Chapter 31: The Banquet 3
Friend?
People looked at Qi Darkin and then at Chen An, and felt that they couldn't turn around. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
They turned out to be friends?
"The night banquet roses are very good, when the Red River Battle broke out, which is related to the national fortunes of the empire, His Majesty in order to celebrate the victory of this key battle in the Southern Alliance and the Northern Alliance, specially ordered the Imperial Craftsman Bureau to make a batch of exquisite watches, to those hard-working soldiers, it just so happened that day is also Your Majesty's birthday, the soldiers were moved, so they held the watch and shouted for good health, since then, the night banquet roses have a new meaning." Qi Darkin looked at the night banquet rose in Li Ming's hand with a dark golden soft light, smiled slightly, he nodded at Li Ming, and said: "Happy birthday, Li Ming, after so many years, you have worked hard, and your contribution is in our eyes and hearts, today is your birthday, I wish you eternal health." ”
Uncle Li was obviously very nervous, and said, "Thank you for coming, Young Master Dark Forest, it's really unexpected." ”
"Of course, this is my brother in the dark forest." Beside her, the girl said, her eyes falling on Qi Darklin.
"Tiantian, that's enough." Qi Yanlin's voice sounded rather helpless.
After Qi Darkin's introduction, Chen An and the girl got to know each other, her name is Tang Tian, and it can be seen that she likes Qi Darkin very much.
"Young Master Dark Forest, why are you ......" Zeng Maohua reacted at this time, and his lips pursed for a long time before he squeezed out a few words.
Qi Darkin looked at Zeng Maohua in surprise and said, "Zeng Li, you are also here, I really didn't expect it." ”
I really didn't expect it, what didn't I think of?
Zeng Maohua's heart trembled, and he thought about it for a while, which made him sweat coldly and flustered.
He watched Chen An and Qi Darkin talking, only to feel cold all over, the blood vessels on his head were pounding suddenly, and he was extremely nervous.
Everything about him was based on being the manager of the Huaishan Group, but it was only a matter of one sentence for the young master of the dark forest to dispel him.
That kid named Chen An, will he say something nonsense?
Moreover, he ridiculed Chen An for giving Li Ming a watch for Li Ming, but he didn't understand the true meaning of the night banquet rose, exposing his rude ignorance in front of so many people, and he was embarrassed.
As long as he thought about it for a while, Zeng Maohua's face was red, his face was red, his face was constantly feverish, and he felt uneasy.
Qi Anlin was talking to Chen An, he pushed his glasses and said, "Well, Chen An, as long as you continue, I think that in a year or two, you can be admitted to the First Academy Palace of the Empire, and it is estimated that you will be nine out of ten." ”
Chen Anleng was stunned, he didn't care about learning at all, recently, he just used part of his mind on studying, but more of his mind was used on practicing Wulie Tiangang and Ben Leiyun, but he didn't expect that under the unintentional insertion of willows, his academic performance had reached such a level that he couldn't think of before.
It's just that, with Chen An's current spiritual value of 2.0, it is actually natural to have such a result.
"Well, almost." Chen An laughed.
The clouds they say are light and breeze, plain and indifferent, but they fall on the ears of others but roll like thunder.
The First Academy of the Empire? It is the top three top school palaces in the empire, and countless administrative officials and army officers have been trained for the empire, and similarly, there are many big businessmen from the first school palace, so to speak, once you enter the first school palace of the empire, then it is equivalent to being shrouded in a halo, there are countless networks to use, and the starting point is to throw off countless streets of others.
As for whether it will be taken for granted, of course not, after all, Qi Yanlin is from an extraordinary background, and his experience is far more comparable, no matter what, there is still a point of view from people.
Unexpectedly, Chen An, a seemingly ordinary teenager, had great confidence in being admitted to the First Academy of the Empire.
It's unbelievable!
No wonder Young Master Dark Forest became friends with Chen An. A lot of people think so.
For a while, people exchanged heads and discussions, and even the eyes of Chen An changed, and even Tang Tian's eyes were shocked by the news, and he couldn't help but look at Chen An a little.
Uncle Li Ming heard such words, and when he heard such words, his face turned red with excitement, this was purely because of excitement, he looked at Chen An, kept nodding, and said, "Xiao An, this is true, okay, Xiao An is good." ”
Zeng Maohua heard such a voice, he only felt that his face was hot, and he was embarrassed, he laughed at Chen An not long ago, saying that Chen An was destined to be a poor ghost for the rest of his life, but now? Qi Darkin's words were like a loud slap in the face, unabashedly slapped in his face, and he was directly slapped in the face!
After all, Chen An is a person who is very sure to be admitted to the first school palace of the empire, as long as he graduates, it is equivalent to stepping on a broad road, and it will not even take many years to get rid of him.
Zeng Maohua stood in place, ashamed and indignant, his heart shook, and the wine in the wine glass in his hand spilled, and he couldn't even hold the wine glass steadily.
The changes that have taken place here are so striking that more and more people are coming around, three layers inside and three layers outside, people are looking at each other, or lowering their voices and discussing something softly.
For a moment, there was a low buzz in the hall.
"Hey, Xiao An, what's going on? How are you being watched by so many people?" Chen Ying squeezed into the crowd, her expression full of worry and concern.
"Oh, nothing, I met a friend, and we had a casual conversation." Chen An smiled slightly.
"Is that so? It's okay to be fine. Chen Ying was still a little skeptical, but her expression was still relaxed.
After Chen Ying and Qi Yanlin got to know each other briefly, Chen An coughed and said, "Then, go to the place where we are." ”
"Let's go, let's talk." Qi Darkin smiled.
"Okay, let's go to the side hall......"
"No, no, no, it's not a side hall, it's not a side hall, it's a hall, it's a hall." As soon as Chen An's words were halfway through, his aunt in the crowd rushed out, looked at Chen An, and said eagerly: "Xiao An, it's a hall, it's really a hall." ”
"Oh, where we just stayed, is it really the hall?" Chen An looked at his aunt, and the smile on his face was a little cold.
When we came just now, we were still in the side hall like waste, but now we have shown our value, and said that they arranged us in the hall and treated us as something!
Even her sister Chen Ying stood next to her and fell silent.
Uncle Li Ming found that something was wrong, frowned, and said, "Well, what's the matter?" ”
"Nothing, nothing, really nothing, nothing." My aunt hurriedly waved her hand, her fat cheeks showed urgency, and said, "I arranged Xiao An and Xiao Ying in the hall, really in the hall." ”
How can she admit that she arranged Chen An and Chen Ying in the side hall, once she admits it, not to mention that her uncle is furious and wants to turn his face with him, even she will be ruined, disgusted with her nephews and nieces, deliberately put her nephews and nieces aside, and to some extent prevent them from attending the family banquet, she can't afford this kind of statement at all!
And the key to all this is to see what Chen An says.
"Xiao An, you say, right, you are juniors, why would your aunt arrange you in a place like the side hall, your aunt arranged you in the hall, and also arranged an uncle for you to know, right, Xiao An, right?" My aunt's face was flushed, and her anxious tears were about to come out, and she looked at Chen An's gaze, and even a hint of pleading appeared.
"Auntie, is that really the case?" Chen An still smiled slightly, and said, "But, why didn't I remember that I didn't arrange us in the hall?"
"Auntie, you say, am I mistaken? Or are you doing it wrong! ”
My aunt's face turned pale, and even her breathing was a little unnatural.
"I ......" my aunt opened her mouth, her face was blue and white, but she couldn't even say a word.
She couldn't refute Chen An, after all, she was the one who did it wrong, but once Chen An really said it, it would be all over.
What to do? What to do? What should I do, what should I do so that Chen An does not tell the real situation.
My aunt's hand was clutching the dress tightly, and her body trembled slightly, and she was almost crazy.
The eyes she looked at Chen An and Chen Ying were full of chagrin and self-blame, as well as deep regret.
If Chen An and Chen Ying didn't look down on them and treat them as their nephews and nieces when they came, how good it would be, but it's a pity, everything happened, and everything was late.
What should I do now? What should I do?
"Xiao An, you are mistaken, we have always been in the hall, it has not changed, we have always been in the hall." Chen Ying said suddenly, she turned her gaze and looked at Chen An.
Chen An was stunned, and then fell silent, he knew that his sister was still soft-hearted and asked him to admit that they had been in the hall all along.
In fact, Chen An didn't think about saying that his aunt arranged them in the side hall, so that he could breathe a sigh of relief, but he was just quick to speak, so that not only did his aunt be accused of all kinds of ups and downs, and his uncle's family would be affected, but also I am afraid that even the uncle who had just been promoted would also be affected, and Chen An didn't know right and wrong, and he didn't know what the consequences would be if he did so.
He deliberately said this speciously, just to make his aunt anxious and taste the taste of panic, and it can be regarded as a small reward for the depression that his aunt arranged him and his sister in the side hall from the beginning.
It's just that he didn't expect that just halfway through, his sister Chen Ying interrupted him.
After all, my sister is really a kind-hearted person.
Chen An shook the wine glass in his hand, nodded, and said, "Yes, sister, you are right, we were arranged in the hall by my aunt from the beginning, in fact, my aunt took good care of us." ”
Although Uncle Li Ming was a little puzzled about what happened, after a cursory thought, he didn't find anything wrong, and immediately said with a smile: "Of course, Xiao An, you don't know, your aunt is very virtuous, keeps the house in order, and takes care of Li Te and Li Xuan, I think, she must take care of you like this." ”
My aunt was obviously relieved, and said busily: "Actually, Xiao An and Xiao Ying are very well-behaved, especially Xiao Ying, unlike Li Xuan's girl, who has been putting on makeup for more than an hour, and she hasn't gone downstairs yet, and she still can't forget the newly arrived imperial capital perfume, ouch hey, that's at least 400 yuan." “
As soon as she said this, a girl wearing delicate light makeup walked downstairs, she saw Chen Ying at a glance, her eyes lit up, she ran over, and said, "Xiao Ying, you are here, let's go, come with me to see the perfume from the imperial capital, oh my God, let me tell you, the fragrance is really intoxicating." ”
So my sister Chen Ying was pulled away by my cousin Li Xuan.
Uncle went to greet her, the crowd of onlookers gradually dispersed, and my aunt went to do other things, before leaving, she glanced at Chen An gratefully.
It didn't take long for the hall to be lively again, and it was empty again.
"Come on, Chen An, let's talk." Qi Darkin didn't seem to see what was happening, a gentleman, gentle as jade, and beside him, Tang Tian followed him closely.
Chen An nodded, and then they walked away.
Here, there are only Zeng Maohua and his bodyguards.
Zeng Maohua was in a trance, his mind was blank, he didn't notice what happened at all, he stood for a long time before he slowly came back to his senses.
What if that kid named Chen An said something to Young Master Dark Lin and asked Young Master Dark Forest to fire him? They're friends.
It's not that good, it's just average.
However, Young Master Dark Forest said that they had met before, which meant that they had a good relationship.
That kid has a great deal of confidence in being admitted to the first school palace of the empire.
Hearing those words, that kid must have a mustard in his heart.
Zeng Maohua's heart fluctuated with all kinds of thoughts, the more he thought about it, the more scared he became, and he was almost frightened crazy by his own thoughts and thoughts.
"No, it can't go on like this." Zeng Maohua seemed to be seriously ill, and his voice was hoarse.
"Yes, it can't be like this, I've been in the group for so many years, although I can't do anything, but I'm also an old employee, no, I'm going to ask Young Master Dark Forest." He seemed to have made up his mind, but he didn't dare, what if he disgusted Young Master Dark Forest?
What should I do, what should I do?
Zeng Maohua was extremely anxious in his heart, and suddenly, his eyes lit up, by the way, there is also Li Ming, Li Ming is the uncle of that kid, you can persuade him not to say this.
The thought was like a light that pointed him in the right direction.
Zeng Maohua's eyes lit up, rushed into the crowd, searched in the crowd for a long time, and finally found Li Ming, who was sweating profusely and entertaining guests.
"Li Ming, oh no, Brother Li, Brother Li, Brother Li, Brother Li is good." Zeng Maohua's eyes lit up, with a hint of flattery on his face, and he hurriedly stepped forward.
"Well, Zengli, it's you." Li Ming frowned.
Seeing Li Ming frowning, Zeng Maohua's heart trembled, and he hurriedly took out his usual kung fu to shoot Sima Fart, and said: "Yes, yes, it's me who I am, Brother Li, don't call me Zengli, I don't deserve to be called like this, you can call me Xiao Zeng, just call me Xiao Zeng." ”
"What do you want to do?" Li Ming felt a little wrong, and subconsciously looked at him vigilantly.
"It's nothing, it's just that I suddenly found out that Brother Li has worked hard, it's really hard, how can I let you call me manager like that." Zeng Maohua showed a flattering smile on his face and said: "I just want to say that your nephew, Chen An, is really a young talent, really terrifying in the future, and the future is really limitless." ”
Li Mingle was happy and said, "You just said Chen An, you said that he has been poor all his life......"
"That's when I was blinded by lard, and the dog couldn't spit out ivory from his mouth, and it was all, all." Zeng Maohua panicked, and hurriedly said: "Brother Li, you don't know, I'm a person, sometimes my mouth is a little cheap, hey, old problem, old problem." ”
Li Ming is not a fool, Zeng Maohua's words have been said to this extent, how can he not understand Zeng Maohua's true intentions.
"Hey, I see what you mean, what a big deal, besides, we're colleagues, we still have to work together, that project ......"
"Everyone listens to Brother Li, everyone listens to Brother Li, I only look forward to Brother Li, Brother Li has the final say, everything Brother Li says is right, and what Brother Li says is what it is." Zeng Maohua's eyes lit up, and he immediately nodded and said.
"Hey, they're all colleagues, as for this?" Li Ming waved his hand, with a smile on his face.
"What you want, what you want, what you should be, after all, you are Brother Li, Brother Li, I usually say some wrong things, oh no, I put some dog stinky fart, I hope you have a lot of it, and take care of it."
“……”
Seeing Zeng Maohua looking like a pug, Li Ming comforted him, but as if he had eaten ginseng fruit, his whole body was comfortable, which made him feel like he was raising his eyebrows and being extremely happy.
In the past, he was not only suppressed by Zeng Maohua at work, but now, he has to be pinched by Zeng Maohua because of a project, which is really aggrieved to the extreme.
Now, Zeng Maohua, who looks at himself everywhere and wants to fix himself everywhere, has a low voice and says shameless words, this is simply turning into a serf and becoming a master.
Li Ming's face showed two balls of red, happy, and couldn't stop laughing, he only felt that he had never been so happy and happy in the first half of his life.
