evening.
Kamikaze Hotel.
The private room is called "Anzhi Tinglan".
The three round tables were completely full!
The officers from Hongcheng Squadron and the branch station sat at round tables on both sides.
As the main force in investigating this case, the Third Squad of the Major Crimes Unit naturally took the lead and sat in the middle VIP box. Shang Wanting and Director Yang sat in the main seats, with Captain Zhao and Shang Nana on either side, followed by Liu Keming and Guan Feng, and then the seven members of the Third Squad.
After Shang Wanting and the others were all seated, she stood up, raised her glass, and said to everyone, "Thank you all for your help this time. You saved my daughter. If it weren't for this, I really don't know what I would have done."
As she spoke, her eyes welled up with tears.
Seeing this, Director Yang also stood up and added to Shang Wanting's lingering words: "This case was solved in less than eight hours, thanks to everyone's hard work! Chairman Shang is very grateful to everyone. Well then, let's not talk about who toasts whom, let's all drink to that!"
Everyone stood up and drank the wine in their glasses in one gulp.
Aside from a few people who needed to be on duty, everyone else felt that the alcohol was special the moment it went down their throats, and couldn't help but look at the liquid in the ordinary glass bottle.
Guan Feng noticed Gao Dacheng's gaze and said with a smile, "Dacheng, are you surprised? What kind of wine is this?"
Gao Dacheng smacked his lips and said, "Why do I feel like I've never drunk this before? It's not an ordinary bar."
Guan Feng explained, "This is Chairman Shang's treasured collection! You can't buy it anywhere else, no matter how much money you have. Before we came, Chairman Shang said that everyone should drink as much as they want and have as much fun as possible. However, those on duty will be exempt from duty. Considering the special nature of this wine, those on duty will be allowed to take a small cup back with them. This is a perk that Chairman Shang is giving us."
Everyone laughed upon hearing this.
Director Yang chuckled and said, "Xiao Guan, with this arrangement, Chairman Shang will probably have some objections!"
Shang Wanting shook her head and said, "No objection! Everyone here is my savior. It's a good thing that they like to drink. These wines were purchased a few years ago when I went on a business trip to Yunnan and Guizhou. They've been kept for entertaining guests ever since. Although they're not expensive, they taste really good. I'll have my secretary seal some up later, and each of the colleagues on duty can take a cup back to taste."
Several staff members on duty showed excited expressions.
Chairman Shang's consideration is too thorough.
Shang Wanting then stood up again to toast everyone.
After three drinks, Shang Wanting's face became rosy, and the atmosphere in the room was completely turned up. Everyone clinked glasses and the whole private room was bustling with activity.
During this private drinking session, Zheng Yuandong seized the opportunity to have two drinks with Director Yang and two more with Zhao Dong. He even muttered something while drinking with Zhao Dong.
Judging from his triumphant state upon his return, the matter was clearly almost settled.
However, Guan Feng noticed something extra: Huang Lili kept staring at him throughout the meal. He couldn't help but call her over and ask, knowing the answer already, "Lili, why aren't you eating properly? Why are you staring at me?"
Feeling guilty, Huang Lili said, "N-nothing?"
Guan Feng said, "Lily, have you forgotten how your captain got the provincial expert title?"
Huang Lili's face flushed red, and she said, "Captain, I didn't mean to, it was my sister who made me do it."
Guan Feng asked, "What did your sister say?"
Huang Lili said, "She told me to watch over you and not let you drink too much. She said if you drank too much, I would have to take you home so you wouldn't be homeless."
Guan Feng said, "Is there nothing else?"
Huang Lili, who had just had three drinks, said somewhat lightly, "Oh, and she even asked me if that Shang Nana was pretty."
Guan Feng: "..."
If I hesitate even for a moment, I will be letting down the impression I have of you.
Guan Feng asked, "What was your reply at the time?"
Huang Lili said, "I knew it was beautiful. When she's with her mother, they don't look like mother and daughter, but more like sisters. It's the first time I've ever seen such beautiful sisters!"
Guan Feng: "???"
......
I slept soundly through the night.
Guan Feng woke up from his sleep.
He rubbed his head, feeling quite clear-headed, and couldn't help but admire the quality of the wine from last night; a little bit didn't give him a headache.
Last night he originally intended to keep his intake to a minimum, just a little, but Shang Wanting brought Shang Nana to toast him, so he had no choice but to accompany them.
Later, Director Yang couldn't hold his liquor and wanted to take care of everyone himself. In addition, Zhao Dong was getting old and couldn't drink as much as before, so he wanted to represent him fully. Guan Feng had no choice but to take off his shirt and join in.
After Shang Wanting and He finished drinking, they were immediately surrounded and attacked by three squads of men.
When Zhao Dong saw this scene, he felt his scalp tingle. Fortunately, Guan Feng remained calm and composed, and drank two jin instead of the promised two liang. This made Zhao Dong discover Guan Feng's new talent.
Yes, you can drink it!
He didn't care about himself at the time and said to Director Yang with a smile, "Director Yang, I didn't realize before that Xiao Guan could drink so much. It seems that next time there is such an occasion, I will have to bring him along."
Director Yang smiled and looked at Guan Feng, saying, "I'll be in charge of trade and economics next, which will involve a lot of drinking. I just discovered a talent before I leave, which is perfect! Zhao Dong, let me make this clear to you: Guan will stay in the criminal investigation team, but I'll be taking him with me to some important occasions."
Zhao Dong smiled and said, "Accompanying Director Yang to social events will also help Xiao Guan's growth, so I would definitely give it my full support."
Director Yang said, "Then you can't refuse to release them."
Zhao Dong smiled and said okay.
Guan Feng rubbed his head as he thought of these images, got up, washed up quickly, and went to the city bureau's canteen. Just as he was eating, Zheng Yuandong sat down with his tray.
Guan Feng asked, "Old Zheng, why haven't you gone back yet?"
Zheng Yuandong said, "I drank too much last night and didn't go back. Also, Captain Zhao told me to go see him today so he can have a heart-to-heart talk with me."
Guan Feng laughed and said, "Then congratulations to Team Leader Zheng in advance."
Zheng Yuandong said, "We haven't counted yet! But Guan Feng, we still need you to put in a good word for us. The branch captain respects your words. If he is transferred here, he will be working under your leadership in the Major Crimes Team."
