After everyone arrived at "Zhiweixuan", Zhao Junchen found a seat by the window on the second floor and ordered a few dishes that Su Xiuning highly recommended.∈↗
Because there were not many diners, the food was served very quickly without much delay.
After Zhao Junchen tasted a few chopsticks, he sincerely praised Su Xiuning's recommendation. The Anhui cuisine in "Zhiweixuan" was indeed authentic and delicious.
Then, Zhao Junchen, Chen Zhirong, Su Xiuning, and Cui Qianxue ate and chatted, and time passed slowly.
Because of what happened at "Yue Rongfang", the atmosphere among everyone was not as awkward and dull as it was at first. Even Cui Qianxue gradually regained some of her liveliness, so Zhao Junchen was in a happy mood during the meal.
When the dishes on the table were halfway through, Chen Zhirong glanced out the window with her wonderful eyes, then smiled softly and said: "Mr. Zhao, the person we have been waiting for has finally arrived."
After hearing Chen Zhirong's reminder, Zhao Junchen also looked out the window and saw Xu Qingyan leading two old men and a young man towards "Zhiweixuan" at the corner of the street.
Two old men walked side by side. The old man on the left was dressed luxuriously and had a handsome figure, but his expression was full of anxiety, while the old man on the right was of average build, plainly dressed, white-faced and beardless, but had an elegant temperament and a much calmer expression.
As for the young man, it was Mr. Wu whom Zhao Junchen and others had met once in "Yue Rongfang". At this time, he was following behind the two old men, his head lowered, his expression full of frustration, and holding a cup in his hand.
with two wooden boxes.
"Well, it's finally here." Zhao Junchen nodded. His expression was calm, and he slowly added: "It's later than I thought."
Chen Zhirong said with a smile: "I'm afraid it was because Mr. Wu's father was asking for connections to move reinforcements. That's why the time was delayed, right? Well, that rich old man should be Mr. Wu's father. As for the old man next to him, it's hard to believe
Bu Cheng is Mr. Wu’s uncle, Cao Wenbin, the Minister of Household Affairs in Nanjing?”
"It should be that we are inseparable." Zhao Junchen said: "I heard that Cao Wenbin also came to Xuzhou with Tang Zhen, the Minister of Household Affairs in Nanjing, but when I was at the Xuzhou dock, I only focused on meeting Wang Baoren and Tang Zhen.
Zhou Xuan didn't pay attention to other people, so he didn't recognize him."
Chen Zhirong smiled again and said: "This time Mr. Wu provoked Mr. Zhao, I'm afraid he was scolded by his father. I don't know how his father plans to apologize to Mr. Zhao."
However, Zhao Junchen had a gentle expression, as if he had a broad mind. He said calmly: "Speaking of it, the dispute between me and Mr. Wu is just an ordinary dispute. Both sides have their own reasons. It cannot be said who is right and who is wrong, not to mention Mr. Wu.
They don't have any bad intentions, so they don't need to apologize. As long as they cede those two crystal pancreas to me, the matter will be over... Maybe, by taking this opportunity, I can still become friends with them, and we will have friends in the future.
Opportunity to coorparate."
Hearing what Zhao Junchen said, Chen Zhirong was slightly startled, vaguely feeling that Zhao Junchen had some plan in mind. However, he could not figure out the specific content of this plan.
However, this feeling of incomprehension made Chen Zhirong feel more and more attracted to Zhao Junchen - Chen Zhirong likes to figure out other people's thoughts and control other people's destinies. But for Chen Zhirong, wanting to be her husband...
It must be a smart and strong man who can not only keep her guessing, but also make her unable to control easily! This is the nature of women, even Chen Zhirong is no exception!
On the other side, listening to the conversation between Zhao Junchen and Chen Zhirong, Su Xiuning and Cui Qianxue repeatedly wanted to interrupt and express their opinions, but they didn't know how to speak, and they couldn't help but feel a little depressed.
It has to be said that although Su Xiuning is quiet and elegant, and Cui Qianxue is innocent and simple, Chen Zhirong and Zhao Junchen are the same kind of people. Their perspectives on problems and their angles of analyzing things are somewhat similar, so they also have a common language.
While Zhao Junchen and Chen Zhirong were chatting, Xu Qingyan also brought the two old men and Mr. Wu to the second floor of "Zhiweixuan".
"Master, after I sent your name card to Rongfa Shipbuilding, Wu Youzhen, the big boss of Rongfa Shipyard, came with me and said he wanted to apologize to you. Also with him was Cao Wenbin, the Minister of Household Affairs in Nanjing.
Sir, there is also Mr. Wu whom we met in Yuerongfang." Xu Qingyan came to Zhao Junchen and reported with disdain.
Of course, this disdain was directed at the people behind him.
As Xu Qingyan finished speaking, the two old men behind him took a step forward, both bowed and saluted.
"Cao Wenbin, the Minister of Household Affairs in Nanjing, pays homage to Mr. Zhao!"
"Wu Youzhen of the Cao Min Rongfa Trading Company came to see Mr. Zhao. The traitor has been blind today and has offended Mr. Zhao in many ways. The Cao Min is here to apologize to Mr. Zhao for him! I also hope that Mr. Zhao will be magnanimous and think that he is young and careless. Don't blame him on Mr. Zhao.
he."
As Chen Zhirong had guessed before, among the two old men, the one with a rich body and anxious look was Wu Youzhen, the owner of "Rongfa Shipping Company", while the old man with simple clothes and elegant temperament was Cao Wenbin, the minister of household affairs in Nanjing.
Seeing the two old men taking the initiative to salute, Zhao Junchen said with a smile: "It turns out that Mr. Cao and Boss Wu are here. There was indeed some dispute between Mr. Wu and I today. In order to avoid misunderstandings, I sent someone to give Boss Wu a gift."
I put up a famous post to show the reconciliation between the two parties, but I didn't expect that not only Boss Wu came, but also Mr. Cao... Well, you two don't need to be polite. I am traveling incognito this time, so we don't have to talk about official rules.
.”
As he said that, Zhao Junchen turned to look at Mr. Wu, smiled again, and said: "Speaking of which, I don't know the name of Mr. Wu yet! Why? Why don't you introduce yourself?"
Mr. Wu has kept his head down since he came here, but he still peeks at Chen Zhirong from time to time. However, he now knows Zhao Junchen's identity and understands that he is not qualified to "compete for women" with Zhao Junchen, so he looks depressed.
It actually sounded a bit discouraged.
On the other side, after hearing Zhao Junchen's inquiry, Mr. Wu had not said anything yet, but Wu Youzhen turned around and shouted loudly: "Evil son! Why are you still here in a daze? Why don't you apologize to Master Zhao quickly!?"
Hearing Wu Youzhen's scolding, Mr. Wu looked a little embarrassed. He bowed to Zhao Junchen and said: "Wu Rongde, a common man, pays homage to Mr. Zhao. Today, the common people are blind and have offended Mr. Zhao. This is all the fault of the common people. Please invite Mr. Zhao."
Your Excellency, please forgive me for being young and careless, and I will never dare to do it again in the future."
The tone was smooth and smooth, but lacked sincerity, as if he were reciting an account book, making Wu Youzhen glare again.
On the other side, as soon as Wu Rongde finished speaking, Cao Wenbin also took the opportunity to say: "Master Zhao, this Wu Rongde is my nephew. The lower official has already heard about the conflict between him and Master Zhao today. It is indeed all his fault.
Mr. Zhao, please rest assured that I will discipline him strictly in the future and will never let him cause trouble outside again."
The implication is that he hopes that Zhao Junchen will not pursue the case for his own sake.
Seeing that Wu Youzhen, Cao Wenbin, and Wu Rongde all had solemn attitudes and serious expressions, Zhao Junchen laughed and said: "You three have misunderstood. I don't want to pursue anything. As I said just now, I sent someone to send you name cards. It's just that To express reconciliation, nothing more."
Having said this, Zhao Junchen suddenly turned his head and glanced at Chen Zhirong.
Chen Zhirong's bright eyes flashed, and she instantly understood Zhao Junchen's meaning.
So, Chen Zhirong suddenly pulled up Su Xiuning and Cui Qianxue who were standing aside, and said with a smile: "Sister Su, sister Cui, I suddenly discovered that there is a rouge shop next to Zhiweixuan. Can you accompany me to go shopping?"
After saying that, without waiting for Su Xiuning and Cui Qianxue to agree, Chen Zhirong took the two girls and left.
As a result, everyone has left, and Zhao Junchen can finally talk about the topic!
