Chapter 25: Chapter 25
When the two returned to the venue, there were many more guests.Fu Wenru and Gao Meng didn't know where to socialize with others, Zhou Qiaonan took Tan Zhihuai to the arranged location.
As he was walking, he saw Tan Zhihuai's parents coming in from the gate, followed by a young man.The three walked towards the groom and shook hands with him.The two couldn't help but stop, watching from afar the flamboyant business exchange.
After watching for a while, Zhou Qiaonan took Tan Zhihuai to the side to get a drink, and asked him curiously, "Are the Tan family and the Lu family related? Why did your parents come to the wedding?"
"It's not a relationship. The Tan family has business cooperation with the research institute." Tan Zhihuai took a sip of orange juice, and then gave Zhou Qiaonan the connection between the Tan family and Professor Lu's unit.
In the research institute where Professor Lu works, the dean and Tan's father are classmates, and the relationship between the two is quite good.
Although the research institute is affiliated to the country, the more funds the better for scientific research. Because of the relationship with the president, Tan has invested a lot of research funds in the research institute, and the research institute has a lot of research funds in Tan's science and technology. In terms of business, he has provided a lot of technical support.
Tan's foundation is in real estate, but in recent years, the speed of technological development has been faster and faster. Tan's business has not been expanded to the field of electronic technology for a long time, and the foundation is not stable. It is only thanks to the backing of the research institute that Tan's development in science and technology The development of the field is smooth.
Father Tan, who has tasted the sweetness, wants to hold on to the research institute's thigh even more, and the research institute also hopes to have such a wealthy investor. Both parties intend to maintain a good relationship. This wedding is also an opportunity to promote the relationship.
"So...you should have known Professor Lu a long time ago?" Zhou Qiaonan adjusted his posture and looked towards Tan's father and mother. Sure enough, the number of business bragging teams increased, and Professor Lu was among them. The leader of the institute, the dean of the institute.
"That's not true." Tan Zhihuai touched Zhou Qiaonan, signaling him not to stare too much, so as not to attract attention, "Professor Lu is a technician, and he rarely comes out to participate in business entertainment, so today is indeed the first time I meet him."
Zhou Qiaonan didn't have much interest in the affairs of the Tan family and the research institute, so he didn't ask any more questions. Thinking of the young man who came in behind Tan's father and Tan mother, he quickly guessed his identity: "That who... is the real prince of the Tan family. ?”
Tan Zhihuai nodded slightly: "Well, it's Tan Rui."
Zhou Qiaonan looked at Tan Rui carefully, and commented: "He looks like a dog, but..."
Tan Zhihuai looked at Zhou Qiaonan with a smile on his face, and quietly waited for his last sentence.
Zhou Qiaonan calmly endured the gazes from the people around him, drank the rest of the drink in the cup in one gulp, and said, "Compared to the previous President Tan, he is still far behind."
The smile on Tan Zhihuai's face deepened, and he followed Zhou Qiaonan to their seats.
On the other side, the business exchange between Tan's father and Tan's mother and the leaders of the research institute was over, and they were taken to the arranged seats to sit down.
Tan's mother sat for a while, looked around, and spotted Zhou Qiaonan and Tan Zhihuai standing together chatting with people with sharp eyes. She frowned, got up and walked towards the two.
The ones who were chatting with Zhou Qiaonan and the others were invited media people. Zhou Qiaonan had some personal contacts with them, and the relationship was pretty good.Several people saw Tan's mother rushing over aggressively, although they didn't understand why, they all made excuses and walked away wisely.
Tan's mother waited until there were only the three of them left around her, and she accused Tan Zhihuai with an unfriendly expression: "Why are you still messing with him? You even brought him to this kind of occasion, so shameless!"
Zhou Qiaonan immediately rolled his eyes, he and Tan's mother had torn each other before, and they didn't have enough face.
Tan Zhihuai didn't expect Tan's mother's temper to become so anxious. When she saw them in public, she couldn't bear it and ran over to make trouble.
But he is not good at being a son like Zhou Qiaonan, so he can only answer her patiently: "Mom, there is a mistake in the order. Qiao Nan brought me to the wedding. The bride is an artist brought by Qiao Nan. He is the woman." The guests here. Besides, I don't know anything about my family being invited to the wedding."
Tan's mother turned blue when she was stunned, remembering that no one had notified Tan Zhihuai about attending the wedding, she could only choose to ignore the stupidity she committed just now with the cheek, and said bluntly: "It's not all your fault, I didn't even know to come back home , where can I tell you these things?"
Tan Zhihuai bowed his head and remained silent, not wanting to entangle her more.
But Tan's mother has been in a bad mood recently, and Tan Zhihuai was caught and she didn't want to let him go: "I have raised you for more than 20 years, and once you know that it is not your own, you will treat me like this? What crime did I do to raise you?" White-eyed wolf! I..."
Tan's mother was still scrupulous about the occasion, so she held back her curses, and panted desperately to calm her anger.
Zhou Qiaonan saw that she was making trouble for no reason, oppressing Tan Zhihuai, and retorted: "You are the ones who drove people out, and you are the ones who want them to go back. Do you think everyone is full and has nothing to do?"
"You have nothing to say about the Tan family's affairs!" Mother Tan scolded Zhou Qiaonan in a low voice.
Zhou Qiaonan's face paled, then he shrugged indifferently, turned around and left.But Tan Zhihuai stopped him and clasped his wrist tightly to prevent him from leaving.
"Mom, you should know in your heart whether Qiao Nan can be counted as the Tan family." Tan Zhihuai straightened his back and did not back down, his voice was not loud, but his words were forceful, "Besides, I am not a serious Tan family anymore. Why don't you keep what you say and tell Master Tan Rui?"
"Zhihuai, that's not what I meant." Mother Tan immediately softened her attitude and said kindly, "I'm in a hurry and you don't know how many times I've told you not to go home when you grow up so big. , but when did you take it seriously?
Although your status is not the same as before, can our mother-child relationship be fake?If you don't want to live at home, then live outside. You can choose whatever you want from the high-rise villas. Mom will buy it for you wherever you like, but you can't stop coming back to see me...and your father. "
"I don't have to worry about where I live, and I don't go back, it's for the good of you and my father." Tan Zhihuai laughed mockingly, and said, "I'm not as good as you like in everything, and I like to be against you in everything. Please see me a few more times. I'm afraid that if I'm not sick, I'll get sick with anger, why don't I be more self-conscious and less likely to be an eyesore in front of you, don't you think?"
"You unfilial son! Are you going to treat your mother like this because of this male vixen?" Tan's mother angered Zhou Qiaonan for no reason, pointed at his nose and wanted to scold her, but Tan Zhihuai stopped her and warned her, "Mom, do you really want to be here?" Is it embarrassing on this occasion?"
Mother Tan's words were all blocked back, she was trembling with anger, but she tried her best not to say a word.
At this time, Tan Rui got orders from Tan's father, walked over quickly, put his arms on Tan's mother's shoulders, and said with a smile, "Mom, Dad is looking for you, let's go back."
Mother Tan turned her head and saw Tan Rui, as if she had found a backer, she was so wronged that she was about to cry: "Xiao Rui..."
Tan Rui smiled at her gently, and after beckoning to Tan Zhihuai and Zhou Qiaonan, he hugged Tan's mother affectionately and returned to Tan's father.
Not far away, Tan's father's eyes fell on Tan Zhihuai, Tan Zhihuai smiled at him, helped Zhou Qiaonan's waist and sat back in his seat.
Some eyes that were quietly watching them disappeared immediately, and the venue was still full of joy, talking and laughing.
Fu Wenru also noticed their confrontation with Tan's mother and came to ask about the situation.Tan Zhihuai said a few words lightly, and Fu Wenru knew that he had an idea in mind, so he didn't say any more.
On the contrary, it was Zhou Qiaonan, who was angered by Tan's mother, who seemed to have suddenly connected with Ren and Du's second veins, stared at Tan Zhihuai, and asked him: "Is Tan Rui really your mother's son?"
He saw Tan Rui's appearance at close range just now, and he was quite upright, but no matter how he looked at it, he didn't have the slightest resemblance to Tan's mother, and only vaguely saw a part or two of Tan's father's shadow.On the contrary, Tan Zhihuai's facial features looked very much like Tan's mother.
It is not unreasonable to say that adopting a daughter to father Xiao and adopting a son to Xiao's mother is genetic inheritance.Although there are children who don't look very similar to their parents, when the two sons are put together, it's clear who looks like who doesn't, but they are accused of being a deer and a horse, and the truth is false. How can it not make people suspicious?
Tan Zhihuai never expected that Zhou Qiaonan would suddenly ask him such a sentence, his eyes wandered to Fu Wenru, and he hoped that his friend would rescue him.
But Fu Wenru learned his lesson this time, and instead of wading in the muddy water, he pretended not to see his call for help, and chatted enthusiastically with Gao Meng.
Tan Zhihuai had no choice but to sneer at Qiao Nan last week and said, "This...the inspection report is like this..."
"What's wrong with the inspection report? Is it rare for this thing to be fake?" Zhou Qiaonan retorted casually at first, but the more he said it, the more he felt it made sense. His mind quickly turned around about Tan Zhihuai's life experience, and the more he thought about it, the more suspicious he became. , "The inspection report is false, right? Did you already know something?
Tan Rui is not your parents' son, is he?What are you up to?What happened to you being kicked out by the Tan family? "
"Being kicked out by the Tan family has been in the news, how can this be a lie?" Tan Zhihuai avoided the serious and made a dying struggle.
Zhou Qiaonan was not fooled by him this time, and asked: "Then there is something wrong with the inspection report, you already knew about it?"
Tan Zhihuai lowered his head with evasive eyes, neither admitting nor denying it.
"You..." Zhou Qiaonan only felt a rush of anger rushing to his forehead, and he took a few breaths before suppressing it, "You'd better tell me the truth, how many things are lying to me, otherwise..."
Tan Zhihuai smiled flatteringly at him, laughing so hard that Zhou Qiaonan's fists were itchy, and he wanted to beat him up right now!
At this time, Chen Yanxin's assistant ran over to him with a small skirt, saying that Chen Yanxin had something to discuss with him.
Zhou Qiaonan had no choice but to let Tan Zhihuai go for the time being, pack up his emotions and clothes, and follow his assistant to the lounge to meet Chen Yanxin.
Seeing him walking away, Tan Zhihuai secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and blamed Fu Wenru, who was watching from the sidelines: "You didn't help me just now. I'm out of luck. He must blame you as well."
"I'll help you, am I helping you?" Fu Wenru put the phone in front of him and showed him what was on the screen, "Look, I bought several keyboards online for you, and you only have one at home. Not kneeling enough."
Tan Zhihuai: ...
