Chapter 178 Banquet Fight with Xu Wenqiang
"Brother Wen~~" Ding Li winked at Xu Wenqiang.
"Ali~~" Xu Wenqiang stopped Ding Li with a stern look.
"Oh~~" Ding Li stopped talking with an embarrassed look on his face.
Xu Wenqiang came to see Feng Jingyao today because he really had something to do.
A few days ago, Xu Wenqiang's Lily Nightclub held a raffle for kisses, and the business was so hot that it snatched away all the business from Jin Rong's Biyao Nightclub. Jin Rong was furious and asked Xu Wenqiang to go to Lao Zhengxing for negotiations.
Although Xu Wenqiang rose rapidly in Shanghai, his time was short and his foundation was unstable. He did not want to make too many enemies at this time.
So Xu Wenqiang went to the meeting alone and promised Jin Rong that he would no longer hold the raffle and kiss giveaway event, giving Jin Rong face. Both sides managed to suppress the matter.
But what was even more unfortunate was that Ding Li used his small hoe to dig into Jin Rong's women and slept with Jia Yiren, one of Jin Rong's lovers.
This made Jin Rong feel extremely humiliated and he vowed to take revenge. In the past few days, he began to smash and harass Ding Li and Xu Wenqiang's Lily Nightclub.
Xu Wenqiang was going to ask Feng Jingyao to mediate. It was just a woman's matter, wasn't it? But Feng Jingyao had guests here today, so it was inconvenient for him to bring up the matter in front of the guests.
As soon as Xu Wenqiang arrived today, Zhang Dongliang guessed which events in the plot might be involved.
In the original plot, it was after Ding Li killed Jin Rong that Xu Wenqiang asked Feng Jingyao to mediate. Theoretically speaking, Xu Wenqiang came to Feng Jingyao to mediate in a later plot.
But Zhang Dongliang knows that as a troublemaker, as long as he appears in the plot, it will be completely unrecognizable, so he cannot consider it based on that timeline.
Judging from Xu Wenqiang's style of not visiting someone unless there is something important, he must have something to do when he came to see Feng Jingyao.
As an old fox, Feng Jingyao must have known that Xu Wenqiang would not come to visit him unless there was something wrong. If he came to visit him, it must be something very difficult, otherwise he would not come to him for help.
Xu Wenqiang is not Feng Jingyao's subordinate. Feng Jingyao doesn't want to worry about and take the trouble to settle many things for him. That would consume his own resources and would basically be a thankless task, so he doesn't want to care.
But how to shut Xu Wenqiang up is a problem.
It happened that Xu Wenqiang came at the wrong time, as Zhang Dongliang happened to be a guest there, so he was kept by Feng Jingyao.
Since Xu Wenqiang couldn't complain to Feng Jingyao in front of outsiders, Feng Jingyao was spared the trouble of handling matters for him, which was a win-win situation.
Every old fox is not simple. After realizing this, Zhang Dongliang couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Feng Jingyao's shrewdness.
As Feng Chengcheng's savior, there is no problem in hosting a banquet for Zhang Dongliang today and having Feng Chengcheng sit at the table and eat together.
It was a bit inappropriate for Feng Chengcheng to sit at the table in front of Xu Wenqiang, an outsider. I don't know why, but Feng Jingyao arranged it this way.
Maybe he wanted to choose a good son-in-law for his daughter. Xu Wenqiang had always been his favorite young man, and there was also Zhang Dongliang, who was also a young leader.
It was not a bad thing to let his daughter meet these outstanding young people. Regardless of whether it was in accordance with etiquette or not, it was a family dinner anyway, so he let Feng Chengcheng sit at the table.
As a young person who has seen Western culture, Feng Chengcheng is no stranger to banquets. The two young men sitting at the table are both excellent, and she has no objection to this and is happy to sit at the table and eat with them.
As for Wang Yueqi, as long as there is something delicious, she can eat with anyone.
This strange dinner party started in the Feng Mansion.
Xu Wenqiang had a very strange feeling when facing Zhang Dongliang. He felt as if he had been stripped naked. As a man, this feeling made him feel very humiliated and scared.
Xu Wenqiang thought he was a calm, almost cold person, and he never bothered about unfounded things. But the feeling of being seen through still made him uncomfortable, which was why he stayed for dinner today.
"Come on, let me first toast to Mr. Zhang with this glass of wine today. Thank you Mr. Zhang for saving my daughter's life." Feng Jingyao raised the wine glass and gestured to Zhang Dongliang.
Zhang Dongliang also raised his glass: "Mr. Feng, you are too polite. At that time, everyone would have taken action. I just happened to be there at the right time."
"Well, no matter what, you saved Cheng Cheng's life. Please drink this cup, Mr. Zhang."
Feng Chengcheng looked at the two men: "They are both very handsome~~ Mr. Xu is handsome and elegant, but a little old-fashioned. Mr. Zhang gives people a free and easy feeling. No matter which of these two men is my man~~"
When Feng Chengcheng thought of this, her heart beat faster and her face turned a little red. At this time, she didn't think of Chen Hanlin at all.
"Mr. Zhang, I'd like to toast you as well. Thank you for saving my life." Feng Chengcheng also raised his glass and gestured to Zhang Dongliang.
"You're welcome, Miss Feng." Zhang Dongliang also raised his glass and took a sip of the wine in the glass.
"Mr. Zhang, I'd also like to offer you a toast to thank you for your heroic act yesterday. I have always admired heroes." Xu Wenqiang also raised his glass and gestured to Zhang Dongliang.
"Mr. Xu is too polite. How can I be called a hero? It's just a coincidence. Mr. Xu is a hero. He has built a large family business in Shanghai at such a young age. I admire him so much."
Zhang Dongliang turned his head and looked at Ding Li: "Mr. Ding, your arm doesn't seem to be feeling well."
"Ali was slightly injured at the station yesterday, but the injury is minor and he will be well soon." Xu Wenqiang answered for Ding Li.
"Oh, that's unfortunate."
Zhang Dongliang looked at Ding Li and said, "Mr. Ding, it seems that he has a lot of luck with women."
Xu Wenqiang's heart skipped a beat: "Mr. Zhang, what does that mean? Mr. Zhang can also read faces?"
Zhang Dongliang smiled slightly: "I don't know how to read faces. I just saw that Mr. Ding has a big strawberry mark on his neck."
"Strawberry marks?" Everyone was stunned for a moment before they realized what Zhang Dongliang meant. They turned their heads to look at Ding Li's neck, and sure enough, there was a faint red mark there.
"It's really embarrassing." Xu Wenqiang was really furious about Ding Li's misdeeds.
"Mr. Zhang has a really good eye." Xu Wenqiang laughed.
"Mr. Zhang, now that you've come to Shanghai, I wonder what industry you're pursuing?" Xu Wenqiang quickly changed the subject.
"I can't compare to Mr. Xu's generosity. Mr. Xu has a big family and a big business, but I am just a small business owner. I opened a pharmacy in the British Concession~~Oh, it was originally called the British Concession, now it should be called the International Settlement, and I make a living there."
"Mr. Xu, when I was strolling around the Bund, I heard many people say that the Lily Nightclub was Mr. Xu's place?"
"I'm ashamed to say that this is my place." Zhang Dongliang suddenly brought up this topic. Xu Wenqiang was a little confused, but he was very patient and wanted to hear what Zhang Dongliang had to say.
"Oh, I heard people on the Bund talking about it. They said that the Lily Nightclub was holding a patriotic lottery and giving away kisses.
I was thinking, I am also very patriotic, when can I go to Mr. Xu's nightclub to participate in the patriotic lottery? "
