"No need to look, Boss Lu, I just want this jade pendant." Tang Xiaobao smiled and said, "I appreciate your kindness, but I have to pay for this jade pendant. Come on, swipe your card!"
Lu Guohua glared at him, and the cashier didn't dare to come over.
"Hey, I can tell that Brother Tang is a truly great person. He didn't want this jade lion worth a million, but insisted on having such a shabby jade pendant. No wonder he saved my son's life last time and left quietly. I have to admit it!"
Lu Guohua raised his thumb and said generously, "Okay, I'll give you this jade pendant for free. If you need anything in the future, come to me and I'll give you a 50% discount, just the cost price!"
Tang Xiaobao was shocked. Worth over a million?
Damn, what did I give up?
He looked at the jade lion with his heart bleeding, but at this point, he could only pretend to be calm. He coughed and calmed himself down.
"Since Boss Lu is so thoughtful, okay, I'll accept the jade pendant. Thank you!"
Lu Guohua wanted to make friends with Tang Xiaobao and wanted to invite him to dinner, but Tang Xiaobao left with an excuse.
Tang Xiaobao's heart was bleeding. Out of sight, out of mind. It would be fine if he didn't see the jade lion, but it would make him sad if he saw it!
The VIP box of Desheng Building is usually not open to the public. It is said that it is where the boss entertains guests.
But tonight, the box is open to the public.
The boss made arrangements personally, came in to greet us, and then left.
There were several plates of cold dishes on the table. The hot dishes had not been served yet, but the wine had already been served. Luo Wenbao and his daughter were sitting at the top of the table.
Sitting on Luo Wenbao's left was Luo Ya, and on his right sat a young man in his twenties. The man had an extraordinary temperament, was calm and handsome, always had a faint smile on his face, and was well-educated.
"Sinan, it's rare that you are so thoughtful. Today is Yaya's 18th birthday. You have to accompany your uncle to have a few drinks later." Luo Wenbao smiled at the handsome man.
Although Luo Wenbao was smiling, he didn't seem to be very sincere, and it seemed like it was just a polite greeting.
Chen Sinan smiled slightly and said, "It's Yaya's birthday, no matter how busy I am, I have to come."
Luo Ya had an indifferent expression, as if she hadn't heard their conversation at all. She said to the man and woman opposite her, "Cousin, Jia Jia, thank you for coming to see me. How is Grandpa?"
Sitting opposite were Luo Ya's cousin Luo Tong and cousin Luo Jia, a pair of handsome men and beautiful women. The man was strong and shrewd, while the woman was delicate and witty. They were both in their twenties.
Luo Tong smiled and said, "Grandpa is in very good health. He can eat two bowls of white rice, a plate of green vegetables, and half a pound of white liquor for every meal. It's just that he misses you very much."
"But it's okay. You'll be able to go home soon. Great-grandfather's ninetieth birthday is coming up in the second half of the year, and we'll have to make good arrangements for him then."
"Of course. Cousin, please give him my regards when you go back. Tell him that Yaya misses him very much and ask him to take care of himself." Luo Ya's little face finally softened, and there was even a hint of mist in her eyes.
Luo Jia smiled and said, "Sister Yaya, let's go on a road trip together during the summer vacation. You don't know, ever since you came here, I've felt so empty inside. There's no one to play with me. That house doesn't feel like home at all, it's not warm at all."
As the youngest granddaughter of the Luo family, Luo Jia is only fifteen years old and has just started her first year of high school. However, she has been Luo Ya's follower since she was a child. The two have a very close relationship, but their personalities are very different.
Luoya is generous and always shows the nobility of being from a big family. She treats people very well and is usually very careful. However, Luojia is just the opposite. She is like a little elf, with a straightforward personality but still innocent and romantic.
"Okay, that depends on your grades this semester." Luo Ya said with a smile.
Luo Jia felt a little depressed when he heard this. It was hurtful to his self-esteem to talk about grades in front of the top student Luo Ya.
Luo Wenbao turned around and asked Luo Ya, "Yaya, how is it? Can we serve the food?"
"Wait a little longer, my friend hasn't arrived yet." Luo Ya said.
"friend?"
Chen Sinan had obviously heard of Tang Xiaobao's name from Zheng Dong, but he seemed not to care, and there was even a hint of expectation in his eyes.
"Since Yaya's friends haven't arrived yet, let's wait a little longer!"
Luo Ya took out her cell phone and called Tang Xiaobao.
At this moment, a familiar voice came from the door.
"You're not handsome at all... What? You can even tell such a lie. Are you worthy of your conscience, your parents, and your country..."
This is the cell phone ringtone set by Tang Xiaobao.
The sound was quite loud, and the door just opened. Tang Xiaobao was holding the cell phone in his hand, and then everyone in the room looked at him with strange expressions.
This ringtone is shocking!
But Tang Xiaobao was not at all self-conscious. He put away his phone, gathered his thoughts, and ignored everyone's gaze. He simply smiled apologetically at Luo Ya and said, "Yaya, I'm sorry. I just got a call from Dean Zhong and went to the hospital to assist him with an operation, so I'm late."
"Oh, Uncle Luo, hello."
Luo Ya smiled and said, "It's okay, sit down!"
After Tang Xiaobao sat down, he saw his so-called rival in love at a glance.
There is no way, Chen Sinan is so dazzling wherever he goes. His clothes, appearance, figure, temperament, and even expression are perfect and impeccable.
Tang Xiaobao glanced at Chen Sinan and felt very unhappy when he saw that the other party actually smiled and nodded at him.
He would never believe that Zheng Dong didn't tell Chen Sinan about him and Luo Ya checking into a hotel, but the other party actually smiled in response.
This can only mean one thing: Chen Sinan is a sinister person! A hypocrite!
What? Cultivation?
Sorry, Tang Xiaobao never believes this!
For example, when Liu Qiang took Wang Jing away, he couldn't remain calm.
Although Chen Sinan hasn't snatched Luo Ya away yet, there's a trend of this happening. How can he tolerate this? Is he still a man?!
"This is my classmate, Tang Xiaobao," Luo Ya introduced.
"Hey, your name is Tang Xiaobao?" Luo Jia chuckled, "What a funny name! If you had a sister, she would be called Tang Xiaocao."
sweat.
Tang Xiaobao and Luo Ya looked at each other with strange expressions.
Luo Jia opened his mouth wide: "No way, do you really have a sister?"
"It's true." Tang Xiaobao said embarrassedly.
Luo Jia shouted happily: "Wow, wow, wow, I told you I was a fortune teller, Sister Yaya, now you're convinced!"
Tang Xiaobao smiled, but the smile was a little awkward.
Zheng Dong chuckled and laughed deliberately.
Luoya glared at him.
"Is it funny?"
Luo Jia's smile disappeared instantly, and he stared at Zheng Dong with an unfriendly look.
Zheng Dong's face turned red, and he was a little at a loss.
In Bazhong City, Zheng Dong is definitely considered a second-generation rich man. He is a person who walks around with his head held high. Who dares to offend him?
Unfortunately, in front of Luo Jia, he was just a weakling among the weaklings, and he didn't have the courage to speak.
