Chapter 212 Appetizer
evening.
A roadside stall.
A pot of crayfish, some grilled skewers, and a few bottles of beer.
Zheng Jian took his mobile phone and browsed the messages in the class group. Seeing his classmates criticizing him, he was so angry that he slammed the table and wished he could find a gun to shoot all these guys.
A bunch of bastards.
I used to flatter him in the group, but now that he is just a little bit unreliable, I actually scold him in the group.
He has no sense of social etiquette at all.
Zheng Jian is also a man who cares about his reputation!
At this time.
Wu Liang is here.
"Brother Jian." Wu Liang sat down and greeted him. He picked up a bottle of beer and drank it first. Then he wiped his mouth and said, "I thought you were really missing."
Zheng Jian's face turned black: "You are mocking me too, right?"
Wu Liang hurriedly shook his head: "I am really worried about you."
"Nothing happened?"
Zheng Jian pointed at his phone and shouted, "This is the biggest thing."
"I was also cheated."
"My uncle was actually fired not long ago."
"What can I do?"
"I'm desperate, too."
"I can't tell the group that my uncle was fired and I can't make any arrangements. I'll definitely be laughed at even more."
He finished his chatter, then seeing Wu Liang was silent, he glared at him and said, "Fuck, you kid don't believe me either, do you?"
"My uncle really is a manager at the Kempinski Hotel!"
"If you don't believe me, I'll call him now and let him tell you in person."
Seeing this, Wu Liang quickly said that he believed it.
Can I make this call?
It would be fine if what Zheng Jian said was false, but what he said was true. He was fired in middle age, which was a complete midlife crisis. But Zheng Jian even called to ask for proof. This is just rubbing salt into the wound.
Wu Liang still has a good grasp of this bit of social etiquette.
The two drank alone, and Zheng Jian sighed: "Brother, I plan to quit the group."
Wu Liang hurriedly shouted, "Stop, Brother Jian."
"What should I do if you quit the group?"
"If you ask me, just pretend you know nothing."
"Anyway, the monitor has already taken care of it. As long as you explain that you're not faking your own death, no one will pursue it."
Zheng Jian's eyes lit up: "Is it really possible?"
Wu Liang nodded and said, "Of course, you can. Just say... just say that you went out to sea for a trip, but were delayed in coming back. There was no signal at sea, so you just got back."
Zheng Jian slammed the table and shouted, "Fuck, you're quite clever, kid."
"How did you come up with that excuse?"
“It’s absolutely amazing.”
Wu Liang's expression froze. He picked up the bottle and took a deep gulp. "It's because of Ye Qing. He..."
Zheng Jian laughed heartily: "Yes, yes, yes, that kid's parents are fishermen, so you thought of letting me use the excuse of going out to sea."
"Why didn't I think of that?"
"When we were in school, I was the first to laugh at Ye Qing for smelling like fish."
He seemed very proud as he spoke.
Wu Liang shook his head: "It's not his parents. He has inherited his father's business and made money..."
Zheng Jian interrupted him again, shouting excitedly, "What? Ye Qing is inheriting his father's business?"
"He's a famous university student and a fisherman?"
"Hahaha, this is hilarious."
"Is this true or false?"
Wu Liang looked unhappy. He was interrupted one after another and muttered, "Really? And..."
Zheng Jian slammed his hand on the table and shouted, "Great! This is really great news."
"If the news that Ye Qing is a fisherman gets out, who would care about my pretending to be dead?"
"Everyone will definitely laugh at him and treat it as a joke."
"Besides you, do other students know this news?"
Wu Liang: “…”
Fuck you!
Could you please let me finish what I'm saying?
He originally intended to remind Zheng Jian to be careful, as Ye Qing would retaliate against him, and it would be even more impossible for him to let Zheng Jian, the culprit, go!
But now, he chooses to remain silent.
Whatever you want.
He said, “I probably don’t know.”
Zheng Jian shouted, "Then don't tell anyone. Let me tell you about it at the class reunion tomorrow. This will definitely be the most fun thing."
"It's a pity that Ye Qing is not coming."
"He should come."
"In front of the class monitor, I'll severely humiliate him and let the classmates laugh at him. It must be very interesting."
When Wu Liang heard this, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother Jian, what is the deep hatred between you and Ye Qing?"
Zheng Jian smiled and said, "No."
"I just couldn't stand him at first."
"I gradually got used to it and started to tease him for fun, and I could also show off."
"Later, I discovered that the squad leader was secretly helping that kid Ye Qing."
Wu Liang was stunned: "How come I didn't know that the monitor helped Ye Qing?"
Zheng Jian snorted coldly: "So this is the strength of our class monitor."
"A woman so clever."
"It's really something that makes people both like and fear it."
"I don't know what kind of man will be able to conquer the squad leader in the future."
Wu Liang curled his lips: "Anyway, it's not the two of us."
At this time.
The owner of the barbecue stall brought over two skewers of grilled pomfret. Zheng Jian pointed and said, "Do you think what we are eating now is what Ye Qing caught? Hahahaha."
Wu Liang couldn't laugh.
Whether it was true or not, he was fired.
But when he saw Zheng Jian's complacent look, he felt inexplicably expectant. He felt that Zheng Jian might end up in a worse situation than him.
Think about it this way.
He felt much better.
Zheng Jian handed him a skewer of grilled pomfret and said, "Come and eat. Don't be polite to me. Since you gave me some advice, I'll treat you to this meal."
Wu Liang smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Jian."
…
The other side.
Ye Qing walked into the lobby. As a distinguished guest of the top suite, the lobby manager greeted him with a smile and welcomed Mr. Ye to the Kempinski Hotel, then took Ye Qing to the elevator.
The elevator opened at the banquet hall on the fifth floor.
Xixi stood at the door and greeted them with a smile: "Welcome Mr. Ye and Mr. Li."
"Mr. Wang was delayed by something important, so he asked me to come here and greet you."
After saying this politely, she paused and winked at Ye Qing: "Actually, there's no need for Mr. Wang to give any instructions. I was so excited when I heard that Mr. Ye was coming."
"Walk."
"Let's go inside and talk."
As she spoke, she took Ye Qing and Kangzai to the box.
Xixi was wearing a cheongsam and was walking in front with her waist twisting violently. She was also wearing high heels with black uppers and red soles.
He recently watched short videos and saw a lot of mature women, and the comments all said something about how red they were and how powerful they were.
For men, these shoes increase attack speed.
Ye Qing agreed.
I have to say that Xixi is the most feminine woman he has ever met.
Kangzi followed behind, wanting to look but not daring to. His eyes flickered and he turned his head to avoid looking at Xixi.
Walk into the private room.
Compared to the rooftop restaurant, this place is more private. If there are some things that are not convenient to say, you don’t have to worry about being overheard by someone with ulterior motives.
Walk into the private room.
The sofas, tables and chairs, wall murals and handmade carpets all show luxury.
The huge floor-to-ceiling windows allow you to have an unobstructed view of the hustle and bustle of traffic outside. It feels quite extraordinary to dine in such a place.
Kangzi exclaimed, "It's just like in TV and movies. There really is such a luxurious place. Rich people really know how to enjoy themselves."
If it weren't for Ye Qing, he would probably never have come to such a place to eat in his life.
One is that I don’t know.
Second, even if I knew, I would not choose to eat here.
After a while, Wang Ye came.
After greeting Ye Qing, he looked at Xixi, and Xixi asked the waiter to serve the dishes.
After giving the instructions, Xixi walked back and sat down next to Ye Qing leisurely.
Not long.
The seafood feast is served.
King crab, red-haired crab, various crabs, Australian lobster, small blue dragon, various shrimps, big and small, braised sea cucumber, black abalone, clams, etc.
Even though Ye Qing and Kangzai, the two fishermen's sons, had seen many seafoods, they were stunned at this moment. A large part of the seafood on the table was not found in the South China Sea.
Fresh, air-shipped, and cooked in a unique way.
From the exquisite presentation, it can be seen that every dish on the table is of great value.
Ye Qing couldn't help but say, "Brother Ye, this is too much."
Wang Ye smiled and said, "It's not a big portion. We're eating the essence. Don't worry, you won't feel full after eating it."
"The real main course, I'll take you there after you finish this."
Ye Qing asked, "You're not in the hotel, but going out?"
Wang Ye nodded: "Of course, my hotel is very formal, and I'm taking you to a less formal place."
Ye Qing: "Uh..."
Is this something that can be said?
Can he listen?
Kangzi was so excited: "Then I'll eat a sea cucumber first."
Ye Qing said: "Then I won't be polite."
He and Kangzi thought this meal was too luxurious, and perhaps it was nothing to Wang Ye.
Wang Ye laughed heartily: "Brother Ye, please don't be polite to me."
Xixi helped Ye Qing process some ingredients. Occasionally, when Ye Qing was too busy to do anything, Xixi would bring the food to Ye Qing's mouth. This scene made Kangzi very envious.
After eating, it was already ten o'clock in the evening. Outside, there were bright lights and wine, and the real nightlife had just begun.
Xixi drove, and Wang Ye, Ye Qing and Kangzai, a group of four, left the hotel. The car blended into the traffic flow and arrived at the door of a luxurious shopping mall half an hour later.
