Chapter 2209 If you want to leave first, then leave first!
After learning that the assassination failed, the mastermind was very disappointed and angry, but he did not show it on the surface, because everyone is smart, and they will find it as long as it is a little more obvious.
Forbearance is also a powerful skill.
Gu Ning drove fast all the way, and the 20-minute journey only took him 10 minutes to reach his destination. At this time, Song Wenxuan and others were already in the private room, ready to eat.
After parking the car, Gu Ning went to the private room where Song Wenxuan was having dinner, but did not go in. Instead, he stayed outside and then looked through to see what was going on inside.
When the waiter saw Gu Ning standing outside the private room in a daze, he stepped forward to drive her away. After all, the people living in this room were all important people, and it would be bad if this girl bumped into them.
In response to the waiter's shooing, Gu Ning said, "My uncle is eating inside. Can't I wait for him outside? I'm not going in to disturb him."
When the waitress heard what Gu Ning said, her attitude softened immediately. She was afraid of offending these officials' children, but she was also afraid that Gu Ning was lying to her, so she asked, "Who is your uncle?"
"Song Wenxuan." Gu Ning said.
Hearing Gu Ning's words, the waiter took a breath. She turned out to be the niece of the provincial deputy executive director.
"Do you need me to pass the message on for you?" the waiter asked, asking this with two thoughts in mind.
First, if this girl is really the niece of the provincial deputy executive director, she cannot afford to offend her, so by doing this, she is flattering him.
Second, if this girl was not the niece of the provincial deputy executive director, she would definitely be scared away by what I said.
"Okay! Just tell my uncle that I have something to talk to him about, but if it's not convenient for me to go in, I will wait for him outside. Otherwise, he will think that I have to go in and will say that I am ignorant." Gu Ning said. She didn't really want to go in, but just wanted to use this opportunity to tell Song Wenxuan that she was here so that he could rest assured.
"Okay." Seeing Gu Ning agreed, the waiter was sure that she was the niece of the provincial deputy executive director, so he treated her with even more courtesy.
Then the waiter knocked on the door and went in.
The atmosphere in the private room was not very good. After all, the people present were people with opposing relations in the political arena. This dinner was mainly to receive officials who came from the capital for inspection.
However, these officials were obviously not from the Leng family faction, so they were somewhat targeting Song Wenxuan.
However, Song Wenxuan is not someone who can be easily targeted, and even if they target him, they dare not go too far.
Because their official positions were not higher than Song Wenxuan's, they just came from the capital and were guests, so Song Wenxuan needed to treat them with courtesy.
And although they have backers, Song Wenxuan also has backers, who are much more powerful than theirs, so they don't dare to go too far.
The waiter was allowed to come in. Facing this group of important people, the waiter was extremely nervous. He trembled and said cautiously to Song Wenxuan: "Deputy CEO Song, there is a girl outside who said she is your niece. She said she has something to ask you. If it is inconvenient for her to come in, she will wait for you outside."
When Song Wenxuan heard this, he knew that it was Gu Ning who came, and his originally uneasy heart finally settled down.
He also knew that Gu Ning asked the waiter to come and talk to him not for the purpose of asking her to come in, but to tell him that she had arrived so that he could feel at ease.
However, it is indeed not convenient to let Gu Ning in for today's dinner.
"Go and tell her that it's not convenient for me here, and ask her to wait for a while, and we can go home together later." Song Wenxuan said.
"Okay." The waiter responded and went out.
After the waiter came out, he relayed Song Wenxuan's words to Gu Ning, but Gu Ning didn't care.
The waiter wanted to arrange for Gu Ning to rest in the lounge, after all, they would need some time to finish their meal, but Gu Ning refused. Gu Ning waited here, so that if something really happened, he could take action in time.
So the waiter no longer insisted.
In the private room, when everyone heard Song Wenxuan say that he would leave after dinner, someone immediately expressed dissatisfaction: "Deputy CEO Song, we've finished our meal and there's still a second show! How can you leave first!"
"Yeah! You're not giving Commissioner Fang face!"
“······”
Facing everyone's accusations, Song Wenxuan did not get angry, but explained helplessly: "I have no choice! Look, isn't my nephew's wife still waiting for me outside? My nephew's wife came here from the capital today for something, and she happened to come to me for something. If I don't rush to deal with it, the old man will know and I will be killed! You know, the old man loves my nephew's wife very much!"
Upon hearing this, several people's faces turned unhappy, because if Song Wenxuan didn't go, some things would not be done.
"You mean, the granddaughter-in-law of the Leng family?" an official asked upon hearing this.
"Yes! The wife of the eldest grandson of the Leng family is the one with the rank of major general at a young age." Song Wenxuan said, deliberately mentioning the identity of major general in order to make them feel intimidated and not embarrass themselves.
None of the people sitting here has a status comparable to Leng Shaoting's. Besides, Leng Shaoting is the eldest master Sun of the Leng family!
Perhaps they would not take him, the son-in-law of the Leng family, seriously, but they would not dare to take him, the direct descendant of the Leng family, seriously.
Sure enough, after hearing what Song Wenxuan said, no one forced him anymore. If the matter really got to Leng Shaoting or Old Man Leng, it would be really troublesome.
They didn't know Leng Shaoting well, but they had heard something about his deeds. Even if he didn't have those so-called deeds, his identity alone was enough to make them wary.
"In that case, we won't force Deputy Executive Director Song. But it's not good to keep General Leng's wife waiting for a long time. Why not invite her in for dinner?" said an official.
"We are a group of grown men, it would not be nice to ask a girl like her to come in. Let her wait for a while! She won't mind." Song Wenxuan said. He really felt that it was inappropriate for Gu Ning, a girl, to come in and have dinner with a group of grown men like them.
"That's true. Vice CEO Song has finished his meal. If he wants to leave first, then go ahead! CEO Wang and the others will be with you here." said an official from the capital.
"Okay, then I'll leave after I finish eating. After I've dealt with the matter of my nephew's wife, I'll host you again when I have the chance. I apologize to you all." Song Wenxuan was not polite and agreed directly. Anyway, there was no need to be really polite to them. Just being polite would be enough.
As for the opportunity to host, it's just talk.
And we are all smart people, so no one will take it seriously.
