Chapter 152: Zhou Zhihao
Xiao Yu followed Uncle Zhao all the way inside.
This Jiangnan Spring Hotel is worthy of being one of the few high-end hotels on the beach in Shanghai, and the decoration and furnishings inside adopt the ancient Chinese court style, which can be said to be resplendent and extravagant.
Even the tableware on the table is glittering and exquisite, highlighting the noble and luxurious overall atmosphere, and the waiters are dressed in ancient court costumes, making people feel as if they have entered an ancient imperial palace.
Xiao Yu found that almost every waiter who passed by greeted Uncle Zhao politely, and it seemed that this Uncle Zhao was a frequent visitor here.
Passing through the lobby on the first floor, Uncle Zhao took Xiaoyu to the elevator, and the two took the elevator all the way to the third floor.
Uncle Zhao introduced to Xiaoyu in the elevator that the first floor of the hotel is the lobby, the second floor is a private room, the third floor is a place for holding large parties or weddings, and there are rooms for guests to rest on the fourth floor.
Xiao Yu tried to ask about the cost of the private room, with a minimum consumption of 5,000 yuan, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, people are more popular than people, and his small restaurant is probably just a drop in the bucket.
Compared with the environment on the first floor, the design of the third floor is obviously for people to do all kinds of gatherings, and today it is obviously a special arrangement, in the middle is an empty field, and a circle of tables full of food and wine is set up around the venue, and there are more than ten chefs and bartenders, who are carefully preparing at the table.
Guests can choose their favorite food at the table at any time, and it seems that Shen Mengqi's birthday party is held in a buffet style.
At the door, the Shen family specially arranged two reception ladies to be responsible for registering the names of the guests, Xiao Yu handed over the invitation card given to him by Shen Mengqi to the reception lady and signed his name on the guest registration book.
And Uncle Zhao is the driver of the Shen family, and the reception lady knows each other, so naturally he doesn't need to show any invitation card, and after Xiaoyu signed his name, he walked in with Xiaoyu.
At this time, there were more than 100 guests on the third floor, divided into more than 20 large and small circles, some standing in the open space in the center of the venue, and some sitting on the sofa against the wall around them, chatting with friends.
At the end, there was a small rostrum with a large banner - "Happy seventeenth birthday to Miss Shen Mengqi!" ”
"Uncle Zhao, why are there so many people?" Xiao Yu was a little dumbfounded, although he expected that there would definitely be people at Shen Mengqi's party, but he didn't expect that there would be so many people, although there were many young men and women of the same age as Shen Mengqi among these people, but there were also middle-aged people in their forties and fifties, was there a mistake? What are these people doing here?
Uncle Zhao smiled and said, "Xiaoyu, our captain's business is quite big, so my daughter's birthday, naturally there are friends in the business field to congratulate, now there are still few people, and when it officially starts at six o'clock, it should be twice as much!" ”
Xiao Yu knew in his heart, people who do business naturally refused to let go of any opportunity, this daughter's birthday party was like a social meeting in the shopping mall, and he couldn't help but feel pity for Shen Mengqi in his heart, it seems that the children of rich families also have their own troubles.
Looking at these people in front of him, Xiao Yu felt a little interested, and said to Uncle Zhao, "Uncle Zhao, you go and get busy, I'll find a place to sit casually." ”
Uncle Zhao glanced at Xiao Yu with some surprise, nodded, pointed to a sofa against the corner and said, "Xiao Yu, you can sit there for a while now, and I'll go find Qiqi." ”
After saying that, he hurriedly walked inside.
Xiao Yu was a little hungry, so he first walked around the dining table, took a few pastries with a small plate, walked to the sofa that Uncle Zhao pointed out to him, sat down and tasted it slowly.
The pastries here are mainly Western-style pastries, exquisite workmanship, Xiao Yu scanned it roughly, and the attributes were very good, and I couldn't help but secretly praise it, this 'Jiangnan Spring' is worthy of being a big hotel, and even the craftsmanship of the pastry chef is extraordinary.
Just when Xiao Yu was eating hard, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ears, "Master! You're finally here! ”
Xiao Yu was taken aback, a piece of pastry was stuck in his throat, he almost choked, he swallowed the pastry with a red face, and when he looked up, there was a short boy standing next to him, and it was really Shen Mengqi's cousin Zhou Zhihao.
"Hey, Zhou Zhihao, I said that you can't be so surprised when you appear in the future, I almost choked on the pastry just now. Also, don't call me Master, I didn't promise to accept you as an apprentice. Xiao Yu put the plate in his hand on the coffee table and looked at Zhou Zhihao.
This kid is still the same, wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and looks like a cartoon character from a Japanese cartoon - Detective Conan.
It's just that he should be almost seventeen years old, right? Why is it still so short? Isn't it still developing? No wonder you're being bullied.
It is not surprising to see Zhou Zhihao here, he is both Shen Mengqi's classmate and his cousin, and both of these two identities are enough for him to receive an invitation.
"Hehe, Master, if you don't accept me, I will rely on you, anyway, I won't worship the second person as a teacher!" Zhou Zhihao sat down next to Xiao Yu, his eyes full of admiration.
It can be seen that the scene in the grove that day, Xiao Yu established a tall image in his heart that is almost like a god.
Xiao Yu shook his head, there was no way, when he came across this kraft candy, he could only go with him, looked at the center of the venue and saw no trace of Shen Mengqi, and couldn't help asking, "What about your cousin?" Why haven't you seen her come out yet? ”
"Oh, the woman's thing is trouble, it's just a birthday party, she makes it like a wedding, and she puts on makeup in the back! She also dragged me to accompany her, and it has been more than an hour, and I haven't finished it yet, I'm really bored, and I heard Uncle Zhao say that you are here, so I ran out to find you! Zhou Zhihao seemed to have ADHD, sitting on the sofa and not restless, his head was like a groundhog, stretching his neck to look around.
Xiao Yu noticed that this kid looked at the place where there were many beautiful women, and it seemed that the male Hormon was already stirring in his body.
"Zhou Zhihao, your cousin must have spent a lot of money on this birthday party, right?" Xiao Yu saw that as the number of guests increased, those chefs began to get busy, bottles of wine that seemed to be worth a lot of wine were constantly opened and poured into rows of empty wine glasses, and those chefs who were in charge of cooking hot food showed their skills, and the tempting aroma spread, even Xiao Yu could smell it here.
"Master, don't worry, my cousin is a little rich woman, no matter how much money she has, she can afford to spend it, this Jiang Nanchun was originally opened by her family, what's the big deal about holding a party." Zhou Zhihao said nonchalantly.
"What? This Jiangnan Spring was opened by her family? Xiao Yu was shocked, no wonder Shen Mengqi had such a good private car at home, with the strength of 'Jiang Nanchun', it was as simple as buying a bicycle.
Zhou Zhihao suddenly remembered that his cousin had told him not to reveal her family history in front of Zhang Xiaoyu, and secretly screamed in his heart, and couldn't help but stick out his tongue.
Suddenly, Xiao Yu found that there was a familiar figure in the group of people closest to them.
"Why is he here too?" Xiao Yu was a little depressed in his heart, and when he saw this person, his heart was as disgusting as eating a fly.
"Who's that guy?" Zhou Zhihao followed Xiao Yu's gaze, and saw a young man of eighteen or nineteen, in a straight suit, looking handsome and extraordinary, standing not far away and talking to a few men and women of the same age, those young men and women all looked at the young man with envious eyes, which made the young man feel pretentious.
"This guy's name is Wang Tao, the heir of Jinsheng Group in the future." Xiao Yu said angrily.
"Oh, it's him! How? Master, did you have a holiday with him? Zhou Zhihao immediately saw that something was wrong with Xiao Yu's expression.
"Little things, it's nothing to do with you!" Xiao Yu waved his hand, there is no need to say anything to Zhou Zhihao about the matter between himself and Wang Tao, if he is involved, it will not be good.
When the two were talking in a whisper, Wang Tao also saw Xiao Yu sitting on the sofa, his eyes were stunned, and then a sinister smile hung on his lips.
"It's a little tiring to stand and talk, let's go sit on the sofa!" Wang Tao greeted the young men and women.
Naturally, the men followed him to the sofa in the corner.
"Alas, isn't this Boss Zhang!" Wang Tao pretended to have just seen Xiao Yu and exclaimed exaggeratedly.
The few people around him listened to Wang Tao's words, and couldn't help but be surprised in their hearts, this is the son of that big consortium again? Even the eldest son of Jinsheng Group went up to say hello in person, why hadn't he seen it before?
These young ladies and sons usually have their own circles, as the saying goes, like gathers like things, these people know everything about the big consortia on the beach and the young ladies in the big boss's house, and Xiaoyu is obviously a strange face, could it be which new big consortium?
Xiao Yu ignored him, picked up the plate on the coffee table by himself, and ate the remaining pastries.
Wang Tao didn't care at all, and said to those young ladies and sons, "Come on, let me introduce to you, this is my classmate, Zhang Xiaoyu, his business is very big, he opened a hot sauce noodle shop on Tianlin Road, and also sells breakfast, if you are interested, you can go to Duoduo!" ”
"Cut, it turned out to be a small noodle shop! I thought it was some kind of big guy! ”
"People are good-looking, but it's a pity that my dad won't let me find a poor man as a boyfriend."
"I said that his clothes are not famous brands, it turned out to be a ramen chef, and the money he earned in a month is not enough for me to spend, hehe."
……
These young ladies and sons talked in a whisper next to them, and they all looked at Xiaoyu with disdainful eyes, Wang Tao was very happy, what he wanted was this effect, let Zhang Xiaoyu know, what is three, six, nine and so on! High and low! A poor boy still wants to fight me? It's a dream!
Xiao Yu regarded those people's words as fart, and didn't take them to heart at all, and didn't even look at Wang Tao with a straight eye.
But Zhou Zhihao next to him couldn't sit still, in his heart, Xiaoyu was his master, and now someone insulted his master, it was the same as hitting him in the mouth.
He suddenly stood up from his seat, "What are you guys?" It's just that the family has money, and they have the ability to earn money to support themselves! My master is much more capable than you! In my eyes, you are a bunch of moths! ”
Zhou Zhihao's words immediately caused the displeasure of these people, but they couldn't refute it, and they all glared at him with vicious eyes.
Xiao Yu frowned, this week Zhihao was too uncontrollable, he actually offended those young ladies and sons for himself, but he secretly admired him in his heart, this kid has a sense of justice in his backbone, just like he dared to fight with Chen Bo and others at school, here, he is also not afraid of any provocation.
It seems that he can consider accepting him as an apprentice.
"Yo, which green onion are you? I'm talking to Zhang Xiaoyu, what's the matter with you? Is it itchy and underwhelming? Wang Tao glanced at Zhou Zhihao up and down and found that he didn't know him.
"He's my apprentice, if you don't want to be beaten, get out of the way, otherwise I'm welcome!" Xiao Yu finally spoke, it didn't matter if Wang Tao hurt him with his words, but he couldn't watch Zhou Zhihao being bullied.
"Master!" Zhou Zhihao was excited for a while, and finally Xiao Yu was willing to admit that he was his apprentice, thinking of Xiao Yu's kung fu, he couldn't help but be a little more courageous, and said with his neck straight, "Did you hear that!" My master told you to get out of the way! ”
Wang Tao was so angry that his face was red and white, and he pointed at Xiao Yu and said, "Zhang Xiaoyu, don't be arrogant, I will come to collect the house on time next month!" See what you do! ”
Xiao Yu gave him a roll of his eyes and scolded, "Silly B!" And they took no more care of him.
And Zhou Zhihao directly gave him a middle finger.
looked at the back of Wang Tao and others who were leaving in a huff.
Zhou Zhihao glanced at Xiao Yu cautiously and said, "Master, I didn't cause you trouble, did I?" ”
Xiao Yu smiled, patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, you did a good job!" This kind of person just owes scolding, and if you scold more, you will get used to it. ”
Zhou Zhihao immediately became bright, remembering what Wang Tao had talked about just now, and asked, "Master, have you rented his house?" Does it matter? Do you want me to help you figure it out? ”
"I've found a new store, I can move in next month, it's okay!" Xiao Yu smiled slightly, what can you do for me?
"That's good! Hey, my cousin is out! ”
Zhou Zhihao's eyes were sharp, and he saw Shen Mengqi in the distance at a glance, and stood up and waved to her.
