Before the New Year holiday, Su Tiantian was tricked into returning home by a 200,000 yuan promise. The village distributing land money was real, but the desire to trick her into coming home early ...
At this time, the old man sitting next to the gray-haired old man said, "Fifth brother, I am your second brother Luo Yonglin. I think I met you seven years ago, when your sixth brother was sick and hospitalized. Alas, your sixth brother was younger than us, and unexpectedly passed away first. Among our six brothers, your sixth brother looks the most like you, and your son Jiaxing also looks like you."
Liu Zhaosheng sneered and said, "Alright, stop pretending. I don't have any family ties with you guys, but since you're guests, I'll still treat you to a meal. Order first."
The atmosphere in the box became even more tense because of Liu Zhaosheng's words. The Luo family members looked at each other in bewilderment. They had not expected Liu Zhaosheng to so bluntly expose their disguise. The gray-haired old man showed a trace of embarrassment on his face, but still said with all his strength, "Old Five, your words are too formal. We really didn't mean anything else."
An old man who looked to be around 60 years old said, "Fifth brother, I am your third brother Luo Junlin. Your fourth brother said he didn't have the face to see you, but I still wanted to come and see you. When you returned to the Luo family, I was still a minor and couldn't support myself. I really couldn't help you."
This is a wise statement and it is true. At least it is much more sincere than his elder and second brothers.
Lan Quancong walked out of the private room, called the waiter, and handed the menu to everyone in the Luo family.
The indifference in Liu Zhaosheng's eyes did not diminish at all. He said calmly, "Order whatever you want to eat. You're welcome."
Liu Zhaosheng's gray-haired elder brother Luo Dalin took the menu, flipped through it symbolically, and said, "Old Fifth, don't spend money, just eat something casually." But he ordered several expensive dishes.
Seeing this, the other Luo family members also became impolite, and they kept asking for more dishes, as if they wanted to make up for the advantage they had not enjoyed for many years. Luo Junlin did not order a single dish, but said, "That's enough. It would be a waste if we ordered too many dishes and couldn't finish them."
Luo Jiaxing also pretended to be serious and said, "This is the best hotel in town. The restaurant here is very expensive. Don't order too many dishes."
A young Luo family descendant said, "It's a rare occasion for us all to get together, so of course we have to eat something good. Uncle Wu has plenty of money, so are you worried about not being able to afford this meal?"
A man in his 30s, dressed in a suit, didn't order anything. He smiled and said, "Hello, Uncle Wu. I'm your second brother Luo Junlin's eldest son. My name is Luo Yuxing. I'm sorry to ask you to treat me to a meal. I'll treat you this time."
It's interesting. Finally someone knows they can't be short-sighted and should play the long game. Unfortunately, someone won't cooperate. The woman sitting next to him said, "Hubby, if Uncle Wu wants to treat us to a meal, then let him treat us. How can we refuse his kindness?"
Su Tiantian watched this scene from the side and couldn't help but shake her head secretly. She noticed that Liu Zhaosheng's brows were slightly furrowed, while Liu Jingze seemed to be used to it, with a faint smile on his lips.
Soon, the dishes arrived one by one. The table, which could seat 20, had plenty of table space, and the dishes were piled high, the aroma filling the air, but the atmosphere was still a little subdued.
Everyone in the Luo family started to eat, and while eating, they did not forget to say some flattering words.
"Fifth Uncle, you see, our family has finally gathered together now, so we need to visit each other more often in the future." A young member of the Luo family said.
"Uncle Wu, I heard that your logistics park is about to be completed. Will you be recruiting people then? Can you reserve a position for my husband? It doesn't have to be a very high position, just a manager, someone who can manage people." said a middle-aged woman.
Liu Zhaosheng did not respond, but just ate his food by himself, as if what these people said had nothing to do with him.
Luo Yuxing stood up, holding his glass, and said with a smile, "Fifth Uncle, I offer you a toast. I wish you good health and a prosperous business." Liu Zhaosheng only nodded slightly and did not respond to his toast. Luo Yuxing stood there awkwardly, not knowing what to do, and finally sat down in a sullen manner.
At this time, Luo Jiaxing spoke again: "Fifth Uncle, I have a very good project recently, but it's a bit difficult to get the start-up capital. Do you think it's possible to..."
Before he could finish, Liu Zhaosheng interrupted him coldly: "Luo Jiaxing, I told you that last time was the last time I helped you. Don't push your luck anymore."
Luo Jiaxing's face turned very ugly. He didn't expect that Liu Zhaosheng really didn't give him any face at all. He wanted to say something, but was stopped by his uncle Luo Dalin with a look.
Luo Dalin put down his chopsticks, cleared his throat and said, "Old Five, Jiaxing is naive, don't argue with him. I don't understand work matters, and I'm really worried about you. You have no children, so you might want to adopt a son so that someone can take care of you in the future."
Liu Zhaosheng raised his head and looked at Luo Dalin with cold eyes: "I have a son, he is dead. As for taking care of me, I have my godson Liu Jingze, you don't have to worry about it."
Luo Yonglin was anxious: "A godchild is different from an adopted child. A godchild has no blood relationship with you. If you adopt a nephew, he will treat you like his biological father. Family ties and blood ties cannot be severed."
Liu Zhaosheng snorted, his voice filled with vicissitudes and sorrow. "Family and blood? When I was sent back to the Luo family, which of you took me in? How much suffering did I endure in the orphanage, and where were you? When my wife and children died, did you know? I ate countless times more rice at the Xiao and Liu families than at the Luo family. Now that I'm rich, you all come to me. How can such a cheap thing exist in the world? The family and blood you talk about are shackles to me."
Luo Yonglin was left speechless, his face turning red and white.
When the other members of the Luo family heard this, they immediately became anxious. The middle-aged woman began to wipe her tears again: "Fifth Uncle, how can you be so heartless? We are a family."
