Chapter 387 Sooner or later
In his mind, Zhang Hongtao and Xu Mao belong to the same category. Although they can't be said to have a developed mind and simple limbs, they are definitely not very smart enough to say such classic words with his IQ.
Zhang Hongtao's words have the meaning of meeting and laughing. If Lin Xi doesn't drink the wine in the glass, he will continue to compete with the other party. If he drinks it in one gulp, it is contrary to Lin Xi's original intention.
After hesitating for a moment, Lin Xi stood up and said, "Zhang Hongtao, I agree with you. Three years of high school is just a short journey in our life. We should all look forward, but I can't drink this glass of wine. Your father toasted just now, and I only took a small sip. Now it's a little impolite to kill you!"
This is the only reason Lin Xi can think of. Unexpectedly, as soon as his words fell, Zhang Fu said, "Mr. Lin, I don't get along with the matter between you and the dog. You drink yours!"
Zhang Fu believed that Lin Xi did not want to drink to show an attitude. Now that he was a little relieved, he naturally spared no effort to support his son.
Although Zhang Hongtao didn't know Zhang Fu's idea, he immediately raised his glass and said, "Lin Xi, I'll do it first!"
After saying this, Zhang Hongtao did not give Lin Xi a chance to refuse, but raised his glass and drank it all.
Lin Xi is unwilling to drink two aspects. First, he is worried about being drunk by the people of Happy House; second, he will not let go by sending a clear signal.
Zhang Hongtao did this, which made Lin Xi a little unprepared, but he would never change his original intention because of such a small episode.
After made up his mind, Lin Xi picked up the glass and took a sip, and then said, "I can only drink so much!"
Zhang Hongtao was overjoyed when he saw Lin Xi raise his glass. After hearing this, he almost turned pale and immediately said angrily to Lin Xi, "Lin Xi, you really don't give me this face?"
If Lin Xi had apologized to Zhang Hongtao before, after all, the things between them were more like children's family, and there was no deep hatred. If the other party wanted to reconcile, he had a faint intention to refuse. Now after hearing this, he has no intention in this regard.
"Zhang Hongtao, I have already said what I should say. What do you think?" After Lin Xi said this, he no longer paid attention to Zhang Hongtao and sat down in a chair.
Although Lin Xi doesn't want to care about Zhang Hongtao, he has his own principles, not to mention that under the current situation, he is less likely to wrong himself.
Zhang Hongtao has always regarded himself as the Shaodong of Fuleju. Just now, when he spoke in front of so many department managers of Fuleju, he felt a little embarrassed. What he couldn't imagine was that Lin Xi still didn't drink the wine in the glass, which gave him a feeling of being slapped in the face in the face. How could he hold it back!
"Lin Xi, what do you mean? Don't you give this face?" Zhang Hongtao said angrily.
Lin Xi didn't want to care about him, but when he heard this questioning words, his heart suddenly came up and replied in a low voice, "Why should I give you face? Besides, this wine is in my glass. What does it have to do with you whether you drink it or not?"
Zhang Fu asked his son to toast for the purpose of testing Lin Xi, but to his surprise, his son actually argued with Lin Xi about this matter, which was the result that Zhang Fu did not want to see anyway.
Zhang Fu made a decision and shouted at Zhang Hongtao, "Zhang Hongtao, why do you talk to Mr. Lin?"
Zhang Fu was very clear about his son's nature. In order to prevent the other party from listening to him, he deliberately stood up and winced at him desperately.
Zhang Hongtao had just been disgraged by Lin Xi, and now he was scolded by his father. How could he stand it? He immediately shouted to Zhang Fu, "Mr. Lin, Mr. Lin, where did Mr. Lin come from? What is he? Why should I treat him down?"
Zhang Fu never thought that his son would say such a thing. After being stunned for a moment, he stretched out his right hand, opened his five fingers, slapped Zhang Hongtao's mouth fiercely, and scolded angrily, "Bastard, I'll let you talk nonsense, I'll slap you to death!"
There was a crisp sound in everyone's ears, and five red marks immediately appeared on Zhang Hongtao's left cheek.
"You...you hit me!" Zhang Hongtao said angrily with tears. While saying this, he stood up and ran out of the door. When he was about to go out, he took a fierce look at Lin Xi.
The people present were stunned by this sudden situation. Liu Ping recovered first and quickly stood up, called Zhang Hongtao's name, and chased out.
Zhang Fu was almost mad by his son's behavior. After taking a breath, he said to Lin Xi, "Mr. Lin, I'm really sorry. The dog is unscrupulous. Don't take him to heart. I'll take him to apologize to you!"
After hearing Zhang Fu's words, Lin Xi stood up with a wine glass with a gloomy face, touched the other party gently, and then raised his neck and drank it.
After putting the glass on the table, Lin Xi said to Zhang Fu, who was still holding the glass, "Mr. Zhang, thank you for your kindness. I've finished the wine and the dishes are full. I still have something to do, so I'll go first. Slow down!"
After Lin Xi finished saying this, he was ready to lift his feet and leave.
After seeing that Lin Xi dried the wine in the glass, Zhang Fu was wondering. After hearing this, he immediately recovered and hurriedly said to him, "Mr. Lin, please stay. I wonder if you can allow me to say two words before leaving?"
The other party said so. Of course, Lin Xi couldn't turn a deaf ear. After stopping, he said in a low voice, "Mr. Zhang has something to say. Lin is listening!"
The people present showed that Lin Xi never began to despise him. This calmness and adaptability, not to mention the teenagers in their twenties, even those old people in the mall, may not be able to achieve this level.
Zhang Fu was secretly relieved when he saw Lin Xi standing. The words he was about to say had been conceived in his mind for a long time. He wanted to say it after three rounds of wine and five flavors. Now it seems that if he doesn't say it again, there will be no chance.
Zhang Fu first smiled at Lin Xi, and then said, "Mr. Lin, to tell you the truth, I called all the department managers of Fuleju here today, just to formally apologize to you in front of everyone!"
When he said this, Zhang Fu stopped talking and glanced at Lin Xi's face intentionally or unintentionally. When he saw the two expressions looking directly at him, Zhang Fu suddenly felt a sense of uncertainty in his heart.
The reason why Lin Xi came to eat this meal today is, to some extent, because of Zhang Fu's words. Just now, when Zhang Hongtao made a scene, he had no intention of entangling with Zhang Fu anymore. He was about to leave, just to let Zhang Fu say this.
Although he couldn't see through Lin Xi's idea, Zhang Fu still bravely said, "Mr. Lin, what Zhang Fatty did before was very unauthentic. Here, I solemnly apologize to you!"
When it came to this, Zhang Fu stopped talking and bowed respectfully to Lin Xi.
Lin Xi was still indifferent to this situation. After Zhang Fu finished bowing, he said coldly, "Mr. Zhang, you don't have to be like this. Your peers are enemies, not to mention that Dongsheng and Fuleju are so close. I can understand some of your practices!"
Zhang Fu saw Lin Xi's performance, and thought of his son's action just now. He thought to himself, "This is a 20-year-old teenager. God, are you mistaken?
Zhang Fu has vaguely guessed the result of the matter at this moment, but he still has to make a final effort. This is what the old saying goes. He will not die without the Yellow River, and he will not cry without the coffin.
Zhang Fu coughed softly and continued, "Mr. Lin, I did something wrong with my fat man this time. Please raise your hand and give Fuleju a chance. As long as you can nod, no matter what conditions you put up, I will agree!"
As soon as Zhang Fu's words came out, all the people present were stunned on the spot.
Before that, although they heard that the fate of Fu Leju was pinched in Lin Xi's hands, it was one thing to hear and see it was another. Mr. Zhang has always been a very strong existence in their eyes. Unexpectedly, when he was so humble and begging for help, it really made people feel a sense of surprise.
Lin Xi noticed that Zhang Fu's face was full of sincerity when he said this. If he hadn't seen too many deceptions and dogs in his previous life, he would have believed him. But now, the more committed Zhang Fu's performance, the more determined Lin Xi was to slap him to death.
The leading boss of the magnificent Pangzhou furniture industry begged for pity in front of so many subordinates. Such humiliation will be remembered by Zhang Fu. If he is allowed to pass this time, waiting for Lin Xi and Dongsheng will be a disaster.
Lin Xi took a small step, staggered some angles with Zhang Fu, squeezed out a smile from the corners of his mouth, and said, "Mr. Zhang, I was very moved by your words, but we are talking about it. It doesn't seem interesting to say these false words, right?"
Lin Xi said that he didn't wait for Zhang Fu to answer and continued, "I hope Mr. Zhang will remember such a sentence. Sooner or later, he will return it!" Slow down, everyone. Lin has said goodbye. Goodbye!"
When Lin Xi walked to the door of the private room, he only heard a muffled sound in his ear, and then there was a pot of porridge behind him. Mr. Zhang's shouts came one after another...
