Su Yun turned her head and looked at Zhang Dachuan on the phone. She waited patiently for him to hang up the phone and then said curiously:
"Do you have dinner tonight?"
Zhang Dachuan nodded and told everything about what happened to treat Li Ruyue to dinner. Then he asked Su Yun:
"You have nothing to do tonight, do you want to go with me?"
Unexpectedly, Su Yun shook her head and said with a mysterious smile:
"No, I have a date with someone tonight too."
When Zhang Dachuan heard this, he quickly became vigilant:
"Who is it? Why don't you have a date during the day and at night?"
His behavior made Su Yun couldn't help laughing, and she felt sweet in her heart, so she stopped teasing him and said:
"It's Lin Xiaoying who came here from Mingyue County. We made an appointment to have dinner together."
Upon hearing that it was Lin Xiaoying, Zhang Dachuan breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved:
"What is she doing in Bailong City?"
Su Yun shook her head:
"I won't know this until I meet her, but her profession is quite special and many things are confidential. I rarely ask about her."
Zhang Dachuan didn't think much and said to Su Yun:
"Since she is with you, I feel relieved, otherwise I would really be worried that you would be in danger."
Su Yun covered her mouth, and without criticizing Zhang Dachuan, she waved her hand and got into her car:
"That's it. Remember to go home early tonight and don't drink too much."
After watching Su Yun leave, Zhang Dachuan drove to the so-called "Huangji Hall" and found out that it was a well-known private restaurant.
Although it is not as good as Jiudingxuan and Jinglong Hotel, it is better than the quiet environment, which is very suitable for small gatherings of three or five people.
But it's a pity that there are no seats in Huangji Hall.
Zhang Dachuan had no choice but to call Li Ruyue and suggested to the latter:
"There are no seats in the Huangji Hall. Why don't we go to Jinglong Hotel, where we can try Xiushan Pork."
After hearing this, Li Ruyue was speechless and said:
"Jinglong Hotel is now the most popular hotel in Bailong City. I'm afraid I won't be able to book a seat, otherwise I wouldn't choose to go to Huangji Hall."
"I heard that in the three stores of Cannon Hotel, the reserved dining seats have been queued for three days! Even if you dine at a shared table in the lobby, you have to queue for a long time."
Although Li Ruyue knew that Jiang Wantong worked under the banner of Jinglong Hotel, she did not actually know the true relationship between Zhang Dachuan and the owner of Jinglong Hotel. In order not to embarrass Zhang Dachuan, she did not propose to have a dinner there before.
Originally there was Jiudingxuan to choose from, but with the relationship between Zhang Dachuan and Liu Jiashi, there was no way they would be unhappy there.
Zhang Dachuan laughed after hearing this:
"Don't worry about it. I can't guarantee anything else, but there will always be a place for me in the Jinglong Hotel."
Li Ruyue also smiled: "In that case, let's see you at Jinglong Hotel."
Zhang Dachuan nodded and agreed: "Okay, see you there or not."
After hanging up the phone, he immediately dialed Liu Jinglong's mobile phone and waited for a while before the other party answered.
They are all his own people, Zhang Dachuan did not hesitate and said straight to the point:
"Brother Liu, are there no free private rooms in the store? Can you find a way to free up one? I'll treat someone to dinner tonight."
Liu Jinglong seemed to be drinking, and there was a lot of noise, but he still agreed without hesitation:
"Okay, you tell me when to use it, and I'll have someone arrange it for you right away."
…
At seven o'clock in the evening, at the Cannon Hotel branch, a Hongqi car slowly stopped on the roadside.
A man and a woman got out of the car, none other than Li Ruyue and Xu Fan.
Zhang Dachuan stood on the curb and looked at his two classmates with a smile.
Li Ruyue had obviously just gotten off work. She was still wearing the uniform of the TV station. She was wearing high heels and stockings, making her look tall and dashing.
Xu Fan was in a similar situation to her. He wore a suit, trousers and leather shoes, a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and a pen in his jacket pocket. His polite appearance was very different from the image in Zhang Dachuan's impression.
Zhang Dachuan punched Xu Fan in the chest, laughed and cursed:
"Look at what you're wearing, you look like a scumbag."
Not to be outdone, Xu Fan punched him in return:
"You idiot, you have the nerve to laugh at me. Are you so poor that you can't even pay the phone bill? Otherwise, you won't even make a single call to Bailong."
After speaking, the two looked at each other and laughed. Li Ruyue looked at the situation and could only shake her head to show that she didn't understand the man.
Afterwards, Zhang Dachuan took the two of them into the Jinglong Hotel and went straight to the reserved box on the second floor.
The waiters I met along the way would bow respectfully when they saw Zhang Dachuan, with a humble attitude and adoring eyes.
Li Ruyue saw it clearly. After entering the box, she immediately asked Zhang Dachuan:
"Zhang Dachuan, your relationship with the owner of Jinglong Hotel seems unusual. Do you have any shares in it?"
Zhang Dachuan nodded and explained simply:
"I am a shareholder of this place with the exclusive right to supply Xiushan pork, and I am now one of the owners here."
Li Ruyue immediately looked as if this was indeed the case, then looked at Xu Fan again and said with emotion:
"I thought I was doing pretty well at first, but now when I compare with you two, I realize that I am actually the worst."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Dachuan hurriedly raised his teacup and said:
"Come on, let's go out with tea instead of wine. Let's have dinner today and not talk about work, okay?"
Xu Fan immediately nodded, looked at Li Ruyue and said:
"Okay, let's go one!"
The three of them were all classmates in college, and there were many topics to talk about when they met each other. After drinking tea instead of wine, they quickly started chatting and reminiscing about the glorious past.
During this period, the waiter in the store brought cooked Xiushan pork and a box of Supreme Suchun wine, which are currently the most popular and signature items of Jinglong Hotel.
For a time, the aroma of meat and wine filled the box. The three of them were drinking and eating meat, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
Halfway through the meal, a burst of noise suddenly came from the corridor outside the box.
The three of them didn't pay attention at first, but soon there was a knock on the box door.
Zhang Dachuan frowned, stood up and opened the door. He saw three men in uniform standing outside the door and asked strangely:
"who are you?"
The leading man in uniform took out his ID in an arrogant manner:
"We are from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. We have received a report that this store has serious hygiene problems. Please cooperate with us."
Zhang Dachuan glanced at the other party's ID and knew that the person in front of him was named Wu Mingyan, and said seriously:
"How do you want us to cooperate?"
Wu Mingyan pointed to the door:
"Just put down your chopsticks and leave. We'll talk about it after checking."
At this time, the guests in the lobby downstairs and in the box next door were being mobilized by the staff of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to leave. The manager of the branch begged those staff and looked at Zhang Dachuan pleadingly.
Zhang Dachuan frowned, and he instinctively felt that this matter was not simple.
