"Brother Chen Feng, right? Come in, please come in."
Seeing Mu Zhixin standing there dumbfounded and unable to back down, Zhang Mingmei quickly stood up to smooth things over, "My name is Zhang Mingmei, and I work in investment. You and I are practically colleagues. The man next to me is Qi Wende, an internet entrepreneur."
"What kind of internet entrepreneur?"
Qi Wende waved his hand and said, "I'm just a small business owner of a lousy website, a far cry from top talents like Zhixin who are engaged in high-tech research!"
On the surface, Qi Wende's words were a self-deprecating remark, but in reality, he was flattering his good brother Mu Zhixin.
"Wen De, this is just you belittling yourself."
Once he regained his senses, Mu Zhixin said, "Your website has a precise positioning and a stable user base. In terms of business prospects, it is in no way inferior to my Lingsi Technology."
"Hehe, you flatter me, you flatter me."
Qi Wende first shook his head modestly, then steered the conversation towards Chen Feng, "Brother Chen Feng, judging from your age, you should still be a student, right? Where are you studying? Have you started your own business yet?"
"Brother Qi is indeed a discerning eye. To be honest, I am a college student from Gucheng Finance and Economics University, and I just started my freshman year this year."
Chen Feng sat down in the chair and replied with a smile, "I did do some business, but it was just small-scale and nothing compared to yours."
Upon hearing this, Qi Wende and Mu Zhixin exchanged a glance, both revealing a meaningful smile on their faces.
Chen Feng only said two sentences, but they had already analyzed his background with "almost perfect accuracy".
First of all, although Chen Feng is also starting a business, it is a small-scale operation that is not worthy of being discussed in a formal manner, to the point that Chen Feng himself is embarrassed to say what projects he is doing.
Secondly, Chen Feng is a student at Gucheng Finance and Economics University. Gucheng Finance and Economics University has a good faculty and reputation, but it is still far inferior to Mu Zhixin's alma mater, Gucheng Jiaotong University.
The only thing Chen Feng can boast about is his substantial family wealth.
After all, Chen Feng himself has no source of income. If his parents don't have strong financial resources, where would he get the money to invest?
However, Mu Zhixin is also a second-generation rich kid.
Competing based on family connections? Chen Feng might not be able to compete with Mu Zhixin.
In summary, in terms of overall strength, Mu Zhixin is far superior to Chen Feng.
"call!"
Mu Zhixin breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately felt more at ease.
fine.
There is still hope.
If Chen Feng were as outstanding as himself, he probably would never have any hope of winning the heart of the beauty in his lifetime.
"Mingmei, you order food with Brother Chen and Shihan first. Zhixin and I are going to the restroom."
After saying that, Qi Wende put his arm around Mu Zhixin's shoulder and walked out of the private room.
"Didn't you say Chen Shih-han had never been in a relationship?"
At the corner of the corridor, Qi Wende asked Mu Zhixin, "But what's going on now? Chen Shihan has brought her little puppy right in front of you!"
"I'm wondering about that too."
Mu Zhixin scratched his head. "Chen Shihhan is a mature career woman. How could she like a greenhorn like Chen Feng?"
"Isn't that easy to explain?"
Qi Wende glanced at Mu Zhixin and sneered, "Brother may have money but not necessarily spend it on women, but younger brother certainly uses his strength on women!"
"Damn it!"
Seemingly recalling the image of Chen Shihhan being "forced," Mu Zhixin gritted his teeth and cursed, "Where did that kid named Chen Feng come from? He..."
"Alright, alright!"
Qi Wende interrupted impatiently, "Since you've already lost, don't worry about where they came from."
"Lose? I didn't lose!"
Mu Zhixin said with certainty, "Strictly speaking, Shihan and Chen Feng are not even dating."
"I think Shihan was just blinded by that kid's sweet talk. The two of them can't last."
Qi Wende had long anticipated that Mu Zhixin would not give up easily. This guy had been a stubborn child, a typical example of someone who wouldn't turn back until he hit a wall.
"Wen De, I'm afraid you'll have to work hard today."
"Tell me, what do you need me to do?"
"It's simple, just cooperate with me in putting on a show."
Mu Zhixin said coldly, "Shihan is an exceptionally intelligent girl. As long as she sees the gap between Chen Feng and me, I believe she will make the right choice."
"Damn! I really can't stand your pretentious, bookish attitude."
Qi Wende glared at Mu Zhixin. "Just say you want me to play along and pretend to be sophisticated. Why put on such a show? What kind of literary figure are you pretending to be?"
"Ha ha!"
Mu Zhixin burst out laughing, "Wen De, you know me. The thing I dislike most is showing off."
"But in order to protect our love, I have to pretend."
"Perhaps, this is the helplessness of life!"
At this point, Mu Zhixin took out two cigarettes from his pocket and handed one to Qi Wende. "My battle to protect my love is about to begin. Here, have a smoke to perk yourself up."
Qi Wende took the cigarette, and Mu Zhixin lit it for him.
Just you wait and see.
Qi Wende exhaled a smoke ring and said, "In other aspects, I may not be as good as you, but when it comes to showing off, I'm a professional!"
...
The food at Zhenxiu Pavilion is served very quickly.
When Mu Zhixin and Qi Wende returned to the private room after finishing their cigarettes, plates of delicious-looking dishes were already laid out on the table.
"Brother Chen, shall we have a drink?"
Qi Wende, who had sat down again, made the suggestion.
"Brother Qi, why don't you drink with Brother Mu?"
Chen Feng laughed and said, "I don't drink alcohol."
Chen Feng would never tell Qi Wende that he had gotten completely drunk the night before and felt nauseous at the mere smell of alcohol.
"Alright, since Brother Chen doesn't drink, I won't force him."
"Thank you for your understanding, Brother Qi."
Chen Feng responded and began to eat his food in silence.
He had thought that Mu Zhixin would take the initiative to talk about the current situation of Lingsi Technology and raise his funding needs, but to his surprise, Mu Zhixin completely ignored him, his financial backer, and instead chatted enthusiastically with Qi Wende and Zhang Mingmei.
Moreover, the topics the three discussed were quite strange.
Muzhi New Technology Company has a bright future and can easily change people's lifestyles in the near future.
Qi Wende's website is a perfect blend of wisdom and aesthetics, and it will surely attract the attention of netizens across the country.
And then there's Zhang Mingmei's keen eye; the investment company under her name generates astonishing profits...
In short, it's just a variety of ways to flatter each other in business.
Seeing the three people spitting everywhere, Chen Shihhan was completely flustered.
Wasn't the main purpose of this dinner to attract investment for LingSi Technology?
What's the meaning of you three ignoring your sugar daddy and just bragging to yourselves?
