Chapter 319: The Feast Has Not Started, but the Argument Has Begun
Once a relationship between a man and a woman falls into the stage of self-proving, there will be no end to it.
So Luo Yang was not in a hurry: "I saw you wearing it last time and thought it was good, so I asked the factory to design a few similar work clothes for all female office workers, but they don't match your temperament."
If you have nothing to hide, you will naturally be calm.
Jiang Fan didn't expect this answer.
"Humph!"
She wrinkled her nose slightly and looked at Luo Yang and said, "Don't mess around."
"tsk"
Luo Yang laughed and teased: "You have severely insulted my aesthetic sense. You must be punished by wearing work clothes and looking in the mirror for more than ten minutes tonight!"
"spit!"
Perhaps because he thought of certain scenes, Jiang Fan's cheeks turned slightly red.
With this conversation as a backdrop, the sudden thought that popped into her mind dissipated.
Because she didn't go home last night, although Xiao Yujun didn't call, she was still worried, so she asked Luo Yang to take her home early.
Going back to change clothes is a small matter, the main thing is to have lunch at home.
When Luo Yang had time, he went to Shuangfeng Town to inquire about the construction progress of the ready-mixed cement mortar factory and to visit his grandmother in the countryside.
Not long after I arrived, my uncle-in-law called me.
"Yangyang, have you returned to Yang City this week?"
"I came back yesterday afternoon and am now at my uncle's house."
Just after lunch, Luo Yang moved a small bamboo chair to the cement ground at the door and sat there, chatting with his grandmother while basking in the sun.
"Didn't your dad call you?"
"No."
Luo Yang was surprised and asked, "I had dinner with him in Songjiang two days ago, but he didn't say anything."
"The land acquisition and demolition work in Shuangfeng Town has been completed, and the overall planning scheme for the pilot project has also been released. According to the agreement, Guotai Real Estate will send a project company to officially enter Yang City at the beginning of next month."
Qiao Shian said on the phone: "That Ou Kai called me and said he wanted to invite the town and the person in charge of the project of the Cathay Pacific Project Company to have dinner together. The time is scheduled for this evening."
My uncle-in-law is the one in charge of infrastructure in the town, and Luo Jianguo is the engineering manager of Cathay Pacific's project company in Yang City.
"Is it advancing so fast?"
A few days ago, Luo Yang was in a low mood and had no intention of asking about the progress of the project.
"What number did the call come from?"
"Just yesterday."
Qiao Shian smacked his lips and said, "I don't even know what your father's attitude is right now, and I don't know if he will come tonight."
"My father won't keep the appointment."
Luo Yang immediately concluded that Luo Jianguo would not come back, and then explained: "The overall planning scheme has been released, and this river channel is not within the scope of the project. What's the point of looking for Guotai?"
Qiao Shian was stunned for a moment, because he also knew about the change in the planning scheme.
“But didn’t you say that at the time?”
"Cathay Pacific will allocate a sum of money to help the local river management. This decision has not changed!"
Luo Yang reminded Qiao Shian, "Uncle-in-law, no matter who the money is given to, this project will be a third-party project. Whether the government supervises it or not, Cathay Pacific will not be involved in this matter anyway."
The meaning is clear: if the government is willing to supervise, then it will put it on the open bidding platform and make it a public construction project. If the government is unwilling to take on this matter, then it will find a third party to supervise the funds and put the project up for public bidding.
There is also a hidden meaning: "Twin Peaks is playing dumb."
Qiao Shian heard it immediately.
So the tone on the phone became relaxed: "Okay, I got it. Yangyang, call your dad later to confirm that he is not coming back. I will take care of the dinner tonight."
Making this kind of call made Luo Jianguo worried.
Luo Yang, who had no intention of contacting his father, smiled and said, "How about this, I'll go with you to meet this Ou Kai tonight."
For some reason, as soon as his nephew said this, Qiao Shian instantly recalled the dinner he had for the environmental assessment business.
Vaguely uneasy, slightly excited.
After hanging up the phone, Luo Yang looked at his grandmother on the other side and found that she had fallen asleep in the recliner.
The old lady is now only interested in when her eldest grandson will get married.
After saying hello to his uncle, Luo Yang drove back to the city.
Just when I was halfway there, Jiang Fan called me.
"Luo Yang, I can't go out today!"
"what?"
"Mom said I didn't keep my promise, so I have to make up for it for one day."
Jiang Fan said unhappily on the phone: "As a punishment, I am not allowed to go out on a date with you today."
"tsk"
Luo Yang smacked his lips and said, "Push the responsibility onto me. Just say that it was me who refused to let you go home last night."
"It's fine if you don't talk about this, but it makes me angry when I talk about it."
Jiang Fan snorted twice and said, "In my mother's eyes, you are a principled person. She believes that it must be my idea not to go home last night!"
Is not it?
"Are you smirking now?"
Jiang Fan "threatened" Luo Yang: "Don't forget that Lao Jiang is my die-hard fan!" "Yeah."
Luo Yang suppressed his laughter and said, "So the next target is Lao Jiang. I plan to make him a good friend and try to make you call me uncle in the future!"
Jiang Fan: “.”
Before she got angry and embarrassed, Luo Yang quickly got down to business.
When Jiang Fan heard that he would be attending a dinner party with his uncle-in-law in the evening and that there was a complicated story involved, he instantly forgot about the unhappy things.
"Do you want me to call Lao Jiang?"
Jokes aside, when something really happened, Jiang Fan immediately "used" Jiang Yuanshan without hesitation.
"He's just a liar. Why would you use a butcher knife to kill a chicken?"
Luo Yang shamelessly boasted: "Your husband is invincible with just a little effort."
"cluck"
Jiang Fan spat softly on the phone: "Bah, shameless!"
She had heard similar jokes when chatting with Luo Yang privately before, so she could get the joke.
So the conversation suddenly became relaxed and pleasant.
Time passed quickly, and Luo Yang arrived at the agreed restaurant on time. He met up with his senior brother Chu Junpeng, and walked into the restaurant together.
In addition to him, Xiao Hei also brought four or five people into the hotel in advance and stayed in a private room on the second floor.
It’s not that Luo Yang is too cautious.
Comrade Jianguo was whispered in the ear because he trusted others.
When it comes to safety, it’s better to keep it in your own hands.
Under the guidance of the waiter, Luo Yang and Chu Junpeng came to the third floor and walked into the Huakai Fugui Hall.
There were already four people in the box, Qiao Shian was of course one of them, and the other two men and one woman were all strangers.
The fat young man sitting in the main seat is most likely Ou Kai, with a flat head and thick neck. If the big gold chain doesn't float, it must weigh two or three kilograms.
Tsk, I just don't know if he has any tattoos.
If it were ten years later, and you called 110 directly, you would probably be taken in for questioning.
The young woman next to him had a good base, but her dressing was a bit out of place. Not only was she wearing heavy makeup, but she was also covered in gold.
Perfect match!
It was another middle-aged man who wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and was dressed very elegantly.
And there was a warm smile on his face, giving people an approachable feeling at first glance.
It's worth being vigilant.
After the two entered the box, Qiao Shian and Ou Kai's expressions changed.
Qiao Shian was surprised because he saw Chu Junpeng appear.
Ou Kai changed color because Luo Yang was young and he mistook Luo Yang for Luo Jianguo!
"This is Mr. Luo, right?"
The change of expression only took a moment, but the greetings still needed to be done properly: "Originally we should have gone to the Magic City to treat you, but Qiao Town is not very convenient, so we can only let Mr. Luo come to Yang City."
Don't get it wrong, as the saying goes, appearance reflects the heart. The person who said this was not Ou Kai, but the middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses.
Moreover, this Mandarin dialect has a broad spectrum of flavor.
"I am Mr. Luo, for sure!"
Luo Yang looked over with a smile and asked, "Who are you?"
From a polite point of view, this was not a very appropriate statement, but Luo Yang said it in front of everyone.
The atmosphere in the box suddenly became tense.
"My name is He Junwei, Vice President of Hongda Engineering Co., Ltd."
He Junwei didn't look angry at all, and still smiled and said, "I know that Mr. Luo has worked hard to come to Yang City from the Magic City. I will definitely drink a few more glasses of apology wine later. If you are not satisfied with the arrangements later, can you take the blame for it?"
The implication is that there are further arrangements that will definitely make you calm down.
Soft and unyielding.
Luo Yang looked at him deeply, then took Chu Junpeng to sit down.
"My name is Luo Yang, and I'm here on behalf of my father."
Because Qiao Shian was also present, he certainly couldn't continue carrying the identity of his father, so he directly revealed his identity.
"Snapped!"
There was a clanging sound of cutlery and spoons on the table.
"What does Luo Jianguo mean?"
Ou Kai angrily slammed the table and looked at Luo Yang and said, "Are you looking down on me, Ou Kai?"
Qiao Shian's facial expression was quite complicated, he was a little confused about his nephew's intention.
We were talking fine in the afternoon. I came here just to deal with it. I'll find whoever I need to contact later.
As a result, we started arguing as soon as we entered the door.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense before the meal even started.
what the hell is this?
