Chapter Ninety-Nine: An Awkward Dinner

The scene was silent for a while, and Li Ling had to explain, saying: "My master's son is engaged to Miss Zhang Kexin in front of me, but the master's son died early, in order to fulfill the master's wish, I went to Zhang's house." ”

"In order to fulfill your master's wish, you went to propose?" Lin Yazhi's pretty face was frosty, and her delicate body trembled.

Li Ling hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Although I went, it's okay, Miss Zhang refused this family business." ”

Lin Yazhi's face was a little pale, but she still couldn't forgive Li Ling for going to someone else's house with her back to her.

Ye Wan suddenly smiled and said: "Li Ling, your peach blossom luck is not small, you are merciful everywhere, it is very good." She laughed as she spoke, and tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.

And Zhang Kexin said that she had a hard time, because she refused this family business at the beginning, but later she was willing to marry him, but she was rejected by Li Ling, and at this time she wanted to put herself out of the relationship.

No one spoke anymore, and the scene was embarrassing. Cheng Ying said at this time: "Brother Ling didn't prepare a meal, everyone is almost hungry, let's eat together!" ”

Knowing that Cheng Ying was easing the situation, Li Ling hurriedly ordered the cook to serve the food. Everyone came to the living room to eat, and was invited by Cheng Ying, and Zhang Kexin also came over.

Xi'er, who followed behind Ye Wan, said, "I'll go and see if the meal is ready." Then he went to the kitchen.

Everyone sat there and didn't know what to say. Cheng Ying provoked the conversation and asked, "Why didn't the girl behind Sister Ye Wan introduce me?" ”

Ye Wan was a little absent-minded, and said casually: "This is Xi'er, the concubine given to Li Ling by someone else." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's spearhead suddenly pointed at Li Ling again.

Lin Yazhi's face turned blue and said, "Really? Then Li Ling should be congratulated on marrying such a beautiful woman. ”

At this time, even Cheng Ying was ugly, and secretly blamed Li Lingchao, she wanted to resolve the embarrassment, but the more she resolved the matter, the more she simply stopped talking.

Zhang Kexin, who was still thinking nonsense, also felt contempt when she heard this, it turned out that Li Ling was so disgusting, and she was actually a golden house.

Li Ling hurriedly explained: "Although others sent it, I ...... it." ”

"Okay, you don't have to explain, I understand you." Lin Yazhi coldly interrupted him, stood up and said, "I'll go back to Jinan now, and I won't interfere with you." ”

Li Ling was speechless, stepped forward to hold her hand, and said pleadingly: "Yazhi, listen to me." ”

Trying to shake off Li Ling, Lin Yazhi covered her face and ran away crying.

Li Ling glared at Ye Wan and said, "You caused trouble." ”

"Huh?" Ye Wan was at a loss, then thought of what she had said and knew what the problem was. Although Xi'er was given to Li Ling by someone else, Li Ling never said that he wanted Xi'er to be a concubine. After she figured it out, she hurriedly got up and chased after Lin Yazhi.

After a while, Lin Yazhi was brought back by Ye Wan, thinking that Ye Wan had already explained the matter, Lin Yazhi's eyes were still red, but her face was not so angry.

The scene was embarrassing again, Cheng Ying turned her head and said, "Sister of the Zhang family, Brother Ling once came to your house to propose marriage, since you don't agree, why don't you explain it clearly?" ”

"I ......," Zhang Kexin wanted to explain, but she didn't know where to start.

Wang Laona, who was on the side, said: "I received a notice from my master and invited Brother Li Ling to Shanghai to discuss marriage together. Although the little junior sister disagreed, my master did what he said, so he had to wronged the little junior sister to marry Li Ling. ”

What had been a somewhat relaxed situation suddenly became tense again. If it weren't for the presence of so many people, Li Ling really wanted to get a few ear scrapers for Wang Lao. Things are getting more and more chaotic, and Li Ling really doesn't know how to end it.

Lin Yazhi is tall, elegant, and often smiles like a flower, which makes people feel refreshed. Ye Wan turned purple and shook red, charming and charming, sometimes rude, sometimes obedient, so that people couldn't bear to let go. Zhang Kexin is empty and beautiful, with bright eyes and bright teeth, dignified and beautiful, no one wants to marry home as a wife.

The three women are all sitting here, and if Li Ling directly says that he chooses Lin Yazhi, he will inevitably offend Ye Wan. Although there are some disputes with Zhang Kexin, most of them are caused by themselves, and it can be seen that Zhang Kexin has some feelings for herself. Li Ling was very embarrassed for a while, and looked at Cheng Ying as if asking for help.

Cheng Ying also looked helpless, glanced at Li Ling, and when she saw the food coming up, she prepared dishes and chopsticks for Tang Keer.

Li Ling seemed to have found a place to resolve the embarrassment, pulled Tang Ke'er to sit beside him, and teased her.

Everyone has their own thoughts, and the meal is tasteless. Near the end, Sun Yuzhu suddenly ran in, and a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl with beautiful eyebrows was pulled behind him.

"Brother Ling, look who I brought here." Sun Yuzhu opened his voice and shouted.

Everyone turned their heads to Li Ling again.

Li Ling smiled bitterly and said, "How do I know who it is?" ”

"Oh, I forgot to introduce, this is my new friend named Song Tingting, who goes to school in Qingdao Girls' Middle School, and she promised me to get married at the end of the year, hehe." Sun Yuzhu said with a little embarrassment.

No wonder Sun Yuzhu couldn't see anyone during this time, so he went to the women's middle school to pick up girls. Ye Wan once hit him that he couldn't get a wife, and at this time he was a little angry.

After Sun Yuzhu saw the few people present, he hurriedly greeted: "Sister-in-law... We're all here! You should eat and drink, I'm going to take Tingting out. He saw that something seemed wrong and was ready to slip away.

Lin Yazhi stood up, pulled Song Tingting over, and said, "You haven't eaten yet!" Come and sit here and eat together. Song Tingting looked shy, and let her pull her to sit down.

Sun Yuzhu stared at the big copper bell-like eyes for a while, looked at this for a while, and looked at that for a while, he felt that there was a puff of gunpowder smoke on the dinner table, and he really couldn't sit still, so he said, "Brother Ling, I'd better go, let's go back to my yard." ”

"Since you're here, don't go anywhere, just eat here." Li Ling said with a serious expression.

Sun Yuzhu secretly regretted it, usually the visitors are accompanied by He Jiatang Jinglian and others, but he didn't see a single figure today, so he broke in recklessly, and he couldn't leave if he wanted to, so he had to bury his head in eating.

The dinner that could have ended early, but because of the arrival of Sun Yuzhu and the others, the time was extended. Finally, when it was over, Li Ling felt relieved. was about to take a breath, but was called out by Cheng Ying.

"What the hell do you want?" Cheng Ying and Li Ling came to a secluded room, and Cheng Ying asked.

Li Ling looked distressed: "What can I do, I didn't have a relationship with Lin Yazhi at the beginning, so I went to Zhang's house to propose marriage on the order of my master." At that time, I was rejected, and I thought that the matter would end here, but I thought that the Zhang family would still be concerned. If I go out and refuse it now, it will definitely hurt people's hearts. ”

Cheng Ying said angrily: "Then you are not afraid of hurting Lin Yazhi's heart, do you want to be polygamous or what?" I can see that none of these girls are willing to be concubines. You have to make the words clear, and that Ye Wan also likes you when she sees it, and you must have a clear reply to this matter. ”

Li Ling thought for a long time before he said, "Okay, then I'll reject Zhang Kexin first." ”

Zhang Kexin was sitting in front of the window at this time, thinking about it, she felt incredible about her behavior today. She originally came to interview Li Ling and dig out the smuggling of tobacco and soil in Qingdao's underground society, but she was jealous with a few women, which is probably a woman's nature!

After calming down, Zhang Kexin brushed the green silk in front of her forehead, threw out distracting thoughts, and said, "Let's interview Li Ling and others later, and irrelevant things must be put aside, and don't spread them in the future." ”

The young man with eyes behind Zhang Kexin had already seen that things were not simple, not to mention the relationship between Zhang Kexin and Li Ling, even those cold-eyed men in Li Ling's Mansion made him unbearable, and persuaded in a low voice: "Forget about this matter, let's rush back to Shanghai tomorrow!" ”

"No, the editor-in-chief of this matter has been handed over to me with full authority to deal with, we can't go back until we achieve our goal, we must dig deep into the cancer of society and find out the giant dealers who sell tobacco and soil." Zhang Kexin said righteously, there has long been no shame in Fang Cai.

Li Ling happened to arrive at this time, and after hearing her words, he said coldly: "What is the identity of Miss Zhang who came to my mansion, if it is as Miss Zhang's family, as my master's world friend, I welcome it with both hands." If it's a newspaper reporter, I'm sorry, I won't stay. ”

"Whatever my identity, I'm here today to ask. Someone has reported you for selling tobacco, yes or no? ”

"So what? Isn't it? Are you a messenger sent by the Anti-Narcotics Commission? Specifically to clean up drugs? ”

"You are still a student of Qilu University in vain, don't you know the harm of tobacco to the people? Today, the quality of the Chinese people is low, their physical strength is weak, and a large amount of silver is flowing out. It's been a hundred years since the national drug was banned, haven't you reflected at all? ”

Li Ling frowned, he was a human being in two lives, how could he not know the harm of opium smoke, and he also wanted to lead the brothers to the right path, this is not a one-time thing, he can only persuade slowly, and Zhang Kexin stood on the national righteousness to question, which made Li Ling disgusted.

"What do you do if I don't sell tobacco or soil? Since you are so righteous and awe-inspiring, why don't you investigate the bad deeds of the 'three tycoons' in Shanghai. Why don't you investigate the import and export of opium in the Zhenru area of Tongzhou, it should be your father's sphere of influence! ”

Since Li Ling eats the bowl of tobacco, of course he has some understanding of the national tobacco market. The three tycoons in Shanghai started selling drugs as we all know, and Zhang Kexin's father, Zhang Jinghu, also used the power of his protΓ©gΓ© to open up the tobacco and soil passage in the Zhenru area. Not to mention these people, even the members of the state government are not a few who sell drugs.

"You mean my father was involved in drug trafficking?" Zhang Kexin was incredulous.
