The He siblings made a reservation at the Linyuan Court restaurant. It was a famous private restaurant in Lin City.
When Huo Jinyao entered the reserved room, Li Junsheng was there along with the He siblings.
Li Junsheng had grown up in Song City with Huo Jinyao. They had been childhood playmates but chose different careers. Li Junsheng had always known what his goals were since he was young.
He became deputy mayor at a young age, not long after he had graduated.
Huo Jinyao had known that he had changed jobs, but he didn’t know that he had moved to Lin City.
“Jinyao.” Li Junsheng stood up when he saw Huo Jinyao enter. “I heard Xuankai say that he had invited you to the meal today and I was a bit surprised. I didn’t think that you’d really come.”
“That’s because I knew that you were coming. I didn’t have a choice because I wanted to see you.”
Huo Jinyao spoke courteously but wasn’t actually being polite. He punched him on the shoulder right after he shook his hand.
“Stop bullsh*tting me. If you really wanted to see me, then how come you’ve never contacted me since I got to Lin City?”
“You’ve mistaken me. I really didn’t know that you had come to Lin City.” Huo Jinyao patted him on the shoulders. “Did you get promoted again?”
He Xuanyao opened her mouth and spoke clearly. “Cousin is the Mayor of Lin City now.”
Li Junsheng’s aunt Li Wanxiang had married into the He family and was the mother of the two He siblings. Li Junsheng was indeed cousins with the two.
“Not bad.” Huo Jinyao knew that Li Junsheng was ambitious, but it was still great for him to get into such a position at such a young age.
Li Junsheng chuckled. There was no need for the two of them to be courteous with one another.
They all sat down, and two more people arrived not long after. They were all people of related professions. Huo Jinyao had originally intended to see what the two He siblings were up to.
Now, he felt like he was being too stingy. There was a divide between the Huo and He family.
On the other hand, the Li and Huo families were very close with one another. Li Junsheng and him, along with five other people, had always been referred to as the “Seven Princes.” Naturally, they were very close.
After three shots of alcohol, Li Junsheng patted Huo Jinyao on the shoulder. The two had gotten close again. One could understand the other just by a look.
They used the excuse of going out for a smoke break and went to a corner.
Li Junsheng took out a cigarette box, pulled out a cigarette, and offered it to Huo Jinyao. “You still don’t smoke?”
“No.” Huo Jinyao didn’t smoke. “You’re not looking to relive old memories with me this time, are you?”
“You?” Li Junsheng chuckled. “I have an errand today.”
“What errand?”
“The first errand is to help Xuankai talk about the proposal. You guys are old partners with the He family. How come you’re giving them such a hard time now?”
Although the two He siblings were cousins with Li Junsheng, Li Junsheng still regarded Huo Jinyao as closer to him.
They were still his relatives, and he had to help them if they needed it.
“It’s nothing. I just think they can’t sort their priorities anymore.”
“Can’t sort their priorities? What do you mean?”
“When I didn’t want Song City, your cousin didn’t sit still. He looked for Huo Yifan many times. You tell me, should I not let him off the hook?”
Huo Jinyao’s tone was very calm, but Li Junsheng knew what he meant.
The waters were deep in the Huo household. There were a lot of people who were jealous of him and Huo Yifan, Huo Jinyao’s cousin, was one of them.
