Chapter two hundred and eighty first change
"Haha. Tong Rou, in Zhong Wei's eyes, all of us together are not as important as you. This guy typically values sex over friends." Some male classmates followed suit.
Tong Rou felt very embarrassed when he heard what he said. Jiang Yue would definitely be unhappy if she heard it here, but she couldn't say anything. After all, they were all classmates for four years in college.
"Zhong Wei, thank you for the flowers. I hope the friendship between our classmates will last forever." Tong Rou's words made Zhong Wei freeze. Tong Rou said this in front of so many people, which was a disguised rejection of herself.
Even a fool knows the purpose of holding a party, doesn't she, Tong Rou, understand? Zhong Wei's expression suddenly turned cold, but he quickly covered it up.
"Let's go, let's go to the Emperor Hall on the second floor for dinner. I have reserved a private room." After Zhong Wei finished speaking, he took everyone to the second floor.
Tong Rou knew that the Emperor's Hall generally did not receive outsiders, but she didn't know how Zhong Wei decided to do so, so she was very surprised.
Ten people came to the party today. Among the eight male classmates, there was only Tong Rou and another female classmate.
These male classmates were relatively close to Zhong Wei when they were in school. They were Zhong Wei's followers. They were usually extremely flattering to Zhong Wei.
When they entered the Imperial Hall, they were all stunned by the magnificence inside. They had never seen such a luxurious box.
"Master Zhong, the environment here is really nice. This is the most luxurious box I have ever seen." Fei said excitedly.
"Tong Rou is from Qinzhou. She knows how difficult it is to have a meal in the Emperor's Hall. If you don't have a deep relationship with the boss, you don't even want to eat in this private room if you have money. Tong Rou, am I right?"
"Zhong Wei is right, those who can dine in the Emperor's Hall must be rich or noble, and it is not easy to book this box." Tong Rou proved that Zhong Wei was not bragging, and he was really proud of being able to book the Emperor's Hall.
"Young Master Zhong, how do you know that there is such a box if you are not from Qinzhou?" Fei asked quickly.
"The owner of the Royal Hotel has known my dad for many years. It was my dad who called Uncle Xin to reserve the room."
After listening to Zhong Wei say this, Tong Rou realized that Zhong Wei and Xin Xiang still have this relationship.
Xin Xiang didn't know that Tong Rou was eating in the Emperor Hall on the second floor, and he didn't know that Tong Rou and Zhong Wei were classmates. He was not at the hotel that night and went out to do errands and hasn't come back yet.
"Everyone, please sit down, Tong Rou, sit next to me." Zhong Wei waved to Tong Rou.
Zhong Wei said that Tong Rou couldn't refuse him, so she had to sit down on the seat next to Zhong Wei. Fortunately, there were few people at the table, and they all kept a certain distance from each other.
"The starting price of the Imperial Hall is RMB 100,000. I'm treating you tonight because I haven't been together with you for a long time. I ordered the dishes according to the standard of RMB 10,000 per person, and you can drink red wine and white wine as you like." Zhong Wei said proudly.
When she was in school, Tongrou never mentioned that her family had a listed company, and no one except Xiaoxiao knew the specific situation of Tongrou's family until now.
Tong Rou is not the kind of person who likes to show off, and she doesn't like to show off her wealth. She has always believed that classmates must have pure friendship, and cannot mix interests in it, otherwise it will change the taste.
In the impression of her classmates, Tongrou's family conditions must be good, because at least she dresses better than other classmates. What's more, she is usually very nice to everyone, and occasionally invites everyone to dinner.
When the students heard that Zhong Wei had arranged such an expensive dish, they all showed excitement on their faces. When had they ever eaten such expensive dishes? So they all had a look of anticipation on their faces.
After hearing this, Tong Rou had a very calm expression on her face. She knew that Zhong Wei liked to show off, and showing off was his essence.
Zhong Wei was surprised when he saw the expression on Tong Rou's face. In his imagination, Tong Rou should be very excited. Why was she so calm?
Another female classmate who attended the party was named Xiong Yanyan. Her eyes were full of adoration for the stars. In fact, she was also very beautiful and she had been secretly in love with Zhong Wei, but she knew that Zhong Wei didn't like her at all because she was more temperamental than Tong Rou.
It is indeed much weaker.
Xiong Yanyan is full of jealousy towards Tongrou, and she feels very unbalanced. Unfortunately, she is not Zhongwei's type, and he doesn't like her.
.Although I have always wanted to stick it to him, he doesn't seem to be interested in me.
"Tong Rou, I haven't seen you in the past two years since we were separated from school. Today is a rare reunion and I want to toast you a glass of wine." Zhong Wei stood up and said to Tong Rou, picking up the wine glass.
"We are all old classmates. We don't live in the same city, so it is really not easy to meet each other. When you come to Qinzhou, I should respect you, and I will do it first to respect you."
Tong Rou drank the wine in one gulp. The white wine she drank tonight was Qijiu No. 1. Now the Imperial Hall is promoting Qijiu No. 1 to the public.
"Don't tell me that this strange wine No. 1 tastes really good. Even though it only costs a thousand yuan in a bottle, it is still a good wine." Zhong Wei was full of praise after drinking it.
When the others heard that Zhong Wei said it was a good wine, they all praised Qijiu No. 1. Tong Rou smiled and said nothing. She must be very happy when she heard everyone praise Qijiu No. 1.
So many people are drinking Qijiu No. 1 without knowing that its shareholders are sitting at the table. I wonder what their expressions would be if they found out.
"Tong Rou, what have you been doing lately?" Xiong Yanyan asked her proactively.
"Actually, I have rarely been in Qinzhou in the past two years. I have been mainly working in Dengzhou for more than a year since I returned from studying abroad. I have only returned to Qinzhou in the past few days, just in time for Zhong Wei to call me to talk about a party."
"What is your main job in Dengzhou?" Xiong Yanyan continued to ask without giving up.
"I work in a company in Dengzhou, mainly doing administrative work." Tong Rou didn't want to tell them what she really did, she wanted to push the topic aside.
"Then how much salary can you make per month now?" Xiong Yanyan continued to ask.
"It's only a little over 10,000. The consumption in Dengzhou is quite high. After excluding living expenses, I can't save much." Tong Rou was forced to have no choice but to continue to talk to her.
"In a city like that, a salary of 10,000 yuan is really not high. Now I have a salary of more than 20,000 yuan a month and I don't have any money left over for expenses." Xiong Yanyan seems to be grumbling and complaining, but in fact she is just showing off and proving herself.
The salary is twice as high as that of Tong Rou.
Tong Rou knew that Xiong Yanyan was vain, so she only said this to save herself some face.
She didn't point it out and let Xiong Yanyan show off. Neither she nor Xiaoxiao liked Xiong Yanyan, and the relationship between them was not very close when they were in school.
Zhong Wei was a little dissatisfied after hearing this. He was interested in Tong Rou's beauty, and Zhong Wei didn't mind her work.
He has plenty of money. As long as Tong Rou marries him, she can be a wealthy wife at home without her having to work at all.
"Yanyan, it's normal for our company's office staff to receive a salary of thirty to twenty thousand yuan. The senior executives I have have a minimum annual salary of five hundred thousand yuan."
Zhong Wei only said this because he wanted to give Xiong Yanyan a beating. You can slander others, but the woman you like is not something you can despise.
How could Xiong Yanyan not understand what Zhong Wei meant? She blushed and quickly stopped talking. But her heart was very unbalanced, and instead she held a grudge against Tong Rou.
"Tong Rou, you are the only one among our classmates who has never been in love in college. Mr. Zhong has always liked you the most. We have always believed that you two are a perfect match. Mr. Zhong has not found a girlfriend because he likes you.
"
Sun Fei was Zhong Wei's little follower at school, and he knew exactly what Zhong Wei meant by holding a party. At this time, he jumped out and deliberately brought up the topic. His intentions were very sinister.
"Sun Fei, what are you talking about? Zhong Wei is so outstanding and he is the young master of a listed company. How can I, Tong Rou, be worthy of him?" Tong Rou was a little unhappy after hearing this.
"You are the school beauty, Mr. Zhong is Xiaocao, you two are a perfect match." Xiong Yanyan said repeatedly from the side.
Although she was full of jealousy in her heart, she did not dare to offend Zhong Wei. Not only did she not dare to offend Zhong Wei, but she also had to flatter him. She looked very humble in front of Zhong Wei.
"How can I give you a comparison? In fact, you and Zhong Wei are the best match." Although Tong Rou was smiling, there was a hidden meaning behind her words.
"I think it's a pity that Mr. Zhong doesn't like me as a common man. Unlike you who don't eat the fireworks of the world and act like a fairy, Zhong
I just like women like you. Mr. Zhong, do you think what I said is right?"
"Yanyan is right, Tongrou has always been the girl of my dreams. Let's have another drink when we get together today." Zhong Wei raised his glass and wanted to continue to toast with Tongrou.
"Zhong Wei, I usually don't drink much, and I can't drink. So I'll tell you to do whatever you want, is that okay?"
Tong Rou knew that Zhong Wei was a very good drinker, and he would definitely not be able to bear drinking with her like this, so she didn't want to drink anymore.
"Okay, Tong Rou, you can do whatever you want with me." Zhong Wei drank the wine in the glass happily.
"Tong Rou, you know my attitude towards you. I have to finish drinking with you. Can I drink at will? This is my sincerity to you."
"Zhong Wei, these are two different things. Let's just drink and reminisce today and not talk about anything else. Don't let this affect your mood today. It's rare for everyone to get together and talk about happy things."
What Tong Rou said was tantamount to politely rejecting Zhong Wei, which made Zhong Wei very embarrassed. He did not expect that Tong Rou was not willing to fall in love with him at all, and he felt that he was very embarrassed.
"In addition, I want to tell you some good news. I am in love. My boyfriend also works in Dengzhou. He happens to be in Qinzhou today. My parents asked him to come over. He and I will get engaged in a while."
"Haha. Tongrou, you are really cute. You can actually make up such a ridiculous reason to refuse me. Do you think I will shrink from saying this?" Zhong Wei laughed a few times at that time. He didn't believe Tongrou's words at all.
Jiang Yue was eating and chatting with Tao Bin in the room upstairs. Neither of them drank. Tao Bin finished talking to Jiang Yue about some of his affairs and had a good meal. He knew that Jiang Yue might have something happen at any time, so he
Get up and say goodbye.
Jiang Yue felt bored sitting in the room. He wanted to go to the Emperor's Hall to have a look. Until now, Tong Rou hadn't called him to explain that there was nothing unexpected going on down there.
It's best if nothing happens. Jiang Yue doesn't want to get involved in these things.
Seeing that Zhong Wei didn't believe it, Tong Rou planned to call Jiang Yue to ask him to come down in order to make Zhong Wei completely give up and stop pestering her.
"Zhong Wei, what I said is true. My boyfriend lives upstairs. How about I call him and ask him to come down and give everyone a toast?"
Zhong Wei frowned when Tong Rou said this. Could it be that what she said was true? If she really had a boyfriend, he would be a bit slapped in the face this time, and the money spent was a bit unfair.
But he still refused to give up, thinking that Tong Rou might be deceiving him.
So he said to Tong Rou: "Tong Rou, since you said he was upstairs, why not let him come down and have a few drinks together?"
"In that case, I'll call him and ask him to come down. Please wait for two minutes."
After Tong Rou finished speaking, she took out her mobile phone and called Jiang Yue: "Jiang Yue, all my classmates want to meet you. They are very curious about you. I'm in the Emperor Hall on the second floor. Come down quickly."
After making the call, Tong Rou smiled and said to everyone: "He will be down in two minutes. I will introduce him to everyone later."
After Tong Rou said this, Zhong Wei's face turned green. He didn't expect that what Tong Rou said was true.
Xiong Yanyan looked gloating, she didn't want Tong Rou and Zhong Wei to become a couple.
The expression on Sun Fei's face was also very ugly. If her boyfriend really came down, what would Zhong Wei do to him?
The expressions on other faces were very exciting, because no one expected Tong Rou to do this, which made Zhong Wei unable to get off stage.
Because everyone knows the main purpose of this gathering, Zhong Wei's plan may fail.
