Ling Qingxue widened her eyes and said, "Dad, what are you talking about? What kind of shield is this? Ruofei is my boyfriend! "
"Really?"
"Of course, he wanted to pay you a visit!" Ling Qingxue said, "Because I haven't told you about this, I asked him to wait!"
Originally, Ling Xiaotian was a little suspicious. After all, Ling Qingxue had always said that she didn't want to go on blind dates. Later on, she had no choice but to tell him that she had a boyfriend. No matter how she looked at it, it seemed like she was using him as a shield.
But now, Ling Xiaotian saw that his daughter was speaking so confidently, and his thoughts were a little shaken.
Ling Qingxue saw that Ling Xiaotian still didn't seem to believe her, and she couldn't help but say coquettishly, "Dad, why don't you trust me? Why don't I call Ruofei and ask him to come over tomorrow morning? "
Ling Xiaotian quickly said, "No, no, no, I trust you! How can I not trust my baby daughter … "
Ling Qingxue glanced at her father who had a mocking smile on his face. She pouted and said, "I think you just don't believe me. Ruofei and I even wanted to prepare a surprise meeting gift for you! Anyway, you don't trust me. I might as well call Ruofei and tell him to forget about the gift. I'll keep the Blood Red Dragon for myself … "
When Ling Xiaotian heard the words "Blood Red Dragon," she couldn't sit still. She suddenly stood up and said, "What? Blood Red Dragon? Daughter, where did you find the Blood Red Dragon? How big is it? How is its quality? "
Ling Qingxue deliberately didn't look at Ling Xiaotian and said, "Did I say the Blood Red Dragon? You heard wrong, right? "
Ling Xiaotian felt like a cat was scratching his heart. He walked in front of Ling Qingxue and said with a smile, "Qingxue, you can't just tell me half the story! You're keeping me in suspense. Aren't you trying to kill your father? Hurry up and tell me, what happened to the Blood Red Dragon? "
Only then did Ling Qingxue put on an unwilling look and said, "I didn't see it either! Ruofei called today to say that he's ready. It's a pair of Blood Red Dragons! "
"Top quality? A couple? "Ling Xiaotian asked in disbelief." Qingxue, did Xiao Xia really say that? "
Ling Qingxue nodded and said, "Yes, Ruofei won't lie to me."
Then, Ling Qingxue changed the topic and said, "But … you said that he was my shield, so let's just forget about it … he already 'blocked the arrow' for me, so how can I add a pair of high quality Blood Red Dragons? Wouldn't that be a huge loss? "
Ling Qingxue purposely emphasized the words "Premium Blood Red Dragon".
The flesh on Ling Xiaotian's face couldn't help but tremble. He hurriedly said, "Don't count it! Qingxue, when did I say that I don't believe you? My good daughter won't lie to me, right? Since you've already prepared a gift for me, then … "
At this point, Ling Xiaotian rubbed his hands and chuckled. "Then hurry up and send it over! Qingxue, let me tell you, raising a dragon is very particular. The water temperature, the pH … "
"Stop, stop! Dad, don't tell me about your fish raising techniques, I don't understand! "Ling Qingxue said hurriedly.
Then, she glanced at Ling Xiaotian and asked, "Dad, so you agree with me and Ruofei?"
Ling Xiaotian smiled and said, "This … I'll think about it again!"
"Dad …" Ling Qingxue said coquettishly.
"Choosing a son-in-law isn't like buying groceries at the market. You have to let me think about it again!" Ling Xiaotian said. "Xiao Xia and I have always had business dealings. If you suddenly change roles, you have to give me some time to adapt, right?"
"Oh …" Ling Qingxue pouted and said unhappily.
Ling Xiaotian smiled and said, "How about this! Qingxue, let Xiao Xia come over for a few days. Is that okay? "
Ling Qingxue rolled her eyes at Ling Xiaotian and said, "Okay? What do you mean okay? I think you're just thinking about that pair of premium Blood Red Dragons! "
Ling Xiaotian saw that his thoughts were exposed by his daughter. He smiled awkwardly and said, "I do miss them a little … But mainly, I still want to test my son-in-law!"
Ling Qingxue's pretty face blushed slightly, but a trace of sweetness rose in her heart. She nodded gently.
Ling Qingxue finally told her father about her relationship, and it seemed that her father didn't have any strong objections. Ling Qingxue felt a lot more relaxed.
At this time, Ling Xiaotian frowned again and said, "But Qingxue … tomorrow … Can you still go to the appointment?"
Ling Qingxue's face changed slightly. She frowned and said, "Dad!"
"Qingxue, listen to me first," Ling Xiaotian said quickly. "Don't worry, I won't force you to do anything you don't want to do. You just have to show up tomorrow. It'll be fine as long as you don't lose face."
Ling Qingxue asked confusedly, "Why? Can't we just reject them directly? "
Ling Xiaotian said, "Qingxue, as you know, the company has started to enter the hotel industry this year. A while ago, the municipal party committee re-opened the bidding for the designated reception units. Our Ling Yun Hotel also participated in the competition. Whether this bid succeeds or not is very important to the development of our company!"
Ling Qingxue said, "I know that! I also attended the regular meeting of the company's executives, but what does that have to do with tomorrow's matter? "
Ling Ji Catering had always been developing in the public catering industry. Last year, they started to try to enter the hotel industry. Their first hotel in Sanshan City, Ling Yun Hotel, was built according to the standards of a four-star hotel. All the facilities were first-class, and it was basically a five-star hotel.
The municipal party committee re-opened the bidding for the designated reception units. For Ling Ji Catering Group, who had just entered the hotel industry, it was a great opportunity to gain a foothold in the hotel industry. Ling Xiaotian naturally wouldn't let go of such a good opportunity, so he immediately organized his forces and tried his best to get a designated reception unit.
Ling Xiaotian smiled wryly and said, "This bid was led by the municipal party committee. The person in charge is Deputy Secretary-General Lin, who is also the deputy director of the municipal party committee. He is also Lin Feng's father. Yesterday, Secretary-General Lin called me and said that Lin Feng admires you very much and wants to be friends with you. At that time, I thought that Lin Feng could be considered a young and handsome man. Besides, even if you don't like him, it's not a bad thing for you to make more friends, so I agreed. "
Ling Xiaotian looked at his daughter a little embarrassedly and continued, "Yesterday, you didn't tell me that you had a boyfriend! Qingxue, if we reject him now, Secretary-General Lin will definitely hold a grudge against us. Then, our chances of winning the bid will basically be zero … So, I think that you can just go and deal with it tomorrow. As long as you don't lose face, it's fine. "
Ling Qingxue frowned slightly and said, "Dad, this kind of social event …"
"Just treat it as a normal business social event," Ling Xiaotian said. "Don't worry. In two days, I'll reply to Secretary-General Lin and say that I've asked for your opinion. For the time being, you don't want to think about personal matters. Consider it a tactful refusal! If he still has a problem with our company, then there's nothing we can do. Even if we don't win the bid, I, Ling Xiaotian, can't stoop so low as to sell my daughter! "
When Ling Qingxue heard her father's words, she couldn't bear to refuse again, so she reluctantly nodded and said, "Okay … But you must call Secretary-General Lin as soon as possible!"
Ling Xiaotian also felt relieved and hurriedly said, "Of course! Don't worry! "
After returning to her boudoir, Ling Qingxue had been thinking about whether she should tell Xia Ruofei about what happened the next day.
After thinking for a long time, she sighed softly and said to herself, "Forget it, I'd better not tell him … Anyway, I'm just going to deal with it tomorrow. Telling him will only make him more worried …"
Soon, Ling Qingxue put this matter aside and began to look forward to two days later when she brought Xia Ruofei to see her father. Naturally, her mood became better.
