What to eat tonight?
Jiang Yubai sat in the car, a touch of scarlet flickered, his hand stretched out of the window, gently shaking off the cigarette ash. Looking at the photo, he chuckled and threw it on the seat with the lighter.
Wait until the cigarette is finished before starting the car.
The car is not fast. It drives out of the West Third Ring Road, crosses half of the city, and stops at Andingmen Street on the North Second Ring Road. Then go through Fangjia Hutong and walk in to see a pub standing on the street. The sign hanging on the wall is made of special small wine bottles, and the two words Jiufeng are written crookedly on it. If you don't look carefully, you really can't see it.
Unlike the previous pubs of this era, this pub is not very gorgeous and modern, and even a bit primitive. The walls are inlaid with cobblestones and dotted with a few clusters of small flowers.
No one will greet you when you go in. There are only a few wooden tables and guests on the first floor who can be counted with one hand, plus a bartender and a resident singer.
Besides, there was not even a waiter, it was so lively.
Jiang Yubai walked through the tables and chairs, said something to the bartender, and was led to the special elevator to swipe the card to go to the second floor.
There was a private room at the end of the corridor on the second floor. After pushing the door open and entering, several people inside stood up.
"Mr. Jiang, I've been waiting for you." The person who spoke looked at him with a smile on his face.
Jiang Yubai nodded slightly to greet him. Everyone sat down. "Why not at Chang'an Club?" Jiang Yubai, who was late because he almost drove to Chang'an Street, looked unhappy.
"There are too many acquaintances there, and we chose this place because we knew that our Third Young Master didn't like it. It's quiet." He Zhang's words were comprehensive, just like him.
"Mr. He is the host today, so you don't have to consider me." He raised a glass of Louis XIII to He Zhang and said, "Long time no see."
"It's been at least half a year." He Zhang gestured to Jiang Yubai with a glass of brandy, "I have to thank Mr. San for taking the time to support us."
"You're welcome." Jiang Yubai finished his drink and then walked to the single sofa at the edge and sat down.
He Zhang just smiled slightly when he heard it, thinking that this man's temperament was still the same as always, childish. But if you look closely, the lenses can't hide the coldness in his eyes. This man seems to be elegant and well-mannered, but in fact he is just a smiling tiger, who will never suffer any loss without revenge. There are a total of eight people in the box, all of them are noble sons with deep backgrounds. Noble sons are divided into high and low, and family backgrounds are also divided into deep and shallow. The old man of the He family is a figure of that era like Mr. Jiang. They have some friendship, but it is just a friendship that is not good enough.
However, the He family has been flourishing in recent years. They have made great achievements in all industries and have been restrained by other families. He Er has just returned and has been parachuted into the position of general manager of Lingrong Group. The purpose is obvious.
"You are really rude." The speaker is Ye Bairong, the third child of the Ye family, who is sitting next to Yu Bai and has a deep friendship with the Jiang family.
"I am very polite to come here." It is true. Jiang Yubai rarely shows up at business events or public banquets except for attending parties with close friends.
The reason is three words: busy and tired.
"Have you finished writing the self-criticism?" Jiang Yubai said to him.
"Write it for me." After saying that, Ye Bairong really took out paper and pen from his pocket.
"You are sick, you really brought it." Jiang Yubai was thinking about how likely it was that the pen was broken by accidentally throwing it into the wine glass.
"You owe me, and this pen was given to me by Heng girl." Ye Bairong knew what this guy was thinking without thinking because they had known each other for twenty years.
Jiang Yubai admitted that his father had transferred him to inspect the villages in Guizhou last time. Although he was not in politics, in the family, various interests were intertwined and complicated. In order to avoid the adverse effects caused by unexpected events, these could be switched at any time. The performance report of that inspection was written by Ye Bairong. Well, return it.
Jiang Yubai took the paper and pen unconvinced. "Okay, I'll give it to you tomorrow."
"Write it carefully, don't fool around." Ye Bairong looked leisurely.
"I'm fooling around!"
"Simple, rewrite it!"
"Fuck you." Jiang Yubai put the paper and pen in his pocket angrily.
"What is Mr. Jiang busy with recently?" Liu Zhongzong's voice came. Yes, this is the person who loves to plot the most.
"Guarding my small company and spending my days leisurely." Jiang Yubai picked a grape and threw it into his mouth.
Pu Shun took over the conversation, "How can that be? Who in the financial circle doesn't know Dong He? Don't bully our Director Liu for not asking about the business world."
"Let our President Man go." Wang Xu, who had been pressing his phone without looking up since he came in, finally put down his small phone and spoke for his childhood friend.
"What did President Xu say?"
Seeing that the topic was centered around him, Jiang Yubai said, "What about President He? You're used to it after just coming back, right?"
He Zhang raised his eyes and said, "Not really used to it. I'll have to learn more from President Jiang in the future."
Several people made fun of each other, but it was nothing more than those words. They couldn't lose face.
Someone suggested playing a few rounds of cards to have some fun.
This box is extremely well equipped. So 4 people went to the card table, and the other 4 went to play mahjong.
He Zhang was the banker, Jiang Yubai was the top player, Liu Zhongzong was the bottom player, and Zhuang Yao was the opposite player.
Each person had two fixed codes, and several people were used to playing and had their own set of rules.
After a few rounds, He Zhang won the most, Liu Zhongzong didn't lose but still wanted to show off his 20-year mahjong skills, Zhuang Yao lost the most but was still in high spirits, only Jiang Yubai seemed to have calculated that he would lose and win a round and then leave the table after a few rounds.
"Tsk tsk tsk, your cards are not as good as Xuzi's." Jiang Yubai ran around another private card table and finally stopped next to Director Ye, who had the worst luck, and laughed at him.
"Are you looking for a fight?" Ye Bairong glanced at him coldly.
Jiang Yubai was generous and didn't bother with him. He just walked back to the table outside the card table, found a quiet place, and picked a bottle of Baicui.
He drank while writing a self-criticism to Ye Bairong, and the mobile phone next to him flashed white light.
That's right, our General Man found a template from his mobile phone, and while copying it, he sighed that the template was stupid and made nonsense.
When they were halfway there, Xiao Chen called to say he was downstairs. Jiang Yubai looked at the time, said hello to the others and left early.
"Boss, are you okay?"
"I didn't drink much, let's go."
Jiang Yubai sat in the back seat, squinting his eyes and thinking that He Er had just returned to China and couldn't wait to give him a warning, so he had to return the favor to make it count. "Go back to No. 8 Xiaoyun Road."
"Okay, Mr. Jiang asked you to go back when you are free recently." Xiao Chen started the car.
"Let's talk when you are free." Jiang Yubai guessed what Minister Jiang wanted to say to him, so he would wait until he finished first.
It took only 20 minutes to reach the destination, and Jiang Yubai got out of the car and prepared to go upstairs.
"Boss, this is on the passenger seat." Xiao Chen chased after him with a photo and a lighter in his hand.
Jiang Yubai took a few seconds to take it from him.
After going up, he casually put the photo and lighter in the entrance. He went to take a shower.
After coming out, he saw the WeChat message on his phone, it was Jiang Yu.
"Brother, are you there?"
"Say"
"Brother, my eldest brother is going to Africa to carry out a mission in a few weeks. Did you know that?"
"Why, you want to go to the African savannah?"
"I'll tell you."
"Got it, go to bed. Don't you have classes tomorrow?"
The other party replied with a koi OKjpg.
Jiang Heng went on a mission this time, thinking that it was an opportunity for training, and he would be promoted again if nothing unexpected happened when he came back.
Although Jiang Yubai felt something was wrong, he still followed the plan.
A few days later, he received a WeChat message from Liang Xihe. Clicking it, it was an entertainment news with the title: The end of the world is coming, next month, forward this, keep the world safe!
Jiang Yubai sneered, he believed this.
Jiang Jiang Jiang Jiang:?
Ten minutes later
Shi Xi Bu Xi: Forwarded by the Moments group, keep safe.
Jiang Jiang Jiang Jiang: Stunned
Shi Xi Bu Xi: Rolling eyesjpg.You don't believe this, don't you also believe the end of the world?
Jiang Jiang Jiang Jiang: I'm not stupid
Shi Xi Bu Xi: Friendly smilejpg.
Jiang Jiang Jiang Jiang: What should I do then
Shi Xi Bu Xi: Wait for death!
Jiang Yubai curled his lips playfully and didn't reply
