"Brother Hong, back then, I was the one who helped Brother Tomai to operate you to the provincial hall." Lin Lin finally said the key point.

"Oh, benefactor, great benefactor. Brother Mai, I'm sorry, please accept my belated gratitude and apologies!" Zhang Hong took a step forward, his hands clasped tightly with Mai Qiang's.

"Dean Zhang is polite! How to be grateful and apologize."

"Brother Mai, I'm really not wrong about this. If it weren't for your help back then, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to go to the provincial office, and I wouldn't be where I am today. Therefore, gratitude is a must, a must."

"Back then, I was indeed a bit of a bastard, and I did something wrong and shamed Brother Mai, so an apology is also necessary." Zhang Hong looked frank and unrestrained.

"Dean Zhang, I only understand now, why you can get along so well with Brother Lin, it turns out that the temperament of the two of you is the same. Be open-minded, dare to act, good, great!" After listening to Zhang Hong's words, Mai Qiang fell in love with Zhang Hong.

"Brother Hong, sit here." Meiyi asked Zhang Hong to sit next to Lin Lin.

"Thank you, Meiyi, you're welcome. I haven't seen Arlene for a long time, and I want to chat with Arlene more."

Zhang Hong sat down, and the waiter also added an extra pair of dishes and chopsticks.

"Arlene, why did you suddenly think that she and Meiyi came to the deep city, and they made a surprise attack, it's not good."

"Hehe, I knew that Brother Hong would blame me. You know, I'm not in a good position right now, and it's not easy to take time off. So, I want to send my son to school with Mei Yi, then rest for the night and drive back tomorrow morning."

"I'll tell you the truth, if it weren't for Big Brother Mai mentioning it, I wouldn't want to alarm you."

"Look, look. Arlene, you're not so funny, are you?! I know it's not easy for you, but no matter what, since you're here, you have to tell me, and it's good to meet you. Hehe, thanks to Brother Mai, otherwise, you and Meiyi would have slipped away again."

"Hey, by the way, your son was admitted to Shenzhen University?"

"Yes."

"Awesome, it's really a tiger father without a dog. Hey, what did he study?"

"Computers."

"Well, well, this is for Shenda. In the country, the city with the most developed electronics industry is none other than Shencheng. Hey, give me Hou Ze's mobile phone number, when you are free, I will ask him to come out and relax, and you can also tell Hou Ze by the way, let him know that I am Uncle Zhang."

"Okay." Lin Lin told Zhang Hong Houze's mobile phone number.

"Hey, Yuan Xuan's wife, is it Meiyi's sister?"

"Yes. Speaking of which, Yuan Xuan is my brother-in-law."

"Why didn't you tell him?"

"Hey, Brother Hong, Sister Meixue is good, but Yuan Xuan shouldn't touch him. He's got negative energy in every pore of his body, and I don't want my son to get into his habits."

"Haha, Arlene, it's rare to hear you say that about someone."

"Hehe, I was bitten by a snake once, and I was afraid of the well rope for ten years. There are some people who should stay away, no matter who they are, I will not hesitate to stay away."

"Oh, am I going to stay away from him too?"

"If Brother Hong doesn't ask, I won't say it, because I believe Brother Hong has the ability to distinguish clearly."

"However, since Brother Hong asked, I still suggest that you stay away from him. Of course, if Meiyi's sister needs help, and you happen to know it and can help, you should ask Brother Hong to help."

"Okay, I see. Haha, I just like Arlene's clear personality."

"Brother Mai, I can still get up from the gutter this time, all thanks to Arlene's help. Arlene's friendship, I Zhang Hong can't pay it back in my life."

"Brother Hong, what you said is not right. We have been classmates for five years, have been in the same room for five years, and we know each other very well. It's not just me, Vigo, they're the hardest people."

"Yes, it's nostalgic to think about five years of university life. Speaking of Vigo, it's really admirable, and you, Arlene, not only I admire, but I ask the classmates in our class, who doesn't admire?"

"Well, Dean Zhang said

That's right, Brother Lin, there are so many things that we admire." Mai Qiang interjected.

"Brother Mai, you can also call me Brother Zhang, and Arlene, just call me Brother Hong, after all, you are the youngest in our class. But don't call you any more "you" or anything, it sounds awkward."

"Okay, I'll listen to Brother Hong." Lin Lin said with a smile.

"Rejoice! Come, Brother Zhang, let's have a cup with each other, start with a cup and stop with a cup." Mai Qiang raised his glass.

"Okay, I'll give you a drink." Zhang Hong picked up the wine glass, touched it with Mai Qiang's wine glass, and then drank it all.

For Zhang Hong and Mak Qiang, it is a "win-win" thing for them to know each other. In the future, once Mai Qiang has any headache and fever, it will be much more convenient to ask Zhang Hong to help deal with it.

Not to mention Zhang Hong, Mai Qiang is kind to him, and he is a successful person in the shopping mall, maybe Zhang Hong will also find Mai Qiang to help.

"Brother Hong, can I ask you a very private question?"

"Arlene, I know what you want to ask, let me tell you, my problem has been solved, and there is a 3-year-old kid." Zhang Hong really has a heart.

"Haha, those who understand me, Brother Hong! Come, Meiyi, Brother Mai, sister-in-law, let's replace wine with tea, congratulations to Brother Hong." When Lin Lin heard this, she became happy, and immediately congratulated Zhang Hong with Meiyi.

"Brother Lin, this love between you and Brother Zhang is really not simple. I've lived half my life, and I've finally understood something. People, in this world, if there are so many close friends, it is not in vain to go to this world." Mai Qiang was very emotional.

"Brother Mai, I absolutely agree with what you say. Actually, I was very lucky. I can become classmates and friends with Arlene, and then, through Arlene, I become friends with Brother Mai again. The help you both have given me in my life's journey has changed my destiny."

"To paraphrase Brother Mai's words, I have never made a trip in vain in this world in my life."

"Brother Mai, do you say yes, is there anyone who can care about me so much in career and life, help me, only Arlene, there will be Brother Mai in the future."

"Brother Zhang, in fact, in the final analysis, it is Brother Lin who plays the role of a bridge."

"Well, it's better to sum it up than Big Brother."

They were together, eating, talking, and sighing. It wasn't until Zhang Hong's unit called him and asked him to rush back to deal with urgent matters that Zhang Hong said goodbye and left.

"Arlene, I may not be able to send you tomorrow, and I will be in the deep city, remember to tell me." Before leaving, Zhang Hong said to Lin Lin.
