Chapter Seventy-Seven: A Sumptuous Meal
At this time, Chen Yuanqiao came out of the box, and also heard She Chuming's words, and knew that he had deliberately arranged it this way - because Xia Haoyu of Huayu Heavy Industry was going to come over, and She Chuming was trying to ask him to match him to see if he could climb a new member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee as a backer. And Xia Haoyu hated Ye Ming to the core, so She Chuming deliberately arranged for Ye Ming to sit at a table with those drivers and staff to curry favor with Xia Haoyu.
Chen Yuanqiao saw that his daughter was so angry that he was in tears, and his heart ached, but he dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak - almost every penny he earned in the provincial capital was earned with the help of She Chuming. It is precisely because of this that She Chuming dared to offend Ye Ming, the future nephew and son-in-law, without scruples......
At this moment, Xia Haoyu walked over with a smile and a smile surrounded by several government officials, and when he saw Ye Ming, who was holding hands with Chen Mengqi, his face immediately turned pale.
However, after all, he has been the general manager of an international group for several years, and he has experienced a little bit of city government. After a moment of jealousy, his face immediately returned to calm, and a smile appeared on his face, and he said to Chen Mengqi: "Qiqi, what are you doing standing outside?" Come on, come on, let's go in together. β
Chen Mengqi was angry with She Chuming, and there was no place to vent, when she saw Xia Haoyu coming to talk to her, she put her pretty face on her face and said, "Where am I standing, what does it matter to you?" We are not qualified to sit in your VIP box, you have to go by yourself, I want to accompany my boyfriend, there is no obligation to accompany you! β
As she spoke, she took Ye Ming's hand and walked towards the 828 box she had booked, and said, "Brother Ye, we eat ours, just to be quiet." β
Chen Yuanqiao shouted anxiously from behind: "Qiqi, who are you angry with?" Where to go? β
Chen Mengqi turned around and said, "Brother Ye has other guests, I have booked another box." β
Xia Haoyu was robbed of a few words by Chen Mengqi, and seeing that she and Ye Ming were so affectionate, she was crazy with jealousy, and she gritted her teeth with hatred for Ye Ming.
She Chuming saw that his face was blue and white for a while, and he stood there in a daze, looking at the backs of Ye Ming and Chen Mengqi, his teeth were gritted loudly, for fear that he would get angry and leave, so he hurriedly grabbed his hand and comforted: "Mr. Xia, don't be like Qiqi." She has been pampered since she was a child, has never suffered hardships, and does not know how to recognize the ugly. After a year or two, she tasted the bitterness, and she would naturally turn back. β
Speaking of this, he smiled and deliberately explained: "Actually, I am also to blame for this." Like you, I don't like the little clerk from Xinleng County, so I deliberately arranged for him to sit at the same table with those drivers and handymen. Kiki probably thinks I underestimate him, which is why I am so angry. You also know: Kiki's temper is actually very good, if it weren't for this, she would still understand basic etiquette. Mr. Xia, you don't care about the villain, don't think about it. Come on, come on, let's go in and drink. β
With that, he dragged Xia Haoyu into the 888 box, arranged for him to sit down in the innermost position, and personally accompanied him. Around him are government officials such as the director of the land bureau, the director of the planning bureau, and the director of the urban construction bureau of the provincial capital.
Chen Mengqi angrily took Ye Ming and Xu Fei to the 828 box, sat down inside, and instructed the waiter to order the most expensive and best dishes in the store, and also to serve a bottle of the best French red wine.
Xu Fei was startled, and hurriedly stopped and said, "Qiqi, Secretary Li is very simple and doesn't like luxury things. All you need is a few home-cooked dishes, and you don't need alcohol! β
Chen Mengqi was unhappy and was about to take her father's money to be angry, where could she listen to Xu Fei's words? Moreover, she knew that it was Ye Ming's godfather who was going to come next, and she felt that she was not polite and luxurious, and she couldn't get over her face.
Therefore, while instructing the waiter to prepare according to her requirements, she said to Xu Fei: "Director Xu, this is my private treat, and it is not a public expense to eat and drink." No matter how honest Secretary Li is, no matter how much he hates luxury, he can't stop me from eating what I have at home! β
Xu Fei saw that she was strong and reasonable, and it was not easy to say anything, so he had to look at Ye Ming and smile bitterly.
Ye Ming had just called to tell Secretary Li where he was eating and the box. Secretary Li usually has little entertainment outside, and he didn't know that Jinqiao Hotel was a five-star luxury hotel, and thought it was an ordinary place to eat.
When he and his secretary walked into the hotel lobby, they found that the hotel was originally a five-star hotel, and they couldn't help frowning, thinking that this Xu Fei was really playing the piano, three or four people had a meal, and they had to go to such a luxurious and high-end place.
When he walked to the 828 box, Xu Fei had already greeted Ye Ming and Chen Mengqi.
After sitting down in the box, Secretary Li looked at Chen Mengqi a little strangely and asked Ye Ming: "Who is this little comradeββ"
Chen Mengqi replied with a smile: "Uncle Li, my name is Chen Mengqi, and I am Ye Ming's girlfriend. β
"Oh?"
Secretary Li raised his eyebrows in surprise, looked at Ye Ming with a puzzled gaze, and asked, "Xiao Ye, why have I never heard you mention this girl?" When did you talk about it? β
Ye Ming smiled awkwardly and said, "Uncle Li, I participated in the romantic hand-holding program of the provincial TV station the night before yesterday, and I successfully held hands with Qiqi on stage. However, the two of us who have known each other seven or eight years ago are high school alumni. β
Secretary Li looked Chen Mengqi up and down a few times again, and saw that she was slender and tall, handsome, and a good match for Ye Ming, so he nodded and said, "Not bad, not bad!" β
Chen Mengqi saw that Secretary Li said two good things in a row, and smiled happily, and glanced at Ye Ming very charmingly, and her heart was as sweet as honey.
Soon, the waiter began to serve the dishes one after another, and announced the names of the dishes loudly: the first is "abalone juice buckle camel paw", the second is "steamed lobster", the third is "gold medal pigeon king", and the fourth is "a plum ginseng......
Although Secretary Li didn't have much entertainment, just from the names of these dishes, he knew that each of these dishes was expensive, so he couldn't help frowning, and said a little angrily: "Xiao Xu, what kind of reputation are you doing?" How much does your table cost? Besides, it's just a few of us here, can you order so many dishes, can you finish eating? β
Chen Mengqi didn't wait for Xu Fei to argue, and explained with a smile: "Uncle Li, today I invited you and Director Xu to dinner. This hotel is owned by my family. In a sense, today is my invitation to my house for a meal. I heard Brother Ye say that you have always treated him as a son. I'm now his girlfriend, your future daughter-in-law. The first time your daughter-in-law invites you to dinner, of course, you have to be polite. So, don't be surprised. β
Before Secretary Li could speak, a waiter at the door suddenly pushed the door in and said to Chen Mengqi: "Miss, Chairman Chen, please go to Box 888 and Mr. Ye immediately to pay tribute to Mayor She's wine." β
