As soon as Li Dong returned to his office, Liu Qi came in and said, "General Manager Li, someone is looking for you."
"Who?"
"Miss Hu."
Li Dong was surprised, "Why is Hu Wanlin looking for me now?"
Liu Qi quickly explained, "It's Miss Hu Xiaorui."
Hearing that it was Hu Xiaorui, Li Dong suddenly remembered what Hsu Shengzhe said to him. He nodded and said, "Let her in."
As soon as Liu Qi went out, Hu Xiaorui bounced into the office.
The little lass had changed her hairstyle today. Her blonde hair was gone, and it was dyed red.
Li Dong was speechless. Seeing that Hu Xiaorui didn't talk to him after entering the office, he couldn't help but ask, "Xiaorui, why are you here?"
Only then did Hu Xiaorui look at Li Dong. She pouted and snorted without saying a word.
Li Dong felt a headache. He couldn't hit or scold this little girl. He really didn't know what to do.
Moreover, Li Dong didn't want to provoke Hu Xiaorui. She was a source of trouble. What if her grandfather came to slap him?
Seeing Hu Xiaorui looking at the cushion on the sofa, Li Dong said helplessly, "Stop looking. If you like it, you can take it away."
"I don't want to!"
Hu Xiaorui snorted and said in disgust, "You sat on it before. You might even put a stench on it. How disgusting."
Li Dong was speechless. He didn't want to be polite with her and said directly, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Hu Xiaorui threw her bag on the sofa and leaned on it leisurely. Then she murmured, "Li Dong, you stood me up last time. Don't do it again. Otherwise, I won't play with you anymore."
Li Dong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "You haven't said it yet. Can you tell me the matter first?"
As for Hu Xiaorui saying that he stood her up last time, Li Dong was too lazy to refute. He couldn't explain it to this little girl.
Originally, he thought that this little girl wouldn't come to him. It seemed that Hu Xiaorui was not as stingy as Hsu Shengzhe said.
"Oh, it seems that she didn't say."
Hu Xiaorui smiled embarrassedly and then said, "Tomorrow, we will go hiking together. I have invited you. You should come with us."
Li Dong hurriedly shook his head when he heard that it was mountain climbing. "Xiao Rui, I've been very busy recently.
Hu Xiaorui pouted and said unhappily, "I usually go to the activities that you organize. Why is it that no one is willing to go to the activities that I organize? Do you guys not like me?"
Only then did Li Dong know that it was Hu Xiaorui who organized the activities.
And it seemed that many people rejected it. Otherwise, Hu Xiaorui wouldn't say that no one was willing to go.
Li Dong scratched his head and said, "Xiaorui, I can't talk to your friends. It's boring to go. How about I organize an activity next time and invite you?"
Hu Xiaorui was still unhappy.
Li Dong said again, "How about I treat you to a meal next time?"
Hu Xiaorui pouted and waited for Li Dong to finish speaking. Then she said angrily, "I don't want to eat. Li Dong, I won't get pregnant if I go. It's boring to stay in the office all day."
Li Dong smiled bitterly. Just as he was about to speak, Hu Xiaorui continued, "Who said you can't talk to them? Aren't you familiar with Chen Rui and Treacherous Minister Xu? You can chat with them if you go."
"Chen Rui and Hsu Shengzhe are going too?"
"Yes, and Sister Lanyu, Sister Lele. Anyway, there are a lot of people …"
Li Dong was a little curious when he heard this. "Didn't you say that no one is going?"
Hu Xiaorui stuck out her tongue and said with a smile, "Anyway, they all agreed to go in the end. Li Dong, you won't refuse, right?"
Li Dong frowned slightly. He thought about it and said, "Okay, I agree. Where are we going to climb the mountain?"
"Just go to Mount Lan. Mount Lan is the closest to us. We don't have to go too far."
"Okay, tomorrow morning?"
"Seven o 'clock in the morning. Don't forget. I will wait for you at the foot of the mountain."
Seeing that Li Dong agreed, Hu Xiaorui smiled and left. She didn't stay for a moment.
Li Dong watched her skipping away. He was a little puzzled. Why does Hu Xiaorui want to organize everyone to climb the mountain?
After thinking about it, Li Dong picked up the phone and called Hsu Shengzhe.
As soon as the phone was connected, Hsu Shengzhe said, "Did Hu Xiaorui go to find you?"
"Yes, what's the matter with you?"
Hsu Shengzhe wasn't the kind of person who had nothing to do. Especially Hu Xiaorui wasn't very good. Hsu Shengzhe and Hu Xiaorui didn't have a good relationship. Li Dong was a little puzzled that Hu Xiaorui agreed to climb the mountain.
If he didn't know that Hsu Shengzhe and others were going, Li Dong wouldn't have agreed so easily.
Hsu Shengzhe didn't say much. He just said, "You will know when you get there. Anyway, it will only take one morning. Just treat it as an outing."
"I say …"
"Beep, beep, beep …"
Li Dong held the phone that was hung up. After a long time, he reacted and then scolded, "Damn! He hung up on me. This kid is looking for trouble! "
…
Sunday, March 26th.
Pingchuan at the end of March. The temperature was suitable and the weather was sunny. Doing some outdoor exercise was also good for health.
Although Li Dong was a little curious about why Hu Xiaorui organized this activity, he was too lazy to guess. Anyway, he treated it as exercise.
After changing into sportswear, wearing hiking shoes and a military knife at his waist, Li Dong went out of the house valiantly.
Zhou Haidong rushed over early. When Li Dong got in the car, Zhou Haidong said, "General Manager Li, don't you want to prepare some food?"
Li Dong said, "There is no need. How long do you think these rich second generations can climb? In an hour or so, I guarantee they will complain. "
Zhou Haidong smiled and said, "That won't be necessary. I know many rich second generations like to play some exciting activities. There are people who do wilderness survival. Their stamina is still good. At that time, General Manager Li, don't …"
In fact, Zhou Haidong wanted to tell Li Dong not to drop the ball. But he felt that it was too hurtful. So, Zhou Haidong closed his mouth.
Li Dong curled his lips and didn't answer. He was not afraid.
Although he did not exercise much in the past two years, compared to Chen Rui and Hsu Shengzhe, Li Dong felt that he could still beat them.
…
Mount Lan was not too high, but it was the highest mountain in Pingchuan.
According to the records, the highest peak of Mount Lan was 1018 meters above sea level, and the vertical height of the highest peak was about 400 meters.
Of course, 400 meters was not low. It was almost equivalent to the height of a 100-story building. If he really climbed to the top, Li Dong estimated that he would not be able to do it.
But he felt that it would be good if he could reach the mountainside. For Hu Xiaorui and the others, they would be considered good if they could climb 200 meters.
Li Dong arrived at the foot of Mount Lan not too late. He arrived at about 6: 40.
Without asking Zhou Haidong to accompany him, Li Dong told him to do whatever he wanted. He would call him when he was done.
After tidying up his clothes, Li Dong walked to the place he had agreed to meet yesterday.
Mount Lan was not a particularly famous tourist attraction. Usually, not many people came to visit. Most of them were locals of Pingchuan.
Two years ago, Mount Lan still collected entrance fees. Later on, the revenue couldn't make ends meet. So, Mount Lan Administrative District simply removed the entrance fees and opened Mount Lan to the public for free.
Walking to the previous entrance fees, Li Dong looked around but didn't see Hu Xiaorui.
He also didn't see any other acquaintances. Li Dong raised his hand and looked at the time. It was already 6: 50.
Hu Xiaorui's appointment was at 7: 00. Li Dong frowned. These people can't be so punctual, right?
After standing at the same place for four to five minutes, Li Dong took out his phone and called Hsu Shengzhe.
Hsu Shengzhe took a while to answer the phone. Once he picked up the phone, he said, "What's up? I'm in the car. I will be there in about half an hour. "
"Half an hour?"
"What's wrong?"
Li Dong's face darkened. He gritted his teeth and said, "What time did you guys meet?"
"Didn't you say 8: 00? Half an hour later, it's only about 7: 30. I purposely arrived early to avoid the traffic jam. "Hsu Shengzhe seemed to have reacted after saying that. He tried to hold back his laughter and asked," Where are you now? "
"At the foot of Mount Lan!"
Li Dong was furious. Hu Xiaorui was really the synonym of stingy.
This stinky girl invited me to climb the mountain, and she actually dared to lie about the time. I really believe in ghosts!
In fact, it was also his fault. He felt that it was unreliable. How could Hu Xiaorui and the others arrive at 7: 00?
They lived further away, and it would take at least an hour to drive, which meant that they had to get up at 5: 00. Which second generation would be so diligent?
Although Li Dong was angry, he didn't curse.
Hu Xiaorui fooled him this time. It seemed that the previous matter was over. Li Dong also didn't want to be pestered by this girl to smash cars all day.
Did she really think that smashing cars was free? Only Hu Xiaorui would think about these things all day long.
Li Dong was too lazy to talk to Hsu Shengzhe. In order to take revenge for being hung up on yesterday, he directly hung up the phone.
…
Hsu Shengzhe, who was driving, was about to tease him a little. But when he heard the busy tone on the phone, he couldn't help but laugh.
There was a young woman sitting in the front passenger seat beside him. She saw this and asked curiously, "Who called?"
Hsu Shengzhe smiled and said, "A nouveau riche. Quite petty. I will introduce him to you later. But this guy is probably depressed now. Let's drive slowly and wait for him to vent his anger before we go. "
"Okay."
The young woman nodded obediently, but her heart was filled with curiosity.
In her eyes, Hsu Shengzhe was the biggest nouveau riche in Pingchuan. To be called a nouveau riche by Hsu Shengzhe, this person was probably a real nouveau riche. The young woman really wanted to see who this person was.
…
At the foot of Mount Lan.
Li Dong saw that no one was coming and was about to go back to the car to rest.
Just as he was about to take a step, someone suddenly said, "General Manager Li?"
Li Dong turned his head and took a look. Chen Rui's white hair was particularly eye-catching. Seeing that it was Chen Rui, Li Dong immediately smiled and said, "Looks like I'm not the only one who got duped."
Chen Rui said in surprise, "What dupe?"
"It's all Hu Xiaorui's fault. She told others 8 am but told us 7 am. She made me wake up so early …"
Without waiting for Li Dong to finish, Chen Rui coughed and said, "General Manager Li, you're mistaken. Xiaorui told me it was 8 am."
Li Dong glanced at him.
Chen Rui tried hard to hold back his laughter and said, "General Manager Li, did you forget where I live? I'm used to going up the mountain to take a breath of fresh air every morning. I just happened to meet General Manager Li. "
Li Dong didn't say anything. This white ghost was even more despicable than Hu Xiaorui!
