“You’re thinking too much. Maybe she just treats me as her older brother whom she had a good relationship with when we were young.”
Feng Lianghui looked at him suspiciously. Seeing that he was not joking, he thought to himself, This brother of mine is good in every way, but he’s brainless. He’s completely block-headed.
“Alright, alright, alright, whatever you say is right. I’ve made a lot of money after graduation. My treat!”
“Then let’s go to Hilton. How about that?”
“What?! Hilton?!”
Feng Lianghui’s expression changed slightly. This was a top-notch hotel in Shanghai.
He was naturally willing to bleed for his good brother, but based on their previous exchange… he felt that his good brother had been led astray.
Lu Ming is definitely taking revenge on me for saying the wrong thing, right?
Feng Lianghui thought to himself and said in a teasing tone, “You’re making me bleed!”
“Then let me treat you.”
Lu Ming said matter-of-factly. After all, the Hilton Hotel was his property. It did not matter how much he wanted to eat.
“Are you sure?”
Feng Lianghui said in surprise. The Hilton Hotel was not cheap. As one of the top hotels in Shanghai, it was pricey. In addition, with the good service and good food, it was basically packed with guests every day, especially at night.
Lu Ming’s eyes were full of smiles. “I’m sure. When you reach there, you can order whatever you want. You can eat whatever you want to your heart’s content.”
“Of course I can eat! Ever since I went there once, I’ve been thinking about the dishes there. This time, I won’t stand on ceremony. Do you really want to treat me?”
Feng Lianghui asked uncertainly.
“Of course.”
After getting the other party’s affirmation again, Feng Lianghui realized that his good brother seemed to have changed a lot. In the past, Lu Ming was like a young kid. Now he had become more composed, as if nothing could ruffle his emotions.
It was really strange.
What did Lu Ming experience after graduation?
“Let me do it, let me do it.”
In Feng Lianghui’s memory, Lu Ming was still that poor student. How could he possibly spend money in the Hilton Hotel?
He wondered if it was because he was embarrassed that he offered to give a treat.
He decided that after dinner, he would secretly go to the front desk to foot the bill.
However… Feng Lianghui would never have imagined that the Hilton Hotel was actually Lu Ming’s property.
They arrived at the Hilton Hotel.
After the two of them stopped the car at the entrance of the hotel, Lu Ming entered in a familiar manner.
Feng Lianghui followed him closely and looked around. The last time he came over, it was to discuss business, so he did not take a good look.
Usually, he would only visit the Hilton Hotel when he was discussing a big business deal. However… he wondered why Lu Ming was so familiar with the place.
In the Hilton Hotel.
“Manager, I heard that your boss is coming over? Can you let me meet him? It’s just a few words. It won’t take long.”
As the middle-aged man in a burgundy suit spoke, he took out a thick envelope from his pocket. Needless to say, there were banknotes inside.
A woman in a business suit smiled and said, “Sorry, Hilton can’t accept anything of unknown origin, and our boss is very busy. If you really have something to say, please line up.”
There were many people who wanted to collaborate with their hotel. This person was not the boss of a famous enterprise. Moreover, he had to join the queue.
The Hilton Hotel did not lack partners.
The middle-aged man said in exasperation, “How long will I have to wait in line? Manager Gu, can’t you make an exception? Can you give me a chance?”
In order to obtain this news, he had spent a lot of money. The reason was only because he wanted to collaborate with Lu Ming first. If he did not meet Lu Ming this time, wouldn’t he lose both his money and the deal?
“Mr. Zhang, I’m not deliberately making things difficult for you. Rules are rules. If everyone is like you, wouldn’t it be a mess?”
Gu Qingxian’s smile froze.?Why is this person so difficult to deal with?
The middle-aged man retorted, “But rules are dead, and people are alive! If you’re willing to be flexible…”
“Then you can pretend I’m dead.”
“This…”
Her words left him speechless.
The silence in the hall did not last long. Gu Qingxian seemed to have seen something. Her smile was sincere as she hurried forward and said, “Mr. Lu.”
“Mr. Lu?”
Feng Lianghui looked at her in surprise. He looked at her name tag.?Wow! And she is a Deputy General Manager!
He wondered if his good friend came here so often that even the Deputy General Manager knew him.
He thought that Gu Qingxian was just being polite, but what she did next shocked him!
“Mr. Lu, I’ve already arranged the best suite for you. The dishes have all been changed to your flavor, and there are some new dishes. There are also various desserts after lunch. If you want anything else, I’ll go prepare them for you now.”
???
Isn’t this attitude a little too solicitous?
Feng Lianghui rubbed his eyes.?Very well, it’s not an illusion.
He asked suspiciously, “Are you sure you’re talking to us? Not someone else?”
Only then did Gu Qingxian notice him and say, “Yes, you’re Mr. Feng, Mr. Lu’s friend, right? You came here not long ago. We heard that you liked our hotel’s dishes, so we made the dishes you ordered previously.”
Feng Lianghui caught the main point in her words. He wondered if it was because he was Lu Ming’s friend that he could enjoy such treatment.?But isn’t my good friend a senior executive of a company?
Why would the Manager of Hilton do this for him??he thought.
Could it be that Lu Ming has another identity?!
He nudged Lu Ming with his elbow and asked carefully, “What… relationship do you have with this hotel?”
“Don’t think too much. Enjoy yourself.”
Lu Ming chuckled and said to Gu Qingxian, “Take us there.”
“Alright, please follow me.”
Just as the three of them were about to leave, the middle-aged man reacted quickly and ran over. “You must be Mr. Lu? Hello, I’m the boss of Zhiye Corporation. My surname is Zhang. Are you interested in working with us?”
Gu Qingxian was about to chase him away when Lu Ming said, “Zhiye Corporation?”
The middle-aged man was delighted. It was good that he was interested!
He quickly said, “Yes, yes, yes. Our company is quite famous in Shanghai, and we are famous for being serious and meticulous in our work. Do you want to collaborate with us?”
Lu Ming did not have the time to chat with him about this. He threw his name card to him and said, “Let’s keep in touch next time.”
“Thank you! Thank you!”
The middle-aged man held the name card like he had received a treasure and bowed several times.
If he could establish ties with Hilton, his company would definitely be able to rise in the industry quickly. He did not expect the boss here to be so easy to talk to.
He had heard from some sources that the boss’s surname was Lu, but he did not know if it was true. At first, he was afraid that he had mistaken the person for someone else, but when he saw Gu Qingxian’s attitude, he was sure that the young man was the person he was looking for.
The scene from just now was still replaying in Feng Lianghui’s mind. He said in disbelief, “Brother, what exactly are you doing now?”
Although Zhiye Corporation was not the best, it was not bad.
Now they were actually begging his good friend to cooperate. He wondered if he was dreaming.
“Just looking at documents in my office.”
Lu Ming did not intend to disclose his real job.. He patted Feng Lianghui’s shoulder and said, “No matter what, we are friends
