After a few words at the wine table, Yaoyang and Huo Jingliang formed a cooperation. In the short term, it was Huo Jingliang who brought Yaoyang to make money. However, Huo Jingliang was very optimistic about Yaoyang and believed that this investment would definitely get rich returns. Sooner or later, Yaoyang could lead Yaoyang.
Make a lot of money yourself.
Just like this Feng Group incident, Huo Jingliang earned more than a year's income in just a few days.
With this amount alone, Huo Jingliang already felt that letting Yaoyang make some money with him would not be a loss.
With the cooperation, the atmosphere at the wine table became better. Ding Shanben was simply happy for Yaoyang, Zhan Mizi was ecstatic, Yaoyang and Huo Jingliang each gained something and were in a good mood, and Feng Qianshan was deeply grateful.
In less than half an hour, before even taking a few bites of the food, the bottom of the four bottles of red wine was gone.
This situation is really beyond Feng Qianshan’s expectation!
After all, in the upper class, when eating and drinking, they only have a small taste of the wine. The so-called "do not return until you are drunk" is the job of the boss.
Feng Qianshan prepared a total of five bottles of good wine. Depending on the situation, it was totally not enough!
"Mr. Huo, Sir Lei, this young master, Zhan Mizi, I'm sorry, I'll excuse you for a moment and go to the bathroom!"
Feng Qianshan has been in business for many years and has good adaptability. He stood up and said.
"Mr. Feng is free!"
Everyone nodded, but none of them regarded Feng Qianshan as one of their own, and spoke more politely.
Bang...
The door to the private room was opened, and a huge noise came from outside: there were many and chaotic tones, including applause, cheers, and chatter.
"kindness?"
Huo Jingliang frowned slightly and said with some dissatisfaction:
"What the hell is going on in this Queen's Restaurant? Why is it so out of style tonight? Let everyone in."
Yaoyang glanced outside and said with a smile:
"I think the soundproofing of the private rooms in this restaurant is excellent! Moreover, doesn't Mr. Huo think that it is precisely because of this contrast that we appear to be gentle?"
"Well……"
Huo Jingliang was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said:
"Hahaha, yes, Yaoyangzi, you are right. Having style often requires support from others. If not, how can we show that we have quality?"
"Ah!"
After hearing Huo Jingliang's words, Ding Shanben and Zhan Mizai looked at each other, shook their heads and chuckled:
"Huo Jingliang is really a strange person. In some aspects, he is extremely grand, heroic and coercive. In some aspects, he is also very stingy. He doesn't like it even if someone makes the banquet louder."
"Come on, Zhan Mizi, let's drink again!"
After a smile, the friendly atmosphere continued, and several people clinked glasses with each other and started chatting.
This conversation lasted for about twenty minutes, but the strange thing was that Feng Qianshan hadn't come back yet.
"What the hell is this old Feng doing, taking so long to go to the bathroom?" Huo Jingliang looked at the gold watch in his hand, and after drinking a glass with Yaoyang, he was a little dissatisfied with the alcohol.
But this time, even Ding Shanben felt that Feng Qianshan was a little rude, and frowned slightly:
"Yes, Mr. Feng, what took you so long? Did something happen?"
"Xianben, stop thinking nonsense. This is the Queen's Restaurant. No one can eat here. What can happen to Mr. Feng!"
Yaoyang shook his head, raised his glass, pointed to the opened door of the box, and said:
"Look, that's not coming back."
Everyone's eyes were focused on the door of the box. Sure enough, the door was pushed open. Feng Qianshan, who had a slight sweat stain on his forehead, came back and said with an apologetic look:
"I'm sorry, everyone, I met some friends below and chatted a little more!"
"It's okay. It's human nature to chat when you meet friends. Mr. Feng, please sit down."
Ding Shanben has a good-natured character and said without caring.
That's not the case with Huo Jingliang.
Huo Jingliang was very proud of himself, and in his opinion, this time he was extremely kind to Feng and helped Feng Qianshan a lot.
It's good now. Feng Qianshan met a few friends casually, chatted for a long time before coming back, and left his benefactor here. Is this okay?
Feng Qianshan had just sat down with a smile. Huo Jingliang, who felt that he had lost a bit of face, immediately got angry and said in a faint voice:
"I don't know if you, Lao Feng, have any friends who are so great that they can leave me, Huo Jingliang, alone here for a long time to chat with them first!"
Well……
Feng Qianshan was startled, with a slightly troubled expression on his face, as if he didn't want to answer, or didn't know how to answer.
"What? Is it that I, Huo Jingliang, don't deserve to know, or that I don't deserve to know you?"
Huo Jingliang became even more unhappy. He asked whether the other party dared to answer, and his voice became colder.
Feng Qianshan was startled and did not dare to hide it anymore, so he immediately responded:
"Mr. Huo, it's Mr. Ye!"
"Mr. Ye? There are many gentlemen named Ye in Hong Kong Zong City. Who is Mr. Ye?"
Huo Jingliang held up a glass of red wine and didn't bother to ask any more questions.
Facing Huo Jingliang's intimidating inquiry, Feng Qianshan felt sweat dripping from his head even though he was more than ten years older than Huo Jingliang. He felt huge pressure and said carefully:
"It's Mr. Ye Xiaoli!"
"Ye Xiaoli?"
When Huo Jingliang heard this name, a hint of cruelty flashed in his eyes, and he said in an extremely calm tone:
"Oh, it turns out to be Howard. He and I have been friends for a long time! No wonder it's so noisy down there. Since it's Howard holding a big banquet, it's not surprising!"
As he spoke, Huo Jingliang stared at Feng Qianshan with eyes like a wolf, and continued:
"What kind of banquet is Howard holding down there? His birthday?"
Gudu...
Feng Qianshan swallowed his saliva and secretly hated himself for being so stupid. He went out to order some good wine. Even if he had lost some face before, he could have asked the waiter to bring it to him.
But when Huo Jingliang pressed him to this point, he had to bite the bullet and answer:
"It's Mr. Ye's wedding anniversary!"
Snapped……
Hearing this, Huo Jingliang's face darkened, and he put the red wine glass on the table, causing the red wine to overflow and stains to splash everywhere.
Seeing Huo Jingliang's appearance, Ding Shanben, who knew the reason, quickly spoke and shouted carefully:
"Uncle Shi!"
Next to Yaoyang, Zhan Mizai also did his homework. He was afraid that Yaoyang would not know the situation, so he whispered in his ear:
"Yip Xiaoli is a real estate tycoon in Hong Kong Comprehensive Market. The Mingda Group he founded ranks among the top ten in the real estate industry in Hong Kong Comprehensive Market."
"I heard that Ye Xiaoli was eager for quick success when he was young. Although the industries were different, he often had conflicts with Mr. Huo. Now that he is middle-aged, he wants to establish himself and have a good reputation after getting rich."
"Ye Xiaoli's current wife was once Mr. Huo's wife and the biological mother of Mr. Huo's only daughter!"
"Everyone in the Hong Kong Comprehensive City business community knows that Mr. Huo and Ye Xiaoli have a very bad relationship. It can be said that their hatred is as deep as the sea. Either you die or I die."
Yaoyang nodded repeatedly after hearing this. In fact, he knew Huo Jingliang's deeds very well, including his family.
Huo Jingliang was a man of great power in his life, but the only thing he suffered a huge loss from was being forced into a corner.
It is said that he and his wife both studied in the UK, supported each other there, and both of them had a good impression. Finally, they got married and gave birth to a daughter, Huo Xixian.
The two parties can be said to be a couple in need.
After returning to Hong Kong Comprehensive Market, Huo Jingliang's career grew bigger and bigger, and he made the mistake that many men make, playing around with women outside.
At the same time, his wife worked as Ye Xiaoli's assistant in the Mingda Group, and the two fell in love with each other.
It is not difficult to imagine that Huo Jingliang divorced his wife and his wife married Ye Xiaoli!
This incident can be said to be the biggest failure in Huo Jingliang's life, and Huo Jingliang regarded it as a great shame and humiliation.
Whenever there is an opportunity, Huo Jingliang would crazily target the Mingda Group, and he would not mind even if he "hurts others with his own conduct".
However, the real estate business has developed rapidly in recent years. As an industrialist, Ye Xiaoli blocked the targets of Huo Jingliang, a big speculator, and fought with him frequently.
The two of them have been fighting each other for nearly ten years, and their grudges are so deep that they can no longer be resolved.
It was originally an excellent private banquet, but after Feng Qianshan left and returned, the situation changed drastically.
Huo Jingliang's willful anger made Feng Qianshan frightened, Ding Shanben worried, and Yaoyang and Zhan Mizai were greatly affected even though they were fine.
After a long time, Huo Jingliang put a smile on his face again, picked up the red wine on the table, stood up and said:
"Since it's Howard's wedding anniversary, as an old friend, I have to go have a drink with him and congratulate him!"
Yaoyang saw this, picked up a glass of red wine, stood up immediately, and said with a smile:
"Mr. Huo, if you don't mind, why don't I go down with you? Since our two families are already in a cooperative relationship, no matter what Huo Jingliang wants to do, I will definitely advance and retreat together."
"I just don't know if Mr. Ye would welcome a nobody like me!"
"oh?"
Huo Jingliang looked at Yaoyang, a flash of shock flashed in his eyes, and he couldn't help but say:
"Yao Yangzi, have you heard of Howard's Ming University?"
"One of the top ten real estate groups in Hong Kong Comprehensive City. Although I have no experience, I have heard of it!"
Yaoyang nodded, and after saying this, he immediately asked:
"So what? I'm a police officer!"
"I have long heard that real estate developers in Hong Kong Comprehensive City have many illegal practices in property repossession. It is not uncommon for real estate developers to collude with triads. A group as big as Mingda, as a senior member of the Mong Kok Anti-Gangster Group,
Inspector, of course it is necessary for me to get to know the senior management of their group first, so as to avoid dealing with the wrong person in the future, which would be bad."
hiss……
Feng Qianshan was speechless after hearing Yaoyang's words.
With these words, Yaoyang simply said clearly:
If Huo Jingliang said a word, he would be willing to help deal with the Mingda Group.
What is meant by "illegal property repossession"? To put it bluntly, it means that real estate developers pay people on the street to scare the owners who refuse to move.
The police generally pay little attention to such matters.
After all, even if you know it's a real estate developer who is doing this kind of intimidation, it doesn't matter if there is no evidence or evidence, you can't control it at all.
Yaoyang just expressed this attitude, if possible, he would take care of it.
It can be said that it is extremely difficult for a giant, a top real estate developer in Hong Kong Comprehensive City, and a senior inspector in Yaoyang District to make such a statement.
Zhan Mizi didn't say anything, picked up a glass of red wine and stood up. It was obvious that no matter what Yaoyang did, he would follow.
A flash of admiration flashed across Ding Shanben's face, and he also picked up a glass of red wine and stood up. Although Ding Shanben was a good person, he was educated by his father, which was actually an education of loyalty.
In his opinion, Ye Xiaoli was indeed a bit immoral, and seducing his second sister-in-law was a taboo in the world.
Besides, he was not familiar with Ye, but Huo Jingliang had a very good relationship with his father. Under such circumstances, if he vented his anger with Huo Jingliang, I believe his father would support him.
Moreover, Differ Group is not afraid of Mingda Group at all. The industries are completely different. If the two companies really fight, we don’t know who will win and who will lose.
To put it bluntly, Ye Xiaoli didn't dare to do anything to Ding Shanben, and he didn't even know how to hold a grudge.
Huo Jingliang has been in the Hong Kong Comprehensive Market for many years and has a very clear understanding of everyone's thoughts and strengths.
Ding Shanben and Zhan Mizai got up and prepared to go downstairs with him. He was not surprised at all, but he felt extremely heart-warmed by Yaoyang's attitude.
"Hahaha……"
Patting Yaoyang's high shoulder, Huo Jingliang said with emotion:
"Okay, Yaoyangzi, don't worry, if I, Huo Jingliang, are around for one day, if someone in the business world wants to touch you, I will definitely make him regret it!"
"Let's go down together."
After saying that, Huo Jingliang took the lead, followed by Yaoyang, Ding Shanben, and Zhan Mizai and walked out of the box with red wine glasses.
It is not good to keep Feng Qianshan and follow him, and it is not good not to follow him.
After sitting there for a long time, he just picked up a glass of red wine and followed suit.
He finally figured it out. If he offended Ye Xiaoli, he would be targeted by the other party and lose some money, but it would not shake the foundation of the Feng family.
If he offends Huo Jingliang, Huo Jingliang is half a gangster and will really deal with him at all costs.
Especially now, 30% of Feng's stock is still held by Huo Jingliang. It will not be difficult for Huo Jingliang to touch Feng's.
Especially now, 30% of Feng's stock is still held by Huo Jingliang. It will not be difficult for Huo Jingliang to touch Feng's.
Furthermore, Huo Jingliang and others had just helped him. As a Chaozhou native, Feng Qianshan made him ungrateful. He really couldn't do it.
The second floor of Queen's Restaurant.
This is a huge banquet hall, different from the private rooms on the third floor. Like other restaurants, this is a place for wedding banquets and wedding banquets for guests.
But to hold a banquet here, I heard that even having money is not enough. You have to have reputation and status.
The owner of the Queen's Restaurant is an old British nobleman with the title of earl. He no longer values so-called money.
He is committed to making his hotel a status symbol.
Therefore, when a banquet is held at the Queen's Restaurant, guests will be selected.
It is said that if you want to hold a banquet here, you must make a reservation one month in advance and submit the list of banquet initiators to the hotel for review.
The hotel has its own method to determine whether you are qualified to have a banquet here. Finally, the hotel will give a response as to whether it will allow you to have a banquet.
It is precisely because of such unkind rules that the Queen's Restaurant is known as the "Lady of the Far East" and is sought after by countless dignitaries.
Ye Xiaoli, one of the top ten real estate developers in Hong Kong Comprehensive City, is certainly qualified to hold a banquet at the Queen Restaurant, so that night, this place belongs to Ye Xiaoli.
In the magnificent lobby on the second floor, countless guests were dressed in formal attires, and bigwigs from all walks of life gathered, either socializing or exchanging pleasantries. Everyone seemed very happy, at least on the surface.
Ye Xiaoli is a little older than Huo Jingliang. He looks to be in his fifties. He is not tall, but looks stable and extraordinary.
With a smile on his face, he was held by the wrist by his wife, holding a wine glass, and walked in the lobby, constantly greeting the guests.
"Hahaha, Brother Deng, you are a little late. What have you been busy with recently?"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Ye, I am indeed delayed by something. What can I be busy with other than the company's matters. Mr. Ye, Mrs. Ye, congratulations!"
"Thanks!"
"Excuse me. Hi, Brother Wang. I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you? How are you doing lately? I heard that your company has developed a new project in Southeast Asia. How is it? Do you count me in?"
"Haha, if Mr. Ye is willing to invest, our Wang family will definitely welcome it. Come on, Mr. Ye, Mrs. Ye, congratulations, I'd like to toast you!"
"Thanks!"
Just when Ye Xiaoli was working with his wife to greet the guests and liven up the atmosphere.
The door to the hall on the second floor was opened, and the figures of Huo Jingliang, Yaoyang and others appeared, walking boldly, and after a short pause, they immediately walked towards this side.
"Well? Why is he here?"
Seeing Huo Jingliang, Ye Xiaoli and his wife looked at each other, and they both saw doubts in each other's eyes.
But the next second, both parties understood tacitly from their eyes that Huo Jingliang came uninvited, and his significant other did not invite the other party.
In Hong Kong Comprehensive Market, although Huo Jingliang is not the richest, he must be among the top arrogant rich people.
Almost all people from all walks of life, even those who are slightly famous, know Huo Jingliang.
At a banquet of Ye Xiaoli's level, more than 70% of the people knew Huo Jingliang.
Moreover, these people are also very aware of the grudges between Huo Jingliang and Ye Xiaoli.
Seeing that Huo Jingliang also came to the banquet today, many guests could not help but lower their voices and looked at Ye Xiaoli and his wife, their eyes full of gossip.
"Hahaha……"
Huo Jingliang, Yaoyang and his party entered the hall, led by Huo Jingliang. When they saw Ye Xiaoli, they walked over with a big smile.
Ye Xiaoli also put on a smile, patted his wife's hand, and greeted her at the same time.
"Old friend, why are you here? I don't seem to have sent you an invitation!"
Ye Xiaoli was still middle-aged at this time, and he was also very tough. When facing this guy who had deep hatred, he was not polite at all. Although he smiled broadly, his tone was tough.
Mrs. Ye was more aware of etiquette. She looked at Ye Xiaoli with some reproach at first and said:
"Howard!"
Immediately, he looked at Huo Jingliang with a smile and said:
"Dacid, I really didn't expect you to come over. By the way, Helen is over there too!"
Facing Ye Xiaoli, Huo Jingliang's momentum was not weak at all, and he laughed and said:
"Hahaha, Brother Ye's banquet, even if there are no invitations, I still want to come to congratulate you. We didn't invite so many people. Brother Ye won't be sad about the drinks, right? If that's the case, the drinks tonight
, I, Huo Jingliang, paid for it for you, which can be regarded as a congratulations to my brother on his tenth wedding anniversary!"
Then, Huo Jingliang immediately looked at Mrs. Ye and said with a smile:
"Oh? Is my daughter here too? Hahaha, okay, my daughter is really like me, she misses family ties! After all, it is a commemorative day for the family, an important day."
"Depend on!"
Huo Jingliang's words could be heard behind Ding Shanben, Zhan Mizai, and Feng Qianshan speechless. What kind of congratulation is this? It's completely a provocation:
"What is a family anniversary? It's almost obvious that Ye Xiaoli picked up worn shoes. Mrs. Ye is his ex-wife."
"As for Huo Jingliang paying for the drinks, it's even more bizarre. If Ye Xiaoli really agrees, he will lose all face."
Regarding Huo Jingliang's aggressive and obviously trouble-seeking attitude, Ye Xiaoli took a deep breath and said:
"Dacid, some things have passed away. Everyone has their own choice. Isn't it too rude of you to hold on to it?"
"No manners? No way!"
Huo Jingliang looked surprised, shook his head and said:
"Who in the entire Hong Kong Comprehensive Market doesn't know that I, Huo Jingliang, is the most elegant person. But you, Howard, are engaged in real estate. In recent years, housing prices have been rising higher and higher. I don't know how many people have worked hard all their lives and cannot afford to buy a house. Speaking of which, it is
Who has no grace?"
"Dacid!"
Mrs. Ye frowned, caught in the middle, and looked at Huo Jingliang with some reproach. For a moment, the situation was very embarrassing.
"daddy!"
At this time, I heard a call and saw a young, beautiful, noble and refined woman walking over.
She wore a white evening dress with a simple cut, which was simple and elegant. It was completely different from some celebrities who exposed themselves in various ways for the sake of eye-catching effect.
She was wearing an evening dress, with long white gloves on her exposed arms, giving people the feeling of a loyal princess.
At this moment, there was a hint of anxiety on her face, and she walked directly in front of Huo Jingliang and separated him from Ye Xiaoli.
The visitor was quite familiar to Yaoyang. He had just met her a few days ago, Huo Jingliang's biological daughter, Huo Xixian.
Huo Xixian tonight is really beautiful!
When Huo Jingliang saw Huo Xixian, he handed the wine glass to Zhan Mizi behind him, lightly grabbed Huo Xixian's hand with both hands, and said loudly:
"Daughter, you came to your father's company yesterday. You didn't know about your mother's happy event without informing your father. Fortunately, your father was also having dinner at the Queen's Restaurant tonight, so he came over in time to congratulate you! It's a pity that I didn't buy any gifts, so I could only go empty-handed.
Already."
puff……
Hearing Huo Jingliang's words, Ding Shanben behind him couldn't help but almost laughed out loud.
Huo Jingliang had such a venomous tongue. Every word he spoke pierced his heart, as if he was afraid that others would not know that Mrs. Ye was his ex-wife.
Dad doesn't know what mom's happy event is. According to Huo Jingliang's words, people who don't know may think that he and Mrs. Ye are the real couple.
Ye Xiaoli's face changed after hearing this, and he wanted to scold Huo Jingliang:
"Huo..."
Fortunately, Mrs. Ye had quick eyesight and quick hands. She gently pulled Ye Xiaoli and said first:
"Howard, Lao He was looking for you earlier. Come on, let's go over and say hello!"
Ye Xiaoli took a deep breath. After all, he still knew that today was a happy event for his family. If it was ruined by Huo Jingliang, he would definitely be embarrassed.
"good!"
Responding to this word, Ye Xiaoli said:
"Dacid, I won't greet you anymore, you can do what you want, excuse me!"
After saying this, Ye Xiaoli asked Mrs. Ye and turned around to leave.
"Hahaha, some people are still talking about being graceful in front of me, Huo Jingliang. Now everyone knows, everyone has seen who has no grace!"
Huo Jingliang laughed, looking happy that he had the upper hand.
Yaoyang was next to Huo Jingliang with sharp eyes, but he found that Huo Jingliang's eyes never left Mrs. Ye's back, showing nostalgia, resentment and other emotions in his eyes.
Involuntarily, Yaoyang reached out and patted Huo Jingliang's shoulder.
But when he reached out, what Yaoyang touched was not the suit on Huo Jingliang's body, but his other hand.
The owner of that hand was startled. Taking advantage of the situation, his eyes met with Yaoyang's, and his cheeks instantly turned red:
"Brother Yaoyang, I didn't expect to see you here!" It turns out that the owner of that hand is none other than Huo Xixian. Huo Xixian knows Huo Jingliang better than anyone else, and of course he knows that Huo Jingliang speaks of authority and has always had affection for his mother in his heart.
Like today, when my mother is celebrating her tenth wedding anniversary, the protagonist is not Huo Jingliang. He must be very sad. He reaches out to comfort Huo Jingliang.
I just didn't expect that someone would agree with me and take action together.
Facing Huo Xixian, Yaoyang smiled slightly, nodded and said:
"Yes, I happened to be having dinner with Mr. Huo on the third floor tonight. I heard that there was a big scene down there, so I asked Mr. Huo to take me to see it. Helen, you look beautiful tonight!"
"Thanks!"
Huo Xixian lowered his head and said something happy, but his happy expression could not be hidden from Ren He.
"oh?"
When Huo Jingliang saw his daughter's appearance, he immediately broke away from the emotion of the confrontation with Ye Xiaoli and turned to gossip. He looked back at Yaoyang and said:
"Yao Yangzi, you and my daughter have met! That's fine. You young people should be quite bored at this kind of banquet, so why don't you just chat!"
Immediately, Huo Jingliang turned his head and said:
"Xianben, Lao Feng, Zhan Mizi, let's go. I also saw a lot of friends, all of whom are good partners in business. Anyway, it's a place where I belong, so I will take the lead and introduce it to you. I hope you will have more friends in the future.
Let’s cooperate.”
"Thank you Mr. Huo!"
The three of them responded, among them Ding Shanben and Zhan Mizi both winked at Yaoyang Weirdly, followed Huo Jingliang with smiles on their faces.
Huo Jingliang left, deliberately leaving space for Huo Xixian and Yaoyang.
The meaning is self-evident, which makes Huo Xixian shy and a little happy at the same time.
Yaoyang was thick-skinned and would not feel inappropriate. He took the initiative to smile and said:
"Helen, you're not ready to just stand here with me! Many people are looking at us, why don't you go sit over there?"
"ah?"
Huo Xixian couldn't help but look back, and sure enough, many guests were looking this way.
After all, the positions of Yaoyang and Huo Xixian were too exposed. When I looked at the door, I saw them first.
After all, the positions of Yaoyang and Huo Xixian were too exposed. When I looked at the door, I saw them first.
"Okay, Brother Yaoyang, let's go sit over there!"
Huo Xixian was a little embarrassed and nodded in agreement with Yaoyang's suggestion. The two walked to the corner together, where there happened to be two seats. After sitting down, they started chatting.
"Brother Yaoyang, I have read the newspapers this morning. The Central bombing was solved. It was you who led the anti-gangster team in Mong Kok to solve the problem day and night. You are really amazing. Within five days, today is the fifth time.
Oh my god, it’s a full day early!”
Huo Xixian's eyes showed admiration, he looked at Yaoyang and said, his good feelings undisguised.
"Ah!"
Yaoyang chuckled lightly and said:
"Don't all girls like gossip magazines? Do you also like to read current affairs news?"
"Brother Yaoyang, don't underestimate me! I just obtained my lawyer's license this year, and I can start working at any time. As a lawyer, you should care about current affairs."
Huo Xixian responded with words, his delicate little face was very serious.
"Mr. Huo is a celebrity in the financial industry, and he is your only daughter. Don't you plan to inherit your father's business? Why did you choose to be a lawyer?"
Yaoyang asked smoothly.
"I don't have dad's business talent!" Huo Xixian shook his head and responded:
"Besides, being a lawyer has always been my ideal. It's great. I can help many people in need, help the strong and the weak, just like Brother Yaoyang, you can be a policeman!"
"Ah!"
Yaoyang smiled again and shook his head slightly.
"Brother Yaoyang, do you think my ideas are naive?"
Huo Xixian was very smart, he understood immediately and said.
"No, it's just hard to imagine that you are Mr. Huo's daughter!"
Yaoyang joked. He never thought that Huo Xixian was serious and said:
"I was sent to the United States to study since I was a child, and I rarely stayed with my father..."
Yaoyang and Huo Xixian are chatting about life and the past here.
Huo Jingliang, along with Ding Shanben, Zhan Mizai and Feng Qianshan, walked through the banquet hall and felt at ease.
Huo Jingliang really didn't regard himself as an outsider. He was full of momentum and had a loud voice. He greeted many of his friends warmly and introduced them to Ding Shanben and the others.
Only Ding Rongbang could see it, his face was extremely ugly, and Mrs. Ding was also very embarrassed.
Fortunately, this situation did not last long, and ten minutes later, the banquet got down to business.
I saw a guy in a suit and leather shoes as bright as a mirror. He was obviously the master of ceremonies. He held a microphone in his hand and stood in the center of the banquet hall. He spoke through the microphone:
"Quiet, please be quiet!"
The guests in the banquet hall are all successful people. Everyone is familiar with this kind of dinner party and usually participates in it.
After hearing the master of ceremonies speak, everyone was very respectful, quieted down, and all looked at the center stage. "
Ladies and gentlemen, first of all, on behalf of the Mingda Group, I would like to welcome everyone to the 10th wedding anniversary dinner of our Chairman, Mr. Ding Rongbang, and Miss Fang Jianping."
"Here, on behalf of the 5,000 employees of our Mingda Group, I wish Mr. Ding and Miss Fang a long and lasting life..."
Speaking of which, the words of the emcee were not too out of the ordinary, they were almost the same as those of a normal wedding anniversary dinner.
But among the guests, Huo Jingliang was very angry. He was even more angry when he saw Ding Rongbang and Fang Jianping holding hands on stage together and starting to say thank you to the guests.
But this was a serious occasion, and no matter how arrogant Huo Jingliang was, there was nothing he could do.
As he glanced angrily, a woman's figure suddenly caught Huo Jingliang's attention.
The woman looks to be no more than 25 years old. She has a slim and graceful figure. She is bulging where she should be and thin where she should be. She is more graceful and graceful than a fashion model.
And her jewel-like eyes are neither black nor blue, but brown.
In terms of appearance, she is also completely different from the classical and reserved oriental girls, and different from the wild and unrestrained western girls. Between the two, they give people two feelings, but also give people a contradiction that they are neither.
This is a mixed-race woman. The woman is wearing a black evening dress, which exudes a luxurious and elegant temperament. She is holding a stack of exquisite poker cards and playing with them with one hand.
Moreover, this woman seemed to have a lot of airs. Even though Ding Rongbang and his wife were delivering speeches on the stage, she showed no respect at all. Not only did she not listen, she was too lazy to sit at a small table and poured herself a drink.
"is her!"
After taking a closer look at the woman's face, Huo Jingliang's pupils shrank, and he stopped listening to the nonsense of Ding Rongbang and his wife. He walked out of the group of guests in two steps and walked towards the woman.
Ding Shanben, Zhan Mizai and Feng Qianshan were startled, thinking that Huo Jingliang was in a bad mood, so they stopped standing where they were and hurried to follow.
But when they followed a few steps, they discovered that Huo Jingliang was not leaving the banquet hall, but was walking towards a woman.
"What's happening here?"
The three of them were puzzled, and Huo Jingliang's next move shocked them even more.
When Huo Jingliang came to the woman, he looked absolutely serious and said in a very polite tone:
"Miss He, I didn't expect to meet you here!"
"kindness?"
When the woman heard the voice, she raised her head, glanced at Huo Jingliang, and said with a smile:
"Mr. Huo, long time no see." "Yes, we really haven't seen each other since that meeting in Pujiang half a year ago."
Huo Jingliang said politely:
"Does Miss He have something to do when she leaves Pujiang and comes to Hong Kong Comprehensive Market this time? If anything happens, Miss He can tell me Huo Jingliang. If Huo Jingliang can help, he will definitely handle it for Miss He."
hiss……
Seeing Huo Jingliang's attitude, Zhan Mizi and the other three were shocked.
What's going on? Huo Jingliang, who has always been arrogant and domineering, actually seems to be fawning over a young woman.
Pujiang, whose surname is He, is that right?
Zhan Mizai and the others kept guessing, and the results they got were even more shocking.
As we all know, there has always been controversy over who is the richest and most powerful person in Hong Kong Comprehensive Market.
But across the Pujiang River, there is no dispute over the overlord there. Thirty years ago, there was a recognized emperor, Mr. He of Macao.
It is not difficult to guess the identity of a young woman named He who can be treated by Huo Jingliang with such an attitude.
The woman surnamed He didn't seem to care about Huo Jingliang's kindness. Perhaps it was because countless people would please her like this every day.
Her words were not polite at all:
"Mr. Huo, if there is something that I can't solve, it's not convenient for Mr. Huo to solve it. I appreciate Mr. Huo's kindness. I came to Hong Kong Market this time just to relax and have nothing to do."
"Mr. Huo seems to have something on his mind!"
hiss……
Miss He's straightforward words made Ding Shanben and others even more shocked. They all looked at Huo Jingliang, fearing that he wouldn't be able to bear it.
Huo Jingliang seemed to know Miss He's style very well and did not react much. He smiled bitterly and said:
"Miss He has a keen eye. I don't think any man would like to see his ex-wife being so proud at the wedding anniversary banquet!"
"Since you don't like it, why doesn't Mr. Huo stop it?"
Miss He smiled gently and played with the taste.
"Miss He, is there anything you can do?"
Huo Jingliang's eyes lit up and he asked for advice. Miss He did not give a direct answer. She kept playing with the deck of cards with her right hand and said:
"My father often says that whether you are a good person or do good things, you must pay attention to luck and the grasp of chips and odds."
"Mr. He's Huo family and Mr. Ye's Ming University are almost on a par with each other. Over the years, I have heard some of the disputes between the Huo family and Ming University, but they are still the same. In other words, the two sides are "zero to zero"
"The chips are all the same."
"The rest is only chance and luck!"
As she spoke, Miss He stroked it with one hand, and all the cards in her hand were opened: the suits and points were arranged neatly.
"Mr. Huo, how about the probability? Many things cannot be calculated, just like feelings. But luck can be seen immediately."
"A deck of cards, half are big and half are small. I wonder if Mr. Huo is interested in gambling with Mr. Ye?"
"A gamble?"
Huo Jingliang frowned slightly, not quite understanding what Miss He meant.
Miss He smiled charmingly and explained quietly:
"Mr. Huo, there are so many people now. If you and Mr. Ye make a bet openly and openly, not betting on goods or money, but just looking at the fortunes of both parties. As long as Mr. Huo wins, I believe that tonight's wedding anniversary dinner, the protagonist will happen soon.
Changes. Even in the future, Mr. Ye may not hold a banquet for a wedding anniversary again."
"oh?"
Huo Jingliang realized it and his eyes flashed:
"Ms. He means clearly, implying that if Huo Jingliang doesn't like to watch, he will trouble Ye Xiaoli in public, just to play cards. If he wins, even if he doesn't win anything, Ye Xiaoli will lose all his face. As for losing, of course he will
lose face."
However, he really didn’t want to see Ye Xiaoli be proud, so Huo Jingliang couldn’t control that much and said urgently:
"Ms. He, according to my understanding of Ye Xiaoli, he is not a person who likes gambling."
"If there is no bet, how can it be considered gambling? It can only be played for fun! If Mr. Huo wants to play, I can come forward and make arrangements for Mr. Huo."
Miss He smiled slightly and said confidently.
"Okay, then I'll ask Miss He to make arrangements."
Huo Jingliang was overjoyed and nodded immediately.
When Miss He saw Huo Jingliang's promise, she smiled with an unknown meaning, stood up slowly, drank the red wine in her hand, and walked to the central table.
In the entire banquet hall, except for Miss He who was sitting just now and didn't pay much attention to the speeches of Ye Xiaoli and his wife, Yaoyang and Huo Xixian were also chatting enthusiastically here and didn't care about anything else.
It wasn't until the two of them were laughing and joking around, feeling that they had a better understanding of each other, that they suddenly realized that the banquet hall had become extremely quiet.
Looking up, he discovered that at some point, a large table had been added to the center stage. Ye Xiaoli and Huo Jingliang were sitting opposite each other, and there were many people standing behind them.
Under the stage, a group of people were also watching, talking in low voices, and their brows revealed a bit of excitement.
"Brother Yaoyang, what happened?"
Huo Xixian looked like a little girl, confused, and couldn't help but ask.
Yaoyang shook his head, stood up and said:
"I don't know. Let's go and ask someone."
Soon, Huo Xixian came forward and randomly found a guest he knew. The two immediately asked about the result: Daqing was currently performing the "thank you performance" part of the wedding anniversary banquet.
What does this mean?
Banquets held in Hong Kong Comprehensive Market almost always have this link.
In order to express gratitude to the guests for coming, the host performs a symbolic program. For example, at a birthday party, the host often sings a song and plays the piano.
For a wedding anniversary dinner like this, the host and hostess usually dance or something.
But regardless of Ruhe, this kind of performance is almost never seen in all the banquets in Hong Kong Comprehensive Market:
Huo Jingliang and Ye Xiaoli play a performance card game!
This so-called thank you performance can be seen by any fool as a "private grudge". Both parties want to make each other lose face. There is no sense of performance at all.
Moreover, even deaf people have heard about the relationship between Huo Jingliang and Ye Xiaoli, so how could they possibly perform together!
The guests, of course, were looking forward to seeing a good show, but they didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Instead, they took pleasure in the misfortune and looked forward to who would be embarrassed in front of everyone.
"Dad has gone too far!"
After hearing what the guests said, Huo Xixian felt a little angry, frowned slightly, and said.
Undoubtedly, in her opinion, Huo Jingliang was deliberately looking for trouble. "Everyone knows Sima Zhao's heart."
Yaoyang had a different view on this and said:
"Although Mr. Huo has a bad temper, he probably wouldn't have thought of such an idea. There may be some misunderstanding. Helen, let's go up!"
"kindness!"
Huo Xixian nodded and walked to the stage with Yaoyang.
Most of the guests knew Huo Xixian, and the two of them walked onto the stage easily without any hindrance.
"Brother Yaoyang!"
"Yao Yangzi!"
"Helen, come here!"
When they saw the two people on stage, everyone they knew greeted them. Fortunately, Huo Xixian knew almost all the guests.
However, Yaoyang received great attention because of Huo Xixian's relationship.
Especially Fang Jianping, Huo Xixian's biological mother, after looking at Yaoyang carefully, she immediately called Huo Xixian.
Huo Xixian could only look apologetically at Yaoyang, and ran to the opposite side behind Ye Xiaoli and to Fang Jianping.
Yaoyang didn't care, he stood behind Huo Jingliang carelessly, bowed down, and whispered:
"Mr. Huo, what's going on?"
"Hahaha, it's nothing. I'm meeting an old friend. To congratulate him on a good day, I'll perform three card games with him to thank the guests."
Huo Jingliang seemed to be in a very good mood at the moment, biting his cigar and said arrogantly.
While talking, he didn't seem to pay attention to the card game. He seemed to be sure of winning. He turned back to look at Yaoyang and said with a smile:
"How's it going? What did you talk about with Helen?"
"Small talk!"
Yaoyang responded simply. Under the influence of Long Si, the card game began. Although it seemed to have nothing to do with him, Eagle Eye still looked around and observed it.
"kindness?"
Upon this observation, Yaoyang was immediately attracted to the beauty in black eveningwear who was obviously the host and dealer.
It's not that the beauty's appearance is so attractive to Yaoyang, but her slender fingers!
Her fingers were very long and very white, so white that it completely exceeded the normal range and reached a weird white color.
The slight movement of his fingers unconsciously was invisible to others, but Yaoyang could see it clearly:
The deck of cards she held in her hand kept changing, the third card moved to the fourth position, and the fourth card moved to the sixth position.
Of course, this change has always been there, and it is undoubtedly the result of beauty's subconscious manipulation and no intentional action.
But based on this alone, Yaoyang already knows that this is a master, and this card game cannot be fair!
Because the dealer already knows the cards before they are dealt.
To put it bluntly, in this card game, whoever the dealer wants to win will win!
