Chapter 63
Wang Shilong was very proud of himself, as the rich second-generation grandson of the Wang family in Tanjiang City, there really weren’t many people he couldn’t get a date with.
While the two were talking, a figure had already rushed down from the first floor, and before the person arrived, his voice came through.
“Aiyo! Isn’t this Mr. Lin? Give me a call in advance so I can make arrangements, how many people? I’ll arrange a room right away!”
The person who came was none other than the hotel manager Yang Tianming, after what happened last time, Lin Ran was an absolutely sensitive figure in the Ya Xiang Hotel, Yang Tianming even explained a hundred times that he must contact himself first when he came across Lin Ran.
“No need to go to such trouble, just arrange a private room.”
Lin Ran said calmly, while Yang Tianming laughed.
“No trouble, no trouble, it’s simply a great honour for Mr. Lin to come to us, I’ll go and arrange it now!”
“Stop right there!”
Yang Tianming was just about to leave when a chiding voice came over, he turned his head to look and couldn’t help but be stunned.
“Manager Yang, you haven’t seen me for a few days, your stature has risen! Even I can’t see you anymore!”
Wang Shilong tackled with a cold smile as he walked step by step.
Yang Tianming was a little surprised at first, but soon calmed down and looked at Wang Shilong and laughed.
“Sir Wang, why do you want to book a room too? Not too much of a coincidence, the rooms are indeed very tight today!”
“Then what makes him able to book, I am the shareholder of this place, what is he, you are too comfortable as a hotel manager I think, if you don’t want to do it, get out of here tomorrow!”
Wang Shilong scolded angrily.
Yang Tianming heard this but revealed a disdainful smile and said.
“Wang Gongzi, haven’t you been home for a long time, didn’t your father tell you that this Ya Xiang Hotel, no longer has anything to do with your Wang family?”
“You …. What do you mean!”
Wang Shilong’s heart thumped and had a bad feeling.
“It means that your Wang family has been removed, the shares of the Ya Xiang Hotel have been regrouped, and your Wang family’s share has been taken away by Luo’s, so your Wang family’s grandson can go wherever he wants to act like a lord, in my case, you can’t!”
Yang Tianming sneered.
These words were like a bolt from the blue, Wang Shilong directly froze on the spot, unwilling to believe it.
“This is absolutely impossible, our Wang family and Luo’s are in contact and can even cooperate in the future, how can his family take away our shares!”
Wang Shilong said, but Yang Tianming revealed a cold smile and said.
“Then we’ll have to go back and ask your brother.”
Yang Tianming didn’t bother to explain, and immediately turned around and went to arrange for a room.
Lin Ran could hear it really well at this moment, and his heart could not help but think of someone, someone who had a very deep grudge against him, Wang Qiang.
“Looks like this kid is Wang Qiang’s younger brother… it’s really an injustice!”
Lin Ran thought in his mind.
Yang Tianming, however, had already arranged the room and greeted the crowd as they went upstairs.
“Let’s go!”
Lin Ran greeted the group of students and immediately went up to the first floor, only Wang Shilong and Qimei stood in place, their faces grim, tonight was originally their treat, but now it had become Lin Ran’s treat.
“Come on, let’s go up!”
Chimei said, although she was a little embarra*sed, she didn’t want to miss this reunion, she had already lost face by treating, she had to get it back at the dinner table later.
“Go!”
Wang Shilong said in a low voice, his heart was very nasty, but when he thought that he could still get back his face when he talked about his job later, he held his anger and went upstairs.
The room arranged by Yang Tianming was in a very good location, the huge floor-to-ceiling window could see the Temperance Lake outside, the beauty of the night view was amazing, and the room was even more hit and miss, there were less than twenty people in Lin Ran’s party, yet the room could accommodate forty people, apparently the room was usually closed to the public.
“Chimei, is this the same size room you guys usually come here in?”
Seemingly not noticing the embarra*sment on Chimei’s face, a female student came over and asked.
“Yes …. Yes!”
Chimene laughed awkwardly.
“Alright, everyone take your seats!”
Lin Ran greeted, and only then did a group of people take their seats, only after they did so was an awkward scene.
No one had ordered anything!
Lin Ran saw this and looked at Wang Shilong and laughed.
“Mr. Wang, the room is also available, so why not order a dish?”
“Humph!”
Wang Shilong snorted coldly and greeted over the waiter and started to order, while the others opened their conversation boxes and chatted with each other, not enough for many eyes to fall on Song Nuan and tease Lin Ran.
“Ranzi, I didn’t see it coming, you’re not too lucky, you’ve actually caught up with the school girl!”
“Yes! We’re really jealous!”
“Hey, what’s it like to be the school girl’s boyfriend?”
One by one, they asked with a laugh, and Lin Ran said with a helpless smile.
“It’s alright, it’s natural to be together when the time comes!”
Song Nuan couldn’t help but pinch him and whispered.
“Less nonsense, if I had known that I was being used by you so much at night, I shouldn’t have agreed to you this afternoon!”
“It’s too late, I didn’t see you go soft when we were shopping, now you want to regret? The rice is already cooked!”
Lin Ran laughed, Liu Chen on the side only heard the last sentence and was stunned, exclaiming.
“Holy Sh*t Old Six, you’re too fast, how can you cook rice when it’s already ripe? Little Blue and I have been talking for three years and we haven’t even held hands!”
“F**k off!”
Brother Jiuzhi couldn’t take it anymore and opened his mouth to scold, then looked at Lin Ran and said.
“Old Six, don’t be normal with him, this guy sells himself short when he gets a bargain, back in college, I don’t know who was the one who didn’t live at speed for two nights out of three days!”
“Hey, you can’t talk nonsense, I was there to help Little Blue with her revision.”
Liu Chen hurriedly explained.
“Cut!”
The crowd around them collectively squealed at the words, apparently none of them believed it.
As the crowd joked, the food had already started to be served one after another, and it had to be said that the food in a star hotel was different, and the crowd of students couldn’t help but gag.
“Lin Ran, can we eat?”
Xiao Xiao opened her mouth and asked, looking at Lin Ran with a little gluttonous look in her eyes.
“You’ll have to ask Mr Wang, it’s someone else’s treat today after all!”
Lin Ran laughed, but in Wang Shilong’s ears, these words were unusually harsh, his own treat? If word of this got out, he, the young master of the Wang family, would have no face.
When he thought of this, Wang Shilong’s heart could not help but become even more irritated. He held back his anger and greeted the people but started to eat, and only after the people had eaten for two to three minutes did he rise up and look at Lin Ran and said.
“Lin brother’s ability is not ordinary, let me see, just before I heard Lin brother said, is in Tamkang Hospital work, do not know what is doing? I also know people at Tamkang Hospital, maybe I can introduce you to each other and help each other out in the future!”
Wang Shilong’s words didn’t seem wrong, but a few smart people still heard the fishy thing, asking people about their jobs and introducing them to each other for no reason, which in layman’s terms means that to offer affection for nothing is to be treacherous.
“Forget about helping each other, I’m rather rigid, I like to work down to earth, I don’t engage in gang affiliation!”
Lin Ran laughed, a sentence blocked Wang Shilong’s face, but Wang Shilong’s family is a businessman after all, under the influence of his eyes, he still has some ability, he suppressed his displeasure and continued to laugh.
“I just don’t understand one thing. My friend said that he had never heard of anyone named Lin Ran in Tanjiang Hospital. Or is this friend of yours called Liu Chen lying in the group?”
At these words, everyone stopped their chopsticks and looked at Lin Ran and Liu Chen, and for a while the scene fell into silence.
Chapter 64
“Lying? Lao Liu put your identity ….!”
Liu Chen wanted to retort, but Lin Ran stopped him and looked at Wang Shilong and laughed.
“I wonder what Mr. Wang’s friend, what’s his name? I suddenly want to get to know it.”
“Haha! Small matter, I have a problem with this person, I like to break everything to the end, I don’t understand things, I like to figure them out, that friend of mine has arrived soon, you can meet him then!”
Wang Shilong laughed, looking very easy-going, but the faces of all the people listening were sunken, the intention of calling an outsider to the cla*s reunion was obvious.
Many of the students present initially believed Liu Chen’s claim that Lin Ran was working in Tanjiang Hospital, but when they saw that Wang Shilong had actually found someone who dared to come over and confront Lin Ran face to face, they could not help but have some doubts in their hearts.
Could it be that Liu Chen was really lying to everyone? After all, from the time Lin Ran appeared until now, he hadn’t even said himself that he was working at Temperance Hospital.
“Hey, why is this guy always targeting you?”
Song Nuan, who was watching from the side, didn’t know what had happened in the afternoon and was inevitably a little confused at this point.
“It’s not because of you, with such a beautiful big beauty sitting next to me, I’m afraid that as long as it’s a guy, he’ll target me!”
Lin Ran made a helpless expression.
“F**k you, what time is it, still interested in joking!”
Song Nuan’s pretty face flushed, but in her heart she was secretly pleased.
“I’ll see how long you can be complacent!”
Wang Shilong’s face was gloomy, the more Lin Ran and Song Nuan talked and laughed, the more jealous he became, he could not wait to beat Lin Ran up and reveal his true face as a poor loser.
While he was talking, there was a knock on the door, and Wang Shilong got up and said with a smile.
“My friend is here, does Brother Lin want to come and meet him?”
“No, you’d better bring someone over!”
Lin Ran said indifferently.
“Humph!”
Wang Shilong was very upset at this, he actually asked himself to bring someone over, he really thought he was something, but in order to get in Lin Ran’s face as soon as possible, he still snorted coldly and went straight to the door to meet the person.
The door of the private room and the eating area were cut off by a very cla*sical screen, which was not only decorative but also a feng shui arrangement, mainly to block the wind through the hall, so the main door was not visible from where the crowd was eating, and the main door naturally could not see the people inside.
The door to the room opened and a middle-aged man, with a haggard face, walked in.
“Director Fu, what’s wrong? You look so bad?”
Wang Shilong was surprised, the last time we met Fu Hao’s face could be very rosy, I didn’t expect that after only a few days of not seeing him, the whole person had become haggard like this.
“Hey, it’s a long story, what is the reason for Old Brother Wang calling me here?”
Fu Hao asked, his tone very kind, he knew that the young man in front of him was a rich second generation and might be able to help himself out.
Since leaving the hospital, he had bounced around several places looking for work, but the results were …..
“Ao, or what I asked you this afternoon, I want to make sure that there is a doctor named Lin Ran at Temperance Hospital.”
Wang Shilong said, the last part of the voice raised very high, as if afraid that the people inside could not hear.
The people inside all put down their chopsticks at this point and listened with ears pricked up, except for Lin Ran, Song Nuan and Liu Chen Zhang Xu who were eating by themselves, all of whom knew Lin Ran’s work.
“Why are you asking this all of a sudden?”
Fu Hao’s face was gloomy, where he didn’t know Lin Ran, it was because of this kid himself that he was sacked, he said he didn’t know him this afternoon purely because he didn’t want to hear the name Lin Ran in.
But being shouted at by Wang Shilong, actually it was still because of Lin Ran, this made him very upset in his heart.
“No!”
Fu Hao said in a deep voice, his face as gloomy as water.
“This …. Could Lin Ran really be…!”
“It can’t be, back in school, Lin Ran never lied!”
“I think there might be some kind of misunderstanding here!”
A group of people looked at Lin Ran and whispered, but many of them already believed in their hearts that Lin Ran was lying about this fact.
“Come on, let’s go in and talk while we eat!”
Wang Shilong was in a great mood and pulled Fu Hao inside, the two of them had just stepped out of the screen covering the place when Fu Hao froze in his tracks.
“Director Fu, long time no see!”
Lin Ran looked at Fu Hao and said, but the latter’s whole body trembled slightly.
“You …. Why are you here!”
Fu Hao’s face was ugly as he looked at Wang Shilong with anger on his face.
“That’s not the right reaction, Director Fu, don’t you not know me?”
Lin Ran laughed lightly.
Fu Hao’s face turned blue at his words, his mind spinning quickly, suddenly he thought of something and spoke.
“Naturally I recognise you, you are a student of Temperance University, I am just surprised how you are here!”
Wang Shilong’s heart was all seized up, when he heard Fu Hao say that, he couldn’t help but sigh with relief and said.
“Director Fu, this friend of mine is called Lin Ran, he said he was a doctor at Tamkang Hospital, I want to confirm with you, is this true?”
“No!”
Fu Hao didn’t even think about denying it directly, jokingly, if he told the truth, I’m afraid he would have to offend Wang Shilong today, moreover, today only he and Lin Ran were here, if he bit the bullet and said that Lin Ran was not a doctor of Temperance Hospital, there was nothing he could do to him.
“Haha, I know!”
Wang Shilong turned to look at Lin Ran with a teasing look on his face.
The others also looked at Lin Ran, and the scene became awkward for a moment, with many people sweating for Lin Ran, trying to see how he would end the situation.
Lin Ran’s expression remained bland, as he poured himself some food while saying.
“I really didn’t realise before that Director Fu still had the ability to be cheeky, today I’m really impressed.”
“What’s the point of talking about this? Why don’t you prove your innocence?”
Wang Shilong laughed, but Lin Ran was unconcerned and said.
“Why do I need to prove my innocence? Those who are innocent are innocent, if you don’t believe me, why don’t you just go to the hospital tomorrow and take a look?”
“Haha, I think you are afraid of being embarra*sed, Director Fu is the director of Tamkang Hospital, you are just a graduate, at most a trainee doctor, this is really a fake Li Kui meeting a real Li Kui, it’s just laughable!”
Wang Shilong laughed as Chimei, who was on one side, interjected without missing a beat.
“Yes, Lin Ran we are all cla*smates, you do not work in Tamkang Hospital, just tell the truth, for the sake of cla*smates, our family Shilong will also help you, why do you have to lie?”
“No, no, this kind of person who likes to lie, I wouldn’t dare to take.”
Wang Shilong laughed, Liu Chen and Zhang Xu were so angry that their faces turned blue, but there was nothing they could do.
Everyone looked at Lin Ran with some sympathy in their eyes, and Song Nuan also had a worried face.
But Lin Ran himself was the only one who remained calm, as if he hadn’t heard anything at all.
Just when everyone thought that Lin Ran had acquiesced, a voice suddenly came from the doorway.
“Is that Director Lin? I’m Li Zheng!”
“It’s me!”
Lin Ran frowned slightly, why did this guy suddenly appear here?
As Lin Ran’s words fell, Li Zheng had already walked in, he was wearing a white lab coat and carrying a first aid kit in his hand, he smiled when he saw Lin Ran.
“What a coincidence, I didn’t expect to run into you here!”
Li Zheng said, and suddenly he saw Fu Hao, he immediately went forward with joy and said.
“Hey! You’re the former deputy director of the Chinese medicine department at Tamkang Hospital, Fu Hao! I’ve heard so much about you, but I heard that you were recently retrenched? What a pity, it’s really a pity that you didn’t get to work under Director Lin, his medical skills are even inferior to mine!”
The moment he said this, everyone was stunned except for Lin Ran, especially Fu Hao, his face was even gloomy to the extreme, how could someone who knew him come out at this time, it was really bad luck to drink cold water.
