Huo Yuanlu wailed, trying to please Huo Beiting not to go to that place. It was just a village, and there was no branch. How could there be a branch in such a place!
But before speaking, he took a look at Huo Beiting's expression, and in the end he could only swallow everything back into his stomach bitterly.
On the other side, not long after Yan Qing arrived at the company, Assistant Zhang said that there was a dinner party in the evening, which was at a not-so-large company.
Yan Qing had some impression of this company, having tried to curry favor with it before.
At night, Yan Qing was a little reluctant to let her father go, because the boss of that company was not a good person and he liked to change his attitude according to the situation.
He keeps trying to please those who are capable, but keeps stepping on those who are less capable than him or those who are down and out. He can be said to be a complete villain.
"Dad, can't we not go?"
Father Yan patted the back of Yan Qing's hand and said with a smile, "It's okay, I know what you're thinking. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
Yan Qingbi swallowed something and didn't know what to say.
During this period, no matter whether she took out some of the money she had or wanted to do something, she was rejected by Yan's father every time, and the reason every time was that he knew his limits.
In the end, Yan Qing had no choice but to go along.
At first, no matter what Yan Qing said, Yan's father refused to agree. In the end, Yan Qing persuaded him to take Yan Qing with him.
When they got to the dinner table, those people would stand up and greet Yan's father when they saw him in the past, but this time they acted as if they hadn't seen him and continued chatting and laughing with the people around them. Yan Qing clearly saw that Yan's father's mood had calmed down a little.
Yan Qing secretly tugged at Yan's father's clothes. Yan's father secretly shook his head and took Yan Qing to the dining table.
"Oh, I was chatting with the person next to me and didn't see you. I'm so sorry!"
The man was still sitting there while he was talking, and he just stretched out his hand as if to shake hands, but Yan's father had to take a few steps towards him before he could touch him.
Yan Qing clenched his hands into fists, but Yan's father quickly adjusted his composure, took the initiative to walk up to the man and shook hands, then sat down according to the instructions of the person next to him.
At the beginning, the man kept joking with Yan's father and asked about the company's recent situation from time to time, giving people the feeling that he was mocking him.
"...That's how business is these days. There will always be some ups and downs, but they'll pass. Don't get discouraged!"
As the man spoke, he patted Yan's father's shoulders. His hands seemed to have eaten something greasy before, and they left a handprint on Yan's father's white shirt.
Yan Qing looked a little disgusted. Her father must have seen it too, but he didn't react at all and continued to chat and laugh with the man.
Yan Qing had been very nervous since she entered the room. The man looked unfriendly, and Yan Qing was worried that he would do something to her father. However, the dinner was already halfway through, and at most he would just say a few unpleasant words.
Yan Qing slowly relaxed. Perhaps because he suddenly relaxed, he felt like going to the bathroom. After saying goodbye to his father, he went to the bathroom.
Yan Qing wasted a little time in the bathroom putting on makeup, and when she came back, she saw her father pouring glass after glass of wine.
Her father has always had high blood pressure and the doctor told him not to drink alcohol, but now... he can do it!
Yan Qing rushed forward and snatched the wine from Yan's father's hand.
"Dad, did you forget that the doctor told you not to drink?"
Father Yan frowned and took the wine back from Yan Qing's hand. He glanced at her and said that she was ignorant. Then he faced the man and said.
"I'm sorry, my daughter is young and naive. Don't argue with her."
"How could that be! My child is just like her! I understand, I understand. She's just caring about you!"
After hearing this, Mr. Yan silently prepared to put down his wine glass, but when the glass was about to touch the table, the man spoke again.
"But sometimes you still have to drink, just like now. This is not just a dinner party, it's also a business meeting. If we're talking about business, how can we do without alcohol?"
As the man spoke, he filled Yan's father's glass with wine again. Yan Qing's eyelids twitched as he looked at him, and he had a bad feeling.
"Dad, you really can't drink anymore!"
Father Yan removed Yan Qing's hand from the glass and poured the wine into his mouth in one gulp.
Yan Qing's heart skipped a beat as he watched.
"Oh, Mr. Yan, this won't do. How can a woman who knows nothing about anything keep messing around while men are discussing work?"
As soon as the man finished saying this, Yan's father scolded Yan Qing.
"Qingqing, children should not interrupt when adults are talking!"
Yan Qingxin thought to herself, for a man who is almost 30 years old, how could this still be considered a child?
Father Yan was persuaded by that man to pour glass of wine into his mouth one after another. It cannot be said that he was persuaded, but rather that he had to drink. Whenever Father Yan showed the slightest intention of not wanting to drink, that man would continue to mock him, forcing Father Yan to continue drinking.
Yan Qing watched as bottle after bottle of wine was brought up by the waiters, and as bottle after bottle of wine appeared in front of Yan's father, Yan Qing's eyelids twitched.
When Yan Qing saw that the veins on Yan's father's forehead were popping out, he finally couldn't help it and directly snatched the wine glass from Yan's father's hand.
"My father is in poor health and has already drunk so much alcohol. I know exactly what you mean. We are asking for your help now and need to see your mood, but you also have to think carefully. Unless the Yan family will not be revived in the future, you will be miserable in the future."
Yan Qing looked at those people one by one as he spoke. Yan's father was a little drunk and did not stop Yan Qing.
Those people looked unhappy and looked at the man sitting in the main seat, the one who had been persuading her father to drink.
The man sat up straight, clapped his hands and said okay.
"As expected of Boss Yan's daughter, you really have such an aura. But as you said, you need our help now, so if you don't want to drink this wine, forget it. Of course, if you want my help, forget it, but!"
As he spoke, the man stood up, walked to Yan Qing, reached out and lifted Yan Qing's hair, put it under his nose and sniffed it gently.
Yan Qing felt a little disgusted and grabbed her hair directly.
"Please respect yourself."
The man laughed twice, let Yan Qing go, walked to his seat, took a whole bottle of wine from his seat, and placed it directly in front of Yan Qing.
"After you finish this bottle of wine, you can leave. Of course, I will also consider your father's request."
