In a Chinese restaurant.
Long Jiwen sat beside Xu Tianyao and stared at him curiously.
"Hey, you still haven't told me your name and what you do.”
"Thank you for helping me get my foot out just now and getting someone to repair my car. I really envy you for having so many friends!”
Long Jiwen supported his head with his hand so that he didn't have to turn around to talk to Xu Tianyao.
Xu Tianyao had watched the original drama and naturally knew that Long Jiwen was speaking the truth. When she was ten years old, she had followed her father, Long Chengbang, to Bay Island. Although her family was well-off, she had never received the care of her family.
Especially after Long Chengbang was kidnapped by his children, who had colluded with bandits, he was even more furious. He divided his wealth and drove all his wives and children away from him. Long Jiwen was only a teenager at that time.
However, Xu Tianyao's deepest impression of Long Jiwen was when Long Chengbang was kidnapped by Ding Xie. Long Jiwen, who had been driven out of his home again, could still beg for help for Long Chengbang.
This was a woman who valued her relationship more than her life, but her ending was very tragic.
After finally accepting her father, she had a heart attack caused by the man she loved the most in the stock market. He fell down the stairs and fell to his death. In the end, she could only choose to leave quietly and die alone.
Although Long Jiwen also had the princess's disease of being spoiled and willful, when combined with her background, it made people's hearts ache even more.
Xu Tianyao began to chat with her patiently. He talked about some of his own matters, which made Long Jiwen very engrossed.
"You're amazing. You started as a house boy, and now you're the boss of a club and a publishing company. Even my father wasn't as capable as you when he was your age.”
Long Jiwen said in admiration. The admiration in his eyes could easily make a man feel a sense of accomplishment.
The meal lasted for nearly two hours. Long Jiwen and Xu Tianyao gradually became more familiar with each other, but there was always a time when the meal was over and people had to say goodbye.
"Yao, can I come to you again?”
Long Jiwen's eyes were a little sad. She had been back in Hong Kong for so many years, but she didn't have any friends. Those people only cared about her money.
However, Xu Tianyao was different from the others. He really treated him as an ordinary person. He did not curry favor with him, nor did he hate him. He was like a true friend.
Xu Tianyao smiled. He knew how much Long Jiwen wanted to have a friend who was sincere to him. Just as he was about to speak, someone called.
"Hey…"
" Alright, since Mr. Wu invited me, how could I refuse? Alright, I'll wait here…"
After hanging up the phone, Xu Tianyao couldn't help but smile. Wu Guangzheng had invited him to a gathering of his own.
It seemed that Wu Guangzheng was eager to convince the Boat King. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so impatient and invited him the next day.
Xu Tianyao turned his head and smiled at Long Jiwen.""Where do you plan to go later?"
Long Jiwen didn't get the answer he wanted, and his face instantly turned dejected. He even choked up,""I don't know either. You don't have to worry about me.”
Xu Tianyao was stunned for a second and said with some amusement,"I mean, if you have nothing to do later and don't mind, you can come with me.”
"Really?"
Long Jiwen quickly raised his hand to wipe the tears from the corner of his eyes and asked in surprise.
"Of course it's true."
Xu Tianyao laughed bitterly. A woman's talent in changing her face was really strong.
Long Jiwen's entire body was glowing. He also began to ask Xu Tianyao excitedly where he was going and who he was going to meet.
"There will be people coming to pick you up later. I don't know where. As for who they are, you'll know when you meet them.”
Xu Tianyao explained patiently. When he said the last sentence, he even emphasized it.
Long Jiwen didn't notice. She was thinking that Xu Tianyao was going to a club gathering.
Although her father, Long Chengbang, had dealt with most of the clubs in Hong Kong when he was the Chief Inspector, and the leaders of several big clubs in Hong Kong had visited Long Chengbang's home, Long Jiwen had seen them before.
However, Xu Tianyao's club was obviously not one of those clubs. Long Chengbang had fled to Bay Island for more than ten years. Even the club leaders that Long Jiwen knew had long retired.
But what she didn't expect was that Xu Tianyao was going to a party hosted by the son-in-law of the ship king, and the people he met were all business figures.
The business world was different from a society. The more powerful a person was, the longer they would live.
When Long Chengbang was still the Chief Inspector of the Hwa District, Shen Bi and the other wealthy people in Hong Kong would definitely have a lot of dealings with him. Therefore, Long Jiwen might really know Wu Guangzheng or Shen Bi.
On the street, a black car stopped beside Xu Tianyao. The driver was still the same driver from yesterday. He gave Xu Tianyao the impression that he was very dutiful and knew what to ask and what not to ask.
After Long Jiwen got into the car, he quickly asked,""Yao, where are you going? It doesn't feel like a club gathering!”
Xu Tianyao didn't know whether to laugh or cry.”
