Chapter 525: A smile brings joy (please vote!)
Lampe Zhi still did not accept the invitation after all.
Wang Heting was a little regretful, but he did not force it. When he stood up to leave, he shook hands with Jiang Chen politely.
"Mr. Jiang, see you next time."
Every place has its own customs and customs.
People from different regions have different attributes.
Today, Jiang Chen has gotten to know many powerful people in the country, and they all seem to have different personalities.
There are really all kinds of sentient beings.
“Such a young colonel is really shameful.”
Jiang Chen sighed, thinking of his friend Tie Jun who retired from the army for no reason.
"You're not bad either. You have nothing to be humble about."
Inside the Hummer.
Wang Heting turned his head, looked at the two people who were still sitting there chatting, and drove away.
“Thank you, Miss Lan, for the introduction.”
Jiang Chen said sincerely.
What is a network?
This is it.
Even if we don’t know the specific background of the young colonel who just exchanged contact information, there is no doubt that if we make friends with him, we will probably be able to travel across the land of Sichuan and Sichuan.
This kind of opportunity cannot be obtained by simple money.
In the final analysis.
China is different from the Western world where money is paramount.
Wealth in this land is not omnipotent.
"He is different from ordinary dudes. If you have the chance, try to be friends with him."
Of course there is no need for Lan Peizhi to remind him of this.
However, Jiang Chen has already felt the kindness of the other party.
Seventy points of favorability are indeed true.
"I understand."
Lampe stopped, took a final sip of coffee, and then stood up.
“Let’s go.”
“Where to go?”
Jiang Chen asked subconsciously.
“I’ll treat you to a meal.”
Lampezhi said softly.
At this time, this Blood Guanyin seemed to have lost all its splendor and was just an ordinary woman with outstanding appearance and temperament.
The guest does as he pleases.
Jiang Chen didn’t express any opinions and followed Lan Pei into the car. Before the sun set, they arrived at a tavern far away from the city center.
It is undoubtedly a bit shabby to entertain guests in a place like this, but Jiang Chen can even tolerate the simple meals in the countryside, so he is naturally not a picky person.
Although it was not a full house, the tavern was still 70% full and quite lively.
There is a singer playing the guitar.
“A car is coming after the rain, passing through the pale dusk and the old iron sheet heading south, the lover is no longer here...”
Ideal thirty.
The singer's deep and hoarse voice created an extremely strong atmosphere.
Now Jiang Chen has roughly figured out the age of the other party. Not surprisingly, he should be in his early thirties, definitely not forty, which fits this song quite well.
“Let’s order.”
Lampe looked at the folk singer.
“Do you want to drink?”
Jiang Chen asked while looking at the menu.
“Whatever.”
Jiang Chen glanced at her, hesitated, and ordered two jars of the signature wine here.
If you don’t drink in a pub, you will lose some flavor.
"I didn't expect Miss Lan to come to a place like this."
Jiang Chen closed the menu.
"Why can't I come to a place like this?"
Lampe asked, still looking at the singer playing the guitar.
Jiang Chen was speechless.
“Thousands of hectares of fertile land can’t eat more than three meals a day, and thousands of acres of vast mansions can sleep only seven feet of it at night.”
Lan Peizhi said lightly,
Jiang Chen smiled hoarsely. , "Didn't Miss Lan never read any books?"
Lan Peizhi looked at it.
Jiang Chen’s expression changed slightly.
"How do you know I haven't read the book?"
Jiang Chen hesitated, he really didn't know how to make up for it,
"Sorry, Miss Lan, I didn't mean that... "
Lan Peizhi didn't walk away, or even showed any signs of sullenness. "You're right, I haven't read much. To be precise, I haven't even finished junior high school."< br>
“In this day and age, academic qualifications don’t mean anything.”
Jiang Chen said quickly, half truth and half falsehood.
Indeed.
In this era where there are as many college students as dogs, there are many people with master’s and doctorate degrees delivering food.
People who graduate from prestigious universities are not necessarily better off than those who graduate from elementary schools.
Especially for people like Lan Peizhi.
It is ridiculous to judge by academic qualifications.
There is just one thing Jiang Chen found strange. Although achievement does not necessarily depend on academic qualifications, there is still a certain correlation between a person's temperament from the inside out and his education level.
It is easy to distinguish between a doctor and a person who graduated from elementary school standing in front of you.
It's like the difference between aristocrats and nouveau riche.
Kelan Peizhi.
How does one look like a person who has not completed nine years of compulsory education?
Jiang Chen thought of a name mentioned by the young colonel.
Old Taoist Priest.
"Miss Lan, why didn't you finish junior high school?"
Jiang Chen asked tentatively.
"Don't you already have an answer to this question?"
Lampezhi said softly.
Jiang Chen was silent.
If he guessed correctly, it should be family factors. From what he saw and heard at the Lan family during this period, he could probably get a glimpse of the other person's childhood experience.
Jiang Chen rationally did not respond.
"Just sing, narrow your eyes, and the bursting of tears is just the existence that has not arrived..."
Amidst the melodious music, Jiang Chen poured water into two cups .
Lampe's eyes were unfocused, like a sudden emptiness, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
“Drink water.”
Jiang Chen pushed the water glass over.
Lan Peizhi slowly held the water glass, "Do you have an ideal?"
Jiang Chen was slightly startled by the sudden question.
Ideal?
He didn't respond for a while.
"Do you have Miss Lan?"
Finally, Jiang Chen asked back.
Lampei Zhi was silent, "There used to be, but I no longer intend to realize it."
"Me too."
Lampei Zhi lowered his head and sipped his saliva.
She seems to be particularly talkative today.
"Can you tell me?"
"If you don't tell me, it's embarrassing."
The corners of Lan Peizhi's mouth turned up slightly, "You are not a thin-skinned person."
Jiang Chen smiled bitterly and shook his head silently.
Lan Peizhi did not force anyone to do anything difficult, but instead asked, "Why did you lie?"
Looking at the face that had shrunk significantly, Jiang Chen looked confused.
"Are you twenty-eight years old?"
Lampei Zhi's face was expressionless, showing no emotion or anger.
Jiang Chen was extremely embarrassed, "...In that situation, I can't tell the truth, otherwise you wouldn't be embarrassed?"
I don't know if it was intentional or not, but he deliberately omitted the words "Ms. Lan" "This title.
Lan Peizhi didn't seem to notice either.
“Why am I embarrassed?”
Jiang Chen’s lips moved, and finally he bit the bullet and took the risk.
"What would my uncle and aunt think if I said I just graduated? And you took me to see Mr. Shang, didn't you also want him to think..." Lampei's eyes flashed.
When Jiang Chen saw this, he immediately shut up and picked up the water glass.
Fortunately, this Blood Guanyin did not have an attack. He just muttered something indifferently: "There is a saying that it is rare to be confused and people are too smart, which is not a good thing."
Fortunately, this At this time the waiter started to serve the food.
"Don't worry, Miss Lan, I've always been strict with my mouth."
Jiang Chen expressed his stance.
Lan Peizhi picked up the chopsticks without comment.
Jiang Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief and started eating.
Lampei Zhi drinks very generously, but eating is very different. She chews slowly and carefully, and her taste is quite light, not like the Sichuan people who are not happy with spicy food.
Maybe this is why her skin is so good.
I dare not look at Guanyin from now on.
Jiang Chen is not Liang Shanbo, nor is he Shang Yongwen. He does not deliberately restrain his gaze. He looks at the other person from time to time, very openly.
Lan Peizhi poured himself a glass of wine. He must have noticed Jiang Chen's gaze, but he said nothing.
“Drink one.”
“Who will drive later?”
Lampei Zhi ignored it and picked up the wine glass.
Jiang Chen hesitated. After all, his masculinity defeated his law-abiding self-cultivation, and he also picked up the wine jar.
But as soon as he got into his stomach, Jiang Chen realized something was wrong.
This wine is really spicy. Just one sip makes my stomach feel like it is on fire and my whole body feels hot.
On the other hand, Lan Peizhi is just like a normal person.
He is indeed a hero among women, and his drinking capacity is unfathomable.
"I may only be able to drink two drinks."
Jiang Chen confessed in advance and did not pretend to be a man. It will be even more embarrassing to drink and lie down when the time comes.
"You ordered two altars."
Lampei's understatement made his meaning very clear.
Jiang Chen was speechless.
He thought it was just ordinary sake, how could he know it was so strong.
One jar per person, at least four cups per jar. After drinking like this, Lampezhi may be fine, but whether he can walk out standing upright is a question.
“He who is capable works harder, and you drink more.”
Jiang Chen did it without thinking and without any shame.
This must be the first time he met such a person. When Lan Peizhi heard this, he was slightly startled, silent for a moment, and said in a neutral tone: "Are you still considered a man?"
Jiang Chen smiled bitterly, "Drinking is really not my strong point."
Then what is your strong point?
But Lan Peizhi didn’t ask.
“Let’s talk after drinking. You lie down and I will be responsible.”
Jiang Chen’s bitter smile became even thicker.
elder sister.
Not so overbearing.
But he seemed unable to contend.
“That’s what you said. I don’t know anyone in Jinguan.”
“Didn’t you just meet a girl?”
“ Who? "
Jiang Chen asked.
“The girl who played Zhu Yingtai, isn’t she a Jinguan.”
Jiang Chen smiled, “She is indeed, but I’m so embarrassed.”
If Miss Shi were here, she would definitely take the opportunity to disparage him. But Lan Peizhi didn't, he just used actions instead of words and raised his glass to him.
Jiang Chen had no choice but to risk his life to accompany the gentleman, no, to accompany the heroine. He bit the bullet and raised his wine glass.
It is said that only men get women drunk, but now the situation seems to be the other way around.
Lan Peizhi seemed to deliberately want to make Jiang Chen look embarrassed. He kept raising glasses and barely gave him any time to breathe.
Jiang Chen, who was feeling hot all over his body, felt his head swell and realized that he was reaching his limit.
It’s not that he doesn’t understand the rules of the drinking table, but he does extraordinary things in extraordinary times. If he really gets down, he’s really not sure that the other party will take care of him.
When the time comes to live on the street and make news, it will be ugly.
So he decided to speculate and secretly poured the wine on the ground while Lampe was not paying attention.
Lan Peizhi didn’t seem to notice it either.
“Wow.”
Just when Jiang Chen was pouring wine again, someone happened to be passing by, and the drink accidentally spilled on the other person’s shoes.
Jiang Chen secretly thought something was wrong, knowing that his embarrassing behavior would definitely be noticed by Lan Peizhi, but at this time, he couldn't care about it.
"Sorry..."
Good upbringing prompted him to stand up and apologize immediately.
“You don’t have eyes, do you?!”
The man shouted unhappily, and looked down at his wet shoes. From his face, it was clear that he was not a good-tempered person. people.
“How much are your shoes, I will pay you compensation.”
Jiang Chen said quickly, it was not the arrogance of a rich man who condescends to spend money, but showed the apology that the wrong party should have. The attitude is very sincere.
Lampei Zhi acted as if nothing had happened, he was calm and composed, and he still drank calmly.
“You are rich, aren’t you?”
The man raised his head, frowning, and was about to continue venting, but inadvertently glanced at Lan Peizhi sitting next to him, and suddenly But my heart is moved.
He hesitated for a moment, and his fierce look softened a little.
"Actually, it's not that big of a deal, and it doesn't seem like you or I have any intentions."
The conversation suddenly changed, and then he looked at Lan Peizhi, "This beauty is you. Friends?”
Jiang Chen nodded.
"In this case, you ask her to come with me. I have a few brothers over there. You ask her to have a drink with us and forget about it."
Jiang Chen was secretly helpless. But I also understand that food and sex are the same.
When men meet beautiful women, most of them have this kind of virtue, not to mention the best ones like Blood Guanyin.
“Sorry, I’m afraid this won’t work.”
Jiang Chen’s attitude was still quite polite.
The man frowned and said threateningly, "What do you mean? You don't want to give face, right?"
"My friend won't agree."
Jiang Chen, who has been with him before, still treats him politely.
"How do you know she is unwilling?"
The man stopped talking to Jiang Chen, stretched out his hand to push Jiang Chen away, turned around and took a step forward, walking to the edge of Lan Pei.
"Beauty, it's my pleasure to meet you. My name is..."
Before he introduced himself, he heard a plain voice.
“Get out.”
The guy was stunned for a moment, and then his expression immediately fell.
“What did you say?”
“How much does this pair of shoes cost? I will pay you twice as much.”
Jiang Chen still wanted to save him.
“It’s not about fucking money!”
The guy’s eyes were stern, he ignored Jiang Chen and stared at Lan Peizhi, “You bitch, I just want to make friends with you. I’m a friend, so shameless, right..."
Jiang Chen didn’t speak any more.
There is no need to bear it any longer.
And he has seen that Lampezhi has put down his wine glass.
“Bang!”
Lifting up a bottle of beer from the next table, Jiang Chen immediately swung it towards the man’s head.
There was a huge explosion, accompanied by broken glass, and a stream of blood flowing down the man's forehead.
When he was young, Jiang Chen often followed Fu Zili and others around, and when it came to fighting, he was definitely not unfamiliar.
After smashing a wine bottle, while the other party was dazed, he kicked him again, knocking him to the ground, and then pulled Lan Peizhi up.
"What are you still doing? Run!"
He grabbed Lan Peizhi's wrist, turned around and ran out.
Lampezhi, who seemed to have not recovered, did not even struggle.
The two of them ran out of the tavern.
People on the road looked at them with strange faces.
Suddenly, Jiang Chen stopped and turned around: "Why did you stop? I didn't hear him say that he still had friends. If I catch up..."
"You were running in the wrong direction, the car was Stop over there.”
Jiang Chen was stunned.
Looking at each other.
He finally couldn't help it, bent down and burst into laughter. At the same time, he took the opportunity to quietly let go of his hand without leaving any trace.
Lan Peizhi didn't seem to realize that she was being taken advantage of. This was the first time she had experienced this. She stood on the street and looked at the young man who was bending over and laughing. The lights and shadows in his eyes were mixed, and the corners of his mouth could not stop raising. .
A smile brings forth flowers.
