Chapter 148 Zhong Ning Takes Advantage of Loans (33)
Yang Min's children are going to hold a Jiujiu banquet.
Yang Xue and Su Mingzhe both took leave and attended the wedding banquet together.
At the hotel entrance, Li Guodong's face was filled with wrinkles from smiling so much that they looked like they could have squeezed a mosquito to death.
Su Mingzhe followed Yang Xue, paid the gift money, and came to the ladies' box.
Although Yang Min's daughter was only nine days old, she looked so cute and adorable that Su Mingzhe and Yang Xue both happily held her in their arms, reluctant to let her go.
"If you like children so much, let Xiaoxue give birth to one for you."
Yang Min was happy to see her daughter being loved by her family, and couldn't help but say a few more words.
"In two years, when I graduate, we'll get married and have a baby."
Su Mingzhe really likes children. He reached out and touched the child's little face. The fur on the face felt particularly delicate.
"So do you prefer a daughter or a son?"
One question from Yang Min made Yang Xue a little nervous.
Now you can only have one child. What should Su Mingzhe do if he wants a boy but his first child is a girl?
Even if she gave birth to a boy, what should Su Mingzhe do if he wanted to have both a son and a daughter?
Is it an over-birth?
Not only Yang Xue had a headache, Su Mingzhe also had a headache about this problem.
It's just like when you were a kid and someone asked you, 'Do you like your dad more or your mom more?'
Or being asked, "Are you closer to your grandparents or grandparents?"
This kind of trap-like question torments every Chinese citizen.
If you answer seriously, you will become a fool in the eyes of adults.
Su Mingzhe's attitude towards this kind of question was to avoid it. He slipped out of the women's box and came to his seat.
Yang Linao was still sitting below Su Mingzhe. The two met frequently in the company and had long since gotten over the sense of strangeness between them. They chatted with each other about Renren and IT.
After the wedding banquet, Su Mingzhe and Yang Xue accompanied Yang's father and mother out for a stroll and some shopping.
It’s almost October, and the weather in Yanjing is cool as expected.
Yang's mother came in the summer and didn't bring any autumn clothes, so I took the opportunity to buy her some clothes.
Yang Xue originally wanted to buy some clothes for Yang's father, but Yang's father was unwilling to let his daughter spend money.
In the old man's opinion, his daughter doesn't earn money, and the money for buying clothes was given by Su Mingzhe. He is really embarrassed to ask for his daughter's things.
Yang Xue also knew how stubborn her father was, so she didn't force him and just bought a few sets of clothes for her mother.
The next day, after seeing Yang's father off on the plane, Yang Xue and Su Mingzhe returned to school.
Now Yang Xue is still very serious about studying and will not take leave if she can avoid it.
Anyway, there are only two or three months left in school.
Su Mingzhe also likes his current life very much.
He has a beautiful girlfriend, Yang Xue, at school and a charming secretary, Zhou Ke'er, at the company. If Lin Yuanxing didn't assign him work so often, his life would be even more perfect.
At the end of September, the school holidays began.
Lin Yuanxing made an excuse, saying that he was not feeling well and needed to go out of town for recuperation, and handed the company over to Su Mingzhe.
"It is said that there are many sons who betray their fathers. How come I can encounter fathers who betray their sons one after another?"
Su Mingzhe looked at the several invitations that Wang Qinqin had sent home. His plan to accompany Yang Xue to a holiday resort during the National Day holiday was suddenly ruined.
"Don't be angry. If you want to go out and play, you'll have another chance later."
Yang Xue thought Su Mingzhe was angry about the aborted travel plan, so she hugged her boyfriend's arm and shook him a few times, trying to persuade him.
In fact, she didn't really want to go out and play. Her editor told her that her novel would be on the shelves during the National Day, so it would be better to update it more often so that the data would look good.
If I go out with my boyfriend, the updates will definitely slow down.
"Ok."
Su Mingzhe accepted the comfort helplessly, and then said to the female secretary who was still cold and respectful, "I know about this. I will go back to the company tomorrow. You can accompany me then."
"Okay, boss."
Wang Qinqin was also helpless. She was on duty during the National Day, and Zhou Keer and a few girlfriends had gone out to travel. Now Su Mingzhe had to take his female secretary out to attend a banquet, so she had to accompany them.
The next day, Su Mingzhe rushed to the company and Wang Qinqin was already waiting there.
Because of the National Day, there is not much to deal with in the company.
Su Mingzhe sat on the sofa and asked Wang Qinqin to make tea for him.
It has to be said that Wang Qinqin's tea-making skills are becoming more and more perfect. She performs the processes of raising hands, pouring water, and washing tea as smoothly as flowing water.
It can be seen that Wang Qinqin must have practiced privately.
Su Mingzhe took a sip of tea and then asked the queen-like female secretary, "By the way, where are we going?"
Wang Qinqin was pouring tea for Su Mingzhe. When she heard the question, she replied calmly, "Today at noon, there is a wedding banquet for the son of a leader. The wedding banquet is held at the Dragon and Phoenix Restaurant. In the evening, President Liu invited several colleagues to Dingxiangyuan for a party."
"Besides these, is there anything else?"
After listening to this, Su Mingzhe felt that if it were just these two things, he could accept it.
"Mr. Zhang is also on duty today. If there are other matters, Mr. Zhang will handle them."
As a secretary, Wang Qinqin is very qualified and knows all the big and small matters in the company.
"That's good."
Su Mingzhe looked at his watch. It was only a little after nine o'clock. There was still more than an hour before leaving for the wedding banquet. He waved his hand and asked the female secretary to return to her post and rest.
Wang Qinqin also didn't want to stay with Su Mingzhe all the time.
Ever since Zhou Keer accompanied Su Mingzhe on a trip to Hong Kong last time, Wang Qinqin also discovered that their relationship was no longer pure.
Wang Qinqin works as a secretary only because of the high salary, but she will not sell herself for money.
Therefore, Wang Qinqin would try her best to avoid being alone with her boss. At half past ten, Wang Qinqin came to call Su Mingzhe to set off.
For a wedding banquet like this one at a leader's house, just bring some gift money.
Lin Yuanxing had already given the valuable gift privately.
"Siqi, you are here too."
Zhong Ning also came. After all, he is a relevant leader. Basically, any high-end real estate developer will receive an invitation.
"Sister Ning, please sit down first. I'll go say hello first."
Su Mingzhe was not surprised to see Zhong Ning.
Zhong Ning, the vice president of Guoning, always attends any industry-related gathering.
"Come sit next to me later. I'll save a seat for you."
Zhong Ning's intimate attitude, like that of a girl next door, made many people feel that the relationship between them was unusual.
Su Mingzhe greeted his boss and then took Wang Qinqin to sit at Zhong Ning's table.
Logically speaking, Su Mingzhe is now worth hundreds of billions, so he should have a seat at the table when attending such a party. In fact, it is not his turn.
The upper seats are basically reserved for leaders within the establishment.
For Su Mingzhe to bring Wang Qinqin to attend this kind of wedding banquet is like going to college, attending classes on time every day and listening to the teacher's call.
Even if you come, the teacher may not call your name.
However, if you didn't come and the teacher finds out, he or she will definitely deduct your impression points. If you fail the final exam, don't even think about begging for mercy.
"Siqi, are you going to the Dingxiangyuan party tonight?"
Zhong Ning looked at Su Mingzhe and nodded, a glimmer of joy flashed in her eyes, and said, "It will be over soon, you and me can go play mahjong. I haven't played mahjong with you for a long time."
"Okay, I haven't played mahjong for a long time."
Su Mingzhe didn't expect that Zhong Ning would invite him to play mahjong at this time. After thinking about it, he turned to Wang Qinqin and said, "Sister Ning and I will go to the party tonight. You can drive back to the company by yourself later."
"Okay, boss."
Wang Qinqin nodded in agreement. She didn't want to accompany Su Mingzhe to the party in the evening.
Usually at evening gatherings, there are activities that make men and women blush.
Wang Qinqin doesn't like these projects very much.
After the cocktail party, Zhong Ning happily took Su Mingzhe to play mahjong.
Play a few rounds of mahjong.
After Su Mingzhe lost a few times, he was unwilling to continue.
Although Zhong Ning hadn't made any money for a long time, he didn't let Su Mingzhe lose too much either. Feeling that it was about the same, he stopped pestering him.
The two changed their clothes and went to Dingxiangyuan to attend the party.
The purposes of these meetings held by banks are nothing more than a few things: attracting deposits, making loans, building relationships, helping those in need to build relationships, and regularly cultivating relationships.
Zhong Ning came here to ask the bank to lend money.
Guoning Group is also preparing to launch a commercial plaza project, which requires a large amount of funds, at least a loan of several billion.
The assets of Guoning Group are only about 10 billion yuan, and it has already borrowed several billion yuan.
The bank is also afraid that the Guoning Group will take too big a step and easily make trouble, so the control on lending is a bit strict.
During the evening party, President Liu was about to give the Zhong family some advice, asking them not to be so hasty in doing business. However, at the reception entrance, he saw Zhong Ning getting out of a Mercedes-Benz holding Su Mingzhe's arm.
Seeing Su Mingzhe and Zhong Ning walking towards him, talking and laughing, President Liu felt dazzled.
How did these two people get together?
Wanbao Shengtai and Guoning Group are rivals in the same industry. They were in a competitive relationship when they were fighting for some land in the past.
Su Mingzhe didn't know yet that he was taken advantage of by a woman today.
After saying hello to President Liu, Su Mingzhe and Zhong Ning entered Dingxiangyuan and greeted their colleagues who had arrived earlier.
This time, Zhong Ning wants to take advantage of the situation and get the loan.
Whether Su Mingzhe knew or not, he would not fall out with Zhong Ning over this matter.
After all, Zhong Ning didn't ask Su Mingzhe to guarantee her. At most, it would cause others to misunderstand their relationship.
After the party, Su Mingzhe had witnessed Zhong Ning's ability to socialize.
This woman is truly a natural business talent and has a thorough understanding of the ways of the world.
As the party was coming to an end, Zhong Ning apologized to Su Mingzhe, who had served as his foil for the entire night.
Su Mingzhe didn't care about it at all.
Markets are like battlefields.
Zhong Ning had paid the fee in advance, and Su Mingzhe was not the man who would deny his debt once he got up. Naturally, he would not turn against Zhong Ning over such a small matter.
Of course, if Zhong Ning asked Su Mingzhe to guarantee her, that would definitely be a different matter.
Fortunately, Zhong Ning did not bring up such a brainless thing.
After the party, Zhong Ning considerately sent Su Mingzhe home.
I attended a party today and came back late.
When Su Mingzhe returned home, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening.
"Honey, this isn't the outfit you wore when you went out, is it?"
Yang Xue sat on the sofa, her eyes full of confusion. Before her boyfriend went out, he was wearing a grey casual outfit, so why was he wearing black now?
"I was playing mahjong with some colleagues this afternoon and got all fumes from it. I changed into a new set before going to the party tonight."
Su Mingzhe had already prepared an excuse. When he told the lie, his face did not turn red or he did not breathe heavily, and he was not panicked at all.
Yang Xue was still a little unconvinced. If her relatives hadn't come unexpectedly today, she would have definitely checked to see if her man was cheating on her.
