The ribbon-cutting ceremony on the stage began the moment Fu Jingchuan cut the ribbon, and the scene was filled with thunderous applause and congratulations.
After Ling Zhendong and Ling Yigu gave brief speeches of thanks, the ceremony finally came to an end.
Fu Jingchuan followed Ling Zhendong and others back to the main table, and everyone started the banquet amidst congratulations.
Ling Zhendong and Ling Yigu's family stood up from each table to express their thanks and greetings before returning to the main table, where they could finally sit down and have a meal in peace.
As the meal progressed, the strong atmosphere of business compliments gradually turned into a battlefield for gossip.
Ling Zhendong was in a good mood today and drank a few more glasses of liquor.
He had high blood pressure and coronary atherosclerosis. Zhang Huilin was worried about his health and quickly persuaded him to drink less, but she did not stop.
Zhang Huilin was so angry that she grabbed his wine glass.
Ling Zhendong smiled and let her snatch the wine glass away. He was not angry, he just looked at the crowd and smiled:
"You see, that's the only bad thing about getting married. You don't have the freedom to drink at all. It's better for you young people to be single and have no one to care about, so you are free."
After saying that, he changed the topic: "But, it is a tradition left by our ancestors that men should marry when they are young and women should marry when they are young. You still have to get married when you find the right one."
As he said that, he started asking one by one: "Xiao Tang, are you married?"
Tang Shaoyu, who was called, quickly smiled back: "No, I'm busy with work, I don't have time."
Ling Zhendong smiled and pointed at him: "Why are you like Xiao Fu, using busy work as an excuse?"
Tang Shaoyu smiled and replied: "I just returned to China to start a business. It is the busiest time and there is nothing I can do. But if Mr. Ling has a suitable candidate, you might as well introduce him to me."
"That's easy to say."
Ling Zhendong agreed with a smile, but did not forget to turn around and said to Zhang Huilin: "Do your old sisters have any single daughters at home? Can you please help me get some help? There are all dragons and phoenixes at this table today, so don't let your wealth slip away." It’s a foreigner’s field.”
"I'll ask later." Zhang Huilin also said with a smile.
Ling Zhendong also looked at Tang Shaoyu with a smile: "Don't worry, their mistress will definitely introduce you to a satisfactory one."
After saying that, he looked at Yan Yao: "What about you? Do you have anyone to talk to? You are no longer a young man."
Fu Jingchuan paused slightly while drinking tea, and then continued drinking tea as if nothing had happened, without looking at the crowd.
Tang Shaoyu looked at Yan Yao thoughtfully.
Yan Yao was looking at Ling Zhendong: "No, don't worry."
Fu Jingchuan glanced at Shiyang.
Shiyang suddenly felt embarrassed that he had been exposed. He didn't dare to look at Fu Jingchuan and continued to drink soup as if he hadn't heard.
Ling Zhendong's attention was all on Yan Yao. He frowned when he heard that he didn't have a girlfriend yet:
"Why don't you even have a girlfriend? You shouldn't? Marriage on your terms is a matter of minutes. Is it too demanding? Or do you have someone in your heart?"
He originally just said it casually, without thinking, Yan Yao paused briefly, then smiled, neither admitting nor denying.
Ling Zhendong knew Yan Yao, and when he saw his reaction, he immediately became happy:
"Sure enough, I have someone in my heart. Tell me, whose girl it is. Let me see if I recognize her. Do you want to match her up with you?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone turned their attention to Yan Yao.
Tang Shaoyu was confused and curious.
Fu Jingchuan's eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and the hand holding the cup tightened slightly.
He glanced at Shiyang.
Shi Yang also looked up curiously at Yan Yao, with surprise and confusion in his soft eyes.
Obviously, she didn't know that Yan Yao liked her.
--------------------------
Yan Yao also glanced at Shiyang.
That look made Shiyang's heart tighten for no reason.
She didn't quite understand the meaning of this look, but it seemed that there were a thousand words hidden in this look. It was a look that Shiyang had never seen before.
She and Yan Yao have known each other for many years, but they have always been polite and their relationship is not deep.
She has never thought about anything other than friends.
But his meaningful glance made Shiyang feel panicked for no reason, and the chopsticks in her hand also tightened a little nervously.
Fu Jingchuan also saw the clenched chopsticks in her hands, his black eyes tightened even more, and the cup in her hand was slowly pressed back to the table.
Ling Zhendong didn't know everyone's different thoughts, and was still looking at Yan Yao eagerly.
Yan Yao pursed his lips slightly, and when he looked at Ling Zhendong, he smiled: "I will introduce you to each other again when I have the chance."
I didn't mean to let everyone know, but it was acquiescence that someone was on my mind.
Ling Zhendong was very happy because of this: "Then I'll wait to drink your wedding wine."
Yan Yao smiled, did not answer, and turned his eyes to Shiyang.
Ling Zhendong's attention has also come to Shiyang: "What about you, when are you planning to do it?"
Shiyang was not used to being the center of attention, so she smiled awkwardly: "I just graduated, so I will focus on work first."
"Again, you are prevaricating the teacher." Ling Zhendong scolded with a smile, and then looked at everyone with regret, "I originally thought that Yangyang and Xiao Fu had similar temperaments, and I also wanted to bring them together, but I didn't expect that they would be I refused at the same time. It’s hard to say what fate is.”
Tang Shaoyu unexpectedly asked Fu Jingchuan.
Fu Jingchuan's face was cold and calm, and he didn't speak.
Tang Shaoyu couldn't help but glance at Shiyang again, and Shiyang just smiled awkwardly, not quite used to such large-scale matchmaking scenes.
Ling Zhendong was afraid that the two of them would feel embarrassed, so he continued with a smile: "But it doesn't matter. Marriage lasts a lifetime, so naturally you have to find someone who is compatible with you."
Then he looked at Fu Jingchuan: "By the way, I have a colleague whose daughter is about the same age as you. She is quite nice. I will introduce her to you later."
Tang Shaoyu quickly took over the words: "Mr. Ling, don't take my job. I just introduced someone to the old man. It is completely customized according to the old man's preferences. We will arrange to meet in the next two days. Maybe he will be right for you." Just get the certificate.”
Shiyang paused slightly while drinking the soup, and then continued to drink the soup calmly.
Ling Zhendong didn't notice and was very happy: "Really? That's a good thing, so I'll congratulate you first."
Yan Yao also looked at Fu Jingchuan: "Congratulations, Mr. Fu." There was no smile in his eyes.
Fu Jingchuan glanced at him, said nothing, and looked straight at Shiyang with his dark eyes.
His gaze on him was too strong for Shiyang to ignore. She had to raise her head and reluctantly curled her lips: "Congratulations, Mr. Fu."
Fu Jingchuan's handsome face was expressionless, and his dark eyes still looked at her motionlessly.
Ling Zhendong also looked at Shiyang, thinking that none of the men he liked liked his most proud disciple, and suddenly fell into an inexplicable sadness. He couldn't help but shake his head and smile, looking at Fu Jingchuan with regret. typical:
"I was still thinking about you and Yan Yao. It would be nice to introduce either of them to Yangyang. I didn't think about the two of you. One has his own preferences and the other has someone he likes. It's a pity."
Shiyang looked up at him awkwardly: "Teacher..."
Ling Zhendong thought she was thin-skinned and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, the teacher won't tell you, I will introduce you to a better one later."
As he spoke, he couldn't help but look at Tang Shaoyu: "Isn't Mr. Tang still single? How is Mr. Tang doing?"
Tang Shaoyu: "..."
Shiyang: "..."
"Mr. Ling."
Fu Jingchuan looked directly at Ling Zhendong. Just as he was about to continue, Yan Yao interrupted: "Teacher."
The solemnity and seriousness in his tone made Ling Zhendong turn his attention to him.
Yan Yao pursed his lips slightly, as if he had made a lot of determination. When he raised his head again, he had already looked at Ling Zhendong: "Teacher, the person I like is Shiyang, you don't need to match her up.
Fu Jingchuan suddenly looked at Yan Yao, and then at Shiyang.
Shiyang was also caught off guard and looked at Yan Yao blankly.
Yan Yao had already looked at her: "Shiyang, I like you. I started liking you when I was your class teacher in college."
Shiyang: "..."
Yan Yao: "I originally wanted to find a suitable opportunity to tell you again. This occasion is not suitable for such a confession, but I was afraid that the teacher would mess up the rules, so I simply went straight to the point."
"I don't mind your past," he said.
