Rebirth 1990: The beginning is sweet and cool Bai Yueguang

Hearing this, Zhu Hongchang's face darkened.

The anger in my heart was rising, and I really wanted to strangle Zhou Qi to death on the spot.

But when it came to taking action, he didn't dare to, for the simple reason of Xiang Hongsheng's high praise for Zhou Qi just now.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Don't be complacent, you little bastard. The more Mr. Xiang praises you now, the more miserable your death will be. You asked for this. Blame it on your stupidity for giving a gift that only a fool would give."

At this time, the hotel waiter, holding an exquisite tray, walked elegantly into everyone's sight.

On the tray...

A wine bottle wrapped in newspaper instantly attracted everyone's attention.

This is the eight-hundred-year-old vintage wine that is said to be worth two million.

To be honest, judging from the appearance, it's not that great.

But no one dares to underestimate it.

Could the gift given to Xiang Hongsheng be fake?

The thought of being able to witness this 800-year-old wine with my own eyes is really an eye-opener, and it’s well worth the trip.

"Xiao Zhou, you really have good intentions," said Xiang Hongsheng.

"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Xiang. It's just a small token of my appreciation."

Zhou Qi smiled and said, "I just hope Mr. Xiang won't be too disappointed."

"What are you talking about?"

Xiang Hongsheng said: "It doesn't matter what the gift is, the thought is what matters most."

As he spoke, Xiang Hongsheng stretched out his hand with a smile and picked up the bottle of wine on the tray.

Everyone held their breath, their eyes focused on his hand, staring at the wine bottle.

Wow!

The newspaper was slowly opened.

Suddenly, Xiang Hongsheng was stunned.

A few sharp-eyed people were all dumbfounded.

This is not some 800-year-old wine, it's clearly the Erguotou sold in the convenience store.

"This...this..."

Zhu Hongchang pretended to be surprised and said, "This is the 800-year-old wine? You are kidding me, you dare to be so perfunctory about the gift for Mr. Xiang, what's the meaning of it?"

His voice was loud and everyone in the audience could hear it clearly.

He had been waiting for this moment for a long time. Feeling the surprised gazes around him, he felt very happy.

Ordinary Erguotou pretending to be an 800-year-old fine wine.

Do you think everyone present here is a fool, or do you think Mr. Xiang is a fool?

This is simply a huge joke, making fun of everyone, all of whom are well-known figures. Even if Lord Xiang wants to protect you, you will not have a good ending because of his face. What's more, this is equivalent to giving Lord Xiang a loud slap in the face in front of everyone.

Even if you are Mr. Xiang’s grandson-in-law, so what?

No matter who you are, if you play this trick, you will definitely be in trouble today.

Xiang Hongsheng looked extremely ugly.

Wouldn't this embarrass him?

If it were someone else, he would have turned hostile on the spot without saying a word, but this was Zhou Qi.

He was the only person in the whole place whom he dared not to provoke.

Zhou Qi chuckled and said, "Yes, this is ordinary Erguotou, a few dollars a bottle, you can buy it on the streets."

admit?

Some people thought that Zhou Qi would definitely find an excuse to prevaricate.

You might say that although the bottle is Erguotou, the wine inside is actually eight hundred years old.

Unexpectedly, he admitted it directly.

What does it mean?

The gift given to Mr. Xiang was actually a few dollars' worth of Erguotou. Isn't this equivalent to insulting him in public and slapping Mr. Xiang in the face?

The atmosphere suddenly became weird and everyone started whispering.

Even the Second Artillery who was present had a frown on his face, not understanding what Zhou Qi was up to.

Either way, it was reckless.

Xiang Hongsheng is the top boss in Chun City. Everyone has to be respectful to him. No one dares to embarrass him like this. Isn't this courting death?

Zhu Hongchang had a look of surprise on his face and was very happy in his heart. He was quite satisfied with everyone's reactions.

In this situation, if Xiang Hongsheng didn't show some attitude and establish his authority, he would be really embarrassed.

No matter who you are, no matter what your relationship with Xiang Chenxiang is, even if Xiang Hongsheng really likes you and acknowledges you as his grandson-in-law, so what? If you slap Xiang Hongsheng in the face in front of so many people, you can only wait for death.

The way he looked at Zhou Qi was as if he was looking at a dead person.

Lin Wan also showed a hint of sneer on his face and said, "This is just a joke. No wonder it has to be wrapped in newspaper. It really cannot be seen in public."

Just now, she saw Xiang Hongsheng being so nice to Zhou Qi, and she felt so unhappy. Now, let's see what you can do.

Hearing this, Xiang Hongsheng's face darkened and he glanced at Lin Wan.

With just this one glance, Lin Wan didn't dare to say a word and quickly lowered his head.

Zhou Qi chuckled and said, "I want to get drunk today or live forever. A cup of Erguotou will take me straight to the sky... There is an old saying that goes, 'The gift is small but the sentiment is great.' Although this Erguotou is ordinary, it has been around for a long time and has a history of 800 years."

"Since ancient times, people value the thought rather than the gift."

Mr. Xiang is famous, so he certainly won't follow the ordinary path. He wants to use this bottle of the most common wine to convey the most profound meaning and send his sincere wishes, wishing Mr. Xiang a long and healthy life.

"I hope you don't mind, Mr. Xiang."

Originally, Zhou Qi took this bottle of ordinary Erguotou to test Xiang Hongsheng's bottom line.

But judging from all the signs, is there still a need to test it?

Just two simple sentences make this Erguotou become extraordinary.

Whether the words are pleasant or not, whether you accept them or not, does not matter how expensive the gift is.

"Hahahahaha..."

Xiang Hongsheng laughed, patted Zhou Qi's arm gently, and said, "I love this gift of living happily in the present while looking forward to a long and leisurely life."

As soon as he finished speaking, he waved his hand.

The waiter brought two empty glasses.

Xiang Hongsheng opened the Erguotou, poured some, handed a glass to Zhou Qi and said, "Xiao Zhou, after hearing what you said, I feel like I'm ten years younger, and my heart is more heroic. Have a drink with me, I will treasure this bottle of wine, and for the rest, we can find some side dishes to go with the wine and enjoy it slowly some other day."

Not to mention that Zhou Qi gave him a bottle of ordinary Erguotou.

Even if it was a bottle of mineral water, he had to catch it.

Zhou Qi was secretly happy. Seeing Xiang Hongsheng again today felt very different from before. This was not just ordinary flattery, but simply fawning. It seemed that the pressure Jiang Jun gave him was even greater than he had imagined.

What kind of background could allow a big shot like Xiang Hongsheng to fawn on him like this?

Everyone was stunned.

Everyone looked at Zhou Qi with different eyes.

No matter how good the meaning is, it is just an ordinary bottle of Erguotou after all, and it doesn't make sense at all.

But Xiang Hongsheng's attitude is puzzling.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this matter is definitely not that simple.

I just don’t understand and I don’t dare to ask.

Zhou Qi took the cup with a smile. He could feel the eyes on him. He clinked glasses with Xiang Hongsheng, drank the wine in one gulp, turned to look at Zhu Hongchang and said, "Boss Zhu, this 800-year-old wine tastes really good."

"Although its price is not as good as the golden toad you gave me."

“But I think it’s the thought that counts when giving a gift.”

"Toads...eradicate...Boss Zhu, I don't quite understand what you mean..."
