Chapter 520: Big Shot?
Xiao Ran's grandfather was Xiao Xiuyong, who used to be the director of the Yanjing Winery. He worked diligently all his life, and his only hobby was to have a few drinks.
In addition to the basic information, Xiao Ran also told Tang Shuo some other things about the other party.
However, what puzzled Tang Shuo was that both Xiao Ran and Lu Wanqi had said that his grandfather had a very generous personality. How could it be like this?
Looking at the stern old man in front of him, Tang Shuo didn't know how to speak for a moment, and could only put the scalding tea to his lips to hide his embarrassment.
"Go ahead."
Xiao Xiuyong waved his hand and asked directly: "How much did Xiao Ran spend to invite you here?"
“…”
This was discovered?
Tang Shuo panicked and glanced quickly at Xiao Ran's face.
Didn’t you say that there would definitely be no mistakes?
I haven't said anything yet, but everyone has seen through it.
What made Tang Shuo even more depressed was that it would have been better if he had received money, but the key point was that he did not receive a penny in compensation, it was all just a guest appearance.
Xiao Ran obviously hadn't anticipated this situation. He shook his head slightly at Tang Shuo and immediately said, "Grandpa, what are you talking about?"
"Don't think I'm confused just because I'm old. Can't I see this?"
Xiao Xiuyong snorted coldly, "I just urged you on the phone last night, and you brought me a boyfriend today. There are a lot of reports about this in the newspapers. Can't you rent a man for money these days?"
“…”
Tang Shuo really wanted to say that although he had thought about selling himself, he had never put it into action.
"grandfather!"
Xiao Ran immediately said, "Why would I spend money to deal with you? Tang Shuo is really my boyfriend."
As if to prove his words, Xiao Ran deliberately sat next to Tang Shuo and held Tang Shuo's arm intimately.
A hint of doubt flashed in Xiao Xiuyong's eyes, and he said, "Really?"
"Of course it's true. If you don't believe me, ask Tang Shuo."
Xiao Ran answered, and seeing that Tang Shuo didn't respond, he reached out and twisted the other's waist inconspicuously.
"Um!"
Tang Shuo grinned and said hurriedly, "Of course it's true."
Although this was a white lie, he still felt a little reluctant to let Tang Shuo deceive the other party.
It’s not that his position is not firm, but that the enemy’s methods are too vicious.
Xiao Xiuyong's expression finally eased a little, and he said to Xiao Ran, "Why haven't I heard you mention this before?"
"I'm a big star now, how could I expose something like this?" Xiao Ran explained, "We've known each other for almost a year."
"Star, you're really going to piss your dad off to death!"
Xiao Xiuyong shook his head and continued, "It's been a year, which is not a short time. When are you planning to get married?"
“…”
Tang Shuo was confused by Xiao Xiuyong's series of questions. They hadn't talked about anything yet, so why were they talking about marriage?
From this perspective, Xiao Xiuyong is really generous.
However, Tang Shuo's mind was not on this matter. Xiao Xiuyong's words just now reminded him that after so long, he still didn't know what Xiao Ran's father did.
Moreover, the other party's home is obviously in Yanjing, so why would he live with Lu Wanqi? I have never heard him mention his family.
"Grandpa, why don't you interrogate him first?" Xiao Ran let go of Tang Shuo and walked over to Xiao Xiuyong, saying, "Aren't you afraid your granddaughter might be putting her trust in the wrong person?"
Xiao Xiuyong smiled and said, "I'm thankful that someone wants you. Why would I worry about the wrong person?"
Tang Shuo glanced at Xiao Ran's face and nodded in agreement.
There was nothing wrong with Xiao Ran's appearance, but the key was his violent temper. If he wasn't a broad-minded person like him, I'm afraid no one would be able to bear it.
strangeness!
Why would I use myself as a metaphor?
Tang Shuo shuddered unconsciously and quickly threw the thought out of his mind.
"Grandpa, is your granddaughter really that bad?" Xiao Ran said angrily, "If you continue like this, I won't come to see you again."
Xiao Xiuyong smiled and patted Xiao Ran on the head, then turned to Tang Shuo and asked, "What kind of work are you doing now?"
Although he said that he didn't care, Xiao Ran was the other party's granddaughter after all. How could he not consider Tang Shuo's character?
Then, Tang Shuo repeated the wording that he had discussed with Xiao Ran in advance.
By the time they finished their conversation, nearly two hours had passed. Seeing that Xiao Xiuyong seemed very satisfied with Tang Shuo, Xiao Ran added in his ear, "Tang Shuo has a good alcohol tolerance."
"Yeah?"
Xiao Xiuyong glanced at Tang Shuo in surprise, nodded, and said, "Then let's have a couple more drinks tonight."
The quality of a drink reflects the quality of a person.
Xiao Xiuyong, who has been obsessed with wine for most of his life, is even more convinced of this.
After two glasses of wine in the evening, Tang Shuo's character will become clear.
Of course, Xiao Xiuyong was not aware of Tang Shuo's almost supernatural physique, otherwise he would have questioned this belief.
"You chat with Tang Shuo first." Xiao Xiuyong stood up and said to Xiao Ran, "Your father will be over tonight. I'll prepare some food in advance."
"I'll go and help." Tang Shuo said when he saw this.
Even as he said this, he didn't move an inch. He was just being polite. It didn't make sense to cook for someone on their first visit.
"You can cook?" Xiao Xiuyong nodded and said, "Okay, come and help me."
“…”
Tang Shuo raised his eyebrows, then looked towards Xiao Ran for help.
It wasn't that he didn't want to cook, but the problem was that they had to talk when they were in the kitchen, right? If they accidentally brought up something they hadn't mentioned beforehand, wouldn't that ruin all their efforts?
Xiao Ran didn't notice Tang Shuo's gaze, and said to Xiao Xiuyong in surprise, "My father will come?"
"yes."
Xiao Xiuyong replied: "After all, you are his only daughter. Even if he is busy, he has to pay attention to this matter, right?"
After answering Xiao Ran, Xiao Xiuyong urged Tang Shuo. "Why are you still sitting here? Come with me."
Tang Shuo reluctantly stood up and followed, but Xiao Ran grabbed his sleeve. "Something happened. My father will be here tonight."
"Just come, what's so strange about that?" Tang Shuo asked doubtfully.
Xiao Ran shook his head and said in a panic: "No, you can't meet."
"Why?" Tang Shuo asked puzzledly.
It is a normal thing for a son to come to his father's house for dinner no matter where it is. Xiao Ran's strange behavior aroused Tang Shuo's strong curiosity.
Xiao Ran thought about it for a while, and seemed ready to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he shook his head and said, "Forget it, it's too late now. You will follow my orders tonight."
Tang Shuo was filled with suspicion after hearing Xiao Ran's rant. He hesitated and said, "How about I just leave with the excuse that I have something to do?"
"No!" Xiao Ran immediately rejected it, as if he had made up his mind. He said, "You must help me with this matter tonight."
He wouldn't let me leave, but he was obviously worried about me staying.
Tang Shuo became even more curious about the identity of Xiao Ran's father. Could he be some important figure?
"What does your father do?"
"I work in the government." Xiao Ran replied.
"Government?" Tang Shuo narrowed his eyes and said hurriedly, "I think I'd better leave early."
"no."
Xiao Ran shook his head and said, "If you leave, my night will be over. You must stay and help me play this scene well. At worst, if you and Lu Wanqi quarrel in the future, I will side with you."
“…”
As if he noticed what Tang Shuo was worried about, Xiao Ran added: "My father is just a small leader in a department, but the department is more important, you don't have to worry too much." Tu Nong Yi Xue.
After hearing Xiao Ran's words, Tang Shuo felt a little relieved.
If something went wrong at night, he would just say that he was hired by Xiao Ran and then leave without caring about Xiao Ran's life or death.
However, if Tang Shuo knew in advance that the department Xiao Ran was referring to was the central government, he would definitely regret his decision.
"Tang Shuo!"
Xiao Xiuyong, who had already arrived in the kitchen, urged, "Why haven't you come yet?"
"Coming right up."
Tang Shuo answered, then winked at Xiao Ran and hurried into the kitchen.
