Godfather and those godsons

When Jiang Chenglou's family stepped into Nanfeng City, their first move was the large-scale Runming Resort, a real estate project involving a lot of things.The whole Nanfeng City moved after hearing the news, and they all kept an eye on this piece of fat.

The branches of Zhongtian Group are basically not related to the real estate industry and other related real estate industries. Only a strong construction team may have a hand in dividing this fat.As the next executive president of the group, Yin Zhaolan firmly believes that the group's construction team can achieve something in this resort plan.For this reason, he spent a lot of energy and time to study and analyze the whole plan, and put forward a very targeted plan, hoping to get a share of it.His decision has the full support of the current group executive president Chen Tang.

After more than a month of hard work, Yin Zhaolan and Lou Yujing, the general manager of Runming Real Estate, have reached a preliminary consensus.The construction team of Zhongtian Group will be one of the designated builders of the resort plan. As for which part of the entire resort plan will be responsible, it remains to be discussed.

At the same time, Runming Real Estate officially started a detailed inspection of Zhongtian Group's construction team.

Because the construction team did not set up an independent company, but only belonged to one of the departments of Zhongtian Group headquarters, people from Runming Real Estate came directly to the group headquarters for inspection.

As the general manager of Runming Real Estate, Lou Yujing proposed to Yin Zhaolan that he hoped to meet Zheng Lie, the chairman of Zhongtian Group, but it was not for business, it was just a private invitation.

Zhongtian Group is the leading large enterprise in Nanfeng City.As the chairman of the group, Zheng Lie is indeed well known in Nanfeng City.But what is more famous is his reputation as a flamboyant dude.Zheng Shao's gossip targets can be described as thin, fat, and varied, but the media in Nanfeng City have been taken care of, and they never dared to dig too deep into his private life.

I don't know how much Lou Yujing knows about these things.

If Zheng Lie still basically doesn't care about things as before, Yin Zhaolan will naturally find a suitable reason to evade the past, but recently Zheng Lie has shown an attitude to pay attention to his performance at work, so Yin Zhaolan had to convey Lou Yujing to Zheng Lie the meaning of.

Zheng Lie's answer was very short: "No problem. Let me know the time and place after the arrangements are made."

If Lou Yujing relied solely on his status as the general manager of Runming Real Estate, Zheng Lie might not see him.But if it was a private invitation from the third young master of Jiang Chenglou's family, Zheng Lie really had to give this face.The status of the Lou family in Jiangcheng is equivalent to that of the Yin family in Nanfeng City before the accident, and they are all top aristocratic families in the region.Even An Shiwei, who has the identity of the young master of An's family, would be a little restrained when facing Shanglou Yujing.

The meeting place was finally set at the most famous restaurant of Country F in Nanfeng City.Lou Yujing booked the only sea view box on the top floor of the restaurant.

Only Zheng Lie, Yin Zhaolan and Lou Yujing were present.

Yin Zhaolan was picked up by Lou Yujing himself.When they arrived, they saw Zheng Lie closing the Bugatti's door.Wearing a well-fitting suit with a stand-up collar, he was tall and tall, with handsome eyebrows. He threw the keys to the car boy in a chic manner, attracting the attention of several handsome men and women nearby.

"Young Master Zheng is indeed very charming." Seeing this scene, Lou Yujing, who had already recognized Zheng Lie, couldn't help laughing.

Yin Zhaolan remained silent, but a faint unease flashed in his eyes.He always felt that Lou Yujing's words meant something.After dealing with Lou Yujing for more than a month, Yin Zhaolan has already deeply realized how powerful this person is.Although the friendship between each other seems to be good now, Yin Zhaolan is still full of energy towards Lou Yujing, and he does not take it lightly.

For some unknown reason, both of them just watched Zheng Lie's figure walk into the restaurant, and didn't call him out.

"Let's go up, don't keep your boss waiting." Lou Yujing said nonchalantly.

Yin Zhaolan said apologetically, "Brother Lou, don't say I poured cold water on you, but Mr. Zheng...has never been the one to wait for others."

It seems to have been a century since the last time I had dinner with Zheng Lie.Zheng Lie's patience is not good, and he doesn't like to wait for others. He usually arrives at least a quarter of an hour late when he makes an appointment with someone.Yin Zhaolan is just the opposite.His upbringing made him always arrive a little earlier than the appointed time.When they were together before, Yin Zhaolan even put on a face because of Zheng Lie's habit of being late, but later Zheng Lie simply came to pick him up every time.But for others, Zheng Lie still maintains this habit.

Yin Zhaolan doesn't think Zheng Lie will be an exception because of Lou Yujing.

"A Lan, you know Zheng Shao very well!" Lou Yu Jing praised, "It's okay, I don't mind."

But when they arrived at the box on the top floor, Zheng Lie had already sat down in his seat, leaning on the back of the large and luxurious chair, with his legs crossed, looking meaningfully at the night view of the sea outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Thinking of what he said downstairs just now, Yin Zhaolan suddenly felt hot on his face.

In fact, Zheng Lie found out that he was the one who arrived first, and he was wondering.Fortunately, after a while, there was movement at the door of the box.

He turned his head and saw formally dressed Yin Zhaolan walking in side by side with a strange young man in a three-piece complicated suit.The young man's eyebrows were long and narrow but not flattering, his temperament was restrained and elegant, he was well-bred, and he had the reserved indifference unique to the children of the aristocratic family. He was somewhat similar to Yin Zhaolan many years ago, except that he lacked the beautiful and vigorous vigor of a young man.

He and Yin Zhaolan stood together, unexpectedly matching each other.

"Young Master Zheng, this is the third young master of the Lou family, Mr. Lou Yujing." Yin Zhaolan quickly restrained his emotions, and introduced appropriately, "Brother Lou, this is the chairman of Zhongtian Group, Mr. Zheng Lie. "

This time, Yin Zhaolan finally called Zheng Lie "Young Master Zheng", and did not deliberately break up the relationship between the two in front of Lou Yujing.

Zheng Lie stretched out his hand to Lou Yujing: "Zheng Lie."

Lou Yujing shook hands with him: "Young Master Zheng, hello, I'm Lou Yujing. To save face, friends call me Third Young Master Lou."

Zheng Lie smiled and said, "Just do whatever you want, I don't care too much. Sit down, I'll wait until I'm hungry." Who is your friend?

Zheng Lie's anti-client-oriented attitude made Lou Yujing pause slightly.He grew up in an aristocratic family, and the exquisiteness of his character has been deeply rooted in his bones. Wherever he usually goes, even if he doesn't express it deliberately, it is easy to make people feel ashamed.Those people just asked not to be rude in front of Lou Yujing, how could there be such a carefree and informal like Zheng Lie?

Sure enough, an upstart is an upstart.

"I'm sorry to keep you waiting." In order to maintain etiquette, Lou Yujing had to say.

"Forget it, just don't do this next time." Zheng Lie waved his hand indifferently.

Lou Yujing paused again, and greeted Yin Zhaolan, "Alan, sit down."

"Okay." Yin Zhaolan nodded and sat down gracefully.From an angle that Lou Yujing couldn't see, he gave Zheng Lie a sneaky look.

Lou Yujing is still a customer!Why didn't he face him as soon as he came up?

Zheng Lie glanced at him, then averted his gaze lightly.

Because the food was French, Lou Yujing's cooking completely followed the dining etiquette of country F, and he even spoke in F language when ordering food.The one who served them was the manager of the restaurant. As a mixed race, he spoke authentic F.He praised Lou Yujing's pronunciation and called him an elegant gentleman.

Yin Zhaolan also dabbled in F language a little, and ordered the dishes calmly.

"Zheng Shao, today's grilled steak and creamy lobster soup are very good, why don't you order this?" Yin Zhaolan looked at Zheng Lie and asked.

Now Zheng Lie finally focused on him.

Lou Yujing's way of acting is clearly resentful of Zheng Lie's embarrassment for him just now, and he wants to embarrass Zheng Lie.Yin Zhaolan knew that Zheng Lie couldn't speak French, so she took the initiative to speak up to help him out.Moreover, he actually remembered that he likes to eat beef and lobster?

I have to say that Zheng Lie was a little surprised.Yin Zhaolan didn't even know what fruit he liked before...

"That's it." Zheng Lie said.

Yin Zhaolan unconsciously bent her lips slightly, and ordered Zheng Lie's dishes to the mixed-race manager in F language.

"What kind of wine does Young Master Zheng like to drink from country F?" Lou Yujing asked gently, as if he didn't care about Yin Zhaolan helping Zheng Lie out of the siege.

"Lafite." Zheng Lie hesitated for a moment, remembering the foreign wine he and An Shiwei drank as water.

"Lafite is always too much." Lou Yujing squinted his slender eyes, "Why don't you try Romanee-Conti. I remember that there are 77 years, and the output is 9360 bottles. Although this number is a bit much, but in such a It’s rare for a small place.”

This sentence was really a bit rude, Zheng Lie raised his eyes and looked at Yin Zhaolan.

Yin Zhaolan said: "Romanee-Conti in 77 is a bit sweet. Zheng Shao likes spirits, but unfortunately it is not suitable for drinking with meals. If you have time in the future, let's taste it together. The soup we ordered tonight is very good .”

"Since Alan, you open your mouth, let's forget it tonight." Lou Yujing patted the back of Yin Zhaolan's hand and said slowly.

Yin Zhaolan frowned imperceptibly, avoiding his touch by holding the water glass.

Lou Yujing smiled indifferently, glanced at Zheng Lie, and then naturally half-cast his eyes.

"... What does Zheng Shao usually do for entertainment?" Lou Yujing asked

"Where is Mr. Lou?" Zheng Lie asked back.

"Do business, or make some friends like A Lan. Speaking of which, I really envy Zheng Shao for having such a capable and beautiful subordinate as A Lan." Lou Yujing joked, "I have already answered Zheng Shao's question. , Young Master Zheng hasn't answered my question yet."

"I didn't say I wanted to know Mr. Lou's answer." Zheng Lie said innocently.

"Really?" Lou Yujing's tone was a bit cold.

"Does it count as having fun?" Zheng Lie raised his eyebrows.

"...Young Master Zheng can joke." Lou Yujing said, but a look of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.

"Yes, just joking." Zheng Lie replied casually, seeing the satisfaction in Lou Yujing's eyes froze.He was giving face to the third young master of the Lou family, but if he was shameless, no wonder he fought back.Just because he gave him face doesn't mean he's afraid of him.

The two chatted one after another, one was pointing something, the other was careless, and they were faintly confronting each other.Yin Zhaolan remained silent, pretending to be invisible.

After a while, the dishes they ordered were delivered one after another.Lou Yujing finally died down, picked up the knife and fork and began to eat.

Both Lou Yujing and Yin Zhaolan are people who can't speak.Zheng Lie did a good job when he needed to be pretentious, and he was impatient and continued to talk to Lou Yujing in a roundabout way, so it was just right not to make a sound and bury his head in his meal.

The dishes in front of Zheng Lie included grilled steak and creamy lobster soup, as well as a baked potato with minced meat.

Yin Zhaolan had never ordered this dish before, so she was a little puzzled when she saw it.It stands to reason that such a high-end restaurant would not make such a low-level mistake of sending the wrong dish.

But seeing that Zheng Lie's expression was normal and he was eating well, Yin Zhaolan suppressed his doubts.

Lou Yujing was not surprised to find that although Zheng Lie's dining etiquette was good, it was not as elegant as his and Yin Zhaolan's movements, showing their nobleness.

After finishing the meal, Zheng Lie apologized and said that he had another appointment and had to go first.

Lou Yujing stood up and shook hands with him to say goodbye: "It's a pleasure to meet you. I'll send Alan back later, Young Master Zheng, go slowly."

"...Young Master Zheng, go slowly." Seeing that Zheng Lie did not object to Lou Yujing sending him off, Yin Zhaolan had to stand up and said something.

Zheng Lie nodded, twisted up his suit jacket, and walked out of the box without looking back at Yin Zhaolan.

When the door of the box was closed again, Lou Yujing sat down and looked at Yin Zhaolan leisurely: "Alan, do you think it's worth following such a person?" This sentence is a pun.

Yin Zhaolan didn't expect him to be so straightforward all of a sudden, he was startled, and said calmly, "Mr. Lou, I don't understand what you mean."

Lou Yujing said softly: "You deserve better."

Yin Zhaolan said: "I think I am satisfied with everything so far."

"Why do you have to convince yourself?" Lou Yujing said.

Yin Zhaolan didn't speak, but curled up his lips a little coldly, and the gesture of refusing to talk was obvious.

"I'll give you time to think about it." Lou Yujing said considerately, "Don't worry, your answer will not affect the resort's project. Your construction team is very capable, there is no doubt about it."

"Thank you." Yin Zhaolan said.

"You're welcome, you deserve it." Lou Yujing said, nodding for the manager to come over.

"What's your order, Mr. Lou?" the mixed-race manager asked respectfully.

"Check out." Lou Yujing handed him a gold card.

The manager said: "Mr. Lou, Young Master Zheng has ordered this meal to be charged to his account. Young Master Zheng said that this is just a slight advance in the friendship of the landlord."

"...Young Master Zheng often comes here for dinner?" Lou Yujing looked at Yin Zhaolan, and Yin Zhaolan was rarely surprised.Zheng Lie had never brought him to this restaurant for dinner.Of course, this may be because he once said that he doesn't like F national cuisine.

"Many years ago, Young Master Zheng came here often. But later Young Master Zheng didn't like F national cuisine." The manager was a little frustrated.

Yin Zhaolan's heart moved slightly: "I saw that you just gave Zheng Shao a baked potato with minced meat..."

"This is Zheng Shao's favorite dish." The manager explained, "Zheng Shao is one of our bosses, and we have always kept his favorite menu. He doesn't need to order, and we also know what to serve. It's just Tonight, Zheng Shao listened to Mr. Yin's suggestion and changed the dishes."

Both Lou Yujing and Yin Zhaolan were stunned!

Zheng Lie is actually one of the bosses here? !

At this time, the manager snapped his fingers and signaled the waiter to come in with the wine tied with a ribbon, and held it in front of Lou Yujing: "This is a gift from Mr. Zheng Shao to Mr. Lou. The 1945 Romanée-Conti has only 600 copies in the world. The bottle is Zheng Shao's personal collection, Mr. Lou please accept it."

Lou Yujing is so old, this is the first time he knows the feeling of being completely stripped of his face!
