Rebirth or let the ungrateful wolf be born

Chapter 167: Dinner with Different Thoughts

When Yu Xiufeng saw Li Ji, he was completely stunned. He couldn't believe that the food king who was praised as a god in their circle actually appeared here.

Li Ji was also surprised. He didn't expect to meet his childhood friend Yu Xiufeng in this place.

“Lao Li!”

“Lao Yu!”

The two shouted in unison, with surprise smiles on their faces. Then they held each other's hands tightly and shook them vigorously, as if to convey the joy of reunion to each other's hearts.

At this moment, Li Ji didn't even need any excuses or reasons, and naturally integrated into the dinner. He felt that all this was destined, a chance given to him by God. Jiang Jie stood aside, curiously watching the two people's clasped hands, her eyes moving back and forth, as if trying to figure out the relationship between them. Finally, Yu Xiufeng loosened his hand from Li Ji, then put his arm around Jiang Jie's slender waist and walked towards Li Ji and introduced: "Old Li, this is my wife Jiang Jie."

Li Ji nodded without hesitation, indicating that he understood. He smiled and said to Yu Xiufeng: "I have heard that you have a talented and capable wife. Today I see that she is indeed worthy of her reputation!" His tone was full of praise and admiration, which made people feel happy. Jiang Jie smiled and responded: "Boss Li, you are too kind. It is an honor to receive such praise from you." There was a hint of humility and politeness in her words, making the whole scene seem harmonious and harmonious.

The three of them invited Zeng Ping and his wife to come into the private room that had been reserved long ago and sit at a spacious and comfortable dining table. As soon as they sat down, the waiter enthusiastically served exquisite dishes and fine wines, allowing everyone to enjoy this delicious feast.

Although Li Ji had never met Jiang Jie before, he was deeply impressed by her through this chance encounter. She was not only beautiful, but also smart and talented. She was indeed an admirable woman. For Yu Xiufeng, it was also a blessing to be able to reunite with his good friend on such a special occasion and introduce his beloved wife to him, especially after hearing Jiang Jie said that she and Li Ji had signed a work contract.

Jiang Jie smiled and said, "Boss, are you exaggerating? I've been hearing this all the time." In her mind, she and Yu Xiufeng had only known each other for about a month, so how could he keep saying this.

Li Ji laughed, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and patted his chest and said, "It's not an exaggeration. Although Lao Yu has never brought his wife out in our circle, he always mentions the name of his wife Jiang Jie." He was smart enough not to say the words that followed the name, otherwise it would be too hurtful to Lao Yu's reputation.

"Jiang Jie doesn't allow me to drink too much. Jiang Jie doesn't allow me to go to KTV. Jiang Jie's nose is very sensitive to the smell of cigarettes." This has been said for more than ten years, and it has never changed. They all remember it by heart. This is the reason why Yu Xiufeng doesn't smoke or pick up girls when he is with them, and doesn't drink too much.

Jiang Jie only took one look at Li Ji and understood why she was so famous among Yu Xiufeng's old friends.

"I didn't expect that I'm so famous!" Jiang Jie glanced at Yu Xiufeng and said this deliberately.

Zeng Ping and his wife standing aside were somewhat surprised. Jiang Jie had only been away for more than a month, but she was already so famous in Mr. Yu's circle of friends? Could there be any misunderstanding? When Jiang Jie said that she was married, Zeng Ping didn't believe it, but now after hearing what Boss Li said, he couldn't help but start to doubt that maybe they were really a couple, and not a fake marriage. Thinking of this, Zeng Ping smiled and asked, "Then, Boss Li and Jiang Jie should have known each other for many years, right?"

Li Ji was not familiar with Zeng Ping. After hearing his question, he answered very politely: "Well... we have never met, I just heard her name."

Although Li Ji did not know Zeng Ping, from the actions of Yu Xiufeng and Jiang Qing inviting him over, he could tell that he had a close relationship with his old friend and his wife. Therefore, he answered Zeng Ping's questions very seriously, which was also a basic courtesy and respect. Zeng Ping nodded to show his understanding, then smiled and stopped talking.

However, he was very confused. According to Li Ji, he had known Jiang Jie for more than ten years, but in fact, ten years ago, Jiang Jie was still lying on a hospital bed, unconscious. This time contradiction made Zeng Ping fall into deep thought. Is there any other hidden story?

Jiang Jie didn't think about these, she just listened to their greetings with a serious smile. Sitting with Zeng's wife and chatting quietly, she had always maintained a conservative attitude towards Zeng Ping and his wife, and didn't say much to them, but they were the only people she was familiar with here. In fact, there were also nurses and doctors here, but they were not in Jiang Jie's memory. Therefore, only the couple were the people she knew here. After two interactions, they left a good impression on Jiang Jie, not as hateful as she remembered. However, it was not easy for Jiang Jie to quickly eliminate her prejudice against them. After all, because of the couple, she became a vegetable for twenty years, and such a result was really hard to let go.

"I'm really happy for you to meet such an excellent man like Mr. Yu." Zeng's wife's eyes were slightly red. She was really happy for Jiang Jie, and she felt relieved after seeing Mr. Yu. The best outcome was that their family could remain together.

"Old Yu, I didn't expect you to show up here just after I signed the contract with your wife today." Li Ji poured wine for the two of them with emotion. Yu Xiufeng looked at the wine in the glass and felt very uncomfortable. He felt that he was a step late today. If he had arrived earlier, he might have been able to stop his wife from signing the contract.

Li Ji saw the expression on Yu Xiufeng's face and asked curiously, "Why? Don't you agree with her doing this job?"

Yu Xiufeng shook his head and said, "Of course I don't agree! It's very hard for a woman to travel around the country."

Li Ji laughed out loud after hearing this. "Haha, Lao Yu, you are too conservative. Our company's treatment is so good, you should be happy for Jiang Jie."

Yu Xiufeng sighed helplessly, "Alas, it's useless for me to disagree. You know, for so many years, my words have no say in the family. She is the only one who controls me, but I can't make decisions for her. But as long as she is happy, I will still support her behind her back."

Jiang Jie just smiled and said nothing. She heard Yu Xiufeng describe them as an old married couple in front of outsiders, but in fact it was not the case. However, she did not expose him. This was only because he said that her soul was one with his, and she could not verify this.

The group had a pleasant dinner together. Although Zeng Ping might not be as happy as others, at least on the surface, he remained in good condition. No one could detect his true feelings. Even Zeng's wife thought that Zeng Ping felt guilty about Jiang Jie just like she did, and that he could also feel relieved and happy that Jiang Jie had found her own happiness, just like her.

On the way home, Zeng Ping suddenly asked his wife, "In the private room, Mr. Yu said that he and Jiang Jie have been together for more than ten years. What do you think of this?"

Zeng's wife smiled and replied, "I think he might just be joking. Jiang Jie has been living here all her life and has just been away for more than a month. How could she have been with him for more than ten years?" She continued, "You are the only one who would take this matter so seriously."

"But that boss Li also said the same thing, saying that Jiang Jie was a well-known strong woman in their circle. They often heard Jiang Jie's name from Mr. Yu. The two of them met by chance in the private room and had no chance of corroborating their testimony." Zeng Ping said to his wife very seriously.
