Chapter 36 - 36: Banquet

Yang Tao listened carefully. He had a good memory now. As long as he remembered it carefully, he would not forget it. Moreover, his mind was faster than before. Many words and things that he could not understand before, but Xu Ruyan often reminded him, and he immediately understood.

When the car arrived at Junyue Hotel, Xu Ruyan stopped. Yang Tao quickly opened the mineral water in the car and handed it to Xu Ruyan.

He felt that if he could help many people change their original fate and become the noble person in others' lives, he would be the noble person in his life.

Xu Ruyan took Yang Tao's hand and entered Junyue Hotel. Zhang Jiancheng had been waiting for them at the door. When he saw them, he ran to greet them.

"Master Yang, beautiful Xu, you have waited for me." Zhang Jiancheng said kindly.

"Brother Zhang, you can call me Xiao Tao or Yang Tao just like Sister Ruyan. We don't need to be so distant now." Yang Tao smiled.

Xu Ruyan chuckled and said, "Yes, Mr. Zhang, you have helped Xiao Tao so much, it's not too much to call him by his name."

"Then I'll be disrespectful." Zhang Jiancheng was not modest and changed his words immediately.

"I'll take you in." Zhang Jiancheng led the way and whispered, "Xiao Tao, Mr. Xu, thanks to you this time, I was just tentatively calling Director He to ask if he would come to dinner."

"In the end, Director He asked me if Xiao Tao and Mr. Xu would come, and I said yes, but I didn't expect Director He to agree. Originally, Director He's status was different, so he shouldn't have dinner at Junyue, but today I'm mainly inviting Xiao Tao, so I decided to go to Junyue. Xiao Tao is okay, right?"

Yang Tao smiled slightly, "Don't say Junyue, even if it's a roadside stall, Brother Zhang invites me to dinner, I have to say it."

Yang Tao knew that Zhang Jiancheng said this because of what happened yesterday.

"Next time you go to my house, let your sister-in-law cook a few side dishes, and we two brothers can have a few drinks." Zhang Jiancheng smiled.

"Coming with Director Zhu is Director Gao Jinyan, the deputy director of our Tianxin District Police Station. After arriving, he was very interested in you, Xiao Tao, and kept asking Director He about your situation."

Although he is a deputy director of a district, his administrative level is also a scientific and technological cadre, similar to Director He. If he can be promoted to the director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, he will be a department-level cadre.

Although he is only a deputy director of a district, he still has considerable power in a unit like the Public Security Bureau.

"In addition, I also invited Mr. Fu Heng of Jiaheng Real Estate and Mr. Liu of Four Seasons Group. They are all CEOs who are very interested in divination and fortune-telling."

Listening to Zhang Jiancheng's introduction one by one, although there are only a few people, it is not easy for people to accompany Zhang Jiancheng to meet Yang Tao now. You can imagine how much effort Zhang Jiancheng has put in.

Although Yang Tao has never heard of or seen these people, these groups are several well-known large groups in Hunan Province.

"Brother Zhang, I will definitely keep what you do in my heart." Yang Tao said sincerely. Zhang Jiancheng laughed and patted Yang Tao on the shoulder, "Let's not be so polite, brothers."

Then his face darkened slightly, and he continued, "Boss Liu and Wu Dezhi are good friends. Yesterday, Wu Dezhi thought he had climbed up to Lin Zhenhai's high branch, and this time he was so thick-skinned that he asked Boss Liu to bring him here."

Yang Tao's face turned cold, and then he said indifferently, "It doesn't matter. He won't be able to jump around for a few days. The result will be known naturally in nine days."

Yang Tao suddenly wanted to help people do more things to change their fate, so that his vitality would be strengthened, and he could detonate the fortune that others had buried in advance.

Xu Ruyan's face turned cold when she heard this, and a trace of anger flashed in her eyes.

Zhang Jiancheng was waiting for the two in the hall in advance, and it was also because Wu Dezhi came uninvited and told Yang Tao in advance, so that the two would not find Wu Dezhi there when they went in, and Yang Tao would not have any misunderstandings about him at that time.

The three of them talked and soon came to the private room.

Zhang Jiancheng pushed open the door, and Yang Tao and Xu Ruyan followed suit, and immediately heard the sound of the chair rubbing against the carpet.

Everyone stood up to greet him. Yang Tao found that in addition to the five men and Wu Dezhi introduced by Zhang Jiancheng, there were two women in the room.

Yang Tao carefully found that Director He Zhiwei stood up the fastest, followed by the other three men. Wu Dezhi and the two women were slow.

The seats on Director He's left were all empty. On his right stood a middle-aged man who was imposing without anger but with a warm smile. Next to this man was a fat middle-aged man with a kind and friendly smile. Next to him was a tall and thin middle-aged man with a gloomy face.

After that was Wu Dezhi. Wu Dezhi had a hint of sarcasm on his lips. They were all upper-class people, so how could he have the nerve to come here.

Next to Wu Dezhi stood a woman dressed up in a flashy way, with heavy makeup on. From time to time, a hint of charm flashed in her eyes. She was very close to Wu Dezhi. She was either a lover or a secretary.

It was the woman next to the flamboyant woman that Yang Tao couldn't help but take a few more glances at. Although she was wearing a more mature light makeup, she still concealed the immaturity between her eyebrows. She looked like a college student who was still studying.

She had delicate features, a thin and small face, a pure face, hair just over her shoulders, and a pair of glasses with platinum frames on her face, which exuded a strong bookish air. She was not a very beautiful woman, but the more you looked at her, the more you liked her. Her face was cold and arrogant, as if she didn't care about anyone present.

Perhaps she knew Yang Tao's identity in advance, or something Wood said, the girl had a strong disdain for Yang Tao on her face.

Because the table was round, the closer you were to the inside, the higher your status was. The girl's seat was closest to the door, so Yang Tao could still see some of her figure from the side.

White shirt, black suit pants, black high heels, high bulge on the chest, through the gap between the buttons of the shirt, you can still see a little white soft flesh and a white bra inside.

If breasts and eyes are one of the biggest highlights of this girl, then her butt is the shining focus. Suit pants are loose, and no matter who wears them, it is difficult to outline a person's figure. But have you ever seen suit pants worn like tights?

The fat ass stretched the loose suit pants so tight that it seemed to burst. Yang Tao had never seen such a fat ass. Even Tang Lan, who he saw at noon today, was not as big as the ass of the girl in front of him. 

Moreover, this girl looked very young. She had such a fat ass at such a young age. What would happen when she got married and had children? 

It really opened Yang Tao's eyes. He had never seen such an exaggerated ass. It was a little abnormal. It can only be said that it was a natural beauty. "Master Yang, Xiao Xu, we have been waiting for a long time. Finally, you are here." He Zhiwei smiled and invited Yang Tao to take a seat. Yang Tao calmly walked to He Zhiwei and sat down. 

Xu Ruyan sat next to Yang Tao. Then Zhang Jiancheng sat next to Xu Ruyan and smiled, "Director He, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. The traffic was really too congested. You know, in Changsha, cars are all out at the end of the working day."

The other people watched Yang Tao walk to He Zhiwei and sit down. They couldn't help but look at Yang Tao a few more times. Although what happened in Junyue Hotel yesterday had spread throughout the high-level circles in Changsha, many people had only heard of him.

They only thought that Yang Tao was an arrogant young man. The two businessmen present were both good friends of Zhang Jiancheng. After Zhang Jiancheng's vivid publicity, they had a deeper impression of Yang Tao.

They thought that Yang Tao was a capable and arrogant young man. Now that they saw him, they finally felt the confidence from the inside out of Yang Tao and couldn't help but look up to him again in their hearts.

The fat man next to Director Gao Jinyan laughed, and the flesh on his face trembled a few times, "Master Yang is right, this Changsha, everything is good, there are many beautiful women, many delicious foods, but the traffic is too congested during rush hour, I always leave the company an hour earlier or later."

Someone talked to him, and Zhang Jiancheng introduced him: "This is Mr. Fu Heng of Jiaheng Real Estate, Mr. Fu, and this is Master Yang Tao, an absolute strange man."

"Brother Zhang, please don't flatter me so much, I will become a charlatan by then." Yang Tao waved his hand hurriedly. He sat down calmly just now because he had the ability, but since everyone was carrying the sedan chair, he had to show his attitude, "Mr. Fu is right, so I am late today and kept everyone waiting."

People can't float all the time.

Everyone laughed. Gao Jinyan, who was sitting next to He Zhiwei, said, "Master Yang is very modest. We all know what happened in Junyue yesterday. Even Lin Zhenhai's face turned black. He kicked one of his expensive bodyguards down. Even if he is a charlatan, he is a real charlatan." Zhang Jiancheng introduced him again. 

Yang Tao nodded and said, "Director Gao, you are too polite. I am young and can't speak. I am just so capable. I saw something I shouldn't see, so I was afraid." 

"Master Yang, I don't know what you saw and why you reacted like that at that time?" Fu Heng asked curiously. Xu Ruyan knew what Yang Tao saw best, and Zhang Jiancheng only had a vague understanding. In fact, many people were very curious. Hearing this, everyone focused their attention on Yang Tao, full of curiosity, and Wu Dezhi was the most looking forward to it. Yang Tao pondered for a moment and said concisely: "Within a year, there will be a big problem."

Everyone looked at each other and was shocked. Except for Director He, Xu Ruyan and Zhang Jiancheng, Director Gao's eyes flashed with a trace of inquiry, and General Manager Fu and General Manager Liu, who had been silent, showed a trace of suspicion in their eyes, but they were well hidden.

Zhang Jiancheng said immediately: "Master Yang is definitely right. I stand firmly on Master Yang's side."

Wu Dezhi laughed when he heard it, but did not speak.

Xu Ruyan, who had been silent since she came in from outside, stared at Wu Dezhi with her phoenix eyes.

Whenever she was outside with Yang Tao, Xu Ruyan rarely spoke and left the main field to Yang Tao. Whether she did something wrong or right, she rarely reminded him, and only told Yang Tao what he did wrong and what he said wrong afterwards.

Xu Ruyan said coldly: "Wu Dezhi, if it wasn't for you yesterday, Xiao Tao wouldn't have had a conflict with Lin Zhenhai. If you come here today and don't say anything, I will treat you as if you don't exist. If you dare to provoke me again, don't blame me for being rude to you, go back to Xu's house to find someone!"

Xu Ruyan leaned forward slightly and protected Yang Tao behind her, like a hen protecting her chicks.

Everyone present knew who Xu Ruyan was and what her background was, otherwise He Zhiwei wouldn't have taken such good care of her when she first came to Changsha, and Xu Ruyan usually treated people in a friendly manner and rarely got angry in public.

This time, she said such words, it seems that she was really angry.

Wu Dezhi snorted and explained awkwardly: "I came here this time to get to know Master Yang again. As the saying goes, there is no acquaintance without fighting, otherwise I wouldn't have come here with such a thick skin."

"Forget it, Xiao Tao doesn't need to know you. You are here, as long as you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb."

Xu Ruyan snorted.

Seeing Xu Ruyan say this, Wu Dezhi's face was gloomy, but he didn't dare to be presumptuous, and said: "I really came with a sincere heart. My secretary happened to be restless these days, and I want to ask Master Yang to tell my fortune. Master Yang said before that he would pay 100,000 yuan for his hard work if his words solved the problem. As long as Master Yang helps my secretary, even if there is no problem, I am willing to pay 50,000 yuan for consulting."

Everyone looked at each other after hearing this, thought for a while, and each showed a hint of understanding. Mr. Liu, who was brought by Wu Dezhi, frowned and looked at Wu Dezhi, his face was a little ugly.

"Wu Dezhi, you want to reconcile with Xiao Tao, and then find an opportunity to stab Xiao Tao as your gift to Lin Zhenhai." Others saw through it but didn't say anything. Zhang Jiancheng didn't have time to remind him, but Xu Ruyan said it immediately.

"Mr. Xu misunderstood, I really want to reconcile." Wu Dezhi said sincerely. Yang Tao patted Xu Ruyan's legs under the table. Xu Ruyan, who was about to speak, immediately stopped talking and cast a puzzled look at Yang Tao. Yang Tao gave Xu Ruyan a reassuring look in return.

Although Yang Tao didn't understand what Wu Dezhi was planning at first, if he still didn't understand after being reminded by Xu Ruyan, he would be a fool. However, since someone gave him money, why didn't he accept it? It's not like he would forgive Wu Dezhi after he said it.

"Since Mr. Wu is willing to reconcile and is sincere, I, Yang Tao, am not a stingy person. I will help Mr. Wu's secretary to tell fortunes." Yang Tao smiled lightly.

Everyone took in the eye contact between Xu Ruyan and Yang Tao, and showed an attitude of watching a good show.

Wu Dezhi naturally saw the eye contact between the two, but the words had been said. Even if Yang Tao had some bad ideas, he could only bite the bullet and move forward.

"Master Yang is generous. I like to make friends with generous people." Wu Dezhi praised immediately.

"I am the same. Since Mr. Wu said that the consulting fee is 50,000 yuan regardless of success or failure, I will pay it first." He opened the WeChat payment code and said to everyone, "I am poor. I grew up eating steamed buns. I can't bear to see money slip away from my eyes. I'm sorry to make you laugh." 

If there were no last sentence, everyone would think that Yang Tao was a person who was greedy for money, but with this sentence, they just thought that Yang Tao was a very interesting young man. Wu Dezhi's face darkened. 50,000 yuan was a piece of cake for him, but Yang Tao didn't trust him so much that he looked very unhappy. Being stared at by everyone, Wu Dezhi just said it himself. He bit the bullet and scanned the code to pay. 

Hearing a ding, Yang Tao laughed and put the phone aside. "Okay, Mr. Wu is really generous. I don't know what your secretary is." Wu Dezhi had a dark face and made a color to his secretary. The heavily made-up secretary immediately expressed her understanding, threw a coquettish eye at Yang Tao, and said delicately: "Master Yang, our General Manager Wu said that you are so good at telling fortunes, and there is nothing you can't tell. My family has been urging me to get married recently, and I also want to tell where my ideal husband is."

When asked in such a delicate tone, Yang Tao shuddered, "Speak more normally, I can't stand it."

"That's how people talk, Master Yang, why don't we have a drink before you tell fortunes, I'm dying of thirst."

"How do you want to drink?"

"White wine, I can't drink beer, my stomach is too small."

"How much do you want to drink."

"How about this cup, three cups per person." The secretary raised the wine dispenser, which held about 250 grams of white wine.

Xu Ruyan pressed Yang Tao's hand and shook her head slightly.

"It's okay, you forgot that I have internal skills, which can help me sober up." Yang Tao whispered.

Xu Ruyan was relieved.

The secretary took out two bottles of Wuliangye and began to pour the wine. After pouring, she gave Yang Tao three cups. She had been in the drinking world for a long time, and she would feel uncomfortable after drinking these three cups at once. She didn't believe that the young man in front of her was fine.

Everyone knew that the secretary was looking for an opportunity to deliberately make Yang Tao look bad.

Yang Tao put the three cups of wine in front of him without changing his expression, "Drink it in one gulp?"

"Of course, Master Yang, I'll drink it first as a sign of respect." He took the cup with both hands and drank it all. After that, he didn't stop and drank two more cups in a row. His eyes were clear, but his face was a little distorted.

Yang Tao smiled faintly, picked up the cup and drank it all. Since he drank dozens of bottles of beer in KTV last time, Yang Tao knew that his current alcohol tolerance was already extraordinary, and his vitality was fed back again, so he must be able to drink even better.

After drinking three cups in a row, except for a little burning in his stomach, Yang Tao didn't feel anything abnormal, just like drinking three cups of water.

"Good alcohol tolerance!" Gao Jinyan's eyes lit up. He loved alcohol the most, and he was most excited when he met someone who could drink well.

The secretary covered her mouth and took a breath, "Master Yang has a really good alcohol tolerance. Why don't we drink three more cups?"

"It's boring to drink like this. Let's just drink three catties each until we finish it." Yang Tao waved his hand and said directly.

The secretary's face changed, and he looked down at Wu Dezhi, who shook his head slightly.

"Oh, Master Yang is really joking. How can you drink like this? Why don't you help me calculate it, Master Yang?"

"Haha, okay."

He looked at the secretary's fortune, especially his love luck. After reading it, he showed a strange smile and looked at Wu Dezhi.

"You asked about marriage, but I think you have good luck in love, and your sex life seems to be quite harmonious." Yang Tao smiled lightly.

The secretary's face flushed immediately, and she glanced at Wu Dezhi shyly.

Fu Heng laughed and said, "Master Yang, you can tell my sex life by fortune telling. Show me how my sex life is."

"Haha, it's nothing." Yang Tao said.

There were only three women present. The secretary was shameless. Xu Ruyan glanced at Yang Tao. The girl sitting at the edge glanced at Yang Tao with some disdain on her face.

"Oh, Master Yang knows this. It's really embarrassing." The secretary said angrily, "Then when can I get married?"

"It's useless to ask me this. You have to ask the two men who had sex with you three days ago who is willing to marry you." Yang Tao laughed and then looked at Wu Dezhi, "Mr. Wu, don't worry, you are not one of the two.
