Chapter 93 More Worried
The Bund 18 Building is located at the intersection of Nanjing Road and the Bund in Shanghai.
The original name of this building was the Macquarie Bank Building. It was built in 1853 and has a construction area of 10256 square meters.
The building was restored and reopened in 2006.
The first and second floors are home to world-class luxury apparel, accessories and jewelry stores, representing the consumption philosophy of the elite. Brand stores such as Emperor Jewellery, Cartier and Patek Philippe are all located here.
The fourth to seventh floors are home to gourmet food and bars from all over the world, especially the fifth and sixth floors, which are both ranked among the top 50 restaurants in the world. The terrace on the seventh floor has become a must-visit place for enjoying nightlife in Shanghai.
This is where Liang Yuxin hosted the dinner.
Luo Yang had never been here in his two lifetimes.
To put it more bluntly, he has never been to such high-end places.
People always feel uncomfortable in unfamiliar places, and Luo Yang is no exception. After being brought into the Bund No. 18 building by Liang Yuxin, he seemed a little restrained.
"Xinxin!"
In such a big city like Shanghai, some people may not even meet each other once a year, but when they gather together in a specific occasion, people in the same circle may easily "meet by chance".
"Miaomiao!"
Seeing her friends, Liang Yuxin greeted them happily.
"Ha, we haven't seen each other for just over a month. Xinxin, do you have a boyfriend?"
The girl who came over was slightly shorter than Liang Yuxin, and seemed a little plump. Her round face looked particularly cute, and she was obviously a girl who loved to laugh.
"My dad's assistant Luo Yang, I owe him a favor, so I'll treat you."
I didn't tell the truth, but I didn't lie either.
"Luo Yang, this is my friend Miao Miao!"
"Hello, Miss Miao!"
"Hello, Assistant Luo!"
After the two shook hands, Miao Miao immediately took out her business card from her bag and said, "You must be very capable to be Uncle Liang's assistant at such a young age. Please take care of me in the future!"
Luo Yang's business card says he is assistant to the deputy general manager of Jincheng Real Estate, so he took it out to slap Liang Yuxin in the face.
"Mr. Liang treated me to a meal, and I was so excited that I forgot to bring my business card."
He clasped his hands together in an apologetic gesture, then glanced at the business card: Miao Miao, Director of Taihe Commercial Marketing Department.
"Let me see?"
Liang Yuxin also looked over and asked in surprise, "Head of Marketing?"
"Oh, stop talking."
The smiling Miao Miao sighed and said, "My dad said that I should either start from the grassroots level and gain experience in various departments to see what I am capable of, or go home and live a life of idleness with 20 yuan a month as pocket money!"
Liang Yuxin: “.”
"I usually eat in the cafeteria in my work clothes. It's finally the weekend, so I have to treat myself to a meal right away, right?"
Miao Miao felt better when she thought about the delicious food she would be able to eat soon. "I have lost 3 or 4 kilograms. If I continue like this, my face will not be round anymore!"
After a brief and polite chat, Miao Miao got out of the elevator first on the 5th floor.
Before leaving, he said hello to Luo Yang: "Bye, handsome guy!"
Luo Yang smiled in response.
"How about it, my friend has a good personality, right?"
"It's rare. He's not arrogant and quite approachable."
"rare?"
Liang Yuxin was stunned for a moment, then smiled and tilted her head and asked, "Do you think that all rich second-generations are extremely arrogant?"
"Is not it?"
"I don't know about others, but the ones I've come into contact with are all similar to Miao Miao."
Liang Yuxin smiled and said, "Most of them are polite and modest. Of course, those who just eat and wait to die don't count. Such people have basically lost their ambition and have a bit of a weird personality. It's hard to say whether they are good or bad."
"Friends without groups, bad people gather together!"
Luo Yang disagreed: "It is highly unlikely that an old rogue would socialize in the same circle as a gentleman."
"If you can talk, talk more. I love to listen!"
To Liang Yuxin, Luo Yang's words were automatically translated into praising her good character.
This little encounter made her feel better, so she drank an extra glass of red wine at dinner.
"Okay, I'll get off here. You can drive the car directly back to the company and give the keys to the building security."
A little after nine o'clock, Luo Yang drove Liang Yuxin back home. When the car arrived at the gate of her community, she got off directly.
After driving back to Songjiang from Xuhui and changing his own car, Luo Yang returned to the university town.
"Go downstairs and have a midnight snack!"
Luo Yang drove the car downstairs and called Jiang Wen for a midnight snack.
"Didn't the company leader invite you to dinner?"
In less than five minutes, Jiang Wen came downstairs. She was still wearing her nightgown inside, and she put on a long down jacket outside and went out.
She felt a little strange sitting in the passenger seat. Logically, it took more than two hours to finish dinner, right?
"Don't mention it. I was hungry until half past one in the afternoon, and then I had some afternoon tea and a few cookies to fill my stomach."
As Luo Yang drove to Songjiang city, he complained, "I was expecting to have a big meal tonight, but ended up going to a French restaurant and ordering all kinds of snails and foie gras. I didn't even feel full."
"goose"
Jiang Wen couldn't control herself for a moment and curled up in the passenger seat, laughing.
Barbecue is naturally the best midnight snack in winter.
Sizzling grilled red willow lamb kebabs, hot and spicy iron plate beef kebabs, grilled eggplant, grilled chicken wings, grilled leeks, everything can be grilled!
"Luo Yang."
"Ok?"
As Luo Yang was eating meat, his mouth was so stuffed that he could only use nasal sounds to express his meaning. "The leader who invited you to dinner is that female CEO Liang, right?"
After hearing some gossip once, Jiang Wen also knew that Luo Yang's direct supervisor at his current part-time job was a woman, and that she had a tendency to use unspoken rules in the workplace to exploit her subordinates.
Seeing Luo Yang nod, Jiang Wen said with a worried look on her face: "Boys should also protect themselves when they are outside. When I was working as a part-time car model, I also heard from others that many handsome male models are often taken advantage of by some old women. You can already earn hundreds of thousands a month now, there is no need to put up with her!"
"Pfft!"
Luo Yang quickly turned to the outside, for he was afraid that he would burst out laughing.
"What's going on in your mind all day long?"
"what?"
Jiang Wen blinked in confusion: "The last time I heard you on the phone, she..."
"That's the chairman's daughter, only a few years older than me."
She now began to care about whether this female leader was good-looking or not.
"Okay, stop worrying about me."
Luo Yang smiled and said, "I have made a three-point agreement with her. She will resign by next summer vacation."
"She agreed?"
"Well, otherwise what is the meaning of the three rules?"
Women understand women better, Jiang Wen is more worried
"Boss, order some food, one hundred skewers of lamb"
Before she could speak again, a group of young people walked into the barbecue restaurant and started shouting before they even sat down.
Jiang Wen looked up for a moment and was stunned.
The group consisted of three men and four women. There were two pairs who were hugging each other intimately. Jiang Wen recognized Gao Jiayu among them at a glance.
Even though she is now wearing smoky makeup and has a cigarette in her mouth.
Gao Jiayu also noticed Jiang Wen at first sight. Because the barbecue restaurant was not very big and Jiang Wen was too eye-catching, it was hard not to notice her.
She subconsciously spat out the cigarette in her mouth and sat down with her back to Jiang Wen.
"?"
Luo Yang noticed the change in Jiang Wen's expression.
"I saw Gao Jiayu!"
Jiang Wen didn't say anything, but opened her mouth and gestured to Luo Yang: "She's behind you at one o'clock. Don't look back. She's with a group of young hooligans."
After Luo Yang understood what Jiang Wen meant by her lip movements, he was also stunned for a moment.
Then he sneered, "Not surprising."
Strictly speaking, the group of young people behind Luo Yang were not thugs. They were all local people from Songjiang with some wealth. They usually liked to hang out in bars, billiard halls and KTVs, and they also liked to ride motorcycles.
Gao Jiayu, who often went to bars, was attracted by her wealth, free time and fun-loving personality. Luo Yang even guessed that she had relationships with more than one of the men in this group.
Back then, for Chen Xufeng, he, Lu Hao and Chang Sheng went to the bar to find Gao Jiayu. They almost got into a fight with her, but Gao Jiayu came out and talked to her, which made Chen Xufeng give up completely.
It was also on that night that Chen Xufeng drank himself unconscious. From then on, whenever he went to sing at 306 parties, he would order "Prison Bird".
"Will you tell Chen Xufeng?"
"No need."
Luo Yang thought for a moment and continued, "Since Gao Jiayu has seen me, I guess she will find a time to take the initiative to talk things over with the second brother."
"Too."
Jiang Wen nodded, then sighed, "Luo Yang, our secrets have also been exposed!"
It's clearly a sigh, but why are the corners of your mouth curled up?
"Do you think she will take the initiative to publicize this matter?"
Luo Yang felt it necessary to order a dozen more oysters and a few skewers of grilled leeks as he had a tough battle tonight.
"I'm afraid you'll talk to me privately when you get back."
After thinking about it, Jiang Wen felt a little disappointed, but she kept smiling and said, "Just mind your own business."
"Isn't this enough?"
Luo Yang smiled, then called out to the proprietress who had just finished taking orders at that table: "Add a dozen grilled oysters and two bunches of leeks!"
The proprietress immediately cast an envious look at Jiang Wen.
A little after twelve o'clock, Luo Yang took Jiang Wen out of the barbecue restaurant and parked the car on the side of the road. As soon as they got in the car, Gao Jiayu chased out of the store.
"Jiang Wen!"
Jiang Wen held the passenger door with one hand and turned to look at her charming roommate.
"Let's talk sometime tomorrow, okay?"
Through the car door, Gao Jiayu looked at Luo Yang sitting in the Mercedes-Benz with a complicated expression, then retracted her gaze and looked at Jiang Wen: "Don't tell anyone about what happened tonight."
Last time Jiang Fan treated everyone to a meal, Lu Yuanyuan and Dai Ying both attended. After returning to the dormitory, they both talked about Luo Yang's girlfriend.
This is what Gao Jiayu meant.
"it is good!"
Jiang Wen knew what Gao Jiayu was referring to and nodded in agreement.
Then she got into the car. With the sound of the engine starting, the Mercedes-Benz E300 slid into the night and disappeared from Gao Jiayu's sight.
"Snapped!"
Gao Jiayu lit a thin cigarette and took two puffs to satisfy his craving. Then, a look of contempt appeared on his face. "Why are you so arrogant? Luo Yang has a real girlfriend. Do you think I would take the risk of offending Luo Yang and help you expose her? You wish!"
A woman like her subconsciously admires the strong. She may look down on Jiang Wen, but she will never call Luo Yang a scumbag!
