Chapter 1115 Panic
Ma Ling looked at the lively women over there and felt a little annoyed. That Pace seemed to be quite popular there.
Taking advantage of his good looks and polite appearance, Pace was in the backyard and was really like a fish in water. For men, beautiful women are pleasing to the eyes, and for women, young and handsome men are equally pleasing to the eyes.
Of course, Ma Ling still ignored him, Vincent was indifferent to him, and Mei Jianzhong had the biggest opinion about him.
Mei Jianzhong could see at a glance what this kid was up to. He was actually blatantly targeting his great-grandson's mother? How did Yiping let him in?
Of course, the old man would not play any angry games now. At his age, in many cases, he could naturally keep his emotions to himself, or even be the opposite.
For example, he looked at Pace very kindly now. Although he didn't say anything, his eyes clearly said, "You are a good boy, I am optimistic about you."
The young classmate Pace couldn't understand this now. He felt a little funny when he saw the foreign old man who should be the family of the guy surnamed Feng, who admired him so undisguisedly. After you know my purpose, will you still be like this?
He really hoped that the boy surnamed Feng inside could come out and see at this time. What would he think if he saw this scene?
He naturally felt very proud. I am really such an excellent person. Look, even people who met for the first time have such a good impression of me!
But what annoyed him was that Ma Ling turned a blind eye to all this?
He decided to show off his skills again, so he snatched the job of the barbecue master again. He seemed to be really good at it. The things he baked were pretty good. Soon, several middle-aged and young women gathered in front of the oven, and even the two girls who regarded themselves as Ma Ling's best friends went to watch.
He looked over the crowd and looked at Ma Ling. Unfortunately, Ma Ling still didn't look at him. Instead, the old man nodded at him with a smile.
Pace looked inside the room with a bit of pride. Hum, how could someone like me not be welcome?
He felt that although the start of today was not optimistic, the current situation was quite favorable to him, and this just showed his ability.
Looking at the proud look of the boy, Mei Jianzhong looked at Ma Ling who was with him, patted her shoulder, and looked at her very approvingly, "Good girl!"
Of course, this time, it was his real thought.
…………
As a parent, John was naturally paying attention to what happened at home. The young man who came here later was the only guest besides his friends. Was this invited by Ma Ling?
But after watching for a while, he saw that this boy was obviously interested in his daughter. He looked at Feng Yiping and was still answering his friend's questions seriously, or asking for advice.
So did he not know about it, or did he not care?
In short, after discovering this, he has been splitting his attention, and he will never allow anything out of the ordinary to happen on this occasion today.
…………
The popular barbecue chef Pace was in a good mood. After sending away a group of fans, he carefully grilled two steaks and prepared to give them to Ma Ling so that she could also taste his cooking skills. But the phone rang, Dad, he held the plate in one hand and answered it without thinking, "Mr. Ambassador, hello,"
This call came at a good time, isn't it just right to use the call to reveal his identity to Ma Ling? However, before he walked to Ma Ling's table, his face changed, and later he couldn't hide the panic on his face. Let alone let Ma Ling try his barbecue skills, he didn't dare to approach that place now, and turned around and walked back.
Is this the first time his father is so strict with him, causing them a lot of trouble? Dad's words don't sound fake, but really a little panicked. What's going on?
He held the phone and looked around blankly. This place doesn't seem to be a place that can cause trouble to an embassy!
He looked at Feng Yiping, who was chatting and laughing inside and seemed to be the central figure, and suddenly remembered what he had said before when he asked someone to contact Capitol Hill. Could it be that what he said just now was all true?
As soon as this idea came out, although he was trying his best to resist it in his heart, he understood more and more that it might be true! Because those people on Capitol Hill could just put pressure on the embassy directly.
How could he have such a good relationship and make such an effective response in such a short time?
Who is he? Of course, it seems unnecessary to think about this now, as long as you understand that he is a person who can make the ambassador's father headache.
So, if my father asked me to apologize, shouldn't I apologize to him?
It turned out that he thought that his identity had crushed the Feng surname, but he didn't expect to be easily crushed in turn. With such a big ups and downs, he now dared not look at Feng Yiping.
He felt his face burning. In their eyes, those previous performances were like clowns.
Feng Yiping was right. To deal with a guy like him, it would be best to be proud of him and trample his biggest backers and reliance on the ground, so that he would be impressed.
Pace hesitated for a while. Should he apologize to Feng Yiping? He still couldn't bring himself to do that, or he didn't have the courage to do that at this time.
He adjusted his mood and walked towards Ma Ling again, but this time he was empty-handed. Moreover, he didn't show his most satisfied smile that would please girls the most, as he usually did when he saw Ma Ling. His expression was very serious and heavy.
Ma Ling naturally saw him approaching, but still pretended not to see him.
"Ma Ling, first of all, I apologize to you for the trouble and inconvenience I have caused you recently," Pace said with his head down, his voice was not loud, "Although my original intention was really not to cause you trouble,"
Now, he did not dare to say anything like liking her or Vincent.
"I promise you that such a thing will never happen again in the future, and I will never bother you again,"
"Mr. Feng is busy, so it's not good to bother you. You and I are alumni after all. I hope you can convey my apologies to him. I am deeply sorry for my rude behavior to him yesterday and today. Goodbye!" After saying that, he bowed and turned away.
In the corner of his eye, he saw the old man with white eyebrows still smiling at him, but why did it seem like a mockery? So, were the previous smiles also mockery?
The women who were chatting and laughing in the corridor naturally saw this scene. Why did the style suddenly change? What happened?
Ma Ling looked really confused now. She was also very puzzled by Pace's sudden move. What happened? Was it another trick of his?
Could it be Yiping? She looked inside the house. Yes, it must be him. He just told him to deal with it.
She was full of pride again. He was indeed the man I liked.
Mei Jianzhong was also very proud. Although he didn't understand what the young man said just now, he could see clearly what happened.
He was indeed my grandson. He didn't even show up, but let this arrogant young man bow his head and admit defeat.
John also saw this scene. Looking at Feng Yiping who was still talking and laughing, he realized that he was not unaware or indifferent, but was confident.
In his heart, he raised his evaluation of Feng Yiping to another level.
Alas, it is not unreasonable for my daughter to be so obsessed with him.
…………
Came here with excitement, but now she is running away in a hurry. And after returning, it seems that what is waiting for her is definitely not a good thing. So when Pace went out, he was not happy with everything.
As soon as the driver opened the car door, he saw several newspapers scattered on the back seat, and immediately said with a fierce face, "What's going on?"
"Sorry, I just read it," the driver hurriedly put away the newspapers.
Pace huddled in his seat, looking at the street scene outside, but he was thinking, what is the identity of that Feng man? Oh, the clothes that the old man was wearing seemed to be the clothes that some high-ranking officials there would wear in public. Could they be Chinese dignitaries?
No, he shook his head immediately.
Given the relationship between China and the United States, Chinese dignitaries are the least likely to affect Capitol Hill.
If they are not Chinese dignitaries, then who could they be? Pace pondered and thought that he seemed to have overlooked something. What was it? It seemed that when he saw him yesterday, he felt a little familiar?
It was not until the car drove to the white marble fountain in the Dupont Circle area, a few steps away from the embassy, that Pace suddenly remembered what happened to him, "Newspaper, give me the newspaper just now, quickly!" He urged the driver.
He finally remembered what he had overlooked. There seemed to be a picture of him on the newspaper just now.
Two minutes later, after reading the news about the NEXTDOOR thank-you party, Pace realized that the person he had always looked down on was not only someone he had to look up to, but even his father, who was an ambassador of a country, could not do anything to him.
It turned out that what Ma Ling and Vincent said were all true. He really had to be away on business trips frequently.
I really didn't do anything. There shouldn't be any consequences. It won't have any impact on my father!
However, looking at the embassy not far ahead, Pace, who was very uncertain, was really a little afraid to go back. What if there were any consequences?
…………
Feng Yiping's speech was also coming to an end, "So, if we are not ready to welcome this great era now, we will definitely be despised in the future,"
Seeing the people present once again fall into deep thought, John clapped his hands in satisfaction, and he really made himself proud, "Okay, let's prepare to cut the cake,"
"Hey, where is that guy?" Feng Yiping couldn't see the boy named Pace, and secretly asked Ma Ling, could it be that she was so powerful that she drove him away.
Ma Ling rolled his eyes at him, "Don't you know the reason yet? By the way, he also entrusted me to apologize to you,"
Haha, so Buchanan's relationship is quite strong? It's not in vain that the company has made so many preparations and spent so much money in this regard.
"Why would I be so petty with him?" Feng Yiping waved his hand, as if to shake off those unpleasant things, "Let's go, pick up my son to blow out the candles,"
John took in all their interactions, and when he passed by them with a few people, he suddenly stopped, looked at them, then nodded and patted Feng Yiping on the shoulder.
Ma Ling and Feng Yiping were puzzled. They were so close all of a sudden. What are you trying to do?
