Xia Ruofei was now acquainted with quite a number of cultivators and was not as ignorant as before about the cultivation world on Earth. However, he was also very clear that in terms of numbers, cultivators were just a drop in the ocean compared to ordinary people in the secular world.
When he walked in the secular world, he rarely met cultivators, let alone found cultivators among his acquaintances.
Xia Ruofei also calmly released his spiritual force to confirm and found that there was indeed a trace of spirit qi fluctuation on Lu You's body, but it was very weak. If it wasn't for his extraordinary perception and spiritual force at the Spirit Transformation Realm, he might not have noticed it.
Judging from the spirit qi fluctuation on Lu You's body, she might have just come into contact with cultivation and might not even be at the first level of the Qi Refining Realm.
But in any case, this trace of spirit qi was enough to prove that Lu You had indeed come into contact with cultivation and could be considered to have stepped onto the path of cultivation.
Xia Ruofei hadn't contacted Lu You for a year or two. He didn't know what she had experienced in the past year or why she had a connection with the cultivation world.
However, although Xia Ruofei was very curious, he still remained calm. He just smiled at Lu You and said, "It's Lu You! Long time no see! "
Lu You's eyes were a bit evasive, but she still nodded slightly and said, "Long time no see! You're also in the capital! "
Zhao Yongjun laughed and said, "Ruofei also just arrived today. We brothers are welcoming him today! I didn't expect Youyou to also return today. This is really fate! "
Lu You's pretty face was slightly hot, and Xia Ruofei was more or less unnatural.
Zhao Yongjun might not know the inside story, but how could Xia Ruofei forget the seemingly cold but passionate Miss Lu?
Lu You had never hidden her feelings for Xia Ruofei. It was Lu You who had boldly confessed to Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei had a headache at the time, but what he was worried about didn't happen. Lu You soon disappeared from his life. Today, when he heard from Zhao Yongjun and the others, Xia Ruofei knew that Lu You should have gone abroad to study.
Now that it had been so long, Xia Ruofei didn't know how Lu You was doing or what she was thinking, so he must be a bit uncomfortable.
Zhao Yongjun didn't notice and said with a smile, "Come! Youyou, sit here! We were just about to eat, and the dishes have just started to be served! You've arrived in time! "
"Thank you, Big Brother Zhao!" Lu You's words.
Today was a welcome dinner for Xia Ruofei, and Zhao Yongjun was the leader of the brothers, so he was the host. He sat on the main seat, and Xia Ruofei sat on the right side of Zhao Yongjun. Originally, Song Rui was sitting on the left side of Zhao Yongjun, but after Lu You came in, Song Rui immediately moved to the side and asked the waiter to add another chair. After all, Lu You was a guest. It was impossible to let her sit at the end.
In this way, Xia Ruofei and Lu You sat on both sides of Zhao Yongjun.
After the hot dishes were served, Zhao Yongjun picked up the wine glass and said with a smile, "Brothers, let's drink the first cup of wine together. First, it's to welcome Youyou. Second, Ruofei hasn't returned to Beijing for a long time. It's rare for everyone to get together. It's worth celebrating! Ruofei, you have a good tolerance for alcohol. Show your sincerity! "
Everyone had seen Xia Ruofei's tolerance for alcohol. It was really drinking alcohol like drinking water. No one had seen Xia Ruofei drunk before. So, Zhao Yongjun, in order to adjust the atmosphere, started to checkmate Xia Ruofei with the first cup of wine.
Xia Ruofei didn't decline. He said with a smile, "Okay! Then I'll use a big cup. "
After that, he signaled the waiter to bring a wine glass. He picked up the wine separator and poured himself a big cup of white wine.
"Refreshing!" Zhao Yongjun gave Xia Ruofei a thumbs up and said, "Come on! Let's drink the first cup! "
Everyone was using small cups to drink white wine. Xia Ruofei was the only one holding a large cup. He raised his head and drained it. Then, without changing his expression, he touched his mouth and said with a smile, "This wine is really good! It's a bit of a waste for me to drink like this. Brother Zhao, I suggest … Next, I'll use the same cup as everyone else. Let's drink! It's good to drink and be happy … "
Zhao Yongjun nodded and said, "Okay! Anyway, even if we want to get you drunk, we can't do it! It's better to save some wine! "
Zhao Yongjun's words suddenly attracted everyone's laughter. At the same time, there was a trace of helplessness in the laughter. Everyone had tried many times. They had used all kinds of shameless methods, but to get Xia Ruofei drunk, it was really impossible …
…
After three rounds of drinking, Zhao Yongjun tilted his head slightly and looked at Lu You. He smiled and asked, "Youyou, you said on the phone that you had something to discuss with me. What is it?"
Lu You looked at Xia Ruofei and hesitated for a moment. Then, she smiled and said, "When I was still abroad, I heard that there was a Taoyuan Club in Beijing. The environment was very good. Later, I asked around and found out that Brother Zhao and you opened it together. So, when I came back, I wanted to come and experience it. At the same time, I wanted to ask Brother Zhao to help me get a membership card through the back door."
Zhao Yongjun was stunned and asked subconsciously, "That's it?"
"That's it!" Lu You smiled and said, "Brother Zhao, if it's not easy, then forget it."
Zhao Yongjun looked at Lu You thoughtfully and said, "What's so difficult about this? My sister wants to get a membership card. Isn't it just a matter of a sentence? Today, the shareholders of the club are all here. Everyone won't have any objections, right? "
"How can there be any objections?" Song Rui smiled and said, "Lu You is back. We should take the initiative to send the membership card to her door!"
"Yes! This is our work not being good enough! "
…
Everyone laughed and joked. Obviously, they didn't take it seriously.
Zhao Yongjun laughed and said, "Youyou, did you see that? This is your face. I don't have such a big face! "
After that, Zhao Yongjun called the waiter over and whispered a few words to her. The waiter immediately nodded and left. Obviously, she was going to get a membership card.
Lu You smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Zhao! Thank you, everyone! Let me toast to everyone! "
After saying that, Lu You raised her wine glass. Everyone also raised their wine glasses and drank a cup together.
Zhao Yongjun drank a glass of wine quietly and then changed the topic. He didn't mention the membership card again.
However, Zhao Yongjun knew in his heart that Lu You probably didn't tell the truth.
Although the membership threshold of the Taoyuan Club wasn't low, generally speaking, one had to have a certain amount of assets. However, this wasn't a hard target. Moreover, it wasn't possible to get a membership with money. With Lu You's family background, she didn't need to come in person to get a membership card of the Taoyuan Club. She could just call Zhao Yongjun and ask for it. Zhao Yongjun would also do it quickly.
Moreover, everyone knew very well that Lu You wasn't the kind of person who liked to play. On the contrary, she was famous in the circle for being cold and indifferent. She wouldn't join in the fun. A place like the Taoyuan Club was more a place for people in the circle to communicate with each other and build relationships. How could Lu You take the initiative to ask for a membership card here?
Unless the sun came out from the west.
Zhao Yongjun had his own judgment in his heart, but he didn't say it out loud. He thought that maybe Lu You had other things, but it wasn't convenient to say it in front of so many people, so she found an excuse casually.
In fact, Xia Ruofei also saw it.
Of course, he didn't analyze it as much as Zhao Yongjun. Instead, he directly noticed that when Lu You asked for a membership card, her breath was a little chaotic. This was obviously a lie.
Although Lu You was also considered to have entered the entry level of cultivation, she was a quasi-cultivator who wasn't even at the first level of Qi Refining. In Xia Ruofei's eyes, she was actually not much different from an ordinary person. In front of Xia Ruofei, any trace of psychological fluctuation of ordinary people couldn't escape his eyes, and Lu You was no exception.
Of course, Xia Ruofei wouldn't be stupid to expose it. Since she didn't want to say it, she must have her own reasons. Xia Ruofei's EQ wasn't so low.
…
The meal lasted until nine o 'clock in the evening. Lu You, who didn't like to socialize, didn't leave early. Instead, she sat there all the time, but she spoke less, which was consistent with her usual style.
In the end, it was Xia Ruofei who suggested that everyone drink one last glass of wine and then go back to rest.
After coming out of the clubhouse's private room, Zhao Yongjun accompanied Xia Ruofei and Lu You outside. He smiled and asked, "Ruofei, are you really not going to rest in the clubhouse for the night? Your little villa will always be reserved for you! "
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "No! No! I still have some things to do tomorrow! Brother Zhao, maybe I'll go back to the three mountains directly after I finish my business. At that time, I won't necessarily say goodbye to you! "
"Okay! You do what you need to do. When you have time, don't forget to find us brothers to drink and chat! "Zhao Yongjun said straightforwardly." Then I'll arrange for the staff to drive you! "
"En! Then I'll have to trouble Brother Zhao! "Xia Ruofei said.
Although Xia Ruofei had already used his vitality to expel the wine he drank at night, even if the alcohol test showed that he wasn't drunk driving, after all, he drank a lot at night. Even if everyone knew that he had a good alcohol tolerance, he couldn't drive himself out so openly.
It was one thing to have a good alcohol tolerance, but after drinking so much wine, even if he wasn't drunk, it didn't mean that he couldn't reach the standard of drunk driving or even drunk driving.
Zhao Yongjun then said to Lu You, "Youyou, take the membership card. I won't put money in it for you. In the future, you can use this card to spend, and you can enjoy the lowest discount!"
The club was now very profitable, and the cash flow was very abundant. There was no shortage of money at all. Even if he gave Lu You an unlimited consumption card, there wouldn't be any problem.
However, Zhao Yongjun was very clear that giving Lu You a membership card wasn't a big deal. But if there were tens of thousands of yuan in the card, then the nature of the matter would change. After all, Lu You's mother, Tian Huilan, was a senior leader. This kind of thing was very taboo, and Lu You definitely couldn't accept it. So he simply gave her an empty card and didn't put a penny in it.
Lu You smiled and said, "Okay! Thank you, Brother Zhao! "
Zhao Yongjun hesitated and asked, "Sister, are you really looking for me for nothing else? If you have something to say, just say it! As long as Brother Zhao can do it, I won't hesitate! "
Lu You smiled faintly and said, "It's fine! I'm just looking for you to get the membership card! "
Originally, Zhao Yongjun thought that Lu You would stay after the dinner and talk to him alone. He didn't expect that Lu You would get up and leave directly after the meal. She was ready to leave directly, so he couldn't help but ask again.
After listening to Lu You's words, Zhao Yongjun knew that Lu You wasn't going to say anything. No matter what she planned before, she should have given up now. So he didn't ask more. After all, everyone had their own privacy. He just nodded and said, "Well! Youyou, you drank a lot tonight. I'll find a staff member to drive you back! "
"No need, Brother Zhao!" Lu You said with a smile, "I brought a driver."
"Driver?" Zhao Yongjun was stunned for a moment. He was more or less surprised.
When he came out to pick up Lu You, Lu You had already walked over from the parking place, so he didn't see Lu You's car. But generally, drivers would come to the club to have a working meal, and Lu You didn't arrange a working meal for her driver, so Zhao Yongjun preconceived that Lu You drove herself.
Lu You said with a smile, "En! The driver had already eaten before, so I asked him to wait for me in the car. "
"Oh! Okay! Then be careful on the road! "Zhao Yongjun didn't doubt her and said with a smile," Remember to send me a WeChat message when you get home. "
"Okay!" Lu You said with a smile.
At this time, everyone had walked to the door of the main building of the club. The staff member responsible for driving Xia Ruofei had already driven the Alpha commercial car to the door, so Xia Ruofei waved to everyone and said, "Brothers, then I'll leave first!"
Then, he looked at Lu You and said with a smile, "Lu You, my car is here. Then I'll leave first … If I'm still in Beijing in two days, let's find time to get together."
"En!" Lu You nodded with a smile and didn't say anything more.
In fact, Xia Ruofei had planned to go back to Sanshan with Song Wei tonight, but today, after hearing about Song Rui and Zhuo Yiyi, he was a little hesitant. He wondered if he should stay for a day or two and find a suitable time to help Song Rui.
Xia Ruofei got into the car and waved to everyone.
The Alpha commercial car slowly started and drove out of the club.
Xia Ruofei leaned against the seat and closed his eyes slightly. It seemed that he was closing his eyes to rest, but in fact, his mental strength had been silently released to explore the direction of the club. Lu You's body suddenly had a faint fluctuation of Spiritual Qi. As her friend, Xia Ruofei felt that he should find out what was going on.
Some things couldn't be asked directly, so Xia Ruofei could only explore it himself. Of course, if it really involved Lu You's privacy, he wouldn't pry into it casually.
There weren't many cars on the road in the suburbs of Beijing, and the Alpha commercial car drove steadily.
Suddenly, Xia Ruofei frowned slightly and said directly, "Brother, stop the car!"
