Chapter two hundred and seventy-eight drink another sip of wine

This noodle restaurant is hidden in the alley behind the cinema. It doesn't look like it is dewy, but the soup is good, the noodles are strong, and the prices are fair. Xiong Daini and her colleagues in the mall all like to come here to have dinner.

Chen Huai ran to the counter to order a bowl of scallion noodle soup for Xiong Daini, and waited for the soup to be made at the dining counter. Xiong Daini looked at Chen Huai and asked Chen Dan in a low voice: "Why are you and Chen Huai eating here? Why don't he negotiate with the Japanese representative in Nanyuan?"

"I don't know why he's so idle," Chen Dan said with a slight smile. "Suddenly he was nervous and said he wanted to invite me to a movie. The movie didn't start until 7:30, so we'll come here to have supper first."

Wang Cui looked back at Chen Huai, and saw that he was talking to the waiter at the counter. He was young and wearing rough work clothes, and there was some oil on his clothes. In addition to his good looks and looking like a little white-faced person, he didn't look like a very amazing big shot. I really don't understand why Xiong Daini's husband had to go to the joint venture to be the general manager. Isn't Xiong Daini's father not the deputy secretary-general of the municipal party committee? This little white-faced person is even more awesome than the deputy secretary-general of the municipal party committee?

Wang Cui was uneasy. She knew some rumors about Chen Dan that sounded less glorious, but she could never associate the man who was supposed to be bald and ugly in the rumor with the young man in front of her. However, Xiong Daini and another colleague were present, and she did not dare to rashly ask Chen Dan for confirmation.

When Xiong Daini saw that Wang Cui was Chen Dan's aunt's cousin, she didn't blame her for being embarrassed in front of Shen Huai, but she didn't want to pay much attention to her.

Chen Huai took a tray, brought a few bowls of wontons and noodle soup together, and Wang Cui stood up to help. Chen Huai vindictively asked the side to give in and said, "Don't, I can't eat soft rice, I'm not hardworking."

Wang Cui retracted her hand, and she was talking to her face, not laughing or crying; not leaving or staying.

Chen Dan pinched Chen Huai gently in the audience, not letting him talk nonsense.

Before Xiong Daini's embarrassment in front of Shen Huai had passed, she wanted to finish the noodles quickly after taking the noodle bowl, but she was so hot that she screamed, making her face blush and lost everything in front of Shen Huai.

It was still early before the movie was watched. Chen Huai and Chen Dan had originally planned to go shopping at will. After eating, they went to the mall together.

There are now two large shopping malls, cinemas and other places in Donghua City, all crowded on Nanshan Street, which is a small Donghua area, and it is also the current commercial center of Donghua City. Although Donghua's economy is underdeveloped, the urban area has so many population bases, and commercial shopping and other consumption are concentrated in such a small area as Nanshan Street to release, which also seems to be an extra prosperity. As the weekends, the shopping malls are quite crowded.

After Xiong Daini went to the state-owned Wenshan Shopping Mall after withdrawing shares from Penghai Trade, she naturally would not stand at any counter, but instead worked as the deputy section chief in the commodity department. She rested at home for a while because of her early pregnancy. Now that the fetus has stabilized and is more energetic, it is boring to rest at home, so she came to work in the mall again.

I was rushing to have a quarrel with Zhou Ming these days, and Xiong Daini was so angry that she didn't even have to rest on night shifts. However, she wouldn't be tired in the mall, and she would be more cheerful when she was with others.

Chen Huai accompanied Chen Dan to the mall, but he just took a walk around casually, without asking Xiong Daini to accompany him, nor would he let Chen Dan's cousin follow him. After wandering around, he still wanted to buy popcorn and marshmallows outside the mall to bring them to the cinema to watch the movie.

It is also the first time that the lively Hollywood commercial film "The Desperate" was introduced in China, which made people excited to watch. After leaving the cinema, Chen Dan was so excited that he asked Chen Huai to walk out with his hands and blew the cold air outside. He shrank his neck so cold that he hid behind Chen Huai, hugged his waist from behind, and smiled and asked Chen Huai to help her block the cold wind to the parking lot.

When he went down the steps, he saw his aunt's cousin Wang Cui holding a large plastic bag, standing in the cold wind, and blew it all over. Chen Dan walked over and asked in confusion: "Sister Xiao Cui, why are you here?"

"The down jacket is being sold in the mall. I looked pretty good, so I thought about adding one to my aunt. I don't know when you will watch the movie, so I'm waiting for you to take it back..." Wang Cui was steaming in her hands, and it started to cool down again at night. After nine o'clock, it was very cold outside. Wang Cui didn't know what the movie ended. She stood under the steps for more than half an hour, and her whole body was frozen. She handed over the plastic bag of the down jacket pitifully.

Chen Dan glanced at Chen Huai.

Chen Huai doesn't like snobbish people, but he also knows that "the water is clear and there is no fish, and the people are observant will not be a disciple." He knows that Chen Dan is a tolerant person, not a vengeful person. This is where he likes her, and he doesn't want to be too embarrassed. It's because Chen Dan is stuck in it and is difficult to be a human being. He said, "I'll be frozen too if I find a place to drink something."

Chen Dan went to the cafe next to it and ordered a few hot drinks to drink, asking Wang Cui to warm up. She took off her clothes, but insisted on giving the money to Wang Cui.

Although a down jacket costs only more than 100 yuan, Chen Dan knew that Wang Cui and Wang Cui’s husband who worked in the Sanyuan TV Factory in the City, this was not a small amount of money. Now, both Wenshan Shopping Mall and Sanyuan TV Factory have poor benefits and cannot even pay a basic salary. The life of urban dual-working families is no better than before.

He put Wang Cui's bicycle in the trunk and drove her back. Because the alley where Wang Cui's family lives was very narrow, it was still a bungalow area. Because Shen Huai was there, Chen Dan let Wang Cui down at the entrance of the alley and did not go in to visit her family.

After driving to Chen Huai to Wenshanyuan, Chen Dan said, "I thought you would be angry..."

"I'm so tiny in your eyes?" Chen Huai smiled, "You must know that I wanted to be a slutty guy since I was a child. I think this is a good way to make a living, just to ask your cousin to say it out by accident. However, you are not allowed to dislike me."

Chen Dan chuckled, and Chen Huai said, "Call you call and tell your family, you will stay in the hotel tonight to book your account..."

Chen Dan shook his head and said, "Don't do it."

But she couldn't help but make the decision. Chen Huai had already helped her pull out the key, carried her out of the car, carried it on her shoulders and went upstairs. Chen Dan pretended to struggle and laughed.

When I entered the room, I saw Sun Yalin sitting in the living room, holding a book in my hand, looking at them with a look of disgust: "You two are in love with each other, and you can also restrain your love, okay? You smile so happily and so lively, I wonder if there is a lonely person in the room, I feel uncomfortable when I hear it?"

"When did you have the keys in my house?" Chen Huai asked in surprise.

"If you don't give me the key, won't I make it myself?" Sun Yalin disdained Chen Huai's surprise. She closed the book and was about to go out, so it would not prevent Chen Huai and Chen Dan from getting together.

Chen Dan was embarrassed, grabbed Sun Yalin's arm and said, "Chen Huai bullies me, I'll go to sleep with you." But Chen Huai asked him to hug him from behind.

Chen Huai drove Sun Yalin out of the door, like a big bad wolf caught Little Red Riding Hood, hugged Chen Dan and walked into the bathroom. If Chen Dan really wanted to sleep with Sun Yalin, he would wear this cuckold too meaningless. He had to make it clear to Chen Dan that Sun Yalin likes women, and she couldn't accidentally send herself to the tiger's mouth...

***************

After leaving the mall, Xiong Daini walked back to the dormitory of the municipal government.

Now that she is going to work at the mall, she is rightly a good excuse to sleep at her parents' house. When she walks back to the dormitory of the municipal government, it takes only ten minutes. Xiong Daini pushed open the door and saw her father sitting there drinking alone. There was a plate of peanuts on the table. Her father was already blushing and had no intention of stopping; while her mother sat aside and posted newspaper clippings.

Bai Sumei saw that her daughter had already walked back by herself and asked, "Why did I get off work early? I'm planning to go over and pick you up?"

Xiong Daini didn't know what to say. She couldn't say that after seeing Chen Huai, she was upset and had no intention of getting off work in the office until she got off work? She said, "I was so bored at work that I left half an hour early, thinking about leaving by myself," she asked again, "Why is Dad drinking alone at home? What time is it?"

"Who knows what kind of mental illness he suddenly got?" Bai Sumei stood up and touched her eldest daughter's hand, and said, "It's so cold outside. Even if you don't let Zhou Ming pick you up, you don't blow the cold wind outside. You are young now and don't care about anything. You have never suffered. When I was pregnant with you and Dailing, how dare I blow the cold wind like this? When I blow, I'm afraid that the root of the disease will be caused, and spots will easily appear on my face. Another thing, are you okay, why are you having trouble with Zhou Ming?"

"Okay, okay, I understand; I can't listen to you in the future?" Xiong Daini said, and asked her father again, "Dad, aren't you going to negotiate with the Japanese in Nanyuan? It's so strange. I saw Chen Huai wandering on the street at night, as if you both suddenly became idle."

Xiong Wenbin looked up at his eldest daughter, and didn't know how to say some words.

As a father, he certainly hopes that his daughter can live a safe and stable life with his son-in-law and have a better future for the family. Ming cannot see Chen Huai dig a hole for Zhou Ming and ask Zhou Ming to jump in.

However, Xiong Wenbin was not allowed to admit sadly that some things were not something he could stop.

Tan Qiping had already talked directly to Yang Yuquan in the afternoon. Although Xiong Wenbin didn't know the specific content of the conversation, he could figure out that Tan Qiping's next move was to isolate Chen Huai in Tangzha District, which means that Tan Qiping would probably no longer tolerate Chen Huai's next "rule" and "disobedient".

Similarly, although Chen Huai made some concessions in the joint venture project, if the joint venture project was ruined by Zhou Ming, Chen Huai would probably use this to force Tan Qiping to palace.

In order to restrict Tan Qiping from Meigang and mixing sand in Meixi Town, Chen Huai would certainly not honestly give Zhou Ming all the resources so that he could build a joint venture project.

Just looking at everything in front of him, Xiong Wenbin didn't know what he could say, and no one would stop listening to him. Tan Qiping talked to Yang Yuquan and didn't say anything to him in advance, which shows that Tan Qiping no longer trusted him as before. It can also be said that after Liang Xiaolin and others sued, Tan Qiping was not as scrupulous as before. If it were someone else, he might have to worry about his future.

Xiong Wenbin felt extremely depressed, but he couldn't speak a word, so he had to drink another sip of wine...
