Coming out from the VIP room, Gandalf has been waiting at the end of the corridor for a long time.
Xiao Zheng gave Gandalf a strange look: "Do you know we won't talk for too long?"
Gandalf smiled quite heartily: "Indeed. I know you won't talk for too long. "
"Why are you so sure?" Xiao Zheng curiously asked.
"Because Lin Laoyao didn't talk to him for too long." Gandalf smiled a bit mysteriously. "I heard that after talking to Lin Laoyao, the president lost his temper."
Xiao Zheng was stunned for a moment before asking: "Then after talking to me, he might also lose his temper."
"I believe you won't embarrass the president." Gandalf shrugged.
"That's hard to say."
The two chatted as they walked, discussing where to go for a late night snack. But just as they stepped out of the elevator, Lu Xi suddenly appeared in front of the two.
"Boss Xiao, are you done talking?" Lu Xi greeted in a very enthusiastic manner. As before, he ignored Gandalf.
"En." Xiao Zheng politely nodded. But because of his relationship with Gandalf, he didn't show any extra expression.
In fact, Xiao Zheng doesn't have much opinion about Lu Xi. Moreover, the enmity between Lu Xi and Gandalf isn't too much. After all, the two sides have different interests and different starting points, which led to today's tense situation.
Moreover, from Xiao Zheng's point of view, Lu Xi is still a relatively good young master.
At least for now.
"Boss Xiao, if you're not tired, how about we go out for a drink or two tonight?" Shall we go out for a drink tonight? "Lu Xi warmly invited.
"Tonight?" Xiao Zheng smiled with a hint of embarrassment on his face.
"Of course. I'm eager to be friends with Boss Xiao. "Lu Xi said frankly.
"I've already made an appointment to have a late night snack with Mr. Gandalf. I'm afraid — "Xiao Zheng said with some hesitation.
He didn't want to hit Lu Xi's face.
You don't hit a smiling face. Xiao Zheng could feel Lu Xi's sincerity and enthusiasm from his actions.
But he also will not offend Gandalf for Lucian. It's not that he can't afford to offend Gandalf, but he and Gandalf have long established a good friendship.
He had offended an old friend for a young man he had just met. Xiao Zheng was not that shameless.
"Although it is very abrupt." Lu Xi still did not have the slightest change in his expression. Continue to speak. "It shouldn't be a problem if I join, right?"
As he said this, his eyes finally fell on Gandalf's face. It was obvious that she was asking for his opinion.
"Of course." Gandalf smiled.
In front of Lu Xi, he was, after all, an elder. If he didn't even agree to Lu Xi's request … I'm afraid I won't be able to survive to this day.
With everything ready, Xiao Zheng and Gandalf drove to their destination. Lu Xi's car, a relatively low-key Mercedes-Benz, followed closely behind.
Although Lu Xi was a top playboy, he didn't drive a flashy sports car. This is something that Xiao Zheng appreciates.
But on the other hand, the rich young masters that Xiao Zheng had met in Hua Xia were all rich young masters. Only a few of them are too sharp.
Their good family background and treacherous lives have long taught them that the bird that sticks out will be shot. The tallest tree in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. Anyone who dares to stick their head out will basically not have a good ending.
Although there is a big cultural gap between the East and the West, but when it comes to how people behave, they are very similar.
"I didn't cause you any trouble, did I?" Xiao Zheng looked at Gandalf and asked.
"Not at all." Gandalf smiled wryly. "Speaking of which, I'm the loser in the battle with the Lu Xi family. Our relationship has been so tense that it doesn't do me any good. Now that I can ease the tension between us, it's not a bad thing. "
Xiao Zheng can basically guess this. That's why he didn't refuse Lu Xi at the beginning. Otherwise, Lu Xi obviously wouldn't come to the temple without a reason. Xiao Zheng really has no interest in going through with it.
All he can think about is how to fight this battle with Lin Laoyao. As for other social engagements, Xiao Zheng avoids them as much as possible.
Of the two dates tonight, the first is with the most powerful man in the United States. The second is with the son of the most powerful man in the United States.
Both seem to be irresistible.
Gandalf is very grateful to Xiao Zheng.
In fact, he has every reason to go straight to the appointment. Moreover, he can politely refuse his supper. But not only did he not do so, he even brought the tension between him and Lu Xi together.
Based on this point alone, Xiao Zheng's conduct has basically reached the same level as Gandalf.
This is extremely frightening.
Xiao Zheng is only thirty-five years old. He is in the prime of his life. On the other hand, Gandalf is nearly sixty years old. The two are people from two completely different eras. But in terms of thinking, he can maintain the same posture.
This is enough to prove that Xiao Zheng is progressing at a rocket speed.
Otherwise, he would not be qualified to fight with Lin Laoyao.
Arriving at the destination.
Xiao Zheng and Gandalf directly entered the restaurant.
The United States does not have the habit of eating supper. But if these three men want to eat supper, there must be countless restaurants willing to work overtime.
In fact, the owner of the restaurant is Lu Xi. This restaurant was also chosen by Lu Xi.
As the host, he still wants to arrange it himself. To express his sincerity.
Entering the private room, Lu Xi skillfully ordered some of the restaurant's specialties. Then he took the initiative to let Xiao Zheng arrange the next dishes.
"That's enough." Xiao Zheng is very straightforward. "I only need a plate of peanuts to drink."
Lu Xi snapped his fingers: "I don't need too many dishes. Boss Xiao is really a straightforward person. Then let's arrange it like this. "
The dishes were quickly served.
It is estimated that after Lu Xi's menu, all the chefs in the restaurant put down their other work. Concentrating on serving these three people efficiently.
The three men clinked their glasses and took a sip. Lu Xi went straight to the point without any prelude: "Boss Xiao, I am optimistic about you. I am willing to bet heavily on you. "
Huh?
Frankly speaking, Xiao Zheng was caught off guard by Lu Xi's boldness.
Lu Xi knows his words must be a bit rash. But he is not in a hurry. Instead, he put down his glass and said: "Boss Xiao, please don't be offended. My outspoken nature may make you feel a little uncomfortable."
After a slight pause, he continued: "I know that Boss Xiao and Lin Laoyao will have a fierce battle in New York. And Mr. Gandalf knows that I have no intention of going into politics. I just want to take care of my own business. Then – to be able to make friends with a business tycoon like Boss Xiao. It must be extremely crucial for me. "
"Why not choose Boss Lin?" Xiao Zheng asked word by word. His eyes are quite sharp as he stared at Lu Xi.
"Boss Lin is already old." Lu Xi bluntly said. "He is an era and is nearing its end. Why should I put a heavy reward on such a man? "
Lu Xi's view not only shocked Xiao Zheng. Even Gandalf is quite surprised.
"You trust me that much?" Xiao Zheng smiled. "If I lose. I will suffer a heavy loss. "
"If I lose, I will go into politics. If I win. I will have the opportunity to stand shoulder to shoulder with Mr. Gandalf. "Lu Xi said with a serious face. "And I can assure Boss Xiao. My joining is bound to cause a lot of people to lean towards me. Including my father, he will also stand on Boss Xiao's side. "
Xiao Zheng suddenly felt that in front of him is a completely unfamiliar world. But he turned to look at Gandalf. Only to find that the old man is also staring at him with a smile. "Boss Xiao. Don't doubt your own strength. You already have the ability to change the world. "
