Hearing this, Lu Fan smiled slightly. If that was the case, then there was no need to worry too much from now on. He just needed to let things develop slowly and leave everything else to time.

At least now the relationship between the other party and himself has taken a step further, and he will gradually gain the initiative in the future. The Shangguan family may slowly treat him as a friend.

Lu Fan had these ideas about the Shangguan family before. If they couldn't become friends, then they would definitely pay the price. After a while, Shangguan Jianguo called Lu Fan.

"It's convenient. I called him over tonight and we plan to have a gathering at your house together.

As for your relationship and other matters, these have nothing to do with me. Whether it can be eased depends on your luck."

After hearing this, Lu Fan was very happy. After all, achieving this step was enough.

Those were all small things before, and it wasn’t difficult to mix them together. Now, the most important thing for him was to get people over.

As long as you get this step done, everything else can come slowly.

These troubles can be solved by relaxing a little.

"Thank you for your help, old man. I owe you a favor this time." Lu Fan quickly complimented the other party and wanted to use this opportunity to ease the relationship between the two parties in order to calm himself down.

“It’s just a piece of cake, but he’s a bit petty, so it’ll be a little troublesome for you to get along with him.

As for whether the next matter can be resolved smoothly, it depends on you. I will make some preparations here and will be there around six o'clock in the evening.

After hearing this, Lu Fan immediately ordered people to make arrangements to clean up the entire room and prepare all the meals.

The time soon came to six o'clock. Lu Fan and Jiang Manyue, both wearing formal wear, expressed their importance of this matter, especially obtaining each other's forgiveness and at the same time changing their current situation.

These two are indispensable and the most important thing now. After the bell rang, Lu Fan immediately walked to the door and opened it. Shangguan Jianguo and Chen Liejun, both wearing casual clothes and smiling, were there.

Chen Liejun's face was obviously not at ease, as if he was still brooding over what happened before, but he didn't want to offend him because of Shangguan Jianguo.

"Please come in, I have already arranged a dinner. I don't know what you like, so I have prepared some."

When preparing these dishes, he also specifically consulted Shangguan Jianguo in order to make this dinner a success and at the same time let them see his diligence.

He knew clearly that everything would go according to normal in the following.

In addition, in order to please the other party and ease the relationship, you need to understand the other party's dietary taboos at every step.

After Chen Liejun looked at the food on the table, his expression eased slightly.

Lu Fan specially arranged a large table for this dinner. The original table was too small and could not hold so many dishes.

“Little brother, the dishes you cook are really varied, with all kinds of dishes, and many of them are representative works.

Especially the Hunan cuisine, which is your favorite, and the portion is quite large."

Shangguan Jianguo spoke first. He also looked at Chen Liejun standing beside him. He could see the expression on the other's face. This guy showed a lot of things on his face.

It was not difficult to guess what he was thinking, and it was also obvious that he was very fond of the food on the table.

At the same time, they took advantage of this opportunity to ease the relationship between the two sides. Let's see Lu Fan's sincerity towards the two of them.

Lu Fan took out a bottle of Moutai wrapped in kraft paper from behind him.

After opening it, the old packaging came into view, and the thing itself looked quite old.

"Two old gentlemen, I was too reckless before, and some of my actions were offensive. This time, I will drink three cups as punishment!"

After filling both of their glasses, Lu Fan stood up, held up the glass with both hands, looked at the two of them, and drank three glasses in a row.

"I don't know what you were thinking at the time. At least you should show respect to the elderly. I don't know why you said such words.

Although I don't know what you are thinking, drinking three cups as a punishment can at least show our sincerity. I am not the kind of person who cares about trivial matters."

After saying this, he looked at Lu Fan, wanting to see how he would respond to his words. He knew clearly that Lu Fan wanted to please him, and he also understood that this banquet was held for him.

After hearing this, Lu Fan also understood that the other party wanted to forgive him, but he also had to perform well in the process.

These did not seem difficult to him.

He picked up the wine glass and drank two glasses of wine in succession.

"Old sir, I was very sorry for offending you before. I thought you and Nangong Qun had some hatred towards each other.

This guy said behind your back that your relationship is a little disharmonious. I can't do anything about it. After all, the other party found such a place for me to stay, which caused this misunderstanding.

But don't worry, now that I know the identity of the Second Director, the Second Master treats me well, so from now on you can just tell me if you have anything to do.

"I'm not good at other things, but I'm good at running errands and helping out."

After saying this, he continued to observe the two of them, wanting to see what they were thinking. After saying this, Jiang Manyue on the side also slowly stood up.

Looking at the changes in their expressions, he could tell that they had basically forgiven the game or their appearance this time.

While pouring wine for the two of them, I also picked up some food for them.

“We have invited the best chefs to cook these dishes. If you want to try any of our hometown dishes, please come and try them.

Or tell me what it is called, and I will arrange for someone to do it.”

The two waved their hands and looked at the plates placed on the table. There were more than twenty dishes on the table.

There were only four of them, so this was a bit of a waste for them.

"In my opinion, forget about the dishes. We can't finish so many of them. It would be a shame to waste too much.

Every grain of rice is hard-earned, and this food must not be wasted."

Lu Fan nodded repeatedly. He could see the other party's heartache, and he also knew that these two were originally farmers.

No one knows better than the two of them the hard work that goes into producing this food.

"Don't worry, we will never waste this food. If we can't finish it, we will give it to the homeless."

Those who have climbed up from the grassroots know clearly that every grain of rice is hard-earned, and they also understand that everything is not easy to come by.
