Chapter 353 Earthquake. Convergence 1
Xia Yaoyin's men quickly brought a soft leather sofa, and she sat down slowly.
Da Piaoliang followed Li Qing's instructions and served her a bowl of mushroom soup and placed it on the table.
Huang Jue added, "Can the chef please take the mushroom soup away?"
Da Piaoliang frowned, "Isn't that what you want to drink?"
Huang Jue gave a smile that he thought was elegant, "Sorry, Mr. Xia has to use his own bowl."
Her beautiful eyelids were almost turned up to the sky.
Li Qing coughed twice and tried hard to hold back his laughter. "Ahem... Aunt Han, take the fish soup down and share it with everyone, then go and take a rest. If anyone wants to drink mushroom soup, let them serve themselves."
I am saying this to my subordinates and also to Huang Jue. Don't think that we want to serve you.
Da Piaoliang hummed and asked Quan Duan and Da Bao to serve the fish pot. She didn't eat anything herself, but filled a bowl of mushroom soup and took the vegetable cake to hide away.
Xia Yaoyin tucked her long hair behind her ears and said with a faint smile, "Sorry, my stomach is not very good, so I use my own things."
"I understand. I understand."
Li Qing suddenly felt a little regretful about accepting the fish soup. Did he offend a rich and beautiful girl?
What he didn't expect was that this woman was so talkative. She could pick up any topic and flatter herself.
When Li Qing mentioned the underworld, she said that she used to be involved in both the black and white worlds; when Li Qing mentioned starting her own business, she said that when the industry was at its largest, it had already started international trade, and if it hadn't been for natural disasters, the business would have been expanded to Iceland. When Li Qing mentioned the government, she said that she knew the top leaders of the central government, and that their connections were all very powerful.
Every expression and every word she utters reveals how excellent and superior she is. But if you praise her, she can still be humble to the dust.
Li Qing seriously suspected that the shipping tycoon had lost his mind. What kind of person was this? He patiently chatted with her for nearly an hour, and in the end, he spent most of the time listening to her bragging about the past.
He kept winking at Koi, but Koi and the others just laughed secretly and no one responded.
Fortunately, Chu An called and he picked up the phone as if he had seen a savior. He trembled and hurriedly answered the phone, "Hello, Xiao An, this is such an important matter. Wait for me, don't hang up yet."
He smiled and looked at Xia Yaoyin, "I'm sorry, Mr. Xia, my sister has something urgent to ask me."
Xia Yaoyin was so happy when she heard it that she didn't care. "Well, you answer it. You answer it. We should go back too. We can talk again when we have time."
She stood up to say goodbye, and Huang Jue followed closely. When they returned to their own camp, Huang Jue hurriedly poured her some water for her to wash her hands.
"Oh, I have to change my habit of being too clean. Look, they use river water to cook wild vegetables. It's so pitiful."
Huang Jue smiled flatteringly and said, "You are different from them. They used to be at the bottom of society and are used to it."
Xia Yaoyin shook her head. "The world is not like it used to be. When I was waiting to be transferred to the hospital that day. Ahem... Although I was in the front of the line because of my status. But I was also thinking that if I could leave alive, I must experience the feeling of being friends with ordinary people."
She looked at Li Qing, who was squatting on a rock and making a phone call, and said sympathetically, "Their happiness is so pure that they can smile even when eating wild vegetables. My happiness was bought with money and power, and it's not real at all."
Li Qing suddenly shivered. What was going on? Why did he feel a chill on his back in 50-degree weather?
He jumped off the rock and found a sheltered place to continue his phone call, explaining what he had just explained to Chu An.
"I've never seen anyone with such a strong sense of superiority. Who gives her the confidence?"
Chu An had never met such a person before, and it was a bit hard for him to imagine what he was like. "Don't worry about her, I'm glad you're all right. We'll be at the coordinates in another three hours."
Gu Ye reminded, "It will take less than three hours, two hours and 40 minutes to get there."
Li Qing looked at the time. It was already three o'clock in the afternoon. It was great that he could arrive before dark. "Be careful. See you later."
After hanging up the phone, he angrily looked for Jinli and He Xun and asked, "Why don't you guys pay attention to me?"
Everyone agreed that he was having a great time chatting with the beautiful woman and they couldn't bear to disturb him.
"Pah, I'll punish each of you by handing over a cigarette."
"No, brother. That woman keeps touching her hair, maybe she is interested in you." He Xun analyzed.
"Bullshit, her eyes have grown to the top of her head, how can she see us?" Li Qing pulled out a new tent from the van and handed it to his men, "Xiao An and the others will be here in two hours, let's set up the tent in advance so they can rest when they arrive."
"Sister An is coming over?" He Xun excitedly went over to help.
He was indeed not around every time Li Qing and Chu An talked on the phone, and only Jinli and Dabao knew about it.
"Well, she's going to West Bay with us."
Jinli and Quanduan also came to help, and the men quickly set up the tent.
Jinli asked, "Brother Qing, do you know Xia Yaoyin's background? I always feel that this woman is not simple."
Li Qing shook his head. "I heard that she runs a club before, but it doesn't sound like that from what she said today. But what is certain is that this woman has deep roots in the C City base. Did you notice that their cars are modified military vehicles with water tanks? Many of her subordinates look like mercenaries."
Jinli pulled Li Qing into the newly-set-up tent and whispered, "Brother Qing, I think Xia Yaoyin is more dangerous than Li Fu and the others. You should not get too close to her in the future."
Li Qing, "If she was really capable, she wouldn't have come to us today to win us over. This kind of person is most likely just an empty shell, deliberately showing off to us."
Koi gave him a thumbs up, "Then let's be careful too."
Li Qing nodded, "The main thing is to be careful of the people behind her."
He lifted a corner of the door curtain and looked towards Xia Yaoyin's tent thoughtfully.
He and Yue Qianshan had fought tooth and nail in front of the shipping king, but they could barely get 30%. However, this woman not only joined easily on the last day, but also got the same share as Yue Qianshan. Even if she was an empty shell, it was a hard tortoise shell.
Soon it was dinner time. Li Qing had just finished talking to Chu An on the phone, and he would arrive in half an hour. He wanted to wait for Chu An to arrive before eating together, so he didn't rush to let Da Piaoliang cook.
In the afternoon, Da Piaoliang took He Xun and Quan Duan to dig bamboo shoots and mushrooms. They dug a large basket in two hours and were picking and washing them by the river.
One advantage of this place is that there is a small river nearby, but the water level has receded a lot and it is about to turn into a stream.
The other two tents also started cooking. This time, Yue Qianshan and his friends cooked fish, and Xia Yaoyin started to cook beef. The two families still put their best efforts into the competition.
In the afternoon, Xia Yaoyin changed into a new set of clothes after leaving Li Qing's place. Lucy was not to be outdone and changed into a new set within half an hour.
There were people serving both of them. One wanted to listen to music, while the other wanted to read a book. I don't know what they were trying to do.
