Tiger Police

Chapter 67 The Sturdy Woman

Liao Qiu felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange, mainly because Luo Hongfang was too enthusiastic, and the halo of concentration shrouded Hu Pingtao, and he was only superficially polite to him.

He couldn't understand it.He wanted to ask Xiong Jie, but he knew it was not the time, so he could only watch while eating, and wait and see what happened.

After the four of them ate for more than ten minutes, a tall and burly figure finally walked into the private room and appeared in front of everyone.

She is a round-faced girl in her twenties, with a visually estimated height of over 20 meters five.Long hair, wearing a black suit skirt.

Luo Hongfang smiled and introduced: "This is my daughter Zhang Zixin."

She is not ugly, but it has to be admitted that the face with too much makeup is featureless, walking on the street is just a passerby, the kind that hardly turns heads.

Very fat and thick-waisted.

Liao Qiu usually went shopping with his wife to buy clothes when he was resting. He could tell that the black suit skirt Zhang Zixin was wearing was a plus size, especially the skirt.

In short, this girl's appearance barely passes.

The smile on Luo Hongfang's face deepened, and she pointed her finger at Hu Pingtao: "Xiaohu, this is my daughter. Xinxin, this is the Hu Pingtao I told you about. Hehe, you are all young people, let's get to know each other ,To make friends."

These words point out the purpose of today's dinner appointment.

Liao Qiu understood, he could understand Xiong Jie's mood at the moment, so he smiled, lowered his head, and concentrated on dealing with the fish in the bowl.

Hu Pingtao played with the chopsticks in his hand. He really wanted to explain, but the occasion was too appropriate, so he couldn't just say "I have a girlfriend" in front of other people's smiling faces.What's more, Luo Hongfang did not directly state the blind date, but only said "get to know each other and be friends".

Since you didn't make it clear, it's easy to handle.

He stood up, stretched out his right hand to Zhang Zixin, with a very comfortable smile: "Hello, I'm Hu Pingtao."

The chubby girl also stood up, her expression was a little indifferent, and she could see that she was not very interested in this matter, she touched Hu Pingtao's hand with her fingertips and immediately retracted: "Hello."

When the two sat down, Luo Hongfang complained to her daughter in a low voice: "I made an appointment with you, why are you late? We have a fixed break at noon, and everyone has to go to work in the afternoon. How many times have I told you that you must abide by the time, and don't do this in the future. "

Zhang Zixin curled her lips and said nothing.She was probably hungry, so she took a fish out of the pot and ate it by herself.

The previous atmosphere was broken, and Hu Pingtao couldn't comment on it.He also followed Liao Qiu and Xiong Jie's example, concentrating on handling the food in the bowl, eating first before talking.

Everyone was eating sullenly, and Luo Hongfang became a full-time commentator at the table.

"Xiaohu, my daughter is a graduate of Peking University and now works for a multinational company."

"You young people should get together more, after all you have a common language."

"Come to Aunt Luo's house for dinner if you have time... just this weekend, come to our house to make dumplings."

"Xiao Liao, you are the director. Don't arrange work for Xiaohu this weekend. Give him a day off on Saturday."

Liao Qiu just put a large piece of fish into his mouth, but he couldn't speak when he wanted to answer, so he nodded in embarrassment.

This is a normal and reasonable request, not a compulsory arrangement.

Zhang Zixin was beside her but she was not happy.She put the chopsticks on the table and shouted very unhappy: "...Mom, what are you doing?"

Luo Hongfang hurriedly said, "I just invited Xiaohu to have dinner at home, what's wrong?"

There was a trace of sullenness on Zhang Zixin's fat round face, her eyebrows quickly gathered in the middle, and her eyes squeezed by too much fat were staring at Hu Pingtao.

To be precise, staring at the epaulettes of his black uniform.

"Which university did you graduate from?" she asked bluntly.

"College of Art, Department of Fine Arts." Hu Pingtao answered politely with chopsticks in his right hand.

A trace of disdain flashed in Zhang Zixin's eyes: "How much is your monthly salary?"

Hu Pingtao roughly guessed what she was thinking, so he told the truth: "With various subsidies, it will be more than 5000!"

Liao Qiu smiled and said, "Xiaohu will become a regular next year, and he will be able to earn more than [-]."

Zhang Zixin spoke very quickly: "I am also a trainee. My current monthly salary is 2000, and I also have more than [-] service subsidies. When I become a regular next month, I can get [-]. When the adaptation period is over in half a year, I The monthly income will not be less than [-]."

Her words were full of gunpowder.

Hu Pingtao smiled calmly, and said seriously: "As expected of an industry elite who graduated from Peking University."

It sounds like a compliment on the surface, but there is actually a hint of sarcasm hidden in it.Forbearance depends on the person, since you don't give me face, why should I show mercy.

Luo Hongfang was anxious, and quickly persuaded: "Xinxin, what are you doing? I called you here just to have a meal together, let's get to know each other."

"I'm indeed here to eat!" Zhang Zixin's voice became louder: "But Mom, you can't lie to me!"

Luo Hongfang didn't know what to say: "...how did I lie to you?"

Zhang Zixin pointed at Hu Pingtao, and asked sharply: "Is he the one you introduced to me?"

Luo Hongfang said: "Yes!"

Zhang Zixin sneered and said, "Can you speak three foreign languages, know Morse code, and be proficient in everything?"

Luo Hongfang still didn't understand, and nodded subconsciously: "What, you think I lied to you? If you don't believe me, ask Uncle Xiong."

"Why should I ask others? Don't tell me I can't see with my own eyes!" Zhang Zixin should be very pampered at home.She made no effort to hide the displeasure on her face, sarcasm, and reasoned with the facts: "Let's not mention work ability, just speak foreign languages! There is a big difference between "proficient" and "knowledgeable"."

"Let's just talk about me. I am proficient in English. The company often sends me on business trips. There is no problem in business communication and communication. People who joined the company with me at the same time are not good at foreign languages, and their salary is not as high as mine."

Zhang Zixin stared at Hu Pingtao, speaking without saving face for the other party at all, her tone was full of arrogance: "My mother said that you can speak three foreign languages, but you told me that the monthly salary is only five thousand, and after you become a regular, it will only be seven thousand." Thousands. Don’t think I don’t know anything, the public security system will recruit special talents, if you really have that ability, your monthly salary will be at least [-] yuan after you become a regular.”

"I can say "Savatika". Does that count as knowing Thai?"

"I still say "Oh ha yo Guo Dayi Masi", does this count as being able to speak Japanese?"

"I have no prejudice against you, because my mother is a policeman. But I think personal ability and income must be in direct proportion. It is gold that shines everywhere, and talents are valued no matter where they go. A monthly income of [-] to [-] There is a big gap between them, I hope you will keep pace with the times when bragging in the future, read more books, read more comments on the Internet, and stop making such jokes."

"Finally, I have no prejudice against you. You are handsome, but you are not my type. I am actually very self-aware. I am not beautiful, so my requirement for marriage is to have more connotations. Look good. My future husband can be average in appearance, but he must have a high income and a lot of money. My mother told me about your family situation. Your father is a soldier and your mother is a civil servant. This is what I imagined The difference is huge."

"I'm a straight-talking person. You and I shouldn't have any intersections in the future, so don't take what my mother said before. After dinner, everyone will go their own way. What kind of friends are you?" That's fine."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Zixin picked up the handbag beside her, stood up, said hello to Xiong Jie and Liao Qiu respectively, and walked out of the private room without looking back.

She didn't save Luo Hongfang any face, obviously she was very dissatisfied with the dinner arranged by her mother.

Luo Hongfang sat there, his face turned red and turned white.

Xiong Jie smiled and smoothed things over: "Lao Luo, your daughter is as good as your husband. At best, it's quick talk, but at worst, if you don't like it, just ignore it. It's very offensive!"

Liao Qiu also persuaded with a smile: "Young people are full of personality, forget it, forget it."

Luo Hongfang clenched her teeth and scolded her daughter ten thousand times in her heart.

When she and her daughter made an appointment for lunch the night before yesterday, Zhang Zixin made it clear that she "doesn't like men who are policemen".In order to arouse her daughter's interest, Luo Hongfang praised Hu Pingtao's fancy style, focusing on "he can speak three foreign languages, and he is an excellent worker who was awarded by the branch last year."

But these are not attractive to Zhang Zixin.

Hu Chongxian's status is aloof, and without much certainty, Luo Hongfang can't introduce too much about Hu Pingtao's family situation to his daughter.In her opinion, her daughter's comprehensive ability is far inferior to that of Hu Pingtao, and if this matter is not done well, the woman will actively pursue the man.

If Hu Pingtao is not willing, it will be troublesome.

But she never expected that her daughter would suddenly get angry at the dinner table, say a lot of embarrassing things for the other party and herself, then pat her butt and leave.

Luo Hongfang wished there was a crack in the ground for him to slip in.

Hu Pingtao observed the words and expressions, and picked up the teacup: "Aunt Luo, I would like to toast you."

Luo Hongfang quickly picked up the cup and replied, "Thank you!"

Hu Pingtao laughed and said, "Don't worry about what happened just now. Your daughter is still young and she is not busy getting married. No matter how anxious you are, it is useless."

Luo Hongfang's face was still red, she was very embarrassed, and said in a low voice: "Yeah... this child... she is not like this..."

Hu Pingtao still smiled: "Aunt Luo, you should have told me earlier. Actually, I have a girlfriend... But thank you very much."

There were a lot of things at the police station, so Liao Qiu ordered rice, three of them picked up a big bowl, said hello after eating, and left with Hu Pingtao.

Only Xiong Jie and Luo Hongfang were left on the table.

Xiong Jie made a bowl of rice for himself, scooped up fish soup from the pot with a spoon and poured it on the rice, slowly mixed it with chopsticks, and said earnestly, "Lao Luo, your daughter has a bad temper. Liao Qiu You are right, young people have personality, but you have to look at the occasion. Today you are here, I am here, plus Liao Qiu, who is not older than her? Who is not as senior as her? But she just doesn't give face, Open your mouth blah blah blah blah blah blah blah, then leave, no matter what other people think.”

The anger on Luo Hongfang's face was clearly visible: "I'll go home tonight and I'll have a good talk with Xinxin. She's really shameless."

"The portrait is hanging on the wall." Xiong Jie joked, relaxing the atmosphere: "It can only be said that there is no such fate between your daughter and Xiaohu. There is a great opportunity in front of her and she doesn't want it, even if two people talk about it. No, it’s not bad to be an ordinary friend! Let me tell you, your daughter is arrogant and arrogant in college, and no one pays attention to it. Is it amazing to graduate from Peking University? A monthly salary of 3 to [-] yuan is worth it Boasting? Xiaohu can speak three foreign languages, so it can’t be faked. Zhu Yubin from the Department of Commerce would rather pay so much money to the provincial department every year than poach Hu Pingtao. If this story spreads, your daughter will regret it at some point. "

Luo Hongfang sat there without saying a word. The more she thought about it, the more regretful she became, wishing she could grab her daughter and beat her up.

"Don't think about it, it's all over anyway." Xiong Jie comforted, "You know what's going on at home. You haven't eaten much, so hurry up and have work in the afternoon!"

……

On the way, Hu Pingtao received a call from Su Xiaolin.

"What are you doing?" Her voice on the phone was sweet.

"Getting ready to go back to work." Hu Pingtao smiled and said, "I was eating just now, and someone introduced me to someone."

Su Xiaolin suddenly became nervous on the other end of the phone: "What did you say?"

Hu Pingtao explained the matter briefly: "It's actually a misunderstanding."

Su Xiaolin issued a threatening warning from the phone: "I have left a mark on you, always remember: you are mine!"

The phone was very loud, and Liao Qiu was listening beside him. While driving, he turned his head and gave Hu Pingtao a malicious look, and suppressed a smile.

Hu Pingtao smiled and said, "I would like to follow Her Majesty's will. By the way, why do you think of calling me now?"

"I miss you!" The last syllable was very long, and the little girl acted coquettishly, full of flirtatiousness.

She immediately said, "Let's have dinner together tonight!"

"I'm afraid I don't have time." Hu Pingtao said honestly: "I can't tell when I get off work here, and I have to call the police if I have a task, you know."

"Then let's go on weekends!" Su Xiaolin said very well: "Let's watch a movie together."

"We'll talk about it when the time comes. I'll definitely come out when I'm free." Hu Pingtao didn't dare to say anything.

The two chatted for a few more words before hanging up the phone.

Liao Qiu was quite interested and said, "Xiaohu, you are a good girlfriend! She cares about you very much. This weekend you take a normal day off and spend time with her."

"Thank you, director." Hu Pingtao said this sincerely.

"Where does your girlfriend work?" Liao Qiu asked while driving.

"Business Hall." Hu Pingtao said, "I just met her not long ago."

Liao Qiu was a little surprised, and asked suspiciously: "Is it because you accompanied me to Lijiang last time?"

"Yes."

"According to this, the situation is a bit complicated!" Liao Qiu said while making up his own brain: "For you, the Department of Commerce gave the sub-bureau such a large sum of money, and your girlfriend also works there... It feels like they are poaching you. In the past, even the beauty trick was used?"
