Because only life can test a person's true side. Artificially made? Sorry, impossible!
The child's father has lived for such a long time and is the leader of the real power department. How could you not know this truth? Therefore, in the first scene, Wan Heng gave him a good feeling. Um! Then you can continue to fall in love with your daughter. The rest, as time goes by, is completely ok to observe in life.
Soon, the housekeeper and servants began to remove fruit snacks and other items from the table. Dishes began to arrive. The Tong family is not short of money, and the living standards are very, very good. Let’s put it this way, you can eat high-end dishes every time, as long as you don’t get tired of them.
But also because of this, it is impossible for them to eat monkey brains, bird's nests, shark fins and the like. The same dish is eaten every time, no matter how delicious it is in a high-end restaurant, it becomes ordinary. The original people, especially the ancients, ate a bite of meat all year round and felt that the meat tasted like gods. But if you want him to eat it every day, do you think he still likes it?
But today, my daughter's boyfriend comes to visit for the first time, and he must have some fun. Oysters from cold sea waters, tuna belly, French escargot, foie gras. Chinese-style yellow croaker in soup, steamed bear paws... a combination of Chinese and Western dishes, very sumptuous.
The ingredients of these things are very high-end, so they must be delicious, but the same reason is because they are not eaten often. Coupled with some expensive ingredients, it will give people a psychological bonus. So Fan Keqin, who understands this, never cares about what he eats. Just don't taste too bad. As for how high-end it is, he doesn't care at all. You said tuna belly is really more delicious than Dongpo meat? Not really. You may meet people who don't want to eat it, and they think tuna is disgusting. It's just expensive. It still depends on the taste of the person eating it to decide which dish is really delicious.
However, what the Tong family prepared was definitely not for the purpose of intimidating people. A few dishes, no matter how high-end, what’s the use even if one dish costs hundreds of millions of dollars? It’s just a dish, and who can be intimidated by a dish, except of course those who really have extremely poor mental qualities. The rest of the people, even if they expressed shock, were just polite, saying, wow, that's amazing! Just give the master some face! If you really think you are powerful, you are stupid.
The Tong family prepares these dishes out of their own courtesy, such as being a rich person. Inviting people to dinner is sometimes a show off. However, sometimes it is out of etiquette that we prepare more sumptuous dishes to entertain others. And now Wan Heng is her daughter's boyfriend, and this is his first visit, so this must be etiquette. When I show respect to you, I also respect myself.
When Fan Keqin eats, he still eats at his own pace. He eats very quickly, so the rhythm of putting things into his mouth is also very fast in comparison.
So Fan Keqin doesn’t show his performance? In fact, a person must show his timidity appropriately. Otherwise, you will always be tense and look perfect, but in this case, no one will really like you. It may even make people think you are fake and pretentious.
But being timid doesn't mean that you have to act without quality. Rather, it means showing your timidity in a way that makes people feel friendly. Choose the right time to show off, so you have to be able to show off your timidity.
So when is the right time to show your timidity? Very simple, while eating. Because eating is a human instinct. When you are eating, just stop squeaking and use chopsticks to pick and choose vegetables. Eat faster, eat more, eat more, who really cares? You behave so well in normal times, but when you reveal yourself like this while eating, at that moment, the feeling of intimacy and not pretending comes out. All of this is very beautiful when exposed.
But many people really don’t understand this truth. For example, when at a party, they always eat a little bit more slowly. Instead, it became less friendly. If this continues, it will have a bad effect. I thought I was so particular. In fact, this kind of emphasis is really nonsense, and it is also about the wrong time and opportunity.
Of course, what we are talking about here is to eat faster, eat more, and eat more. This is not the kind of thing where the table is filled with food. Nothing goes too far. (Read my books and become more knowledgeable, hehe!)
This is how Fan Keqin behaves now. Well, I ate two more oysters than my father. Then when Tong Fei wanted to eat, he squeezed some lemon juice for her. The tuna had a big belly, and while eating it, Tong Fei's chopsticks happened to come into contact with each other. Logically speaking, the man should collect the chopsticks and give them to the woman. Especially, the boy's father is still here.
But Fan Keqin did the opposite, with a smile on his face, and he loosened his hand faster, allowing Tong Fei to clamp it first, and then he clamped the outside of Tong Fei's chopsticks tightly and moved them downwards. Lu, grabbed the food.
No one minded this little reaction, although it seemed a bit childish, but man. Until the day of death, I will have a childlike innocence in my heart. And people who have innocence in their hearts can also be interpreted as good people. If you were a father, would you like your daughter to find a Dark One? Impossible. Another point, Fan Keqin's behavior at the dinner table was that even though he had scheming intentions, he didn't use it on his daughter or himself. Although the child father would not think so much or deeply for a while, a seed would definitely be planted subconsciously in his heart.
Therefore, Tong Fei pretended to be angry, but still smiled. Then Fan Keqin gave her another piece.
The boy's father was by his side, with an elder's mentality, he laughed when he saw it, and that was it. So, do you understand? Sometimes it doesn't mean that you will be successful if you always behave politely. If you show your timidity appropriately, the effect will be better.
The guests and hosts enjoyed the meal. After the meal, the boy's father offered him a cigarette, and Fan Keqin accepted. Just smoke a cigarette, that's all. This thing is completely different in the eyes of men and women. If a woman doesn't smoke, she will be very irritable. No, my wife just can't touch her, not at all. But even if a man doesn’t smoke, he won’t stop others from smoking. If he smokes, what can he do?
I was smoking with my boy's father when the housekeeper came over and said, "Sir, this is a call from Nanjing. It says it's Hou Wu from the Supervision Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense."
Upon hearing this name, the boy's father nodded and said, "In my study upstairs?"
"Yes, your dedicated line." The butler confirmed.
