Night fell.
Beside Swan Lake.
Walking along the lakeside in the evening breeze, Li Dong grumbled, "I'm willing to bet that the Old Merchant's wife was the one who decided this."
Shen Qian, who was holding onto the railing, laughed. "What do you mean?"
"Hipster!"
Li Dong snorted. "Hipster is a disease. It needs to be treated! Why did they have to sing on a fishing boat at night? Do they think it's elegant? Bullsh * t! "
Shen Qian could not help but frown. "Don't swear. I think it's quite good. Why are you unhappy?"
Li Dong pouted. "I'm not unhappy. I'm not afraid. Old Merchant is the one who should be afraid. He's a northerner. It's hard to say if he knows how to swim. They will be eating on the boat later. If the boat capsizes, they won't be able to escape. But don't worry. I, Li Dong, have been the king of the water since I was young. If the boat capsizes, I can run away with you. Let them risk their lives. "
Before Li Dong said anything, Shen Qian had not reacted.
When he finished, Shen Qian immediately realized something was wrong.
Li Dong and Jia Wenhao, a billionaire and a provincial government official, were not small fries.
Not to mention them, even Shen Qian and Han Yu weren't nobodies.
If something were to happen in the lake, they would be in big trouble.
Eating on the boat sounded good, but it was a big security risk. The security was not easy.
Swan Lake was only an artificial lake, and the boats here were not big. Jia Wenhao had invited Li Dong to dinner because he wanted to talk to him alone. The security guards would probably not go up to the lake.
If something happened, Han Yu might not be able to bear the responsibility.
Jia Wenhao was a steady person and would not make such a decision. It seemed that it was Han Yu who made the decision.
Hearing Li Dong's words, Shen Qian quickly said, "How about we change the place when they arrive?"
Li Dong curled his lips. "No. We'll eat on the boat. Two northerners want to compete with a southerner? I'll scare them to death! "
Shen Qian was amused. Just as she was about to speak, Li Dong whispered. "They're here!"
Shen Qian raised her head to take a look. With the help of the light, she saw a small boat slowly approaching from the middle of the lake.
Jia Wenhao was standing at the bow of the ship, facing the night breeze and nodding at the two.
Seeing this, Li Dong muttered, "I take back what I just said. The Old Merchant is also a man on the outside. He's standing at the bow of the ship, preparing to act out the Titanic."
Shen Qian glared at him and said in a low voice, "Be more courteous later."
"I know, I know. Of course I'll be polite. Old Merchant is a big shot. I heard he's going to be a member soon. I can't afford to offend him. I'll worship him like an ancestor later."
Shen Qian pinched him. "Are you crazy? Jia Wenhao is Jia Wenhao, and Han Yu is Han Yu. Don't mess around."
Li Dong felt wronged. "How am I messing around? I've already said that I'll worship him like an ancestor. What else do you want me to do?"
"Don't think that I don't know what you're thinking. You worship your ancestor as a memorial tablet. Are you going to kill him?"
"Women!"
Li Dong sighed. Then, he winked and said, "You really know me well. I was just joking, and you took it seriously."
"Don't joke around. It'll be bad if someone hears it."
"I understand. I'm not stupid. I won't say it in front of him."
As the two were talking, Jia Wenhao's boat was nearing the shore.
When he nimbly jumped off the boat, Li Dong quickly laughed. "Jia Sheng, your posture just now was really cool! From afar, I saw it. Isn't that Li Bai reborn? You're like a fairy! "
Jia Wenhao suddenly laughed. "What Li Bai? You're flattering me. How can I bear the title of Poetry Immortal?"
"You can definitely bear it. With your achievements, calling you Li Bai would be an insult to you."
After Li Dong said that, Jia Wenhao quickly waved his hand.
Li Dong saw that he was being polite and laughed. "Fine. Since Jia Sheng doesn't want to be Li Bai, then you should be the Document Master. That's not a compliment."
Jia Wenhao was stunned for a moment. Shen Qian, who was beside him, also took a while to understand what Li Dong was talking about.
Who was the Document Master?
Generally speaking, it referred to the Tang Dynasty poet Zhang Jiuling.
Why did Li Dong say that Jia Wenhao didn't want to be Li Bai but Zhang Jiuling? Although there was a big difference in their fame, they were actually in different fields.
In literature, Zhang Jiuling was naturally not as famous as Li Bai.
But in ancient times, famous people were usually officials.
Li Bai's official career was not smooth, and his life was full of ups and downs.
Zhang Jiuling, on the other hand, was the Tang Dynasty's Prime Minister. For people like Jia Wenhao, if you asked him who he wanted to be more, it would be Zhang Jiuling.
Thinking about it, Zhang Jiuling was known as the first person in Lingnan.
Coincidentally, Jia Wenhao's ancestral home was also in Lingnan.
Although the Jia family was now rooted in the capital, decades ago, the Jia family was a big family in Lingnan. They only officially established themselves in the capital after the founding of the country.
Jia Wenhao was not an ignorant boor. He had a deep foundation in literature. Many people said that he was a Confucian official.
After Li Dong said that, Jia Wenhao understood what he meant.
Glancing at Li Dong, Jia Wenhao chuckled and said, "General Manager Li, don't scold me in a roundabout way. If word gets out, people will laugh at me."
Li Dong chuckled and said, "How can that be? I think it will happen sooner or later. Jia Sheng is one of the few people I admire. Who would dare to laugh at him? "
Jia Wenhao laughed for a while and did not continue the topic.
As for what Li Dong said, he would not take it seriously.
No matter how young Li Dong was, he was still a businessman, and a successful one at that. If you really listened to him, you would not even know how you died.
After a few polite words, Jia Wenhao invited the two to board the boat.
Li Dong looked around. The boat was indeed not big. Other than the cabin in the middle, there was a person steering the boat at the stern. He did not know if it was Jia Wenhao's man or someone from the park.
Li Dong did not ask in detail and went straight to the boat.
As soon as he got on the boat, a small boat not far away quickly caught up.
Jia Wenhao looked back but did not say much. Needless to say, he knew that it was Li Dong's bodyguards who caught up.
This was also normal. Although Jia Wenhao was treating, it was in the middle of the lake in the middle of the night. They had to do some preparation work.
…
When they entered the cabin, Han Yu was indeed there.
However, it was different from what Li Dong imagined. Han Yu did not go out to greet people because she was putting on airs. At this moment, Han Yu was working with a chef's hat on.
Different from the Han Yu he saw in Beijing last time, today, Han Yu looked like a housewife.
Seeing everyone come in, Han Yu smiled and said, "Find a place to sit. I will cook tonight. Don't complain that my cooking is not good."
Li Dong quickly said politely, "How can I? Miss Han is cooking personally. Even if it is poison, I can eat it with relish."
Jia Wenhao and Han Yu frowned slightly. Shen Qian pulled Li Dong and broke the silence. She smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, let me help you. I will be your assistant."
The cabin returned to its previous liveliness. Han Yu smiled and said, "That's great. Shen Qian, you help me cut the vegetables."
As the two women chatted, they quickly moved to the side and got busy.
Jia Wenhao smiled and said, "General Manager Li, there is still a while before dinner. Let's go out and get some fresh air?"
"Okay, women should be allowed to cook. We men should be responsible for eating." Li Dong laughed and made a joke.
Jia Wenhao did not say anything, but Han Yu, who was talking with Shen Qian, looked slightly stiff.
At this time, Han Yu wanted to kill this little b * stard with a spatula!
This old lady is serving you humbly and humbly, but you're really good. You've only been here for a short while, and every sentence you say is full of curses.
Li Dong didn't care whether she was angry or not. He thought he was joking.
He accompanied Jia Wenhao to the bow. Jia Wenhao handed a cigarette and said, "General Manager Li, have a cigarette?"
"Thank you."
Li Dong took the cigarette and lit it. He took a puff and then smiled. "Jia Wenhao, is this a special offer? The taste is different! "
Jia Wenhao laughed and said, "Why? General Manager Li, don't tell me you haven't smoked before?"
"Ai, I am a businessman. I don't have this cigarette."
"You!"
Jia Wenhao shook his head and stopped talking. He would not take Li Dong's words seriously.
Not to mention Li Dong's current status, it was not a problem for Li Dong to smoke a few boxes of cigarettes on Du Anmin's side.
This kid pretended to be stupid tonight, but the meaning of his words always made people think more.
Jia Wenhao was a little helpless. He took a few puffs of the cigarette and said with a faint smile, "General Manager Li, the scenery of Swan Lake at night is good. It is very different from the daytime. What do you think?"
Li Dong did not follow up with his words. He shook his head and said, "I don't pay much attention to these things. I don't come here during the day. But I know that a few years ago, this was just a dirty muddy pond. It was only after the development of the government area two years ago that it became a little more beautiful. But it is all superficial work. If you don't believe me, Jia Wenhao can take a look at the mud. It is still the mud from before. There is no change. "
Jia Wenhao frowned. He wanted to talk about reconciliation with Li Dong in a roundabout way.
What he said during the day and night was just a name. He wanted to tell Li Dong that the past was not corrected.
But now, Li Dong said that there was no change. The mud was still mud. Didn't that mean that he did not believe him at all?
Of course, he wasn't sure if that was what Li Dong meant.
But he did not believe that Li Dong was so stupid that he did not understand what he meant at all.
There was a moment of silence between the two. After a while, Li Dong continued, "Jia Wenhao, are you familiar with the Parkson Group?"
Li Dong's straightforward words made Jia Wenhao frown again.
Although this kid was young, he always did things unexpectedly.
Jia Wenhao took a breath and said softly, "I have heard a little about it."
"So Jia Wenhao does know about it. I thought it was a scam company."
Li Dong laughed and muttered, "500 million. This is really a big deal."
Jia Wenhao said with a smile, "500 million is nothing to General Manager Li. Since he is optimistic about Far Away, General Manager Li does not need to think too much."
"Well, that makes sense."
Li Dong nodded. Then, he and Jia Wenhao did not speak again until the sound of dinner came from the cabin. The two entered the cabin together.
