Volume 3 Comprehensive Film and Television Chapter 208 Dinner Conflict
Entering the restaurant, Brother Lin introduced Yuan Xudong and Guan Juer to everyone. Guan Juer's classmates took Guan Juer and Yuan Xudong to one table, and Brother Lin sat at another table. After all the people who could come were present, the restaurant waiters began to serve the food and drinks. A group of fellow villagers who worked hard in Shanghai ate and drank while chatting about the difficulties in life and work, as well as their aspirations for the future. They encouraged or flattered each other. Some of them were overjoyed and gave advice, while others sighed and accepted advice with an open mind. Life is just like this.
Sitting next to Guan Juer, looking at these masked people, Yuan Xudong leaned close to her ear and whispered:
"Don't attend such gatherings anymore. They won't do you any good. If you really have any trouble, there aren't many people here who can help you. Friends are not about quantity, but quality. Two or three are enough. If you have more, they are just bad friends and won't do you any good!"
“Hmm~~”
Nodding slightly, Guan Juer drank her orange juice while whispering to Yuan Xudong:
"So do you have many bad friends?"
“A lot!”
Yuan Xudong smiled and blew into Guan Juer's ear:
“For me, people who can help me make money are my friends, and money is friendship. I like things that can be measured, clearly marked with prices, and fair to everyone.
I remember a foreigner once said, I think he was a British man, he said there are no eternal friends, no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. For the sake of interests, friends can become enemies, and enemies can become friends.
I think what he said makes sense. I can't sacrifice my interests for others, and I don't believe others can sacrifice their interests for me. In my opinion, friends are Party A and Party B. Friendship is a contract. Two people help each other and exchange equal value. If the chips of each other are not equal, the contract will gradually become invalid and finally become a piece of waste paper. Do you think I am right?"
"Yes, everything you say is right!"
Guan Juer rolled her eyes at Yuan Xudong, hugged his arm, adjusted her glasses, pouted and said unhappily:
"Then tell me, in your eyes, how much is our relationship worth?"
"Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"
"Of course it's the truth , don't try to interrupt, just speak quickly!"
"Okay, just say it!"
Nodding slightly, Yuan Xudong looked into Guan Juer's eyes and said seriously:
"In my heart, the relationship between you and me cannot be measured by money. If I love you and you love me, it is priceless and cannot be sold at any price. If I don't love you or you don't love me, it is also priceless because no amount of money can buy it. I like money, but I have a lot of it. I like you, but you only have one. Tell me, how much money do I have to spend to buy you and make you love me forever?"
“No amount of money can buy you that!”
Guan Juer deliberately glared at Yuan Xudong, hugged his arm, leaned on his shoulder, squinted her eyes slightly, wrinkled her nose, raised a happy and sweet smile at the corner of her mouth, and said coquettishly:
"What about you? How much would it cost me to buy you and make you love me forever?"
"You want to buy me?"
“Hmm~~”
"Then you have to think clearly. Once this product is sold, it cannot be returned or exchanged. You must love him forever, rely on him, and take care of him. No matter whether he is rich or poor, healthy or sick, you must accompany him throughout his life. Otherwise, he will die very sadly. Can you do this?"
Guan Juer rolled her eyes at Yuan Xudong, pursed her lips and said softly:
"You're dreaming. I bought you because I want you to love me forever, not because I want you to love me forever. Tell me, how much do you want?"
"Sorry, the product you requested is sold out. Welcome to visit next time!"
Pinching Guan Juer's nose, Yuan Xudong leaned over to her ear and kissed her gently, then smiled:
"Guan Guan, do you still remember that day? You and Yingying were walking on the road, and I almost hit you with my car. Yingying dodged and you fell in front of my car. Your glasses were broken, your phone was broken, and the milk tea in your hand stained your new clothes. You slowly got up from the ground, looking very embarrassed, wiping your tears and pouting your lips. You looked very aggrieved and scared.
That was the first time I met you. I told myself in my heart that you were the girl I had been looking for. I wanted you to stay with me forever. It was at that time that my heart had found its home. Now, no matter how much money you give me, I can't sell myself to you because I already belong to you. If I want to redeem myself, how much money do you want?"
“I won’t sell it for any price!”
After glaring at Yuan Xudong, Guan Juer hugged his arm and said coquettishly:
"Hate it, you only know how to make me happy, your mouth is so sweet, it's like you've been smeared with honey, tell me, have you done something to offend me, and you want to please me?"
"Guan Guan is so smart!"
Touching Guan Juer's little hand, Yuan Xudong looked into her eyes and said seriously:
"Guan Guan, I'm very busy at work and I have to travel frequently, so I can't always be with you. Sometimes, when you call me, I'm not convenient to answer, and when you send me a WeChat message, I don't have time to reply. I'm very sorry for all this.
When I am with you, I want to be as nice as possible to you, and I hope you can be happy, because only when you are happy, I will be happy. I have kept these words in my heart for a long time. Today, I drank a little wine and just said them all out. Can you understand me? "
"It's okay. I know you're busy with work. It's good to have Yingying and Sister Fan accompany me while you're working outside!"
Holding Yuan Xudong's arm, Guan Juer looked into his eyes and smiled foolishly:
"Xudong, actually you just need to spend time with me when you have time. Don't think too much and don't give me so many gifts. You are already very good. People in our company gossip about me, but I don't know how much they envy me in their hearts."
After that, without waiting for Yuan Xudong to say anything, Guan Juer said in a low voice:
"In fact, I know that you are a wealthy and powerful boss, young, rich, handsome, and you treat me so well. I am just a Cinderella from an ordinary family. But reality is not a fairy tale or a novel. When talking about marriage, you still have to talk about being well-matched. It is normal for them not to be optimistic about the two of us.
Sometimes, I even waver. I know you like me, and I like you too, but I am still very worried. If one day, as they say, you abandon me, I really don’t know what to do. In fairy tales, Cinderella can become a princess, but can a princess become Cinderella? "
After Guan Juer finished speaking, Yuan Xudong looked into her eyes and smiled:
"You're done?"
"Well, that's it!"
"Okay, now that you've finished speaking, listen to me, okay?"
“Hmm~~”
Nodding slightly, Guan Juer adjusted her glasses, looked up at Yuan Xudong, and said with a sweet smile:
"Go ahead, I'm listening!"
"Okay, listen carefully and keep it in mind!"
Holding Guan Juer's hands, Yuan Xudong looked into her eyes and said seriously:
"You are my girlfriend, forever. No matter who it is, not even yourself, you can't take you away from me. I will take care of you forever, and you must let me take care of you forever. Remember?"
"Well, I remember it!"
Guan Juer nodded slightly and said with a smile:
"What if I don't love you anymore and want to leave you?"
"That's impossible?"
"What if?"
Looking around, Guan Juer's classmates and fellow villagers were all looking for someone to toast, so only Guan Juer and himself were left at the table. Yuan Xudong put his arm around Guan Juer's waist, kissed her lightly on the cheek, and said with a smile:
"If there ever comes a day when you want to leave me, and if I can't have your heart, then I'll have your body. Just like you said, I'm a rich and powerful billionaire. You can't run away in this life, or in the next life, or in the next life after that!"
"There are so many people watching, please let me go!"
"What are you afraid of? We are boyfriend and girlfriend, so it's normal for us to hug each other. Look at those two over there, they are hugging each other and drinking from the same cup of wine. The friendship between these fellow countrymen and classmates is really deep!"
Guan Juer rolled her eyes at Yuan Xudong, broke free from his embrace, and followed his line of sight to see a tall, thin senior and a petite, lovely junior hugging each other, drinking wedding wine, surrounded by a group of people shouting and cheering. Under the influence of alcohol, their faces flushed and looked somewhat unruly and distorted. Seeing this, Guan Juer frowned slightly and said:
"I know that schoolgirl. Her boyfriend is not here. How could she do this?"
"It's just half-hearted. Some girls are more open than boys. With so many people cheering them on, and having drunk a little, they are willing to indulge themselves. Their boyfriends are not around, so they can have fun however they want, right?"
Looking at the two people hugging each other, the man seemed to be advising others not to make trouble , but he held the woman without hesitation. The woman seemed to resist and embarrassed, but her body was obediently pressed against the man. The pure friendship between men and women was even more intimate than that between brothers and sisters. Seeing this, Yuan Xudong looked at Guan Juer and smiled:
"I never believe that there can be pure friendship between men and women. Even siblings know to keep their distance, let alone friends and fellow villagers. The man took the opportunity to take advantage of her, and the woman is not a self-disciplined person either. The two are the same, and it's just right for them to play games together."
Guan Juer rolled her eyes at Yuan Xudong and said with a smile:
"Have you ever played a game like this?"
"No, I really don't. I never attend any class reunions or hometown gatherings. At most, I attend some business evening parties. Those celebrities are more careful about their reputation. It doesn't matter how much fun they have in private, but they still follow the rules in public!"
"Yeah?"
Glancing at Yuan Xudong, Guan Juer squinted her eyes and smiled:
"What about you, how are you doing in private?"
"Me?"
With a wicked smile on his lips, Yuan Xudong looked at Guan Juer and said with a smile:
"You'll find out tonight how I am in private. By the way, is the hotel room you booked a king-size bed room?"
"Pooh~~"
Guan Juer spat lightly, rolled her eyes at Yuan Xudong, and said with a blushing face:
"You rascal, you have no shame!"
"I am a hooligan and I have no shame?"
Rolling his eyes, Yuan Xudong looked at the embarrassed Guan Juer and teased:
"You are the one who booked the hotel room. I haven't even told you yet..."
Before he finished speaking, a cell phone rang. It was Yuan Xudong's phone. He picked up the phone from the table and took a look. The caller ID was Zhou Gege. Thinking of the agreement with Zhou Gege, Yuan Xudong looked at Guan Juer and smiled:
"Guan Guan, I'm going to take a call and will be back soon!"
"Well, hurry up, I'll wait for you!"
"Okay, I'm just going to the bathroom, I'll be back in a few minutes!"
“Hmm~~”
After leaving the dining area, Yuan Xudong walked into the bathroom, answered the phone and smiled:
"Gege, it's so late, what can I do for you?"
After a short silence, Zhou Gege's hesitant voice came from the other side:
"Mr. Yuan, tonight, do you... do you have time?"
"Yes, what can I do for you?"
"My mother asked me to go back and stay for two days. I'm in your house now. Can you come and pick me up?"
"I drank a little tonight and can't drive. How about tomorrow? I'll take you shopping and then send you home, okay?"
"Okay, thank you Mr. Yuan, good night!"
"Good night!"
After hanging up the phone, Yuan Xudong smiled. Zhou Gege likes to drive a Ferrari sports car worth millions, and he likes to drive his young and beautiful girlfriend's car. The two of them exchanged equally and each got what they needed. Zhou Gege satisfied his collection hobby, and Yuan Xudong satisfied her material pursuit. It was simply the best of both worlds and a win-win cooperation!
After putting away his phone, he walked back to the restaurant and saw a group of people surrounding Guan Juer and making a lot of noise. Yuan Xudong walked over with a frown on his face. The tall and thin senior student handed a large glass of white wine to Guan Juer and said jokingly:
"Junior sister, come and have a drink with me!"
"Brother, I don't drink alcohol and have never drunk white wine. Thank you!"
"Nowadays, everyone drinks at work. Besides, if you don't know how to drink, you can learn . Come, let me teach you how to drink!"
Seeing Guan Juer refusing and refusing to accept the senior's drink, her friends on the side started to make a fuss:
"Xiao Guan, are you not giving face to my senior brother? How about this, you drink less. I drink one cup and you drink half a cup?"
"I really can't drink, Senior Brother, can I give you a glass of juice?"
"Junior sister, I'll drink first as a sign of respect. If you don't drink, then you're not giving me face. I'll drink, and you can do whatever you want!"
After that, without waiting for Guan Juer to say anything, the tall and thin senior student wearing a baseball cap drank the white wine in his hand, then forced another glass of white wine to Guan Juer and said with a smile:
"Junior sister, my senior brother has already done it, you won't be so disrespectful, right?"
"Brother, I..."
Before Guan Juer could finish, Senior Brother Lin at the side snatched the white wine from the tall and thin senior and said with a smile:
"Xiao Guan can't drink, I'll help her drink it!"
After that, Senior Brother Lin drank the white wine in his hand. His friends on the side shouted "hero save the beauty" and encouraged the tall and thin senior. They felt that Senior Brother Lin and Guan Juer had offended them. The tall and thin senior threw away his cap, looked at Senior Brother Lin fiercely and smiled:
"Want to be a hero and save the damsel in distress? Come on, guys, take Xiaolin to the back. We won't be home until we're drunk tonight!"
After that, he waited for Senior Brother Lin to be dragged away by the booing crowd. He poured another glass of white wine and forced it into Guan Juer's mouth, smiling:
"Junior sister, the last cup doesn't count. How about you drink this cup to give me some face?"
He walked behind Guan Juer and took the liquor from the thin and tall senior. Before Yuan Xudong could say anything, the thin and tall senior looked up at Yuan Xudong and said fiercely:
"What are you doing?"
Seeing the tall and thin senior's arrogant attitude, Yuan Xudong, who had originally intended to keep things quiet, smiled slightly. He poured the liquor in his hand into the other party's eyes and scolded:
"Who do you think you are to look at me like that?"
"ah!"
With a scream, the tall and thin senior covered his eyes and took a few steps back. The people around him woke up from the paralysis of alcohol. Some people pulled the tall and thin senior who wanted to hit Yuan Xudong to wash his eyes, and some people hid nearby to watch the fun. Senior Brother Lin and a few others stopped a few fellow villagers who wanted to settle accounts with Yuan Xudong, and looked at Yuan Xudong and Guan Juer and said:
"Xiao Guan, take Mr. Yuan back first, and let me handle the things here!"
"Okay, thank you, Brother Lin!"
After saying thank you, Guan Juer hurriedly pulled Yuan Xudong to leave the restaurant and said:
"Xudong, let's go back first. Let Senior Brother Lin handle the things here!"
"good!"
Nodding slightly, Yuan Xudong followed Guan Juer out of the restaurant, leaving a business card for Senior Brother Lin and saying:
"Brother Lin, this is my business card. If he is blind, he is welcome to come to the company to find me. Also, Guan Guan will not come to such gatherings in the future. There is a good bar nearby. If you don’t have enough fun, you can go there and give me a bill later. Guan Guan and I will go back first. See you again if we are lucky enough!"
Following Guan Juer out of the restaurant, seeing that she looked unhappy, Yuan Xudong put his arm around her waist and said with a smile:
"What's wrong with you? Are you upset because I hurt your senior?"
"Where is that?"
Guan Juer rolled her eyes at Yuan Xudong, patted him twice and said angrily:
"If you pour wine into someone's eyes, what if he goes blind?"
"It was an accident!"
Yuan Xudong shrugged and said:
"I poured wine on his face and accidentally splashed his eyes. Blindness is only a small probability event. Even if he really went blind, it was just an accident. Do you understand?"
"not understand!"
After glaring at Yuan Xudong, Guan Juer pouted and said unhappily:
"Don't do such dangerous things in the future. Whether you hurt others or others hurt you, I won't allow it. Do you understand?"
"Got it, my dear wife, please calm down. I will definitely bring bodyguards with me next time. If there is anything bad to do, just let them do it. Okay?"
"That won't work either, you can't bully others!"
"Okay, I can't bully others, so I'll bully you!"
After saying that, Yuan Xudong pretended to hit Guan Juer on the head, but Guan Juer quickly dodged and ran ahead, laughing:
"Haha, you can't hit me, come and chase me!"
"I am coming!"
