When Tong Jiangxin and Sun Changning were fighting among themselves, they felt a warm hand on their shoulders, and then a familiar voice came to their ears, "Jiang Xin, have you met a friend?"
Tong Jiangxin looked sideways, and the person who came was none other than McGarlo, who was wearing a decent suit. He had a nice smile on his face and his movements were casual, as if this was how things should be between the two of them.
When Sun Changning saw McGaro, something flashed across his eyes, but his face changed quickly and he said with a smile, "Is this the second son of Mai Dong?"
McGarlo heard the sound and looked towards Sun Changning. Their eyes met. Although McGarlo had a smile on his face, the sharp look in his eyes did not diminish at all. He nodded invisibly, and then
He said, "This is..."
Sun Changning smiled and said, "Haha, I heard that the second young master has just returned from studying abroad. It's okay for me not to recognize him."
After that, he took out his business card from his body and handed it to McGarloh.
McGarlo took it over, glanced at it casually, and then said with a faint smile, "It turns out to be Mr. Sun. Gallo's eyesight is poor and he was far away just now, so he didn't recognize it."
Sun Changning had a smile on his face and said some unnecessary compliments.
During this period, Tong Jiangxin remained silent, and McGaro's arm was always on her shoulders. In this way, he told Sun Changning about the relationship between Tong Jiangxin and him.
Sun Changning was not a fool. At this time, if he asked about the relationship between the two, he would undoubtedly get into trouble. So after saying a few words, he found an excuse and left.
Taking off his arm, McGaro lowered his head slightly and looked at Tong Jiangxin beside him. He whispered, "Jiang Xin, are you okay?"
Tong Jiangxin was originally angry and ashamed. She didn't expect that Sun Changning would be here and say such things to her. But the moment McGaro appeared, she felt that she had a strong support and she was no longer so embarrassed.
Raising her head and showing a faint beautiful smile to McGarlo, Tong Jiangxin said, "It's okay."
McGaro looked at Tong Jiangxin for a while, and then said, "Jiang Xin, my father wants to meet you."
Tong Jiangxin paused slightly. She couldn't tell what she was feeling. After experiencing too much, she always thought about the bad side of things. At this time, Mai Ding'an said he wanted to see her, but he didn't know what he was going to say.
Seeing the twinkle in Tong Jiangxin's eyes, McGaro felt distressed and whispered, "Jiang Xin, don't worry, my dad only heard that you came to celebrate his birthday, so he wants to meet you."
Now that things have happened, she can't say no. She nodded and Tong Jiangxin replied, "Yeah, I know."
McGaro led Tong Jiangxin through the hall and directly to a private place on the second floor. When he stepped in, Tong Jiangxin saw Mai Dingan in casual clothes sitting on a large leather sofa. He is fifty-five years old this year.
, but because he is well maintained and has black hair, he actually looks like he is only in his mid-forties.
After entering the room, Tong Jiangxin nodded first, then walked over and said with a faint smile, "Hello, Mr. Mai."
Mai Ding'an was not serious. He stretched out his hand and made an invitation gesture, gesturing for Tong Jiangxin to sit on the sofa opposite.
Tong Jiangxin sat down, and McGaro sat not far from her. Mai Ding'an said, "I heard from Mike that Miss Tong came to Singapore to visit. I have been living in Singapore for the past few years, and I also know the fun places here.
Quite a bit, I'll tell mike later and let her take you around."
Tong Jiangxin smiled lightly and replied, "I didn't know until I got off the plane that today is Chairman Mai's birthday, and I didn't prepare anything. It's better not to be weird."
When Mai Ding'an heard this, he smiled and replied, "I like this monstera very much."
Tong Jiangxin followed Mai Ding'an's line of sight and discovered that the potted monstera plant she bought at the flower market today had been placed in a corner of the room.
"Mike hasn't given me anything in so many years, but this year he was unusually thoughtful and gave me a pot of nandina. I keep it in this house. Bamboo can purify the air and is good for the body."
Mai Ding'an had a smile on his face, he was really happy.
Tong Jiangxin was relieved after hearing this. She originally thought that Mai Ding'an was a serious person, and she didn't know what he wanted to say when he came to her.
McGarloh then said, "Dad, I have to tell the truth. The gift I gave you today was also a gift of flowers to Buddha. It was Jiang Xin's suggestion."
"oh?"
Hearing this, Mai Ding'an looked at Tong Jiangxin, who replied with a faint smile, "Actually, Mike also wants to give you a birthday gift. He just doesn't know what to give you. I just suggested it."
Mai Ding'an smiled and replied, "You don't have to cover up for him. After all these years, I still don't know what kind of temper he is. As soon as I saw these two potted plants, I knew it was definitely not his decision to buy them."
Tong Jiang was pleased to see that nothing could be hidden from him. She glanced at McGallo and then said softly, "Nothing can be hidden from Mr. Mai's eyes."
Mai Ding'an said out loud, "You and Mike are good friends. Don't call me Mr. Mai. Just call me Uncle Mai."
McGaro smiled at Tong Jiangxin, and Tong Jiangxin also called out generously, "Uncle Mai, just call me by my name from now on."
The three of them were talking inside the room, when someone knocked on the door from outside, and Mai Ding'an said, "Come in."
The door was opened, and it was Mai Jiacheng who came in. He saw McGarro and Tong Jiangxin in the room, nodded to Tong Jiangxin, and then said, "Dad, the guests downstairs have almost arrived. Take a look.
Don’t you want to go down now?”
Mai Ding'an glanced at the clock on the wall, and then said, "Well, you go down first, I'll go down soon."
Mai Jiacheng nodded, then closed the door and walked out.
Mai Ding'an said to McGarloh, "Mike, you take Jiang Xin down first, and I'll change some clothes before going down."
McGaro responded, and then stood up together with Tong Jiangxin.
Tong Jiangxin said to Mai Ding'an, "Uncle Mai, happy birthday."
Mai Ding'an smiled lightly and replied, "Well, thank you, I'll go down and have some fun later."
Tong Jiangxin nodded, and then left the room with McGarloh.
McGarloh said, "Look, my dad is actually not as scary as you think."
Tong Jiangxin replied, "Then why do you always avoid him?"
McGarloh said, "That's different. He won't force you to inherit the company."
Tong Jiangxin smiled and had nothing to do with McGaro.
The two of them walked down the stairs together. Compared to the gorgeous dresses worn by the female guests present today, Tong Jiangxin only wore casual and elegant work clothes, high-waisted pants and a white patterned shirt. Her naturally long black silky hair was covered by her tall hair.
Coiled behind the head, it looks elegant and graceful.
As the two of them walked down, they unsurprisingly received the attention of many people present.
