|c"Boss Zhao, just call me Ye Li. Thank you for inviting us to the exhibition." Facing the other party's enthusiastic greeting, Ye Li remained as steady and dignified as ever.
"Boss Ye is so polite. The main reason I invited you all here this time is to apologize to you. The second reason is to participate in the exhibition."
"What do you mean?" Nie Fan asked.
"Brother Nie Fan, I'm really sorry about the last order. I didn't mean to breach the contract. I did encounter some force majeure at the time. I invited everyone here to apologize to you. I hope we can put aside the past grudges and continue to cooperate!"
Since Zhao Ziming broke the contract last time, Nie Fan and the others no longer care about Zhao Ziming. Zhao Ziming originally wanted to buy a batch of clothes from Ye Li, but these people ignored him. This made Zhao Ziming realize that the other party might have lost trust in him.
A few days ago, Zhao Ziming signed a big order with a foreign client, and the client wanted to order clothes previously supplied by Ye Li's factory. So in order to eliminate the rift between the two companies, Zhao Ziming invited Ye Li and her friends to come over under the pretext of a trade show.
"Boss Zhao, you are serious. We are talking business. There is no grudge between us. We are very happy to be invited this time. May I ask how Boss Zhao has arranged the exhibition in the next few days?"
Ye Li didn't want to listen to Zhao Ziming's explanation about the last breach of contract. After all, breach of contract in business is a common thing. To put it bluntly, cooperation and breach of contract are nothing more than the two situations of being profitable and making no money.
"Boss Ye, don't worry about how the exhibition is arranged. I have already arranged the itinerary for the next few days. Just leave it to me. Boss Ye must not have had time to go around when he came to Hai City last time. I will treat you these few days and take you to appreciate the scenery of Hai City. This is the fashion capital."
...
...
"I'm so sorry. How can we let Mr. Zhao spend money? We can take care of all the expenses ourselves." Ye Li didn't want to take advantage of Zhao Ziming. Businessmen are profit-seeking. If there was no profit, Zhao Ziming would not entertain them so warmly.
"How can that be possible? How can I ask you to pay money when you come to my territory? If Boss Ye thinks highly of me, Zhao, then you can follow my arrangements without any worries!"
Zhao Ziming had said so much, Ye Li could not argue any more. She smiled and nodded, and stopped talking.
"Oh, it's noon already. Ladies and gentlemen, I have booked a restaurant. Let's have lunch together." Boss Zhao said as he stood up and led the way out of the reception room.
"Sister Ye Li, what do you think Zhao Ziming is doing? I never thought he was such a hospitable person before." Zhou Lin whispered while holding Ye Li's arm.
"There must be something wrong when things are not normal. Let's wait and see." After Ye Li said this, he took Zhou Lin's arm and walked out to the living room.
Lunch was arranged at a big hotel. Zhao Ziming specially booked a large private room that could accommodate more than a dozen people.
In addition to Ye Li and the other three, Zhao Ziming also brought four executives from the company. The meals were all served with expensive dishes.
All kinds of food, such as sea cucumbers and shark fins, were served on the table.
Nie Fan, Zhou Lin and others couldn't take their eyes off the dishes when they saw them on the table. This was truly a waste of money.
"Don't be polite, just treat it as your own home and be casual. Come, let's raise our glasses together to welcome Boss Ye and everyone else!" Zhao Ziming said as he raised his glass.
Seeing this, the others also raised their glasses. The atmosphere in the private room was harmonious and friendly.
After three rounds of drinking, Ye Li and the others clearly felt that they had drunk too much. Several executives brought by Zhao Ziming took turns to toast. Ye Li was not very good at drinking, so he didn't drink much, but he also felt a little uncomfortable. Zhou Lin was similar to Ye Li, and both of them could not drink much.
Nie Fan and Qian Zhi drank the most. In order to prevent the female comrades from being forced to drink, the two of them blocked a lot of wine for them.
The lunch took three hours!
Seeing that Nie Fan and Qian Zhi were about to fall, Ye Li suggested ending it there.
"No, Boss Ye, when we entertain guests, we pay attention to the good food and drinks. You have eaten well now. But you haven't drunk enough yet. You and the little girl next to you still have to drink more. Come, Zhao will offer a drink to the two of you!" Seeing that Ye Li and Zhou Lin were still sober, Zhao Ziming continued to pour them wine.
"No, we two can't drink much. So, since you are entertaining us, you must base it on our request. Let's follow the guests' wishes. Everyone present, let's raise our glasses and have a drink! It's a perfect end to this lunch!" After Ye Li said this, he stood up, picked up the wine glass, gestured to everyone, and then drank the wine in the glass.
"Okay! Then we'll listen to Boss Ye. Let's raise our glasses together! I wish our cooperation will last forever!" Zhao Ziming then drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.
The three-hour lunch finally ended. Zhao Ziming sent someone to send Ye Li and others back to the Fugui Hotel.
As soon as they entered the hotel room, Nie Fan and Qian Zhi lay down on the bed and fell asleep. After Ye Li and Zhou Lin settled the two of them, they left the room and went to the next room.
"Sister Ye Li, drink some water. You just drank so much." Zhou Lin poured a glass of water and handed it to Ye Li, and she also poured a glass for herself.
"Water still tastes better. I don't know why so many people like to drink white wine. It's spicy and intoxicating." Ye Li held the water glass and took small sips of the water, unable to help but sigh.
"I don't know. I don't understand it either. It's not as good as orange soda." Zhou Lin doesn't like drinking liquor either. But there are some occasions where she can't not drink it. So she often forces herself to drink it.
"Don't think about it. I don't know what Zhao Ziming will do next. Don't arrange any more banquets. It's really too much!" Ye Li felt a headache when she thought that Zhao Ziming would arrange all the activities for the next few days. She didn't know what activities he would arrange.
"Never mind. If another banquet is arranged, we'll just cancel it! I don't want to drink continuously." When Zhou Lin thought about drinking again, she felt her stomach churning, and the white wine that she had just forced herself to drink wanted to burst out.
"Ugh... I can't take it anymore. I have to go vomit all the wine. It's so uncomfortable. My head is dizzy and my stomach is bloated!" After saying that, Zhou Lin ran to the toilet and vomited the wine.
After vomiting for a while, Zhou Lin rinsed her mouth and came out. She sat on the bed with a look of regret on her face.
"What's wrong? Are you still not feeling well?"
Ye Li noticed that Zhou Lin's expression looked a little strange and thought she was feeling uncomfortable.
"I vomited a lot of wine. But... I wasted all the good food I ate!" Zhou Lin vomited out the sea cucumbers, shark fins, and other things she had eaten along with the white wine. She had never eaten such high-quality ingredients before. This level of consumption was not something that ordinary people could afford. Even though she had made a lot of money now, she couldn't bear to go to a high-end restaurant to eat such a meal.
