??Chapter 339: Likes to create atmosphere!
Meng Chuyuan has three-dimensional facial features and a cool white skin. She looks very clean and has a cool temperament without makeup. She only puts on makeup to look better.
Perhaps even Lu Qingye didn't expect Meng Chuyuan to go out with makeup on, so he couldn't help but look at her a few more times.
Meng Chuyuan sat up straight, tilted his head to look at him, and whispered with a hint of complaint: "It's all to make you look good."
Otherwise... she wouldn't be in the mood to make such a fuss!
In order to avoid a dull moment, Meng Chuyuan took the initiative to chat with him: "Who are we going to meet later?"
"Go meet some shareholders of the company."
Meng Chuyuan nodded thoughtfully, and after a while she asked, "Should I prepare a gift for them?"
Thinking about the first meeting, should she do something?
Lu Qingye: "No need, it's just a meal."
"Then tell me who they are? Let me familiarize myself with them first."
Lu Qingye listed a few elders who were more important and easier to recognize: "The short, puffy one who talks a lot is Director Xia, and the one with a lot of white hair and who likes to smoke is Director Ying... Director Xia is always trying to stir things up and is quite direct in his words. We just have to listen to whatever he says. Our dad and Jiang Yi are here too."
"Assistant Yang mentioned earlier that when you first took office, you were often met with cold shoulder from the directors. Was it Director Xia who was behind this?"
Meng Chuyuan suddenly remembered that she had heard Assistant Yang complain about this matter when she was in the hospital, so when Lu Qingye mentioned Director Xia in particular, she thought of the same thing.
Lu Qingye responded calmly: "When I first joined the company, he was right to question me."
At that time, no one saw Lu Qingye's true value and strength, so it was normal not to trust him.
Meng Chuyuan lowered his eyes and muttered, "I like to create an atmosphere..."
At this moment, Lu Qingye's hand suddenly reached out and interlocked his fingers with hers, gently shaking them. "Don't be nervous, I'm here."
——
Half an hour later, Meng Chuyuan and Lu Qingye came to the box.
As soon as he entered the door, Meng Chuyuan heard hearty laughter coming from inside.
Director Xia happened to be the first to notice them coming in. Glancing at Meng Chuyuan standing next to Lu Qingye, he exclaimed in surprise, "Mr. Lu is here? And he brought his wife with him!"
"Hello, uncle. You must be Mr. Xia." Meng Chuyuan walked into the room calmly and said gracefully, "I have heard of your great name for a long time. I am honored to meet you today."
Director Xia narrowed his eyes and smiled, looking at Meng Chuyuan and said, "You are an interesting girl, not bad! And quite polite."
Meng Chuyuan greeted each elder humbly, then took a seat with Lu Qingye.
"Mr. Lu, you're late tonight." Director Xia held an unlit cigarette in his hand and pointed at Lu Qingye with a flick of his wrist. "How about you drink three glasses of wine as punishment?"
Before Lu Qingye could speak, Director Xia called the waiter over and said, "Come, fill up the wine."
Meng Chuyuan raised his eyes and looked at Director Xia who was sitting across from him. With a faint smile on his face, he said gently, "Uncle Xia, it's so cold, why don't we just not drink it?"
Director Xia frowned and looked at Meng Chuyuan seriously. "It's so cold, what's there to be afraid of? Drinking can warm you up... I remember you were good at drinking. You drank with the director on some show. Why didn't you drink when you were having dinner with the uncles today? Do you think we old guys are not respectful enough?"
Others also cheered: "That's right."
Lu Qingye moved his lower lip and was about to explain when Meng Chuyuan pressed his thigh with one hand and told him not to speak.
Meng Chuyuan smiled and said, "How could that be possible? I'm worried that my uncles will get drunk and bother my aunt when they get home, and she will dislike them."
“…” After Meng Chuyuan said this, everyone fell silent.
Director Xia's face darkened for a moment, and after a while, he finally began to relax: "Then tea instead of wine should be fine, right?"
Meng Chuyuan shook his head and said calmly, "Drinking tea late at night can easily cause insomnia."
Director Xia: “…”
Lu Quanyu sat in the main seat, silently watching Meng Chuyuan chatting with them, with a bit of admiration in his eyes.
"Old Lu, your wife is quite something." Director Ying was watching the fun from the side, and did not forget to whisper with Lu Quanyu.
Lu Quanyu said calmly, "It's more than just something."
Finally, someone stood up to deal with these old guys, and he was so happy that he couldn't contain his joy.
The waiter stood in front of the table, holding the bottle of wine, looking at a loss.
After Director Xia fell silent, the atmosphere fell into a brief awkwardness.
After a while, someone finally stepped forward to smooth things over: "Old Xia, what the young lady said makes sense. Why are you drinking tea so late at night? You're so old and still making such a fuss."
Director Xia was a little angry and said in a serious tone: "Then tell me what you want to drink!"
"Well……"
Meng Chuyuan's eyes curled up into a faint smile, and he said nonchalantly: "Just drink boiled water."
