An old restaurant like Tong Lechun felt a little depressed after all. Although it had been renovated, it had used some brains to introduce fashion. However, it was as if his fate had come to an end, and he could not pull himself together no matter how much he struggled. Moreover, because he had accumulated too much, he could not catch up with the situation. When the customers walked in, they felt like they were in a wonton shop. A square table covered with green checkered cloth was already vulgar enough. The boss thought he was smart enough to cover it with a plastic film. It was unknown whether it was to protect the green checkered cloth or to make the guests pay attention to hygiene. After the menu was opened, it was placed under the teapot. A line was crossed out for each dish. Soon, the tea blurred the handwriting. Most of the waiters were middle-aged women. Their actions were fierce and they looked very capable. A bowl full of soup was held in his hands. It was placed steadily in the middle of the table without spilling. The taste of the dishes was indescribable. It was as if they had been cooked in their own kitchen. After cooking the previous dish, the pot was not cleaned. With a rag, they opened the next pot. Each dish had some oil and a lot of gourmet powder, making it look very fresh. However, after eating it, he felt thirsty. Chairman Zhang didn't mind the greasy and noisy environment here. He sat at the table and looked quite at ease, as if he had arrived home. Hong Ye finally sat down under Xue Lihou's lead. It was just that her clothes did not match the environment, and she did not like the vulgar atmosphere here. It was very forced to talk. Because Xue Lihou was in a good mood, he kept trying to get her to talk. This made Chairman Zhang, who was next to her, wonder if he was the one accompanying her. Or should she accompany him? He felt that it was funny. He asked Hongye if she had been overseas. He noticed that Hong Ye was very interested in the foreign goods on the counter. Hence, they started talking about the food and dishes of various countries, including Spain, Mexico, and Italy. Speaking of Italy, Xue Lihou couldn't help but blink. Because a female university student he hired at the Northwest Company looked like an Italian girl. He thought of the secretary in his hometown and couldn't help but compare her to Hong Ye. Although Hong Ye wasn't very educated, she had seen many men and had seen a lot of the world because she worked in a place like the bathing city. She didn't even blink when Xue Lihou took out the money to sign the contract. It was as if Xue Lihou should spend the money. In fact, she was not necessarily more knowledgeable than the female university student. It could be seen from the way she dressed, ate, and so on. However, she had her own expectations, which was the same as that female university student. After the meal, a few waitresses sat in front of the service desk as if they were about to doze off. Loud and loud voices came from the kitchen. The smoke had subsided, as if the stove had been sealed. They went down the creaking wooden staircase and into the street, where the noise was assaulting them. Xue Lihou asked Chairman Zhang where he was going. Hong Ye rushed to the front and said,"Go back!" He sounded a little arbitrary when he said this, and it was inevitable that he would appear rude. Xue Lihou smiled good-naturedly and hailed a taxi back to the hotel.

Back at the hotel, Hong Ye said that she was going upstairs to change her clothes. Xue Lihou was drinking with Chairman Zhang in the lobby bar. There was a piano here, but no one was playing it. There were only some whispers. Chairman Zhang remembered the inevitable pattern of Hong Ye's behavior and said," This Hongye of yours has quite a character. Xue Lihou smiled." She's from the northeast. She's also a girl from a worker's family." Chairman Zhang smiled and didn't mention it again. He raised his head and looked out the window. Although the curtains were covered, he could still see the light outside. The cars drove past, bringing with them streaks of snow-white reflections that were piercing to the eyes. When he looked back, he felt that the hall was as dark as a cave. The two of them drank for a while. Xue Lihou looked upstairs and said, Why hasn't he come down after so long? I'll go take a look. He left his seat. Chairman Zhang sat alone and called the waiter to order another glass of wine. To be honest, he didn't know much about Xue Lihou's purpose for coming to Suoyang. He only knew that Xue Lihou had been a soldier here when he was young and had been sentenced by the military court for playing with women. When he talked about this, he often showed a hateful look, as if he was here to take revenge on someone. Today, he suddenly said that he would buy the heavy chemical machinery factory. He did not know what the connection between these two things was. Also, he was very polite to women, but from his words, it seemed like he had experienced many women. Based on his experience, nothing had happened between Xue Li and Hong Ye yet. However, he would not return empty-handed. This Hong Ye looked very pretty at the moment and she had no problem being his secretary. However, what would happen if things continued to develop? It was hard to say.

Just as Chairman Zhang was thinking about this, Xue Lihou brought Hong Ye to gather in front of him.

"Chairman Zhang, didn't you just eat? Why are you still going out?" Hong Ye asked, not understanding what was going on.

"Haha, Miss Hong Ye, we were just having dinner. Nightlife, other than eating, there was a lot more to it!”

The next program seemed to be shopping. They left the hotel and walked into the nearby Friendship Mall. Xue Lihou drew a circle with his hand and asked Hong Ye," What do you want to buy? He spoke in a heroic manner. Hong Ye became restrained and did not dare to look around, afraid that she would be suspected of asking the boss for something. The daughters of ordinary families had not been tempered by big scenes. They were sensitive and fragile, and they were easily injured. Hong Ye timidly walked between the counters, her eyes not looking sideways. Xue Lihou went up and asked, Do you want this? Hong Ye blushed like a frightened bird. Xue Lihou saw her embarrassment and felt touched. He and Chairman Zhang slowed down and distanced themselves from her. When she stopped at the gold counter and looked at the jewelry inside, she whispered to the salesperson about the style and color. Chairman Xue and Chairman Zhang came behind her and said, I don't dare to buy a diamond ring for you. Keep it for your husband! Hong Ye seemed to be shocked and immediately left the counter. However, Xue Lihou called the salesgirl over and pointed at the bracelet, asking her to take out two. Xue Lihou's taste was vulgar and practical. The bracelet he picked for her was heavy and of good color. It was yellow and looked especially clumsy on her slender wrist. Hong Ye was a little hesitant. When it was almost time to take out her credit card, Hong Ye returned the bracelet, saying that it was not as good as the platinum one. So Xue Lihou took out the platinum bracelet again, and the price was more than doubled. Xue Lihou didn't care about this. He seemed to like it even more. He signed his name in a flamboyant manner and even let Hongye admire it. He said that he had specially asked a Feng Shui master from Hong Kong to design his signature. "You're not a singer, who would ask you for an autograph?" Hong Ye said with a sharp tongue.”Xue Lihou smiled and said,"I'm giving it to Miss to sign the bill."

After buying the bracelet, the three of them went to the automatic elevator and headed to the leather and women's wear department. Hong Ye saw that Xue Lihou really wanted her to buy some things, but she felt that it would not be good to refuse. She bought a Japanese brand handbag, some scarves, stockings, hair clips, autograph pens, and other small things. Chairman Zhang said that he should drink some coffee. Hence, the three of them went to the back of the mall and saw a few small cafes. They were all full of people. Finally, they arrived at an Italian fast food restaurant. Because it was a fast food restaurant, the smell was very mixed. The smell of fried oil, cheese, and ketchup drowned out the fragrance of coffee. There were too many people and it was not convenient to talk, so they stood quietly. In fact, at this time, the few of them were already tired. They looked around for a long time and did not get out of their seats, so they squeezed out of the door again. The further back they went, the more people there were. This newly developed area was especially spacious with tall buildings. The sky was vast and seemed deep and dark. In the cluster of tall buildings, in this small circle of activity, you are the beating heart of the new district. However, even though the land here was only a little, it led the trend of urban consumption! The men and women who came here were the most modern men and women. There were many foreigners here, and the English pronunciation of the shop waiters was more accurate than that of foreign language professors. At this time, the conservative old citizens of the city were all asleep, breathing in the air of the night. The newbies 'nightlife had just begun.

A row of shops appeared in front of them. The windows were bright, and the shade of the trees outside the corridor was dark, giving off a mysterious atmosphere. The display window responded and revealed the interior scene. Hong Ye was facing a display window and looking at an embroidered sweater on the hanger. The inky lace outlined a large flower. The large flower was red and green. She did not know its name, but it was a flower with long petals and long stamens. It was short to the waist and had no buttons. The collar was tied with a rope. There were two red and green balls hanging from the black rope. Lively, charming, and gorgeous. Hong Ye could no longer walk, but she did not dare to push the door open and enter. Because this place was intimidating. Xue Lihou had already seen this scene and was the first to push the door open. There was a clang on the door and a lady slowly walked out from behind the clothes rack. She had her hands behind her back and watched the three people enter without saying a word. Hong Ye looked at the price tag on the sweater and seemed to have given up. She retreated to the back. At this moment, Xue Lihou spoke," Miss!”He said to the young lady who was standing with her hands behind her back,"Take this dress for this young lady.”He pointed at the colorful sample on the hanger. When he shouted, some of the girls who were walking out stopped in their tracks. They wanted to see which lady was so lucky to be able to wear such beautiful clothes on her. The young lady, who was standing with her hands behind her back, heard Xue Lihou's shout and was a little flustered. She wanted to smile, but she couldn't. Her hands hung down, and she didn't know where to move. She stood here every day and trained her eyes to distinguish between different people. She looked at the three people who came in. It was noisy and their appearances were uneven. Although this young lady was dressed well and followed the trend, her clothes were too new. The traces of them being torn apart were still there. She knew that these three people were here to broaden their horizons and see the world. At this moment, although she saw Xue Lihou wearing a jacket with the lapels open, revealing a yellow and green checkered cotton shirt inside, it was a brand that she could recognize. Only then did she understand that the customers on this street had arrived, so she was a little flustered.
