Movies and TV: The heroine of the blind date

…………

Yenching Institute of Fashion Technology

Girls Dormitory Room 404

Seeing Charlene coming back, several of her roommates gathered around her.

"Sister Xia Lin, how did you get along with your domineering president yesterday? Where did he take you to have some romance? Tell us about it now."

In the university girls' dormitory, there are intrigues and also harmony.

Charlene's luck is average. Some of her roommates are materialistic, some are naive, and some are green tea girls, but none of them are bullies. So she gets along with them pretty well, though she still compares with them from time to time.

"I didn't go anywhere, just had a meal."

What Charlene said was simple, but if no one asked further questions, she would be unhappy.

Fortunately, among three roommates, there is always one who will cooperate.

“Is it the Michelin restaurant from last time?”

Ling Jiali is a little materialistic. After the last dinner party, she went to a Michelin restaurant with Xia Lin, and dumped her ex-boyfriend after she came back.

"I didn't go there. He took me to a private restaurant that serves Tan's cuisine. It tasted good, better than the Michelin restaurant last time."

It's a bit Versailles, but you can't blame Xia Lin. Before she met Guan Peng, she was the poorest person in the dormitory and the one who was always shown off.

"In the opera world, everyone learns Tan's style, and in the food world, everyone praises Tan; it is very thoughtful of your brother-in-law to take you to eat Tan's cuisine."

Shen Qing, another roommate of Xia Lin, was still fresh in Guan Peng's memory even though he only met her once.

"Sister, your brother-in-law is so good to you. Tell us what dishes you ate yesterday."

Ma Xiaotian dares to say anything, a genuine naive person.

"What's there to say? It happens to be my birthday next Sunday, so let's go there for a meal together. I'll ask Guan Peng to make the arrangements."

It wasn't just a random promise made by Xia Lin; it was Guan Peng's suggestion after dinner yesterday.

Not to mention the beautiful girls in the girls' dormitory, Guan Peng drove to the company.

Financial Street is the first large-scale, overall and targeted financial industry functional zone in Yanjing City.

Wujiang Investment Bank is located in the heart of Financial Street, on the 18th floor of the Entrepreneurship Building. It was rented at first, but Guan Peng bought the entire 18th floor a month ago.

"Boss Guan, Young Master Zhao is here again and is waiting for you in the reception room."

As soon as Guan Peng entered the company gate, the front desk receptionist Yu Leyan came up to him and said.

"okay, I get it"

Hearing the three words "Mr. Zhao", Guan Peng was overwhelmed. He was really like a fly that could not be driven away.

"Xiao Peng, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you for a long time. Can you count me as part of this recruitment?"

This familiar tone, coupled with a stern face, that's right, it's exactly the one that says "don't show off" - Zhao Ruilong.

"Brother Long, why are you here again? Didn't I tell you that the next round of recruitment funds are full?"

You are not allowed to show off in Handong, but in Yanjing, Master Zhao is nothing. Guan Peng is not afraid of him, he just doesn't want to make things awkward.

"You're just kidding me. I've heard that you sold 5000 million shares last night during dinner, and the one you gave to Wang Jun from Brothers Entertainment is him. He also has a share. I think 5 million is not too much."

Walking into Guan Peng's office, Zhao Ruilong sat on the guest sofa with a familiar look and started talking.

"Are you checking me?"

Guan Peng sat in his seat, lit a cigar, and tapped his fingers on the desk. The atmosphere suddenly became cold.

"No, no, it was Wang Jun who was making a fuss. I just heard it. How could I possibly investigate you?"

Knowing that this was in Yanjing and the man in front of him was not someone to be trifled with, Zhao Ruilong gave in.

"Brother Long, there must be rules for everything we do. We agreed that the next round of subscriptions will be 200 billion, and it can't be more. Your subscribed share will be reduced from others, which is very difficult for me to do." Guan Peng still didn't give in.

"Xiao Peng, I know you didn't help me because my dad and your uncle didn't get along in the past, but they have theirs and we have ours; before you became rich, I was pretty good to you, right?"

Although Zhao Ruilong went astray, it would have been impossible for him to drag Gao Yuliang into this situation without some skills.

"Okay, 5 million, deducted from my share; but let me be frank, I can't guarantee whether I can make money or not."

Knowing that the Zhao family still had many years of prosperity left, Guan Peng relented.

"Okay, Xiaopeng, your ability is obvious to everyone in the industry, and you earn money from foreigners. I feel at ease handing the funds over to you."

Zhao Ruilong definitely knows more than Wang Jun, so he has nothing to worry about.

"Just this once, and don't shout about it everywhere." Although Guan Peng knew that Zhao Ruilong had some common sense, he still reminded him.

"Don't worry, I'm not an ignorant bumpkin like Wang Jun."

Zhao Ruilong made repeated assurances and kicked Wang Jun by the way.

"Aunt, I'm going to your place for dinner tonight. Please make me something delicious."

Guan Peng's parents live abroad all year round, so he is closer to his uncle and aunt. He also wants to hear his uncle's opinion on Zhao Ruilong's affairs.

Guan Peng's uncle, Guan Zhaoqing, works at the Supreme People's Procuratorate. When he was young, he was ruthless in handling cases and was retaliated against and shot. Because his position was not very good, he never had any children. Although Guan Peng is his nephew, he is no different from his son to him.

"Come if you want to, what else do you want to bring? Remember to take it away later."

Guan Zhaoqing was a little unhappy when he saw Guan Peng coming to his house with things.

"It's not for you. I cut a nice piece of material a while ago and had it made into two pairs of bracelets, one for my mother and one for my aunt."

Guan Peng smiled and handed the bracelet he had just taken to his aunt Liu Yue.

"This is too expensive. Your uncle is right. You should take it back later."

Liu Yue opened the jewelry box and looked at the transparent glass jade bracelet. She was obviously moved, but still refused.

"Aunt, if you don't accept me, I won't dare to come to eat again in the future."

"this?"

After hearing what Guan Peng said, Liu Yue was a little undecided. She really liked the thing, but she was afraid that her husband would be unhappy.

"If you like it, just accept it. You are not a stranger." Looking at the excited eyes of his wife who felt he owed her so much, Guan Zhaoqing spoke.

Chapter 5 Blind Date

During dinner, Guan Peng drank two glasses of wine with Guan Zhaoqing, and took advantage of the alcohol to tell him about Zhao Ruilong.

"I don't like Zhao Lichun. He is very particular about appearances and lacks respect for the power in his hands..."

Guan Zhaoqing had nothing to hide from his nephew and told him everything he knew.

"What about Zhao Ruilong?"

Zhao Lichun is still too far away for Guan Peng, and he wants to hear his uncle's opinion of Zhao Ruilong.

"Although I have never met Zhao Ruilong in person, I have heard about him making money everywhere under the name of Zhao Lichun. If you can avoid contact with such people, you should avoid contact with them."

It turns out that few people working in the disciplinary inspection department are easy to fool. Guan Zhaoqing explained the problems of Zhao Lichun and his son clearly and plainly.

"I don't want to deal with him, but he's got me."

Guan Peng also expressed his own opinion, saying that he did not want to rely on the Zhao father and son to gain benefits.

"You've already agreed to it this time, so forget it. If there's a next time, just push it to me and ask him to come find me."

After knowing Guan Peng's thoughts, Guan Zhaoqing said domineeringly.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about these things over a meal. Xiaopeng, you are 26 years old this year, and it has been two years since you graduated. You are now successful in your career. Isn't it time to consider personal issues?"

Liu Yue was not interested in the Zhao father and son. She was more concerned about Guan Peng's marriage.

"Aunt, that's my age in Chinese lunar calendar. I'm actually only 25. Are you trying to force me to get married?"

Everything would be fine if you are not married, but if you do those things after getting married, you will be morally condemned. Therefore, Guan Peng really has no plans to get married before he is 40.

"What do you mean by forced marriage? It sounds so harsh. Lao Guan, do you have any impression of the youngest daughter of the Zhong family?"

Although Liu Yue is not a mother, she cares about her mother.

"You mean Zhong Xiaoai? I remember her. Is she a pretty girl?"

Young Master Zhao had already appeared, so Guan Peng was not too surprised when he suddenly heard the name Zhong Xiaoai.

"You think it's a good idea, too. Her mother and I are in the same department, and I want to find someone who knows her well. I thought of Xiaopeng, and after telling her about the situation, she was very interested. Why don't you meet with Zhong Xiaoai tomorrow, Xiaopeng? I'll help you make the contact now."

Liu Yue is a pioneer who acts in a swift and decisive manner. She said she wanted to ask Guan Peng's opinion and the call had already been made.

Seeing this, Guan Peng had nothing else to say, he could only spread his hands towards Guan Zhaoqing;

Guan Zhaoqing didn't say anything and gave him a helpless look.

"Okay, let's let the young people get familiar with it first, so that we can help arrange it."

Well, the two aunts were so excited about the conversation that they started talking about the wedding.

"Xiao Peng, I have already agreed with your Aunt Zhang that tomorrow is Saturday and Xiao Ai happens to be free. Let's meet at the Starbucks in Wangfujing at 10 am."

Liu Yue said to Guan Peng after hanging up the phone.

"Aunt, I don't want to get married so early. Even if I do, I don't plan to find a woman in the system."

Guan Peng expressed his thoughts.

"It's just a meeting. You don't know how beautiful Xiao Ai is."

Liu Yue continued to instigate.

"Let's meet. If it's not suitable, forget it. We can't force you to get married."

It can be seen that Guan Zhaoqing has a good impression of Zhong Xiaoai, so he also spoke.

"Then meet..."

Knowing that Liu Yue had already helped to make an appointment, Guan Zhaoqing also spoke up, and Guan Peng agreed.

Wanshou Road

Zhong Family Courtyard

A similar scene is happening.

"Mom, I already told you I have a boyfriend, why are you still arranging a blind date for me?"

Zhong Xiaoai was dissatisfied with her mother making decisions for her.

"Xiao Ai, your Hou Liangping looks good, but he is from the countryside. Mom doesn't think highly of your future." Zhang Yuehua said.

"What's wrong with coming from the countryside? Dad is from the countryside too. Aren't you living a happy life?"

Zhong Xiaoai is the only daughter in the family. She has been spoiled since childhood and has no fear of telling her mother anything.

"Things are different now. Besides, Guan Peng is really good. Mom has already asked around for you."

Zhang Yuehua was not angry when her daughter criticized her, and she continued to persuade her.

"What's good about that? Since you think he's good, you can go for me tomorrow."

This was said a bit without thinking, and before Zhang Yuehua could say anything, Zhong Wei became unhappy.

"Xiao Ai, how can you talk to your mother like that? Apologize to her now."

If we were to ask who Zhong Xiaoai is most afraid of at home, it would naturally be her father Zhong Wei. When she saw him speak, she knew she had said the wrong thing.

"Dad, my sister is still young, don't say that to her."

"Yes, Dad, I suddenly received a notice that I have to go on a blind date tomorrow. Everyone would be unhappy."

Because it was a rest day, except for the youngest son Zhong Jifu who was studying at university in Hong Kong, the rest of the Zhong family was there. The eldest son Zhong Jiqiang and his wife Mu Qing all tried to persuade them.

The custom of marrying someone of equal social status will be passed down through the ages and is naturally the choice of most people.

The dragon slayer eventually became a dragon.

He didn't understand it when he was young, but now that he is older, Zhong Wei clearly knows that he can get to where he is today thanks to the help of his deceased father-in-law, so he is not optimistic about Hou Liangping, his daughter's choice.

"Your mother has agreed, so go meet him tomorrow."
