In the evening of the next day, Tang Xiaobao finally found time to visit Wei Donglai's home. According to local customs, the entire first month of the lunar year is considered the Spring Festival, which can also be regarded as a way to pay New Year's greetings.
Wei Donglai's family was the first people Tang Xiaobao met, and the two families have always had a close relationship.
Tang Xiaobao saved Wei Bing's wife's life, otherwise his son might not have had the chance to be born safely. The Wei family has always remembered this great favor.
Later, Wei Bing's son recognized Tang Xiaobao as his godfather, and their relationship naturally took a step further.
Thinking back to the beginning, Wei Donglai's family took good care of Tang Xiaobao. Even later, whenever Tang Xiaobao had any problems, the Wei family would lend a helping hand without hesitation.
But later, Tang Xiaobao's value and status rose rapidly. He was busy traveling all year round and rarely had the opportunity to visit the Wei family.
After receiving a call from Tang Xiaobao in the morning, Wei Bing shared the good news with his family early on.
The Wei family dared not neglect their guest Tang Xiaobao.
Early in the morning, Wei Bing brought his wife and children back to Wei Donglai's home.
The family prepared for a long time and prepared a sumptuous family dinner to entertain Tang Xiaobao.
What, why not go to the big hotel?
Please, among those who invite guests to a big hotel, how many are real friends? People like Wei Donglai generally won't invite people to dinner at his home. After all, he is a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and Deputy Mayor, and the Director of the Public Security Bureau. His status in the officialdom is not low. How could he invite you to his home for dinner if you are not one of his own?
Tang Xiaobao also brought some gifts and gave a big red envelope to his godson.
During the meal, the atmosphere was warm and lively, and everyone enjoyed their meal very much.
Wei Donglai and his wife asked about Tang Xiaobao's recent situation. After dinner, Wei Donglai even played two games of chess with Tang Xiaobao.
Last year, Tang Xiaobao occasionally read a few Go books in a bookstore. The level of the books was also very high, but he was naturally embarrassed to win. He was clearly winning two games, but in the end he lost without a sound.
Perhaps Wei Dong noticed it and stopped playing after two games.
After sitting for a while, Tang Xiaobao asked to leave.
Wei Bing sent him out, and when they got downstairs, he forced Tang Xiaobao to go to the bar for a drink.
Tang Xiaobao smiled and said, "Didn't we drink tonight?"
"Three of us drank a bottle of wine, which is not considered drinking at all. It just so happens that we two brothers haven't eaten together for a long time. We have to have a few drinks tonight. Let's go. I know a newly opened bar with a nice environment. I heard that it was opened by a businessman from outside the area. Let's go and check it out. It's quiet and there's no need to worry about being disturbed."
Without saying anything, Wei Bing got into Tang Xiaobao's car.
Tang Xiaobao was helpless and smiled, "Then you should also say hello to your sister-in-law, right?"
"No, she can drive back by herself."
Wei Bing said carelessly.
The bar he mentioned is located on Tongfo Road behind Xihua Street. As for the environment, it is indeed very quiet and not noisy. There are high-end residential areas nearby, but because it is a newly opened property, there is not much traffic nearby.
Sihai Bar.
The two of them found a booth by the window and sat down. Wei Bing ordered two more bottles of foreign wine and a few plates of snacks.
Pour the wine.
Wei Bing clinked his glasses with Tang Xiaobao, and after taking a sip, he complained, "Your sister-in-law is really strict with me now. It's only because you came tonight that I wouldn't be allowed to drink otherwise."
"Ah, not really. I think my sister-in-law never cared about drinking before." Tang Xiaobao said with a smile.
Wei Bing sighed, "There's nothing I can do. My blood pressure has been a little high lately, and the doctor told me to drink less."
"How about I write you a prescription later?"
"Great! I forgot you're a great doctor." Wei Bing's eyes lit up, and he said with some envy, "You're so envious of me. You're a great doctor, yet you can sing and act. You're a billionaire, yet you don't care about your company at all. You're just a hands-off boss. Now I don't even know what you do. Unlike me, I've been stuck in the Public Security Bureau my whole life and am still only at the deputy division level."
Tang Xiaobao smiled and said, "Just be content. You're only a few years old, and you're already at the deputy division level. That's pretty good. However, I think the old man is almost retiring. Why didn't he help you before he left? Why are you still in the criminal police team?"
Wei Bing drank again.
He smiled and said, "Is that fast? I still think it's too slow. I'm already in my thirties, but I'll tell you, I should be promoted in the second half of the year."
"What do you mean? You want to be the director? The old man hasn't retired yet."
"What are you talking about? My dad is the Public Security Bureau Chief. What will people say if I become the Chief? It's impossible. I'm going to be promoted to the rank of Division Chief." Wei Bing blinked. "Then, I'll probably be transferred to the county below to become the Deputy County Chief and Public Security Bureau Chief."
"So sure?"
"Of course. Do you really think there's no one in my province?" Wei Bing chuckled. "Who in the officialdom these days doesn't have people above them? However, I'm planning to go to your Tongjiang County."
Tang Xiaobao nodded and raised his glass. "That's good news. We should have a drink. It will be much more convenient for you to go to Tongjiang County. I have many tourist projects there. I will feel more at ease if you can help me."
"I think so too. I can go to your house to visit you two elders when I have time."
Tang Xiaobao was a little touched and took the initiative to pour wine for Wei Bing.
The two chatted for a while, and Wei Bing suddenly whispered, "Brother, we are not strangers. A few days ago, you asked me to help you find a car. What's going on?"
Tang Xiaobao was a little embarrassed.
"Okay, I didn't say anything."
The Wei soldiers knew what was going on.
