Chapter 42 A Feast of Food All kinds of people appear

The thin white porcelain soup cup contains a thick pale yellow soup, and Li Guanghan can see the shark fin, sea cucumber, abalone, fish maw, and ham in it at a glance. He suddenly understood why high-end banquets should be served with a soup like Buddha jumping over the wall, and the aroma emitted by these top ingredients with time boiling is incomparable to any single ingredient. It can quickly whet the appetite of diners, give diners a rich taste experience, and maximize the sincerity of the host.

After a cup of hot soup, Li Guanghan's whole body began to warm up, and the atmosphere at the table was also lively. Lao Xu began to talk eloquently and eloquently introduce the dishes of this private restaurant, as if he were a regular customer here. Lee Kuang-han joked that he was a foodie, and he had only been back to China for two months before he dug up the food that was so hidden.

Talking and laughing, more than half an hour has passed, Lao Xu looked at his watch, and muttered two sentences in his mouth, why hasn't it arrived yet? He asked the waiter to open a bottle of French Lafite and pour it for every guest in the room. Li Guanghan usually does not like to drink, and the last time he drank red wine was at the Chinese New Year's Eve party at the Chinese embassy in country F more than a month ago, after which he was drugged and injected with hallucinogens and dragged to a house in a mountain town. Thinking of this, he hurriedly said that there was an important meeting tomorrow and that he couldn't drink tonight, Lao Xu was unhappy and blamed Li Guanghan for ruining the fun. Liu Weijiang and the chairman of the listed company also persuaded him to drink, and Li Guanghan knew that it was impossible to drink to his heart's content when he saw a stranger present, let alone let go completely, and he had to keep toasting, so he thought about it and made up his mind not to drink a drop of alcohol. He asked the waiter for a glass of juice and apologized to everyone. Lao Xu's face was full of disappointment, and he complained stupidly that Li Guanghan didn't give face.

"I've kept you waiting, I'm sorry, I'm stuck in traffic, I'm late." A soft whisper floated into the door, and Wang Xiaoman stood at the door gracefully. Lao Xu hurriedly got up to meet him, and said with a smile: "The road is very congested, it's hard work, I'll give you the soup again." Lao Xu then turned around and introduced Wang Xiaoman to everyone. Li Guanghan noticed that Lao Xu was called reporter Wang Da at the beginning of the introduction, and the rest were affectionately called Xiaoman.

Wang Xiaoman's eyes swept over several guests at the table, and when she found Li Guanghan, she hurriedly stepped forward to shake hands with him in surprise. "Ahh Scientist Li: We have been very close to each other recently, and we often meet each other, so we can meet everywhere. ”

"Hello, reporter Wang Da, this is thanks to Lao Xu's blessing, he has always kept it secret from us, and we didn't expect him to be able to invite you." Li Guanghan also stood up politely and said, he felt a little that Lao Xu was not exactly here to see him tonight.

Liu Weijiang also came over to introduce himself: "I am Liu Weijiang from Aorui Biopharmaceutical, and Brother Xu took care of me today so that I could see the demeanor of Wang Da Beauty, I am really lucky." Your arrival is all about it! Wang Xiaoman looked at Liu Weijiang and said: "This must be the little fellow and alumnus that Lao Xu met in the United States." I heard Lao Xu praise you, why don't you continue to do research with a doctor of biology from your famous school, and strive to win a Nobel Prize or something. Liu Weijiang smiled and said: "Oh, life is compelling, I have no intention of learning, and I followed Brother Xu's footsteps to return to China for development." ”

The chairman of the listed company also said hello to Wang Xiaoman across the dining table. Everyone was together, and the dinner officially began. Lao Xu diligently poured wine for Wang Xiaoman, and uncovered the soup lid of the Buddha jumping over the wall for her, and said thoughtfully: "It's hot again just now, drink it while it's hot, and drink the soup after drinking." "There is no need to explain anything, the guests present should be able to see that the relationship between Lao Xu and Wang Xiaoman is not ordinary.

After serving Wang Xiaoman to drink soup, Lao Xu raised his red wine glass with a spring breeze on his face, for the reunion with Li Guanghan, in order to share the food with friends and spend a happy time, cheers! Li Guanghan embarrassedly took the juice and touched it with everyone, and was counted down by Lao Xu again. Li Guanghan smiled honestly and said: "You all let go of drinking, anyway, you have to leave one person who is sober, I am sober and I will take care of you." ”

During the scrutiny, Li Guanghan learned that the chairman of the western listed company was an important customer of Lao Xu, and that his company was mainly engaged in mineral development in the northwest and the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and had the right to use some undeveloped land. The chairman's surname is Hu, who is over 50 years old, and this time he was invited by Lao Xu to visit important people from all walks of life in Beijing. Li Guanghan thought to himself, although this old Xu has not been in China for many years, how can he be like he has been immersed in the official business circles of the capital for many years.

All kinds of exquisite dishes are served one after another, from the plating to the color matching, everything is just right, and the feeling of heavy makeup and light makeup is always appropriate, and it looks very beautiful and reluctant to eat, reminiscent of the person who made this dish is not a chef but an artist. After tasting them one by one, Li Guanghan found that Lao Xu was already very excited, his face was flushed, and his eyes often stopped on Wang Xiaoman's face. Li Guanghan thought to himself, this old Xu didn't let me have a treat, he had to arrange it, it turned out that he had other plans, a guy who valued sex and neglected friends.

At the dinner, Wang Xiaoman mentioned how she met Li Guanghan and recommended Li Guanghan's traditional Chinese medicine acupoint technique to everyone. Lao Xu also echoed and said that when he saw Li Guanghan on the TV show, he thought he had seen it wrong. He asked curiously, "Guanghan, when did you learn Chinese medicine on your own, and you weren't interested in it when you were in school?" It's not a day's work, you've put a lot of effort into it, admire! ”

"Where, where, I learned the fur, not as godly as you say." Lee Kwang Han was still humble, and he couldn't have told so many people about his bizarre experience. Liu Weijiang put down his chopsticks and listened very carefully.

The dinner party gradually came to an end, and everyone's faces became redder and redder under the reflection of the red gauze lanterns. The last dessert comes the Sach cake, which consists of two layers of chocolate cake with different soft and hard textures, sandwiched with fragrant apricot jam and finally coated with a layer of chocolate sauce. After eating this cake, Lee Kwang Han was completely full. He felt that although he was called by Lao Xu tonight as an excuse and shield, it was still worth it, after all, it was the most luxurious meal he had ever eaten, and he didn't have to drink.

Before I knew it, it was ten o'clock at night, and everyone was almost drunk. Lao Xu hurriedly arranged for the driver to take the guests home. He planned to ask the driver to send Li Guanghan and the three of them back first, and he and Wang Xiaoman waited for the driver to come back to pick them up. Unexpectedly, Wang Xiaoman said that he came by car and would get up early tomorrow, so he planned to call a substitute driver. Lao Xu was anxious when he heard it, it was too unsafe to be called a substitute driver so late and remote. Wang Xiaoman said, or let Scientist Li drive my car, he didn't drink, you can be sent by the driver one by one, just run a trip. This idea was reasonable, and Lao Xu could only agree to it stupidly.

Li Guanghan came to Wang Xiaoman's car, a Toyota sedan, and he found that it was not the royal blue Maserati sports car he saw last time.
