Heart with glazed tiles

Chapter 36 Across 30 Years

Hearing that Chu Liuli said that he would organize such a gathering, Pan Rongxuan couldn't help but be excited: "Liuli, ever since I showed Uncle Chu the video recorded by my parents and my mother, I always wanted them to meet. This gathering is perfect. Yes! Maybe as soon as Uncle Chu is happy, he will completely forgive my dad!" Pan Rongxuan was always calm and rarely so excited.

"Let Uncle Pan prepare well, my mother, brother and I will definitely continue to persuade my father!" Chu Liuli assured Pan Rongxuan.

After hanging up the phone, Pan Rongxuan immediately contacted his father to explain the situation.Pan Yuhai was also very excited after hearing this, and bought a plane ticket to return to Beijing two days later.After more than 20 years of absence, he was able to see his fellow apprentices again, which made him look forward to it.But more importantly, he must make good use of this opportunity to reunite with his junior brother Chu Zhiwei.

After discussing with Chu Liuli and the others, they set the meeting time for the weekend a few days later.Pan Rongxuan knew that besides being keen on the study of ancient architecture, Chu Zhiwei also had a soft spot for traditional Chinese culture.So, he suggested setting the venue for the party at a quaint Chinese restaurant called Juyou.Chu Liuli and the others agreed.

Pan Rongxuan took the initiative to ask for tasks such as contacting restaurants, ordering meals, and arranging the scene.Chu Liuli didn't want to bother him so much, but seeing how confident and enthusiastic he was, she couldn't bear to refuse.

According to the information provided by Chu Liuli, Pan Rongxuan personally participated in the planning of the banquet. From the design of the invitation letter, the layout of the venue, to the dress of the waiters, the selection of dishes, and all aspects of the banquet, he personally checked everything, no matter how big or small.His hard work moved Chu Liuli very much.

For the next few nights, they all got together to discuss the program of the banquet.In the anticipation of everyone, this day finally ushered in.

That morning, Zhang Yifeng flew back to the capital from Shanghai to attend the banquet.After the last project, he was assigned by the company to be in charge of a project in Shanghai, and he hasn't returned to Beijing for almost a month.

"Juyou" Chinese restaurant gathers the ancient mystery, natural restraint and simplicity of the East. The quiet and comfortable banquet atmosphere makes people feel the profound oriental charm.Delphiniums and orchids are elegantly arranged on each table.In it, the fusion of classic and modern is refreshing.

Before arriving at the scene, Guo Yajuan once revealed to her husband that many old acquaintances would attend the banquet that day, all of whom were his seniors and apprentices.

Even though he was mentally prepared, Chu Zhiwei was still taken aback when he came to the restaurant, or rather a surprise.Especially when he saw the big brother, he was so excited that he shed tears first and then laughed. He and big brother Song Fanzhe hadn't seen each other since they parted 20 years ago.Goodbye now, sorry.

In this generation of apprentices, apart from the big apprentice Liu Wenshan, several other apprentices of his were also present.

Being with senior brothers and apprentices, the past reappeared in front of his eyes, Chu Zhiwei felt emotional, time passed too fast, the once young man was full of gray hair in a blink of an eye, and he was no longer the youthful vigor of the past.

After talking with Chu Zhiwei for a while, Song Fanzhe glanced around and said in confusion, "Yuhai called me and said he would come over too. Why hasn't he arrived yet?"

When his brother mentioned Pan Yuhai, Chu Zhiwei's face changed slightly, and he looked at his daughter.

Chu Liuli stepped forward, approached Song Fanzhe with a smile, and said mysteriously, "Uncle Song, Uncle Pan has gone to prepare gifts for you, come here later!"

"Preparing a gift? What gift?" Song Fanzhe asked.

"Uncle Pan didn't say anything, I really don't know. Let's wait a little longer, he should be here soon!" Chu Liuli replied.

Song Fanzhe was confused, but he couldn't ask carefully, so he nodded.

Soon, except for Pan Yuhai, all the participants sat down around the round table.Song Fanzhe was the main seat at the dining table, Chu Zhiwei was on his left, and the seat on the right was vacant.

Pan Rongxuan secretly smiled, his Uncle Chu is really cold-hearted, everyone is here, isn't the seat on the right hand side reserved for his father!

"Why hasn't he come yet? Could it be that everyone at this table is waiting for him?" Chu Zhiwei asked with a straight face.

Chu Liuli naturally knew that his father was referring to Pan Yuhai, and smiled apologetically, "Dad, wait a minute, I'll go and have a look, Uncle Pan should be here soon."

Chu Zhiwei glanced at his daughter, his expression softened slightly.

Although Pan Yuhai is the chairman of the company, he has been busy these days for this gathering spanning 30 years, and he does not regard himself as the chairman.At this moment, he was changing clothes and asked the makeup artist to dress him up, so he was not there.Others don't understand his painstaking efforts and dedication, but Chu Liuli and Pan Rongxuan know it best.

A few minutes later, the closed door of the dining room was pushed open by the waiter.Surrounded by several waiters, Chu Liuli slowly approached pushing the beautifully decorated pulley cart. On the crystal tray was a multi-layered cake.

In order to blend into the classical atmosphere of the restaurant, Chu Liuli changed into a light pink cheongsam with simple style and well-tailored style, with high temples and picturesque black eyebrows. Performed vividly.

From the moment she came in, Pan Rongxuan's gaze had been fixed on her like a spotlight, and he didn't recover until she got close to him, and stood up.

Also paying attention to her is Zhang Yifeng sitting next to Guo Yajuan.From Pan Rongxuan's gaze, he felt a hint of crisis.

Several waiters fixed the cake, and the head waiter said with a smile: "This is the cake that Ms. Chu prepared for the reunion of the teachers today. I wish the teachers have today every year, today every year, and the friendship will last forever!"

Chu Liuli also stepped forward with a smile, sending blessings to her father and the seniors and seniors present.Before she finished speaking, the lights in the private room suddenly brightened, and the accompaniment of Peking Opera "Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy" sounded.The man in the guise of Yang Zirong appeared in front of everyone.

"Crossing forests, crossing snowfields, soaring into the sky! Expressing pride, expressing ambitions, facing the mountains..." His singing is powerful and powerful.

"Who is this?"

"It looks familiar!"

……

The people sitting there talked a lot.Only Chu Zhiwei didn't speak, his deep eyes were covered with mist.

Others couldn't recognize him, but he could tell who the person in front of him was at a glance.

More than 20 years ago, his senior brother Pan Yuhai dressed up like this and sang to him the song "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom".

After a short discussion, everyone quieted down and watched Pan Yuhai's performance intently.

It wasn't until the music stopped and Pan Yuhai got closer that someone called out his name.

"Yuhai, is that you?"

"That's right, I look like Yu Hai!"

While they were talking, Chu Zhiwei got up from his seat and walked slowly towards the man at the door.

Chu Liuli and Pan Rongxuan were worried, they stood up at the same time, and followed.
