Chapter 14: Is it okay to mention your life?
The next day soon arrived.
The veteran Li Zhengtao came with great fanfare. In order to welcome this veteran in the entertainment industry, the director even booked a banquet at the best winery in town.
When Jiang Nanxi saw Li Zhengtao, she stared at his face and studied it for a while, and found that this guy not only had sexual relations with female students, but also had a murder on his shoulders!
The guests entered the box.
Everyone greeted Li Zhengtao enthusiastically, especially Song Wanwan and Shen Lan, who kept surrounding Li Zhengtao and called him "Old Li" happily.
The food was served and they were still standing at the door, laughing and chatting.
Jiang Nanxi entered the box first, found the best seat and sat down to eat.
She just sat down and then found that Liu Qingyan didn't say hello to Li Zhengtao.
He sat at the other end of the table, looking at the food on the table, with no expression on his face and a distant look, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.
"Finally, we're done talking!"
After a long while, Li Chu ran over and sat down next to Jiang Nanxi.
Li Zhengtao hadn't sat down yet, and even if the others had sat down, they wouldn't have dared to pick up their chopsticks to eat.
Li Chu saw Jiang Nanxi already peeling nuts and eating them. He reached out his hand, grabbed the fattest hairy crab on the table, put it in the bowl, and prepared to show it off.
"Nanxi."
Li Chu couldn't help but remind her, "Put the crabs back quickly. Mr. Li hasn't sat down yet. We can't move the things on the table.
The director just said that today's tasks will be assigned by Mr. Li, so we have to leave a good impression on him, otherwise it would be bad if he assigns us a difficult task!"
It's not Li Zhengtao's turn to be assigned a task. Maybe it won't be long before he ends up in jail!
With a clang.
Jiang Nanxi grabbed the second fattest hairy crab on the table and put it into Li Chu's bowl.
"Eat yours, who cares."
At this time, Li Zhengtao and the director looked in their direction. Li Chu was so scared that her face turned pale and she didn't dare to touch the hairy crabs in the bowl.
"Mr. Li, I...we..."
Li Chu saw Jiang Nanxi chewing on a hairy crab and stammered as he tried to explain for her, but then Li Zhengtao's voice came over, "This girl is a stranger. I've never seen her before. Is she new?"
The director replied, “Yes.”
Li Zhengtao added, "Since you're new here, let me introduce myself to everyone and raise a glass to toast everyone."
Jiang Nanxi: "I can't drink."
She said this out of the blue, and the atmosphere became awkward, and Li Zhengtao's expression became even more ugly.
Perhaps not expecting a newcomer to refuse him, Li Zhengtao said, "Why can't young people drink? What's the harm in having one drink? Everyone here is a big shot. I asked you to raise a glass first. Toasting everyone is also to promote goodwill among us."
The director also tried to smooth things over, saying, "Nanxi, Mr. Li is a veteran in the entertainment industry and is friends with many big directors and well-known producers. If he asks you to raise a glass, just raise one. Maybe he can introduce you to some resources later."
This wasn't the first time he was urged to drink at the table. In his previous life, Jiang Nanxi had to rush to toast in order to get resources and help Shen Lan get promoted.
But Jiang Nanxi deeply dislikes the drinking culture in the entertainment industry. To put it nicely, it's just about getting to know each other, but to put it bluntly, it's just about taking advantage of the alcohol to act like a gangster and act like a big shot.
If she were in her previous life, she would probably just raise her glass with low emotional intelligence and say to them:
I'm grateful to the director for introducing me to a senior like Mr. Li. It's my honor to meet him today. I'm Jiang Nanxi, and I hope everyone in the industry will support and care for me in the future.
But in this life, as a highly emotionally intelligent demon who had spent thousands of years in hell, Jiang Nanxi simply held up an empty wine glass and said to Li Zhengtao, "Mr. Li, I'm not very good at serving wine, but can I serve your life?"
Li Zhengtao: ???
Director: !!!
The audience watching the live broadcast were stunned.
[Oh my god, what is Jiang Nanxi doing?! Does she want to quit the entertainment industry?!]
[Li Zhengtao is the president of the Imperial Capital Film Academy and has many connections and resources. How dare a small-time celebrity like Jiang Nanxi do this?!]
When the director heard Jiang Nanxi's words, his pupils trembled and he quickly stood up and spoke.
"Jiang Nanxi, how can you talk like that? Come over here and pour Mr. Li a glass of wine to apologize!"
Jiang Nanxi looked bewildered, "Huh?"
Director: "What are you talking about? Mr. Li asked you to bring the wine because he wanted to give you, a newcomer, face. How could you say such things to him?"
Jiang Nanxi continued to be confused: "Huh?"
The director was going crazy, and said frantically, "Jiang Nanxi, what's wrong with you? You're having an attack again!"
Jiang Nanxi: "I don't understand, smecta."
Director: ???
When the director collapsed, Shen Lan quickly found the right opportunity to get close to Mr. Li, "Mr. Li, don't bother with this kind of person. She is a psychopath. I offer you a toast.
It is such an honor for us to meet you today!"
Li Zhengtao's expression was extremely ugly. Even when Chen Lan toasted him, he was in no mood to drink.
Shen Lan drank a glass and poured one for Li Zhengtao. Li Zhengtao not only did not drink it, but also sneered, "I'm old and useless, so I won't drink it."
Shen Lan held up the cup awkwardly.
Jiang Nanxi spoke again, "Mr. Li, what you said is the same as what your wife said. But I think it's not that you are old and useless, but that you are useless because you are old!"
"What did you say!"
This time.
Li Zhengtao wanted to kill Jiang Nanxi. His face flushed and he stood up suddenly.
[Jiang Nanxi is really crazy. How dare she say anything?]
[This is over, I have completely offended Mr. Li! ]
[Jiang Nanxi, you idiot, just wait to be banned! ]
The audience and guests at the scene couldn't believe it. They didn't expect that she would not only speak rudely to Li Zhengtao once, but also hit Li Zhengtao in the face every time.
The director was even more desperate.
He invited Li Zhengtao, a famous director and university president, to come over because he wanted to make friends with him, but now everything has been ruined by Jiang Nanxi!
Instead of making friends, we ended up making enemies!
The atmosphere in the box was extremely depressing.
No one dared to speak, but Jiang Nanxi stood up and walked towards Li Zhengtao.
"Mr. Li, I'm sorry. I'm a bit blunt. Let me pour you a glass of wine to make amends!"
The director felt relieved for a moment, thinking that Jiang Nanxi was not completely crazy and still had moments of normality!
I hope Jiang Nanxi will apologize sincerely. Lord Li Zhengtao is magnanimous and should not take this matter to heart. Don’t make things difficult for him in the future!
Jiang Nanxi came to Li Zhengtao to pour wine, but just as the wine was poured, the glass fell over.
Jiang Nanxi was surprised for a moment. "Mr. Li, why did the wine glass fall over out of nowhere? The wine spilled on the ground is for ghosts, not people. I heard that a female student from the Imperial Capital Film Academy jumped off the building last week. Is her ghost following you and wanting to drink too?"
Others: !!!
Director: ???
Haha, my heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down.
He and Jiang Nanxi are finished together!
