Leroy Davis put down his chopsticks and stood up spontaneously. The whole audience immediately whispered when they saw that Leroy Davis was dressed as if he was a street vendor, and his clothes were not too clean, and his hair was a bit stuck together.
“This man is dressed in rags.”
“What is he doing, coming to the hometown meeting dressed like this, too disrespectful, right?”
“Shh, maybe people do not like to show off, but actually a rich second generation, now there are many rich second generation in society but like to pretend to be poor.”
…
Leroy Davis said calmly, “Hello folks, my name is Leroy Davis, and I drive a food truck with a friend, selling things on the streets and alleys of Lin’an. Leroy Davis smiled faintly and sat down.
Once he finished, the people present froze for a moment, they work in the company to speak with little courage, he sold pancakes how to say so lightly, immediately, we all reacted.
“He’s just a pancake seller, and this job is worth talking about.”
“A mixed grain pancake is only 5 yuan, I think he can not even earn 3000 yuan a month, in addition to food and rent, there is no money”
“Damn, this kind of person also has the face to come to the hometown meeting? The least of the people here are those who earn more than ten thousand dollars a month, what can he do for us, a pancake seller?”
…
For a time, Leroy Davis became the object of conversation, there are ridicule, sarcasm, and contempt, in short, Leroy Davis in their eyes, is the lowest identity of the audience.
“Huh?”
Tian Xing, who was standing in front, gave a “Huh” and went to the side of Leroy Davis, pretended to look at Leroy Davis once, faced the crowd and smiled: “I seem to recognize him, some time ago, I saw him in the building outside the building! ”
“No way, how could he, a pancake seller, go to the building outside the building? Miss Tian, you are mistaken, right?” The others, however, did not believe it and all looked at Tian Xing suspiciously.
“Oh, everyone is thinking wrong, I did see him being kicked out of the hotel by the security of the building outside the building, and you guys must not think what he did in the building outside the building? He ah in the building outside the building, confessed to the Tenglong Group’s Miss Long family, was rejected by Miss Long to her face, and he also called out with the young master of the Li Li Ltd Ma Yang, you say he has no meaning this person”
“What, he confessed to Miss Long’s family? This kid is a bully, a pancake seller still want to climb high, do your daydreams go”
“As soon as I saw this kid’s face, I knew he was a money grubber, but at least you have a side of money grubbing ah, the Long family can be ranked in the top 5 families in Lin’an, just you a pancake seller still want to get up, daydreaming”
“This kid reminds me of the African grasslands of the flat-headed brother, a small head also dare to call the lion, he is not, a bottom poor, but also with the Ma Yang Ma Shao called the board, sooner or later, they have to get themselves killed”
…
Leroy Davis sneered in his heart, we are all Chang’an people in Lin’an, even if he is really a pancake seller, to look down on himself so much? He had come here because he had promised to pay you, and he wanted to listen to the countryside, but he didn’t expect to be in such a situation.
In that case, why should I stay here?
Leroy Davis stood up and walked towards the door, the others saw Leroy Davis ready to go, the sneer on his face became more and more obvious, they think Leroy Davis is ashamed of himself, embarrassed to stay here.
“Don’t go! Leroy Davis, you stop!” Tian Xing shouted while walking towards Leroy Davis, this is only where to go, she hasn’t had enough fun yet.
Leroy Davis now feels angry when he hears Tian Xing’s voice, which cares about her, he is still in a hurry to see his mother.
When Leroy Davis was about to open the door to go out, the door opened and a large, waifish man in his 40s walked in, none other than the organizer of the old-timers’ meeting —- Lee Yiu-wai.
“… this is…” Li Yaowei looked at Leroy Davis’ face, still unsure, and saw Leroy Davis’ face, Li Yaowei’s eyes trembled slightly.
“Mr. Li, this is our guest, don’t let him go …” Tian Xing hurriedly said to Li Yaowei, saying that she had come to the front of Leroy Davis and grabbed Leroy Davis, she winked at Li Yaowei while smiling said: “Mr. Li, just now Leroy Davis and everyone had a drop of unpleasantness …”
“Oh…” Li Yaowei snorted, he gently patted Leroy Davis’s shoulder: “Old brother, it’s okay, we are all hometown, are joking can not be taken seriously, for the sake of old brother, how about going in and sitting? ”
Leroy Davis thought, today is Li Yaowei as the host, people are so invited him, he also can not refuse, or give Li Yaowei a face, and re-sit in the seat again.
“I’m sorry, you should not take their words to heart …” Seeing Leroy Davis’ appearance just now, Fu Yu’s heart guilt deepened and whispered to Leroy Davis, which made Leroy Davis’ heart slightly relieved.
At this time in another of Kempinski’s most luxurious v888 boxes, the owner of Kempinski was standing respectfully beside a middle-aged beauty who was none other than Leroy Davis’ mother, Ming Zhao, and another man at the dinner table, who was actually Caleb Rodriguez.
This time Zhao Mingming returned to China ostensibly for business reasons, but in fact he wanted to take the opportunity to visit his son. In fact, from the time he learned that Leroy Davis’ poverty training was over, Zhao Mingming began to prepare to come back to see him, but only then did he make the trip.
On the eve of her return, she suddenly heard that her son had been “sanctioned” by the family again, forbidding Leroy Davis to use all family resources, which is no different from putting Leroy Davis through another poverty training session.
So once Zhao Mingming returned to China, he secretly made an appointment with Caleb Rodriguez, the head of Eastern US, to ask him to “take care of” his son, but after talking to Caleb Rodriguez for half a day, Caleb Rodriguez was afraid to agree.
In this regard, Zhao Mingming is that helpless and understandable, after all, “sanctions” Leroy Davis is the family’s orders, if he dares to bend the law, is subject to severe punishment by the family.
Zhao Mingming waited for Leroy Davis to get anxious before he called in Kempinski’s Boss Du and said, “Go to Box 304 and see what stage their party is at, and help me pay attention to this young man”
Zhao Mingming showed her phone to Boss Du, which contained a picture of Leroy Davis, given to her by Caleb Rodriguez.
“Although he did not know this middle-aged beauty, he had heard a lot about Caleb Rodriguez, who was a popular figure in Shanghai. In the whole Eastern US area, whether it is the rich and powerful, or officials at all levels have to be courteous, even he is respectful to the middle-aged beauty, how dare he neglect?
Boss Du retreated and walked toward box 304.
At this time in box 304, Li Yaowei and Tian Xing were standing in front of each other, and Li Yaowei said some polite words.
“Mr. Li, why did you let this pancake seller come back? Do we people here buy pancake concessions looking for him?”
said a young man seated in the arena, causing a burst of laughter in the audience, with some starting to coax Leroy Davis out.
“Hey, it’s not good for everyone to be like this, after all, we are all Changan people, we should tolerate each other” Li Yaowei rounded up, he pointed his finger towards Leroy Davis: “Leroy Davis, please stand for a moment”
Leroy Davis quite respects Li Yaowei, after all, people are speaking for themselves, and stood up.
“People may not know Leroy Davis yet, and of course, I don’t know him particularly well, but I met him by chance today and I can share with you to let you know what kind of a person Leroy Davis really is”
The others all showed puzzled expressions, can’t this pancake seller still have an unknown side?
Leroy Davis was also stunned, did Mr. Lee buy my pancakes today?
“Today I saw an old lady collecting junk on her bike fell down, Leroy Davis volunteered to help the old lady pick up the junk, originally I thought, this is a good boy, but I did not expect, in the end, he asked the old lady for 10 yuan!”
Li Yaowei recognized Leroy Davis the first time he saw him. He didn’t expect him to be the same person Tian Xing told himself to humiliate yesterday, which is why he retained Leroy Davis in.
“What! The money for collecting rags also ah”
“Before, I thought this man was just poorer, but I didn’t expect him to have a problem with moral quality!”
“I want to send him to the police station, it’s too humiliating for our Changan people”
…
That’s when the others had a problem with Leroy Davis.
Leroy Davis heart really disappointed, did not expect Li Yao Wei retain him is this purpose, see him and Tian Xing look at each other evil smile, Leroy Davis heart bitter laugh, so everything is Tian Xing set up a bureau for himself.
“Tell him to get lost! Such a morally corrupt person is not welcome!”
“Yes, he is a disgrace to the people of Chang’an, I can’t even eat well with him here”
…
Now is they do not drive Leroy Davis, Leroy Davis also will not stay here, Leroy Davis looked at this one ugly people, ready to go to the door.
“Stand still!”
Li Yaowei called Leroy Davis, his face with a sneer: “You think I am here is your home, want to come, want to leave ah, first leave the money for today’s meal before leaving! My table is the standard 8888, do not ask you more, you leave 1200 lines”
Fu You couldn’t look at it anymore, she stood up and said to Li Yaowei, “Mr. Li, didn’t you say that you are the host today and won’t let us pay for it?”
Li Yaowei sneered: “I did say that, but I hired a decent Chang’an man, if he is like him, poor, dirty, and has poor moral character, why should I hire him, I might as well feed him to the dogs with this money!
Fu Yu bit her lip, she felt that she had lied to Leroy Davis: “But, Leroy Davis he just ate a few chopsticks, how did you get him out of 1200?”
“The average is 1200, he left, the rest of the incomplete who to eat,” said Li Yaowei.
At this time, the door of the box rang 3 times and a man walked in, it was the boss of Kempinski, Du.
“Oh …” Du boss a glance to see the field standing in the very middle-aged beauty asked himself to pay attention to the person, do not feel taken aback, but he has not been able to figure out the middle-aged beauty and this young man’s relationship, he looked at Leroy Davis dressed in such a low-class The young man’s relationship with the middle-aged beauty, he saw Leroy Davis dressed so cheaply, naturally would not think that he and the middle-aged beauty is mother and son relationship.
“Boss Du!” Seeing Boss Du, Li Yaowei hurriedly welcomed him: “Why are you coming over, let me introduce you, this is Boss Du from Kempinski”
Hearing Li Yaowei’s introduction, everyone stood up and said complimentary words.
“This is not you here to hold the old folks meeting, special come and see it, I wish you all play well ah” Du boss congratulated the others, and asked Li Yaowei: “Mr. Li, what happened to this young man?”
“Oh, you don’t have to worry about him, it’s like this …” Li Yaowei generally told Mr. Du about Leroy Davis’ “deeds”, and finally said: “You said that I can’t let him eat for nothing if he can’t pay for his meal today: “You said, like this kind of reasoning quality of the corrupt person, I certainly can not let him eat white rice, today he can not get the food money, I will leave him to work here you”
Boss Du did not deny it, nodded slightly, said one or two more polite words, walked out of the box, went forward to report to the middle-aged beauty …
