Chapter 667 Confirmation
"You are Cheng Yan's friend, Du Cheng, right?"
Fang Qinzhong stretched out his hand towards Du Cheng, with a friendly smile on his face, the previous anger completely disappeared.
The other party's performance was indeed very enthusiastic. The friendly smile and the identity of the deputy mayor easily made people feel humiliated. Of course, this is only compared to ordinary people. For Du Cheng Well, Fang Qinzhong's performance didn't have the slightest influence on him at all.
The reason is very simple, because even in front of the prime minister, he is calm and at ease. In front of this Fang Qinzhong, it is naturally impossible to have other strange emotions.
He stretched out his hand, and after briefly shaking hands with the other party, Du Cheng responded with a smile: "Yes, Mayor Fang, hello."
If someone else said that, Fang Qinzhong would naturally accept it calmly, but if Du Cheng was Brother Du, it would be different, so Fang Qinzhong pointed to Cheng Yan and said: "What is the mayor or not the mayor?" , if you don't mind, just like Xiaoyan, call me uncle."
"Uncle." Du Cheng was fine, because the other party was indeed Cheng Yan's uncle, and with his relationship with Cheng Yan, it was normal for him to shout that.
Seeing Fang Qinzhong finished greeting Du Cheng, Wang Qiuying also extended her hand to Du Cheng, and said to Du Cheng with a smile: "Du Cheng, I don't think I need to introduce you."
After all, Wang Qiuying is a person in the officialdom, so she naturally knows how to hide her thoughts in her heart, and even more understands this moment and that moment. Her attitude at this moment is very different from yesterday. People who don't know the inside story think that Wang Qiuying How familiar Qiuying and Du Cheng are.
"No need, aunt." Now that he called that Fang Qinzhong's uncle, Du Cheng naturally wouldn't be stingy about calling aunt, and he called it very simply.
Hearing Du Cheng politely call her aunt, Wang Qiuying's gaze immediately turned to Fang Qinzhong, and they exchanged a glance with Fang Qinzhong, and there was a bit of joy on their faces.
Of course, this joy was only fleeting. Fang Qinzhong immediately waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's go in first. If there is anything, we will talk about it inside."
After speaking, Fang Qinzhong led Du Cheng and his party up to the second floor of Jinyan Mansion.
Fang Qinzhong booked one of the three best boxes in Jinyan Mansion, which shows how much he attaches importance to this banquet.
This Golden Banquet Mansion is worthy of being a high-standard restaurant built in imitation of Huayan Mansion. The decoration is luxurious, and the quality of the waiters is very, very high. Just sitting in it, you will have a kind of noble enjoyment like a VIP.
As soon as the group of people sat down, the Jinyan Mansion had already started serving food.
In this regard, Jinyan Mansion and Huayan Mansion are also very similar. Unless there is a special need, generally there is no need to order food here. Naturally, there are specially prepared sets of various specifications for entertainment.
These set meals are very delicate delicacies, and they are all refined by experienced senior chefs. Even the chefs of five-star hotels are inferior in this respect.
Before coming here, Fang Qinzhong had already asked the Jinyan Mansion to start preparations, and when this time arrived, the Jinyan Mansion had just completed the preparations.
After several dishes were served, Fang Qinzhong asked the waiter to slow down the serving speed, while he himself poured a white cup for Du Cheng and Cheng Yan, and raised the cup towards Du Cheng and Cheng Yan. Cheng Yan said: "Xiaoyan, Du Cheng, let me toast to you first. I will formally apologize to you on Xiaoyi's behalf for what happened last night."
Du Cheng and Cheng Yan stood up, Fang Qinzhong had already said that, the two of them couldn't say anything more, Du Cheng and Fang Qinzhong had a drink, and Cheng Yan drank along with it, after all, the alcohol was not low, It is still difficult for her.
After sitting down, Fang Qinzhong turned the matter to the main topic. After a pause, he asked Du Cheng directly: "Du Cheng, I heard from Xiaoyi that Peng Quan and Qin Longfei were also present last night, are they right? ?”
Just hearing what Fang Qinzhong said, Du Cheng explained what Fang Qinzhong meant, and knew that his guess was correct.
"Um."
To this, Du Cheng only responded lightly, because he knew that Fang Qinzhong would definitely ask again.
Sure enough, just as Du Cheng guessed, Fang Qinzhong quickly asked tentatively: "Du Cheng, I heard from Xiaoyi that you and Peng Quan seem to call you Brother Du, right?"
As soon as Fang Qinzhong said it, almost everyone's eyes turned to him and Du Cheng.
Cheng Yan was a little surprised by the title, because he didn't know what the word Du Ge meant, while Wang Qiuying and Fang Xiaoyi looked at Du Cheng nervously, obviously waiting for Du Cheng's answer.
However, Du Cheng didn't answer, because at this moment, several people suddenly came in at the door of the box.
"Mayor Fang, you don't need to ask. If you can get me, Qin Longfei, to call Du Ge in the capital, you probably won't be able to find another person."
After the words were finished, Qin Longfei and Peng Quan walked in from the door.
Regarding the appearance of Qin Longfei and Peng Quan, except for Du Cheng, Fang Qinzhong and the others were obviously a little stunned, apparently they did not expect that these two people would walk in suddenly.
"Peng Quan, I'm right. I said that person is Brother Du. You still don't believe me." After speaking, Qin Longfei pointed to Du Cheng who was sitting on the seat, and said to Peng Quan with a proud face .
He and Peng Quan didn't barge in on purpose, the two originally invited some friends to eat here, but just now when Qin Longfei came out to make a phone call, he accidentally saw Du Cheng enter this box , So, he naturally dragged Peng Quan over.
The relationship between these two is not ordinary. After Du Cheng introduced everyone to each other for the first time, these two like-minded guys took a photo together. Now they are very famous in the circle of princes in the capital. .
Peng Quan usually looks very sunny, but the arrogance in his bones was fully displayed when Du Cheng asked them out for the first time. It can be imagined that Peng Quan basically belongs to the kind who is a sheep during the day and a wolf at night Type up.
Qin Longfei is similar, this guy has nothing to say to his own people, but he is very proud when speaking to outsiders.
"Why are you here too?"
For the appearance of Qin Longfei and Peng Quan, Du Cheng didn't look surprised at all, because when the two came over, Du Cheng already guessed it was them from their voices.
On the other hand, Fang Qinzhong didn't care about Qin Longfei and Peng Quan's coming in, because he had already got the answer from Qin Longfei's words, that is to say, the Du Cheng in front of him was Brother Du.
Not only did Fang Qinzhong get the answer, but so did Wang Qiuying and Fang Xiaoyi.
Only Cheng Yan looked at Du Cheng with a puzzled face. She didn't know what Brother Du meant, so she could only wait for someone else's explanation, or ask Du Cheng to explain it to her when she went back.
Qin Longfei was very straightforward, and responded directly: "I invited some friends to have dinner here, but I didn't expect you, Brother Du, to be here."
After speaking, Qin Longfei turned his gaze to Fang Qinzhong again, and said with a smile: "Mayor Fang, I'm sorry to bother you."
As Qin Longfei, he naturally knew this Fang Qinzhong.
"How come, we are all acquaintances, so what to do politely, why not sit together, we are just getting started." Fang Qinzhong is a smart person, he directly took advantage of the trend, and turned out to be a relationship.
Whether it is Qin Longfei or Peng Quan, their backgrounds are not simple. For Fang Qinzhong, a deputy mayor with a foreign household type, naturally he will not give up this opportunity to get closer to these future heirs to power.
Moreover, the appearance of Qin Longfei and Peng Quan just helped him prove Du Cheng's identity. This is undoubtedly the more authentic Du Cheng's own answer.
"No, I have an appointment with a friend, next time."
Qin Longfei naturally won't sit down, he just came to say hello to Du Cheng, Cheng Yan is here, he and Peng Quan are very acquainted on this occasion, so after rejecting Fang Qinzhong, Qin Longfei went directly to Du Cheng He made a gesture to make a phone call, and then left with Peng Quan.
Regarding the appearance of these two guys, Du Cheng was a little speechless, but Qin Longfei and Peng Quan appeared at the right time, and they helped him confirm his identity, which saved Fang Qinzhong from beating around the bush to find out his identity up.
Since there was no way to hide it, Du Cheng didn't intend to hide anything.
After watching Qin Longfei and the others leave, Fang Qinzhong turned his gaze to Du Cheng, who was still smiling slightly, raised his glass and said, "Du Cheng, I didn't expect you to be Brother Du, I'm sorry."
Du Cheng clinked a glass with the other party, and then replied with a smile: "It's just a name given by my friends, uncle, you should call me by my first name."
Hearing what Du Cheng said, Fang Qinzhong's face became a little more excited, don't say anything else, just relying on this uncle, he is worth it.
Seeing that Du Cheng was friendly, Wang Qiuying smiled and said to Du Cheng: "Du Cheng, you lied to my aunt yesterday that you were just doing a small business and making trouble. Do you think you want to punish yourself three times?"
Wang Qiuying originally said it because she saw the smile on Du Cheng's face, but after she said it, she felt something was wrong.
"Auntie said yes, then I'll punish myself with three glasses." Du Cheng didn't mind, and after answering, he picked up the wine glass.
After finishing speaking, Du Cheng poured three glasses very simply, and then drank it all in one gulp.
Cheng Yan knew Du Cheng's drinking capacity, and these wines were nothing to Du Cheng, but he knew a little better, the more friendly the smile on Du Cheng's face, the more repulsive he was in his heart, the reason why he didn't express She came out entirely because of her, Cheng Yan.
But these are nothing, what Cheng Yan is really curious about is Du Cheng's identity as Du Ge, what kind of identity is it that makes Fang Qinzhong's family, who usually put on high-ranking airs in front of their Cheng family, so fawning on him? .
In other words, if someone doesn't know the relationship, they might think that Fang Qinzhong and Wang Qiuying are Du Cheng's aunt and uncle, not her Cheng Yan's.
Fang Xiaoyi was secretly looking at Du Cheng. She really couldn't understand why this man who didn't look very handsome and didn't seem to have any outstanding features would be the same as the man Zhang Yanan mentioned almost every day. There are relationships.
And the brother Du that Zhang Yanan was talking about was even more miraculous. No matter how Fang Xiaoyi thought about it, she couldn't combine the two.
While Fang Xiaoyi was sizing up, Fang Qinzhong asked Du Cheng again: "Du Cheng, you plan to stay in the capital for a few days this time, and if you are free, come to my house."
Du Cheng didn't have that kind of time at all, so he politely refused: "Next time, Cheng Yan and I will leave tomorrow, and next time we come to the capital, we can visit your uncle's house again."
Seeing Du Cheng's refusal, Fang Qinzhong didn't dare to force anything, and responded accordingly: "Well, next time, next time you come to the capital, you must call me and your aunt, so that we can do our best. Landlord's favor."
--------------------------------------
For Du Cheng, it was undoubtedly a very boring lunch. In the end, he had to use the old method and directly simulated a fake call through Xiner to find an excuse to leave.
"Du Cheng, you should be able to tell me now, what does the word Du Ge represent?"
Sitting in the vice seat, Cheng Yan asked Du Cheng curiously: "I can't remember what kind of identity the word Du Ge can represent. My aunt and uncle would be so flattering to you. .”
Thinking of the fawning between Fang Qinzhong and Wang Qiuying at the dinner table just now, Cheng Yan felt a little sick now.
In the past, when she and her parents came to the capital every year, Fang Qinzhong seldom appeared in front of them, and Wang Qiuying's words were even more indifferent. Rise, Wang Qiuying's attitude is better now.
However, Cheng Yan remembered it clearly. It seemed that they had never been to Fang Qinzhong's house as guests over the years, and they hadn't even met Fang Qinzhong a few times.
But now, Fang Qinzhong and Wang Qiuying are extremely flattering to Du Cheng, and they are completely different from when they were facing her Cheng Yan's family.
Du Cheng smiled slightly, listening to Cheng Yan talking about Fang Qinzhong and Wang Qiuying, his eyes were slightly more indifferent.
Obviously, as Cheng Yan said, behind Du Cheng's seeming amiability, he was actually more indifferent. If it wasn't for Cheng Yan, these people, Du Cheng, would not have paid any attention to them at all.
"Cheng Yan, do you really want to know?" After thinking for a while, Du Cheng asked Cheng Yan.
"Um."
Cheng Yan nodded lightly, she was indeed extremely curious.
