Chapter 466 Parents' Meeting: Overt and Covert
Pei Rou's meaning was very clear. My Xing Ruo and your Liang Fei were in love with each other. The young people must be in love. There would be no problem on our side. It depends on you.
Liang Fei looked at Xu Ruting and smiled innocently, as if the matter had nothing to do with him.
Xu Ruting picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Pei Rou, then drank it all in one gulp. She gently put the glass down, looked at Pei Rou and Ding Dehong with a smile, and spoke slowly.
"Hey, Mr. Pei, Lao Ding, our Liang Fei has been a good student since he was young. His father and I never had to worry about him. He was admitted to Minghai University smoothly. He started his own business while in school. He never asked me and his father for a penny. It was only when he had a conflict with a copycat phone manufacturer and wanted to sue him that he asked us for some legal fees."
After a pause, Xu Ruting looked at her son with a smile: "So, our Liang Fei is really excellent."
Pei Rou still had a smile on her face, wondering what this meant. Everyone knew that Liang Fei was very outstanding. Not to mention her peers, she had almost surpassed 99 percent of the people in this society.
What is Hsu Ruting trying to do by boasting so much on this occasion? Is it to establish authority for Li Xingruo?
Then, Xu Ruting said to Pei Rou and Ding Dehong: "So when it comes to the child's feelings, his father and I have only one principle, which is to respect him completely, and never interfere, absolutely support, and absolutely cooperate."
When Pei Rou heard this, her smile deepened. So this is what he meant.
Xu Ruting and Pei Rou smiled at each other, then looked at Liang Fei, thinking, you kid cheats on your mother every day, just want me to take the blame for you, right? Fine, I won't do it anymore. Anyway, I've said it, your business has nothing to do with us, we won't give you any advice, you did it all by yourself.
Seeing that the two women had almost finished their negotiation, Ding Dehong raised his glass to Xu Ruting with a smile, and said in a gentle tone: "Pei Rou and I have the same idea as you, Ruting. Anyway, as long as the child likes her, it doesn't matter how big her career is as long as she is a good person. It is also a rare happiness for two people to live an ordinary life and support each other."
Pei Rou commented: "Xiao Liang is a very nice person."
Xu Ruting blinked and thought to herself, Director Pei, are you serious? You are such a high-ranking leader, how can you not tell the good from the bad?
I have no fucking choice, can you please tell right from wrong?
Pei Rou took the initiative to pick up a piece of food for Liang Fei and said to Xu Ruting, "Ruting, it is extremely rare for a child like Xiao Liang to have such achievements at his age, but he is not satisfied with money alone. Instead, he has found another way to help many poor areas produce and sell stranded crops and specialties. Now his poverty alleviation project on the live broadcast platform has won national recognition."
"This is true, Ru Ting. Many people's family financial conditions have been greatly improved because of Liang Fei. For this alone, Liang Fei has done a great deed."
Liang Fei said modestly: "There is still a lot I need to do, and there are still many people who need to be taken care of."
As he said this, he held Li Xingruo's hand in front of the elders.
Li Xingruo shrank her shoulders but did not refuse. Instead, she turned her hand over and pressed her palm against Liang Fei's hand, with their fingers interlocked.
Of course, Xu Ruting would not ruin her son's career at this time. And to be honest, she had heard about the good things Liang Fei had done. Speaking objectively, Xu Ruting was very proud of her son.
Ding Dehong concluded with a smile: "So from our perspective as elders, we just hope that these two children can cherish this fate, live in harmony, and achieve positive results as soon as possible."
Pei Rou immediately picked up the wine glass and said, "Then I wish these two children good luck and may all their wishes come true."
The four wine glasses clinked lightly together. Li Xingruo, who didn't drink much, drank all the wine in his glass. He lowered his head and exhaled. His delicate facial features were troubled for a moment, and he quickly unscrewed the bottle of mineral water and took a sip.
Seeing this, Pei Rou suddenly said, "Xingruo, you toast Aunt Xu alone."
Toasting is secondary. Pei Rou hopes that Li Xingruo can leave a good impression on Xu Ruting and show herself instead of always hiding her shortcomings.
I heard that the daughter of the boss of Nian Jewelry is not only extremely beautiful, but also very sophisticated in her speech and actions, and is very much loved by the elders.
Although Pei Rou had never seen rice cakes before, she didn't want Li Xingruo to be outdone.
Elders like Pei Rou and Ding Dehong definitely think that their own children are the best. No matter how beautiful or outstanding other people's children are, they are still other people's children.
After hearing this, Li Xingruo immediately poured another glass of wine, stood up, held the glass with both hands, and said seriously: "Auntie, I wish you eternal youth and happiness every day. Liang Fei can make you happy every day, and I, I can make you happy too."
As he said this, he raised his head and drank the wine in the glass.
Such silly and cute words made the parents burst into laughter. Pei Rou was very happy and felt that no fancy words could compare to Li Xingruo's pure blessing that came from the heart.
Thinking of this, Pei Rou subconsciously observed Xu Ruting's expression.
Xu Ruting blinked, a hint of surprise showing on her face, her eyes shining, not only was she very happy, but also there was a kind of joy as if she had discovered a treasure.
Liang Fei looked at his mother. He was very familiar with this expression. Every time Xu Ruting met a girl she liked, she would have this expression.
Xu Ruting was like this when she first met Nian Gao and Xiao Yuyi.
My mother doesn't have any principles...
After receiving Li Xingruo's toast, Xu Ruting of course had to express her gratitude. She took out the gift she had prepared long ago from her bag and said with a smile: "Xingruo, this is a little gift from your auntie. I hope you like it."
"Thank you, Auntie."
Li Xingruo took the gift with both hands, and Liang Fei said, "Open it and see what good stuff it is."
"good."
Li Xingruo responded, untied the ribbon, opened the box, and found a pair of exquisite glasses.
Pei Rou saw this and looked at Xu Ruting with great satisfaction: "Ruting, you really have a heart."
Xu Ruting smiled and shook her head: "I have heard about it a long time ago. Our Xingruo is a well-known programmer who has helped Liang Fei a lot. Even now, she often works overtime. Although she is not nearsighted, her eyes must be tired from looking at the computer too much. This pair of glasses is made of light material and will not hurt the bridge of the nose. Our Xingruo's nose is really beautiful, so don't let it collapse."
Li Xingruo carefully put away the glasses. It was obvious that she was very touched. She said to Xu Ruting with an extremely sincere tone: "Thank you, Auntie. I will keep them for the rest of my life."
Xu Ruting waved her hands and said, " Don't keep it. Use it first. If it breaks, I'll buy you another one."
"good!"
Pei Rou and Ding Dehong looked at each other and felt relieved.
At least Hsu Ruting is a very good elder, and considerate and attentive. She did not buy Li Xingruo any fancy necklaces or bracelets, but instead prepared a pair of very practical and thoughtful glasses. What is this called? This is called being practical.
Liang Fei looked at the pair of glasses, then looked at her mother, and was also full of admiration.
If a girl wears a new gorgeous necklace, bracelet or other accessories, there will definitely be people who are curious and ask, "Hey, how much is this? Who gave it to you? Did you buy it yourself?"
But who would ask about a pair of glasses?
This is called details.
Ding Dehong and Pei Rou definitely couldn't be asked to pay for this meal. Liang Fei had this in mind, so she took the time to pay the bill while going to the bathroom.
Unexpectedly, I ran into Li Xingruo at the counter.
Li Jiang has already put on the pair of glasses that Xu Ruting gave her, and is looking at the bill while holding her bank card . People who have experienced hardship and poverty and have turned their lives around with their own abilities will never waste a penny, and checking the bill is their simplest instinct.
After looking at the bill, Li Xingruo handed the bank card to the waiter and immediately noticed Liang Fei standing beside him.
Liang Fei scratched the tip of Li Xingruo's nose and said with a smile, "Team Leader Li, I'm sorry to have cost you money."
“It should be.”
Li Xingruo took the bank card back from the waiter and was about to walk back when he suddenly said, "Liang Fei, I met Nian Huaishi at that Federation of Industry and Commerce party."
Liang Fei knew about this, of course. She stopped and turned to look at Li Jiang: "And then?"
"She is really a very free and excellent girl."
Li Jiang looked at Liang Fei and said, "So I think there's no point in hiding it. Since I like you and she likes you too, we might as well meet more often. Whoever admits defeat will quit."
Liang Fei didn't believe that Li Xingruo could come up with this. Sure enough, Li Jiang's tone, which had just hardened, softened instantly. He touched his index fingers together and whispered, "This is what Teacher Pei meant. I, I'm actually quite scared."
Liang Fei couldn't help laughing, walked up to Li Xingruo, hugged her, pinched her chin and said, "What are you afraid of?"
Li Xingruo pursed her lips: "I don't know what I'm afraid of."
It can be said that the meal was quite enjoyable. At least Pei Rou and Ding Dehong spoke very highly of Xu Ruting. They also agreed that the two families would have a formal meeting when Liang Chuifeng came to Minghai.
Liang Fei suddenly felt that this New Year would not be easy.
When the two returned to the round table, Pei Rou and Xu Ruting were chatting animatedly. Pei Rou's alcohol tolerance was not very good, and of course she was no match for Xu Ruting.
Human beings, once they let down their guard, will speak from the bottom of their hearts one after another. Although Pei Rou usually behaves in a reserved manner, it is because her job requires it. There is no other way. When she is in a position like her, she must have the necessary aura and depth.
"We and Xingruo are in the same boat, so we try our best to protect her within a certain range, but we dare not cross the line. Xingruo is the same, she doesn't want to cause us trouble or worry us... Ruting, I really hope Xingruo can be happy, and I also wish Liang Fei the best."
Before leaving the restaurant, Liang Fei held Li Xingruo's hand and said to Xu Ruting: "Mom, you go back first, I and..."
"Come here." Xu Ruting interrupted Liang Fei directly without giving him any chance.
Pei Rou also smiled and carried Li Xingruo to Ding Dehong's side. She didn't look at Liang Fei, but said goodbye to Xu Ruting contentedly: "That's it for today, Ruting. We'll see you when Old Liang comes."
Looking at Li Jiang being taken away, Liang Fei put his hands in his pockets, kicked the small stones at his feet, and rolled his eyes: "What are you doing?"
"What are you doing? You want to take someone's daughter away in front of her parents. What are you thinking?" Xu Ruting was so disappointed that she put the bag on her shoulder and said, "Go home."
Just go back.
Lightyear Technology
Liang Fei entertained a guest who came from afar today, a short and stocky little fat man who looked very honest. His name was Wang Xing.
The one who plays Meituan.
He came mainly to ask Liang Fei to borrow money. Borrowing money is another way of saying it. It would be even better if he didn't have to pay it back. Not paying it back means that Liang Fei would have to invest.
The Internet is all about mutual investment. If you want to expand your business, you must own dozens of companies and have shares in dozens of companies.
In the office
Wang Xing looked at the handsome Liang Fei and shook his head: "Boss Liang, to be honest, I came here for two reasons today. One is to discuss cooperation with you, and the other is that my wife wants your autograph."
Wang Xing’s wife Guo Wanhuai is also a very capable woman. When Wang Xing was starting Xiaonei.com, Guo Wanhuai joined him. Then there was Fanfou.com, and now Meituan.com.
Liang Fei was drinking tea and was not surprised by this request. It was not the first time after all.
When Liang Fei was not well-known, whenever she went out, some rich lady or some notorious woman would come up to her, and some would even directly threaten to spend a lot of money to keep Liang Fei.
Smilingly signing her name on her photo, Liang Fei believed that Ms. Guo definitely wanted more than just her autograph. This was clearly a gesture of goodwill to gain more favors for her husband's investment.
Putting the signature back into the briefcase, Wang Xing sighed and said, "Now you know why we don't want to bring our wives to many gatherings. As soon as they see you, they keep nagging you, saying that you are in the Internet industry, why Liang Fei is so handsome and has so much hair..."
God damn, it’s because I don’t want to bring my wife. Check your conscience, brothers, why don’t you bring your wives?
Liang Fei looked at Wang Xing's bald forehead and comforted him, "It's okay, Mr. Wang. Mr. Zhang from Penguin just has long hair. Even after cutting his hair, he doesn't have more hair than you."
Wang Xing: “…”
"Mr. Liang, let's talk business."
“No money.”
“…”
Liang Fei laughed and waved his hands: "I'm just kidding, Mr. Wang, I know you are preparing for a rainy day. The takeaway business has just been launched, so you must spend money. You must let users have a few free takeaway meals to gain market share. I understand this principle."
Wang Xing nodded: "From Xiaonei.com, to Fanfou, and now to Meituan, I will definitely take over the food delivery market. I have discussed all aspects. This business has been developed. In just a few years, this business can provide countless jobs for the society."
Liang Fei fully agreed with this and said: "While providing jobs, I personally think that we should also provide corresponding guarantees. Of course, this needs to be done step by step and gradually improved."
Wang Xing thought for a moment and said, "I know what you mean. Like JD.com's Mr. Liu, you should provide social security for couriers, right? Actually, this is quite difficult."
"This thing is too far away, let's not talk about it for now."
Liang Fei waved her hand and asked, "How much does Mr. Wang want me to pay?"
Wang Xing said bluntly: "I know that Mr. Liang's funds are now flowing into new energy, and Silicon Valley is also very expensive, not to mention that in two years, you are making a big move, so, 100 million."
Liang Fei: “…”
Did he have any misunderstanding about my financial resources?
