Chapter 201 - Here Comes a Man
Xue Yuning's mother knelt down, instantly causing everyone in the room to be shocked.
Jiang Hao hurriedly got up and looked over with a surprised face, Xue Yuning was also full of concern, and after seeing her mother kneel down, her tears also instantly bounced out, rushing directly to her mother's side and wanting to help her up.
However, no matter how Xue Yuning pulled her mother, she struggled to kneel on the ground as if she had died.
"Mom, if you have something to say, get up and say it, what are you doing?" Xue Yu Ning said anxiously.
Xue Yu Ning's mother cried and shook her head, "No, if they don't stay today, I'll stay on my knees! Second sister-in-law, I beg you, please stay, I am truly begging you, I have already done enough wrong to my second brother back then, I I can't"
Xue Yu Ning's mother continued to choke up before she could finish her words.
And seeing her mother in this state, Xue Yuning seemed to have thought of something from the past and also cried along with her.
Seeing this, Jiang Hao was somewhat curious about what had happened to them in the past, and also felt even more difficult about the matter.
And as Xue Yu Ning's mother mentioned the past, Wang Li also seemed to think of the past, and tears were welling up in her eyes.
She slightly tilted her head to the side, as if she did not want to be seen wiping her tears.
At this moment, Wang Li also seemed to have some hesitation in her heart, and surprisingly, she did not scramble to go out.
Jiang Hao glanced at Xue Yu Ning's mother, the old man was crying very sadly, and Jiang Hao was not too comfortable in his heart.
He knew that if this family of three, Wang Li, really left today, then looking back Xue Yu Ning's mother might really hold her regrets for a long time.
Perhaps people really had bitter feelings!
Jiang Hao sighed as he looked at Xue Yu Ning and then at Wang Li's family of three, and although he was a little hesitant, he said, "Forget it, it's over, let's all stay and eat!"
Jiang Hao this was already considered to give the other party a great deal of forgiveness, and he was not nearly as relieved.
Now that he had done all that he should and could do, if the other party still didn't appreciate it, then Jiang Hao couldn't do anything about it.
And hearing Jiang Hao's words, Xue Yu Ning's mother hurriedly wiped her tears and squeezed out a smile, "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, look, Jiang Hao has said so, you guys don't think too much about it, stay, okay?"
Wang Li looked at Xue Yu Ning's mother and was somewhat moved in her heart.
She then looked at the twelve sumptuous dishes on the table and also felt a little pity.
"Daughter, why don't we just stay, you see your aunt has said so." Wang Li said, "Look, people are on their knees begging you."
Fan Deng also seemed to see that things were turning around and hurriedly advised, "Yes, yes, look at your aunt, let's forgive them this time."
The steps were almost this high, and of course Cousin Xue Yuning could see that the possibility of expecting Jiang Hao to give herself any more steps was basically nil.
But she still took some gestures and looked at Xue Yuning's mother on the ground, "And, I tell you, if it wasn't for your pleading today, I would definitely have left, you guys, be nicer to me in the future, otherwise I really won't spoil you!"
After saying that, cousin Xue Yu Ning glared viciously at Jiang Hao and returned to her seat with a huff.
And seeing this, Fan Deng also hurriedly followed him back.
Wang Li looked at Xue Yu Ning's mother awkwardly, seemingly wanting to pick her up, but seemingly afraid of something, she hurriedly withdrew her hand and said, "That's okay, don't cry and cry, how old are you, hurry up, I'm starving to death, hurry up and eat"
Xue Yuning's mother was even happier than the New Year, she nodded heavily and got up from the ground, "Okay, okay, I'll get up, I'll get up. Sister-in-law, please sit down, let's eat, let's eat now."
At last, Xue Yu Ning's mother was very happy to have kept the man.
However, Jiang Hao was not in a really good mood.
This whole afternoon today, from the moment he saw these three people, he was very unhappy.
What made Jiang Hao even more furious was why Xue Yuning's mother had to be so spoiled with these three people.
What's wrong with relatives, you don't treat me like a human being, why should I spoil you?
And kneel down?
The moment Xue Yu Ning's mother knelt down to Wang Li, Jiang Hao's scalp was about to explode, he somewhat dared not imagine that there was such a thing.
Originally, Jiang Hao felt that his past self was already very weak and bullyable, but that still seemed to be a far cry from Xue Yu Ning's mother.
Jiang Hao sighed and beckoned for Xue Yu Ning to sit down, then gave her a piece of meat and vegetables.
He was already very unhappy, so naturally he couldn't treat Xue Yu Ning any worse.
The three people opposite him, after taking their seats, also started eating without saying a word.
The atmosphere in the private room was a little strange, all six people were eating with their heads buried, and none of them opened their mouths to say anything during the time.
Xue Yu Ning's mother was about to say something to diffuse the awkward atmosphere at the meal, but she looked at Jiang Hao and swallowed her words back.
She knew that she was simply too sorry for Jiang Hao today
And just then, the door of the private room was knocked again, Jiang Hao shouted please come in, and then a familiar figure walked in
Chapter 202 - Delivering Wine
When Jiang Hao saw the visitor, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, because this person was no other than Qiao Dong.
Qiao Dong's leg had not yet healed, so he walked with a limp, but even so, his face was still full of smiles.
Jiang Hao and Xue Yu Ning both recognised Qiao Dong, but the other four people didn't know who this was, and when they saw him coming uninvited, they all frowned.
"Who are you you looking for?" Cousin Xue Yu Ning opened her mouth to interrogate.
Qiao Dong looked at Jiang Hao and smiled as he spoke, "Excuse me everyone, a few of you may not know me yet, let me introduce myself, my humble self Qiao Dong, the chairman of this Howlite Hotel, is my father!"
As soon as Qiao Dong said this, the three members of Wang Li's family all took a breath of cold air!
This guy was actually the eldest son of the Grand Hyatt Hotel? This was too surprising.
But what the three people were even more stunned about was, what was Qiao Dong doing here?
And soon, these three people noticed an exquisite wine box that Qiao Dong was holding in his hand.
The wine case was beautifully crafted, with a long, thin red colour, and it looked as if it could hold just the right amount of wine.
The wine case was antique in appearance and had been treasured for many years.
When they heard Qiao Dong announce himself, cousin Xue Yu Ning and Wang Li hurriedly stood up, originally as if nothing was wrong, but this time their attitude immediately became several times more respectful.
"Hello, hello!" Fan Deng was quick with his eyes and hands, and hurriedly extended his hand and warmly greeted him, "Young Qiao, hello, hello, it's such an honour to meet you!"
"You're really," Xue Yu Ning's cousin looked a bit overwhelmed when she saw Qiao Dong and stammered, "Aiya, I can't believe we've surprised you by having a meal, please sit down."
Qiao Dong looked at Jiang Hao, who never said a word, so of course he didn't dare to sit down.
He had also heard from his own old man that Jiang Hao was entertaining his relatives here today, so he had come over to have a look and intended to drop off a bottle of good wine by the way.
"Er no no no, haha, I just heard that a few of you had come all the way over today, so I came to say hello, I hope I didn't disturb you." Qiao Dong said with a smile.
"No, no, how can your visit be a disturbance? We are fortunate to be here," said Fan Dong, hastily taking out his cigarettes and handing them over, "Mr. Qiao, have a cigarette, although I'm not surprised."
Qiao Dong hurriedly brushed it off, "Where where, I don't smoke, I'm really sorry, but since you're so polite, I'd better take it."
While accepting the cigarette, Qiao Dong did not forget to look at Jiang Hao, as if he was afraid that Jiang Hao would disagree.
However, Jiang Hao did not react, which reassured Qiao Dong a lot.
He hurriedly added, "Actually, I came over, it's not a big deal, I just came to deliver a bottle of wine to cheer everyone up." As Qiaodong spoke, he placed the wine case on the table.
He then said, "This red wine is an original French dry red, it's 86 years old and sunken, it's very precious, I also bought it from a friend abroad before, the original price is more than 180,000, there's really no more wine, just this bottle, you guys don't mind too little ah"
Once they heard that this bottle of wine actually cost 180,000, the few people present, except Jiang Hao and Xue Yuning, were almost all dumbstruck.
Cousin Xue Yuning's gaze was even fixed dead on the red wine.
Today, she knew what the world of the rich meant, she couldn't imagine.
This damned bottle of wine was worth half a house for her own family?
Wang Li on the side was even more astonished, she had thought that this was all she had today, but she had never thought that she would be lucky enough to see such an expensive wine today, she was really surprised.
At most, she had only seen a few hundred dollars of red wine, which was already a luxury for her.
But this bottle of wine in front of her was worth 180,000, what kind of taste did it have to be!
Seeing that these few people were so surprised, Qiao Dong couldn't help but smile and hurriedly continued, "Then that's it then, I'll leave the wine here, you all take your time and eat, I still have some business to attend to, so I won't be a nuisance."
Having said that, Qiao Dong nodded his head slightly at Jiang Hao and slowly walked out of the private room.
"Mr. Qiao, don't rush off, just sit down for a little longer!" Fan Deng hurriedly chased after him and tried to retain him.
Although he didn't know what Qiao Dong was doing by suddenly coming over to deliver the wine, it was obvious that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for such a big person to take the initiative to deliver something to himself.
He took this opportunity to improve the distance between him and the other party, and preferably to leave a phone number for each other, in which case he would really have made the trip worthwhile.
But Qiaodong seemed to leave as if he was afraid of something, waving his hand repeatedly, looking very hasty.
Obviously the crowd did not know that the reason Qiao Dong was so hurried was simply because he was afraid of Jiang Hao.
He had delivered the wine uninvited, and there was no telling if Jiang Hao would be angry, and if he lingered a little longer, it was estimated that he would definitely be unhappy.
The last time he had provoked Jiang Hao, he had ruined his own leg, so Qiao Dong would not dare not grow a memory.
Chapter 203 - The water rises to the top of the boat
Qiao Dong's arrival was just a small interlude, but it made the anger in the private room come alive again.
Especially cousin Xue Yu Ning, who almost didn't jump up in excitement when she saw Qiao Dong leave.
"Hubby hubby, did you see that, the young master of the other Howlite Hotel has personally come to give us a toast!" Cousin Xue Yu Ning's eyes were glowing as she picked up the red wine on the table and said excitedly, "180,000 a bottle, it's so extravagant!"
Wang Li at the side was also excited and hurriedly urged, "Yes, yes, in all my years of life, your mother and I have never seen a bottle of wine for 180,000.
Wang Li was a little impatient.
In her opinion, although she had not had the 1.2 million set meal before, this matter would definitely be laughed at.
But if she could use this 180,000 bottle of red wine to pretend, then she could probably save some face.
So Wang Li couldn't wait for Fan Deng to open the wine.
However, her proposal was directly rejected by cousin Xue Yuning, who also gave her mother a fierce blank look.
"Come on you, don't see the look of knowledge, what then hurry to open ah, this red wine is casual drinking!" Cousin Xue Yuning bristled, "Such an expensive red wine, you drank it here today, that is a waste, people kindly gave you such an expensive thing, you opened it and drank it on the spot, do you know, this is disrespectful."
Of course, these words of Cousin Xue Yu Ning were actually all excuses.
It was so hard to come across such a great bargain, so of course she wanted to take advantage of it.
A bottle of wine for 180,000 was worth half the money of her own family's house.
And if this wine was opened here today and everyone gave it to drink, it really wouldn't be worth a penny.
Besides, there were Jiang Hao and Xue Yuning, mother and daughter, sitting across from each other, so it would be fine if they were the only ones drinking the wine. If she were to share it with the three of them, Cousin Xue Yuning would be a bit reluctant.
But her excuse was clear to everyone.
After she said this, even her mother Wang Li gave her a white look of abhorrence.
Wang Li knew her daughter too well, she was the ultimate in insatiable greed, and as long as there was a bargain, there was nothing she dared not take.
If she didn't let her drink the wine today, she would definitely want to keep it for herself later, in which case Wang Li would probably never want to touch the bottle again in her life.
For this kind of thing, Wang Li has already had countless previous experiences, so she naturally understands it very well.
Cousin Xue Yuning, on the other hand, ignored all this and directly snatched the wine from her own mother's hand and carefully placed it in her own hand.
She finally even looked at Fan Deng and whispered playfully, "Haha, we didn't come for nothing today, not only did we not spend any money, but we also got 180,000 for nothing, hey? Right hubby, check if this wine is real, don't let that what's-his-name Qiao Dong fool us!"
Although Cousin Xue Yuning's voice was very soft, it was still heard by Jiang Hao.
In response, Jiang Hao could only shake his head and let out a bitter laugh, people like them, they really had little insight.
The young proprietor of the Grand Hyatt Hotel would use a fake bottle of wine to deceive you?
Besides, what they probably didn't know was that Qiao Dong hadn't given the wine to them at all, but to himself.
To be honest, this 180,000 bottle of red wine is already considered to be an extremely high-end product, and if it was just because they were here, Qiao Dong probably wouldn't even bother to take care of them.
And the most ridiculous thing was that they were still questioning whether the wine was fake.
It was even more ridiculous to have such thoughts.
With himself here, how dare Qiao Dong give himself fake wine?
Jiang Hao snorted and laughed, paying no further attention to the other party, but he noticed that Fan Deng had actually gone and checked.
Only after differing a bit, Fan Deng's face suddenly changed abruptly!
"What's wrong?" As soon as cousin Xue Yuning saw that expression on her husband's face, her heart also suddenly lifted, "No it can't be a fake, right?"
The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you're getting into.
But Fan Deng shook his head and laughed out loud, "Bullshit fake, watch your mouth, he is Qiaodong Qiao young master, giving you fake wine? Are you not awake?"
Fan Deng seemed excited and threw the phone directly to Cousin Xue Yuning, proudly saying, "Here, see for yourself!"
Cousin Xue Yuning was astonished and hurriedly picked up the phone and looked at it.
At this time, Fan Deng's mobile phone interface, is a wine company's official website, the picture above is clearly the bottle of red wine in his own hand.
Cousin Xue Yuning looked at the price underneath the red wine, and her eyes immediately went wide, and her mouth was so open that she could stuff a pig's foot into it!
"Three hundred and thirty thousand dollars?" Cousin Xue Yuning said in awe, "Didn't this say that it was only 180,000? How come it's 300,000 again!"
Fan Deng smiled at his words, "Silly elk, people said 180,000, that was the price a few years ago, like this kind of red wine, drinking one bottle less than one bottle, also more and more valuable, of course the price went up!"
