CHAPTER XXXVIII
Fang Wei understood the reason for the conflict, pushed aside the crowd, stood in the middle, and said to the stranger who shouted the loudest; "Friend, don't quarrel yet, calm down, dissipate your anger, and have something to say."
The other party saw that there was another person, looked at Fang Wei and said unceremoniously; "Who are you? How old are you? Have you left our business in your hands? Don't interject here, get out of the way, there's no place for you to talk here. ”
When Fang Wei heard the unreasonable words, he still suppressed the fire in his heart and said politely; "It's a bit too much for you to hurt people, I'm kind to persuade you, you're doing it for everyone's good."
Unexpectedly, the other party pushed Fang Wei hard and shouted loudly; "Hurry up and stand aside, or I'll beat you up."
Fang Wei's persuasion not only did not play any role, but the other party became more arrogant, and the anger of the force suddenly rose, and he wanted to step forward to reason with the person who was full of dirty words, feeling that his clothes were being dragged by someone.
He looked back and saw that it was a female colleague, asked him to calm down, and said; "What are we doing today, colleagues and friends are gathering together, there is no need to quarrel with others. In case of a fight, the impact will be bad, and the hall will be full of people who are dining, and they will see our jokes. ”
Fang Wei thought that the female colleague said the same, and the anger just now was suppressed again. He said a lot of kind words to the other party, but the other party still didn't give up.
A female colleague stepped forward to persuade her, but without saying a word, she was pushed by the person who shouted the most, and staggered backwards, if it weren't for Fang Wei's quick eyes and timely support, she would almost fall to the ground.
Fang Wei couldn't bear it any longer, grabbed the person who was doing it, and said in a voice that almost roared out of the dantian; "I told you a few baskets of good words, but you still didn't listen, and you dared to beat women, which is too unusual. If you want to do it, let's go outside, what do you think? ”
At this time, the owner of the hotel and the waiter came to persuade him, and after a lot of effort, he didn't pull the two groups apart. "If you want to fight, we can't control it, then go outside, don't fight in our hotel, in case you break something, you will have to double the compensation."
This group of people did not listen to persuasion at all, and their arrogance became more and more arrogant, shouting loudly, and saying; "Whoever is afraid of whom, let's go outside, whoever doesn't go is the grandson."
Both groups of people drank too much, and the wine came up, one was bolder than the other, pushing and shoving, and scolding out of the hotel.
Fang Wei turned around and whispered a few words to his colleagues, then turned to those people and said; "I advise you to stop here, don't make things out of control, we will meet in the future, don't get entangled anymore, lest the two sides hurt the peace. If you have to distinguish between high and low, we won't rely on the large number of people to bully you, and I will fight with you alone, do you think about it? ”
Several people on the other side laughed contemptuously, and one of them said; "You said that, don't go back."
The colleagues behind Fang Wei, worried that he had made a mistake, did not agree with Fang Wei's suggestion, and shouted at him, but Fang Wei didn't reply, waved his hand to them, signaling to be quiet and not to speak.
said to a few people opposite; "How many of you go together, or do you come one by one?"
They looked at each other for a while, didn't say anything, and out of it came a burly man with five big and three thick, looked Fang Wei up and down, turned back to a few partners and said; "You guys lean back, I'll go up first."
After speaking, he rolled up his arms and sleeves, and pounced viciously at Fang Wei, before he could get closer, Fang Wei's skillful sideways flashed, a fierce fist, a sweeping leg past, a group of people next to him, an exclamation, didn't see his movements clearly, he was already standing behind the person who staggered and fell forward.
Fang Wei gently pushed him from behind, he didn't dare to use too much force, for fear of breaking him, that person was like a collapsed earthen wall, he fell to the ground, and a dog eating came to him, with a gray wolf face, and almost knocked out his teeth.
Before he could react, Fang Wei had already walked up to him, reached out to pull him up from the ground, and patted the dust on his body.
That person was pulled up by Fang Wei and stood there in a daze, unable to distinguish between east and west, north and south, just like a fool.
Several people on the other side stopped shouting, probably frightened, they didn't see Fang Wei's series of movements at all, and easily knocked their companions to the ground, breaking out in a cold sweat.
They didn't react to their fallen companions, and they didn't dare to rush forward, standing in place, staring at Fang Wei with wide eyes.
An exclamation came from the crowd; "Obediently, it turns out that people know martial arts, it seems that the winner or loser has been decided, no wonder he dares to deal with a few by himself, the phrase 'art masters are bold' is really worthy of its name."
Fang Wei looked at the other party, standing there a little timid, not daring to come over to help his companions, he clasped his fists at the other party, and said; "Brothers, how offended, please take your brothers away."
A few people stood there still and didn't move, Fang Wei added another sentence and said; "Don't stand there stupidly, come here and take this brother away."
A few people who were arrogant just now came over to help their brother and said politely to Fang Wei; "This big brother, can you give a name and let the brothers get to know each other. The eldest brother's kung fu brothers have been taught, and the elder brother is merciful, and the five bodies we admire are thrown to the ground. Please leave an address for the eldest brother, and the brothers will visit another day to make friends. ”
Fang Wei said; "My name is not worth mentioning, so it's better not to say it. Today we have a misunderstanding, it is all caused by wine, please brothers do not take it to heart. If there is a chance to meet again, I invite you to my house to sit as guests, I see that a few of you are also people who are mixed on the ground, if you can give a face, ice release the old suspicion, it would be great. ”
Fang Wei said kind words not far away, and those people also heard the meaning of the words, so they left with interest.
Those few people didn't take a few steps, the restaurant owner chased after them and asked them to settle the meal bill, and a few guys who turned around and painted their faces had just received Fang Wei's lesson, and they were on fire in their hearts, and they just didn't set off.
The restaurant owner in front of him, who didn't open his eyes, didn't give any face at all, and dared to ask them for a meal, isn't this humiliating in public, turned around and said; "A table of food can be worth a few dollars, are you afraid that we won't be able to escape, why are you so uninteresting. Although the brothers have a bad temper, they are not to the point of eating and drinking. ”
Seeing that a few people were about to quarrel, Fang Wei hurriedly walked over and whispered in the old version's ear; "You let them go, and I'll pay for that table of meals, no matter how much it is."
From Fang Wei's sincere eyes, the hotel owner didn't see that he was deceiving him, so he let go of the sleeve that was holding the man and let them go.
Those few people were relieved, clasped their fists, and said to Fang Wei; "Brother, it is rare to see a righteous man like you, and the brothers have taken it to heart, as the saying goes; The green mountains do not change, the green water flows for a long time, and we will have a period later. ”
Inside and outside the door of the hotel, there are many people standing on the inside and three floors outside, and they have made a lot of admiration, and even the window glass of the hotel is covered with faces to see the excitement, and the pedestrians on the road stand still, like the audience of the Roman gladiatorial arena, enjoying a game for free.
Fang Wei's neat operation, colleagues and friends were also stunned, and the onlookers were talking one after another, looking at the masculine and handsome guy, as if admiring the heroes returning from the battlefield.
Fang Wei didn't take much effort to settle the matter, the people around him who were watching the excitement breathed a sigh of relief, and when his colleagues looked at Fang Wei again, their eyes were very different from before, revealing admiration.
Fang Wei is strong, kind-spoken, righteous, a little bookish, friends and colleagues have never seen before, he has quarreled with others, and he has never even seen awkwardness.
Fang Wei has his principles, and when he encounters unreasonable people, he must first be reasonable. If you really can't make sense of the other party, you can endure it, let it go, and take a step back will open the sky.
Today, my colleague opened his eyes, and only then did he see that Fang Wei also knew martial arts, he was deeply hidden, he was dealing with fights, he was not in a hurry, he was familiar with the road, he was like flowing water, and he looked so sophisticated, this is really; "After a long time, don't ask for directions, chivalry will last forever."
Fang Wei beckoned his colleagues to return to the hotel, sat down and continued to drink and eat, several male colleagues became active, had some admiration for him, and stretched out their thumbs and praised him again and again.
The female colleague also cast admiring glances, looking at Fang Wei's eyes, there was more tenderness, Fang Wei was embarrassed, a little restrained, feeling uncomfortable, and his shy face turned red.
In society, when encountering those who are quite unreasonable, Fang Wei first chooses to be polite. If there is a deceitful and bullying man, he has never compromised or frowned.
When he met someone who praised him, he couldn't adapt to it, and he looked a little shy, like a little girl, and answered shyly.
Fang Wei hadn't had a conflict with someone else for a long time, and if he hadn't had a party with his colleagues today, he wouldn't have met a few unreasonable people, and of course, he wouldn't have acted excessively.
In order to alleviate his discomfort and prevent his colleagues from looking at him strangely, Fang Wei beckoned the waiter over and said; "Remove a few empty plates and serve a few more good dishes, a little faster, okay?"
At this time, the owner of the restaurant held a plate with two large glasses of wine on it, followed by the waiter with the wine bottle, walked to the table, looked at Fang Wei with a smile, he picked up a large glass of wine from the plate, and said solemnly; "This brother, I see that you are younger than me, and I take the liberty of calling you an old brother. I saw you deal with those gangsters just now, just like playing monkeys, my brother admires it very much, I respect my brother with a glass of wine, let's kill it in one gulp, can you agree? ”
Seeing that the boss was so polite, Fang Wei hurriedly stood up, took the glass of wine handed to him, and said; "Boss, you are too polite, I understand this affection. The kung fu of the three-legged cat just now was more than mentioned, which made the old brother smile. This glass of wine of yours, I will borrow flowers to offer Buddha, and our brothers will dry it in one gulp,"
Before Fang Wei's words fell, a group of people next to him shouted, and his colleagues also coaxed; "Cheers, cheers, the glass must be at the bottom to be sincere."
Fang Wei and the restaurant owner touched the glass, craned his neck, and drank it in one gulp. His throat was like a fire, he choked and coughed again and again, his stomach was like a river and a sea, if he hadn't taken a deep breath in time, he would have pressed the strength of the wine that had surged up, and he almost had to vomit out all the food.
The owner of the hotel sent Fang Wei and his party out of the hotel drunk, and the time was past nine o'clock. The stars in the sky, like countless small eyes, blink and blink, looking at the people who are drunk and walking at night.
A pale yellow moon, the fog hung in the sky, the soft moonlight sprinkled on the earth, the city was like a hoarfrost that had just fallen, covering the streets in front.
The road is like a white Hada, stretching far away; The trees on both sides of the street are dyed silver even their leaves.
Fang Wei and his entourage, standing on the side of the road waiting for a taxi, heard someone calling him behind him, Fang Wei turned around and saw the hotel owner walking over quickly and asked; "Boss, you're calling me, what's the matter?"
The owner of the hotel walked up to him and said politely; "I called you, but I didn't look for you, here's the thing, there is a table of regulars in the private room, let me keep you, they have something to say to you."
Fang Wei looked at the hotel owner and said with some doubts; "Oh, there are no people who eat in your restaurant, I don't know, I'm sorry, you go and tell them, if there's something to talk about another day."
The owner of the hotel said anxiously; "Brother, you can give me a face. Meet with them, they specifically asked me to invite you. These people often come to me, and they seem to be rich people, and one of them, I am quite familiar with, seems to be the owner of some company, and I can't name the specific name of the company. However, there must be something wrong with people inviting you to go, or it's better to meet, what do you say? ”
Fang Wei looked at the boss's sincerity, felt bad about refuting other people's face, and said happily; "Okay, I'll go with you to meet them."
Fang Wei then said to his colleagues; "Come in with me, sit down in the hall and wait, and I'll see them alone."
The group returned to the hotel, found a clean table, sat down, and the hotel owner hurriedly greeted the waiter, brought a few cups, poured tea, and said; "You sit down first, drink some water, I'll accompany my brother in, help him introduce each other, and come out soon."
The owner of the restaurant opened the door of the private room and made a gesture of please, Fang Wei walked in, and several people who were dining stood up.
A man about forty years old, a little bowed, greeted him with a smile on his face, held Fang Wei's hand tightly, and said; "It's a bit presumptuous for me to ask the owner of the hotel to invite you, and I want to ask you not to be surprised."
Fang Wei looked at the few people in front of him, none of whom he knew, and began to wonder in his heart, he didn't know what they were going to do, he was a little suspicious, so he became wary and asked; "You're welcome. We don't know each other and haven't dealt with each other, so what do you have to do with me, please tell me. ”
The hotel owner heard that Fang Wei's words were a little stiff, and quickly explained; "This boss often comes to my place for dinner, we are old acquaintances, you don't have to worry, sit down and talk slowly if you have something to say."
The hotel owner looked at Fang Wei, took his arm, looked at the boss of Xie Ding, and said; "This guy is coming to me for the first time, and we've just met. If there is anything you can talk about, I won't bother you to talk, and I will take my leave first. ”
The person standing next to the wine table brought a chair, invited Fang Wei to sit down, and introduced him to him; "This is the boss of our company, please come over, I don't mean anything else, I just want to get to know you."
Fang Wei was a little confused, thinking to himself, it is really unbelievable that an irrelevant person suddenly came out like this. He looked around the people at the table, but didn't speak.
The bald man seemed to see Fang Wei's thoughts, and hurriedly explained; "Don't get me wrong, brother. I heard the noise in the lobby just now, and saw a group of people walking out of the door of the hotel. We also went out, I wanted to go out to see the excitement, but I didn't expect it, but I saw your wonderful performance, and I had the idea of befriending you at that time. Just now I asked the owner of the hotel to invite you, which was really abrupt, and I have to ask Brother Fang for your understanding. Let's get to know each other formally, make friends, I don't know what my brother thinks? ”
Fang Wei was a little passive, he didn't know how to answer, the people next to him were looking at him, it seemed that it was not okay not to express his position, he said; "You're a big boss, I'm afraid you're going to climb high after making friends with me, right?"
The bald man said; "My brother is serious, I have been talking for a long time, my name has not been told to you, my surname is Ma, my name is Ma Juren, several people partner to do some small business, the name of the company is not worth mentioning. You say these words of high climbing and not climbing, is there any excuse, you are going to reject my sincerity, if this is the case, it will disappoint me. ”
