147: This is the atmosphere a party should have!
It turned out that this red wine was neither ordered by Chen Yan nor sent by the hotel manager to please Chen Yan.
This was everyone’s first thought.
Everyone's second thought was also very consistent: Who is Mr. Shen Er, and why did he send such expensive red wine?
Someone else grasped the key point and broke the silence by saying, "Excuse me, which Mr. Gu is this wine for?"
Is there any classmate named Gu in your class?
No.
There was only one Mr. Gu in the banquet hall, and that was Gu Jun.
This is actually an open-book exam, but everyone finds it difficult to accept the correct answer at the moment.
The waiter gave a polite smile, a sign of having been trained for a long time: "It's for Mr. Gu Jun."
——It’s really Gu Jun!
Everyone in the banquet hall was looking at Gu Jun, including Xu Yao.
Xu Yao knew who Mr. Shen Er was, but she hadn't expected Shen Zhongjun to send someone to deliver red wine to Gu Jun. It seemed Gu Jun was too modest when he mentioned a promotion that morning. A big shot like Shen Zhongjun wouldn't show favor to an ordinary person. Gu Jun must be worthy enough to have Shen Zhongjun send him wine... Gu Jun was truly indispensable at Huahu!
Xu Yao was just short of writing the five big words "Hubby, you're great" on her face, and her eyes were full of admiration when she looked at Gu Jun.
Those classmates who looked down on Gu Jun because of his poor background were so shallow. They had no idea how capable Gu Jun was!
Teacher Li was an honest man. He asked Gu Jun bluntly, "Who is Mr. Shen Er? Why did he give you such expensive wine, and several bottles at once? Gu Jun, don't think I'm too talkative. I don't understand the affairs of you young people, but I know there is no free lunch in this world. You will have to repay such an expensive favor in the future."
In Teacher Li's eyes, a bottle of red wine worth tens of thousands of yuan is already a valuable gift.
Gu Jun did not feel any joy of being proud.
That old fox Shen Zhongjun is really meddling in other people’s business!
When a few bottles of light wine were delivered, Gu Jun showed off in the banquet hall, but he had to explain to Xu Yao when he returned.
Before Gu Jun responded to Teacher Li's concerns, Wen Yiyi's lackey couldn't help but questioned him in a teasing manner, "Gu Jun, you're really good. After holding it in for so long, you finally came up with a way to prove that you're doing well. There's no such thing as Mr. Shen Er. I think you're just spending money to buy face! Hey, hey, hey, red wine that costs tens of thousands of dollars a bottle is not something we ordinary people can afford. It's not easy for you to make money as a programmer. Why do you have to spend the money you earned through hard work on false face? It's better to save the money and take Xu Yao to eat and wear something nice, don't you think?"
Xu Yao doesn’t think so!
"Just tell me, what's wrong with the clothes I'm wearing?"
Xu Yao asked Wen Yiyi's lackey.
A class reunion is not a red carpet event, so Xu Yao naturally dressed in casual clothes. It would be weird if she really wore a designer dress!
As for food, Xu Yao didn't feel wronged at all.
Gu Jun always bought the freshest strawberries for her favorite ones.
Normally, Gu Jun would cook for Xu Yao early after work, and on weekends, when they had time, they would go to highly-rated restaurants for dinner. Xu Yao had never worried about what to eat. What she worried about was how to maintain her figure with Gu Jun feeding her. After all, the braised pork made by Gu Jun already had some of the flavor of Xu Qinghua's in the past - what else could she do? Not gaining weight was already the result of Xu Yao's hard work in exercising!
In fact, the lackey couldn't find any problem with Xu Yao's clothes.
Xu Yao is beautiful and has good taste. She was the class beauty before and is still the class beauty now. Any clothes look good on Xu Yao.
The lackey stiffened his neck and said, "I'm just giving an example. Teacher Li just said not to show off your wealth. Is it wrong for me to remind Gu Jun to save money?"
Xu Yao sneered, "Don't meddle in other people's business under the banner of Teacher Li. The waiter said it was given by Mr. Shen Er, but you insisted that Gu Jun spent his own money to save face."
“So, who is Mr. Shen Er? Why don’t you tell me clearly?”
Xu Yao glanced at Chen Yan without saying anything.
Humph, if you don’t explain it clearly, then it’s just made up!
The lackey was about to continue to play, but Shen Yan interrupted him: "That's enough, Mr. Shen Er is my second uncle, and this hotel is my second uncle's property."
ah? !
At this moment, no one is more credible than Chen Yan who stepped forward to reveal his identity as "Mr. Shen Er".
It turns out that the person who sent red wine to Gu Jun was the owner of the hotel!
Old questions are answered, and new questions arise.
The hotel owner is Shen Yan's second uncle, why didn't he send wine to Shen Yan but gave red wine to Gu Jun? Could it be that in the eyes of Mr. Shen Er, Gu Jun is more important than his own nephew——
The rhythm of the party was completely disrupted by Shen Zhongjun's act of sending wine.
Gu Jun became the center of everyone's attention.
He could ignore other people's reactions, but he still had to explain clearly to Teacher Li: "Mr. Shen Er has business dealings with Hua Hu. These bottles of wine are not so much a gift to me as a gesture of respect for Hua Hu. I am also taking advantage of the company. I will report to the boss later. Mr. Shen Er has delivered the wine, so let's open it and let everyone taste it."
It turns out it was a male-to-male fight.
Teacher Li was relieved: "The company is great, and you should not underestimate yourself. Your company has so many employees. Does everyone who comes to dinner get a drink? In the final analysis, it is because you have done an excellent job and have a certain status in the company that Mr. Shen Er will remember you."
Teacher Li's words were really well said. He is indeed a teacher who is good at grasping the key points. He pointed out the key points right away.
Everyone thought of how Teacher Li expressed gratitude to Gu Jun when he first arrived, saying that it was Gu Jun who arranged for Huahu to set up the scholarship fund at the school.
At that time, everyone thought that Teacher Li was biased and deliberately exaggerated the role played by Gu Jun in the establishment of the scholarship fund. Now, looking at the two things together, no one would regard Gu Jun as an ordinary programmer anymore.
Huahu is a very popular company at the moment.
If Gu Jun was not an ordinary programmer, what position would he hold?
The Gu family was so poor, and he became what he is today not because of any help from his family, but purely because of his own ability.
The waiter opened the wine according to Gu Jun's request.
Few people in the banquet hall had ever tasted the red wine, which cost tens of thousands of yuan a bottle, so everyone was looking forward to tasting it.
Unconsciously, the focus of the party shifted from Chen Yan to Gu Jun, and many people took the initiative to chat with Gu Jun.
"Senior Gu was admitted to Dongcheng University, right?"
"Senior, don't you have your business card? Can you give me your contact information?"
"Xu Yao, you and Senior Gu got married, but you didn't send out invitations to everyone. Aren't you being really mean?"
"That's right, I'll have to toast you two a few more glasses later..."
The excitement belonged to Gu Jun and Xu Yao. Teacher Li looked at his favorite students with a smile and felt that the atmosphere of today's party was really good!
In a corner where no one was paying attention, Wen Yiyi's lackey's face turned red.
The lackey felt aggrieved: She was clearly helping Wen Yiyi and Shen Yan, how could Shen Yan sabotage her?!
Wen Yiyi felt even more aggrieved than her lackey. She called Chen Yan out on the pretext of going to the bathroom: "What's wrong with you? Why are you trying to make Gu Jun look good? Your second uncle is the same. He knew Gu Jun was having a party here but didn't know you were here?"
Even if you want to give wine, you should give it to Chen Yan!
The so-called identity when you go out is given to yourself. Wen Yiyi cannot understand Shen Zhongjun's way of giving face to outsiders.
Chen Yan stopped Wen Yiyi from complaining: "Second uncle naturally has his own considerations when doing things, there is no need for us, the younger generation, to question it!"
——Wen Yiyi, you idiot!
He'd already said the hotel belonged to his second uncle, Shen Zhongjun, so naturally, it was filled with Shen Zhongjun's people. And yet, Wen Yiyi was still spouting nonsense in the hallway! Didn't she even notice how strange the waiters' looks were?!
