"Chairman Zhong, are all the descendants of our Nanjiang University aristocratic families here today?" Xu Xiaobei asked.
When people like Xu Xiaobei came to Qiantang, in addition to studying, they naturally also wanted to make friends with Qiantang aristocratic families and local powerful people.
"Pretty much, except for a few facts that can't come." Zhong Chen pondered for a moment as he spoke, seeming a little embarrassed.
Xu Xiaobei noticed it and said, "If Chairman Zhong has something to say, you might as well say it directly."
Zhong Chen said: "Originally there was one person who had to come. She is the school beauty of our school. In our school, she is top-notch in terms of appearance, ability, popularity and family background, but..."
"Who?" Xu Xiaobei immediately became interested.
"Lin Manqing, the eldest daughter of the Lin family in Hecheng, was admitted last year and is now a sophomore."
"The Lin family in Hecheng is the Lin family that is currently in a business war with the Yuan family?"
"Yes."
Xu Xiaobei nodded and asked, "What did you just say?"
Zhong Chen said: "I have tried my best to invite you, but Miss Lin made a lot of excuses, and she just doesn't want to come."
Xu Xiaobei didn't think much about it and said, "If you don't want to come, don't come. Maybe something is really wrong with me."
"What can be the matter? She has already reported to school today, and we were discussing the work of the student union together in the afternoon. She was supposed to be one of the hosts today. It is such an honor for us that you, Mr. Xu, came to Nanjiang, but she didn't come. It's simply a shame.
Shameless!" Zhong Chen looked filled with indignation.
Instead, Xu Xiaobei persuaded him: "Forget it, didn't you just say that Mr. Yuan arranged this game? The Lin family and the Yuan family are at war, so it's normal not to come."
Zhong Chen said: "Master Xu, you think of people too kindly. Mr. Yuan is a low-key person. He has made so many arrangements, and no one except me knows about it. This Lin Manqing, even if he doesn't come, he still speaks rudely.
!”
"Is he being rude?" Xu Xiaobei frowned, "Why is he being rude?"
Zhong Chen hesitated and said: "She said, aren't you just a Dandy from Jiangdong? When you get to Nanjiang, the dragon will be coiled up and the tiger will be lying down. In the eyes of others, you are Mr. Xu, but in her eyes, you are just a junior disciple."
.”
After Zhong Chen finished speaking, he peeked at Xu Xiaobei. Seeing Xu Xiaobei's face darken, he thought that he was still a bit tender after all.
He has seen clearly that Xu Xiaobei does not have a sonorous temper, but when he comes to Nanjiang from Jiangdong, he will definitely fight for the children of Jiangdong. This is his weakness.
Seeing this clearly, Zhong Chen continued to add fuel to the fire: "Lin Manqing has always been arrogant and has his sights set high. This is understandable. After all, people have what they want, so how can they like us. Today I originally wanted to give
Give her a chance to get in touch with you, Mr. Xu. I think of the Xu family in Jiangdong, what a family background you have, and Mr. Xu is such a talented person, she won’t be able to look down on you anymore. Unexpectedly, she said that the Dandy from Jiangdong is not as good as her.
Fiancé just in case."
Xu Xiaobei finally changed his color and said angrily: "Who is his fiancé?"
"Hey, he just came from a rags-to-riches family and joined the Lin family to become his future son-in-law. Now he's very arrogant!" Zhong Chen said, "My surname is Li. I think his name is... Li Muchen."
Xu Xiaobei drained the glass of wine in one gulp and said bitterly: "Hmph, one day, I'm going to meet this Li Muchen!"
Seeing that his goal was achieved, Zhong Chen stopped continuing the topic and said, "Master Xu, let's go sit over there. There will be a program arranged by Young Master Yuan later."
Today he has basically completed the tasks assigned by Yuan Shijie, and has established a relationship with Mr. Xu from Jiangdong. From the current point of view, Xu Xiaobei is very easy to get along with, and it is not difficult to take advantage of him as long as he uses some tricks.
With the help of the Yuan family in Qiantang and the Xu family in Jiangdong, Zhong Chen felt that the rise of the Zhong family was inevitable.
At this moment, he received a call from Lin Manqing.
Zhong Chen was slightly surprised to learn that Lin Manqing was willing to attend the orientation party.
But as soon as he thought about it, he immediately had an idea.
He first called Yuan Shijie. After getting approval, he found Xu Xiaobei and said:
"Master Xu, the more I think about it, the angrier I am. We can't just let it go. In this way, you wait here, and I'll call Lin Manqing here now. Oh no, please come. Anyway, today, even if you ask me
Kneel down for her, and I admit it. I must stand up for Young Master Xu today."
Xu Xiaobei frowned and said, "No need. I'm from Jiangdong. It's my first day in Qiantang. There's no need to do this. If I want to regain my place, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
Zhong Chenshu said: "Mr. Xu, you are the measure of the prime minister, but I can't. Just because you are from Jiangdong, we should fulfill our friendship as landlords. Mr. Xu, please don't worry about this matter. I will come as soon as I can."
"
After that, regardless of what happened to Xu Xiaobei, he left the Lakeside Club.
A middle-aged man in the corner came over to Xu Xiaobei and asked quietly: "Master, I heard what you just said. The attitude of this person named Zhong is too flattering. Master, please be careful."
Xu Xiaobei nodded and said: "I know, this person is not a good friend. But on my first day in Qiantang, I can't lose the face of our Jiangdong people. Even if that woman comes, if she doesn't come today, I really have to go and pay her respects."
, and his rag-picking fiancé.”
The middle-aged man frowned and wanted to say something, but probably because of his status, he finally didn't say anything.
Lin Manqing took a taxi and arrived at the entrance of the Lakeside Club.
Zhong Chen had been waiting there for a long time, diligently opened the car door for Lin Manqing, and also paid for her car.
Lin Manqing said that he had already paid.
Zhong Chen said: "Oh Manqing, you are finally here. If you don't come, I don't know what to do."
Lin Manqing said in surprise: "What can trouble you, the Chairman of the Student Union?"
Zhong Chen said: "You don't know, we can't afford to offend the master who came today! He is the boss of Jiangdong, the son of the fierce tiger Xu Tong. Mr. Xu asked to see you by name. I heard that you didn't come, so he was inside
He’s furious!”
Lin Manqing frowned and said, "Why is he seeing me? I don't know him."
"My Miss Lin, don't you know that you are famous? You are the school beauty of our school and the eldest daughter of the No. 1 family in Hecheng. If you don't come to the welcome party for Xu Xiaobei, of course he will be angry.
He also said that we Nanjiang people look down on their Jiangdong children, and that you have found a rag-picking fiancé and you are going to cause trouble for your fiancé!"
Lin Manqing was fine at first, but when she heard the words "rag-picking fiancé", her face was instantly covered with a layer of frost.
"Hmph, I want to see what the son of the Jiangdong Tiger is so great about! I am a tiger, but my son is a straw bag!"
