Mahjong

Chapter 47

The waiter left a sentence, sir, please wait a moment, then turned and left.Chen Shen blocked everyone's sight with his body, stretched out his hand and lightly pressed the phone switch, and quietly hung up the phone.This small action of Chen Shen did not hide from Tang Shanhai's eyes, he subconsciously helped Chen Shen block the sight of a man beside him.Chen Shen saw it in his eyes and knew it in his heart.

In the phone booth, Wu Long, who was waiting, heard that the phone was busy, and shouted anxiously into the microphone.Unwillingly, he pressed the phone switch and redialed the number, but the phone received a busy tone.

Biantou led Bi Zhongliang to the bar, and said, "Don't worry, sir, our team is guarding outside, it must be safe."

Bi Zhongliang nodded and said: "Then you have worked hard. When the birthday banquet is over, open a table to reward the brothers."

After Bi Zhongliang finished speaking, he saw Chen Shen. He walked up to Chen Shen and asked, "What's the call? Did you call here?"

Chen Shen stretched out his hand to take the kvass that the waiter just handed over, and shrugged his shoulders to express his ignorance.Bi Zhongliang picked up the phone and gave a hello, and then found that the phone was disconnected.He glanced at the receiver, put the phone on the phone, a little surprised, "Who called, why did you hang up?" Then he glanced at Chen Shen and asked, "Why are you alone?"

Chen Shen didn't answer, he looked at Bi Zhongliang's blushing face and said: "It seems that you have to have eight taels if you don't drink a catty, can you last until the end of the wine game?" Chen Shen handed over his kvass Gi Bi Zhongliang continued, "Wash your mouth."

Bi Zhongliang took Kvass and took a sip, "There's no way, everyone on No. 76 is our Bodhisattva, so you can't do without worship. If I drink too much later, you must carry me back."

Chen Shen smiled, and snapped his fingers at the waiter at the counter, "One more bottle of kvass."

Tang Shanhai, who was standing not far from them, thought for a moment, then turned to Xu Bicheng and said, "Bicheng, it's time for us to go in and toast uncle."

Xu Bicheng nodded, "Oh, okay, I'll pour a glass of wine first."

Bi Zhongliang and Chen Shen obviously also heard Tang Shanhai's words. He looked at Tang Shanhai, but it was Bi Zhongliang who asked: "Should I be brought in to have a toast with the birthday star?"

Bi Zhongliang nodded again and again, "Yes, no matter what, you can't go later than Tang Shanhai."

Chen Shen smiled, glanced at the phone and asked, "Aren't you waiting for the call?"

Bi Zhongliang embraced Chen Shen and said, "The toast is important."

Chen Shen picked up Gvass with a smile, and followed Bi Zhongliang to the box.Xu Bicheng, who had already poured the wine, walked to Tang Shanhai, and Tang Shanhai immediately said in a low voice: "Go and occupy the phone, I will find a way to destroy the phone line."

Xu Bicheng quickly put down his wine glass and walked towards the bar.Tang Shanhai observed the route of the telephone wires, and secretly took a western knife from the dining table and put it in his coat pocket while no one was prepared.Xu Bicheng walked to the bar and said politely to the waiter, "Hello, I would like to borrow the phone."

Before Xu Bicheng could pick up the receiver, the phone rang again.Tang Shanhai, who walked to the corner where the telephone line was laid, was also nervous when he heard the phone ring.Chen Shen was also nervous.Bi Zhongliang turned his head when he heard the phone ring. Coincidentally, Secretary Sun happened to appear at the door of the box.

Chen Shen hurriedly shouted enthusiastically: "Secretary Sun!"

Secretary Sun looked at Chen Shen and said, "Chen Shen, come quickly, Director Li just asked about you."

Bi Zhongliang and Secretary Sun smiled at each other and walked into the box one after another.The phone on the bar was still ringing.The waiter was about to answer the phone, but Xu Bicheng quickly grabbed the receiver and answered it.

Wu Long's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hi, I'm looking for Director Bi."

Xu Bicheng pretended not to hear the sound, "Hey, hello, why is there no sound?"

The waiter looked at Xu Bicheng suspiciously.Xu Bicheng decisively pressed the phone switch, and explained to the waiter with a smile: "There is no sound, probably the phone over there is malfunctioning."

Xu Bicheng turned her head while holding the microphone, seeing that Chen Shen had entered the box, she was slightly relieved.Tang Shanhai and Xu Bicheng exchanged glances, walked to the corner, took out the knife in his pocket, and prepared to cut off the telephone line by surprise.

Unexpectedly, Liu Meina walked up to him and said, "Captain Tang, let's do a dance for your face!"

Seeing Liu Meina making a gesture of invitation to him, Tang Shanhai couldn't help looking at Xu Bicheng.Liu Meina smiled coquettishly and asked:
"What? Dance with me, and ask Bicheng for instructions?"

Tang Shanhai smiled, put the knife back into his pocket, held Liu Meina's hand and said, "Of course not."

The two then slid onto the dance floor.Although Xu Bicheng was anxious, he could only pretend to make a phone call.

After thinking about it, she dialed her own phone number.The phone was dialed, and the phone rang in the dark home, but no one answered.Xu Bicheng held the microphone and waited for a few seconds before pretending to talk, "Yes, Shanhai and I have come to Shanghai..."

Wu Long, who was still making calls over and over again, got a busy voice all the time.

In the private room, Chen Shen held up the bottle of Kvass and said to Li Moqun, "Director Li, I would like to toast you and wish you a long life."

Li Moqun suddenly said coldly: "Take the soda away. Chen Shen, if you don't toast to me today, don't even think about going out from here!"

Bi Zhongliang was startled, and glanced at Li Moqun, but there was no smile on his face, wondering if he was joking.

The atmosphere in the box was tense for a moment.

Chen Shen said lightly: "Is Director Li giving me a problem? Then I won't go out, I will roll somersault and get out."

Bi Zhongliang laughed, and under the influence of Bi Zhongliang, everyone in the box also laughed. The laughter was like mist floating on the water, a little empty.Li Moqun's face finally turned to ice, showing a hint of a smile.He looked at the crowd and said, "In the whole of No. 76, the only one who dares to respect me with soda is Chen Shen, the barber."

Bi Zhongliang looked at the laughing crowd and said, "It's mainly because Mr. Li has a lot of people."

Chen Shen echoed and said, "That's right, that is, Director Li doesn't care about me, a nobody like me. If it were someone else, I'm afraid I'd either be punished for drinking ten cups, or I'd be kicked out."

Li Moqun said with a smile: "Don't flatter me, I can tell that you are a courageous person. Even if Mr. Wang is sitting here today, you still dare to pay respects with soda. Am I right?"

Chen Shen said: "The more important people are like Director Li and Mr. Wang, the less they will care about small people like me. So why should I not dare?"

Li Moqun patted the table and said appreciatively: "Good! Zhongliang, make good use of your brother. The more he is like him who doesn't flatter and flatters, the more he can take on a great job."

Bi Zhongliang nodded repeatedly, glanced at Chen Shen with satisfaction and said, "Of course."

Liu Lanzhi, who was sitting by the side and never spoke, suddenly said: "Our Zhongliang's life was picked up by Chen Shen, and the person he trusts most is Chen Shen."

Chen Shen just smiled, then raised the kvass and drank it down at Li Moqun.He was a little worried about the situation in the banquet hall, wondering if Tang Shanhai and Xu Bicheng had resolved the phone problem.

On the dance floor, Tang Shanhai danced with Liu Meina absent-mindedly, but Liu Meina felt nervous and happy because she embraced Tang Shanhai so close.She got closer to Tang Shanhai and asked, "Captain Tang, how did you and Bicheng meet?"

Tang Shanhai was startled, and said, "Introduction from relatives."

Liu Meina continued to ask: "I guess, she liked you first, right?"

Tang Shanhai was a little surprised, "Why... you think so?"

Liu Meina's eyes lingered on Tang Shanhai's face.She smiled and said: "For a man as good as Captain Tang, there should be women around him. Look at you, you don't even know how to buy gifts for women, and you don't know how to celebrate your wedding anniversary. You don't seem to be chasing women at first sight." Experience. If the woman didn't come to your door automatically, how could you handle her? Am I right? How did Bicheng chase you?"

Tang Shanhai smiled, "Actually not, it's just that each other thinks it's suitable, and with the matching of family members, the date is set."

Liu Meina was a little disappointed, a little disbelieving, "Isn't it? I see that Bicheng is holding books all day long, and her stomach is full of little girl feelings. If there is no vigorous love, can she marry you?"

Tang Shanhai seemed to think of something when he heard the words, he couldn't help but glanced at Xu Bicheng who was holding the phone - her quiet face was slightly confused, and she was talking alone.

Xu Bicheng was almost at the end of his words and said, "Yes, the office has arranged a house. If you have a chance, you will come to Shanghai to see us..."

After Xu Bicheng finished speaking, seeing Tang Shanhai looking at him, he quickly winked, hoping that he would solve the phone line issue as soon as possible.

Wu Long couldn't make a call, so he hung up the phone angrily.What he didn't know was that he had been lucky enough to escape a catastrophe just now.The car Tao Dachun was sitting in drove past slowly, but neither Tao Dachun nor Lu Ming noticed Wu Long at the corner of the street.

It was almost nine o'clock, and the hotel staff placed a row of fireworks at the door, ready to set off the fireworks, and Biantou followed suit.In the telephone booth not far away, Wu Long saw fireworks set up in front of the hotel, and finally gave up the phone and walked quickly to the hotel entrance.

Xu Bicheng was still holding the phone and dared not put it down, and continued to pretend to chat without saying a word, but her eyes were full of complaints when she looked at Tang Shanhai.Tang Shanhai, who was still dancing with Liu Meina, felt quite helpless, Liu Meina didn't realize it, she was chatting happily with Tang Shanhai, her face was almost pressed against Tang Shanhai's.

At this moment, the door of the box opened, and Li Moqun appeared at the door of the box.He said unceremoniously to Chen Shen: "Hey, the barber, keep your word, you're going to roll over and get out."

Secretary Sun and the others in the box booed one after another, while the wives covered their mouths and laughed.Chen Shen smiled and said: "Then...Chen Shen will show his shame."
