The road to self-cultivation of second-hand goods
Work related
, the lower right corner of the card is a narcissus with a few butterflies flying scatteredly on it.
Ye Xiao took it, and put it into the bracelet of Liusheng. "Master Xiao, thank you for the gift you sent last time." Although it was a word of thanks, Mo Xi's tone did not change, nor did he say whether he liked it or not.Perhaps in his eyes, the important thing about the gift from the superior is not whether he likes it or not, nor what is given, but whether it is given or not.
Even though it was a random gift, Ye Xiao didn't feel embarrassed. He and Mo Xi didn't know each other very well, so it would be nice to remember to bring them a gift.Seeing this, Mo Xi didn't say much, just said: "Master Xiao, this is your first time to paint willows, and you are not familiar with this place, do you need my subordinates to show you around?"
"No need, my friend and I can just walk around by ourselves, you can go to work." Ye Xiao waved her hand, saying that it would be more interesting to bump around by myself.Mo Xi didn't insist, nodded, and said to Zhang Wenqing, "You are Mr. Zhang Wenqing, right? I'm Mo Xi, the person in charge of Hualiu. In the future, if Mr. Zhang encounters problems in Hualiu, he can directly contact the manager here."
Zhang Wenqing quickly nodded his thanks. To be honest, he was a little surprised that Mo Xi would talk to him. After all, Mo Xi ignored him as soon as he came in, obviously not paying attention to his family status.And the reason why I tell him this now is probably because of Ye Xiao, because I am Ye Xiao's friend, so I take special care of him, right?
"Then, Young Master Xiao, I'll excuse myself first. If you need anything, you can come to me anytime." Mo Xi saluted and retreated very effectively.It wasn't until Mo Xi gently closed the door that Zhang Wenqing threw Ye Xiao onto the sofa, pinched his neck and forced him to ask, "The painting of willows is actually your family's property. Tell me honestly, what exactly does your brother do?"
Ye Xiao pushed Zhang Wenqing away effortlessly, settled down and sat down, and said solemnly: "Actually, I don't know very well. At present, I know that the Ye Group is my brother's property..." Zhang Wenqing's face was once again ferocious upon hearing the words He rushed forward, "Is one Ye Group not enough?! What else do you want? Is it necessary to hit people like this?"
The two fought for a while before tidying up their clothes and leaving the lounge.It was their first time to paint willows, and they didn't know the layout of painting willows, but they didn't want to know, and it was obviously more interesting to enjoy the fun of exploring.The two tossed coins to determine the direction, and when they went up to the second floor, a teahouse named "Chaxiang" appeared in front of them.
Pushing open the antique-style wooden door, the two of them heard the melodious sound of the piano echoing in the quiet tea room.Finding a secluded corner to sit down, Ye Xiao refused the tea master's service, picked up the tea set and started making tea.Ye Xiao majored in ancient literature when he was in university. Although there was no tea art class, Ye Xiao chose this class because of his interest in tea art.
When he first took this course, Ye Xiao also worked hard to study it, and even his professor at the time said that he was going to take the national tea art teacher qualification certificate, but Ye Xiao was not very interested in the examination, so he didn't take the exam .After the class was over, Ye Xiao slowly let go of it, and today is probably a feeling of love.
Not only tea art, he was interested in music, chess, calligraphy and painting as a major in ancient literature.It's a pity that although he has learned Go, he really can't show his chess skills.As for calligraphy, he had practiced brush calligraphy for a period of time, and his writing was fairly eye-catching.He has never been talented in painting, whether it is Western painting or Chinese painting.
Only Qin, because of the conditions, he had no chance to contact him at all, so he kept it in his heart all the time.Although Ye Xiao's school is ordinary in Haishi, there are still many student associations, and there are also many associations with various musical instruments including ancient music, but excluding guqin, there are many who can play guzheng.It's a pity that Ye Xiao always thinks that Guqin is the voice of a gentleman, and Zheng is obscene and indecent in his eyes.
In fact, it's not that Ye Xiao wants to discriminate against Zheng, it's a TV series called a certain pig princess that is popular in the summer.Although this TV series is very famous, Ye Xiao actually only got a general idea of the plot, and didn't watch it from beginning to end.But with just a glimpse, he saw a girl named Hua sitting in front of the zither and playing obscene songs with a resentful expression on her face. She was singing while playing, who was she trying to scare in the middle of the night? ?Since then, he has had a prejudice against Zheng...
Fortunately, as soon as he heard the girl sing that faint and resentful song, he immediately turned to the channel. If he heard the people in the back regard the zither as the qin in the qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, his prejudice against the zither would probably be even greater.But these are not the main point. The important point is that when he heard the sound of the piano today, he suddenly remembered that he has the conditions to learn the piano now, so he can finally realize his wish.
Before he was happy to play, Ye Xiao suddenly remembered that although he has the financial conditions to learn the piano now, it seems that he doesn't have the time... Before Ye Xiao recovered from the great loss, she heard Zhang Wenqing Surprised voice: "I can't tell, Ye Xiao, I didn't expect you to know how to tea art."
No wonder Zhang Wenqing was surprised. In his impression, even Ye Xiao was the kind of spoiled child who didn't need to understand anything as long as he enjoyed the pampering of his parents and elder brothers.It's hard to imagine that Ye Xiao can master such a skill like tea art that requires hard work. It seems that he doesn't know much about Ye Xiao yet.
Ye Xiao quickly poured tea for Zhang Wenqing, and at the same time glanced at him quickly, "I said Zhang Wenqing, what do you mean, you, can I not learn tea art? Tell you, I majored in ancient literature in college." Ye Xiao's The sound was not loud, but at such a close distance, it was enough for Zhang Wenqing to hear clearly.
Although the tea art class was only an optional course for him in college, the teacher who taught them was very responsible and took them to a tea house for practice, so he was familiar with the rules of the tea house.And not to make loud noises is the most basic one, so after entering "Tea Fragrance", he even lowered his footsteps a lot. After all, it is his own property, and he can't smash it.
Zhang Wenqing blinked when she heard the words, and for a moment she couldn't understand that the classical Chinese major still taught tea making, right?Although he is not a major in ancient literature, he also knows that this seems to be a major in pure literature. It is possible to teach ancient tea culture. It seems that there is no professor who has such a leisurely attitude in teaching tea making?
Ye Xiao turned her head arrogantly, not intending to answer Zhang Wenqing's question.But as soon as Ye Xiao turned his head, he met a pair of extremely aggressive black eyes. He froze for a moment, frowned and looked at the owner of the eyes, making sure that he didn't know the other person at all, so he would over his head without any pressure and recognize the other person. Must be mistaken.
Ye Xiao didn't know that that person was the man who had been staring at him in the bar.When the man ordered someone to check Ye Xiao's identity, but found nothing, he knew that Ye Xiao's identity might not be easy.Although he didn't want to give up just like that, but he was too confident to find Ye Xiao on the spot, so that later he didn't know where to find someone.
Although he felt a little regretful, the man still had to let go of this matter.What he didn't expect was that he, who had already let go of Ye Xiao, met Ye Xiao in this newly opened club by coincidence. Should it be said that the earth is too small, or should it be said that the two of them are destined to each other?No matter what, he finally met Ye Xiao again, of course the man will not let go of this rare opportunity.
The man got up without hesitation, walked to Ye Xiao and sat down, turned around and smiled evilly at Ye Xiao's side face, "We meet again." Zhang Wenqing glanced at the man suspiciously, and Ye Xiao The corners of his eyes twitched, because this line was so similar to the one used by the prodigal son in the novel when he molested the heroine or other good women.
Although because of Zhang Wenqing, Ye Xiao already knew that a man from a good family could be molested, but the question is, shouldn't molesting this kind of thing happen in a place like a bar?Is an elegant place like a teahouse also a place where such things happen frequently?Puzzled, Ye Xiao decided to be honest, "Sir, have you read too many novels? Besides, this is a teahouse, not a bar. You have mistaken the location where the plot takes place."

☆、22 Chang Qingyi's Misunderstanding
Zhang Wenqing looked at Ye Xiao adoringly, and felt that what he said was so philosophical, he really deserved to be his best friend!The smile on the man's face froze for a while, then he pretended not to hear what he said, and continued calmly: "You may not remember me, I saw you at the banquet last time. Let me introduce myself, my name is Chang Qingyi. "
"Ah?" Ye Xiao looked at the man with a blank expression. He didn't remember what the banquet was at all, but he replied politely when he heard the man's self-introduction, "Oh, hello, my name is Ye Xiao." Seeing that he was confused when he was not in the state, he immediately threw the worship that had just risen out of the sky, leaned over and reminded softly, "The night banquet is the bar we went to last time."
Ye Xiao suddenly realized something and looked at Chang Qingyi, looked left and right twice, and was at a loss again.It was true that he remembered the bar, but why didn't he remember seeing this person?Moreover, he remembered that he didn't stay in the bar for long and left. How did this person notice him?Even if they actually met each other at the bar, it was just a chance meeting, and they didn't even say a word. Is it necessary for this person to rush over to say hello to him?
Even if you are enthusiastic, you should be more familiar with Zhang Wenqing, who often goes to night banquet bars, right?Ye Xiao looked at Chang Qingyi vigilantly, as the saying goes, "If you don't have anything to show courtesy to, it's either adultery or robbery", this person who suddenly came to strike up a conversation for no reason must have an intention.At this time, Ye Xiao had already forgotten the judgment she had just made to moles a man from a good family, and only felt that Chang Qingyi must have no good intentions.
Chang Qingyi raised his forehead again, Ye Xiao's defensive expression made him feel very frustrated, does he look like a bad guy?Even people who think that Ye Xiao has no intentions and puts all thoughts on their faces feel that he has no good intentions.But in fact, he really didn't have any bad intentions, uh, wanting to pursue Ye Xiao shouldn't count, right?
"I was sitting in a dark corner that day. You may not have seen it, but you left a deep impression on me. It's a pity that I was just going to meet you, and you left with your friends, I've always been very regretful. I didn't expect that we would meet here today, it seems that we are indeed destined." Chang Qingyi didn't want to admit defeat, so he cheered up and said.
Ye Xiao blinked, not sure if what Chang Qingyi said meant what he imagined.Although it sounds like that's right, if you guess wrong, how embarrassing it would be to be regarded as a narcissist.Somewhat at a loss, Ye Xiao looked at Zhang Wenqing for help. He thought that Zhang Wenqing, who played in the world, should be better at dealing with such things than he was.
Zhang Wenqing also knew that Ye Xiao was actually a very pure lamb, so in order not to be destroyed by Xi Ye because of spoiling Ye Xiao, he took this task as his duty. "Mr. Chang, I am very moved by your persistence. But unfortunately, my friend is not from the circle. The reason why he appeared at the banquet that day was just a prank on me."
"It's such a pity that such a lovely person like Mr. Ye is not destined for me." Chang Qingyi said disappointedly, and then changed the topic, "But you can be a friend if you can't be a lover, Mr. Ye might as well treat me as a stranger who is destined How about getting acquainted with someone?" Although Chang Qingyi said he was disappointed, but judging from his attitude, he knew that he did not give up.
Ye Xiao frowned, he was not an idiot, of course he wouldn't believe Chang Qingyi just wanted to be friends.But he has never been very good at rejecting others, especially this kind of request that is not too much, even Zhang Wenqing is not good at making decisions for Ye Xiao in this matter.After hesitating for a while, thinking that he would leave with Xi Ye tomorrow, Ye Xiao still agreed to Chang Qingyi's request.
Anyway, he's going to stay in a place isolated from the world for a month or two, so it doesn't matter if he agrees or not, maybe when he comes back, Chang Qingyi has already forgotten him.A person like Chang Qingyi who can get in and out of Hualiu must be tall, handsome and rich, he doesn't believe how loyal and persistent this kind of person is in their feelings.
If it is said that he has been with Chang Qingyi for many years, then there is still this possibility, a stranger who has only met twice and said no more than ten sentences, Ye Xiao shook his head.He just affirmed that Chang Qingyi's affection for him was just a momentary affection, and it was nothing more than the natural possessiveness of a person of that background, and his feelings could not be described.
The three exchanged their contact information, and knowing that it was their first time to paint willows, Chang Qingyi proposed to be the guide of Ye Xiao and Zhang Wenqing.The two reluctantly agreed when the refusal was invalid.In fact, this is also normal, Ye Xiao needless to say, but just out of school, although Zhang Wenqing is more sophisticated than Ye Xiao, in fact, they are just fooling around, how could their skills be comparable to the wily and calculating Chang Qingyi.
Next to the tea room is the chess room, which is divided into several areas, including go, chess, chess and so on.Ye Xiao went in and wandered around, lacking interest, mainly because although he knew all of them, unfortunately, he only had a superficial understanding of each of them.As for Zhang Wenqing, he was even less interested in what he said belonged to the literary youth.
The chess room used to be a studio, and like the chess room, the studio is also divided into several areas according to the painting schools.Although Ye Xiao has no talent in painting, she has put in a lot of effort in appreciation, so she walked around the whole area.After this trip, he suddenly felt that the trip was worthwhile. There are only works of famous artists on display in the studio, and there are also some works of new painters with unique styles.
Seeing the satisfied expression on Ye Xiao's face, Chang Qingyi only found it funny.Contrary to Ye Xiao's guess, his background is actually not good. As an illegitimate child who struggled to survive when he was young, it is only hard work and luck that can achieve today's achievements.Of course, it was also because he was cruel enough to deal with his so-called relatives without any mercy.
On the contrary, in Chang Qingyi's eyes, Ye Xiao is the one who is born noble and has nothing to worry about.The reason why he made this judgment was because during the banquet, the bewilderment in Ye Xiao's eyes was obviously the first time he went to that kind of place, not only gay bars, he probably had never even been to bars.In this day and age, no one in their twenties has ever been to a bar, and there is probably no other explanation for it except strict tutoring.
And Ye Xiao's ability to step into Hualiu made Chang Qingyi more affirmed his guess.In high-end clubs with a membership system like Hualiu, those who can get a membership card, except for those who are really talented and make a fortune by themselves, like him, are the rich second generation with outstanding family background like Zhang Wenqing.And Ye Xiao, no matter how you look at it, doesn't look like a shrewd person, naturally there is only the second possibility.
When Ye Xiao was in the teahouse, her leisurely expression followed the rules of the teahouse, and she knew that she often went in and out of this kind of place.Teahouses are not the favorite places of ordinary nouveau riche rich second generations, even if there are a few arty people, they will not behave properly like Ye Xiao, and only a scholarly family or a wealthy family can cultivate this kind of demeanor.
When Ye Xiao entered the chess room, he casually acted like he didn't like chess and was not good at it, but he didn't behave awkwardly. Instead, he behaved very naturally, as if he should just be bad at chess.This is also completely different from ordinary people who face fields that they are not good at, or feel embarrassed, or slap their faces to look fat. It is a style of everyone.
And in the studio, Ye Xiao fully showed her connotation and self-cultivation, but it can be seen that Ye Xiao has a certain level of appreciation not only for paintings, but also for other works of art.Ye Xiao may not be able to draw, but that's not important, no child from that family needs to make a living by drawing, and appreciation is a more important skill.
Ye Xiao's appreciation level may not be very high, it doesn't matter, there are always masters in this field who are willing to serve him when he really needs it.The reason why you need to appreciate this skill is because people of this status are often exposed to these things. If you don't understand anything, it will be ridiculous.Of course, it is not necessary to know too much, it is enough to be higher than the level of ordinary people.
Ye Xiao didn't know Chang Qingyi's evaluation of him at all, if he knew, he would laugh out loud.God knows that he often goes to the tea room because of his experience in college. As for his performance in the chess room, it is also because he always believes that people are not good at things. Even the best people cannot be omnipotent. It's so normal.
As for the level of appreciation, in addition to his university major, it is also because of his interest.He actually has a wide range of interests, even if these interests can't last for a long time, but the problem is that he is actually a bit obsessive-compulsive, and even if he has lost interest in what he decides to do, he will force himself to continue until it is completed.
It is also for this reason that he has made certain achievements in many places that he is interested in. Although the level may not be very high, he is still better than ordinary people.As for tolerance, it's purely because he's been with Xi Ye for a long time, and Xi Ye is the kind of person he admires, so he has learned some of it consciously or unconsciously.
In addition, during this period of time, there are people with a temperament like Su Zheyu around him, no matter how casual he is, he doesn't know that he can't be too cowardly, otherwise it would be too embarrassing.Moreover, he already has the understanding that he is a cultivator. As a superior cultivator, does he need to be uneasy in front of any mortal?
Although Ye Xiao never looked down on mortals because of her identity as a cultivator, whether it was because of her simple mind or because she had become a cultivator for too short a time.But no matter what, Ye Xiao is already a cultivator. Ordinary people are actually not from the same world to him, so he has no reason to be nervous when facing anyone.
The author has something to say: I've been under a lot of pressure recently, and my father doesn't let me touch the computer... I can't afford all kinds of injuries!
☆、23 Who treats guests
After playing in Hualiu for a day, when the sky was getting dark, Chang Qingyi looked at his watch and naturally proposed the invitation, "Ye Xiao, Wen Qing, I wonder if I have the honor to invite you two to dinner?" Chang Qingyi I also know that although the two of them seemed to be having a good time just now, this journey is almost over, and the possibility of continuing at night is about zero.
Chang Qingyi's natural tone made it difficult for Ye Xiao and Zhang Wenqing to refuse. Thinking it was just a dinner, they didn't care about it anymore.For ordinary people, perhaps treating guests to dinner is often a sign of asking others, but for them, it is just a way to establish a preliminary relationship, and it doesn't matter whether it is human or not.
"Okay, where to eat?" Seeing that Zhang Wenqing also nodded, Ye Xiao asked cheerfully.Although he knew that the possibility of the two of them refusing was unlikely, Chang Qingyi's mood was much brighter when he actually heard Ye Xiao agree. He thought about it carefully, and chose a famous Chinese restaurant nearby, "How is the plumbing in Spring River?"
Chunjiang Shuinuan is a well-known chain hotel. The word "Chunjiang Shuinuan" is taken from a famous seven-character quatrain about diet by Su Shi, "Three or two branches of peach blossoms outside the bamboo, the Prophet of Spring River Plumbing Duck. It's the time when the puffer fish wants to come up."The reason why Chang Qingyi chose this hotel was because from Ye Xiao's understanding of traditional culture, he might prefer Chinese food.
As for Chunjiang Shuinuan, not only is the Chinese food good, but it is also very old-fashioned, which probably suits Ye Xiao's taste better.As for Zhang Wenqing's preferences, Chang Qingyi said, it's not that he doesn't think about it, but that he doesn't know.Although he thought innocently in his heart, Chang Qingyi was slightly taken aback by Zhang Wenqing's strange look.
Zhang Wenqing quickly looked away.In fact, the reason why he thinks so much about Chang Qingyi can't be because of that childish reason, but because "Chunjiang Plumbing" is an industry under the Ye Group.That is to say, Chang Qingyi not only wanted to treat Ye Xiao to dinner, but also planned to send money to Ye Xiao and his family's property by the way, so he really was taken advantage of by not explaining.
But Ye Xiao didn't know this. Although it was a bit strange to say, Ye Xiao actually didn't know as much about Ye's Group as Zhang Wenqing.He may know some of the rumors about the head office. As for the industries under the Ye family, because there are too many, he doesn't know much about it.So Ye Xiao agreed naturally, "It's up to you to decide, I'm not familiar with this side."
After leaving Hualiu, the three of them drove to "Chunjiang Plumbing", Ye Xiao still took Zhang Wenqing's car.After separating from Chang Qingyi, Zhang Wenqing became more natural. While driving the car, he asked casually, "Hey, I said Ye Xiao, do you really not know or are you pretending not to know?" It doesn't sound good to hear someone invite you to dinner at your own home, so Zhang Wenqing still decided to take this opportunity to remind his friends.
Ye Xiao was taken aback, "What's the matter?" "It's Chunjiang Plumbing, don't you really know that this is an industry under the Ye Group?" Zhang Wenqing's tone was very helpless, she didn't know about her family's industry, and she wanted someone else's Reminder... If Zhang Wenqing was not very aware of Ye Xiao's ambiguity in certain matters, he might really think he was faking it.
"Ah?! Spring River Plumbing is owned by the Ye Group? Why didn't you tell me earlier, what should I do now?" Ye Xiao was shocked and looked at Zhang Wenqing sadly.Although he doesn't like socializing, he still knows the reason why he didn't let others treat him to dinner at his home.It's just that the promise has already been agreed, so it's not good to go and tell Chang Qingyi to change places now.
In case Chang Qingyi asked him the reason for his sudden repentance, how would he answer? If the truth is told, Chang Qingyi would not think that he was playing tricks on him, after all, if someone told you that he didn't remember what his family's property was, it was a person I won't believe it.Maybe he would think he was showing off on purpose.But he was really wronged, even he had just found out that the Ye Group was Xi Ye.
Zhang Wenqing's head is full of black lines. If you don't remember your own property clearly, you still blame me for not reminding you. What's the point?However, it is impossible to really do nothing about my own problems, and it is not a big problem, "It's not a big problem, just count it as your treat later, do you want to call and inform Chunjiang Plumbing first?" principal?"
"That's a good idea, you're still smart." Ye Xiao immediately patted Zhang Wenqing on the shoulder with a bright face, took out her mobile phone and called Su Zheyu to ask about the person in charge of Chunjiang Plumbing.Knowing that the person in charge of Chunjiang Plumbing is also Mo Xi, Su Zheyu didn't bother him, and called Mo Xi directly to make arrangements, Ye Xiao just needs to go over.
It only took ten minutes to travel from Hualiu to Chunjiang Plumbing, and they arrived soon. After parking the car, Ye Xiao walked into Hualiu together with Zhang Wenqing and Chang Qingyi.While Ye Xiao was still thinking about what Mo Xi would arrange, a middle-aged man in a suit greeted him with a smile on his face, "Master Xiao, I am Lin Yin, the manager of Chunjiang Plumbing."
Ye Xiao shook hands with Lin Yin expressionlessly. It wasn't that he had a problem with Lin Yin, but he was never good at fake smiles, and he didn't know what was funny about strangers. "Hello, Manager Lin." After a pause, Ye Xiao asked curiously, "If I remember correctly, this is the first time we met, how did you recognize me?"
"Hehe, Mr. Mo Xi sent me a photo of Young Master Xiao, and asked me to tell you that he couldn't come over due to something, so he asked me to entertain him. I hope you don't take offense." Lin Yin didn't mind Ye Xiao's naive question either. , still answered with a smile on his face, and by the way, he also sued Mo Xi.Of course, he didn't know if Mo Xi really had something to do.
Ye Xiao waved his hand and said indifferently, "I wouldn't eat without Mo Xi. You take me to tell Deacon Mo Xi, I don't care." The smile on Lin Yin's face deepened, and he bowed deeply: " Thank you, Master Xiao, for your understanding. By the way, Master Xiao, these two are your friends, how do you call them?"
Zhang Wenqing shook hands with Lin Yin graciously, "Hello, Manager Lin, I'm Ye Xiao's good friend Zhang Wenqing." "Hello, Mr. Zhang, I heard Mr. Mo Xi mention you." Lin Yin shook hands enthusiastically She shook Zhang Wenqing's hand, then looked at Chang Qingyi on the other side, "Then who is this gentleman?"
"Hello, Manager Lin, I'm Chang Qingyi." Chang Qingyi was a little dumbfounded when he greeted Lin Yin. Lin Yin was not only the manager of the Haishi branch of "Chunjiang Plumbing", but also the manager of the entire "Chunjiang Plumbing". manager.There are not many people in Haishi who can be greeted by Lin Yin in person, and Ye Xiao was unexpectedly one of them. It seems that his evaluation of Ye Xiao's family background should be improved.
"Oh, it's Mr. Chang's. Nice to meet you." Lin Yin obviously had heard of Chang Qingyi, "Master Xiao, the box is ready, are you going there now?" Ye Xiao asked about Chang Qingyi's identity A little curious, but also knowing that now is not the time to ask this, so he nodded and signaled Lin Yin to lead the way.
What Lin Yin prepared for Ye Xiao was a bamboo-themed box, and the name was "Xiaoxiang Song", which was obviously taken from the myths and legends of Ehuang and Nvying.Walking into the private room, you seem to walk into a world surrounded by bamboo, with screens embroidered with bamboo, bamboo murals, bamboo patterns on the tablecloth, potted plants and various bamboo products in the private room.
After the three of them sat down, Lin Yin took the menu from the waiter and placed it in front of the three of them respectively, "Master Xiao, do you need someone to play for the fun?" Although he was very polite to Zhang Wenqing and Chang Qingyi, but from the beginning At the end of the day, Lin Yin directly showed Ye Xiao's main attitude, and asked Ye Xiao's opinion on the decision of the matter without mentioning the other two.
As for Ye Xiao, he was not aware of this issue at all. When Lin Yin asked him for his opinion, he just said his own opinion, and he didn't mean to consult Zhang Wenqing and Chang Qingyi. "No, I like to be quieter." For example, Ye Xiao answered casually while flipping through the menu.This was mainly because he felt that Zhang Wenqing and Zhang Wenqing did not need to be polite. As for Chang Qingyi, he did not want to be polite.
Ye Xiao doesn't have any rules in ordering food, and he doesn't talk about the staple food, dessert and soup, as long as he looks at it and thinks he likes it, he will order it.So he ordered the most dishes, which also made Chang Qingyi start to doubt his self-cultivation. Master, would you order like this?But judging from Lin Yin's attitude, Ye Xiao must have an extraordinary family background.
Chang Qingyi was disturbing others there, but Zhang Wenqing didn't think about it so much. Seeing Ye Xiao like this, he casually ordered some things without politeness.This made Chang Qingyi suddenly realize that it was just the bad taste of these rich kids.However, seeing that Ye Xiao and Zhang Wenqing had already ordered so many dishes, he was a little bit hesitant. It was not because he was worried about the bill, but because he was not used to waste.
He is used to living a frugal life, even now he is considered rich and powerful, and he has formed mature values, and he is not used to wasting food.This is completely different from Ye Xiao, who was spoiled almost lawlessly by Xi Ye. Although Ye Xiao doesn't pursue luxury, he doesn't save money either. He does what he wants to do.
Chang Qingyi closed the menu and said to Lin Yin: "Manager Lin, that's fine, I don't have anything to order." Ye Xiao looked at Chang Qingyi after hearing this, and finally realized that it seems that Chang Qingyi should be asked to order first, after all, it is not easy to treat guests to dinner. I feel a little sorry for not letting the guests order.But looking at Chang Qingyi's natural expression, he didn't force it, and nodded to Lin Yin, indicating that it would be fine.
Lin Yin put away the menu, leaned forward and said, "Since this is the case, I will leave first, and the dishes will be served soon. Please enjoy, Master Xiao and the two of you. Master Xiao, please call me anytime if you need anything." Ye Xiao nodded After that, Lin Yin quietly exited the box and gently closed the door.
The author has something to say: I am still not used to this working time, and I am adjusting the time of codewords ~ so I edited and tweeted this week, plus this chapter, a total of four chapters ~ Sadly, two articles of this seat are on the list at the same time , there is another piece of vitality on the other side, tearful eyes
☆, 24 drivers and treats
There were only three people left in the box, Ye Xiao looked at Chang Qingyi with some embarrassment and said, "Chang Qingyi, I'm so sorry, I didn't ask you to order." Although he didn't have more than necessary affection for Chang Qingyi, But this does not conflict with his basic politeness.Although Xi Ye almost didn't care about him except for cultivation, he felt that basic self-cultivation was still necessary.
"It's okay." Chang Qingyi replied politely, suddenly felt that something was wrong, why did he feel that what Ye Xiao said to him was like what the host said to the guests?Wait, Ye Xiao's surname is Ye, and "Chunjiang Plumbing" belongs to Ye's group, is it possible?Chang Qingyi looked at Ye Xiao incredulously, "Could it be, this is your family's property?"
Ye Xiao scratched her head in embarrassment, "That's right, so don't be polite to me tonight." My family's property needs to be reminded to know, and Ye Xiao still feels a little embarrassing when she thinks about it. .However, Chang Qingyi misunderstood what he meant, the corner of his mouth twitched, please, is there anyone like him in this world?
He said he wanted to treat guests, but he actually invited him to someone else's house.Although this was also because he didn't know Ye Xiao's details, it still made him feel disillusioned for a moment when he said it, just like the feeling when he went to strike up a conversation with Ye Xiao and Ye Xiao replied with his words.Fortunately, his nerves were trained by Ye Xiao today, and after a while his face became stiff, as if nothing had happened.
After the dinner, Chang Qingyi took his leave as originally planned and separated from them.Sitting in the car, Zhang Wenqing said to Ye Xiao: "You really know how to attract love. I don't think this guy has given up on you. You should be more careful." Zhang Wenqing was a little depressed. How long did it take to seduce someone like Chang Qingyi, and Ye Xiao appeared at the banquet.
"Be careful of what?" Ye Xiao looked at Zhang Wenqing puzzled, he was leaving Haishi the day after tomorrow, he thought that Zhang Wenqing would not have forgotten about this matter.Zhang Wenqing was speechless, as expected Ye Xiao was still so unguarded towards people.Ye Xiao knew the idea of cutting off contact with Chang Qingyi through cold treatment, but some people were not so easy to get rid of.
"From the very beginning, I thought Chang Qingyi's name was familiar. I just remembered that he is the chairman of Qingping Group. Unlike us, Qingping Group was snatched by him with his own ability, and I also heard that This guy has a gangster background, so I'm afraid he's not as easy to deal with as you imagined." In desperation, Zhang Wenqing had no choice but to express his guess.
"It turns out that's the case. No wonder I always think that guy is a bit strange." Ye Xiao suddenly realized that he had always looked at Chang Qingyi a little disliked, not only because the other party came over to strike up a conversation against his own wishes, but also because Chang Qingyi always felt Something chilled him all over, but he couldn't figure out what it was.
Hearing Zhang Wenqing talk about Chang Qingyi's background, Ye Xiao finally understood that it might be something like the legendary murderous or evil spirit.Thinking about it this way, Ye Xiao hated that guy even more.Although his identity has changed, Ye Xiao is still a good citizen who abides by the law and remains indifferent to the dark side of society.
Seeing that Ye Xiao finally understood, Zhang Wenqing was also relieved.As long as Ye Xiao stays on guard against Chang Qingyi, Chang Qingyi should not be able to do anything to him given Ye Xiao's background.There is also a reason why Zhang Wenqing is so nervous about this matter. Apart from Ye Xiao being his good friend, it is also because he caused this matter.
Although Chang Qingyi was not introduced to Ye Xiao by him, the two times he met Chang Qingyi was at his suggestion, especially the first time was in a place like the Banquet Bar, which made Chang Qingyi misunderstand Ye Xiao's sexual orientation.Although later
Ye Xiao took it, and put it into the bracelet of Liusheng. "Master Xiao, thank you for the gift you sent last time." Although it was a word of thanks, Mo Xi's tone did not change, nor did he say whether he liked it or not.Perhaps in his eyes, the important thing about the gift from the superior is not whether he likes it or not, nor what is given, but whether it is given or not.
Even though it was a random gift, Ye Xiao didn't feel embarrassed. He and Mo Xi didn't know each other very well, so it would be nice to remember to bring them a gift.Seeing this, Mo Xi didn't say much, just said: "Master Xiao, this is your first time to paint willows, and you are not familiar with this place, do you need my subordinates to show you around?"
"No need, my friend and I can just walk around by ourselves, you can go to work." Ye Xiao waved her hand, saying that it would be more interesting to bump around by myself.Mo Xi didn't insist, nodded, and said to Zhang Wenqing, "You are Mr. Zhang Wenqing, right? I'm Mo Xi, the person in charge of Hualiu. In the future, if Mr. Zhang encounters problems in Hualiu, he can directly contact the manager here."
Zhang Wenqing quickly nodded his thanks. To be honest, he was a little surprised that Mo Xi would talk to him. After all, Mo Xi ignored him as soon as he came in, obviously not paying attention to his family status.And the reason why I tell him this now is probably because of Ye Xiao, because I am Ye Xiao's friend, so I take special care of him, right?
"Then, Young Master Xiao, I'll excuse myself first. If you need anything, you can come to me anytime." Mo Xi saluted and retreated very effectively.It wasn't until Mo Xi gently closed the door that Zhang Wenqing threw Ye Xiao onto the sofa, pinched his neck and forced him to ask, "The painting of willows is actually your family's property. Tell me honestly, what exactly does your brother do?"
Ye Xiao pushed Zhang Wenqing away effortlessly, settled down and sat down, and said solemnly: "Actually, I don't know very well. At present, I know that the Ye Group is my brother's property..." Zhang Wenqing's face was once again ferocious upon hearing the words He rushed forward, "Is one Ye Group not enough?! What else do you want? Is it necessary to hit people like this?"
The two fought for a while before tidying up their clothes and leaving the lounge.It was their first time to paint willows, and they didn't know the layout of painting willows, but they didn't want to know, and it was obviously more interesting to enjoy the fun of exploring.The two tossed coins to determine the direction, and when they went up to the second floor, a teahouse named "Chaxiang" appeared in front of them.
Pushing open the antique-style wooden door, the two of them heard the melodious sound of the piano echoing in the quiet tea room.Finding a secluded corner to sit down, Ye Xiao refused the tea master's service, picked up the tea set and started making tea.Ye Xiao majored in ancient literature when he was in university. Although there was no tea art class, Ye Xiao chose this class because of his interest in tea art.
When he first took this course, Ye Xiao also worked hard to study it, and even his professor at the time said that he was going to take the national tea art teacher qualification certificate, but Ye Xiao was not very interested in the examination, so he didn't take the exam .After the class was over, Ye Xiao slowly let go of it, and today is probably a feeling of love.
Not only tea art, he was interested in music, chess, calligraphy and painting as a major in ancient literature.It's a pity that although he has learned Go, he really can't show his chess skills.As for calligraphy, he had practiced brush calligraphy for a period of time, and his writing was fairly eye-catching.He has never been talented in painting, whether it is Western painting or Chinese painting.
Only Qin, because of the conditions, he had no chance to contact him at all, so he kept it in his heart all the time.Although Ye Xiao's school is ordinary in Haishi, there are still many student associations, and there are also many associations with various musical instruments including ancient music, but excluding guqin, there are many who can play guzheng.It's a pity that Ye Xiao always thinks that Guqin is the voice of a gentleman, and Zheng is obscene and indecent in his eyes.
In fact, it's not that Ye Xiao wants to discriminate against Zheng, it's a TV series called a certain pig princess that is popular in the summer.Although this TV series is very famous, Ye Xiao actually only got a general idea of the plot, and didn't watch it from beginning to end.But with just a glimpse, he saw a girl named Hua sitting in front of the zither and playing obscene songs with a resentful expression on her face. She was singing while playing, who was she trying to scare in the middle of the night? ?Since then, he has had a prejudice against Zheng...
Fortunately, as soon as he heard the girl sing that faint and resentful song, he immediately turned to the channel. If he heard the people in the back regard the zither as the qin in the qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, his prejudice against the zither would probably be even greater.But these are not the main point. The important point is that when he heard the sound of the piano today, he suddenly remembered that he has the conditions to learn the piano now, so he can finally realize his wish.
Before he was happy to play, Ye Xiao suddenly remembered that although he has the financial conditions to learn the piano now, it seems that he doesn't have the time... Before Ye Xiao recovered from the great loss, she heard Zhang Wenqing Surprised voice: "I can't tell, Ye Xiao, I didn't expect you to know how to tea art."
No wonder Zhang Wenqing was surprised. In his impression, even Ye Xiao was the kind of spoiled child who didn't need to understand anything as long as he enjoyed the pampering of his parents and elder brothers.It's hard to imagine that Ye Xiao can master such a skill like tea art that requires hard work. It seems that he doesn't know much about Ye Xiao yet.
Ye Xiao quickly poured tea for Zhang Wenqing, and at the same time glanced at him quickly, "I said Zhang Wenqing, what do you mean, you, can I not learn tea art? Tell you, I majored in ancient literature in college." Ye Xiao's The sound was not loud, but at such a close distance, it was enough for Zhang Wenqing to hear clearly.
Although the tea art class was only an optional course for him in college, the teacher who taught them was very responsible and took them to a tea house for practice, so he was familiar with the rules of the tea house.And not to make loud noises is the most basic one, so after entering "Tea Fragrance", he even lowered his footsteps a lot. After all, it is his own property, and he can't smash it.
Zhang Wenqing blinked when she heard the words, and for a moment she couldn't understand that the classical Chinese major still taught tea making, right?Although he is not a major in ancient literature, he also knows that this seems to be a major in pure literature. It is possible to teach ancient tea culture. It seems that there is no professor who has such a leisurely attitude in teaching tea making?
Ye Xiao turned her head arrogantly, not intending to answer Zhang Wenqing's question.But as soon as Ye Xiao turned his head, he met a pair of extremely aggressive black eyes. He froze for a moment, frowned and looked at the owner of the eyes, making sure that he didn't know the other person at all, so he would over his head without any pressure and recognize the other person. Must be mistaken.
Ye Xiao didn't know that that person was the man who had been staring at him in the bar.When the man ordered someone to check Ye Xiao's identity, but found nothing, he knew that Ye Xiao's identity might not be easy.Although he didn't want to give up just like that, but he was too confident to find Ye Xiao on the spot, so that later he didn't know where to find someone.
Although he felt a little regretful, the man still had to let go of this matter.What he didn't expect was that he, who had already let go of Ye Xiao, met Ye Xiao in this newly opened club by coincidence. Should it be said that the earth is too small, or should it be said that the two of them are destined to each other?No matter what, he finally met Ye Xiao again, of course the man will not let go of this rare opportunity.
The man got up without hesitation, walked to Ye Xiao and sat down, turned around and smiled evilly at Ye Xiao's side face, "We meet again." Zhang Wenqing glanced at the man suspiciously, and Ye Xiao The corners of his eyes twitched, because this line was so similar to the one used by the prodigal son in the novel when he molested the heroine or other good women.
Although because of Zhang Wenqing, Ye Xiao already knew that a man from a good family could be molested, but the question is, shouldn't molesting this kind of thing happen in a place like a bar?Is an elegant place like a teahouse also a place where such things happen frequently?Puzzled, Ye Xiao decided to be honest, "Sir, have you read too many novels? Besides, this is a teahouse, not a bar. You have mistaken the location where the plot takes place."
The author has something to say: In fact, these two are second-hand goods~
☆、22 Chang Qingyi's Misunderstanding
Zhang Wenqing looked at Ye Xiao adoringly, and felt that what he said was so philosophical, he really deserved to be his best friend!The smile on the man's face froze for a while, then he pretended not to hear what he said, and continued calmly: "You may not remember me, I saw you at the banquet last time. Let me introduce myself, my name is Chang Qingyi. "
"Ah?" Ye Xiao looked at the man with a blank expression. He didn't remember what the banquet was at all, but he replied politely when he heard the man's self-introduction, "Oh, hello, my name is Ye Xiao." Seeing that he was confused when he was not in the state, he immediately threw the worship that had just risen out of the sky, leaned over and reminded softly, "The night banquet is the bar we went to last time."
Ye Xiao suddenly realized something and looked at Chang Qingyi, looked left and right twice, and was at a loss again.It was true that he remembered the bar, but why didn't he remember seeing this person?Moreover, he remembered that he didn't stay in the bar for long and left. How did this person notice him?Even if they actually met each other at the bar, it was just a chance meeting, and they didn't even say a word. Is it necessary for this person to rush over to say hello to him?
Even if you are enthusiastic, you should be more familiar with Zhang Wenqing, who often goes to night banquet bars, right?Ye Xiao looked at Chang Qingyi vigilantly, as the saying goes, "If you don't have anything to show courtesy to, it's either adultery or robbery", this person who suddenly came to strike up a conversation for no reason must have an intention.At this time, Ye Xiao had already forgotten the judgment she had just made to moles a man from a good family, and only felt that Chang Qingyi must have no good intentions.
Chang Qingyi raised his forehead again, Ye Xiao's defensive expression made him feel very frustrated, does he look like a bad guy?Even people who think that Ye Xiao has no intentions and puts all thoughts on their faces feel that he has no good intentions.But in fact, he really didn't have any bad intentions, uh, wanting to pursue Ye Xiao shouldn't count, right?
"I was sitting in a dark corner that day. You may not have seen it, but you left a deep impression on me. It's a pity that I was just going to meet you, and you left with your friends, I've always been very regretful. I didn't expect that we would meet here today, it seems that we are indeed destined." Chang Qingyi didn't want to admit defeat, so he cheered up and said.
Ye Xiao blinked, not sure if what Chang Qingyi said meant what he imagined.Although it sounds like that's right, if you guess wrong, how embarrassing it would be to be regarded as a narcissist.Somewhat at a loss, Ye Xiao looked at Zhang Wenqing for help. He thought that Zhang Wenqing, who played in the world, should be better at dealing with such things than he was.
Zhang Wenqing also knew that Ye Xiao was actually a very pure lamb, so in order not to be destroyed by Xi Ye because of spoiling Ye Xiao, he took this task as his duty. "Mr. Chang, I am very moved by your persistence. But unfortunately, my friend is not from the circle. The reason why he appeared at the banquet that day was just a prank on me."
"It's such a pity that such a lovely person like Mr. Ye is not destined for me." Chang Qingyi said disappointedly, and then changed the topic, "But you can be a friend if you can't be a lover, Mr. Ye might as well treat me as a stranger who is destined How about getting acquainted with someone?" Although Chang Qingyi said he was disappointed, but judging from his attitude, he knew that he did not give up.
Ye Xiao frowned, he was not an idiot, of course he wouldn't believe Chang Qingyi just wanted to be friends.But he has never been very good at rejecting others, especially this kind of request that is not too much, even Zhang Wenqing is not good at making decisions for Ye Xiao in this matter.After hesitating for a while, thinking that he would leave with Xi Ye tomorrow, Ye Xiao still agreed to Chang Qingyi's request.
Anyway, he's going to stay in a place isolated from the world for a month or two, so it doesn't matter if he agrees or not, maybe when he comes back, Chang Qingyi has already forgotten him.A person like Chang Qingyi who can get in and out of Hualiu must be tall, handsome and rich, he doesn't believe how loyal and persistent this kind of person is in their feelings.
If it is said that he has been with Chang Qingyi for many years, then there is still this possibility, a stranger who has only met twice and said no more than ten sentences, Ye Xiao shook his head.He just affirmed that Chang Qingyi's affection for him was just a momentary affection, and it was nothing more than the natural possessiveness of a person of that background, and his feelings could not be described.
The three exchanged their contact information, and knowing that it was their first time to paint willows, Chang Qingyi proposed to be the guide of Ye Xiao and Zhang Wenqing.The two reluctantly agreed when the refusal was invalid.In fact, this is also normal, Ye Xiao needless to say, but just out of school, although Zhang Wenqing is more sophisticated than Ye Xiao, in fact, they are just fooling around, how could their skills be comparable to the wily and calculating Chang Qingyi.
Next to the tea room is the chess room, which is divided into several areas, including go, chess, chess and so on.Ye Xiao went in and wandered around, lacking interest, mainly because although he knew all of them, unfortunately, he only had a superficial understanding of each of them.As for Zhang Wenqing, he was even less interested in what he said belonged to the literary youth.
The chess room used to be a studio, and like the chess room, the studio is also divided into several areas according to the painting schools.Although Ye Xiao has no talent in painting, she has put in a lot of effort in appreciation, so she walked around the whole area.After this trip, he suddenly felt that the trip was worthwhile. There are only works of famous artists on display in the studio, and there are also some works of new painters with unique styles.
Seeing the satisfied expression on Ye Xiao's face, Chang Qingyi only found it funny.Contrary to Ye Xiao's guess, his background is actually not good. As an illegitimate child who struggled to survive when he was young, it is only hard work and luck that can achieve today's achievements.Of course, it was also because he was cruel enough to deal with his so-called relatives without any mercy.
On the contrary, in Chang Qingyi's eyes, Ye Xiao is the one who is born noble and has nothing to worry about.The reason why he made this judgment was because during the banquet, the bewilderment in Ye Xiao's eyes was obviously the first time he went to that kind of place, not only gay bars, he probably had never even been to bars.In this day and age, no one in their twenties has ever been to a bar, and there is probably no other explanation for it except strict tutoring.
And Ye Xiao's ability to step into Hualiu made Chang Qingyi more affirmed his guess.In high-end clubs with a membership system like Hualiu, those who can get a membership card, except for those who are really talented and make a fortune by themselves, like him, are the rich second generation with outstanding family background like Zhang Wenqing.And Ye Xiao, no matter how you look at it, doesn't look like a shrewd person, naturally there is only the second possibility.
When Ye Xiao was in the teahouse, her leisurely expression followed the rules of the teahouse, and she knew that she often went in and out of this kind of place.Teahouses are not the favorite places of ordinary nouveau riche rich second generations, even if there are a few arty people, they will not behave properly like Ye Xiao, and only a scholarly family or a wealthy family can cultivate this kind of demeanor.
When Ye Xiao entered the chess room, he casually acted like he didn't like chess and was not good at it, but he didn't behave awkwardly. Instead, he behaved very naturally, as if he should just be bad at chess.This is also completely different from ordinary people who face fields that they are not good at, or feel embarrassed, or slap their faces to look fat. It is a style of everyone.
And in the studio, Ye Xiao fully showed her connotation and self-cultivation, but it can be seen that Ye Xiao has a certain level of appreciation not only for paintings, but also for other works of art.Ye Xiao may not be able to draw, but that's not important, no child from that family needs to make a living by drawing, and appreciation is a more important skill.
Ye Xiao's appreciation level may not be very high, it doesn't matter, there are always masters in this field who are willing to serve him when he really needs it.The reason why you need to appreciate this skill is because people of this status are often exposed to these things. If you don't understand anything, it will be ridiculous.Of course, it is not necessary to know too much, it is enough to be higher than the level of ordinary people.
Ye Xiao didn't know Chang Qingyi's evaluation of him at all, if he knew, he would laugh out loud.God knows that he often goes to the tea room because of his experience in college. As for his performance in the chess room, it is also because he always believes that people are not good at things. Even the best people cannot be omnipotent. It's so normal.
As for the level of appreciation, in addition to his university major, it is also because of his interest.He actually has a wide range of interests, even if these interests can't last for a long time, but the problem is that he is actually a bit obsessive-compulsive, and even if he has lost interest in what he decides to do, he will force himself to continue until it is completed.
It is also for this reason that he has made certain achievements in many places that he is interested in. Although the level may not be very high, he is still better than ordinary people.As for tolerance, it's purely because he's been with Xi Ye for a long time, and Xi Ye is the kind of person he admires, so he has learned some of it consciously or unconsciously.
In addition, during this period of time, there are people with a temperament like Su Zheyu around him, no matter how casual he is, he doesn't know that he can't be too cowardly, otherwise it would be too embarrassing.Moreover, he already has the understanding that he is a cultivator. As a superior cultivator, does he need to be uneasy in front of any mortal?
Although Ye Xiao never looked down on mortals because of her identity as a cultivator, whether it was because of her simple mind or because she had become a cultivator for too short a time.But no matter what, Ye Xiao is already a cultivator. Ordinary people are actually not from the same world to him, so he has no reason to be nervous when facing anyone.
The author has something to say: I've been under a lot of pressure recently, and my father doesn't let me touch the computer... I can't afford all kinds of injuries!
☆、23 Who treats guests
After playing in Hualiu for a day, when the sky was getting dark, Chang Qingyi looked at his watch and naturally proposed the invitation, "Ye Xiao, Wen Qing, I wonder if I have the honor to invite you two to dinner?" Chang Qingyi I also know that although the two of them seemed to be having a good time just now, this journey is almost over, and the possibility of continuing at night is about zero.
Chang Qingyi's natural tone made it difficult for Ye Xiao and Zhang Wenqing to refuse. Thinking it was just a dinner, they didn't care about it anymore.For ordinary people, perhaps treating guests to dinner is often a sign of asking others, but for them, it is just a way to establish a preliminary relationship, and it doesn't matter whether it is human or not.
"Okay, where to eat?" Seeing that Zhang Wenqing also nodded, Ye Xiao asked cheerfully.Although he knew that the possibility of the two of them refusing was unlikely, Chang Qingyi's mood was much brighter when he actually heard Ye Xiao agree. He thought about it carefully, and chose a famous Chinese restaurant nearby, "How is the plumbing in Spring River?"
Chunjiang Shuinuan is a well-known chain hotel. The word "Chunjiang Shuinuan" is taken from a famous seven-character quatrain about diet by Su Shi, "Three or two branches of peach blossoms outside the bamboo, the Prophet of Spring River Plumbing Duck. It's the time when the puffer fish wants to come up."The reason why Chang Qingyi chose this hotel was because from Ye Xiao's understanding of traditional culture, he might prefer Chinese food.
As for Chunjiang Shuinuan, not only is the Chinese food good, but it is also very old-fashioned, which probably suits Ye Xiao's taste better.As for Zhang Wenqing's preferences, Chang Qingyi said, it's not that he doesn't think about it, but that he doesn't know.Although he thought innocently in his heart, Chang Qingyi was slightly taken aback by Zhang Wenqing's strange look.
Zhang Wenqing quickly looked away.In fact, the reason why he thinks so much about Chang Qingyi can't be because of that childish reason, but because "Chunjiang Plumbing" is an industry under the Ye Group.That is to say, Chang Qingyi not only wanted to treat Ye Xiao to dinner, but also planned to send money to Ye Xiao and his family's property by the way, so he really was taken advantage of by not explaining.
But Ye Xiao didn't know this. Although it was a bit strange to say, Ye Xiao actually didn't know as much about Ye's Group as Zhang Wenqing.He may know some of the rumors about the head office. As for the industries under the Ye family, because there are too many, he doesn't know much about it.So Ye Xiao agreed naturally, "It's up to you to decide, I'm not familiar with this side."
After leaving Hualiu, the three of them drove to "Chunjiang Plumbing", Ye Xiao still took Zhang Wenqing's car.After separating from Chang Qingyi, Zhang Wenqing became more natural. While driving the car, he asked casually, "Hey, I said Ye Xiao, do you really not know or are you pretending not to know?" It doesn't sound good to hear someone invite you to dinner at your own home, so Zhang Wenqing still decided to take this opportunity to remind his friends.
Ye Xiao was taken aback, "What's the matter?" "It's Chunjiang Plumbing, don't you really know that this is an industry under the Ye Group?" Zhang Wenqing's tone was very helpless, she didn't know about her family's industry, and she wanted someone else's Reminder... If Zhang Wenqing was not very aware of Ye Xiao's ambiguity in certain matters, he might really think he was faking it.
"Ah?! Spring River Plumbing is owned by the Ye Group? Why didn't you tell me earlier, what should I do now?" Ye Xiao was shocked and looked at Zhang Wenqing sadly.Although he doesn't like socializing, he still knows the reason why he didn't let others treat him to dinner at his home.It's just that the promise has already been agreed, so it's not good to go and tell Chang Qingyi to change places now.
In case Chang Qingyi asked him the reason for his sudden repentance, how would he answer? If the truth is told, Chang Qingyi would not think that he was playing tricks on him, after all, if someone told you that he didn't remember what his family's property was, it was a person I won't believe it.Maybe he would think he was showing off on purpose.But he was really wronged, even he had just found out that the Ye Group was Xi Ye.
Zhang Wenqing's head is full of black lines. If you don't remember your own property clearly, you still blame me for not reminding you. What's the point?However, it is impossible to really do nothing about my own problems, and it is not a big problem, "It's not a big problem, just count it as your treat later, do you want to call and inform Chunjiang Plumbing first?" principal?"
"That's a good idea, you're still smart." Ye Xiao immediately patted Zhang Wenqing on the shoulder with a bright face, took out her mobile phone and called Su Zheyu to ask about the person in charge of Chunjiang Plumbing.Knowing that the person in charge of Chunjiang Plumbing is also Mo Xi, Su Zheyu didn't bother him, and called Mo Xi directly to make arrangements, Ye Xiao just needs to go over.
It only took ten minutes to travel from Hualiu to Chunjiang Plumbing, and they arrived soon. After parking the car, Ye Xiao walked into Hualiu together with Zhang Wenqing and Chang Qingyi.While Ye Xiao was still thinking about what Mo Xi would arrange, a middle-aged man in a suit greeted him with a smile on his face, "Master Xiao, I am Lin Yin, the manager of Chunjiang Plumbing."
Ye Xiao shook hands with Lin Yin expressionlessly. It wasn't that he had a problem with Lin Yin, but he was never good at fake smiles, and he didn't know what was funny about strangers. "Hello, Manager Lin." After a pause, Ye Xiao asked curiously, "If I remember correctly, this is the first time we met, how did you recognize me?"
"Hehe, Mr. Mo Xi sent me a photo of Young Master Xiao, and asked me to tell you that he couldn't come over due to something, so he asked me to entertain him. I hope you don't take offense." Lin Yin didn't mind Ye Xiao's naive question either. , still answered with a smile on his face, and by the way, he also sued Mo Xi.Of course, he didn't know if Mo Xi really had something to do.
Ye Xiao waved his hand and said indifferently, "I wouldn't eat without Mo Xi. You take me to tell Deacon Mo Xi, I don't care." The smile on Lin Yin's face deepened, and he bowed deeply: " Thank you, Master Xiao, for your understanding. By the way, Master Xiao, these two are your friends, how do you call them?"
Zhang Wenqing shook hands with Lin Yin graciously, "Hello, Manager Lin, I'm Ye Xiao's good friend Zhang Wenqing." "Hello, Mr. Zhang, I heard Mr. Mo Xi mention you." Lin Yin shook hands enthusiastically She shook Zhang Wenqing's hand, then looked at Chang Qingyi on the other side, "Then who is this gentleman?"
"Hello, Manager Lin, I'm Chang Qingyi." Chang Qingyi was a little dumbfounded when he greeted Lin Yin. Lin Yin was not only the manager of the Haishi branch of "Chunjiang Plumbing", but also the manager of the entire "Chunjiang Plumbing". manager.There are not many people in Haishi who can be greeted by Lin Yin in person, and Ye Xiao was unexpectedly one of them. It seems that his evaluation of Ye Xiao's family background should be improved.
"Oh, it's Mr. Chang's. Nice to meet you." Lin Yin obviously had heard of Chang Qingyi, "Master Xiao, the box is ready, are you going there now?" Ye Xiao asked about Chang Qingyi's identity A little curious, but also knowing that now is not the time to ask this, so he nodded and signaled Lin Yin to lead the way.
What Lin Yin prepared for Ye Xiao was a bamboo-themed box, and the name was "Xiaoxiang Song", which was obviously taken from the myths and legends of Ehuang and Nvying.Walking into the private room, you seem to walk into a world surrounded by bamboo, with screens embroidered with bamboo, bamboo murals, bamboo patterns on the tablecloth, potted plants and various bamboo products in the private room.
After the three of them sat down, Lin Yin took the menu from the waiter and placed it in front of the three of them respectively, "Master Xiao, do you need someone to play for the fun?" Although he was very polite to Zhang Wenqing and Chang Qingyi, but from the beginning At the end of the day, Lin Yin directly showed Ye Xiao's main attitude, and asked Ye Xiao's opinion on the decision of the matter without mentioning the other two.
As for Ye Xiao, he was not aware of this issue at all. When Lin Yin asked him for his opinion, he just said his own opinion, and he didn't mean to consult Zhang Wenqing and Chang Qingyi. "No, I like to be quieter." For example, Ye Xiao answered casually while flipping through the menu.This was mainly because he felt that Zhang Wenqing and Zhang Wenqing did not need to be polite. As for Chang Qingyi, he did not want to be polite.
Ye Xiao doesn't have any rules in ordering food, and he doesn't talk about the staple food, dessert and soup, as long as he looks at it and thinks he likes it, he will order it.So he ordered the most dishes, which also made Chang Qingyi start to doubt his self-cultivation. Master, would you order like this?But judging from Lin Yin's attitude, Ye Xiao must have an extraordinary family background.
Chang Qingyi was disturbing others there, but Zhang Wenqing didn't think about it so much. Seeing Ye Xiao like this, he casually ordered some things without politeness.This made Chang Qingyi suddenly realize that it was just the bad taste of these rich kids.However, seeing that Ye Xiao and Zhang Wenqing had already ordered so many dishes, he was a little bit hesitant. It was not because he was worried about the bill, but because he was not used to waste.
He is used to living a frugal life, even now he is considered rich and powerful, and he has formed mature values, and he is not used to wasting food.This is completely different from Ye Xiao, who was spoiled almost lawlessly by Xi Ye. Although Ye Xiao doesn't pursue luxury, he doesn't save money either. He does what he wants to do.
Chang Qingyi closed the menu and said to Lin Yin: "Manager Lin, that's fine, I don't have anything to order." Ye Xiao looked at Chang Qingyi after hearing this, and finally realized that it seems that Chang Qingyi should be asked to order first, after all, it is not easy to treat guests to dinner. I feel a little sorry for not letting the guests order.But looking at Chang Qingyi's natural expression, he didn't force it, and nodded to Lin Yin, indicating that it would be fine.
Lin Yin put away the menu, leaned forward and said, "Since this is the case, I will leave first, and the dishes will be served soon. Please enjoy, Master Xiao and the two of you. Master Xiao, please call me anytime if you need anything." Ye Xiao nodded After that, Lin Yin quietly exited the box and gently closed the door.

☆, 24 drivers and treats
There were only three people left in the box, Ye Xiao looked at Chang Qingyi with some embarrassment and said, "Chang Qingyi, I'm so sorry, I didn't ask you to order." Although he didn't have more than necessary affection for Chang Qingyi, But this does not conflict with his basic politeness.Although Xi Ye almost didn't care about him except for cultivation, he felt that basic self-cultivation was still necessary.
"It's okay." Chang Qingyi replied politely, suddenly felt that something was wrong, why did he feel that what Ye Xiao said to him was like what the host said to the guests?Wait, Ye Xiao's surname is Ye, and "Chunjiang Plumbing" belongs to Ye's group, is it possible?Chang Qingyi looked at Ye Xiao incredulously, "Could it be, this is your family's property?"
Ye Xiao scratched her head in embarrassment, "That's right, so don't be polite to me tonight." My family's property needs to be reminded to know, and Ye Xiao still feels a little embarrassing when she thinks about it. .However, Chang Qingyi misunderstood what he meant, the corner of his mouth twitched, please, is there anyone like him in this world?
He said he wanted to treat guests, but he actually invited him to someone else's house.Although this was also because he didn't know Ye Xiao's details, it still made him feel disillusioned for a moment when he said it, just like the feeling when he went to strike up a conversation with Ye Xiao and Ye Xiao replied with his words.Fortunately, his nerves were trained by Ye Xiao today, and after a while his face became stiff, as if nothing had happened.
After the dinner, Chang Qingyi took his leave as originally planned and separated from them.Sitting in the car, Zhang Wenqing said to Ye Xiao: "You really know how to attract love. I don't think this guy has given up on you. You should be more careful." Zhang Wenqing was a little depressed. How long did it take to seduce someone like Chang Qingyi, and Ye Xiao appeared at the banquet.
"Be careful of what?" Ye Xiao looked at Zhang Wenqing puzzled, he was leaving Haishi the day after tomorrow, he thought that Zhang Wenqing would not have forgotten about this matter.Zhang Wenqing was speechless, as expected Ye Xiao was still so unguarded towards people.Ye Xiao knew the idea of cutting off contact with Chang Qingyi through cold treatment, but some people were not so easy to get rid of.
"From the very beginning, I thought Chang Qingyi's name was familiar. I just remembered that he is the chairman of Qingping Group. Unlike us, Qingping Group was snatched by him with his own ability, and I also heard that This guy has a gangster background, so I'm afraid he's not as easy to deal with as you imagined." In desperation, Zhang Wenqing had no choice but to express his guess.
"It turns out that's the case. No wonder I always think that guy is a bit strange." Ye Xiao suddenly realized that he had always looked at Chang Qingyi a little disliked, not only because the other party came over to strike up a conversation against his own wishes, but also because Chang Qingyi always felt Something chilled him all over, but he couldn't figure out what it was.
Hearing Zhang Wenqing talk about Chang Qingyi's background, Ye Xiao finally understood that it might be something like the legendary murderous or evil spirit.Thinking about it this way, Ye Xiao hated that guy even more.Although his identity has changed, Ye Xiao is still a good citizen who abides by the law and remains indifferent to the dark side of society.
Seeing that Ye Xiao finally understood, Zhang Wenqing was also relieved.As long as Ye Xiao stays on guard against Chang Qingyi, Chang Qingyi should not be able to do anything to him given Ye Xiao's background.There is also a reason why Zhang Wenqing is so nervous about this matter. Apart from Ye Xiao being his good friend, it is also because he caused this matter.
Although Chang Qingyi was not introduced to Ye Xiao by him, the two times he met Chang Qingyi was at his suggestion, especially the first time was in a place like the Banquet Bar, which made Chang Qingyi misunderstand Ye Xiao's sexual orientation.Although later
