"Don't we have you? You are known as a role model of the second generation of rich people in the industry, so you can help us dispel rumors." Pan Yang laughed shamelessly: "I want to take you as an example, so I rush to flatter you."

Even though Ding Hong was always stern, he couldn't help but smile. Who doesn't like to hear nice words?

"Uncle, don't worry, you can dominate the business world with just your mouth." Ding Hong scolded with a smile: "Please tell me your other half reason."

"What else can I say? Of course we should have fun together, my little friend."

"I thought you had some lofty ambitions."

"Haha, that's enough. If you say a few more words, I'll be so disgusted that I'll vomit, don't blame you."

"You're probably afraid of vomiting on your precious new car."

"Yes! It's not worth it for you." Pan Yang said while stroking the steering wheel with an intoxicated look on his face: "I have a buddy who recently opened a nightclub. Let's go and support him." As if worried that Ding Hong would refuse, he hurriedly added: "This buddy has a rich family background. I promise that your precious time will not be in vain."

Ding Hong was indeed about to decline as his schedule had been very tight recently, but an important project here had reached a critical stage and required him to come forward in person to negotiate.

After a moment's hesitation, Ding Hong made a decision. He nodded and said, "I understand, but we can't stay too late. Business is more important."

"Of course." Pan Yang was delighted. He had boasted to the other party that he would bring Ding Hong over to make friends with him. You know, this childhood friend of his is quite famous in the circle of wealthy families, of course, under the name "Sea King".

Now that the fun stuff is done, it’s time to talk about food.

"Hey, our golden spotted fish are at their fattest, and you came at the perfect time. How about having it for the welcoming banquet?"

Ding Hong narrowed his eyes upon hearing this, and as if he thought of something casually, he said, "Well, by the way, please help me send an airmail back. I'll send you the address first." Then he picked up the phone. He has always been a man of action.

"It's a small matter! Is it for family or a gift? How many pounds is appropriate?"

If Ding Hong is a powerful dragon, then Pan Yang is a lively "local snake". Although this fish is an extremely rare wild freshwater fish in the local area and even in the country, it is not a problem for him, otherwise wouldn't it be in vain to occupy this place for more than ten years?

Ding Hong knows as much about this fish as his friend. The "Golden Spot" is a scaleless fish named after the golden spots on its body. Its meat is tender and sweet, and it has a rare scent gland in its body that exudes a sesame-like fragrance. It has a long growth cycle and cannot be artificially bred, so the yield is rare. It also has very high requirements for water quality and only lives in waters with rapids and many rocks, making it difficult to catch.

These are secondary. Because of its sweet, flat taste, non-toxic, and the effect of replenishing deficiency, benefiting the spleen and stomach, and high fat content, it has been recorded in history books as early as now. It can be compared with shark fin and wild turtle. Its therapeutic effects and medicinal value are not possessed by other fish. Its unique effects of strengthening sperm and bones and prolonging life are its unique highlights.

"It's just medium quality, for home consumption." While Ding Hong was talking, his hands were not idle, as the text message was sent successfully.

While waiting for the red light, Pan Yang checked his phone and added a few words to the text message, then forwarded it to his subordinates to handle it. At the same time, he asked curiously: "Why is it the hotel address? Are you worried that your chef won't cook well?"

"It's none of your business. I have my own reasons."

"Okay! There are only two things in the world: the first one is none of your business, and the second one is none of my business!" After saying that, Pan Yang laughed heartily. Ding Hong remembered that they loved to say this catchphrase back then, and couldn't help but laugh too.

The next day, which was Sunday evening, although the sun was setting, the scorching summer heat had not yet subsided and the air was still steaming fiercely.

Of course, these had nothing to do with An Yi. At this moment, she wanted to go outside to bask in the sun to fight off the coldness around her body. Yes, even colder than the air-conditioning in the car was the overbearing boss sitting behind her.

Xiao Yang, who was driving, seemed to sense An Yi's fear of the cold, and took the initiative to raise the air-conditioning temperature in the passenger seat again. Although the effect was limited, it was better than nothing.

An Yi noticed that she was touched by the other party's thoughtfulness, but she didn't dare to say or move too much, so as not to disturb her boss who was working on the computer. She lamented that she was caught by her boss out of the company to accompany a guest on the weekend. Fortunately, she foresaw that her boss might suddenly come to the company because of the countdown to the press conference, so she dressed formally, at least in a neat suit.

Finally arrived at the destination, a famous five-star hotel in the city.

Following my boss into the magnificent yet steady and majestic lobby, it was like walking into a European aristocratic palace. While waiting for the elevator, I casually observed that not only the lobby wall ceiling, but also the top of the elevator was in the Roman style with arches, and there were also Renaissance Roman statues. The luxurious and aristocratic decoration style revealed the smell of RMB everywhere... uh... the sweet smell.

Stepping into the elevator, the glass walls were golden in tone, so bright and smooth that you couldn't even find the fine lines of your hand. An Yi lamented that what she wore today was not elegant at all, but it was enough to prove the boss's confidence. Thinking of the last time in the revolving restaurant, he also didn't care whether his secretary's clothes matched the negotiation occasion. I guess he thought that in the eyes of others, everyone around him could be adorned with his glory and be gilded, even if they were wearing sacks.

Thinking of this, An Yi imagined himself covered in gold foil, and pursed his lips to suppress the smile that was about to overflow. Suddenly, Amy's figure appeared in his mind again. If she was with him at this moment, the two of them would be so well matched and so pleasing to the eye.

An Yi didn't know that when she spread her wings of imagination towards the figure reflected in the glass wall, she was also being seen through by someone.

Her mental quality is pretty good. Ding Hong was pleased. He never stopped observing her silently, not even missing the barely perceptible smile. In fact, when he saw An Yi's discomfort with her clothes, he had already regretted it: Should he inform her of the occasion she would attend in advance so that she would have a chance to think about what to wear? Of course, Ding Hong thought it was unnecessary, as they were just having a meal, and it was just the two of them.

But seeing her expression just now, he finally realized that he had made a mistake in his consideration. Fortunately, this woman had a good ability to adjust herself, and she let it go in just a moment. And that slightly mischievous look, I really don't know what bad thoughts she has in her mind. Although Ding Hong was curious, unfortunately he would not ask, not to mention that the other party would never tell the truth.

Ding. The elevator stopped steadily and arrived at the real destination of this trip - Lanhai Palace Restaurant.

As soon as the elevator door opened, the receptionist was already waiting there gracefully.

What a beautiful lady! An Yi exclaimed, this girl should participate in a talent show.

Because she was walking in front and leading the way, the girl only had her back to them, but that was enough to make An Yi unable to take her eyes away: the fan-shaped upper body, the slender waist, the round buttocks, the slender legs, wow! He was so busy admiring the beauty that his steps slowed down unconsciously.

Ding Hong deliberately slowed down his pace and tried to walk side by side, but when he saw that a certain woman did not keep up with him as expected, he subconsciously turned his head to take a look. He was almost angry. Why didn't he appreciate such a beautiful person but drooled at the waitress?

As if he had noticed something, An Yi suddenly calmed down, straightened his face, lowered his head and took two quick steps to catch up.

Ding Hong was secretly angry, but he didn't bother to pay attention anymore and strode forward.

The receptionist pushed open a Chinese palace-style pearwood door and turned to introduce the name of the private room and the origin of the interior decorations. An Yi knew that the distinguished guest had not arrived yet, so he looked around the place at ease.

Needless to say, the decoration of the box is exquisite and luxurious, and it also has a warm and harmonious feeling, which is really clever. The area is not as big as imagined, huh? Although the table legs are intricately carved, it is just a regular-sized Chinese long square table. An Yi was surprised, narrowed his eyes and carefully counted the chairs, there were only four. Apart from himself, are there only two people on the other side? A restaurant located in such a high-end hotel must be expensive, so why not spend more money to make it more grand?

Well, the world of rich people is hard to understand. I guess the boss has his own ideas for making such an arrangement.

The person in charge of the box was a pretty girl who had already helped the boss to take a seat and was waiting for her instructions with a smile. An Yi waved her hands, saying that she was not a VIP, but a soldier.

"Please sit down." Ding Hong said as he was casually flipping through the menu in his hand.

An Yi stood respectfully with his hands down, smiling gently, "Thank you, boss. It would be better for me to wait for the guests to arrive before sitting down." Isn't this the purpose of bringing a secretary? To welcome and see off guests for one's boss.

Ding Hong knew her character and was too lazy to talk to her. After ordering a few appetizers and desserts, he looked up at the excellent employee opposite him who was performing her secretary duties diligently. He didn't know whether to praise her or hate her rigidity.

He waved his hand to signal the waiter to leave, leaving the room in silence as the two of them confronted each other in a strange manner.

An Yi was depressed. She didn't want this to happen. God knows why she was disobeying her boss again. No, she had to break this dilemma as soon as possible. When her boss came to his senses, he might make another move.

"Boss, should I go and greet the guests?" The best option is to find an opportunity to avoid the enemy's attention.

Before she could respond, there was a knock on the door. A guest is coming! An Yi was busy concentrating and putting on a standard smile. However, the man who opened the door, although dressed in a suit, looked more like...

"Boss Ding, haha, you haven't been here for a while! We took good care of the fish as soon as it was delivered this morning. It is in great condition, don't worry! If you need it to be cooked, please let us know at any time. Our famous chef has been waiting for us since early morning. This fish must be cooked and eaten right after it is cooked to taste the best. We will cook it immediately when our distinguished guest arrives and you give the order! This 'golden grouper' is a rare fish, which has broadened our horizons. Thanks to our chef Li Ming who cooked this fish when he worked for the state banquet a few years ago, he will never fail. I guarantee that you and your distinguished guest will be satisfied!"

My God, this guy must be the manager of this restaurant, right? He is really good at speaking. Look at how he speaks so eloquently, without letting his boss's cold face affect his enthusiasm for boasting.

admire! admire!

An Yi secretly admired it, and at the same time, she could hear clearly why they chose this place for the banquet. "Golden Spot"? She tried hard to recall, but she had never heard of it. Curious, she wanted to open her phone and search for this magical fish.

Calm down, calm down, I am the secretary of President Ding Hongding. Anyway, I can taste it in a while, hehe!

Thinking of this, An Yi subconsciously pursed her lips and looked towards the door, hoping that the distinguished guest would show up soon.

"You're interested. Let's get started. As for the method, the plan you sent last night is very good." Ding Hong said, his tone was calm as always, but he was a little proud in his heart. He had seen An Yi's curious look, and just hoped that it would suit her taste and make all the trouble worthwhile. Then he decided to get her to eat more anyway, because the therapeutic effect of this fish is very suitable for this woman's poor constitution that cannot be supplemented.

The other two people in the room all looked suspicious. Almost at the same time, they retracted their gazes from the door and turned to look at the stern man sitting at the table, with question marks in their minds: "Has the VIP arrived? But... where is he?"
