Chapter 168: Jian Tiezhu, the Young Master of the Jian Family
Han Xi took Fang Li to sit down.
A long wooden table with two baking trays in the middle.
Fang Li and Han Xi sat on one side, Jian Yunqi and another man sat on the other side, and Lin Mo sat at the end, with the seat opposite him empty.
A waiter came over to refill tea for everyone. After the waiters left, Jian Yunqi spoke up, "Last time you said you were getting married, and we called you several times but you didn't come out. Now it seems this is the one. You've brought everyone here, wouldn't you like to introduce them?"
Fang Li looked at Han Xi in surprise. She didn't expect that he would tell others about his marriage.
Her eyes fell on Han Xi's, and Han Xi thought she minded him telling others about this.
He explained in a low voice: "I didn't tell anyone else."
Fang Li was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized that he was afraid that she would mind, so she pursed her lips slightly to indicate that it was okay.
Seeing that she really didn't seem angry, Han Xi relaxed slightly and turned to introduce them: "My wife, Xu Fangli."
Deng Xiulin was still dressed like a meticulous legal elite. Upon hearing this, he nodded friendly to Fang Li.
Jian Yunqi smiled: "Xu Fangli? Is she really Xu Fangye's sister?"
Fang Li was surprised. This person also knew her brother?
Soon, Han Xi helped her solve the problem.
He first pointed at Deng Xiulin across from him and said, "Deng Xiulin, a senior partner at an international law firm, is also in charge of Han's legal affairs."
Fang Li smiled: "Hello."
"Jian Yunqi and I grew up in the same compound. His family is in the education industry, and the national chain Mingde College is an educational brand under the Jian family.
"Mingde College? Are you talking about the private school that offers customized butler-level service?"
Han Xi: "Well, you know?"
Fang Li opened her red lips slightly, looked at Jian Yunqi with surprise, nodded and said, "Haicheng also has Mingde College. If I hadn't been unexpectedly admitted to the Affiliated High School of Jiaotong University when I was in high school, I would have almost gone to that school."
"I see." The speaker was Jian Yunqi.
"Look, this is fate!" His smile was always contagious. He suddenly extended his hand towards Fang Li: "Nice to meet you, sister-in-law."
Fang Li chuckled and held out her hand: "I'm also very happy to meet President Jian."
She didn't notice Jian Yunqi's words "sister-in-law" at all, and naturally didn't notice Jian Yunqi's meaningful smile. She even raised her eyebrows secretly at Han Xi next to her.
As soon as the two of them touched hands, Fang Li's hand was pulled back by someone.
"Jian Tiezhu, you're itching for trouble." Han Xi warned with a forced smile.
Jian Yunqi's face instantly fell.
Fang Li was surprised. Jian Tiezhu?
Seeing that Fang Li had indeed heard it, Jian Yunqi waited for Han Xi in frustration, "I just took advantage of you, why are you so cruel!"
Han Xi: "Telling the truth won't work. Why don't you ask Director Jian why he named you Tiezhu?"
Jian Yunqi: “….”
Lin Mo couldn't help laughing and used the teacup to hide his smile.
Deng Xiulin held the cup with a faint smile on his face.
Fang Li was trying so hard to hold back her smile by tightening her lips.
Iron pillar?
Jian Tiezhu?
The young master of the Jian family, the prince of the education world, actually has such a down-to-earth nickname.
Seeing Jian Yunqi was so angry that he was about to smoke, Fang Lixian couldn't bear it anymore. She cleared her throat and said, "My grandfather said that it's easier to live with a bad reputation. My brother was almost called a stinky egg when he was a child."
After saying this, Jian Yunqi's complexion improved a lot.
Deng Xiulin, Lin Mo, and Han Xi looked at her in surprise.
Fang Li picked up the teacup beside her and drank it awkwardly, but in her heart she secretly apologized to a big brother who was far away in Haicheng.
Someone who was socializing with a big boss just picked up a glass of wine when he suddenly sneezed repeatedly.
He was surprised and didn't know that he had a new nickname called Stinky Egg.
In the store, a burst of laughter suddenly rang out.
There are highs and lows.
Jian Yunqi slapped his thigh and laughed, "She's Xu Fangye's new sister. Next time we meet, I'll definitely ask him why he keeps such a fun-loving sister hidden."
Han Xi stopped smiling and glanced at him lightly.
"Ask where Jiahao is?"
Deng Xiulin picked up his phone and made a call.
Han Xi turned around and asked Fang Li: "Are you hungry? Do you want to order something to eat first?"
Fang Li shook her head. "It's okay. Your friend hasn't arrived yet. Let's wait until he arrives."
As the two were talking, Deng Xiulin had already finished his questions and hung up the phone.
"Jiahao said we're almost there, at an intersection."
At this time, the cell phone in Fang Li's bag rang.
She took it out and took a look, then whispered to Han Xi, "It's Wen Yang, I'm going out to answer a call."
Han Xi nodded.
She held her phone, smiled apologetically at a few people, stood up and walked out of the store.
Outside the barbecue restaurant is a long corridor, and under the glass fence is the commercial street.
Fang Li went out and stood by the railing to answer the phone.
Wen Yang's voice came from the other side: "Where are you?"
Fang Li: "I'm having dinner outside with Han Xi. What happened?"
There was a pause before the voice came again: "Nothing, go eat quickly, I'm hanging up now."
Fang Li vaguely heard someone talking about wedding dresses, styles, and the like.
Maybe Wen Yang's position was a little far away, so she couldn't hear clearly.
But her intuition told her that Wen Yang must have something important to tell her since he called her.
"We haven't all arrived yet. Where are you? Why can I hear other people's voices?"
Wen Yang: "Ah, not there, I, I'm eating outside too."
"Eating? Are you sure?" Fang Li didn't believe it and asked, "Then why did I hear someone asking about wedding dress styles? Are you in a bridal shop?"
Wen Yang seemed to take a deep breath, and his footsteps sounded softly, as if he had walked a little further away. When the other side was quiet and no other sounds could be heard, he said, "I really am outside. Um, my friend called me. You should go back and eat. I want to eat too. I'm hanging up now!"
After saying that, she hung up the phone without giving Fang Li any chance to speak.
Hearing the busy tone on the phone, Fang Li frowned slightly.
She had an even worse premonition in her heart. Based on her understanding of Wen Yang, he would only be so incoherent and hurried to end the topic when she was hiding something from her. Otherwise, he would always keep her talking and have endless topics to talk about.
The more Fang Li thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. Wen Yang must have lied. She was definitely hiding something from her!
Fang Li was still worried until she returned.
Han Xi noticed her abnormality, turned his head and asked her in a low voice: "What's wrong?"
Fang Li thought about something and shook her head, "It's okay."
Han Xi looked at her and said nothing more.
At this time, there was a noise at the door, and then a handsome figure walked in.
"Sorry to have kept you all waiting!"
The other person has a clear voice, and you can tell from the voice that he is not bad looking.
Sure enough, when he turned around the screen and walked over, Fang Li was immediately attracted by his slightly smiling eyes.
She looked at the person in astonishment, then turned to look at Han Xi. After repeating this several times, she leaned over and asked Han Xi secretly: "Why is he with you..."
