CapĂtulo 1929: Chapter 1827: Disunity_4
âThen what does he want to do?â
âHelp him do the work, like demolition and security.â
âIsnât that your duty?â
âItâs different when he has dirt on me, whatever he says I have to listen to him.â Qiao Yutong replied.
âAlright, donât worry, itâs okay. It seems like he wants to exploit you, not send you to prison, thatâs good then. If heâs got dirt on you, I will find dirt on him, wonât that solve it? Alright, donât worry, I will handle it.â
âHmmâŠâ
Song Xiaodong then hung up the phone.
âOh, âIâll handle it.'â Chu Xianling mimicked Song Xiaodongâs speech with a pout.
âIâve noticed youâre quite attentive to Director Qiao, any progress?â Chu Xianling asked.
âNo progress, hey, why are you so nosyâŠâ Song Xiaodong smiled bitterly at Chu Xianling.
âYouâre calling me nosy, I gossip because I love you, others I couldnât care less.â Chu Xianling turned around, ignoring Song Xiaodong.
âAlright, alright, I get it, I get it.â
âHmph, your attitude.â
âHey, Iâve always wanted to ask, do you still have contact with your Teacher Wang?â Chu Xianling asked again.
âTeacher WangâŠâ Song Xiaodongâs thoughts returned to when he studied with Teacher Wang, remembering her figure.
âNo contact anymore.â
âOh, what a shame, otherwise, maybe when I go back to see my grandpa, you could come with me to rekindle that old flame?â Chu Xianling asked Song Xiaodong.
âWhy are you so actively setting me up with someone, arenât you afraid Iâll neglect you?â Song Xiaodong smiled at Chu Xianling.
âTch, Iâm confident in myself.â
As they were talking, their car arrived at the exhibition hall of the ceramic art exchange.
Just as they got out of the car, they saw a group of people surrounding someone approaching. Song Xiaodong recognized him as Zhang Dongfang, the Overseas Chinese who sat with Vice Mayor Han the other day when they stormed the construction passage.
Song Xiaodong looked at Zhang Dongfang, suddenly had an idea, and pulled Chu Xianling forward to join them.
There were guards at the door, but Zhang Dongfang and his entourage naturally passed through unhindered.
âOh, havenât seen an Overseas Chinese before, a whole entourage like lackeys.â Song Xiaodong sarcastically remarked as he approached.
Chu Xianling wasnât sure what was going on but knew that Song Xiaodong must have a reason for doing so, so she held onto Song Xiaodongâs arm without saying a word.
Song Xiaodong spoke loudly, and Zhang Dongfang heard it clearly. Originally smiling, upon hearing the sarcasm, his expression suddenly became serious, and he turned his head to stare at Song Xiaodong.
âWhat did you say?â The Overseas Chinese spoke fluent Mandarin with an accent.
It seems this Overseas Chineseâs heritage is not pure, truly pure Overseas Chinese would speak English and pretend to be unfamiliar with Mandarin.
âIâm talking about those lackeys around you, seeing an Overseas Chinese they donât know how to suck up.â Song Xiaodong countered Zhang Dongfang.
Following Zhang Dongfang were a group of startup small bosses, all hoping to cling to Zhang Dongfangâs leg, many of whom recognized Mingheâs local influence Song Xiaodong.
âOh, isnât this Mr. Song!â
âYes, itâs Mr. Song!â
âMr. Song is interested in ceramics too?â
âNo, no, no, Iâm accompanying the wife.â Song Xiaodong said as he looked at Chu Xianling next to him.
Chu Xianling politely bowed to the small bosses.
The group all gazed at Chu Xianling, as beautiful and refined as a Fairy, their eyes somewhat fixated.
âNo wonder, I was puzzled why Vice Mayor Han invited so many people but didnât notify our Mr. Song.â
Suddenly, half of the people following Zhang Dongfang were taken by Song Xiaodong.
The two groups faced off like street gangs, tension in the air.
âMr. Zhang, Mr. Song, letâs go inside!â Finally, someone couldnât stand it, stepped out to mediate.
âAlright, letâs go inside. Most of the nationâs friends are very warm and welcoming, just ignore a few bad apples. Letâs move.â Zhang Dongfang, having been abroad for many years, handled this saying quite efficiently.
âHmph, an Overseas Chinese, rebuilding the motherland is your duty, yet people are begging you with open arms like youâre a traitor!â Song Xiaodong retorted sharp-tongued.
âYou!â Zhang Dongfang glared at Song Xiaodong.
âOh Mr. Zhang, donât be angry, please come in.â Xu, Han Yangâs secretary, saw things werenât quite right and hurriedly ushered Zhang Dongfang inside.
Chapter 1830: Purchase
Zhang Dongfang went inside, turned around, refusing to leave.
Song Xiaodong and Sun Yiyi wanted to enter but were stopped by the security.
âI am your Vice Mayor Han Yangâs esteemed guest. Officials and business leaders large and small in Minghe are waiting for my investment. Is this ceramics exchange event a place for someone as disrespectful as you?â Zhang Dongfang looked at Song Xiaodong unable to enter, smirked triumphantly, gave him the finger, and continued jovial conversations inside with his group.
âSong Xiaodong!â Song Xiaodong announced his name, and the two guards quickly stepped back.
Song Xiaodong also walked inside, followed by a group of small bosses.
âWho let him in? Heâs not on Mayor Hanâs guest list, please have the staff escort him out.â Zhang Dongfang said to his accompanying personnel.
âUhâŠâ The people around showed some difficulty.
âWhatâs the matter? None of you want to do business with me?â Zhang Dongfang threatened these small bosses.
The crowd looked somewhat uneasy but still dared not make a move.
âWhy, is it that you, an Overseas Chinese returning to your homeland, canât even tolerate me, a descendant of Yan and Huang?â Song Xiaodong taunted Zhang Dongfang.
