Chapter 107 Guess who I am!
The person who called him was Allen. The two had a good relationship. After returning to China, they often kept in touch.
Allen's family runs a furniture factory and decoration engineering company, and they have cooperative relationships with several large real estate developers in the country.
Standing behind is a tall, taciturn boy named Dashan.
Like Fu Rourou, he used to study at Huaguang Main School.
Among the two girls, the baby-faced girl named Xiaoyu and Dashan are lovers, and the other girl with glasses and single eyelids is Allen's current girlfriend named Li Yan.
Interestingly, both couples broke up before returning to China.
"Why are you four here?"
"I'm going to Xicun for a trip. This is a good time. Of course I want to go out and have fun, hehe."
"What, Chen Xi, you haven't been in love yet?"
"Yeah, I didn't fall in love in high school, and I was alone in college."
Among the four people, except Dashan who didn't like to talk, the other three were very talkative and immediately started teasing him.
From what they said, they didn’t know that they and Shazhi were in a relationship. It seemed that Dongdong and the others were not spreading rumors outside.
"Where are you going? Let me see."
"Oh, you are on a plane with us. Are you going to Xi Village to meet your sweetheart?"
Allen grabbed his boarding pass and looked at the flight number on it carefully.
“What a little lover, my dad is holding a meeting in Xicun and insists on asking me to go.”
Chen Xi curled his lips, looked unhappy, and hurried away When he arrived at the airport, he was furious.
“Oh, my dad is also holding a meeting in Xicun.”
Dashan, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke.
"Oh? Then you won't go?"
"Maybe go back, it depends on your mood."
Dashan's family is also in good condition. He is considered to be the top three Chinese in the school. He went back in his previous life. Settled in a beautiful country.
"Okay, let's go, let's get some McDonald's first~"
Ellen saw that it was getting late, so he suggested going to get something to eat. The airplane food in Tu'ao is terrible, and some people would rather go hungry.
McDonald's and KFC in Tu'ao have very few types of products and are not as rich as those in China. KFC in China even provides rice and fried dough sticks. A few people ordered five MacChickenmeal, and they were free to deal with it.
"What are you looking at us for? Did you not expect that we would get along so quickly?"
While eating, Chen Xi looked at the four of them from time to time. He used to be very I wonder how they got together, and they became a couple out of nowhere.
"Ha, you left early last time at the cashier. I drank too much, and Li Yan took care of me all night."
"No one asked you, are you there?" What nonsense?”
Li Yan pinched Allen, who screamed in pain.
Chen Xi knew that Allen was a henpecked guy. Nine out of ten friends around him were henpecked, but they were very tough-mouthed, claiming: "This is love and respect for your wife." Wife."
"Okay, don't talk about us, Chen Xi, you see, Dashan and Xiaoyu have been together for a long time, but they have never made it public. They are really two boring guys."
Alan shifted the topic to the mountain next to him.
Da Shan has always been a dull guy, so naturally he won’t talk nonsense to him, and just laughs a few times.
"Chen Xi, last time Li Yuqing drank too much and kept calling your name. We looked for you for a long time but didn't see you. In the end, she was sent away. You really missed a great opportunity."
< br>At this time, Xiaoyu suddenly remembered what happened last time at KTV.
"What is there to miss? I have found a treasure."
Chen Xi is a little disdainful of Li Yuqing, but the yarn is more fragrant and good-looking, so he also treats him Well, she is still a little rich woman, she really gets what she wants.
Only a fool would choose Li Yuqing!
"Did you find a treasure? I think you drank too much and fell into the toilet that day."
"Li Yuqing is also at Didi University. You two can develop a bit."
< br>Ellen and Xiaoyu each said one sentence at a time.
"Come on, Li Yuqing is not good enough and is not worthy of Chen Xi."
Li Yan picked up a French fries and stuffed it into her mouth.
There are usually a lot of frictions between girls. Chen Xi has heard before that many girls don't like Li Yuqing, thinking that she has a bad character and likes to take advantage of her.
Because Li Yuqing's family background is not very good, and girls like to compare with each other, many people look down on her.
In addition, Li Yuqing also likes to brag in private, which leads to many conflicts between her and other girls.
Li Yan's words reminded Chen Xi of what Xiao Ming had said to him before, thinking that Li Yuqing was not worthy of him.
However, at that time, he was deeply involved in gambling and did not pay attention to Xiao Ming's reminder.
Later, he got hot-headed and fell into Li Yuqing's gentle land, unable to extricate himself.
"I was shopping in the City that day and saw Li Yuqing and a boy together. The two of them were talking and laughing and bought a lot of things..."
Li Yan put her hands on her hips and looked more and more He became more enthusiastic and began to describe in detail what happened that day.
"Why do I think Li Yuqing seems to be interested in Chen Xi, and why is she so close to other boys."
Xiao Yu also spoke at this time.
These two women sang in harmony, and Chen Xi was not a fool. Naturally, he could see that they had conflicts with Li Yuqing, so they sang a double act here.
However, he was not interested in what they said, because there was no way he and Li Yuqing could be together.
"Last time Li Yuqing said how much his father earned in a year..."
"That's right, why do I feel that it sounds a little unreal!"
Xiao Yu and Li Yan were still talking and had already begun to talk about Li Yuqing's family background.
Li Yuqing's father is a young lawyer who opened a law firm in partnership with others. The business is bleak and he can't make much money in a year. Chen Xi naturally understands this.
Once her father came to Tuao and kept talking about how much he earned. The figure was not much and was exaggerated.
But even if that number is exaggerated, in Chen Xi's opinion, it is still pitifully small, not even comparable to his family's income in a few days. It is true that like father, like daughter.
Generally speaking, the more people lack something, the more they show off.
That’s why Li Yuqing has so many problems.
"Okay, it's getting late, get ready to go in and board the plane."
Chen Xi glanced at the time and said.
The domestic aircraft in Tu'ao are basically owned by Jet (JetStar). The aircraft are small and broken, and they often offer low-price tickets.
Every time he took the plane, the plane shook violently, and Chen Xi felt like he was about to be reborn again. "Hey, have you bought any football for the World Cup?"
Allen took the initiative to change seats with others so that he could chat with Chen Xi. Once the plane stabilized, he started his chattering mode.
“Well, I bought some.”
“I lost several thousand this time, and I was so angry. Fortunately, Li Yan didn’t know, otherwise he would have killed me. "
"Oh? Where did you buy it? A team?”
“I bought everything from 1 to 0, 2 to 1, and 2 to 0. I calculated that I could win money if I hit only one of them, and it ended up being 1 to 1. 1. It’s too fake.”
Chen Xi was speechless when he heard Allen's method of buying football. The odds of buying scores were not low, but the chance of guessing was not high.
He also bought so many scores at once, and even if he won one of them, he wouldn't make much money.
If you invest several thousand yuan at a time, you will probably earn less than one thousand yuan. Such a rate of return is really too low.
“Did you win the draw you bought?”
“Well, I didn’t make much, just for fun.”
Chen Xi nodded.
In his previous life, he and Allen often went to casinos, but Allen's self-control was much stronger than his, and he stopped after losing one or two thousand yuan at a time.
In contrast, once Chen Xi got on the gambling table, he spent a lot of money. Even if someone tried to persuade him to leave, he would not listen.
“I went to Crown to play a few games last time and won a thousand dollars. I heard that everyone who goes there for the first time can win money.”
“Well, it does happen. This statement may be because newbies don’t understand the rules and don’t have much psychological pressure, so they can usually win money.”
Chen Xi nodded and explained.
“Hey, I went to the Casino and StarCity in Xicun this time, but I heard it is very small, not as big as the venue at Crown, and there are very few tables.”
Allen seemed to Because I won money last time, I am full of confidence in my luck.
Usually, people who have just started gambling tend to have this mentality.
“Well, yes.”
In his previous life, Chen Xi once traveled to Cassino all over Tuao.
Although the StarCity in Xicun is not as big as Crown, a new one was later built.
Mocun has always maintained its dominance.
“Would you like to accompany me to have fun?”
“No, I still have to go to the exhibition.”
Allen extended an invitation to Chen Xi, but the latter shook his head and refused directly.
The flight didn’t take long and we were quickly above the city.
Viewed from the plane, the night view of the city shines like a bright gem.
The traffic on the highway shuttles like a trickle, and the outlines of high-rise buildings appear in the night.
Xicun at night exudes a unique charm that makes people intoxicated.
In terms of prosperity, Xi Village is better. It is said that Xi Village is better for entertainment and Mo Village is better for education and retirement. This is not unreasonable.
"Okay, I'll take a taxi and leave."
After getting off the plane, Chen Xi waved his hand to say goodbye to them.
"Which hotel are you staying in?"
Alan seemed to have not seen him for a long time and wanted to continue chatting with him.
"Park Hyatt Sydney!" Chen Xi said after looking at the address on his phone.
"Oh, I'm staying in a hotel near you. If you want to go to Casino, just call me."
"Easy!"
Chen Xi He got into a taxi, opened his backpack, took out the mineral water, took a sip, took out his cell phone, and glanced at the text messages on it.
A few messages were from his father, asking if he had arrived in Xicun; others were from his mother, telling him that his father would be in Tuao in the next few days.
Since the divorce, Chen Xi's mother has been busy managing several companies, mainly engaged in the jewelry business.
His father continues to be in charge of businesses in the fields of machine tools and finance.
“I don’t know which brand is at the exhibition this time.”
Chen Xijia’s machine tool business covers multiple brands, and its domestic market share accounts for most of the country.
However, due to the large number of brands, outsiders often mistakenly believe that these brands are run by different owners.
Although Chen Xi is not interested in this aspect, these machines have lost any appeal to him since he was a child.
When he decided to return to China to take over the business, he lost the opportunity.
"Didi~didi~"
"I just got in the car."
"Someone will pick you up at the door."
"Yeah."
After a brief exchange with his father, Chen Xi hung up the phone.
The lobby of Park Hyatt Xicun is like a dazzling art palace, elegant and noble.
As soon as you enter the hall, the marble floor is as smooth as a mirror, reflecting the gorgeous chandelier.
The two sides are filled with artworks from all over the world, adding a strong artistic atmosphere to the entire space.
Carefully selected lights shine on each piece of art, giving them a captivating glow.
I heard that the price for one night here is quite high, but for him, he didn’t pay for it himself, so he didn’t care at all.
“Guess who I am!”
Standing in the middle of the hall, Chen Xi did not see anyone coming to pick him up.
Just as he was about to call his father to ask, a pair of small white hands suddenly covered his eyes.
The opponent was obviously not very tall, so he made this move by trying hard to stand on tiptoes.
Huh?
Who is it?
I haven’t heard this sound before.
