When Mr. Li visited Jing City, he returned with a young girl by his side.
<...Chapter 216: Deliberate Difficulty at the Wine Table
At around seven in the evening, the two of them set out from the villa. Drinking was inevitable tonight, so Fan Sizhu was the one driving.
The place we agreed to meet was some distance away from the villa, and we arrived at our destination at around eight o'clock.
Lin Shutang habitually took Li Yansheng's hand and went upstairs. When they entered the box, everyone was already there, and only two seats were left.
There was one main seat and another near the door, and people were already sitting on both sides of the main seat.
"Boss Li is here, please sit down, we are waiting for you."
A CEO spoke first and enthusiastically. Lin Shutang was right next to Li Yansheng, but was completely ignored. It was obvious that the other party didn't take her seriously at all.
Li Yansheng glanced at the host, a smile on his face, but it didn't reach his eyes. This half-smile expression was somewhat puzzling.
Li Yansheng didn't sit down. He extended his hand to beckon the staff waiting at the door. His voice was neither too loud nor too soft, but just loud enough for everyone to hear: "810, open a table for my wife and prepare tableware for two. I'll be up in a moment."
The moment the words fell, the expressions of the several CEOs in the private room changed. Only CEO Zhang didn't seem to care much. He said, "Well, just prepare one person. CEO Li has agreed to drink with us today."
Hearing this, the boss next to Mr. Zhang almost wanted to throw Mr. Zhang out.
This idiot, can't he see the situation clearly? Li Yansheng is obviously serious about this little girl. He wouldn't think she's just playing around, would he? Also, what does it mean that Mr. Li agreed to drink with them? What does it mean that Mr. Li agreed to drink with them?
In his heart, Mr. Zhang still didn't take Lin Shutang seriously. He just thought that Li Yansheng was still in the new period of his affection for Lin Shutang, so he naturally doted on her a little.
Seeing that Mr. Zhang wanted to say something, the boss who was narrating immediately spoke first: "No, no. We just thought that Mrs. Li was tired today and probably wouldn't come, so we didn't reserve a seat for her. Just move her."
To be honest, there are two empty seats, which is a lie. But it's better to say something than nothing!
Thinking this, the CEO started to move. Seeing this, the other CEOs also echoed what he had just said and moved.
While doing this, several people glanced at Mr. Zhang.
Someone complained in his heart that this upstart should be approached with caution. If you're not careful, you'll end up meeting a fool.
Lin Shutang has been to many dinner parties with Li Yansheng, but this is the first time he has seen such a scene. For a moment, he found it a little funny.
In less than two minutes, the main seat and the seat on the left were vacated. Li Yansheng said nothing more and took Lin Shutang to sit down.
Lin Shutang thought that among the people at the table, Li Yansheng must have the best conditions. Because during the meal, she saw several CEOs take turns to toast him.
Li Yansheng gave them face and agreed to all of their requests, except for Mr. Zhang.
Lin Shutang had almost finished his meal. He put down his bowl and chopsticks and began to sip the soup with a spoon. Then he saw Mr. Zhang, who was sitting a few seats away, stand up, as if he wanted to toast Li Yansheng again.
Li Yansheng continued talking to the person next to him, completely oblivious to his expression. Everyone at the table could see that Li Yansheng didn't want to pay attention to him. But Mr. Zhang was also incredibly careless, pulling out a chair and moving over to Li Yansheng's side.
This time, Li Yansheng agreed, but he didn't bring a wine glass, but Lin Shutang's tea cup.
