Chapter Thirty-Three: Don't pretend to be B with brother
Hualiluo Teahouse is the most literary teahouse in Tianyang City. From decoration to service, it is completely retro. The tea masters are all highly paid masters. This is also a favorite place for literature lovers. The teahouse is built in Nanshan and is quiet.
The elegance is perfect for leisurely drinking tea.
With the development of the times, driven by profit, the nouveau riche who are illiterate but wealthy have become regular visitors here. These people come here to find peace of mind, or to conduct shady transactions here.
Lin Yu was invited by Ru Yan. Originally, Ru Yan planned to teach Lin Yu a lesson and let him know what it meant to be a man of heaven and earth. But then she decided to bring Lin Yu, a gangster, to cultivate his sentiments. Today, her friends are either returning from overseas and coming from well-known families.
Either they are wealthy officials, and everyone who comes in and out has a background.
The consumption level in Hualiluo is very high. After Lin Yu parked the car, he realized that his car was the worst. He looked around and saw millions of luxury cars such as Mercedes-Benz and BMW.
In order to change Lin Yu's image, Ruyan specially bought Lin Yu a suit. She didn't know that Lin Yu not only lived in swamp rainforests, but also frequently visited high-end luxury hotels. He traveled almost all over the world for his tasks.
A first-class hotel.
Not only is he not a big boss, but he is also proficient in five languages and is familiar with ancient and modern Chinese and foreign classics. His depth of knowledge is unmatched by anyone in the Fire Blue Group.
"You must pay attention to your image later. Don't say anything you don't understand, otherwise people will laugh at you if you say something wrong. There are many knowledgeable and senior doctors here today, so don't contradict them..." Ruyan ticked.
She kept telling Lin Yu what to pay attention to.
Lin Yu pretended not to know and nodded repeatedly, and from time to time a young man in a suit and leather shoes walked past them.
Arriving at the door of the private room, Ruyan straightened her evening gown, then turned around and straightened Lin Yu's collar before opening the door.
The private room was so big that it was crowded, and many people had already arrived. All kinds of high-end red wine and snacks could be seen everywhere. These people gathered in small groups and whispered about something. We make friends with literature, and books are our souls. Here you can talk about current affairs as you like.
In history, you can use your imagination to express your thoughts. These people regard themselves as literati, and a lot of words will come out when they speak.
Just open your mouth and you will know your literary accomplishments. If you don't understand literature, you will be looked down upon and ridiculed by others.
"Miss Ruyan, you're here!" A tall young man came over and handed over a glass of red wine.
This man was tall, tall, handsome, and a head taller than Lin Yu.
Ruyan took the red wine and smiled slightly, "When did you come back?"
"Oh, I've been back for a few days." The young man looked at Lin Yu and asked, "Is this your bodyguard?"
"No, a friend of mine! His name is Lin Yu." Ruyan smiled at Lin Yu, "This is my classmate who studied abroad, Gao Zhan."
Lin Yu glanced at Gao Zhan. Gao Zhan looked at him condescendingly with eyes full of contempt. Lin Yu really didn't understand why he looked like a bodyguard? Was there something written on his face? This guy clearly looked down on himself.
"Hello!" Lin Yu stretched out his hand. Gao Zhan glanced at Lin Yu and showed no intention of extending his hand. Instead, he turned sideways and looked for his hand at a young man not far away.
Lin Yu retracted his hand angrily. Lin Yu felt unhappy at being disrespected in this way. He glanced at Ru Yan without any attack.
The young man who came over was of medium height, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his nose, and he looked polite.
"Ruyan, let me introduce to you, this is my college classmate, Xie Shuhang."
"Hello!" Xie Shuhang stretched out his hand, and Lin Yu suddenly grabbed Xie Shuhang's hand first, "Hello, I am Miss Ruyan's friend Lin Yu."
"Hello!" Xie Shuhang was a little embarrassed. Ruyan understood that Lin Yu was clearly seeking revenge on Gao Zhan and did so intentionally.
Lin Yu glanced at Gao Zhan, who snorted and said, "Let's go over and talk later." Gao Zhan and Xie Shuhang left angrily. Ruyan pinched Lin Yu and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing?
What’s up?”
"No one is allowed to touch my woman. I hate people wearing glasses!"
"You..." Ruyan was ashamed and angry. She really didn't know what this guy was thinking. Sometimes he was serious and sometimes he was out of tune.
Ru Yan and Lin Yu found a seat and sat down. Next to them sat several middle-aged men wearing glasses who were discussing the Four Books and Five Classics. They were all arguing with each other with red faces and ears.
At this time, Gao Zhan and Xie Shuhang came over, and they sat down next to Ru Yan.
"I asked Mr. Lin, do you understand the Four Books and Five Classics? Do you understand the Confucian classics?" Gao Zhan wanted to teach Lin Yu a lesson in front of everyone.
"What? What are Confucian classics?" Lin Yu deliberately pretended to be stupid.
"You think your behavior of rushing to shake hands just now is very impolite and insulting to elegance. In the Analects of Confucius, Yan Yuan, the Master said that the beauty of a gentleman is not the evil of an adult, but the villain is."
Ruyan wanted to refute Lin Yu but said first: "I just do my duty and act bravely when I see justice."
"Hahaha..." Gao Zhan smiled and said loudly, "You are taking over the guest role and acting as a rude person. How can you be kind and righteous?"
The group of old scholars who were arguing just now turned their heads and looked at Gao Zhan. Gao Zhan crossed his legs and looked at Lin Yu with a smirk on his face.
"Be kind, loving, righteous, and altruistic. If Miss Yan has a drink in her hand, I should step forward to avoid being rude."
Now the eyes of Ru Yan and Gao Zhan changed. This guy is not simple, he actually knows a few Analects of Confucius.
"Humph, Dongshi followed the example. Confucius said, he who can practice the five things in the world is benevolent, respectful, tolerant, trustworthy, sensitive, merciful, respectful in his place, respectful in his work, and loyal to others. If you don't know the rules as a friend, you don't know the propriety in doing things.
, He doesn’t know the importance of what he says, how dare such a person talk about benevolence and righteousness, what a joke!”
Gao Zhan was clearly scolding Lin Yu, and his tone became more and more serious without saving any face. Ru Yan couldn't stand it anymore. She wanted to stop Lin Yu, but Lin Yu's smile seemed unaffected.
"The Master said that a gentleman does something and then refrains from doing something. The way of a gentleman is to do something not to do before he can do something..."
"Doesn't what you said mean being disloyal and unkind?" Gao Zhan asked before Lin Yu could finish speaking.
Lin Yu looked calm and smiled, "Quan, then know the importance, degree, and then know the pros and cons. Can people who criticize others from the moral high ground have noble morals? Be sensitive to things and be cautious in speaking. You must know that there is no way to gain or misfortune. Only people can do it.
To take something from oneself, one must first insult oneself, and then others insult oneself, one must be shameless only to be slapped in the face!”
"good!"
There was a lot of applause around him, and Lin Yu scolded Gao Zhan for humiliating himself, and he knew how to spit shit.
Being scolded by Lin Yu made Gao Zhan, who regarded himself as an academic, very unhappy. He pointed at Lin Yu and said, "Quoting it out of context, Mencius Li Lou said, if you don't follow the six laws, you can't correct the five tones, and if you don't follow the rules, you can't make a circle. If
Without ethical principles, how can we talk about benevolence, righteousness, and morality? If we don’t know the rules and etiquette here, what qualifications do we have to guide others?
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, Mr. Gao, haven't you ever heard of a saying, 'A gentleman doesn't complain about God or others. If he doesn't have a clear mind, he shouldn't do whatever he wants. What's the point of finding so many excuses?"
The atmosphere between the two became more and more intense, but the people around them listened with great interest. It was rare for someone to talk about Confucian classics, and these people wished they could fight for a while longer.
