Chapter 3076

Su Xinghui said, "That's not necessary. I'll just take Zhai Yingjie's car."

Liu Xin said, "Alright, then I won't disturb you. I'll go back first and wait for you at Yipinxuan tonight."

After getting off work in the afternoon, Su Xinghui took Zhai Yingjie's car to Yipinxuan. Today, he wanted Zhai Yingjie to wait for him at Yipinxuan. In case something happened, Zhai Yingjie would be there to help.

On the way, Su Xinghui said, "Yingjie, I'm sorry. I can't let you go home early to take care of Qianqian today."

Zhai Yingjie said, "Mayor Su, this is what I should do. You've already taken good care of me. It's snowing these days and the weather is cold, so I have to take you back later."

Su Xinghui didn't tell Zhai Yingjie the real reason for asking him to wait. He hadn't told anyone about the incident with Liu Xin. It wouldn't be good for anyone if that matter got out.

Before long, the car arrived at Yipinxuan. Yipinxuan was located in a residential area in the new district of Baozhou City. This residential area was called Junlin Tianxia, and it was developed by the Hongtu Real Estate Company. It was selling quite well and had long been sold out, especially the storefronts here, which had all been bought by people, either to open their own shops or to rent out.

This Yipinxuan was opened by a boss from Guangdong Province and featured authentic Cantonese flavors. Since its opening, business had been very hot. Although the prices of the dishes here were relatively high, there were still clouds of diners.

Today, Yipinxuan was still prosperous, with guests packed to the brim. The seats in the lobby were all full, and there were people waiting for seats at the door.

There were many investors in Baozhou now, and there were more and more enterprises here, so the demand for high-end business banquets was also increasing. Yipinxuan could be considered to have complied with the trend of Baozhou, so it was very normal for the business here to be good.

Liu Xin's younger brother, Liu Qiang, waited in the lobby. Seeing Su Xinghui arrive, he hurriedly greeted him and said, "Mayor Su, you're here. Please come in."

Su Xinghui and Zhai Yingjie followed behind Liu Qiang. Liu Qiang led them to the door of a private room and invited them in first, and then he followed them in.

Su Xinghui saw Liu Xin standing in the private room waiting to welcome him. He also knew why Liu Xin didn't wait outside; her image was too conspicuous, and she was the director of the Tourism Bureau, so it would be easy for people to see her standing outside, which would have a bad influence.

Su Xinghui said with a smile, "Liu Qiang, aren't you trying to make me commit a mistake by inviting me to such a high-end place for dinner?"

Liu Qiang said, "Mayor Su, this is what I should do. You saved my life last year. Such a great kindness, and it took me so long to invite you to this meal. I'm really embarrassed."

Su Xinghui said, "There's no need to mention this. I just happened to pass by. If I hadn't happened to pass by, others would have saved you too. I'm just happy that you can recover your health now."

Liu Qiang said, "Thank you for doing us the honor. Please sit down. This is Master Zhai, right? Please sit down too, don't be polite."

Several people sat down, and Liu Xin returned to her dignified appearance. This appearance made Su Xinghui laugh inwardly. If others saw her like this, they would definitely not think she was so lively in Su Xinghui's office today.

Liu Qiang called the waiter in and said to Su Xinghui, "Mayor Su, you order a few dishes."

Su Xinghui couldn't refuse and had to take the menu. He ordered a hot pot, which was a Cantonese-style hot pot. Since the weather was cold now, it was better to eat hot pot. After ordering this hot pot, he returned the menu to Liu Qiang.

Liu Qiang insisted that Zhai Yingjie order another dish, then ordered a few more of Yipinxuan's signature dishes, and let the waiter go to serve the dishes.

Liu Qiang asked, "Mayor Su, would you like to drink some alcohol?"

Su Xinghui said, "Let's not drink alcohol."

Liu Qiang said, "The weather is cold, drinking some alcohol will warm you up. How about drinking some white liquor?"

Su Xinghui nodded and said, "That's fine, let's drink some white liquor."

Liu Qiang asked Zhai Yingjie again. Zhai Yingjie said he had to drive, so he wouldn't drink alcohol. Liu Qiang then asked the waiter to bring a bottle of white liquor and two cans of drinks. He gave one can of drink to Liu Xin and Zhai Yingjie each, and then began to pour liquor for Su Xinghui.

Hot pot was served relatively quickly. Before long, the waiter brought a pot of milky white thick soup, placed this pot of thick soup on a gas stove in the middle of the table, and as soon as the gas stove was lit, the pot of soup immediately boiled.
