shi Zhong glanced at it, and sure enough, they were all in the first three rows.
Sun Hua saw that Shi Zhong took it, smiled, and said, "Then Brother Shi, I'll leave!" "On the car of Kong Que, where is there still the arrogance of the second generation of the former [official], this has to let the former younger brother see that he has lost his big teeth.
In the afternoon, I went to the security company and asked Cheng Zibing to teach him martial arts skills, and he originally asked Semafa, but he gave Shi Zhong a depressed answer: I don't know how to train people, and I think the boss is already very strong!
In the next three days, Shi Zhong's life has been like this, the morning school, the afternoon training ground, because they are all special forces, even if they are in the security company, these people also maintain the work and rest time in the army, in the words of Cheng Zibing, this is also training, but it makes Shi Zhong experience the difficulty of being a soldier.
Three days later, Shi Zhong received a phone call from Yi Chen: "Michael's matter has been resolved!" ”
"Solved?" Shi Zhong was excited for a long time, damn, he finally didn't have to live a simple life, and asked, "You killed him?" ”
"Nope!" Yi Chen said.
"None? So what do you mean by solved? Shi Zhongdao.
"I was going to kill Michael, but it was not easy for him to practice, so he was seriously injured and driven out of China!" Yi Chen said lightly.
"You let him go?" Shi Zhong's voice was raised, and he said a little angrily, "Do you know, then you are letting the tiger return to the mountain, what will he do if he comes in the future?" ”
"Then kill him!" Yi Chen said, Shi Zhong was stunned, what kind of person is this, his thoughts are so strange, and he sighed: "Forget it, I've already run away anyway!" ”
hung up the phone, Shi Zhong's first call was to Ningning, he had only been in contact with Ningning on the phone for the past three or four days, and he didn't tell her about Michael, she was just an ordinary girl, Shi Zhong was afraid that she would be worried.
"Hey!"
Tranquility's voice is still so gentle and beautiful, like a hot spring flowing through Shi Zhong's heart, his heart is full of warmth, it is now more than four o'clock in the afternoon, Shi Zhong said: "Tranquility, come out to eat at night, right?" ”
"Good!" A quiet answer quickly came from there, Shi Zhong was stunned for a moment, he heard it clearly, and there was a little joy in his quiet tone, but he was deeply suppressed.
"I'll pick you up after work!" Stone Bell Road.
Qingnian Road is a pedestrian street, and the entire long street is full of clothes, shoes, and toys, and occasionally dotted with a few food stores in the middle. Countless young men and women holding hands and dressed fashionably come out of one shop and enter another, leaving a line of footprints, but also leaving beautiful or sad memories in the future.
The more roads a person has traveled when he is young, the happier he will be when he is old, because the content that can be recalled for him will be richer than others, which has nothing to do with the happy or sad events experienced when he was young.
Shi Zhong and Tranquility came here, walking silently, shoulder to shoulder, behind them, Sakura and Semafa also hung behind them, like two little tails.
The two of them walked, Shi Zhong's hand suddenly climbed up to Tranquility's slender hand, soft and soft, and the symbol of tranquility struggled slightly, and then let Shi Zhong hold it tightly, but the roots of his ears were a little red.
