This private restaurant is not opened in any alley, but in a commercial area. The chef's positioning for himself is only the successor of Shandong cuisine. He wants everyone to eat delicious and cheap Shandong cuisine, so the per capita price is not very expensive. Naturally, the business is quite popular. He needs to book in advance to have a box position.
At first, Jiang Zhili wanted to choose a quiet place. Anyway, he has been to many such clubs or clubs. Later, he thought it would be too much. It's just a gathering of ordinary friends, not a business banquet.
Chang Baji sent Qin Sheng to the door of the box and stopped. He was very knowledgeable and didn't go in. Chang Baji's smartest place is that he has a sense of propriety. When to do something and what to say, he is more stable.
When Qin Sheng followed the waiter in, Jiang Zhili got up first to greet him and said with a smile, "Qin Sheng, everyone has been waiting for you for a long time. We are still talking about you."
Qin Sheng nodded slightly to Jiang Zhili, then hugged him and said, "sorry to keep you waiting."
Everyone smiled and said it was all right. In fact, they were quietly looking at Qin Sheng and this legendary childhood companion. After all, not everyone would have such an experience. They had a prominent life experience but disappeared for more than 20 years. They thought they might have died, but they suddenly appeared again, and the timing was so coincidental.
In fact, Qin Sheng is also guessing Jiang Zhili's purpose. It's not that Qin Sheng spends the belly of a gentleman with a villain's heart, but that he has to think about it again after learning that the dark clouds hanging over the Qin family's head for several months have dispersed. According to what Jiang Zhili said, he already knew the news of his return. If he really cared about this childhood companion, why didn't he find a way to contact him? On the contrary, after knowing that the Qin family had no worries, they took the initiative to have an intersection with Qin Sheng. Was this intersection deliberately done? If the Qin family were still not safe, wouldn't there be such an encounter today?
Everything is possible. People's hearts are complex. What's more, in this world full of interests?
"There's no more nonsense. If we recall the past, we'll talk while drinking. Although we used to be little friends who pee farther than anyone, we haven't been in touch for more than 20 years, so I'd better introduce it to you first." Jiang Zhili, as the host of this evening, naturally left it to him to do.
Of course, everyone agrees with Jiang Zhili's proposal. At the same time, Jiang Zhili's metaphor also makes everyone smile with understanding, so as not to be embarrassed when meeting. Although they used to be familiar with each other, they were all things when they were young.
Jiang Zhili took Qin Sheng and said "I won't say much about this. I just told you a lot. Qin Sheng, our childhood companion in the courtyard of the Planning Commission, I'm afraid you've heard a lot of things before. Qin Sheng's disappearance for more than 20 years has also led us to have no contact for more than 20 years. No matter what happened during this period, now that Qin Sheng can return to Beijing, we should thank him and welcome Qin Sheng back."
Jiang Zhili took the initiative to applaud after saying that, and others applauded. At present, everyone maintains a wait-and-see attitude towards the emergence of Qin Sheng. Even though Qin Sheng has a huge background of the Qin family behind him, it is unclear whether he can integrate into this circle or not.
"Thank you. I'm glad to see you again. Although I've forgotten what you used to look like and you may not recognize me, I'm glad to see my old friend again," Qin Sheng said politely.
After introducing Qin Sheng, Jiang Zhili began to introduce the other partners who came to the party today. The man nicknamed madman was Tang Kai. When he was a child, he was thin and always bullied. Qin Sheng helped them fight several times. Now they also work within the system. Their family has more influence in the diplomatic system, So after he finished his postgraduate study at the Institute of international relations of the National People's Congress, he directly entered the Ministry of foreign affairs.
Jiang Zhili introduced the man in sweater, song Fangwang. Now he works in the CBRC. I'm afraid he knows more about the Chang'an department. He has a good relationship with Jiang Zhili. After all, they are from the financial system and have more contacts on weekdays.
Next is the handsome man on Jiang Zhili's left. His name is Xing Xiaodong. He is the only big man in the entertainment industry who is not physically or in central enterprises. He mixes well with the publicity system at home. He has an investment company and two film and television companies, and has participated in many film and television companies, Most importantly, his brother-in-law is an invisible big man in the film and television industry.
The last one, who has never spoken tonight, is Xu Wen. He looks ordinary and is not tall, but he has always been relatively low-key and seldom attends circle parties, but everyone knows that the boy has great ambition. Jiang Zhili was also surprised that he could come to the party tonight. At that time, he just mentioned it casually and didn't expect others to come, but he finally appeared. However, he is not very close to the others present. He belongs to the kind of friend but not a close friend. After all, only his background is comparable to Qin Sheng, but only Jiang Zhili knows. Therefore, he should be regarded as a person and thing wandering on the edge of this circle.
However, when he was a child, he had the best relationship with Qin Sheng. The two were inseparable. It is said that after Qin Sheng disappeared, he cried for more than half a month. After all, his best friend left like this, which was a great blow to him in his childhood. So after hearing the news, he promised to come over at the first time, because he really didn't know Qin Sheng was back.
When Qin Sheng came in slowly just now, he restrained his inner excitement. He didn't want others to notice his emotional fluctuations. This was his request to himself, so he didn't speak from beginning to end.
When Jiang Zhili introduced Xu Wen, Xu Wen offered his hand and said, "Xu Wen, our two families live in the same building."
Qin Sheng just felt that the name was a little familiar, but his memory of Xu Wen had long been blurred, so seeing Xu Wen had the same expression as seeing others. He just shook hands and nodded politely, which disappointed Xu Wen. He has been thinking about Qin Sheng for many years. He still keeps the group photo with Qin Sheng at that time and the gift Qin Sheng gave him at the beginning, so he thinks Qin Sheng is the same, but after meeting, he knows it's not like that.
After Jiang Zhili introduced Qin Sheng, he asked Qin Sheng to sit next to him. Xing Xiaodong has offered this position. Just now, it was just for the convenience of chatting.
Jiang Zhili told Qin Shengcai that they had been ordered. They were all the signs of this Lu restaurant. The taste was absolute and the taste was just that the environment was relatively ordinary. He asked Qin Sheng what he needed to add. Qin Sheng smiled and said no. he never asked for food. He mainly came to see you tonight.
The waiter soon brought cold dishes. Jiang Zhili asked him to divide the wine and looked at Qin Sheng and said, "Qin Sheng, I'm so happy tonight. Should I have a drink?"
Qin Sheng replied with a smile, "it's all right to drink. I'm afraid you're going to fill me up. I'm afraid I can't drink as much as you."
"Hahaha, that's it," said Jiang zhilile, and then asked Xu Wen, "Lao Xu, I know you seldom drink. Have a drink tonight?"
Jiang Zhili is very careful in front of Xu Wen. He knows that Xu Wen doesn't attach great importance to their friends. After all, his circle doesn't belong to this circle. Although they are all bright dandies in the eyes of outsiders, they are also divided into backgrounds and levels. Xu Wen belongs to a role higher than them at least one level.
Xu Wen's answer is very simple, two words, drink.
At the beginning, the atmosphere was not lively. Jiang Zhili took the initiative to take the rhythm. Although the madman jumped when Qin Shengzhen came, he didn't talk much after Qin Shengzhen came.
Jiang Zhili took the initiative to talk about what happened when he was a child, and other people agreed. Qin Sheng knew that Xu Wen had the best relationship with him at the beginning, and his eyes looked at Xu Wen more kindly. However, that's just it. What has the world become like in more than 20 years, not to mention the children in open crotch pants, The grown-ups have long been the same.
After a few glasses of wine, the atmosphere became more lively. People came and went to call brothers. After all, there was that layer of relationship. These people were not like Qin Sheng's childhood playmates in the village. After all, there is a big gap between those playmates in the village and Qin Sheng. Naturally, they have low self-esteem and high scores. However, these people are not different. They may be more restrained at first, but they are not taboo after talking. After all, they are at the same level.
After chatting about some interesting childhood stories, the madman smiled and asked, "Qin Sheng, are you married now?"
"It's not yet, you're not all finished," Qin Sheng replied with a smile. The others happily said that except Xing Xiaodong, who was nostalgic for the flowers, everyone else has finished. Of course, when it came to Jiang Zhili's daughter-in-law, Qin Sheng was very surprised. Unexpectedly, Jiang Zhili's wife was the supermodel he once liked, which made Qin Sheng envy.
The madman followed and asked, "there must be a girlfriend."
"Yes, if I don't have a girlfriend, others will doubt my sexual orientation," Qin shengban joked.
The madman Le he said, "it can't be our goddess song Ruyu. I've heard many people say that your relationship with song Ruyu is very ambiguous. If you can take down our goddess, it's really too long face."
Song Fangwang echoed at this time, "I seem to have heard about it from others. Qin Sheng, tell us about it to our old friends. Many people were defeated in chasing the great goddess of song, but they didn't expect to be occupied by you as a latecomer."
After hearing what they said, Qin Sheng's face changed slightly. This is not just about song Ruyu, but some of his guesses before he came were virtually verified.
