Rebirth, a greater psychological age, and a better foundation do not completely mean that a person will definitely be able to fully adapt to another level of communication and getting along in a short period of time.
Xu Tingsheng in his bones is actually not at such a level.
Of course, Fang Yuqing is a special case. Apart from this "heterogeneity", for Xu Tingsheng, staying among a group of classmates and friends with ordinary families and ordinary lives, and getting along in the simplest and casual way is the most important thing for Xu Tingsheng. like life. That's much easier and more enjoyable than doing this.
Therefore, at Tianyi's previous reception, he tried his best to keep silent when it was not necessary.
If on a relatively unfamiliar occasion, you know that you have shown all your muscles and claws, but the result is still not enough, then the best way is to maintain a sense of mystery and let others guess you.
They will guess you like you don't even know yourself.
The cat will be enlarged into a tiger.
Xu Tingsheng's biggest advantage is his sense of mystery. Although Hucheng has been put on the table, his background from a small county farmer's family and his sudden and rapid rise still make people feel incredible.
This alone is enough to make people dare not take it lightly, keep guessing, the more they guess... the more important the result will be.
For these people in front of him, Xu Tingsheng had participated in activities in their circle several times before, eating, drinking and playing, but never involved business or money. In fact, he didn't really fit into the circle.
Therefore, Xu Tingsheng's biggest principle in communicating with them has always been to be as polite and friendly as possible, but at the same time reduce in-depth communication and contact, and maintain a sense of mystery.
If Xu Tingsheng is now waving the banner of mutual sincerity and telling everyone that a college student who started from scratch and has made some achievements is going to enter the real estate industry. There are probably not too many people who will think about it seriously. And there will definitely not be so many people present tonight, especially those unfamiliar faces.
But now, Xu Tingsheng gave these people the impression that that incomprehensible foreign boy, the guy we have been talking about for a long time, said that he was going to start a real estate business in Yanzhou.
Then you must see it!
There were more than 40 people at the scene. Xu Tingsheng probably looked around while eating and drinking. There might be some joining in the fun, but there were absolutely no idlers, including the few strange-looking women present. Xu Tingsheng could tell at a glance that they were not based on some second They came in as women of the modern era, and they were enough to step in on their own.
Even, some of them may have lowered their status.
This is the first scene tonight, and the main content is nothing more than getting to know each other, getting familiar with each other, exchanging feelings, confirming the truth of the matter by the way, and understanding the general situation.
Xu Tingsheng politely and enthusiastically greeted and chatted with everyone who came forward, and also took the initiative to greet everyone nearby. When someone asked about the acquisition of land, he said that he really had this idea and hoped that everyone could cooperate if there was a chance. , can help a lot.
The topic will generally stop here, and those who really intend to participate in the main topic will naturally stay and participate in the second session.
Because he loves money, Xu Tingsheng eats seriously when no one needs to be greeted, and he eats a little bit back. From the beginning to the end of the scene, he was the only one who seemed to be here for the meal.
Huang Yaming came back after a round trip and said, "The abalone and the bird's nest are not ready yet?"
Xu Tingsheng wiped his mouth and said, "It's over."
Huang Yaming said with a bitter face: "Brother, you've gotten to this point, can you take this poor fellow away? People will lose their identity if they see it."
Xu Tingsheng retorted: "Didn't you ask about abalone and bird's nest as soon as you came?"
Huang Yaming picked up the dishes on the table and said, "I'm already poor, and besides abalone and bird's nest, I don't know any other expensive ones. Maybe I don't know if I eat them."
"Me too." Xu Tingsheng said.
…
Xu Tingsheng had just finished a simple and ordinary exchange of greetings with a beautiful woman in her mid-twenties, in a black one-piece dress and slightly curly hair. Fang Yuqing walked over with an empty wine glass.
This dinner was not considered a formal occasion. Everyone was dressed casually, except for Fang Yuqing, who was wearing a shirt with the top button tightly buttoned. As for the reason, it was because his neck and chest were full of scratches... the day before yesterday when Yu Qing first resisted and then became enthusiastic when he scratched.
"Is it hot? Let's go. No one at the scene understands something like this." Xu Tingsheng pushed him, "I just didn't see it. Yu Qing looked so gentle. It turned out to be a female leopard."
Fang Yuqing has been used to being teased by Xu Tingsheng and the others these two days, so he simply ignored it, raised his finger and pointed at the leaving figure in front of him, and said, "The woman who was talking to you just now, her name is Ye Qing."
Xu Tingsheng replied, "I know, she just said it."
"Thirty, doesn't it look like it? Not married yet."
"Is it not, so what?"
"Do you want to think about using your strengths to get her done?"
"Your sister is good at it. But, which one is this?"
Because of Xu Tingsheng, Fang Yuqing and the others have already adapted to the word "your sister" in advance, and they have personally promoted the popularization of it. No matter what, this word is much more acceptable than your mother.
"Recognized as the richest man in Yanzhou, the Ye family," Fang Yuqing said in a low voice, "Although Ye Qing has an older brother, but he is not as strong as her, so the family should still hesitate, and the siblings are still fighting, I bet on her Win. I didn't expect her to come today."
"Then what?"
"Then I wondered if she would go to the next show. If she was willing to participate in the end, our chances of success would be much higher."
"Then we'll see."
"Aren't you considering getting her done?"
"Fix your sister."
"I'm just a sister. It's not like you don't know her. Why, are you interested?"
"...Forget it."
…
At the end of the first scene, Wu Kun called the nightclub to continue the booth, and he had already arranged a package for the VIPs.
The second one went to a nightclub, but it wasn't for fun. Almost everyone on the scene understood it, so it was time to find a place to play. Find a place to play, and the rest who really wanted to go would naturally go there.
Xu Tingsheng had four people in a car, and Tan Yao, who deliberately controlled his drinking, was in charge of driving.
Driving this way is the best opportunity for the four of us to communicate in private. If we stay in a box later, it will be inconvenient to say a lot of things.
"Tingsheng, what do you think?" Huang Yaming asked.
"There are a few that are much more enthusiastic than the reactions and attitudes you told me." Xu Tingsheng said.
"That's a good thing." Tan Yao, who was driving, answered.
"Not necessarily." Xu Tingsheng said.
"Just now a few of them patted me on the chest and told me to make a fortune together, and they were very interested." Tan Yao said.
"I also have a few here." Huang Yaming said.
"There are a few on my side who don't have any guarantees, but they ask very seriously and carefully." Fang Yuqing said.
"Which ones?"
Xu Tingsheng asked, then stopped Tan Yao and Huang Yaming who were about to answer, and said, "I'll listen to Yu Qing first."
"Chen Yan, Gao Yupo, Jiangjin..." Fang Yuqing said five names.
Xu Tingsheng nodded, and carefully reviewed the scenes and conversations between himself and these five people in his mind.
"Could it be that those of us who yell fiercely don't actually know how to participate?" Huang Yaming asked Xu Tingsheng.
"Not really, it's just that most of them tend to follow the crowd, and they are not the ones we need to control and break through later on. We take what should be taken down, and they will naturally follow... But the few Yu Qing said, If we have ideas or doubts in our hearts, we should pay attention." Xu Tingsheng replied.
"So it's like this..." Huang Yaming scratched his head and said suddenly, "Hey, Tingsheng, I've never figured it out. When did you learn these things? I stayed with you in my freshman year of high school. So you don't know how to do these things. Eight crutches."
Xu Tingsheng definitely couldn't answer this question, because most of these things actually came from his running around in the past few years in his previous life.
"Reading." Xu Tingsheng found the most common answer to prevaricate.
"Looking at Maoshu", Fang Yuqing turned the topic back and said, "Brother Kun will participate, and it may be very strong."
He said for sure.
"Why?" Xu Tingsheng asked.
"Brother Kun likes to gamble." Fang Yuqing said.
"Yes, dice, mahjong, cards, Brother Kun is good at everything. With his hand, he will never starve to death anywhere." Tan Yao answered from the side. He stayed in Wu Kun nightclub for a while.
"It's not a gamble," Fang Yuqing said back, "I mean, his life is a gamble. Don't forget, Wu Kun is the one in our group who has no background at all. From penniless to thirty To achieve what he is today, he bet on almost every step. At least three times I know, the first time he gambled on his life, and the last two times he gambled on his wealth... He won every time, and it was only in this way that we are today. These people have to call Brother Kun."
"But now that he's at this level, he still gambles?" Tan Yao had always admired and admired Wu Kun, and now he was a little excited when he asked.
"When people reach a new level, they will see new things and have new desires. Therefore, truly ambitious people can never stop." Xu Tingsheng said with a smile, "I don't seem to be."
"Are you going to look at it later? Maybe you don't even know yourself now," Fang Yuqing said, "but the reason is indeed the same. If Tan Yao thinks this way, then Wu Kun's first bet in his life is actually just It's enough for him to live An Sheng's life, the fact is that he hasn't lived that life, keep gambling... So I say he is a good gambler, and he may never stop."
"Why do you think he will choose this time to gamble?" Xu Tingsheng asked.
"Wu Kun is 32 years old this year. What he has now is not fundamentally different from what he had when he was 29 years old. In other words, he has been looking for it for three years, but he has not found a room for breakthrough. .this is one."
Fang Yuqing said:
"Second, his interest in real estate has not been a day or two, but in the final analysis, he is a wild road, and no one really takes him to play."
"I'm Yeluzi too." Xu Tingsheng said.
"I know, but he doesn't know, and none of them know. What you and your family have done over the past year makes everyone feel that your background is unpredictable, but it must be very thick. Me and Your relationship, including the way you get along, also deepened their impression." Fang Yuqing said.
"Continue talking." Xu Tingsheng said.
"Actually, I'm a little skeptical, and both of them must be too. Even we, sometimes feel that we can't see through you. You kid sings, runs a company, runs a school, and invests in Tianyi... You will come up with a strange thing in a while, but every time If they are all successful, there won’t be any talented people behind them, right?”
After Fang Yuqing finished speaking, Tan Yao and Huang Yaming nodded in agreement.
"I didn't ask you to say this, say three."
Xu Tingsheng simply and rudely bypassed this topic.
"Three, Brother Kun paid attention to you before, and then admired you very much. Don't think that it is easy to finish things like last time. In fact, the biggest trouble is the ending of that kind of thing. He is willing to take it for you, which is not in itself Easy. So, I guess he's betting on you."
After talking about Wu Kun, a very appealing ally has basically been confirmed.
Fang Yuqing changed to talking about another person.
"There's a guy named Ding Sen, you'll pay attention later," he said.
"A good thing?" Xu Tingsheng asked.
"Trouble." Fang Yuqing replied.
"Why, I haven't heard of this person, did I accidentally offend him?"
"Ding Sen is twenty-five years old, and he has been chasing Lu Zhixin since he was twenty."
After Fang Yuqing finished speaking, Huang Yaming yelled: "This is too fucking shameless. At that time, five years ago, Lu Zhixin was only in junior high school, right?"
Shameless? This... Xu Tingsheng lowered his head and rubbed his brows, smiled awkwardly, and said, "This... is not shameless, they... are only five years apart."
"Five years old is fine, but when he started chasing her, Lu Zhixin was only in junior high school, first year? Second year? This is too beastly. How could he be ashamed?" Huang Yaming continued to yell.
The other two nodded in agreement.
This scolding, they didn't know that they not only scolded Ding Sen, but also scolded Xu Tingsheng.
Xu Tingsheng won't do it at all, what if Xiao Xiang Ning is exposed in the future? Do you still have the law to live
"Did he catch up?" Huang Yaming asked.
Without waiting for Fang Yuqing's answer, Tan Yao rushed over and said, "That's for sure, otherwise Lu Zhixin would be like Brother Xu, be able to work for him and live in the same house?"
Regarding the point of living in the same house, Xu Tingsheng could argue confidently, but because of the previous two days, those two nights... he lost his confidence.
"Cough cough," Xu Tingsheng coughed twice, and said to Fang Yuqing, "What's Ding Sen's background?"
"There are both officials and businessmen, and they have a cooperative relationship with the Lu family. The official background is not as good as Chen Yan, and the wealth is not as good as Gao Yupo, but together, they are better than them all."
Fang Yuqing told Xu Tingsheng Ding Sen's strength by way of comparison.
Just as Ding Sen was talking, a red Ferrari sped by outside the car window.
"Ye Qing's car." Fang Yuqing said excitedly, "Look at the direction, she will go to the second round."
"Oh." Xu Tingsheng said.
"Aren't you surprised?"
"a little bit."
"I can't figure out what you can give her? Even if you really succeed and make money, this amount of money is not a big figure for her family at present. Don't underestimate us, the richest man in Yanzhou, Ye Jiazhen If you take it out, you can be on Forbes."
"It's not money, it's that I can give her the opportunity to prove that she is better than her brother outside the family."
"Then why is it you? If she wants to prove herself by making investments and entering real estate, the local real estate companies in Yanzhou are more reliable than you, right? And they themselves have a relationship with the Ye family. You are just a newcomer .”
"Because I'm a rookie and just finished. So, I'm the most suitable."
"Why?"
"Light. There are also those local real estate companies. Since you said that they are all related to the Ye family, they must have already stood in line between her and his brother, and it is difficult to fight for it. And I guess the result of standing in line , she should be the weaker side... So, it is just right for me to come out now. If there is no accident, we already have another powerful ally."
"Do whatever you want." Huang Yaming said happily.
"Don't focus on being happy, she is actually dangerous, so be careful to be swallowed by her." Xu Tingsheng said.
"You'll be fine if you take care of her." Fang Yuqing said.
"Your sister." Xu Tingsheng said.
"Then I'll go."
"And I."
Huang Yaming and Tan Yao volunteered.
"Okay, you guys go, but be polite..." Xu Tingsheng said.
"Don't mess around," Fang Yuqing said.
"No nonsense. Don't think that a rich woman must be special. No matter how rich she is, she is also a single woman in her thirties. I don't believe that the saying 'thirty is like a wolf' has no scientific basis at all. Come on, both of you, fight for it. Put her in bed." Xu Tingsheng said with a smile.
When Tan Yao and Huang Yaming heard about sleeping clothes, their fighting spirit was high.
…
The car stopped at the entrance of the nightclub, Xu Tingsheng and the other three got out of the car first.
Unexpectedly, Lu Zhixin just got out of another car.
"Xu Tingsheng? Why, why are you here?"
Lu Zhixin was obviously a little surprised, and also had a rare panic and nervousness.
"Come here to talk about something," Xu Tingsheng said with a smile, "What about you? It's not normal for a girl to come to a nightclub."
Lu Zhixin was still a little flustered and said: "I, a friend of mine, cousin... no, he is the son of my father's friend..."
"Ding Sen?" Xu Tingsheng asked.
"Hmm... huh? How do you know?" Lu Zhixin asked.
"I just met. You are busy with your work, I will go in first."
After Xu Tingsheng finished speaking calmly, he walked in first. How should I put it, I'm really in a bad mood... Maybe it's because the place where Lu Zhixin and Ding Sen met was a nightclub, and she came here alone.
Of course, Xu Tingsheng knew that this kind of displeasure was unreasonable, it was only because of the man's possessiveness. A man's usual habit is that only he, the state official, is allowed to set fire, and women are not allowed to light lamps... I can't stand a little fire.
Seeing Xu Tingsheng walk a few steps away, Lu Zhixin, who was stunned for a moment, finally chased after him with an expression of urgency.
She grabbed Xu Tingsheng's arm and said anxiously, "No, Xu Tingsheng, listen to me. He said he was here, and I couldn't have said it. Then my dad called me and said he wanted a new job. Contract... The two of us have cooperation. You see, I have a contract... "
"I think this is the reason why Ding Sen was able to chase Lu Zhixin for five years. If one of the two people can really make contact with each other without giving them a chance, the other party won't be able to last so long no matter what."
"Perhaps, there are also the meanings of the parents of both parties."
Xu Tingsheng thought for a while, looked into Lu Zhixin's eyes, and said seriously: "It's okay, I know your situation. He has been chasing you for many years, and he hasn't caught up yet. But... Zhixin, I want to tell you, You are actually free."
Xu Tingsheng's last words were actually his heartfelt words after self-reflection, Lu Zhixin is indeed free. With Xu Tingsheng's chaotic and uncertain relationship, who can he ask for
Especially Lu Zhixin.
However, Lu Zhixin's feelings were not like this. From this sentence, she heard irony, heartache, patience, giving up, and maybe more. Lu Zhixin, who had always been indifferent and domineering, was at a loss for what to do.
"I... not... I..."
"Zhixin, are you here?"
Just when Lu Zhixin didn't know how to respond to Xu Tingsheng, Ding Sen came out from the door with a happy face. He saw Lu Zhixin holding Xu Tingsheng's arm, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes...
Immediately, pretending not to notice, Ding Sen casually walked between Xu Tingsheng and Lu Zhixin, separating them.
"I haven't seen you for a year, Zhixin, you are getting more and more beautiful." Ding Sen said.
"I… "
Lu Zhixin tilted her head, wanting to see Xu Tingsheng who was blocked by Ding Sen.
"I booked a box, let's go in."
Ding Sen reached out to grab Lu Zhixin's hand.
Lu Zhixin avoided it without a trace.
Ding Sen was not embarrassed either, instead of showing any signs, he held Lu Zhixin's waist with one hand, and walked inside. This kind of bluffing action is generally considered to be a gentleman and a manifestation of politeness in social situations, but in fact it is a very "dominant" action... because once the man moves forward and the woman does not keep up with this action, bluffing will become real.
Lu Zhixin still wanted to dodge, but if she wanted to dodge this movement, it couldn't be a small and invisible movement, she needed to jump away with her whole body... It's not very polite, it's very embarrassing to the other party.
"By the way, is there a problem with Uncle Lu's turnover recently? For this new contract, it seems that Uncle Lu said that he will extend the payment period. My dad is quite embarrassed. Not to mention my brother, who has always opposed it. What do you say? Business is business, and the rules cannot be changed randomly.
As for me, I feel that the two of us have cooperated for so long, and the relationship is there. It must not be counted as a business relationship, right? Zhixin. "
After Ding Sen finished speaking, Lu Zhixin stopped immediately.
After hesitating for a moment, he stepped up and followed Ding Sen to the door.
Xu Tingsheng and the others still stayed at the door. Tan Yaogang, who had parked his car, rushed over and saw Lu Zhixin's back coming in, pointed at him and said, "Is that Lu Zhixin? What's the situation?"
"I don't know." Huang Yaming said.
Just now when Ding Sen came over, Xu Tingsheng, who was a bit tangled in his heart, backed away a little, so he didn't hear clearly the conversation between the two of them afterwards, he only saw Lu Zhixin's hesitation and dodge.
However, she eventually followed suit.
"I'm not angry, I'm not angry, I have no right to be angry." Xu Tingsheng thought to himself.
"Do you want to mess with him?" Tan Yao said.
Xu Tingsheng smiled wryly, and said, "I'm a childhood sweetheart. Let's go."
After talking about leaving, Xu Tingsheng deliberately stayed at the end. After the three of Huang Yaming walked away, Xu Tingsheng found Wu Kun who was waiting at the door, and whispered in his ear, "Brother Kun... that Ding Sen's box, please let me pay attention to it." ?”
Wu Kun looked at Xu Tingsheng, smiled, didn't ask anything, and said, "Okay. Don't worry."
"Thank you Kun, I'm sorry."
After Xu Tingsheng thanked him, he went all the way upstairs to comfort himself: "I'm not jealous, I'm just worried; I'm not jealous, I'm just worried; I'm not jealous..."
