Chapter 766: A Bit Disappointing Tonight
"Leader? Li Quan, isn't he a senior executive of your Mingliu Group?"
After hearing Li Quan's words, several people who were sitting there chatting came to their attention. The old squad leader Wang Hao, who was the organizer, asked in surprise.
"Well, maybe the boss of our technical department will come over too."
Seeing the astonished looks on their faces, Li Quan, feeling proud of himself tonight, replied in a reserved manner.
In terms of his personal wealth and background alone, Li Quan admitted that he was not as good as many people present.
However, the reputation of their celebrity group is enough to overwhelm the sum of all the people present.
Especially when his direct superior mentioned that the head of the department would also come, that was a great honor for him.
Otherwise, he would be too embarrassed to ask his classmates to invite people from the company to come over for a free meal.
"That must be no problem. Li Quan, ask how many people are there in your company, and I'll ask the waiter to add some more dishes."
Yang Bin, one of the organizers, said this in a generous manner.
If you can build a good relationship with the department head of a billion-dollar group, you will never lose out.
"Well, let me talk to our boss."
Seeing the behavior of several high school classmates who came from well-off families, Li Quan, who understood the situation, smiled and went aside to make a phone call to his boss.
As for contacting the department head, that is his boss's authority.
"Except for this seafood and dessert, tonight's buffet was a bit disappointing."
Less than an hour after the banquet began, Wang Xiaoxiao, who was only about 60% full, leaned back in her chair and touched her flat stomach with emotion.
“Are you full?”
Zhou Anan asked this question after drinking a bowl of seafood porridge and not having much appetite.
After being teased by that high school female classmate with a nice figure, he didn't feel like eating any of these things. Instead, he wanted to eat some oysters and chestnuts to supplement his nutrition.
"It's okay. How about you take me out for a midnight snack after we get back?"
There were no real friends she knew at the reunion, and bored Wang Xiaoxiao had already started planning her evening schedule.
"OK."
Zhou Anan would naturally not let go of Miss Wang's request.
Coincidentally, he had the same idea.
"Xiaoxiao, we were talking about a gathering among female classmates in the next two days. Are you interested in joining us?"
Just as Zhou Anan and the other person were chatting and eating, Kong Lumeng, who had a nice figure, came over again and invited Wang Xiaoxiao, but her eyes inadvertently fell on the man who was not looking away.
"In two days, I don't know if I'll be free."
After thinking about it, Wang Xiaoxiao tactfully expressed her unwillingness to go.
To be honest, if she hadn't accidentally agreed to come before, she wouldn't have wanted to come to this class reunion today.
I have no idea what the point of that so-called female classmates reunion is.
After four years of college and more than half a year of social experience after graduation, everyone has lost their original simple thoughts. A good class reunion has turned out to be full of different circles.
"It's nothing, just chatting about fashion, doing spa treatments, and enhancing the friendship between us women. It's settled then, you have to come, I'll send you the address."
After saying a few words, Kong Lumeng walked back to the circle with an elegant posture without giving Wang Xiaoxiao any room to refute.
What reason does a woman who is supported by a wealthy sponsor have to refuse their invitation?
“.”
Before she could clearly express why she didn't want to go, Wang Xiaoxiao found that the other party had already left, leaving her at a loss for words.
Today's high school classmates seem really boring.
"Young lady, your female high school classmates seem to be very strong."
Zhou Anan smiled and teased as he quietly watched the other person finish his performance and leave.
"It's okay. It would be even more annoying if they knew the identities of Xian'er and me."
Regarding this point, Wang Xiaoxiao didn't think the other party was too much. At most, it was just vanity.
Compared to the cold and fickle nature of human relationships she had seen at previous banquets, this high school reunion at least had a somewhat relaxed atmosphere and was not so obviously snobbish.
"So you're going to attend a girls' reunion?"
"We'll see when the time comes. If you're not in a good mood, then I won't go."
"That woman, young lady, please be careful."
Motioning to the female classmate with a good figure who was cheerful and talkative and was able to get along with everyone, Zhou Anan gave some instructions.
Zhou Anan is not worried about safety.
However, he was afraid that Miss Wang's heart would be hurt unnecessary because the newly graduated student Kong was too purposeful in doing things.
A woman who shows her emotions so clearly on her face has no idea that her words are sarcasm when she is chatting, and she even thinks that it is the other person's problem.
"Well, I'll pay attention."
Wang Xiaoxiao nodded seriously, not wanting to have too much interaction with the other party.
They are people from two different worlds.
"My boss and his friends have arrived. I'll go greet them."
Li Quan, who was chatting with Yang Bin and a few others, received a phone call, apologized, and quickly walked out of the hall door.
"Have you heard that Li Quan's boss is coming over?"
"Why is Li Quan's boss here?"
"It seems that he said he came here to eat."
"This is so funny. This is our first high school reunion after graduating from college. What's going on?"
"Yang Bin and the others agreed to this. Li Quan works at Mingliu Group, and his boss seems to be a senior executive of the group."
"Celebrity Group? The Celebrity Group that developed Micro-Customer?"
"Didn't Kong Lumeng dump Li Quan? Why is he working at Mingliu Group? I heard the salary there is very high."
"Who knows? Kong Lumeng's family is so well-off. What can an employee of Mingliu Group do?"
"That's true. Women nowadays are too realistic."
"Boss, the conditions are simple, please don't despise it."
Walking into the banquet hall with his boss and department head, Li Quan said very humbly.
"Li Quan, we just come here to have a meal. We don't have many requests. We are sorry to bother you."
The young manager in his thirties smiled and glanced around casually, seeming quite satisfied with the place where he was going to have dinner tonight.
During Chinese New Year, their company cafeteria did not provide midnight snack service, and there were not many takeout restaurants on Meimei.com. Everyone complained a few words in the work group, and then Li Quan took the initiative to invite them to come over for the buffet.
In fact, according to the small circles in the company, Li Quan, a LV3 team leader, could not integrate into their middle-level circle above LV6.
However, recently the group's gaming company developed an online competitive game, requiring all employees in the technical department to form groups of five and take part in the game's test.
For those of them who are mainly engaged in technical research, simply playing the game is a big challenge, but the rewards for the top three are generous.
The third-place team will have all its members’ salaries increased by one level.
Not to mention the rewards for the top two.
Hundreds of people in the entire department devoted themselves to the formation of the team with great enthusiasm.
Based on some of the company's hints about the new online game, some talents with experience in CS-type games naturally became popular.
Li Quan was personally recruited into the team by Ren Yiheng, the head of the first software department and an M8-level mid-level leader, simply because he had more than five years of CS combat experience.
"That's not the case, Boss. It's an honor for our entire class that you can come."
"Okay, no more polite words. Let's just eat something and then we can go to the internet cafe to practice some exercises when we have time."
Waving his hand, Ren Yiheng said nothing more and led the other three members of the team to the dining area.
"Boss, this is my old high school monitor Wang Hao, and the deputy monitor Yang Bin. Haozi, Ah Bin, this is my leader Ren Ge, one of the top three technical experts in the company. This is..."
Accompanying his boss with food, Li Quan saw the old squad leader and others coming over, and smiled as he introduced the boss of his department and his direct superior.
Of course, he would not say that his boss is only the head of the software department under the technical department, but used a broad concept.
If you talk about the levels of M8 and M9 to these people who don’t understand technology, they won’t understand at all, so it’s better not to say anything.
"Brothers, please feel free to do as you please. If you need anything, please feel free to tell us."
After listening to Li Quan's introduction, Wang Hao and the other man, who were both smart people, did not ask many questions, but greeted him politely.
Even though the other party's status in the celebrity group is unknown, looking at Li Quan's reserved and fawning appearance, the other party's position would not be too low.
In a celebrity group worth tens of billions of dollars, any department leader is someone these people need to befriend or even look up to.
"Thank you very much."
Facing these high school classmates of their subordinates, Ren Yiheng and several others smiled reservedly and were not at all grateful to them for the buffet worth hundreds of dollars.
With their current income, they have no problem eating buffets every day, but there is nowhere to go during the Chinese New Year and they are too lazy to find food.
"Brother Ren, look at that, isn't it..."
While a few people were chatting, a young man who came with Ren Yiheng came up to the boss and pointed to a corner not far away with a look of surprise.
