313: Meet an old acquaintance

"I'll call you Secretary Li."

Guo Hao smiled.

The middle-aged man in front of him was more than a decade older than himself, so how could he call him Little Li?

He couldn't possibly say it!

"As you wish! Director Wang and the others are already waiting for you in the private room, please follow me!"

Li Yanbin said with a smile, looking at Guo Hao.

As he spoke, his gaze turned towards Xu Yuan who was standing nearby.

"This driver sir, you..."

"Don't mind me, just take Professor Guo."

Xu Yuan's expression didn't change much, he just said it calmly.

"Okay."

Li Yanbin smiled and nodded.

"Then, Professor Guo, please follow me."

Saying that, Li Yanbin made a gesture of invitation towards Guo Hao.

Guo Hao nodded and followed Li Yanbin into the Binjiang Banquet.

"Secretary Li!"

As soon as they entered the Binjiang Banquet, the hotel manager's face was full of smiles as he greeted Li Yanbin.

"Is this the distinguished guest you mentioned? He looks a bit familiar!"

The manager said with a smile towards Li Yanbin.

"Professor Guo is extraordinary, he has been on various news reports many times, you must have seen him on some news!"

Li Yanbin said with a smile.

"Is that so!"

The manager looked at Guo Hao with some surprise.

Guo Hao smiled at the manager.

"Heroes emerge from youth!"

The manager complimented Guo Hao a few times.

As they talked.

The manager guided Secretary Li and Guo Hao to the private room on the third floor.

"What kind of wine is this? I asked for Feitian Maotai! Feitian Maotai! I want fifteen-year aged! What did you bring me???"

They had just reached the private room door.

Director Wang's somewhat angry voice came from inside the private room.

"Oh!"

Hearing this voice, Manager Qian's expression suddenly changed, and he didn't care to exchange pleasantries with Guo Hao and Secretary Li beside him.

He opened the private room door.

A girl wearing a hotel waitress uniform stood in the private room with a look of fear on her face.

"I... I'm sorry..."

The girl's face was full of fear, and she stammered towards Director Wang.

"Go! Go change the wine for me!"

Director Wang frowned tightly and said to the girl with some authority.

"Director Wang, sorry, sorry, she is new and doesn't understand the rules, we will change the Maotai for you right away, this time, we will give you a discount, give you a discount."

Manager Qian quickly said to Director Wang.

"Mm."

Director Wang nodded, his gaze fell on Guo Hao at the private room door, and the slightly angry look on his face now turned into a smile.

"Professor Guo! You've arrived!"

"Mm!"

Guo Hao nodded, but his gaze did not fall on Director Wang, instead, he turned his head, and his eyes fell on the female waitress beside him.

"Long time no see, Zhao Ying."

Guo Hao's eyes were calm, without much fluctuation.

Hearing Guo Hao's words, most of the people in the private room showed surprised expressions in their eyes.

Especially Zhao Ying.

She suddenly raised her head, looking at Guo Hao beside her with surprise.

Over the years, Zhao Ying had heard too many things about Guo Hao, even if she didn't deliberately try to understand, these things would still flood into her ears from all directions.

There was no escaping it.

After the College Entrance Examination ended, she didn't do badly, barely getting into a first-tier university.

According to her family's wishes, she applied for a management major.

During the winter break, she came to the Binjiang Banquet for an internship through her family's connections.

She didn't expect to cause trouble soon after arriving, and even more unexpectedly, she met Guo Hao just when she was causing trouble.

Zhao Ying stared blankly at Guo Hao beside her.

At this moment, she didn't know what complicated language to use to describe her feelings.

From the initial dislike of Guo Hao to the later liking.

To the very end, her regret.

"You know this waitress?"

Director Wang's voice beside her interrupted Zhao Ying's thoughts.

"We know each other, high school classmates, didn't expect to meet here."

Guo Hao smiled and said nonchalantly.

"Is that so!"

Director Wang said with a smile.

"Since she is Professor Guo's acquaintance, then let's forget about this matter today, Manager Qian, you help me change the Maotai, and this matter will be over!"

"Okay, okay! Thank you, Director Wang! Thank you!"

Manager Qian quickly said.

"Hurry up and thank Director Wang!"

At this moment, Manager Qian quickly winked at Zhao Ying.

"Tha... Thank you..."

"Alright, go out."

Director Wang said calmly.

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Saying that, Manager Qian led Zhao Ying out of the private room.

Zhao Ying looked at Guo Hao beside her with complicated eyes, and it wasn't until the private room door was closed and she couldn't see Guo Hao's figure that Zhao Ying slowly withdrew her gaze.

But apart from the first glance, Guo Hao didn't cast another glance at Zhao Ying afterwards.

"Come, come, come! Professor Guo, please have a seat!"

Inside the private room.

Director Wang's face was full of smiles as he motioned for Guo Hao to sit down.

Meanwhile, outside the private room.

"You're lucky this time! Director Wang's temper isn't exactly good! But speaking of which, how do you know Professor Guo Hao? He's a true distinguished guest!"

Manager Qian's eyes were full of curiosity as he looked at Zhao Ying and asked.

Zhao Ying was silent for a while.

"He was my high school classmate, we knew each other in high school."

"That's great!"

Manager Qian said with a hint of excitement in his eyes, looking at Zhao Ying.

"Alright, you can put down all your work today, as long as you can take good care of the guests in this private room, I'll triple your salary for today!"

".........Okay..."

A hint of hesitation appeared in Zhao Ying's eyes.

She originally wanted to refuse the manager, but for some reason, she inexplicably agreed to the manager.

"Alright, go and change the wine first!"

Manager Qian's face showed excitement at this moment.

If he could please Director Wang this time, it would be a great thing for him.

The two carried a box of Maotai over.

After arranging the Maotai on the table.

"Everyone, please enjoy your meal and drinks. If there's anything, just ask Zhao Ying, and if she can't handle it, she will definitely come to me."

Manager Qian said with a smile on his face to the people at the table.

"Mm."

Director Wang glanced at Zhao Ying next to him and waved his hand at Manager Qian.

Manager Qian smiled and left the private room, closing the private room door behind him.

"Come, come, come! Professor Guo, eat the dishes, eat the dishes!"

Director Wang urged Guo Hao to eat the dishes.

His face was full of smiles.

"Professor Guo is the greatest pride of our Gan City! For a hundred years, or even several hundred years, it's not certain that our Gan City will produce a top genius like Professor Guo!"

Director Wang said, smiling at Guo Hao.

Zhao Ying, who was standing nearby serving, heard Director Wang's words, her heart stirred slightly, and she looked at Guo Hao beside her with slightly unfocused eyes.

She didn't know what she was thinking.

Guo Hao's expression was very calm.
