Cross-border surveillance

At Longdong Airport, a black top-spec A8 drove away.

In the car, in the back row, Jiang Jinyu smiled while holding her mobile phone. The slanting sun shone on her face through the half-open window, like a filter on her face. The breeze ruffled her hair, which was so beautiful. Square things.

Sitting next to Jiang Jinyu was a beautiful middle-aged woman, her mother Qin Guanyu. She was wearing a cheongsam. She was a few years shy of fifty. Her figure was not out of shape at all. She was elegant and similar to Jiang Jinyu. Seven points similar, well maintained, they look like sisters when they sit together.

Looking at his daughter's heartfelt sweet smile, Qin Guanyu couldn't help but joked: "Your silly daughter is hopeless. Your heart has already flown away by now, right?"

"Mom, no," Jiang Jinyu turned around and hugged her arm coquettishly.

Shaking her head, she still didn't know what her daughter was thinking? Not so entangled, Qin Guanyu asked curiously: "After so many days of preparation, what gift are you going to give? The box you moved before is not small, and it is so heavy. It should be the gift you prepared, right?"

"It's nothing," Jiang Jinyu smiled.

Qin Guanyu said speechlessly: "You didn't even tell me? It's so mysterious. It took a lot of effort, right?"

"Is that a gift for someone? Who is it, a friend or an elder? When I picked up my luggage just now, I had a hard time moving it," the driver asked curiously.

It was a young man, in his thirties, who was about five points similar to Jiang Jinyu. He was a handsome guy and Jiang Jinyu's brother. He came to pick up his sister and act as a driver. Most people don't get this kind of treatment.

His name is Jiang Hechuan, a public figure who often appears on TV networks, but he is not within the system, but one of the senior executives of his family's Xinyao Group, and he will be the heir to it as expected.

Xinyao Group is not small in scale. It has become one of the top 500 companies in the world in the past two years. The result of several generations of hard work, it has caught up with the tide of the times and involves many fields, including new energy, medicine, tea, wine, real estate, and software development. Wait, but the core is cutting-edge technology, which is supported by the state. That thing is very expensive.

It is obvious that the Jiang family has begun to pave the way for Jiang Hechuan. He has often appeared in public these years. He has already obtained the top ten outstanding young people, and now he is still the representative.

Without waiting for Jiang Jinyu to say anything, Qin Guanyu said: "Drive your car well, the lives of our family of three are in your hands." After that, he added: "That is a gift from your sister to her sweetheart."

The daughter has already decided that the boy she has never met before is a family after all. Now she can reveal a little bit about it, so that she can be mentally prepared so that the daughter will not be caught off guard when she brings him back to the house.

Hearing this, Jiang Hechuan subconsciously hit the brakes. Fortunately, he wasn't driving very fast, and it was a luxury car, so it didn't have strong inertia.

Looking back, he looked at his sister with a shocked face and said, "My sister has a sweetheart? When did it happen? Why didn't I know, good guy, who can fall in my sister's eyes?"

He was really curious. What he was curious about was not that his sister had someone he liked, but who could be attracted to her. You must know that Jiang Jinyu is the apple of the family, and is generally considered difficult to approach in the circle. There are many pretentious people there. She retreated in despair because the young man wanted to get close to her. If her younger sister hadn't been so anxious, someone might have misunderstood that she didn't like men.

"Jiang Hechuan, you are going crazy. I asked you to drive well just now," Qin Guanyu said immediately out of temper.

Jiang Hechuan smiled apologetically and said, "Mom, wasn't this my subconscious reaction when I suddenly heard that my sister had a sweetheart? It wasn't intentional. What, come on, come on, tell me, what's going on? Who is that person? Do I know him? "

As he spoke, he looked forward again and started the car.

"Mom, why are you talking to me about this?" Jiang Jinyu said shyly. Although he had already identified Tao An, it hadn't started yet. He wanted to let his family know not to mess with me.

Qin Guanyu clapped her hand, looked forward and said, "Drive your car well. You will know where there are so many problems. I haven't seen them before."

"That's it." Jiang Hechuan nodded thoughtfully.

Jiang Jinyu looked forward and warned: "Brother, don't mess around, otherwise I won't be able to spare you."

"Haha, how come?" Jiang Hechuan smiled and put away some small thoughts.

If Jiang Jinyu didn't say that, he really had the idea of ​​investigating. After all, she is his own sister, and the elder brother must be sure to check it. But the sister said that, and it was obvious that he meant it, so he extinguished it. thoughts.

Even though he has a prominent status, he still feels a bit of pressure on his sister who is a top student in the family. She is simply facing the pressure of being a top student.

The stinky sister actually has a sweetheart. She left Dapu. I don’t know which evildoer my sister can fall in love with. And once the news comes out, I don’t know how many people will be heartbroken.

In a family like theirs, they naturally don't care about the other person's family status. They mainly look at their character. If they can be liked by their younger sister, it's not too bad, right?

Ding dong~!

When a message came, Jiang Jinyu immediately picked up her phone and checked it. It was a reply from Tao An. She immediately pursed her lips and smiled before typing a reply.

‘Monitor, are you coming? real or fake! 'Tao An's reply seemed quite surprising, and he was really surprised. Even after reading the letter, he was not sure that Jiang Jinyu would come. That day he sent a message at the instigation of Liu Haochen, and at that time Jiang Jinyu The fish's answer was too ambiguous, and I couldn't understand what he was thinking.

'Very surprised? ’ Jiang Jinyu replied, Tao An’s stunned expression seemed to appear in his mind.

'Not only was it an accident, I never thought you would actually come, monitor.'

"I just happened to be home and free," Jiang Jinyu made a random excuse. He didn't want Tao An to know that he came specifically for him. That would be too deliberate. What if it scares him?

In fact, after Tao An saw her message and the letter, after the initial surprise, he probably understood that Jiang Jinyu came specifically for him.

What can I say, my mood is quite complicated, I am a little overwhelmed with joy, and even a little flattered.

"It's my honor to be here, monitor. See you tomorrow. Remember to take a private room at Qianyue House at five in the afternoon."

Seeing this message, Jiang Jinyu knew that the chat was over, so she responded with a "received" message, and then she was still a little unfinished. She still wanted to talk to Tao Ando, ​​even if it was just a normal chat.

"Is that that boy? My silly girl, what's the matter with you? Your expression is like a nymphomaniac. You are usually aloof. Why do you lose your sense when it comes to that boy?" Qin Guanyu teased again. He said, not looking at the screen of her mobile phone. Even a mother would not pry into her daughter's privacy. If she had anything to do, she would just ask her directly.

"Mom~, no," Jiang Jinyu put down her phone and acted coquettishly, thinking, is it obvious?

Jiang Hechuan in front of me is all numb. Is this still my sister? What about the usually stern and aloof person? What about the domineering style that even I feel a little stressed about? Could it be that someone switched the contract?

Fake, hallucination...

"When will you go tomorrow?" Qin Guanyu asked.

"Afternoon," Jiang Jinyu replied, thinking about what to wear tomorrow, something simple or bright. More mature or childish? Anyway, you can’t wear it too well, so don’t put pressure on him.

After thinking about it, Qin Guanyu asked again: "Are you going to drink at that time?"

"I think so," Jiang Jinyu said absently. She doesn't have any objection to drinking. She can drink some herself, as long as she doesn't get drunk and acts like a drunkard. She is also happy to drink with Tao An. Hehe, would you like to pour him a drink? Chance? Well, that’s giving yourself a chance.

Seeing that his daughter was absent-minded, Qin Guanyu said no more, his eyes flickered and he didn't know what he was thinking about.

Jiang Hechuan in front raised his hand slightly and said: "Sister, are you going to see your sweetheart tomorrow? I want to go too. There may be a future brother-in-law. Let's get in touch in advance."

He was simply curious about who his sister's sweetheart was, not that he was afraid that his sister would suffer.

Will my sister suffer? Don't be ridiculous. During those years when she was studying abroad, some white-skinned pigs wanted to tease her. I don't know how many people were sent to the hospital by her sister. Many of them were sent to the police station. They regretted their life, so that many people later avoided her when they met her. Walk.

"Ni Zuokai," Jiang Jinyu rolled his eyes and said with disdain, "I'm going to see my sweetheart, you stinky brother, why are you joining in the fun? If you mess with me, who should I cry to?"

Qin Guanyu felt melancholy in his heart. His daughter was hopeless. As much as she liked her now, she would be sad if there were some bumps in the future. Hey...

After Tao An and Jiang Jinyu finished chatting, they put down their mobile phones and felt restless. They frowned and scratched their heads. They didn't know how to face the squad leader tomorrow. It was okay that they didn't find the letter. Now their mentality is different.

In the past, when the squad leader came, he would not be so entangled and could handle it calmly, but now he really doesn't know what to do, because that letter and Jiang Jinyu's every move have a subtle impact on Tao An's mentality.

It's impossible to pretend not to know. Tao An can't have the bad taste of watching other people's performances, but it's also impossible to admit it directly to them. It's very embarrassing. What to do.

Time passed unknowingly, and his parents came back from get off work, and they came back early today.

When he walked in and saw Tao An, who was torn between where to sit and where to stand, Tao Youlin couldn't help but said, "What are you doing, do you have hemorrhoids?"

"No... I just, forget it, I won't tell you, and I won't understand even if I tell you. Well, parents, you are back. It's quite early today." Tao An smiled and said, not worrying so much anymore, Let it be whatever it is when the time comes.

Pouting his lips, Tao Youlin said, "How can I understand if you don't tell me?"

"My son's birthday is tomorrow. Are you worried about this? After all, after you are twenty-four, you are no longer a child." Liu Xiaorong said with some emotion. In the blink of an eye, his son has grown so big.

Tao An was speechless and said, "You are no longer a child when you turn eighteen, okay?"

"In my eyes, you are still a child at the age of eighty."

Tao An couldn't refute this.

Tao Youlin said: "Everyone has been invited? How will we arrange it then?"

"We've all been invited. My cousin and cousin can't come. I'm out of town. Two classmates from the same community and two classmates from that year's class will bring their families. The head teacher from that year can't come either. I have a cold and I'm getting infusions. , followed by Liu Haochen and his wife, by the way, my squad leader will be here, that’s all," Tao An thought for a while.

After thinking for a while, Tao Youlin said: "In other words, there are about ten people in total, right?"

"Well, I'll bother you dad tomorrow, don't be stingy with the good food," Tao An nodded.

Pouting his lips, Tao Youlin said: "Okay, I owe you. It's my son's birthday. I'll cook it myself and make sure your friend has a good meal. I won't give you a birthday gift."

"Thank you dad"

On the side, Liu Xiaorong handed Tao An a box and said: "Here you are, a birthday present. Then put on the underwear inside after twelve o'clock. Remember not to fall asleep. Be careful in your zodiac year. Many people don't do anything in their zodiac year." It's all right, but son, you're fine, I've asked someone to help you figure it out, and I said you're going to be lucky and have great things coming."

"Thank you mom, I remember it. Do you still believe this?" Tao An said in surprise as he took the box.

Liu Xiaorong hummed and said, "Okay, I believe it. Where am I old?"

"Mom, you are not old, you are like a big girl." Tao An quickly apologized.

"Not a good person," Liu Xiaorong said with disdain, but she said so with a cheerful smile on her face.

Not to mention, Liu Xiaorong has used white flower dew several times in the past few days, and the changes are quite big. It is a bit exaggerated to say that she has changed into a different person, but in fact, she looks as if she is ten years younger, the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes have disappeared, and her skin has become fairer. It’s refined and radiant, as if it’s a second spring. Dad seems to have lost a few pounds in the past few days...

Probably due to her own changes, Liu Xiaorong seemed to have a different mentality and became more confident. As a result, her temperament seemed to have improved to a higher level.

Then, her sisters called her out of nowhere to ask what skin care products she used, but she fooled them. They didn't say it was the white toilet water provided by her son. Tao An had told her that there was no place to buy this stuff, so she couldn't. He didn't show off everywhere to cause trouble for his son.

Next, the family had dinner, sat for a while, then washed up and went back to the house.

Sitting on the bed, Tao An opened the birthday gift from his mother. He originally thought it was just some red underwear worn in the year of his birth, but he did have these, and there were several sets. But what surprised him was that there was also a tablet computer, and it was still far away Ahead of the latest models.

After turning on the tablet, Tao An focused on the tablet, and the icons of the other world monitoring software were automatically transferred to it. Without the Internet, Tao An clicked on it and looked at it. The screen was larger. Although it still displayed the same things, See more clearly.

But it was afternoon in the other world, and the yard was empty and no one was there.

Turning off the tablet, Tao An sent a message to his mother, saying that he received the gift and liked it very much.

He was not in a hurry to go to bed and just watched short videos to pass the time. At twelve o'clock, which was his birthday, Tao An put on red underwear. It was the year of his birth year and he had to wear red this year. Fortunately, he was wearing it, as long as it was his birthday. I'm not rosy, but I'm not afraid of being laughed at.

The next day, Tao An finished his usual duties and finished practicing in the afternoon. Before he could wash up, Liu Haochen called to urge him.

"Where are you?"

"You're at home, what's going on?"

"No, brother, it's your birthday today, and I've been to your store, but you, the real owner, haven't arrived yet?"

"You're my brother, okay, wait a moment, you'll be here soon."

After hanging up the phone, Tao An couldn't laugh or cry. The guy was actually more active than him, and it was as if it was his birthday.

After washing up, Tao An changed into a set of clean clothes, and then took a taxi to his store. He would definitely be drinking today, so he wouldn't be driving, and there seemed to be nothing to show off in just a van.

Although it was his birthday, Tao An didn't pay attention to what he wore. He wore a white T-shirt and black jeans, clean and tidy. He didn't have the habit of wearing jewelry.

But with his looks and figure, he is eye-catching even if he wears casual clothes and walks on the street.

On the other side, because she was going to attend Tao An's birthday, Jiang Jinyu started dressing up at noon, and even asked her mother to use it as a reference. She was so entangled in all kinds of tangles that she was speechless. She couldn't have this girl anymore.

After a lot of fussing and seeing that the time was almost up, Jiang Jinyu decided on the final outfit. The upper body was a white shirt with short sleeves, a big bow on the top of the plump and round chest, and the lower body was a knee-length pleated skirt with graceful lines. She also wore white stockings on her legs and crystal sandals on her feet.

Her waist-length hair was naturally disheveled. At Qin Guanyu's suggestion, she didn't wear makeup or jewelry, and just wore a hair tie on her wrist.

This dress is youthful and beautiful, like a pure high school student, but her figure is a bit foul.

"Mom, what do you think?" After finishing dressing up, Jiang Jinyu turned around and asked anxiously.

Qin Guanyu looked at it and nodded: "Very good, let's do it like this. My daughter actually looks good even without dressing up. What can I do if you worry about it? Besides, he is your high school classmate. You dress up so young and you can seduce him." Recalling his memories of you when he was young, it fits your purpose very well."

"Then it's confirmed, I'm leaving." He picked up his phone and looked at the time. Jiang Jinyu couldn't sit still.

Qin Guanyu reminded from behind: "Can you be steady? It's all messed up. You don't have your handbag?"

As she said that, she handed Jiang Jinyu the handbag that she had left behind, and secretly put two balloons in the handbag. Can a mother not worry about it? Her daughter is going to see her sweetheart, and she will probably have to drink. There are some things that are hard to say, so be prepared.

"Thank you, Mom." Jiang Jinyu took the handbag and had no idea what was inside. He kissed Qin Guanyu and went out downstairs.

When she came to the living room, her brother Jiang Hechuan was drinking tea. Seeing her sister's pure dress, she spit out a mouthful of tea, choking and coughing. However, her eyes were fixed on her sister. His face was stunned.

Is this still my sister? Where is the domineering female CEO? Why did she become the innocent little sister next door? This style of painting has changed a lot!

"Mr. Jiang, be careful, you are out of character like this." Jiang Jinyu glanced at his brother and left with his head held high, not caring what she thought.

Jiang Hechuan quickly wiped his mouth, suppressed his strange mood and stood up: "Shall I drive you?"

"Come on, I don't know what Mr. Jiang has planned. Don't cause trouble for me. I'll drive there myself." Jiang Jinyu didn't want to be fooled by him. He just wanted to see the pig. I haven't Take it, don't mess with it for me.

Jiang Hechuan was helpless and said, "Didn't you say you wanted to drink? How will you come back then?"

"Xiao Jiujiu and the others are already here, you don't need to worry about it." Jiang Jinyu waved his hand and left gracefully.

After Jiang Jinyu left, Jiang Hechuan finally couldn't hold back his laughter. While laughing, he said, "Oh my god, my sister who is usually aloof is actually dressed up so young. Who would believe me? Uh, I forgot to take a photo." Come down, otherwise I can laugh at her for a year, but she dressed up like this just to see her sweetheart, why do I want to hit her?"

Jiang Hechuan stopped laughing as he spoke, and even clenched his fists subconsciously...

Around 4:30, Tao An took a taxi to his hotel, Qianyue Renjia, which was located in an office building in the city center and mainly catered to office workers in the surrounding areas.

In terms of scale, how should I put it? There are about fifty or sixty tables in the hall, and there are more than a dozen private rooms. During normal meals, the occupancy rate is almost full. It is normal to turn over tables. On the contrary, the business is a little worse during holidays. On average, every day The turnover is around 30,000, but that is just turnover. Putting aside the cost of wages, water, electricity and store rent, you can't earn much in a month.

There are thirty or forty waiters, a few receptionists, a few cleaning staff, about thirty or forty people in the kitchen, as well as purchasing, accounting, and all these other people. When all these people are added together, the hotel is almost a hundred people small, so it can be maintained. operation.

This kind of industry has a high turnover of people, hiring people almost every month. It doesn't matter if there are more people, but I'm afraid it won't work if there are fewer people.

The salary he operates is pretty good for a restaurant of the same standard. The basic salary for an ordinary waiter is 3,000. Plus the commission on drinks and perfect attendance, he can sometimes earn 4,000 to 5,000 a month. If you open a restaurant, you must be responsible for the employees. Food and accommodation are also included, which is the so-called food and accommodation package.

In the words of Tao An's parents, those who can come to work in the store are either old or young. There is no need to be so indifferent. It is not easy for anyone. If you earn less, you will not make people feel too indifferent. After all, who would come to serve others when there are better options?

One thing his store clearly stipulates is that no matter in the kitchen or in the lobby, employees are prohibited from falling in love. Once discovered, they will be fired directly without any leeway.

The reason for this rule is that there was an incident when an employee fell in love. Several male waiters got into a fight because they liked the same female waiter. Not only did it affect the business, but they also got into trouble. It was a big trouble. I learned from that experience. , they made a rule that they were not allowed to fall in love. Of course, it was a different matter if they were married.

"Hello sir, how many guests are there? Do you have any reservations?"

When Tao An arrived at the door of the store, a greeter in a red festive cheongsam came forward to politely ask for guidance and hospitality.

She guessed that she was a female college student who came to work part-time. Her eyes were a little clear and stupid. Tao Anxin said that her mother had good taste. The faces and figures of several guests were all above seven points.

"No need to greet me, I know this place very well," Tao An waved his hand and smiled. He had never seen the greeter who spoke, but there were other familiar faces who smiled and waved hello.

One of the welcome guests, who was slightly older, in his mid-twenties, looked at Tao An and glared: "Wow, little boss, you have become so handsome? I didn't recognize it at the first time."

She was so surprised that her voice was slightly louder, which aroused the supervisor's attention. He immediately coughed as a reminder, but did not accuse anything and walked towards Tao An with a smile.

"Haha, I'm handsome, you guys are busy," Tao An said hello and entered the store.

At first, when the greeter heard that he was the little boss, he stopped insisting on leading the way. He looked at Tao An's back and said to the person who was talking: "Sister Li, he is the little boss? He is so handsome, he looks so tall that he touches my heart."

"Stop being so wild, there's no chance for you," Sister Li lowered her voice and said with a smile.

"How do you know if you don't try? He's so handsome, and sleeping with him even if you don't talk about feelings is hard earned."

"Then you have to be able to sleep. If your parents are like that, just say you feel inferior or not."

"That's right. Let's not talk about it. We have guests..."

There is a saying, girls really have nothing to do with boys when they are flirting.

"Brother Liu, you're busy." After entering the store, Tao An smiled and greeted the supervisor who came over. He has been working here for many years, and Tao An knows him well.

Liu Yong, who had served as a soldier, was upright in every move he made. He smiled and said: "It's not the peak period yet, but I'm not busy. Xiao Tao comes over for dinner?"

"Well, I invited some friends."

"Okay, let me know if you need anything."

"Okay, Brother Liu, you are busy, so I won't bother you."

After saying hello and leaving, Tao An went straight to the private room, Ping'an Pavilion, greeting familiar people along the way.

After Tao An left, Liu Yong specially arranged an exciting waiter to take charge of Tao An's private room. Logically speaking, there is no need to do anything special about this kind of thing, but people still have this kind of discernment. In society I've been around for a few years, so I can't be more tactful. Anyway, there won't be anything wrong.

When he came to the private room and opened the door, Tao An was speechless. Liu Haochen was holding Zhao Shihan's hand to read his palm. It was so disgusting that they almost hugged and chewed it together. He curled his lips and said: "That's enough for you two. You're going to kill the dog as soon as you come here." ?”

"Damn it, you just came, isn't this boring?" Liu Haochen shouted, but he let go of Zhao Shihan's hand.

Zhao Shihan said hello: "Happy birthday, Brother An, come here, give me a gift, I mean it, don't dislike it."

"We are in a group, so we won't send it off alone," Liu Haochen shouted from the side.

Tao An smiled and said: "You two gave me this trick, thank you very much."

He didn't refuse. He took it and put it on the cabinet beside him. He didn't open it on the spot. That was rude.

"Why are you so polite? Brother An, where are the other people you called?" Zhao Shihan asked after giving the gift.

Tao An sat down on the sofa and said, "I'm on my way here, Lu Lu Lu will be here soon."

"Who is there?" Liu Haochen asked curiously.

Tao An said: "Huang Guangyi and Luo Jiangchun, these two are from our community. They were in the next class in the school. You know them. Then Liu Xiaoxiao and Zhu Dapeng were in our high school class. They will bring their families and the class monitor." , and then there is no one left.”

"They, we haven't seen each other for a while, we need to have a nice drink later... Wait, who are you talking about? The monitor?" Liu Haochen's eyes widened as he spoke.

Nodding, Tao An said: "Well, that's right, it's monitor Jiang Jinyu."

"No, is she really coming? I remember that she didn't say she was coming when I sent a text message that day," Liu Hao said in shock.

After pondering for a moment, Tao An shrugged and said, "Yesterday she sent me a message saying she was going home, and then she dropped by."

"That's it, hey, I want to see if the squad leader has become as exaggerated as you said later." Liu Haochen immediately became interested.

Don't tell me, Tao An was a little uneasy now. He knew what the squad leader was thinking, how should he face it later?

Zhao Shihan on the side rolled her eyes when she heard this, and looked at Tao An a little strangely, as if she couldn't believe it, but she seemed to think it was normal. Then she silently took out her mobile phone and quietly sent a message to Jiang Jinyu: 'Monitor Are you coming to An Ge's birthday? Where have you been? ’

‘On the way, we’ll be there soon, Qian Yue’s Ping An Pavilion, right? ’ Jiang Jinyu’s reply was quick.

‘Yes, come on, we haven’t seen each other for many years, we need to have a good chat later’

When replying, he glanced at Tao An again. Zhao Shihan was very surprised in her heart. Could it be true? The monitor likes Brother An?

Before that, Jiang Jinyu had contacted her and inquired about Tao An. Zhao Shihan was a little suspicious at that time, but it was too unrealistic and she was not sure. She didn't even tell Liu Haochen about this pillow Man, now it seems that it is true that the squad leader likes Brother An, otherwise why would she come to attend the birthday? You know, after learning that Jiang Jinyu would come, many people asked her for various reasons, but no one We actually had a date, and the group even made bets on who could set the precedent.

"Wait, that is to say, what the squad leader said at the last class gathering is true. She already has someone she likes, and this person is probably Brother An. My God, this is amazing!" Zhao Shihan said now Er was so shocked that she even felt that she was Wu Zetian, which was more real than this.

However, she wasn't sure about this yet. She planned to observe it secretly later. If it was as guessed, there would always be clues.

Liu Haochen thought it was a surprise that Jiang Jinyu would come, so he didn't think much about it. Instead, he asked, "Have you ordered your food?"

"I made an agreement with my dad yesterday that he will make arrangements according to the number of people and cook in person," Tao An said with a smile.

Liu Haochen immediately rubbed his hands and said: "Hey, I'm really lucky today. I'll take advantage of you. You must know that Uncle Tao won't cook easily. Most people don't get that kind of treatment."

"You've been to my house a lot over the years, haven't you had enough?" Tao An said speechlessly.

Curling his lips, Liu Haochen said: "You are a full man and don't know a hungry man is hungry. Of course you don't think so when you often eat Uncle Tao's cooking. But it's rare for us to eat it once. We are so greedy."

Is it so exaggerated? Tao An expressed his disapproval of Sister Li.

While they were chatting, someone knocked on the door, and then the welcome opened the door and ushered them in.

Tao An's head shook when he heard the knock on the door. He was a little panicked for no reason. But when he saw the person coming in, he was relieved and a little disappointed at the same time. Why?

Huang Guangyi and Luo Jiangchun came together. They came from the same community as Tao An. Huang Guangyi was about 1.7 meters tall and a bit chubby. Luo Jiangchun was tall and thin, with four eyes.

"Guangyi, Chunchun, here you go, sit here," Tao An immediately stood up and greeted.

Huang Guangyi waved and smiled: "Brother An, you have to come for your birthday, but we both came empty-handed."

"What are you talking about? I'm glad you can come. Sit down and have a cup of tea first," Tao An said enthusiastically, but the waiter had already served the tea.

Luo Jiangchun couldn't laugh or cry and said: "Brother An, can you please stop calling me Chunchun?"

"Chunchun, do you still remember me?" Liu Haochen stood up and smiled, and Zhao Shihan also stood up and waved hello.

"Mouse, why can't I remember you? It's enough for you. Don't bring this kind of thing." Luo Jiangchun said speechlessly. This spring is going to be hard to get through, right?

Huang Guangyi looked around and asked, "Who else hasn't arrived yet?"

"Brother An said that there are Liu Xiaoxiao and Zhu Dapeng. They have their families with them. I don't know what will happen. There is a surprise in the end, but I'll give it a try first. You will be surprised later," Liu Haochen took the initiative to shout.

"They are bringing their families with them? Tsk, they are all in pairs. We are the only ones who are single. What a surprise?" Huang Guangyi asked puzzledly.

Tao An thought for a while and agreed: "Single dog plus one"

I don't know if it's temporary...

"It's all said to be a secret, it's meaningless to say it." Liu Haochen didn't tell them directly that Jiang Jinyu would come. Although they were not in the same class, Jiang Jinyu was very famous in the school.

At this time, someone knocked on the door again, and Tao An's heart was in his throat again. He didn't know why this happened, and secretly cursed himself for being useless.

It was not Jiang Jinyu who came, but Liu Xiaoxiao and Zhu Dapeng.

Liu Xiaoxiao is a quiet girl with glasses and a nice smile. Zhu Dapeng is as her name suggests, tall and big. She was the main basketball player in the school class back then. She is a few centimeters taller than Tao An and can dunk easily. He can also dunk during a run-up, which attracted many girls back then.

After greeting each other, Tao An saw that there was no one behind him and asked doubtfully: "No, Xiaoxiao, Dapeng, didn't you say you would bring your family members? Where are the people?"

Zhu Dapeng hugged Liu Xiaoxiao, who was only up to his chest, and said, "We are each other's family members."

"I'll go, is it true or not?" Liu Haochen said in shock, and the others also looked surprised.

Liu Xiaoxiao was not shy at all, and said generously: "This is still a holiday. We are both engaged and getting married at the end of the year. You must come then."

"That's a must." Huang Guangyi nodded and looked at each other with Luo Jiangchun. The two singles looked hopeless.

Tao An shook his head and wondered whether he should laugh or cry: "Let's take a look at the people around you one by one. Rats are like this, why are you like this, Dapeng?"

Then he secretly thought to himself, maybe I will be next!

"What does it mean to specifically attack the people around you? This is called fate. Whether you understand love or not, you can't stop it," Zhu Dapeng said seductively.

Luo Jiangchun sighed: "That's enough for you, there are still three dogs..."

As a result, before he finished speaking, as the door of the private room was pushed open, he happened to see Jiang Jinyu being introduced by the greeter. He was immediately stuck, staring and opening his mouth in disbelief.

He was immediately struck by the unreal beauty of Jiang Jinyu, and his mind went blank. He then subconsciously looked away in shame and did not dare to look further.

To be honest, as beautiful as Jiang Jinyu, just looking at her requires a lot of courage. This is only if she puts away her strong aura in the workplace.

"Mouse, is this the surprise you are talking about? Beauty Jiang, your third class monitor back then?" Huang Guangyi was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Liu Haochen and asked with an incredulous look on his face.

At that time, Jiang Jinyu was not only beautiful, but also the top student among the top students. Everyone in school knew about her. Although they were not in the same class, they all knew Huang Guangyi, so they recognized him at first sight. It's because of Jiang Jinyu's current dress. Apart from her better figure and fine-tuned appearance, there is almost no change from before. Unlike the time Tao An saw her wearing a wig and glasses, her aura and temperament were simply... Two completely different people.

"Yes, yes, this is a surprise," Liu Haochen said subconsciously. At this moment, he himself was dumbfounded.

Originally, he thought Tao An's description was a bit too exaggerated. But now that he saw Jiang Jinyu, he couldn't tell why he was exaggerating. He was clearly being conservative.

"Wow, monitor, you're here too, what a surprise." Liu Xiaoxiao immediately exclaimed and moved forward. She was not too surprised by Jiang Jinyu's beauty. After all, they went to the last party. .

Zhao Shihan was not jealous that her husband was staring at the squad monitor in a daze. She just rolled her eyes, then walked towards Jiang Jinyu with a smile on her face and said excitedly: "Squad monitor, long time no see, you are so beautiful, I almost fell asleep." I don’t dare to admit it”

Zhu Dapeng and the others smiled and nodded at Jiang Jinyu. They knew that this squad leader was not easy to get along with, so they did not feel uncomfortable going to him.

But Jiang Jinyu's reaction was beyond their expectations.

I saw Jiang Jinyu looking around after entering the private room, and immediately smiled brightly and waved hello: "Hi, everyone, Zhu Dapeng, Xiaoxiao, Shishi, Mouse, those two are Huang Guangyi and Luo Jiangchun, right? I'm from the next class, I remember. How are you doing? Finally, Tao An, happy birthday."

This is the memory of a top student. He recognizes everyone here at a glance.

However, her elegant and generous gesture shocked everyone present. Is the rumor wrong? Why is this Jiang Jinyu so difficult to get along with? But I remember that she was really difficult to get along with back then.

I had to admit the fact that Jiang Jinyu's appearance immediately became the center of attention. Even the lights in the private room were not as dazzling as hers. Everything seemed to be compensation.

She didn't stand in silence, and greeted everyone politely. Of course, it was because she was giving Tao An face. She was thoughtful and must not embarrass Tao An, otherwise she wouldn't be so enthusiastic.

Although she acted casually, her attention was actually focused on the last mentioned protagonist, Tao An. Then Jiang Jinyu felt a little strange. There was something wrong with Tao An's reaction. She couldn't tell what was wrong. , secretly thinking, is there something wrong with me?

Little did he know that Tao An was at a loss when facing her because of her confession letter.

When he saw Jiang Jinyu, his heart beat faster than expected. Such a beautiful girl, who shines like a spotlight wherever she goes, actually liked me. Did I save the galaxy in my previous life?

Suppressing the dreamlike unreality in his heart, Tao An tried his best to calmly wave and smile: "The monitor is here, please take a seat."

"Everyone, please stop standing and sit down." Jiang Jinyu smiled and waved his hand, which actually seemed to be a bit anti-customer.

Then, under the somewhat strange gazes of everyone, she walked up to Tao An gracefully, pulled up a stool, pressed her pleated skirt, and sat down with her legs crossed. Although they were dozens of centimeters apart, they were right next to each other.

Shouldn't girls sit with girls? Are you just going to leave me and Xiaoxiao alone?

When Zhao Shihan saw this, she took a deep breath and was shocked. Is the squad leader declaring sovereignty? Oh my god, are you so brave? Go directly to A!

Tao An's head also jerked, and he couldn't bear it anymore. He probably didn't feel anything before, but now he was inevitably thinking wildly.

What does monitor mean? Just sit next to me? Don't you go through the process? what do I do? Waiting online, it's quite urgent...

Forcing himself to be distraught, Tao An didn't smell any fragrance even though Jiang Jinyu was beside him. He smiled and greeted everyone, "Sit down, everyone. Everyone has arrived. It's time to serve the food."

The waiter at the door nodded and smiled: "Okay, but madam, where do you put your things?"

The waiter was holding a box in his hand at the moment. It seemed a bit heavy. It was a wooden box, one foot wide and half a meter high.

In fact, Jiang Jinyu was not as calm as she seemed, especially when she was sitting next to Tao An. She was very nervous, but she concealed it very well. When she heard the waiter's words, she seemed to remember something, and said: "Just let it go." Put it on the cabinet, thank you.”

While the waiter over there nodded to express his understanding, Jiang Jinyu looked at Tao An and said with a smile: "Happy birthday, this is a gift for you, it's a little thoughtful, don't refuse it."

"It's an honor to be here, squad leader, and I bring a gift. How embarrassing." Tao An scratched his head and said, damn it, I have nowhere to put my hands, this useless thing.

Facing Jiang Jinyu who was so close at hand, he was really at a loss. That beautiful face seemed to be filled with his own smile, red lips, foul figure... Hey, he was going to die, who could stand up to him? You have to live there.

Is there something wrong with his reaction? He seems nervous? I wasn't nervous about what he was nervous about. Last time it was quite natural.

Jiang Jinyu glanced at Tao An suspiciously and found that his eyes were a little evasive. Jiang Jinyu was puzzled, but he said: "This seems to be your twenty-fourth birthday. It is your natal year. It is still very important. How can you come empty-handed?"

Liu Haochen glanced at the two of them strangely. He always felt that they were a little subtle. What was going on? But he still didn't think about anything else, but asked out of curiosity: "Squad leader, what's in such a big box?"

When he asked, others also became curious. After all, the thing was no ordinary gift at first sight. Anyone with a sharp eye could see that the box itself was very particular and did not seem to be ordinary wood.

Jiang Jinyu didn't show any concern and said directly: "A kind of medicinal wine. When I met Tao An last time in Hangzhou, he said during the chat that he was practicing martial arts recently. It was his birthday. I didn't know what to give him. I’ll give you some medicinal wine, it will relax your muscles and activate your blood circulation. Drinking a small cup every day is good for your health.”

She didn't say that the box of medicinal wine was made by everyone. It was said that it was a secret recipe of the palace. It was not available on the market. She also spent a lot of effort to get it through connections and spent more than 300,000!

To Jiang Jinyu, hundreds of thousands are nothing. As long as it can benefit Tao An, she won't hesitate to pay more, but there is no need to say such things.

"Brother An actually still practices martial arts?" Huang Guangyi said in surprise. He didn't have the courage to talk to Jiang Jinyu, and he didn't bother with the medicinal wine. He guessed that it would be like that, and instead turned his attention to Tao An.

Liu Xiaoxiao looked at Tao An and said with bright eyes, "I believe in Brother An's martial arts training. That figure is amazing."

"Honey, I have a pretty good figure too, okay?" Zhu Dapeng smiled with a jealous expression on his face.

Liu Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes and said, "The muscles on your body are so ugly. Can you compare with An Ge?"

They are all muscles, what's the difference? Why treat them differently?

The atmosphere between the two of them became heated.

At this moment, the waiter has started to serve the food, and the aroma suddenly fills the room, attracting everyone's attention. It looks delicious.

"Wow, Brother An is indeed a small boss. No one else gets this kind of treatment. They are all signature dishes, and they are made by Uncle Tao, right?" Huang Guangyi said with bright eyes. He is a fat man, and you can tell he is a foodie at a glance.

Hearing that the others were okay, Jiang Jinyu pursed his lips subconsciously, and suddenly became more nervous. He didn't think much about it before, but now he realized that this store belongs to Tao An's family, doesn't it mean that Is it possible to meet his parents? This was too sudden. She was not mentally prepared at all.

No matter how smart and capable Jiang Jinyu is and how dominating she is in the workplace, she is not much different from ordinary girls when it comes to this kind of thing.

Although it hasn't started yet, when I think that the 'ugly daughter-in-law' will meet her parents-in-law sooner or later, it is inevitable to be excited and nervous.

"Well, my dad made it. Everyone will have fun later. By the way, do you want white or beer?" Tao An said with a smile. He asked his dad to look at the arrangement, but the wine was not confirmed. There are some common brands of wine here, so there’s no need to worry.

Zhu Dapeng said: "It's white, beer is too bloating. If you drink too much, you won't be able to eat. Uncle Tao's skills will be wasted. What about you?"

"Then let it be white." Liu Haochen nodded, indicating that he had no objection.

Tao An thought for a while, then turned to look at Jiang Jinyu and asked, "Squad leader, what about you? Can you drink it? Can I give you some juice?"

"I can do that. It's your birthday, you're the oldest, how can I spoil the fun?" Jiang Jinyu said calmly, but in her heart she was thinking whether she should drink as much fun as possible with them later, or should she drink as much alcohol as she could to create opportunities for herself. ?

Seeing this, Tao An no longer hesitated and said: "Then it's settled. Girls can drink as much as they can. No forcing. Everyone can come to my birthday just to be happy. We don't do that in society. Please Get us two bottles of Maotai, if there’s not enough, we’ll need more.”

Tao An said the second half of the sentence to the waiter.

"OK, just a second……"

Taking advantage of this time, Tao An greeted: "Come on, come on, you're welcome, use your chopsticks, we don't have so many rules."

"It's breakfast, I need you to say something. I came here on an empty stomach to eat the dishes cooked by Uncle Tao," Liu Haochen, who was already full of oil, said with a grin.

Jiang Jinyu pursed her lips and smiled, thinking that Tao An's friends were quite interesting. All the classmates from back then had changed, but they seemed to have stayed the same.

‘If nothing else, these are the people I will often get along with in the future.’

Thinking like this, she glanced at Tao An without any trace, and secretly thought when will this pig wake up, but I can't blow up your elm lump with my Wang Zhao.

As a result, she actually met Tao An's eyes at a glance. Their hearts skipped a beat and they moved away without leaving a trace.

"When I was in high school, I often heard you say how delicious Uncle Tao's cooking was, but I never had the chance. Today I have to try it." Jiang Jinyu opened the package of sterilized chopsticks and smiled, looking forward to it. She was really looking forward to it, not pretending. Even if she had never eaten anything good, it was made by Tao An's father and it was different.

Tao An said: "Whatever the squad leader wants to eat, if it can't reach me, I will pick it up for you."

He was just reacting as a normal boy. With serving chopsticks, it didn't seem out of the ordinary.

Glancing at him in surprise, Jiang Jin thought to himself, "Is this guy enlightened?" He smiled and said, "Okay, if you really can't reach me, I won't be polite to you."

Her hands are so beautiful. They are even prettier in real life than in the last picture. If only... I could hold them for a moment... Bah, stop it. What are you thinking about? This is starting to make you look like you're in trouble?

They didn't dare to think too much. When the wine came, there were waiters serving it and pouring it, so they didn't need to do it themselves.

After everyone got the wine, Tao An raised the small glass and said: "I am very happy that everyone came to attend my birthday. I hope we can get together more often in the future. We have been classmates for so many years. It is not easy to get together when we are separated. How can we leave alone? Sample?"

"Come on, take one," Zhao Shihan put down her chopsticks and said.

Then everyone toasted together, and they all wished Tao An a happy birthday in unison, and Tao An thanked him repeatedly.

Jiang Jinyu drank a glass of wine and frowned slightly. Then he slightly stuck out his tongue and exhaled, then relaxed his brows. His fair and tender cheeks were slightly red, as if they were stained with rouge, and they were incredibly beautiful.

She can drink wine, and the amount is actually quite large. She can drink a bottle of wine like Maotai and still stay awake. After all, various drinking games are inevitable in the workplace, but there are not many people who can make her drink to that extent.

"Is it okay, squad leader? Don't force yourself if you can't drink." Somehow, it was the letter that was causing trouble. Tao An subconsciously cared.

Jiang Jinyu showed his face and said: "It's okay, I just don't drink it often, I just need to get used to it."

"That's good." In this way, Tao An was no longer entangled.

Over there, Liu Haochen started making noises and said, "Brother An, today is your birthday. You are the protagonist. Do you want to walk around?"

"Yes, yes, walk around in a circle," Zhu Dapeng also echoed.

Tao An did not object to such playfulness, he poured the wine directly and said: "Just walk around in a circle, starting from the fat man, come on, let's do it."

On his left was Jiang Jinyu, and the first on his right was Huang Guangyi. Jiang Jinyu was a girl after all, so there was no reason for her to drink two drinks in a row.

"Come on, Brother An, happy birthday, let's do it." Huang Guangyi raised his glass directly.

Generally, when walking around a wine table, one starts from the left. After all, there are usually important people to the left of the host. Jiang Jinyu paid attention to Tao An's behavior and secretly thought that this pig is quite attentive, and the human heart is usually They are all on the left side. Am I one step closer to his heart?

Thinking of this, her face turned redder, a little shy, and more of her own little sweetness.

Next, Tao An walked around one after another. When it was Jiang Jinyu's turn, he raised his glass and said, "Squad leader, it's your turn. Drink as much as you can without forcing it. Just do what you want."

"How can that be done? Everyone must be fair. You can't just treat the squad leader differently," Liu Xiaoxiao shouted, not targeting Jiang Jinyu, but just to create a cheerful atmosphere.

Zhao Shihan also said: "That's right, the squad leader should drink more. Back then, we were so overwhelmed that we couldn't breathe. It's a rare opportunity, so we have to take a good breath of 'bad breath' today!"

Jiang Jinyu didn't need to be afraid, she was even happy about it. As Tao An's friend, she also wanted to blend in. She raised her glass and said, "Tao An, you can't underestimate girls. Although I don't drink much, I can still drink a few drinks." Yes, come on, do it”

As she said this, she glanced at Tao An provocatively, as if to say, come on, kid, who is afraid of who?

"Okay, squad leader, women are not inferior to men." Luo Jiangchun applauded, not because of flattery, but mainly because Jiang Jinyu was too sassy.

So Tao An raised his glass and said, "Come on, let's do it."

While drinking, Jiang Jinyu looked at Tao An with beautiful eyes, her moist eyes twinkling, and said in her heart that I would like to have a drink with you in the future.

Then after drinking a glass of wine, her face turned even redder, as if she was drunk.

Facing her gaze, Tao An's heart beat faster. He felt that she was too aggressive and couldn't resist, so he avoided looking at the others and asked, "I've walked around a circle, who's next?"

"I'll do it, it's up to me in terms of order," Huang Guangyi said. In fact, he was a little cautious. Maotai was not something he could drink with open stomach...

They got together for Tao An's birthday, and the atmosphere was very enthusiastic. No one was in the cold, and they were very happy to exchange cups and glasses. No one said anything that was disappointing. As they talked, they started to reminisce about their school days and how they were back then. , so and so did what, and then I don’t know who hummed to you at the same table. The atmosphere was reached, and everyone actually sang together. After finishing, Liu Xiaoxiao, who was sentimental, actually had red eyes, and smiled sheepishly, her husband Zhu Dapeng took the initiative to suggest that everyone drink together to help solve the problem.

While they were eating and drinking happily, there was a knock on the door of the private room in the middle, and then Liu Xiaorong, wearing a shirt and a suit, opened the door and walked in, holding a walkie-talkie in her hand and the manager's badge on her chest.

When she entered the door and saw her son, her eyes were immediately attracted to Jiang Jinyu beside her. She was stunned for a moment, and even exited to look at the house number, thinking that she was in the wrong place.

When Tao An heard the noise, he turned around and said in surprise: "Mom, why are you here?"

"Hello, aunt"

"Auntie, sit here..."

Seeing this, the others stood up.

Especially Jiang Jinyu, her whole body was tense, and she didn't know how to place her beautiful little hands. She had never been so nervous, although she didn't know why she was nervous.

"Everyone, sit down, sit down, I'm here to take a look, don't mind me, eat well and drink well, don't overdo it," Liu Xiaorong said with a kind smile.

Tao An said, "Mom, why don't you sit down and have something to eat together?"

"No, I won't join you young people when they get together, lest you feel uncomfortable. Haochen, Shishi, Guangyi, Jiang Chun, you are all here. These are strangers. Can you please introduce me to Jinzhu?" Liu Xiaorong did not say. He planned to stay, but still looked at Tao An and asked.

In fact, her attention was highly focused on Jiang Jinyu, and she covered it up very well. This girl was so beautiful and stunning. What did it matter if she was sitting next to her son? It would be great if this was my daughter-in-law.

Subconsciously, she looked at Jiang Jinyu the way a mother-in-law looks at her daughter-in-law. She found that although Jiang Jinyu was extremely beautiful, the clothes he was wearing were not of any famous brand. If that was really possible, her son would not be worthy of her either. You should go.

Liu Xiaorong didn't know that Jiang Jinyu was wearing cheap clothes on purpose. He didn't want to put too much pressure on Tao An. It was relatively simple and easy to approach.

"Mom, let me introduce you. This is Zhu Dapeng, and that is his fiancée Liu Xiaoxiao. They are getting married at the end of the year. They are my high school classmates. This is also a high school classmate. His name is Jiang Jinyu. He is my student at that time. "Monarch", Tao An introduced people Liu Xiaorong didn't know one by one.

Liu Xiaorong immediately said enthusiastically: "It's you. Jin Zhu has often mentioned you, but I haven't had the chance to meet you before. You are all very good. If you play, Auntie won't disturb you. Why don't you say anything?"

After saying that, she nodded and left with a smile. She didn't treat him any differently. She still had this sense of propriety. Young people nowadays are very sensitive.

In fact, she was so curious that she wanted to ask Jiang Jinyu thoroughly about the number of people in his family and the acres of land.

When Liu Xiaorong left the private room, her head was filled with Jiang Jinyu's stunning look. She felt uncomfortable all over and planned to share it with Tao Youlin...

In the private room, several people did not stand silent because of Liu Xiaorong's appearance. Instead, they started to discuss it with great interest, because Liu Xiaorong was so beautiful. Although it was a bit inappropriate for a junior to say this, it was a fact. With that skin, only Jiang was present. Jinyu is one step ahead.

I don't know why, although I haven't had much communication with Tao An's mother before, or even said a few words, Jiang Jinyu just feels that the way Tao An's mother looks at her is a little meaningful, probably because of the girl's first love. Six senses, I secretly thought that Auntie could see some of my little thoughts? Then she became even more worried and nervous.

In order to calm down, she stood up and apologized: "You guys go on, I'm going to the bathroom."

Everyone didn't think anything of it. Zhao Shihan asked: "Is the squad leader drunk? Do you need me to accompany you?"

"No, no, I'm fine." After rejecting her kindness, Jiang Jinyu left with steady steps, holding her handbag.

When she came to the bathroom, Jiang Jinyu didn't go to the toilet. Instead, she patted her face with water to calm down. After calming down, she opened her handbag and prepared to wipe her face with a tissue, but she suddenly touched two bags that her mother had secretly put away. balloon.

At first, she was stunned for a moment and didn't react. When she realized what it was, she immediately let go with a tremble all over, her face red as blood, and she wanted to scream and find a crack in the ground to crawl in.

"Mom, how could you do this?" Jiang Jinyu almost cried, not realizing that this was his mother's fault.

After struggling for a moment, she planned to go back to her mother to 'settle the score'. However, by some strange coincidence, she did not throw away the two balloons, even though they were not needed, well, they probably wouldn't be needed in the short term.

After calming down, she returned to the private room as if nothing had happened and continued eating and drinking with Tao An and the others.

They drank to their heart's content, and the girls didn't force it. Anyway, everyone was happy and in the same mood. After eating and drinking, Liu Haochen shouted about the next show and everyone should sing, but no one refused, even Jiang Jinyu, she wanted to be with Tao Ando is getting along well.

After eating the longevity noodles, Tao An was naturally not disappointed. After signing the order, he moved on to the next game. As for the gifts, he left them at the front desk and sent a message to his parents to take with them when they go back.

"Who is the beauty following the little boss?"

“I don’t know, it’s so stunning and beautiful.”

"Don't tell me, they are so perfect together. Sister Li, you are right. We really have no chance. They are a match made in heaven. My previous thoughts felt like a crime."

Several of the greeters murmured as they left.

"Old Tao, you saw it, I didn't lie to you, that girl is beautiful, and she is very beautiful. She looks like she is good at giving birth."

"What are you thinking about? Don't make random guesses if you don't know anything. Besides, even if that is really possible, I always feel that your son is a bit confused about that girl. I'm afraid she's not worthy of her."

"Why don't they match each other? That girl doesn't look like she comes from a very wealthy family, and she wears quite civilian clothes."

"You don't understand, you know how it feels. I always feel that that girl is not simple. Regardless of her clothes, her temperament and self-cultivation are definitely not something that ordinary people can cultivate."

"Don't tell me, your mention of it really has some flavor!"

In the corner, Liu Xiaorong and Tao Youlin looked at the direction Tao An and the others were leaving and whispered...
