Chapter 204 Are you sure you are here to discuss business today?
Tang Yutong quickly corrected her attitude, looked at Chu Ci and said with a smile:
"I still don't know what to call you?"
Chu Ci was amused by her sudden attentiveness, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. This woman really changed her expression faster than turning the pages of a book, but he was not going to let her go so easily.
"Didn't you say last night that there was no need to know my name?"
He deliberately drew out his voice, with a mischievous look in his eyes.
This man is really petty...
Tang Yutong rolled her eyes in her heart, but still kept a perfect smile on her face:
"How can this be the same? Last night we were all out having fun, and that was fine. Now we're talking about work, right? If both parties want to reach a cooperation, we still need to understand the basic situation clearly."
"That's true. Let me formally introduce you, Chu Ci."
"I've heard of you for a long time. It turns out to be Mr. Chu."
Tang Yutong stretched out her hand, ready to complete this business etiquette, but Chu Ci's next words made her hand hang awkwardly in the air.
"Oh? I wonder where Miss Tang heard my name?"
Chu Ci looked at her with curiosity. This time he was really curious, even a little nervous, and his body leaned forward unconsciously.
Did she know about his relationship with Lu Yiran? Was the plan going to be exposed before it even started?
However, Tang Yutong had never heard of Chu Ci's name, so what could she say?
Tang Yutong's fingers froze, and she secretly complained in her heart:
Doesn't this man understand politeness? How can he survive in the business world with this kind of EQ? Is he even making up stories about the company? He's practically a professional charlatan!
From the time Tang Yutong knew him until now, she really couldn't see that he had any business talent, but he did have a lot of tricks to pick up girls.
These thoughts flashed through her mind, and she calmly withdrew her hand:
"I've only heard a little bit about it. I heard other friends mention Mr. Chu, but I don't know if it's you."
Chu Ci secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and the tension in his back finally dissipated.
"It's okay. We'll get used to each other as we work together more."
"yes."
Tang Yutong responded with a dry laugh, and a subtle awkwardness filled the air.
Fortunately, the waiter appeared at the right time and placed exquisite meals on the table, temporarily easing the weird atmosphere.
After the waiter left, Chu Ci smiled and said:
"Their food is pretty good, you should try it."
As Chu Ci spoke, he picked up the cutlery gracefully.
"OK."
Tang Yutong complained in his heart: Do you even need to tell me that? It would be strange if the food in a restaurant with a five-digit average cost was not delicious. I have to make my money back today!
During the meal, Tang Yutong kept leading the conversation towards the cooperation between the two companies. She kept asking about their company's situation, but Chu Ci always responded with a simple answer:
"Miss Tang, it's rare for us to have a meal together. How about we talk about work after dinner?"
Tang Yutong tightened her grip on the dinner knife. No work? Then what was the point of this meal? Hadn't she agreed to dinner just to talk about work?
Tang Yutong became even more suspicious of him. She now felt that Chu Ci was not satisfied with eating and drinking in the company, so he came out to rip her off. Otherwise, why would he avoid talking about the cooperation?
Tang Yutong thought so but didn't show it on his face. After all, he was the customer. If he didn't want to chat, Tang Yutong would concentrate on eating and stop talking.
Chu Ci saw Tang Yutong suddenly fell silent, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. In the end, he could only take the initiative to say:
"I wonder what Miss Tang likes to do?"
Tang Yutong looked up suddenly, her eyes full of vigilance. He was asking about her private life without discussing official business? She almost blurted out:
"Mr. Chu, are you sure you're here to discuss business today, not for a blind date?"
Chu Ci was obviously stunned. It took him three full seconds to come back to his senses. He forced a slightly awkward smile.
"Don't get me wrong, Miss Tang. I'm not interested in you. We're just chatting casually."
"Then let's continue talking about work. After all, this is also a good topic."
Tang Yutong gave a standard business smile. Chu Ci was speechless after hearing her words. He could only lower his head and drink a sip of water to hide his embarrassment.
"Then let's just focus on eating."
Tang Yutong chuckled twice, then ignored him and concentrated on eating.
Seeing this, Chu Ci didn't dare to ask any more questions. He could only put aside the idea of finding out the information for the time being to avoid arousing her suspicion.
Chu Ci put down his cutlery after taking a few bites. He really couldn't eat anymore. He wasn't hungry at all. He had eaten a lot of snacks at the company before.
Seeing him put down his cutlery, Tang Yutong asked in confusion, "You're not going to eat anymore?"
"Well, take your time eating, don't worry, I'll play a game."
As Chu Ci spoke, he waved his phone in front of her, and Tang Yutong saw that he had opened Honor of Kings.
This person loves playing this game so much. He plays it in the morning and even plays another game while eating.
She ignored Chu Ci and continued to eat hard.
Tang Yutong looked at the table full of dishes that had hardly been touched and couldn't help but click her tongue. These were not just dishes, they were clearly real money.
What a spendthrift. He ordered so many dishes even though he wasn't hungry. It's not his money that he spent, so he doesn't feel bad about it.
When Chu Ci finished a game and looked up, the scene in front of him completely stunned him.
All the food on the table had been cleared away. Tang Yutong stuffed her cheeks with food and was still chewing the last bite of food with great effort.
She actually ate all these dishes by herself? Ugh...what a good appetite.
Chu Ci saw that she was quite thin, and he didn't expect that she could eat so much. He even asked tentatively:
"Uh...if that's not enough for you, you can add some more."
Tang Yutong quickly refused: "No... no need, I... I'm full."
Tang Yutong swallowed the food in his mouth with difficulty and burped at an inopportune time.
"belch--"
She hurriedly covered her mouth, her cheeks flushed red instantly:
"Excuse me, I need to go to the bathroom."
Tang Yutong picked up her bag and ran towards the bathroom. She was really exhausted and felt like the food was choking her neck, which was really uncomfortable.
In the bathroom, Tang Yutong felt nauseous from eating too much, but couldn't vomit anything.
She touched up her lipstick in the mirror and took a few deep breaths before she recovered.
Tang Yutong returned to her seat, looked at Chu Ci and said, "Let's go. I'll settle the bill while we're at it."
Tang Yutong was about to walk to the front desk when she was about to speak, but Chu Ci simply raised his hand and grabbed her wrist, blocking her way.
Tang Yutong subconsciously wanted to throw Chu Ci over her shoulder, but fortunately Chu Ci let go on his own initiative and escaped.
"What's wrong?" Tang Yutong frowned and looked at him.
Chu Ci explained, "I've already paid the bill."
