The Imperial Hotel is very famous in Beijing.
The reasons why it is so famous are, one, it is a century-old store, and two, it is expensive!
An ordinary meal here is equivalent to a month’s income of an ordinary family of three!
Therefore, the people who usually come here to eat are either rich or noble!
Chu Kuangren arranged lunch here.
He originally wanted to put it in the 49 Club, which also has a restaurant.
But after thinking about it, he decided to give up. The most authentic Beijing cuisine is still at the Imperial Hotel.
"Brother Chu, I'm going to have to try it after hearing you praise it so much."
After sitting down, Bai Ye looked at Chu Kuangren and said with a smile.
"Guaranteed to satisfy you!"
Madman Chu smiled and then looked at Zhao Xingming.
"Of course, it's not me who's hosting today, it's Lao Zhao."
"Haha, Brother Chu, you are being too polite. We are all family. There is no difference between you hosting and me hosting."
Zhao Xingming's face was full of smiles. After being enlightened by Chu Kuangren, his attitude had obviously changed.
Xiao Chen looked at Zhao Xingming, feeling a little puzzled. What was Old Chu whispering about with Zhao Xingming behind him before?
Although Zhao Xingming was smiling and very polite before, it was only on the surface.
Xiao Chen could still feel his changes before and after!
“Brother Chu, how did you arrange it? Let them serve the food.”
Zhao Xingming looked at Chu Kuangren and said.
"good."
Chu Kuangren nodded and said something to the manager who was standing by.
"As we said before, serve the food."
"Okay, Master Chu, please wait a moment."
The manager nodded respectfully and left the room.
"The last time I came to the Imperial Hotel was ten years ago... Time flies, ten years have passed in a flash."
After a few pleasantries, Gambling King He sighed.
"Which gambling king has been to the Imperial Hotel?"
Madman Chu looked at Gambling King He and asked curiously.
"Yes, I have been here before. It was Lao Zhao at that time..."
Gambling King He nodded and looked at Zhao Xingming.
"It was your father who brought us here. Many of our old friends who had eaten at the same table with us are gone now. Only your father and I are left."
"My old man often sighs, saying that everyone has left... This time, Mr. He, you are here, and my old man is very happy. He said he must have a few drinks with you."
Zhao Xingming smiled.
"Yes, I'm old... It's been ten years! It was also when I came to Beijing that your father decided to invest in Macau! At that time... It seemed that you were in the south and didn't come back."
Gambling King He said slowly.
"Well, I was in the South at the time, and my father told me about what happened at the time."
Zhao Xingming nodded.
"Ten years ago..."
Listening to their words, Xiao Chen smiled.
"He Gambling King, you guys are talking about things that happened ten years ago. We, the younger generation, can't even respond."
"Uh-huh."
Bai Ye also nodded. Ten years ago, they were only teenagers... and were still picking up girls in school!
"Hahaha, that's right. I won't talk to you about the past. Otherwise, I should say that we only know how to reminisce about the past... But looking at you, I feel really old. This world now belongs to you young people."
Gambling King He laughed.
"That's right, Gambling King He, this world belongs to us young people!"
Madman Chu nodded and added.
After hearing what Chu Kuangren said, the room suddenly became quiet. Everyone looked at him with strange eyes. Where's the face? Don't you want it anymore?
Even the little girl Feng Yuqing looked at Chu Kuangren and curled her lips. Uncle, no, grandpa, you are still a young man? Stop being funny, okay?
"What's wrong? My heart will always be eighteen!"
Chu Kuangren was thick-skinned enough. Under so many gazes, he was not embarrassed at all. Instead, he spoke seriously.
"No problem, Old Chu, no, Little Chu, you will always be eighteen!"
Xiao Chen nodded and said.
“…”
Chu Kuangren was speechless. Damn it, this kid is getting more and more unruly! It's ok that he always calls me 'Old Chu', but now he even dares to call me 'Little Chu'.
They chatted while the food and drinks were served.
"Men drink white wine, beauties drink red wine... How about juice for kids?"
Madman Chu glanced around and said.
"good."
Xiao Chen and others had no objection.
The wine was opened and poured into the glass.
Except for the small half poured by gambling king He, the rest were all full.
"Come, have a sip first. I'll just say that the capital welcomes everyone!"
Madman Chu picked up the cup and said.
"good!"
Xiao Chen and the others also raised their cups and clinked them together.
After finishing the drink and putting down the glass, start enjoying lunch.
Under the leadership of Chu Kuangren, the atmosphere was very good.
Especially after three rounds of wine and five dishes, Zhao Xingming also relaxed.
"Mr. Xiao... Never mind. I'll follow Brother Chu's lead and call you 'Brother Xiao' too. Do you mind?"
Zhao Xingming glanced at Chu Kuangren and said to Xiao Chen.
"Haha, okay, Brother Zhao."
Xiao Chen smiled and nodded.
"No, just call me 'Lao Zhao', otherwise, I'm afraid Brother Chu will cause trouble for me."
Zhao Xingming waved his hand and smiled.
"Mr. He is in the capital now. When you are done with your work, you must come to the Zhao family and have a visit."
"Okay, I'll definitely bother you when I have time."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Why, Brother Xiao, are you in a hurry to leave?"
Zhao Xingming asked curiously.
"Well, I have other things to do, so I can't stay in the capital for a few days."
Xiao Chen nodded.
If Zhao Xingming had heard this before, he would definitely have breathed a sigh of relief. This is a disaster, and it would be best for him to leave as soon as possible!
What if someone in the Zhao family is so blind as to provoke him?
But now, his mentality has changed. He wants to be friends with Xiao Chen, so naturally he wants Xiao Chen to stay longer.
"Okay, Brother Xiao, there's a long way to go, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future... You just do your thing first, if you need anything in the capital, just give it to me... Well, I guess you don't need me anyway."
Zhao Xingming said with a wry smile at the end.
"In Beijing, there aren't many people who dare to mess with you...Brother Chu is here too. If there's something he can't handle, then calling me probably won't help."
"That's it. Come on, let's drink."
Madman Chu picked up the wine glass. He was not worried at all about what trouble Xiao Chen might encounter in the capital... If he didn't cause trouble for others, then others would be thankful!
Later, Zhao Xingming had the same idea, but he didn't say it out loud.
After drinking for a while, Bai Ye got up and walked out.
After leaving the private room, he hummed a tune, went to the bathroom and flushed the toilet.
After pouring the water, he did not rush back to the private room, but went to the smoking area and lit a cigarette.
He was smoking and did not notice that two young men not far away were looking at him and frowning.
Two minutes later, Bai Ye finished his cigarette and walked towards the private room.
"Old Sun, is that the kid from the Longhai Bai family?"
One of the young men looked at Bai Ye's back, somewhat uncertain.
"That's right, it's him... Damn it, I'd recognize him even if he turned into ashes!"
The other young man nodded.
"This bastard ruined a good trip to Longhai and put me in solitary confinement for a month after returning!"
"Fuck, me too! Damn, it looks like this guy has come to the capital. It's true that if there's a way to heaven, he won't take it. If there's no door to hell, he will come to it! We can't do anything to him when he's in Longhai, but when he's in the capital, that's our territory!"
The first young man sneered a few times.
"Go follow him and see which room he is in. I'll go call Brother Lei... If Brother Lei knew this guy came to Beijing, he would definitely skin him alive!"
The young man called 'Lao Sun' said.
"Yes, yes, go tell Brother Lei... Brother Lei lost face in Longhai, and I don't know how the news got back to Beijing, making him embarrassed in the Beijing circle! His family also didn't allow him to go to Longhai to cause trouble, and put him in solitary confinement for three months. He is worse off than you and me!"
After the two young men exchanged a few brief words, one followed Bai Ye and the other returned to their private room.
Bai Ye had no idea that he was being watched, and he slowly returned to the private room.
"Xiaobai, hurry up, are you hiding from the alcohol? We just had another drink."
When Chu Kuangren saw Bai Ye coming in, he shouted.
"Brother Chu, am I someone who avoids alcohol? I drank a little too much, so I went to the bathroom."
Bai Ye sat down and smiled.
"We drank a lot too, why don't you go? Xiaobai, I'm not saying this as your brother, but young people should learn to be moderate."
Madman Chu looked at Bai Ye and made a harmless joke.
“…”
Bai Ye was at a loss for words. Does this mean he has kidney deficiency?
Others also laughed out loud.
In another private room, the 'Old Sun' was leaning over a young man and whispering something in his ear.
After hearing what Lao Sun said, the young man slammed the table and stood up.
"Old Sun, are you sure it was him?"
"Yeah, I'm sure of that."
Old Sun nodded.
"Brother Lei, what should we do?"
"What should I do? Damn it, he embarrassed me and locked me up for three months. What can I do? He's in Longhai, I can't deal with him, but now he's in Beijing, I can crush him to death with just a flick of my finger!"
The young man had a ferocious look on his face, with cruelty in his eyes.
"Where is he?"
"Gangzi is following him."
"good!"
The young man sneered.
"Today, I will make him leave the Imperial Hotel lying down!"
"Brother Lei, what's going on?"
There were a few young people around, and they all asked curiously.
"Don't ask any more questions, just follow me and deal with them!"
What happened at that time was a bit embarrassing, so the young man naturally would not mention it again.
"good."
Several young people stood up without asking any more questions.
"Leizi, I can make you so angry, it seems that the grudge is not small."
A bearded man next to him spoke slowly.
"Brother Tao, the grudge is indeed not small... Let's go take a look together?"
The young man nodded.
"Haha, of course we have to go check it out, let's go."
The man smiled and stood up.
A group of six or seven people left the private room.
Old Sun made a phone call, asked for the private room number, and then rushed over in a mighty manner.
"Brother Tao, Brother Lei... they are in that private room!"
When they got there, the young man pointed to the private room.
"That guy just went in."
"Fuck, you're still in the mood to drink? I gave him this drink, but he can't drink it! Come on, let's go in!"
The young man nodded, with a cold face, and without knocking, he pushed the door open and walked in.
