Chapter 700: The Great Tang Dynasty. Negotiation
Jinxiu Shengtang is the best hotel in the outer city. It was funded by the government and private individuals, with the private sector accounting for the majority of the funding. However, it belongs to the Cui family, which is the property of the president of the Chamber of Commerce.
You must be a member to eat here, and there are many rules to join.
Chu An and the other two had invitation codes, and they showed them to the front desk and were quickly let in. This time, only Lao Chu and Gu Ye came with them, and the identities of the others were too sensitive and not suitable.
When they arrived, Sun Zhanxing had not come yet, and there was no food or water on the table, which clearly showed that he looked down on them.
"Please ring the bell if you need anything," the waiter said without any emotion and left.
After more than two years since the end of the world, everyone's psychological endurance has become stronger. As long as no one deliberately makes things difficult, expressions don't matter.
The meeting time was scheduled for ten o'clock, but it was not until half past ten that Sun Zhanxing's assistant pushed the door open and apologized to Chu An and the others, saying that their President Sun was too busy and had encountered some problems when leaving the city, and it would probably take another half an hour for him to arrive.
In fact, Sun Zhanxing had already arrived and had been waiting in another room.
He wanted to see how long these three people could wait. If they left as soon as he was late, the initiative would be on the other side. If they continued to wait after being humiliated like this, it would prove that they had something to ask of him or wanted benefits from the Sun family, then the initiative would be on his side.
He waited until the expected time in his mind, and when he felt that he could control Chu An, he sent his assistant out to smooth things over.
Chu An said it didn’t matter and he could understand.
After the assistant left, Lao Chu muttered quietly, "The Sun family is really heartless and cold-hearted. They are willing to use their own son's life to test him."
Gu Ye, "They think that no one dares to kill the Sun family in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Those who are enemies of the Sun family are just people who want benefits."
Chu An, "Maybe they sent someone to rescue them."
Lao Chu was surprised, "Have you hidden the person?"
Chu An, "I didn't hide it. His son is just receiving treatment. Even if the Public Security Bureau is looking for someone, they can contact him. I didn't confiscate his phone."
But it is not certain whether Sun Zhe would dare to say that he felt threatened.
Another twenty minutes passed, Gu Ye's face became more and more uglier, Lao Chu felt a little sleepy, and Chu An fell asleep directly on Gu Ye's legs.
Suddenly, the door of the room was slowly opened, and Sun Zhanxing came in, surrounded by a man with a moustache and his assistants.
Old Chu looked up in a daze, but Chu An didn't get up at all. Only Gu Ye stared at him for the longest time with a scorpion-like gaze.
"Haha... sorry to keep you waiting." The man with a moustache pulled out a chair for Sun Zhanxing, then spoke politely to the three people opposite him.
Sun Zhanxing also looked at Gu Ye at first sight. He really looked like her mother, especially his almond-shaped eyes, which were exactly the same.
He remembered that his second sister was the most beautiful child in the family. She inherited all the good qualities of her parents and was loved by everyone in the family. Therefore, she was a little spoiled and had a worse temper than him and his third sister.
She especially likes dressing up, and she spent all the pocket money her father gave her on beautiful clothes and bags.
When she was in college, the Sun family encountered a financial crisis and the business plummeted. But even so, her father never cared more about anyone than her second sister. At that time, he felt that the old man was partial to her and was very dissatisfied.
But it's okay. The second sister's spoiled character brought her bitter consequences. For the sake of love, she married a poor boy despite the opposition of her whole family. A poor boy with ulterior motives, which made the old man completely disappointed in her.
Sun Zhanxing's thoughts were racing because of Gu Ye's face. When he came to his senses, he found that no one on the other side had spoken. The man with the mustache had said everything he needed to say, and the room fell into silence.
"Ahem...um, where is our little master now?" the man with a mustache continued to ask.
Gu Ye had a very weak impression of his uncle. As his mother got older, she missed home more and more. She once brought him back to Sun's house secretly, but the old man didn't see him. His uncle was not there at the time either. He had only seen him in photos.
The uncle in the photo is handsome and unrestrained, but gives people the overall feeling of being sharp and unapproachable. After so many years, his sharpness has turned into sour and mean. This is what it means that appearance reflects the heart.
Still no one spoke on the other side.
"Aren't you here to talk?" The man with the mustache said angrily.
Gu Ye didn't know what to say. Lao Chu rubbed his eyes and looked up again. Oh, he really looks a bit like Gu Ye, but his face is so ugly.
"Gu Ye, right?" Sun Zhanxing spoke first, "Your mother is Sun Meihui, right?"
Gu Ye was speechless. Old Chu slapped his face twice and forced himself to cheer up. After all, he was the elder and he couldn't let the younger ones get bullied just because he was sleepy.
"My dear brother, are you the brother of the Sun family's sister?"
Sun Zhanxing looked at Lao Chu and narrowed his eyes. Not knowing what he was up to, he replied truthfully, "Yes."
The main thing is that there is no need to hide it, everyone here should know it.
"Oh, then you don't even know what's going on with your own nephew, and you still have the nerve to ask?"
Sun Zhanxing's face suddenly turned red, "......"
The man with the two beards hurriedly said in a stern voice: "Shut up, who do you think you are? What qualifications do you have to manage the affairs of the Sun family?"
Lao Chu was calm and said, "Who am I? I am Gu Ye's father-in-law. Gu Ye is my son-in-law and half my son. What's wrong? My son-in-law and son are being asked this question, and I can't say a few words. Who do you think you are? Do you have the right to meddle in our family affairs?"
The man with the mustache choked.
"Okay, stop arguing." Sun Zhanxing suppressed his anger. "Since you have made the relationship clear, then just say it. What do you want by kidnapping Zhe'er? If it's points, I will give it to the best of my ability. After all, Gu Ye is also my nephew. If it's the Sun family's assets, then I can't help you. The Sun family's assets are still in the hands of the old man. Everyone in Shengtang knows this."
Old Chu sneered, "Boss Sun, you really portray yourself as a loser to the fullest."
"What did you say?" Sun Zhanxing couldn't hold it anymore and slammed the table and stood up.
Old Chu spread his hands, "You said it, you are nothing in the Sun family, why are you still angry?"
Sun Zhanxing's face had turned green and his chest was heaving violently.
He was suppressed by his second brother in the Sun family, but that was because of the old man. Could it be that he couldn't get rid of being suppressed in the outer city? After all, he was the eldest son of the Sun family.
Sun Zhanxing, "Pay attention to your attitude."
Lao Chu, "I will take the same attitude as you do."
Sun Zhanxing clenched his back teeth and glanced at Gu Ye. He was just as annoying as his mother. He should have sent assassins to kill them as soon as they entered the city instead of waiting a day before making up his mind to get rid of them.
"Gu Ye, your mother trusted the wrong person. It seems that you have inherited her love brain and found such a sarcastic and mean father-in-law."
