"Hey, let's not talk about work when we're eating. Talking about work makes eating less interesting. We should enjoy good food to the fullest and drink good wine to our heart's content."
Xiao Hua gave He Yu a look.
He Yu immediately understood and quickly poured wine for Xu Xiangqian.
"Mr. Xu, whether we discuss this cooperation or not is not the main thing. Today, since you have honored us with your presence and allowed Mr. Ye and Secretary Yin to have this meal together, we must have a drink to share with you. This wine is made from pure grains. Although it is not very expensive, it is rich and mellow. Mr. Ye and I occasionally have a few drinks."
As He Yu spoke, he poured a glass of wine for himself, Xiao Hua, and Secretary Yin.
He Yu and Xiao Hua raised their glasses in advance. Finally, Xu Xiangqian raised his glass and clinked it with Xiao Hua and He Yu. When Secretary Yin saw that the boss had raised his glass, he quickly raised his glass as well.
Xu Xiangqian finally drank this glass of wine, which proved that there was a great chance for cooperation.
"President Ye looks very young. At such a young age, he was able to attract such a large investment to start Dream East. He is indeed 'quite capable'."
The arrogant CEO Xu finally opened his mouth to speak.
Xiao Hua listened to Xu Xiangqian say the words "some ability," and felt as if he was deliberately emphasizing them.
But none of that matters. She's there to attract investment and grow her business, not to find a man to marry and settle down with. What he thinks doesn't matter to her.
"It's not about skill or ability, it's just good luck. I met a benefactor. I'm sure Mr. Xu knows who gave me my first sum of money."
Xiao Hua deliberately steered the conversation towards Xu Xiangqian.
"It seems that President Ye and President Zhou have a very close relationship."
Xu Xiangqian continued sarcastically.
"To be honest, my relationship with Mr. Zhou is quite close. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call Mr. Zhou a spendthrift."
Initially, I was Mr. Zhou's son's tutor, and later I worked as Mr. Zhou's translator. We've known each other for quite a while. When Mr. Zhou learned that I wanted to start Dream East, he listened to my entrepreneurial ideas and thought they were novel. He figured that one or two million yuan wasn't much money for him, so he became my first investor. In retrospect, Mr. Zhou is truly a benefactor in my life.
Xiao Hua explained her relationship with Zhou Musheng in a few words, but in fact, she was too lazy to explain.
However, she didn't take Xu Xiangqian's veiled remarks to heart.
However, since this is a completely fabricated story, it's still necessary to explain it, so as not to tarnish Zhou Musheng's reputation.
"More than just a noble person."
Xu Xiangqian's ambiguous smile made Xiaohua feel somewhat annoyed.
If it weren't for the few coins in his pocket, which I happened to need myself...
She would have already thrown a glass of wine in his face and slapped him hard across the face.
"Mr. Xu, you know what, he really is just a benefactor. I was thinking of developing other relationships, but Mr. Zhou has seen and dated all kinds of beauties. Would he even look at me, a wild vegetable from the mountains? Besides, if we really had that kind of relationship, would I need to go through all this trouble to ask you for investment?"
Xiao Hua's words were absolutely true. If she really became Zhou Musheng's woman, no matter how much money she wanted, Zhou Musheng wouldn't give it to her. Why would she need to put up with this jerk's temper?
Damn it, he's just got a few stinking bucks. I've laughed along, drunk along, and endured all the humiliation.
Is it interesting that he's still making insinuations?
Forget it, I'll just have to put up with it for the sake of the coins in his pocket!
"It seems that President Ye was eager to offer himself up, and President Zhou didn't take a liking to him? I didn't know that President Ye liked to do business this way!"
Xu Xiangqian's words were more foul than his own excrement.
Xiaohua's face turned cold. She poured herself another glass of wine, tilted her head back, and downed it in one gulp, leaving not a drop. She then slammed the glass down on the table.
"Mr. Xu, you are supposed to be someone important, but from the moment I appeared in this private room, you haven't given me a friendly look. After that, you spoke veiledly, always trying to steer the conversation towards matters of the heart. Is it that I, as a woman, don't understand how to do business, or is Mr. Xu simply enjoying doing business with women this way, and then judging others by his own standards?"
After Xiaohua finished her drink, she stood up and said to He Yu, "Sister Yu, you continue to entertain President Xu and Secretary Yin. I'll be leaving now. There's no need to talk to them about cooperation. They have no intention of cooperating with us. They are our guests, so just enjoy the meal with them."
After saying that, Xiaohua picked up her bag and left.
