However, before that, he had to figure out the background of this little brat first.
Chen Zhifu was not a reckless person. He looked like a nouveau riche, but in fact, he was a very shrewd person. Otherwise, he would not have been able to run the agricultural products company so well in just a few years!
Chen Zhiye's investment was one of the reasons. There were many people who had the ability to attract investment, but not many were really successful. This proved that Chen Zhifu was a smart person.
Just like how he could quickly change his attitude after learning that the Song Jiang International Hotel was actually an affiliated company under Chen Fei. This also showed that Chen Zhifu was a person who was good at changing the rudder according to the wind.
Therefore, Chen Zhifu felt that since Yang Ming could become Chen Fei's son-in-law and get the approval of Chen Fei and Chen Fangyu, it meant that Yang Ming's family background was definitely not ordinary. At the very least, they had to be well-matched. Otherwise, with the dignity of Bureau Chief Chen Fei, it was impossible for him to let his daughter marry an ordinary boyfriend.
Because of this idea, Chen Zhifu did not act rashly and turn hostile on the spot. He had to investigate Yang Ming's background first before making a decision.
Even if they wanted to find trouble with Yang Ming, it would be Chen Zhiye and Chen Xiaolong. He did not need to be the bad guy who offended Chen Fei! Therefore, it would be better to leave the confrontation between Chen Xiaolong and Yang Ming later!
In Chen Zhifu's opinion, even if Yang Ming's family background was good, there was still a big gap compared to his nephew Chen Xiaolong. At that time, this kid would probably still withdraw in shame.
"Let's go. Let's go together!" Chen Zhifu suppressed the anger in his heart and said to Chen Fei and Chen Fangyu. He did not look at Yang Ming again.
Chen Fei also saw that Chen Zhifu was not happy, but he thought that it was because Chen Mengyan did not accept the big red packet. He could not think of other reasons, so he did not mind.
After all, ten thousand yuan for a child's meal ticket was indeed a little too much. Even though Yang Ming's refusal was a little disrespectful to Chen Mengyan, Chen Fei felt that Yang Ming did nothing wrong. If he knew that there was nearly ten thousand yuan in the red packet, he would also ask Chen Mengyan to refuse.
It was really not a good thing to accept this money. Chen Fei didn't know that Chen Zhifu was pleasing Chen Mengyan for Chen Xiaolong. He felt that Chen Zhifu was giving this money to him, so Chen Fei couldn't accept it! On the contrary, he was very glad that Yang Ming discovered this in time and stopped it. Otherwise, if he received the money and found it at home, he could neither keep it nor return it.
Chen Zhifu took two steps forward. The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. He scolded Yang Ming, this little bastard, ten thousand times in his heart. He felt that there was a nameless fire that could not be vented. It made him very unhappy, as if he was about to explode.
After taking two more steps, Chen Zhifu couldn't hold it in anymore! When had he been ordered around by a junior? He thought about it again. Although he couldn't deal with Yang Ming directly, he could take a step back and make things difficult for him in other ways.
Soon, Chen Zhifu came up with an idea in his heart. He was also the kind of person who was full of bad ideas, so he didn't have to think much. The bad idea directly came to his mind. "Right, Brother Chen Fei, this gathering is our Chen Family Village's gathering. We don't bring outsiders. This kid is not from the Chen Family Village.
Chen Zhifu thought, I can't mess with you in front of you, but I have to do something behind your back. You can be cocky in front of me. Can't I just not let you attend the banquet tonight? I don't care if you are Chen Mengyan's boyfriend. As long as you are not there, my nephew, Chen Xiaolong, will have a chance.
Chen Zhifu's words made Chen Fei suddenly stunned. Although he didn't think of the deeper meaning of Chen Zhifu's words, he probably knew that Yang Ming's previous actions must have offended Chen Zhifu. Chen Zhifu lost face. Since he was there, he couldn't scold Yang Ming. So, he thought of such a trick to make things difficult for Yang Ming.
Thinking of this, Chen Fei couldn't help but smile bitterly. He had to say, "Brother Zhifu, this Yang Ming is not an outsider. He is Mengyan's boyfriend. He spoke without thinking before. Don't lower yourself to the same level as a child."
Although Yang Ming might not be willing to attend this gathering, Chen Fei couldn't just let Yang Ming leave like this! Even if Yang Ming agreed, he couldn't face Yang Ming in the future.
"Brother Chen Fei, what are you talking about? What happened before is in the past. Why are you still mentioning him?" Chen Zhifu smiled and said, "I'm just saying what my brother meant. Zhiye specifically said before that this is an internal gathering of our Chen Family Village. There are no outsiders! Otherwise, with Zhiye's identity, maybe the mayor of Song Jiang City will come to the banquet! "
"This …" Chen Fei didn't know what to say because of Chen Zhifu's words. Although he understood in his heart that Chen Zhifu was still angry with Yang Ming because of the previous incident, Chen Fei couldn't do anything since Chen Zhifu didn't admit it. Moreover, the other party's current reason was dignified and irrefutable.
"Dad, Mom, since this is the case, then I will go back with Yang Ming first. When you are done, we will pick you up again. How about it?" Chen Mengyan was not very willing to come here. When she heard that Chen Zhifu insisted on letting Yang Ming leave, she was even more annoyed. She simply didn't want to participate and planned to leave with Yang Ming.
Chen Mengyan's words made Chen Zhifu's heart tighten and he was shocked. At this time, he couldn't let Chen Mengyan leave. It must be known that inviting Chen Mengyan to the banquet was specifically instructed by his brother, Chen Zhiye. With such a special instruction, if he, as the elder brother, didn't do it well, wouldn't it seem too incompetent?
Moreover, Chen Xiaolong would resent his uncle for not knowing how to do things! So since this was the case, then this Yang Ming would reluctantly let him attend the banquet. At that time, Chen Xiaolong would be forced to leave with shame. Why should he do this?
"Mengyan, what are you doing?" Chen Zhifu said with a smile, "I'm just joking. Since Yang Ming is your boyfriend, he is considered half a member of our Chen Family Village. In that case, let's go together. Let's go together. Haha!"
"Okay, Mengyan, you see, Uncle Zhifu is joking. Let's go!" Chen Fei quickly mediated and was relieved. Although Chen Fei was usually very dignified as the bureau chief, he was really helpless in front of these relatives. Especially since Chen Zhifu was also a capable person, it was even more difficult to say anything. Since he took the initiative to compromise, Chen Fei also went with the flow.
"Oh …" Chen Mengyan followed reluctantly. Yang Ming, who was at the side, frowned again.
Previously, he felt that Chen Zhifu seemed to have an ulterior motive for Chen Mengyan. It could be seen from the red packet incident. The scene just now was even more obvious!
After he offended Chen Zhifu, Chen Zhifu deliberately did not want him to attend the banquet. When Chen Mengyan expressed that she would not attend, Chen Zhifu immediately changed his attitude and directly compromised. What did this mean? At least it proved that Chen Zhifu wanted Chen Mengyan to attend the banquet. He even did not hesitate to let him go with her.
Although there may be an element of politeness in this, if Chen Mengyan also left, then Chen Fei might turn hostile on the spot. After all, it was barely acceptable to let Yang Ming leave because of Chen Zhiye's excuse. However, if Chen Mengyan also left, what would Chen Fei think?
Chen Fei would probably turn around and leave, right? It was fine if he did not attend this banquet.
Of course, Yang Ming keenly felt that there must be another meaning in this! Chen Zhifu is hostile to me. Is it just because I stopped him from giving the red packet? Or is there another reason?
Is it really because of Chen Xiaolong? Yang Ming was a little confused.
