"Brother Wei. ”

Xu Lao smiled when he heard this, and then stood up directly.

However, seeing this, Wei Jianguo hurriedly ran forward and pressed him back to his seat, pretending to have a bitter face.

"Old birthday star, you are tormenting me, I still want to live a few more years. ”

After saying this, he laughed again.

Wei Jianguo used to be a soldier under Xu Wei, and the two had been in and out of life and death several times, but they were all resolved by their joint efforts.

Although they have a superior-subordinate relationship, the relationship is so good that they are like brothers, Xu Wei has always regarded himself as "Brother Wei", but as he grew older, "Brother Wei" gradually became "Brother Xu", and Wei Jianguo was also promoted from a lieutenant to today's Air Force general.

It's just that Wei Jianguo is now in his sixties, and he will retire at the end of this year.

"Hehe, sit down. Xu Lao coughed lightly.

Wei Jianguo was unceremonious when he heard this, and sat beside him.

The people sitting at their table, although they are all over sixty-five years old, each of them has a terrifying identity, either the old head of the provincial military district, the retired old provincial political commissar, or the old chairman of the major consortia.

These consortia are not comparable to ordinary groups, they have tens of billions of liquidity, hundreds of billions of immovable assets, and more importantly, they control hundreds of thousands of jobs.

Therefore, even Zhang Heng, the mayor of Jinling, is not qualified to share the table with them, not that the position of the vice provincial cadre is not big, but the seniority and identity are there.

Most of the older generation sat in the hall, while the younger ones sat at the wine table in the open space outside the inner courtyard.

And these young boys and girls, whether in conversation or behavior, are beyond the reach of ordinary people of the same age.

Although most of them are rich second generations, ***, and even some star second generations, they all receive higher education, and many of them are students who have returned from overseas.

For example, on the wine table near the lobby, a short-haired beauty attracted countless eyes, she was the granddaughter of the deputy old senior official of J Province, who had just returned from Russia the day before yesterday.

And sitting next to him was also Yu Shao, who came back from the United States not long ago, one of the four young people in Jinling, and a member of the Yu family.

At the table, a swarthy boy with broken hair was already a major at a young age.

If you can make friends with people like them, then your circle of contacts in the future will be completely changed, and your identity and status will naturally rise.

No matter what you do, there will always be someone who can help you, after all, you are in a circle that is higher than your own strength.

And what you think is a problem, in their eyes, may be just a matter of words.

It's just that this kind of circle has to be carefully operated, otherwise you can only be squeezed out in the end, just because you don't have the strength to match them.

But even so, most people still enjoy it, hoping to be able to enter their lives, into the so-called high society.

As time passed, as one dish after another was served on the wine table, the chatter in the courtyard gradually became much quieter, because people's taste buds were hooked by the enticing aroma.

Just as their eyes gradually looked at Xu Lao in the lobby, at this time, the door of the inner courtyard was pushed open again, and they saw Chen Haobai striding in, and beside him was Lydia in black casual clothes.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Xu Lao sitting in the center of the hall in a big red robe, very conspicuous in the crowd, at this time he was talking to a few old men with a smile on his face.

On the wine table to the left of Xu Lao, Chen Haobai found Xu Zixuan, a middle-aged couple sitting next to him, who looked quite similar to him.

If Chen Haobai guessed correctly, they should be Xu Zixuan's parents.

There was also a little girl sitting next to Xu Zixuan, who looked like a porcelain doll, very cute, and the two were knocking on the bowl with chopsticks, playing.

"Brother Haobai!"

It's just that when he saw Chen Haobai walking in, Xu Zixuan's eyes lit up, and he immediately left the little girl and jumped down from the bench, and then ran towards him.

The couple also looked towards the door when they heard the sound, and Chen Haobai nodded at them when he saw this.

Xu Lao, who was sitting in the center, heard his grandson's voice, and also raised his head, and then after seeing Chen Haobai, a smile appeared on his face.

"Hehe, Haobai, you're here. ”

Xu Lao's voice was not loud, but the people in the lobby could hear it, and suddenly everyone's eyes "swooped", and all of them focused on the door.

Chen Haobai was a little embarrassed to see that he was being watched by so many people, he licked his lips, and then walked to the lobby with Lydia in front of everyone.

"Hello Grandpa Xu. ”

When he came to Xu Lao, he shouted politely, and then handed the apple in his hand directly to the other party.

Xu Lao looked at the red plastic bag he handed over, and was stunned on the spot, but after seeing the contents of the bag, his face suddenly showed a strange look.

But he soon recovered again, he glanced at Chen Haobai with a smile, and then turned his head to look at Lydia who was standing aside.

"This is your friend. ”

Chen Haobai nodded when he heard this: "Well, thanks to Grandpa Xu's help." ”

Saying that, Chen Hao's white eyes gestured to Lydia beside him, on the way over, he told the other party that the person he was going to see later was also her lifesaver, and he hoped that she could thank Xu Lao in person.

It's just that at this time, Lydia was obviously not ready to say thank you, and stood there looking at Xu Lao calmly.

Xu Lao and Lydia looked at each other, but when they saw that the other party was not afraid of his eyes, they were secretly surprised.

"Zixuan, take your brother and them down to sit. ”

Then Xu Lao turned his head and looked at his grandson.

When Xu Zixuan heard this, he directly pulled up Chen Haobai's clothes and dragged them to his parents' table.

"Brother Haobai, big sister, you sit here. ”

I saw that except for the two twelve-year-old children, the rest of the table were middle-aged, most of them were dressed in formal clothes, the men looked dignified, and the women looked dignified.

Then Chen Haobai turned his head to look outside, only to see that although many people seemed to be chatting, their eyes were always paying attention to this side.

"Brother Haobai, why don't you sit?"

The child obviously didn't understand, and seeing that Chen Haobai didn't sit down for a long time, he asked suspiciously.

"Well, let's sit outside, right?"

However, as soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged woman sitting next to Xu Zixuan spoke: "It's okay, you just sit here, Zixuan seems to like you a lot." ”

Hearing this, Chen Haobai hesitated and finally nodded and sat down.

However, he didn't know that from the moment he sat down, everyone remembered his appearance.

So much so that the young men and women who drove the supercar were shocked when they saw that Chen Haobai was the only young man sitting in the lobby.
