The Prodigal Son: I Can Foresee the Future
Chapter 51
In fact, just like Zhou Chong said, whether they go to Tianhai City or not, the drama at the auto show will not change.
The main reason why Lin Ming went there in person was to take this opportunity to warm up his relationship with Chen Jia.
As for Zhou Chong's coming, what's the use of him...
Well, it should be to ease the embarrassment.
I don't know if Zhou Chong will vomit blood after hearing this.
Anyway, when Chen Jia and Xuan Xuan went downstairs, he was smiling.
"Hello, sister-in-law."
"Just call me Chen Jia."
Chen Jia felt a little awkward, after all, she and Lin Ming were divorced.
Zhou Chong said, "Sister-in-law, what you said is wrong. I am younger than you. If I call you by your name, Brother Lin will kill me."
This guy is not really stupid. He knows who Lin Ming cares about most now.
From some perspectives, it is better to flatter Chen Jia than to flatter Lin Ming.
"Hello, uncle." Xuan Xuan said crisply.
"Hahaha, hello, niece!"
Zhou Chong held Xuan Xuan and opened the trunk.
It was filled with toys and snacks, as well as several cartoon long skirts.
"Wow!"
Xuan Xuan opened her mouth wide: "Uncle, are these for me?"
"Of course, with these things, Xuan Xuan will not be bored at home in the future!" Zhou Chong laughed.
This is not flattery. He really thinks the little girl is very cute, polite and very likable.
"If I get married in the future, I must have a daughter!" Zhou Chong said.
"I don't even have a partner, isn't it too early to talk about marriage?" Lin Ming said with a smile.
"Who said I don't have a partner? Qingyao will agree to me soon." Zhou Chong said.
This surprised Lin Ming.
It seems that after what happened that night, the two are about to break the window paper.
"Brother Lin."
Zhou Chong raised his eyebrows and said meaningfully: "How about we compete to see who catches up faster?"
Hearing this, Chen Jia's delicate face suddenly blushed!
"I won't compete with you, I want to prove it with actual actions!" Lin Ming laughed.
Several people got in the car and went straight to the airport.
Chen Jia naturally knew that this was an Audi Q7.
She was very confused, why did Lin Ming get to know so many big people after the divorce?
And it seemed that they were all very polite and respectful to him.
But after all, they were divorced, so she didn't ask questions to the bottom of it.
...
Han Changyu also helped to book tickets for not only Chen Jia and Xuan Xuan, but also Lin Ming and Zhou Chong.
All of them were first class.
It was Chen Jia's first time to sit in first class, and she was amazed by both the service and the environment.
Not to mention Xuan Xuan, it was her first time to take a plane in the world, and everything she saw was new and interesting.
Zhou Chong looked at the family of three sitting there, and his mouth twitched from time to time.
He always felt that he was a big light bulb and shouldn't have come.
At 4 pm, the plane landed at Hongqiao Airport.
The one-hour journey did not make Xuan Xuan feel tired, but she looked reluctant to leave.
Chen Jia finally understood that agreeing to Lin Ming to take Xuan Xuan out was indeed a very correct choice.
Walking out of the airport, he saw someone standing in front of a Mercedes-Benz G waving at Zhou Chong from a distance.
It was a young man wearing glasses.
"Did you arrange someone to pick you up at the airport?" Lin Ming said.
"I dare not arrange this person, I didn't expect that he would come to pick us up."
Zhou Chong bumped into Lin Ming and whispered: "Xiang Ze, the son of the top leader of Tianhai City, do you want to meet him, Brother Lin?"
Lin Ming was surprised: "You know this kind of person?"
Tianhai City is not comparable to Blue Island City.
As one of the four municipalities directly under the Central Government of China, Tianhai City is equivalent to a provincial administrative region, and it is also an international economic, financial, trade, shipping, and scientific and technological innovation center.
In terms of position, Xiang Weidong, the top leader of Tianhai City, is a provincial and ministerial position, at the same level as the governor of Donglin Province.
But in terms of status, many frontier officials are not as good as Xiang Weidong.
To sum up the above, in terms of the second generation, Zhou Chong is more than one level lower than Xiang Ze, so Lin Ming is confused.
"Actually, Lord Xiang came from Donglin Province. He is one of my father's most proud disciples and has a good relationship with my father." Zhou Chong quickly gave an explanation.
Lin Ming suddenly realized: "So, you have a good relationship with Xiang Ze?"
"Not really, we've only met a few times." Zhou Chong curled his lips.
"If they are not familiar with each other, why did he come to pick us up at the airport?"
Lin Ming grasped the key point sharply.
"This..." Zhou Chong hesitated slightly.
"What does Mr. Zhou mean? Or your father? It seems that you have told them about me?"
Lin Ming's series of questions made Zhou Chong a little confused.
In Zhou Chong's opinion, Lin Ming should not want others to know his ability, especially those people in the power department, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.
Making a fortune in silence is the hard truth.
"It doesn't matter. Your father and the old man are not outsiders. I may need their help in the future. I have to get to know them." Lin Ming said.
Zhou Chong was relieved: "I can't hide the matter of that batch of red wine. As for Zijin Shengfu, my father and the old man actually knew about the development of the southern new district a long time ago, but the provincial government asked to block the news, so they didn't tell me. So when they learned that you took me to sign the deposit contract, they were shocked."
Lin Ming nodded and waited for the next part.
Zhou Chong said again: "My grandfather told me a few days ago that if you have time, he wants to meet you, but I'm afraid you won't like it, so I haven't mentioned it to you."
"The old man is the former governor of Donglin Province, and he is a good leader who is honest and upright and serves the country and the people. It is my honor to meet him. Many people want to meet him but can't. Are you afraid that I won't like it? Do you really think I'm a big shot?" Lin Ming shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Zhou Chong said solemnly: "Brother Lin, you may not be a big shot now, but I believe that you will stand at the top of the pyramid in a short time!"
"Tsk tsk, you sound like it's true, so I'll borrow your good words!" Lin Ming laughed.
Xiang Ze couldn't hear what the two said, but Chen Jia heard it clearly.
He is the former governor of Donglin Province and the top leader of Tianhai City...
Chen Jia almost suspected that she had heard it wrong!
Lin Ming is just a commoner. Even if he gets a little rich by luck, he can't become a big shot of that level, right?
Could it be that he still hasn't gotten rid of his habit of lying and bragging, and happened to meet a "like-minded" friend like Zhou Chong, so the two of them live in a dream world?
Chen Jia really thought so in her heart.
But thinking of the Q7 that Zhou Chong drove, Han Changyu's attitude towards her, and the Mercedes-Benz G that Xiang Ze drove...
Chen Jia always felt that the man who once made her fall into despair seemed to have really changed dramatically.
Before she could think too much, Xiang Ze's teasing voice came from the front.
"Mr. Zhou's presence has really made Tianhai City shine!"
Zhou Chong said speechlessly: "If I can make Tianhai City shine, then you, Mr. Xiang, can make Landao City shine."
"Just a joke, you always talk to death."
Xiang Ze looked at Lin Ming: "Who is this?"
"Brother Lin." Zhou Chong said.
Xiang Ze chuckled: "Brother Lin? He has no name? Or is his name 'Brother Lin'?"
Hearing this, Zhou Chong frowned.
Xiang Ze seemed unhappy?
"My name is Lin Ming." Lin Ming spoke at the right time.
Zhou Chong said: "Brother Lin's position in my heart is no lower than that of my father and the old man. We are about the same age, so you won't lose out by calling him 'Brother Lin'."
"Zhou Chong, we don't have much contact, but you know me. Someone who can make you call him 'brother' may not be qualified for me to call him 'brother', understand?"
Xiang Ze shook his head gently, his cold and arrogant expression was obvious.
On the other hand, Zhou Chong's face sank!
He knew better than anyone that if he came alone, the old man would definitely not tell Xiang Weidong, and Xiang Weidong would not let Xiang Ze come to pick him up.
There was only one reason why Xiang Ze could stand here, and that was Lin Ming was here!
It can be seen from this that even if the old man and Zhou Mingli had never met Lin Ming, they still cared about Lin Ming very much after experiencing what happened to Zhou Chong.
This can also be regarded as an invisible way of making friends for Zhou Chong.
But what Zhou Chong didn't expect was that Xiang Ze was so impolite in front of Lin Ming.
Didn't Mr. Xiang really remind him?
Or did the old man not tell Mr. Xiang about Lin Ming?
The atmosphere was originally quite good, but it suddenly became awkward here.
Xiang Ze said again: "Although my father asked me to pick you up, I am not an idler, but a businessman. You must know better than me that for a businessman, time is money. If you can't give me a reason to let you get in the car today, then I'm sorry, I can only go by myself."
Lin Ming and Zhou Chong looked at each other.
He
They finally understood that Xiang Ze was full of resentment, so he spoke in a weird tone at the beginning.
What they didn't know was that Xiang Weidong didn't really tell Xiang Ze who to pick up, but just notified Xiang Ze temporarily and asked him to rush to the airport as soon as possible.
Originally, Xiang Ze was busy preparing for the simultaneous opening of three Mercedes-Benz 4S stores tomorrow, but he didn't dare to disobey his father's order, so he could only rush here.
But when he saw that the person he was going to pick up was Zhou Chong, he was immediately unhappy.
I thought he was some big shot who made me so anxious.
So it turned out to be such a thing!
What qualifications did Zhou Chong have to let him pick him up? Can't he just find someone? Just because he is the grandson of Mr. Zhou?
Father is making a fuss too much!
Xiang Ze and Zhou Chong were not very familiar with each other, and there was a gap between the two of them. Zhou Chong's business was not as big as Xiang Ze's, so Xiang Ze didn't look down on Zhou Chong from the bottom of his heart.
When talking, naturally he was not so polite.
"Xiang Ze, you are a bit too much, aren't you?" Zhou Chong looked grim.
"I don't think I am too much. Everything should be equal. You don't understand such a simple truth?" Xiang Ze sneered.
What kind of temper does Zhou Chong have?
He was about to start scolding, but Lin Ming grabbed his arm.
"Why, you also think I am too much?" Xiang Ze looked up and down at Lin Ming.
Lin Ming smiled slightly: "Three Mercedes-Benz 4S stores will open at the same time tomorrow?"
Xiang Ze's expression froze!
He immediately asked: "How do you know?"
"You don't have to worry about how I know, but you are right. Even if we don't take your car today, we can't let you go in vain."
Lin Ming paused slightly, and then continued: "The one in Xiongtian District, don't set off fireworks tomorrow, it will burn you!"
After speaking, Lin Ming patted Xiang Ze's shoulder and walked forward.
Xiang Ze frowned, not understanding what Lin Ming meant.
Zhou Chong was delighted.
He believed that Lin Ming would not speak without a purpose.
"Xiang Ze, do you think that Lord Xiang asked you to come in person just to pick me up? Why don't you use your brain to think about it? I know your identity, so why do I ask you to call him 'Brother Lin'?"
Zhou Chong snorted coldly: "I know you are arrogant, but you should be arrogant in the right place. Brother Lin repays evil with kindness and points out this crisis to you. You'd better take it seriously and don't let it go in one ear and out the other! When that time comes, it will be too late to regret!"
