After all, Zhuang Ming had a reputation for spoiling his wife. Even Xiao Ce, who was not part of City H’s business circle, had heard of him!
Zhuang Ming’s honest and helpless words made Xiao Ting laugh out loud. He looked at Zhuang Ming and said, “Just like you said, which family doesn’t have difficulties? This is not your fault; you don’t have to apologize to that kind of person! You are you, and she is her. I’m going to make you my friend today!”
Xiao Ting stood up and looked at Zhuang Ming with a big smile. If it weren’t for the fact that he was still in his police uniform, which made it inconvenient for him to move, he would have put his arm around Zhuang Ming’s shoulder by now.
Looking at Zhuang Ming’s bitter expression, Xiao Ting felt that he was more and more to his liking.
He patted Zhuang Ming’s shoulder. “I’ve one year older than you. From now on, call me brother Ting, and I’ll treat you as a friend! It’s getting late, and I still have an auction to attend so I won’t keep you for a drink. I’ll call you another day when I have time.”
“Then I’ll have to find a suitable opportunity. I can only drink two glasses at most. If my wife finds out, I won’t be able to go home tonight. Now that you’re old, you must pay more attention to your health!” According to Xiao Ting’s words, Zhuang Ming smiled and made fun of himself. Xiao Ting laughed out loud.
Zhuang Ming could tell that Xiao Ting was an upright person.
If it wasn’t for the fact that the old lady was so angry that she left, and he remembered that he came here today for Zhuang Jing, he would have thought he was here to make friends with Xiao Ting!
The entire half an hour had been very long. Even Xiao Ce felt like he was in a dream.
Although he also felt that Mr. Zhuang was good, he had not reached the extent of his second uncle’s exaggerated love for him. He wanted to express his love on the spot!
He looked at his second uncle and then at Zhuang Ming. His smart brain seemed to have thought of something. He sighed softly and smiled with a bit of disappointment.
“Alright! That’s all for today. I’ll ‘entertain’ Zhuang Jing well! Your old lady can’t do anything to me for now.” Xiao Ting wiped the smile off his face and spoke to Zhuang Ming.
He seemed to have thought of something and said, “I wonder if Mr. Zhuang is interested in the charity auction? Why don’t we make up for that banquet today? Since you’re already home late, why don’t you go home even later? If you’re kicked out of the house by sister-in-law, I’ll help you explain. Don’t be afraid!”
Zhuang Ming raised his eyebrows and smiled helplessly at Xiao Ting. “Then I’ll have to rely on you today, brother Ting. The charity auction you’re talking about, is it the one at the West Sea Manor? ”
Xiao Ting was slightly surprised and subconsciously replied, “Oh? Do you know about this?”
As he listened to Xiao Ting’s question, Zhuang Ming’s mind flashed with obscure thoughts. He chuckled and answered honestly, “Of course, I know! Our family has already received the invitation. My first and second sons have already gone there today, but I think the auction should end soon.”
It wasn’t strange for Zhuang Ming to know about the charity auction at the West Sea Manor. On the contrary, it was puzzling that Xiao Ting, as the police chief, also knew about it, and he seemed to take it seriously.
Zhuang Ming looked at Xiao Ting with doubt in his eyes. He wanted to see something from Xiao Ting’s eyes, but Xiao Ting was an old fox.
He chuckled and didn’t show any strange expression. He just smiled at Zhuang Ming and said, “End? Hahaha, that’s impossible. It’s still early! It is an auction; the later the item is, the better it is! It’s the perfect time for us to go!”
Xiao Ting patted Zhuang Ming’s shoulder. “Give me five minutes. I’m going to the office to change.. We’ll leave immediately!”
