"Hey, you're finally here. You asked us out, and you're the last one here. You'll have to drink a penalty drink later."

A tall man jokingly said this. His hair was a little long and waxed, making him look a bit like a domineering boss.

While speaking, he was hugging a young woman with bright red lips next to him.

The woman was wearing a halter dress, round earrings, and had permed wool curls. She looked very fashionable and dressed in a Hong Kong style.

Zheng Wangshu couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Ding Zibo laughed heartily. "You're quite good at taking advantage of loopholes, kid. If you want to force me to drink, just tell me. It's just that I made you vomit last time. Do you have to be so petty?"

The man who was teased was not angry and continued to be nonchalant.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense and introduce this beautiful lady next to you to everyone."

Ding Zibo took Zheng Wangshu over and sat down, then gave a brief introduction.

"My former colleague worked as a translator. You can just call her Wangshu."

Zheng Wangshu put on a decent smile and greeted everyone.

After a brief introduction, the waiter started serving the dishes.

Ye Yichen poured wine for Ding Zibo and urged him to drink quickly.

Zheng Wangshu watched and laughed from the side, but found that the young woman looked at him from time to time, and he couldn't help feeling a little puzzled.

Soon the dishes were almost served and everyone started discussing the opening of the factory.

When talking about investment, Zheng Wangshu was not vague and said that he would have no problem investing 10,000 or 20,000 yuan.

Ten or twenty thousand yuan is certainly not a lot of money in the eyes of these people, but in the eyes of ordinary people in the 1980s, this may be a family's savings for more than ten years.

As soon as Zheng Wangshu finished speaking, a burst of sneers came from the opposite side. The person who made the noise was the young woman. Her red lips were slightly curled up, and there was a bit of contempt on her face.

"Cousin, it's been so long since we last met, and you're still the same, liking to act rich in front of others. Can you come up with 10,000 or 20,000?"

Everyone was stunned when they heard the word "cousin". Zheng Wangshu frowned and searched the original owner's memory before he recognized who this woman was.

It was none other than Tang Shirou, the daughter of my aunt.

But she didn’t dress like this a few years ago. Now she wears so much makeup that even her mother wouldn’t recognize her.

It is natural to compare children of relatives, especially those of similar age.

Since Tang Yanlin's death, Zheng Wangshu has almost cut off contact with his grandparents. He hasn't seen Tang Shirou for a long time, but the two of them had not gotten along since childhood.

I really didn't expect to meet an acquaintance in such an occasion today, and from the looks of it, Tang Shirou should be dating this gay man named Ye Yichen.

Ding Zibo's expression changed, his brows furrowed, and he looked at his friend beside him.

Ye Yichen was obviously a little surprised and reached out to tug at the corner of Tang Shirou's clothes.

"What's going on? Do you know each other?"

After all, the two were dating, and Ye Yichen thought Tang Shirou knew something. Could it be that Zheng Wangshu was a liar? He was trying to trick his good brother.

Tang Shirou nodded, curled her lips and said, "Of course I know her. She's my aunt's daughter. She's always liked to hang out with people. But I heard she got divorced, and soon after, she got married. The man wasn't very successful either. He's said to be a butcher. Now she wants to give me 10,000 or 20,000 yuan. I'm worried you've been cheated. Sorry, I'm being too straightforward."

The smile on Zheng Wangshu's face gradually faded. It is said that relatives should support and help each other, but sometimes it is just the opposite. The closer the person is, the more they can't bear to see you live well.

Tang Shirou is such a person. She probably feels very proud to be able to date Ye Yichen, and even feels that she has entered the upper class circle. Now that she sees that she has such a good relationship with Ding Zibo, she naturally feels uncomfortable and can't wait to kick herself out.

"Cousin, it's been so long since we last met, and you're still empty-headed and superficial. Are all of you fools? Can you still be fooled by me? Forget about 10,000 or 20,000 yuan. I can also come up with more. Don't bother with this."

Tang Shirou snorted coldly and looked at Zheng Wangshu with contempt.

"Everyone knows how to talk, but why don't you at least give me the money? This is the first time I've heard of a butcher making so much money. Does your husband kill 10,000 pigs a day?"

Having said that, Tang Shirou couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh, with obvious sarcasm in her expression.

Ding Zibo on the side finally couldn't stand it anymore. No matter what, Zheng Wangshu was his friend. No matter whether she was rich or not, it was not Tang Shirou's turn to say anything here.

My good brother's taste in choosing a partner is getting worse and worse. He even brought such a vulgar person here without thinking it's a loss of status.

"Miss, Wangshu is my friend. I don't care what your relationship is, but I should choose my words carefully in this situation. I don't want my friend to be insulted like this. It's only 10,000 or 20,000 yuan. It doesn't matter if I have it or not. I can cover it for her."

Ding Zibo was very domineering and retorted directly. He was a protective person. Not to mention that he had that kind of intention towards Zheng Wangshu, even if he didn't, they were just friends. No one could bully a friend that Ding Zibo had recognized.

Ye Yichen's expression also changed. He felt that Tang Shirou was too direct in her words. Even if Zheng Wangshu was really such a person, she shouldn't have said such nonsense in this situation.

Today's game is organized by Ding Zibo. Isn't her saying this to not give face to her good friend?

"Apologize to Miss Zheng. It's really uncultured of you to speak like that."

Ye Yichen's face darkened. Compared with his brothers, women were naturally not that important.

Tang Shirou was a little surprised that Ding Zibo was so protective of Zheng Wangshu.

It is embarrassing to be criticized in public.

"I didn't say anything wrong. I just meant well and was worried that people would be deceived."

"I feel you are being disrespectful to my friends. If you insist on doing this, I think it would be best if you leave."

Ding Zibo didn't give Ye Yichen any face. Bringing a woman like this out to a dinner party would be too embarrassing. Since that's the case, as a good brother, he would help him cut off this red line.

Tang Shirou was obviously angry and couldn't help but stand up.

"Mr. Ding, you may not know this, but she's already married, a second time, and has no money at all. She probably came here just to get some free food and drinks."

Seeing that she was so stubborn, Ding Zibo threw his chopsticks down.

"Please get out!"

Ye Yichen saw that his brother was really angry, so he dragged Tang Shirou out.

"Do you know what kind of occasion this is? You have to say all this to embarrass me? You really disappoint me. Okay, take a taxi and leave now. I'll come find you later."

Ye Yichen was a little annoyed and felt a little regretful. He shouldn't have brought Tang Shirou out. It was a bit disgraceful.
