At 1:30 noon, after Chen Xing and Mo Anshan settled the Zhang family members, they took them to the luncheon venue. Since the facilities in Orchid Town were relatively simple, the banquet was held in the garrison's barracks. As soon as a group of people walked to the door, they heard loud cursing coming from inside.
"What are these!"
"How dare you treat me with expired garbage!"
Then he saw Yangzhi bravely walking out, followed by several followers, including the lean old man.
"Master Yang, the mayor is too stingy. I'll take you to eat well, eat well..." Wu Hao followed behind with a flattering look on his face, constantly fawning over him, even speaking ill of the mayor in public.
When passing by Chen Xing, Yang Zhiyong suddenly stopped and looked at him a few times, but didn't say anything and turned around and left.
"Captain Chen, this Young Master Yang has been spoiled since he was a child and is not very good at life. Don't take it to heart." After Yang Zhiyong walked away, Zhang Meng came over and patted Chen Xing on the shoulder, comforting him.
"It's okay." Chen Xing nodded and said.
Then, the two of them entered the luncheonette together. The dinner will be a buffet style, with a large long table in the middle covered with a white tablecloth and filled with a variety of food, including steaks, chicken nuggets, bread, various vegetables and fruits, as well as drinks and drinks.
"Both captains, let's have a drink." Zhang Meng stretched out his hand, took three glasses of wine, gave one to Chen Xing and Mo Anshan each, and said politely.
"Where is it?" "Master Zhang is so polite." Both of them were a little flattered. Although the other party had been very easy-going and never put on airs since he got off the bus, he was a member of an aristocratic family after all.
"Zhang Meng has an important responsibility for the family this time. He came here to a place he is unfamiliar with, and he has to rely on the support of the two captains. I will drink this glass first as a token of respect." After saying that, Zhang Meng drank it all in one breath. With the wine in the glass, he picked up another glass and clinked glasses with the two of them.
"Dry!"
"Okay!" "Thank you, Mr. Zhang!" Chen Xing and Mo Anshan quickly raised their glasses to greet each other and downed the drink in one gulp.
While drinking, the two of them looked at each other out of the corner of their eyes, both with a little doubt. As a member of a noble family, Zhang Meng must have some purpose for taking such a low profile.
Chen Xing thought about it carefully and understood. According to what Ye Yang Bailiu said, Zhang Meng was a collateral descendant of the Zhang family. In other words, he rose to the top through strength. In other words, the Zhang family pushed him out because there was no more suitable direct descendant.
As a side branch, Zhang Meng had to achieve results, but he had few resources, so he could only rely on squeezing the local defense team. After thinking about this, Chen Xing's mood instantly hit rock bottom. If he had a choice, he would rather receive the tyrannical Yang Zhiyong than the humble Zhang Meng.
The other party adopts such a posture because they want to spend less and do more. But where is the free lunch in this world? Either Zhang San pays or Li Si bleeds. You get what you pay for. If someone makes a profit, someone must lose.
Although he thought so in his heart, Chen Xing did not show it on his face. After Mo Anshan said, "Thanks to Master Zhang, I will do my best." He said, "I will do my best."
It has to be said that these two people are both good people, and they always say "try their best". Zhang Meng looked tall and stunned, but in fact he was shrewd in his heart. How could he not understand the meaning of the two people's words? He immediately smiled and said, "Don't worry, you two, our Zhang family has always done things fairly and will not let you suffer." .”
"Don't dare, don't dare, as long as Master Zhang gives instructions, we will definitely get things done." Mo Anshan said quickly, and then looked at Chen Xing again.
"That's that." Chen Xing also nodded in agreement.
Next, the three of them chatted about some trivial things. Zhang Meng talked about a lot of interesting things about the aristocratic circle in Gray Corner City. Mo Anshan also talked about some trivial things in the town. Chen Xing talked about a few things. It's a joke, and it's fun.
After the luncheon, the two sent the half-drunk Zhang Meng back to the hotel they had rented, and then returned to their respective bases.
Before leaving, Mo Anshan pulled Zhang Peng and wanted to speak but couldn't. Finally he shook his head and sighed. Seeing his sad face, Chen Xing patted his shoulder and left without saying a word.
Faced with what is about to happen, they all feel tremendous pressure, but their status is too low, and speaking out will not solve the problem. It is better to keep it tacitly.
Half an hour later, Chen Xing returned to the water station. With a gloomy face, he knocked on Ye Yang Bailiu's door and said, "Come here, I have something to talk to you about."
"Yeah." Ye Yang Bailiu nodded and responded.
Then, the two of them came to Chen Xing's office one after another, closed the door, locked it, and sat down across the desk.
Seeing Chen Xing's serious look, and thinking of what happened before, Ye Yang Bailiu couldn't help laughing for a moment, and burst into laughter with a "chuff" sound.
"I have something to ask you, please be serious." Chen Xing said with a straight face.
"Oh." Ye Yang Bailiu responded, put away his smile, and sat upright, but the smile in his eyes was about to overflow.
"What is your relationship with that Zhang Meng?" Chen Xing held his hands together and placed them on the table, speaking in a very serious tone.
"Are you interrogating me?" Ye Yang Bailiu asked.
"You can understand it that way." Chen Xing said.
Ye Yang Bailiu leaned forward, with his chest next to the edge of the table, supporting his chin with one hand, and asked in a charming voice: "Then what if I don't do it?"
"I will have sex with you..." Chen Xing leaned forward and emphasized, "Whether you want it or not."
"Really?" Ye Yang Bailiu asked.
"I promise." Chen Xing's tone was more serious than ever.
"Okay then..." Ye Yang Bailiu put his hands on his hips and pretended to be helpless, "I'll say it."
"What's your relationship with Zhang Meng?" Chen Xing repeated.
"Someone I know." Ye Yang Bailiu replied.
"What else?" Chen Xing asked.
"He sent flowers twice, and a box of chocolates on Valentine's Day the year before last." Ye Yang Bailiu answered honestly.
"Did you accept it?" Chen Xing frowned and asked.
Ye Yang Bailiu glanced at him and said slowly, "Take it."
"What!" Chen Xing raised his voice unconsciously.
"For ladies from aristocratic families, it is impolite to refuse gifts from men." Ye Yang Bailiu explained.
"So you just accepted it?" Chen Xing's face became darker and darker.
Seeing that he was about to get angry, Ye Yangbai Liu smiled and said, "But I changed hands and gave it to the maid at home."
"That's pretty much it." Chen Xing leaned back and breathed a sigh of relief.
"I grew up in a girls' school. There were only women there. The teachers were female, the principal was female, the cooks were female, the gardeners were female, even the plumbers were female..." Ye Yang Bailiu sighed. , said quietly, "Before I met you, I had no idea that men could be so ugly when they take off their clothes."
"Uh..." Chen Xing was choked and speechless. After a while, he asked, "Isn't it true? Didn't your school teach you about physiological hygiene?"
"What is physiological hygiene?" Ye Yang Bailiu looked confused, as if he had never heard of it.
"This..." Seeing her look, Chen Xing remembered that "physiological hygiene" was something he did before time travel, so he explained, "It's the kind of thing between men and women..." Chen Xing winked at Ye Yang Bailiu, He hinted, "That night, you know...
Ye Yang Bailiu finally understood. He blushed and patted his hand and said, "We are a church school, how can we teach those filthy things?"
