Li Ruifu reluctantly asked Li Chenghao for a day off to return to his hometown tomorrow.
He was worried that Li Chenghao misunderstood that he was not interested in work, and even explained the reason for taking leave. He returned to his hometown mainly because he wanted to have a deeper understanding of S.M Company.
When Li Chenghao heard this reason, he never thought about where Li Ruifu's hometown was or what method he would use to understand S.M Company in depth.
That evening
Li Chenghao went to the Hyundai Department Store alone.
After buying gifts, he went to Aquafield again, which lasted no more than five minutes. Obviously, he did not choose to enjoy the massage service tonight.
December 17th at 9:20 in the morning
Lee Sung-ho took a flight from Seoul to Daegu from Gimpo Airport and landed at Daegu International Airport at 10:35 a.m.
The new president of the CJ Group CheilJedang Daegu Food Factory picked him up at the airport, and then drove Lee Sung-ho to a residential apartment next to the Sincheon River in Sinam-dong.
At eleven o'clock, Li Chenghao arrived downstairs at Pei Zhengxian's house.
The new president of the food factory trotted open the trunk to help Li Chenghao get the prepared gifts.
"Go and do your work, thank you for your hard work"
The president bent down at a 90-degree angle to watch Li Chenghao enter the apartment. After getting in the car, he muttered: "Master Nim, what are you doing here? Is there anyone important living here?"
at home
Bae Zhengxian is instructing Pei Zhuxi to clean: "Juxi, you can't even clean?"
"Dad, aren't I cleaning now?"
"It's impossible for you to get into Mr. Li's eyes after fooling around like this."
Pei Zhuxi was instantly excited: "Why is it impossible? Oppa Ruifu liked me very much before."
"That was when you were ten years old. You were indeed very well-behaved at that time, but now..."
in the kitchen
Pei Zhengxian's wife said loudly: "Father and daughter, please stop arguing. The guests will be arriving soon. Are the fruits and pastries ready?"
The words just fell
"Ding dong"
doorbell rings
Pei Zhengxian slowly stood up from the sofa and muttered: "This old man Li didn't even say he would come over and chat with me earlier."
Pei Zhuxi moved faster than Bae Zhengxian. She rushed to the entrance and said, "Dad, I'm going to open the door. It must be Ruifu Oppa and the others."
"Kacha"
After unscrewing the door lock, Pei Zhuxi couldn't wait to look out the door. The words "Rif Oppa" came to her lips, but when she saw clearly the person standing at the door, she froze in place.
"Hello"
After being stunned for a few seconds, Pei Zhuxi politely bowed and returned the greeting: "Hello."
The person standing at the door was not the Rev Oppa family as Bae Zhuxi thought, but Li Chenghao who was holding many gifts in his hands.
Poking out his head and taking a look, Pei Zhuxi looked at Li Chenghao: "Did President Nim come alone? Where is Unnie?"
In her mind, when Li Chenghao appeared at the door of her house, Bae Zhuhyun should be beside him.
After raising the gift bag, Li Chenghao replied: "Can't I come alone?"
Bae Zhuxi quickly moved out of the way and explained: "That's not what I meant. It's just that I thought President Nim would come back from Seoul with Oni. It turns out that's not the case."
In front of the living room
Pei Zhengxian heard the conversation at the entrance and laughed happily when he knew that Li Chenghao had arrived: "Is it Chenghao? Hahahaha, that brat is sensible and knew to come over earlier to chat with me."
Taking off his shoes, Li Chenghao looked at Bae Zhengxian walking towards him: "Happy birthday, uncle"
"Of course I'm happy that you're here."
As Li Chenghao entered the house, his wife from the kitchen also came out. She looked at the gift bag in Li Chenghao's hand and said politely: "Chenghao, coming to our house for dinner is already the best gift. Why waste money on it?"
"
Li Chenghao handed the gift bag to Bae Zhengxian's wife: "Auntie, these are all things to eat. There are Korean beef, ribs, and fruits. I thought everyone could eat them, so I brought them down. By the way, there is also a bottle of the food I had last time.
I agreed with my uncle about the Chinese Maotai liquor.”
Pei Zhengxian was so happy. He just mentioned it casually when he was drinking in the tent carriage that day. Unexpectedly, Li Chenghao still remembered it and brought it down today.
"You really understand me, come and smoke"
Li Chenghao was not polite. He took the cigarette and did not light it. Instead, he stood there and said loudly: "Uncle, I haven't given you your birthday gift yet. Please wait a moment."
He took out a golden envelope from the inside pocket of his coat.
Pei Zhengxian took the envelope and said politely: "What kind of gift do you want to give? It's just a normal birthday. Is it a cash check inside that I can fill in the number myself?"
While talking, Pei Zhengxian opened the envelope.
When the stack of aquafield massage vouchers appeared in front of Pei Zhengxian's eyes, the surrounding air became quiet.
Bae Zhengxian glanced at his wife subconsciously, and Li Chenghao explained in a panic: "Hey, I didn't prepare for this, it doesn't matter. If my uncle goes to Seoul in the future, he can go to this shop for massage, and my aunt will also go to the spa together.
, the service in this store is very good.”
Pei Zhengxian bit his back teeth and said with a smile: "Chenghao, I really thank you."
Putting aside the joke, Li Chenghao took out the real gift from his outer pocket and handed a delicate small box to Pei Zhengxian: "If uncle doesn't like the massage voucher, you can give it to your friends. This is the real gift."
Just the box containing the gift felt very high-end. Bae Zhengxian's wife quickly said: "Chenghao, can we accept such an expensive gift?"
Li Chenghao motioned to Bae Zhengxian to open the box.
Pei Zhuxi also came up and stared at the gift box in Pei Zhengxian's hand.
After opening it, a gorgeous and shiny watch was lying in the gift box. At just one glance, I could tell that this watch must be expensive.
"Cheng Hao"
Li Chenghao took out his left wrist: "Uncle, I bought the same watch as me, so we can be regarded as people wearing couple's watches."
Li Chenghao solved the problem of gift price very well. Although he and Bae Zhengxian were not lovers, Li Chenghao's original intention of buying this gift was to relieve the recipient of the gift from too much pressure.
With a big hug, Bae Zhengxian said sincerely: "Thank you, you brat is indeed one of the best-looking people in Seoul. He understands what I, the best-looking person in Daegu, like."
Laughing loudly, Bae Zhengxian immediately put on his watch and took Li Chenghao to the living room to smoke and chat.
in the kitchen
Pei Zhuxi scanned the nameplate in the gift with her mobile phone. When she saw the price of the watch, her eyes widened and she covered her mouth. After a while, she said to her mother beside her: "Mom, do you know how much the watch dad received?"
Pei Zhengxian’s wife probably knew that it was expensive, but she didn’t know the specific amount.
Pei Zhuxi said hesitantly: "That watch sells for 710 million yuan."
"How many?"
living room
Both Li Chenghao and Bae Zhengxian, who were smoking, heard the exclamations coming from the kitchen.
Pei Zhengxian immediately realized the situation and asked Li Chenghao in a low voice: "How much does this watch cost?"
Li Chenghao said casually: "It's very cheap, hundreds of thousands of yuan."
"real?"
"Well, it's a fake. Let's not talk about it for now. Today I am ready to drink with my uncle until the end. Don't let my uncle slip away in the middle of the drink."
Pei Zhengxian waved his hand boldly: "Flee? Today I want you to see my true drinking capacity."
"Ding dong"
The doorbell rings again
A beautiful figure jumped out of the kitchen and flew directly to the entrance.
Pei Zhengxian blew out a puff of smoke: "This girl's favorite brother since childhood is here. He is our old neighbor. He moved to another apartment the year before last. We get together every year on my birthday. This year, my old neighbor's son who went to study abroad also came back.
