Jiang Pengfei raised his eyebrows and looked up to see Xie Jiayin chatting with his sister-in-law Su Yan. Feeling that there was an outsider present, he leaned towards Zhu Shijie and whispered in Zhu Shijie's ear:
"Brother, have you made one billion?"
Zhu Shijie nodded, put his arm around his brother-in-law's shoulders and explained softly:
"A few years ago, I followed an investment in an Internet company. Last year, it was successfully listed on the Nasdaq. Now the shares I hold are worth more than one billion!"
At this point Zhu Shijie sighed:
"But the money hasn't been in my pocket yet, and the ban hasn't been lifted yet. It's just a number. It's possible that in a few days there won't be so much when the stock price drops~"
"Brother, how much did you invest in the first place?" Jiang Pengfei asked subconsciously.
Zhu Shijie pretended to be calm and said:
"Less than 100 million~"
Jiang Pengfei saw his elder brother's pretentious look and decided to satisfy his vanity. He directly extended a thumbs up and said in a very exaggerated way:
"You are awesome, you are so awesome!"
Seeing his brother-in-law like this, Zhu Shijie felt that the acting was too fake and glared at him angrily:
"Okay, don't pretend to be me here. Don't think that I don't know. Your investment company has made a lot of money. It has also invested in many unicorns in the past few years. What I make is just a drop in the bucket for you! "
"I listened to your suggestion in the first place. I don't believe you didn't vote at all!"
"Hey, it's all a small profit, that is, if others eat meat, I will drink some soup~" Jiang Pengfei scratched his head and said very modestly.
At this time, Su Yan, the organizer of the dinner, saw that the time was a little late, and that her best friend was in a hurry because she had just drank, and she seemed a little uncomfortable.
Then he stood up and suggested:
"Let's go here today. Come to my house when you have time, and I will prepare delicious food for you~"
Jiang Pengfei naturally had no objection and agreed with a smile:
"Okay sister-in-law, I really like the sweet and sour pork you made. Next time you come home, you have to show off your skills~"
"Of course it's no problem~" Su Yan responded with a smile.
Here Xie Jiayin stood up with strength, looked at her concerned best friend and said:
"Su Yan, I'm fine. I see that everyone is not enjoying themselves, why are you leaving in such a hurry!"
"Mom, please sit down quickly~" Seeing this, Xie Hongzu quickly stood up and supported his mother, saying distressedly.
Afterwards, Jiang Pengfei saw Xie Jiayin in this state, so he could only offer a few words of advice, and everyone dispersed and left one after another.
However, Xie Hongzu supported his mother who was a little drunk. When he walked out, he couldn't help but glare at Jiang Pengfei. He felt that his mother wouldn't have drunk so much if it hadn't been for this man.
Although Jiang Pengfei noticed it, he didn't say anything, just thinking it was to give face to his sister-in-law.
On the other hand, Zhu Shijie and Su Yan who were walking behind looked at each other and shook their heads together, thinking:
"This Xie Hongzu is still too young. He won't be able to become a great person without more experience!"
This is actually due to the single-parent family. Xie Jiayin, who was divorced at the time, felt very guilty, so she doted on her son very much, and because she was always busy with work and rarely accompanied her, she responded to her son's needs.
As a result, Xie Hongzu was raised by a nanny, and even his mother's driver helped attend parent-teacher meetings. This kind of living environment created Xie Hongzu's weak character and lack of responsibility.
When Xie Jiayin achieved certain results in business and turned around to correct her son, it was too late. Her son Xie Hongzu had become a "mama's boy" with almost nothing but filial piety.
Jiang Pengfei took his wife and walked over to say hello to Xie Jiayin, and then walked to his car to get in and go home.
Here, Zhu Shijie saw his brother-in-law about to get in the car, so he quickly walked forward and stopped him:
"We haven't had much fun today, why don't we find a place to have a drink and chat again?"
Jiang Pengfei had already stepped into the car. Hearing what his uncle said, he was a little moved. He looked up at his wife in the car expectantly, and said awkwardly:
"Xiao Xi, look..."
Zhu Xi glanced at her sister-in-law first, and saw that her sister-in-law had no objection, then she said angrily to her husband:
"Go ahead, but drink less. My brother has a bad stomach!"
When Jiang Pengfei heard this, he quickly took back his foot and said flatteringly:
"Don't worry, the main thing is just chatting, drinking and other things are secondary!"
Zhu Xi looked at the nephews and nieces behind his eldest brother and sister-in-law and said with a smile:
"Yun Qi, Yun Jun, you guys have time to come and play at my aunt's house~"
"I know~" x2, Zhu Yunqi and her brother said together.
After that, Zhu Xi left first in a car, and Jiang Pengfei accompanied his uncle and his family to send Xie's mother and son away.
After they were sent away, Su Yan pulled her husband into the car and planned to give a few words:
"You drink less later and don't give Pengfei wine, otherwise Xiaoxi won't be able to spare you~"
Zhu Shijie quickly assured: "Don't worry, I..."
The two siblings also knew that their parents had something to say privately, so instead of chatting with their uncle over here, Zhu Yunqi asked:
"How is Sister Nansun doing lately? I have been studying abroad in the past few years. I have been very busy with work since returning to China in the past two years, and I have never had time to play with her!"
The relationship between Zhu Yunqi and Jiang Nansun is indeed somewhat estranged. They couldn't help it when they were abroad. After returning to China, they didn't have much contact. One reason was that they were really busy with work.
The second reason is that Zhu Yunqi's values make her always a little uncomfortable when getting along with Jiang Nansun, so the friendship between the two means that they can only speak a few words when they meet, and they usually don't have much contact.
And Jiang Pengfei also knew that family scandals should not be made public, so he did not mention those bad things:
"Nan Sun is very good. He just graduated from graduate school and plans to take the Ph.D. exam, and he also has a boyfriend!"
Zhu Yunjun on the side turned his head to look at his sister after hearing this, and then answered with a hint:
"Oh, Sister Nansun already has a boyfriend. This is great. It's not like someone who is 24 and still doesn't have a boyfriend. My parents are almost worried to death~"
Zhu Yunqi felt that she had suffered a 10,000-point critical blow in her heart. She could no longer care about the lady, and directly reached out and pinched her brother's ears, shouting loudly:
"Zhu Yunjun, who are you talking about? I think you need to clean up again, right? I will sew your mouth shut when I get home. Are you wrong?"
Zhu Yunjun covered his ears and begged for mercy:
"Sister, please be gentle, your ears are about to fall off. I was wrong, okay?"
"Hmph, you're not sincere at all, let's say it again!" Zhu Yunqi put a little more force on her hand.
At this time, the conversation between Su Yan and Zhu Shijie over there also ended. Seeing the two siblings fighting here, they shouted angrily:
"Okay, how old are you, and you are still fighting like you were kids? Get in the car now!"
"Bye, uncle, let's go first~" The two siblings stopped playing when they heard their mother's words. They were just playing around and have been used to it since they were young.
After his wife and children got in the car and left, Zhu Shijie turned to look at his brother-in-law and asked:
"We're all gone this time, let's have something to eat, big brother's treat!"
After hearing this, Jiang Pengfei joked:
"Brother, it's not easy for you to invite me to dinner. Why don't you call Shijun out? We haven't seen each other for a long time. Let's get together!"
"That's a good suggestion. We haven't seen each other for a long time. The last time we met was for Aunt Liang Yi's birthday last month. I'll call him right now!"
After Zhu Shijie finished speaking, he took out his cell phone and called his brother Zhu Shijun.
