791: 791 791: 791 Ming Xizhi glanced at Qin Han, thought about it, and felt the sa.
It would be embarrassing to go back now, so he said, “This ti, since you personally ca to welco , I’ll let it slide.”
However, as soon as Ming Xizhi turned around, he saw Qin Han walking towards the hotel’s main entrance, leaving behind the words, “Mr.
Qiao, take Lord Ming to the private room with us.”
Upon hearing this, Qiao Dalong hurriedly gestured to Ming Xizhi and said, “Lord Ming, please co inside!”
“So you’re Qiao Dalong?” Ming Xizhi, looking helpless at Qin Han’s retreating figure, continued as he walked.
“Lord Ming knows about ?” Qiao Dalong asked, sowhat flattered.
Ming Xizhi nodded and replied, “I’ve heard Qin Han ntion you.”
He wouldn’t say that he had a small team in the Zhongyuan District solely focused on everything happening around Qin Han.
Ming Xizhi knew Qin Han’s situation like the back of his hand.
Stunned by this, Qiao Dalong felt even more grateful towards Qin Han and quickly said with a smile, “To have Mr.
Qin think of is quite flattering, Lord Ming.
Mr.
Qin sees you as one of his own, which is why he’s so casual about it.”
“I know, technically, I am still his uncle by marriage,” Ming Xizhi quipped.
“What?” Hearing this, Qiao Dalong was utterly shocked.
Ming Xizhi was Qin Han’s uncle by marriage?
Ming Xizhi, however, had already walked into the hotel.
Seeing this, Qiao Dalong hurriedly followed him in.
Inside the private room, Luo Ming and others were chatting.
Seeing Qin Han enter, they asked in confusion, “Dr.
Qin, weren’t you waiting for soone?
Why have you co back alone?”
Just as he finished speaking, Ming Xizhi followed and entered the room, prompting everyone to quickly stand up.
Ming Xizhi, with a smile on his face, stretched out his hand in a lowering gesture, just about to speak.
But Qin Han said mildly, “We’re all family here, no need to be formal.”
Ming Xizhi then said, “Aren’t you stealing my lines?”
Everybody laughed loudly at this, and the earlier tension knowing that Ming Xizhi was coming dissipated.
“These are my colleagues from the First Hospital,” Qin Han introduced to Ming Xizhi.
Then, turning to Luo Ming and others, he added, “You all know who he is, right?
No need to feel pressured; we’re just here to have a al and show appreciation for you all.”
“Right, right, I’m not any inspector today, just a friend of Qin Han,” Ming Xizhi also said with a smile.
Ming Xizhi knew, in fact, that being invited by Qin Han to dine alone ant they must have a very good relationship.
It wasn’t that Qin Han was stingy, but he understood Qin Han too well.
Qin Han liked quiet and despised trouble to an infuriating extent.
Under these circumstances, to beco a guest of honor for Qin Han, it was clear these people had a special relationship with him.
Luo Ming said with a smile, “I never thought Lord Ming would be so approachable.”
Zhong ii, looking at Ming Xizhi, murmured, “I can’t believe I’m eating at the sa table as the inspector.
This is too shocking for .”
Everyone looked at Zhong ii’s reaction and couldn’t help but want to laugh.
Qin Han, however, said, “Let’s eat first.
What’s there to be surprised about an inspector?”
“Do you think everyone is like you?
You didn’t leave any face for ,” Ming Xizhi retorted, annoyed.
Qiao Dalong, trying to appease, chid in, “Mr.
Qin, Lord Ming, shall we serve the dishes now?”
“Serve the dishes,” Qin Han nodded.
Qiao Dalong then carefully asked Ming Xizhi, “Lord Ming, what drink would you like?”
“Do you all drink?” Ming Xizhi asked, looking at the group.
He knew that Qin Han didn’t drink, but he asked everyone anyway.
Luo Ming shook his head and said, “Why don’t you have a drink, Mr.
Ming?
Our ergency room prohibits alcohol.”
Ming Xizhi was taken aback and asked in confusion, “Aren’t you off work now?”
“The ergency room requires us not to drink whether on or off duty so that in case of understaffing during an ergency, we can be on duty promptly!” Luo Ming explained with a smile.
Ming Xizhi looked at everyone, and the smile gradually faded from his face as he said to Qiao Dalong, “Let’s skip the drinks.”
The others saw Ming Xizhi looking a bit unhappy and thought it was because no one was accompanying him for a drink, but what Ming Xizhi said next made everyone realize differently.
“You all are heroes, unnad heroes!” Ming Xizhi said solemnly.
To deal with ergencies, everyone must abstain from alcohol all year round; even a single day spent in the ergency room ans no drinking.
What a great sacrifice it is?
They are unnad heroes indeed!
However, several people were slightly embarrassed by Ming Xizhi’s words, and Luo Ming nervously rubbed his hands, saying, “It’s what we ought to do, it’s our duty.”
Wang Xiaobo’s face also turned red with excitent.
Qin Han then said to Qiao Dalong, “Let’s skip the drinks and just serve the dishes!”
“Alright!” With that, Qiao Dalong turned and left.
A few minutes later, the waiter served exquisite dishes on the table.
Qin Han looked at Qiao Dalong and said, “Co and sit down to eat with us.”
“No…
no need, Mr.
Qin, please enjoy,” Qiao Dalong said with a smiling face.
Ming Xizhi also turned to look at Qiao Dalong and said, “Co eat with us.
Don’t treat as the governor now.”
“Oh, alright!” Upon hearing this, Qiao Dalong reluctantly sat down, but he only sat on the edge of his seat so he could get up quickly if needed.
Seeing this, Ming Xizhi frowned and said, “Am I that frightening?
I’ve already said I’m not acting as the governor right now; I’m just here to enjoy your food.
I’ve always heard that the dishes at Shengdu Hotel are good, but I’ve never been here, considering the high cost of eating here.”
Upon hearing this, Qiao Dalong’s forehead began to sweat, and he hastily said, “I will adjust the prices of the dishes tomorrow.”
“You…” Ming Xizhi was sowhat at a loss for words after hearing Qiao Dalong’s remark.
Qin Han, however, sighed and said, “You people always speak so eloquently; please don’t talk nonsense.”
“I can’t just co in, eat my al, and then leave imdiately, right?” Ming Xizhi glared at Qin Han and said, “I bet by tomorrow the news would report that the Central Plains Governor is a glutton who grabs the food and runs!”
Upon hearing this, everyone smiled warmly, and Song Yuwei said, “Qin Han, with so many people around, you should give Mr.
Ming so respect.”
“See?
Miss Song knows how to understand others,” Ming Xizhi promptly said.
Interrupted by the exchange between Ming Xizhi and Qin Han, the atmosphere at the table was no longer as tense as before.
Afterwards, everyone truly enjoyed the dinner and chat as if they were friends, and Ming Xizhi even started calling Qiao Dalong ‘Old Qiao,’ which flattered him greatly.
During the al, Luo Ming answered a phone call and stepped out.
As Luo Ming was about to return to the private room after finishing the call, he heard a voice.
“Why are you here?”
