Chapter 2332 The Engagement Ceremony of Yang Pan and Liu Xue
Yang Pan seemed to have expected this, and he went on to say that Zhang Xiaolan had been invited, and that Zhang Xiaolan had made it clear that she would attend the engagement ceremony.

When Niu Xiaoqiang heard that Zhang Xiaolan was going to participate, he changed his mind and nodded in agreement.

In the evening of Christmas Day, Niu Xiaoqiang put on a very formal custom-made suit and privately-made leather shoes on his feet.

It's winter now, and Boston's winter is a bit cold. In order to keep out the cold, Niu Xiaoqiang specially ordered a black woolen trench coat outside.

He first arrived at the airport in that luxury version of the Packard bulletproof car. Zhang Xiaolan called him in the morning and said that he would return to Boston Airport at six in the evening.Although she owns a BMW, the car is parked in a rental house, and it is inconvenient to go back to drive in order to hurry, so Zhang Xiaolan asked Niu Xiaoqiang to pick her up at the airport, and then the two of them can go to Yang Pan and Liu Xue's event together. It's the engagement ceremony.

Niu Xiaoqiang fully agreed and made all the preparations in advance.He even went to the luxury store to pick out an evening dress for Zhang Xiaolan to attend the engagement ceremony as Zhang Xiaolan requested.

Xie Jun and more than 20 elite bodyguards drove five cars behind Niu Xiaoqiang. After Niu Xiaoqiang arrived at the airport, he stood at the exit and waited quietly for Zhang Xiaolan to come out.

At a quarter past six, Zhang Xiaolan passed the security check and came out with a luggage bag.

I haven't seen her for a few months. Zhang Xiaolan looks thinner, but she is in good spirits. She greeted Niu Xiaoqiang with a smile as soon as they met.

Niu Xiaoqiang took Zhang Xiaolan's luggage very graciously, put one arm around Zhang Xiaolan's shoulder, and the two walked toward the parking lot very affectionately.

"Xiaolan, it's been really hard for you during this time. Look at you, you've lost so much weight, it's really distressing."

"Everything else is fine. The main reason is that the supervisor is a little troublesome. He has to go back and forth to various construction sites every day. If you don't help me keep an eye on it, I can't explain it to you if there is a quality problem."

Niu Xiaoqiang persuaded with a moved face: "You are the general manager of this project, and you can ask technicians to do the supervisory work. You only need to be responsible for the overall situation. Why do you have to work so hard on yourself?"

Zhang Xiaolan smiled sweetly: "It's better to keep an eye on some things by yourself, I don't feel relieved to leave it to other people."

Niu Xiaoqiang knew that Zhang Xiaolan was a woman who was soft on the outside but strong on the inside. Hearing what she said, Niu Xiaoqiang had no choice but to give up. He changed the subject and said, "Does Uncle Zhang know about Yang Pan and Liu Xue's engagement?"

Zhang Xiaolan hummed: "Of course my dad knows, but he's been too busy recently, so he really doesn't have time to come to the United States to participate."

Zhang Xiaolan shook her head slightly when she said this, and continued: "When my dad called me, he was still complaining, saying that Liu Xue was not very sensible, and it was nothing more than a Westerner's engagement ceremony, but he still wanted to do it in the United States, according to his plan. It is said that sooner or later, Liu Xue will become a traitor who worships foreigners."

Niu Xiaoqiang couldn't help laughing and said: "Liu Xue has studied in the United States for several years, and he will inevitably be influenced by Western culture. There is nothing to blame for this matter."

Zhang Xiaolan sighed: "My dad was not such a rigid person. The reason why he said these things to me was that he was annoyed by Aunt Liu. The two quarreled over whether to come to the United States to attend the engagement ceremony. It's been a few days, alas, my dad is also pitiful, he is already busy with work, but when he gets home, he will be complained by his wife, I am really worried that he will not be able to hold on."

Hearing this, Niu Xiaoqiang put away his smile, frowned slightly and said, "Aunt Liu is too ignorant, isn't she? What is the identity of uncle? I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at him. Even if he is not busy with work, he can't make a special trip I came to the United States to attend the engagement ceremony. Aunt Liu is fine. She doesn’t know the severity at all. Isn’t this causing trouble for my uncle? To be honest, not only my uncle can’t come, but Aunt Liu can’t either, otherwise it will definitely bring negative effects to my uncle. Influence."

Zhang Xiaolan nodded vigorously and said, "My dad told me the same thing, but Aunt Liu didn't listen to my advice at all. She insisted on coming to the United States to attend Liu Xue's engagement ceremony, and even said that my dad practiced double standards during the quarrel. My dad only cares about me, not about Liu Xue, a girl, and even specifically mentioned my transfer to MIT. It didn't work out, my dad was so angry that he almost divorced her."

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled wryly and shook his head: "To be honest, when I first met Liu Hui, she was so honest. I didn't expect that after a few years, she would become like this. If I had known this, I would not have her I introduced it to my uncle, and my uncle is also aggrieved, now that he has a child with Liu Hui, it is not so easy to get a divorce."

Zhang Xiaolan hummed: "I think so too. My dad and Aunt Liu already have children, so it's really not suitable for a divorce, so I can only talk about my dad as much as possible to let him relax, even if Aunt Liu wants to If you want to quarrel with him, he just tries to avoid it, and I don't know if my dad listened to it."

Zhang Xiaolan sighed again when she said this: "I must accompany him well during the Chinese New Year this year to ease his mood. Speaking of which, my daughter is also quite unfilial. Since she went abroad to study, she spends every year with her father. There are only a handful of them, alas, I shouldn’t even think about it.”

Niu Xiaoqiang comforted: "You are currently studying for a graduate student, and you can go back to China to work after you graduate, so that you can spend more time with your uncle."

Zhang Xiaolan turned her head to look at Niu Xiaoqiang when she heard the words: "If I return to China, who will take over the work you entrusted to me? This project may take two or three years to complete. After all, I am already familiar with it. I'm afraid it's not good to come alone, right?"

Niu Xiaoqiang chuckled and said, "This problem can be solved very easily. You can train a capable assistant from now on. When you return to China, let this assistant take over, isn't it all right?"

Zhang Xiaolan thought for a while, and finally shook her head: "As the saying goes, you know what you know, but you don't know your heart. Yes, won’t this affect the quality of the project? Forget it, I’ll continue to oversee the work and wait until the project is finished before thinking about other things.”

Niu Xiaoqiang rolled his eyes: "How about this? Not long ago, I opened an oil company under my name. In the future, I can invite my uncle to visit the United States or conduct business negotiations in the name of the company. In this way, you can talk to my uncle We've seen each other often, do you think it's okay?"
