At around 3 o'clock in the afternoon, in a coffee shop in Shanghai, a girl in a blue dress was holding a mobile phone in both hands and staring at the screen angrily.
The girl's appearance is very good, and she looks like a very quiet and good girl. However, the thick black-rimmed glasses on her face detract a lot from her overall appearance, making her look a bit ordinary.
She kept holding her phone until 3:30. Finally, the girl couldn't bear it anymore and took it directly to her mother.
After being connected, he said impatiently: "Mom, I said I won't come, but you have to let me come. Who are these people!"
The person on the other end of the phone was confused for a moment and said in confusion: "What's wrong, Guan Guan? Your Aunt Zhang said that this man is young and promising. He is already worth billions at the age of 30~"
"What the hell? That's not what I meant. It's because they didn't come at all. Your daughter has been waiting here stupidly for nearly an hour~" Guan Ju'er almost shouted out in anger at this sentence.
For a while, neither mother nor daughter spoke. Finally, Guan's mother said with some embarrassment:
"Daughter, this is my mother's fault. I'll call your Aunt Zhang and ask. You should go back first!"
Guan Ju'er looked at the hung up phone and murmured to himself: "What's the matter? I took the whole afternoon off today for nothing~"
After saying that, I paid the bill and left the cafe, going back to complain to my roommate and best friend Qiu Yingying.
After Guan's mother at work hung up the phone, she called her distant relative Sister Zhang directly.
After the call was connected, Guan's mother spoke in a somewhat unkind tone: "Sister Zhang, our old Guan and I didn't offend you, right? The person you introduced is so unreliable!"
Aunt Zhang was naturally confused when she heard this sudden accusation, but the meaning behind her words was that something must have gone wrong.
So he asked in a low voice on the phone: "My mother and I met while doing square dancing together. Is it not going well?"
"It's not going well, but I didn't see anyone at all. Guan Guan waited there alone for more than an hour~"
Fortunately, Guan Mu's position allows her to have a separate office, otherwise, with her loud voice, others would think something happened.
Aunt Zhang also looked embarrassed when she heard this: "Oh my brothers and sisters, I really didn't know this was the case."
"When I got along with his mother Zheng Fen, I felt that he was a very good person, otherwise I wouldn't be able to introduce him to my two children!"
"But how could her son be so untrustworthy? Let me call and ask. Later I will go to Wuxi to apologize to you and Lao Guan!"
When Guan's mother heard what everyone said, her attitude softened: "Sister Zhang, don't mind if I didn't have a good attitude just now."
"Why don't you apologize? The main reason is that you are too angry. No matter how rich you are, you can't play tricks on others. No matter how much money this kind of person has, our Guan family will not reach out to them!"
"Yes, yes, I understand, I understand~" Aunt Zhang also has a daughter, and she also understands this feeling.
After hanging up here, she was also very angry. It was originally a good thing, but this almost made her angry. So I called Zheng Fen directly.
Zheng Fen was watching TV series at home at this time. When she heard the phone ringing, she picked up the phone and looked at the caller ID with a smile on her face.
He pressed the answer button and put it to his ear, saying in a very happy tone: "Hello, Sister Zhang~"
Aunt Zhang just made a series of accusations:
"Okay, Xiao Zheng, I remember you took the initiative to ask me to introduce a partner to your son. How good that kid is."
"My parents have decent jobs and their own conditions are not bad. You have seen the photo of the child before. Weren't you quite satisfied at the time? How could your Lianjie do this?"
Now Zheng Fen also understood that something must have happened to her little bastard. She was so angry that her teeth were itching, and she felt that when her son came back, he had to let him experience the feeling of childhood again.
He suppressed his anger in his heart and asked cautiously: "Sister Zhang, what's going on? Did Lian Jie make that girl angry?"
Aunt Zhang actually understands that this matter has nothing to do with Zheng Fen, but she just can't suppress her anger. Now that she has finished venting, she has almost calmed down.
Then he explained with a look of helplessness: "Lian Jie didn't go at all. This girl waited stupidly for several hours!"
"Xiao Zheng, no matter how rich your family is, you can't play tricks like this. These words are not what I said. They are the exact words of the woman's parents!"
"Oh, this damn kid, how could he do this? He promised me good things this morning!" Zheng Fen almost exploded when she heard this.
"Anyway, I've really tried my best on this matter, so let's leave it like this for now!" Aunt Zhang hung up the phone directly after saying that.
Zheng Fen's hands were shaking with anger, so she called her son directly, but when no one answered, she became even more angry.
While calling back, he said to himself angrily: "You little bastard, how dare you not answer my call? If you can, don't go home~"
In the end, the fight lasted for more than an hour. Zheng Fen was really out of ideas, so she checked her address book and called her son's secretary.
…
In fact, Qu Lianjie didn't mean not to answer the phone, but he was sleeping under a blanket in the hotel at this time. He didn't hear the ringtone of his phone because it was muted.
After dinner, he did not go to hang out together, but lied that he drank too much. In fact, it was because Qu Lianjie vaguely felt that, except for a few people, such as Wang Xu and Chen Weinan.
The rest of the people have nothing in common with them to talk about. These people only talk about luxury cars and picking up girls. I can't talk about business with them. I can't talk to them.
Qu Lianjie slept in the hotel until after 8 o'clock, then lazily got up, picked up the mineral water next to the bed, opened it and took a sip, and then picked up the phone.
But when Qu Lianjie saw the more than 20 missed calls on his phone and the countless messages on WeChat, he instantly became energetic.
He sat up from the bed and finally remembered what he had forgotten.
He murmured to himself with a look of horror: "It's over now, I've been discovered, mom can't kill me~"
When Qu Lianjie thought of this, he immediately drank up the entire bottle of mineral water in his hand, swallowed, and called back to his mother. It was a blessing, not a curse. It was a curse that could not be avoided and would have to be faced sooner or later.
After the call was connected, I cautiously called out: "Mom~"
"I'm not your mother, let's sever the relationship between mother and child!" Zheng Fen replied coldly.
"Mom, it's that man's birthday today, and you know that we have a good relationship. It wouldn't be good if I didn't go~" Qu Lianjie knew that his mother would be angry, so he tried to explain.
When Zheng Fen heard what her son said, her anger lit up again, and she reprimanded loudly:
"Then don't you know how to make a phone call and let the girl wait there stupidly all afternoon? How do you want your mother and me to see your Aunt Zhang?"
"Didn't I forget~" Qu Lianjie whispered knowing he was in the wrong.
"You forgot, why don't you forget when you drink?" Zheng Fen was even more angry when she heard that he dared to bite his tongue.
"Aunt Zhang introduced her relatives to you with good intentions. How could you do this? Isn't this making people enemies?"
"You're almost pissing me off. And why didn't you answer the phone? If I hadn't finally been desperate and contacted your secretary and got the accurate information, I would have thought that my grown-up son had been kidnapped!"
