Fine Bordeaux red wine paired with medium-rare steak and plates of fresh seafood.
Everyone was happily enjoying their time together. Surrounded by such beautiful women, Wei Lun was the envy of countless men. He felt like a honeybee living in a garden, exceptionally joyful and carefree.
"Shanshan, I didn't realize you could drink so much! You never used to drink."
Tang Jiao's mouth dropped open in surprise. Although everyone was drinking red wine, it still had a slight alcohol effect.
Judging from Xue Qingshan's leisurely sipping of her drink, it was clear that she drank quite a bit on a regular basis, a fact that Tang Jiao hadn't noticed.
Then, Wei Ruoqing was also somewhat surprised.
"Jiaojiao? Didn't Shanshan drink before?"
Wei Ruoqing held a wine glass in her hand, took a small sip, and the smooth taste made her feel comfortable.
“When I used to eat with Shanshan, she never drank alcohol. It’s strange that she drank today.”
Tang Jiao said with a puzzled look, "I used to often ask Xue Qingshan out to dinner. Every time it came to drinking, Xue Qingshan would say that she couldn't drink, that she had to drive, or that she had something to do after dinner. In short, she would always make excuses not to drink."
Is it because I'm happier this time?
Wei Ruoqing and Tang Jiao both looked at Xue Qingshan with puzzled expressions, while a hint of panic flashed in Xue Qingshan's eyes.
She looked at Wei Lun and smiled, "We have a billionaire here, so can I have a little drink?"
Xue Qingshan dumped all the pressure on Wei Lun, but this time, Xue Qingshan's willingness to drink was actually largely due to Wei Lun.
Xue Qingshan wanted to project the image of an all-around excellent woman and didn't want the atmosphere to become awkward because of her. Besides, Wei Lun had specially ordered a fine Bordeaux red wine, so tasting it would be a pleasure.
Wei Lun lightly clinked his cup against Xue Qingshan's.
"I guess Shanshan didn't drink before because she needed to stay sober for work. Now that we've made a special trip together, as the president, she'll definitely give us face."
Wei Lun said, then took a small sip first. Wei Lun, who used to be penniless, could never afford such fine red wine.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wei Lun enjoyed the food and drinks to the fullest.
However,
Meanwhile, in the apocalypse,
After discussing Wei Lun's matter with Cai Zhenshao, Gu Zun returned to his residence and remained depressed.
In Gu Zun's mind, the only thing that matters most in the apocalypse is the source of food. If Wei Lun has food that he can't enjoy for long, then there must be a production factory.
Once we control Weren, we can then control his factories and food sources.
In the apocalypse, the world was vast and he could roam freely as he pleased, so even Cai Zhenshao's repeated admonitions had no effect on Gu Zun.
Gu Zun has already begun to secretly gather the armed forces he can mobilize.
He was preparing to begin his plan; he wanted to find a way to drag Cai Zhenshao into it as well. Gu Zun was extremely greedy for this new shareholder, Wei Lun.
...
In private banquet restaurants,
Wei Lun and the three women were drinking to their hearts' content.
"Brother, who exactly is your R&D team? How come they can develop all sorts of high-tech products?"
Wei Ruoqing asked a question that everyone was concerned about: why was there no news about such a research team, as if they did not exist in this world and had never shown up?
Xue Qingshan and Tang Jiao also looked at Wei Lun with great confusion. They had discussed this issue privately and even considered whether they could put the research team directly in the headquarters building, but nothing came of it.
"Uh... all I can say about that is that they all work in very secretive places and it's impossible for them to show their faces in public. However, their loyalty and technical skills are completely trustworthy."
Wei Lun explained that he couldn't explain anything further, and that it was probably impossible to bring the research and technology team to work in an office building.
"Chairman Wei, you are really capable. You were able to contact such a research and development team. It seems that you have many secrets that are not known to others."
Xue Qingshan's eyes gleamed with envy; she had a blind trust and admiration for Chairman Wei Lun.
From a company that started with nothing to one that now boasts a plethora of high-tech products, what kind of powerful force is behind Wei Lun? This is something Xue Qingshan dares not delve into.
In the minds of these three women, Wei Lun must have come into contact with some mysterious force, and Wei Lun may just be a representative of this force, which may involve the highest level of scientific research on Earth.
Wei Lun felt a little embarrassed as he looked at the three women staring at him with their beautiful eyes.
"I'll tell you when I have the chance. Anyway, everything is safe, so don't worry."
As Wei Lun spoke, he began serving food to the three women, his face flushing slightly. He felt a little shy as the women pressed him for answers.
Two hours later,
After everyone finished their meal, they all got into their cars and left the private banquet restaurant.
On the way back, Wei Ruoqing, Tang Jiao, and Xue Qingshan rode together in a Rolls-Royce.
Wei Lun, on the other hand, drove back alone with a designated driver in a Ferrari.
As soon as they returned to the villa, Zhao Xiang, all dressed up, rushed towards them, as if she hadn't seen her master in a long time and had missed him terribly.
They helped me change my clothes, helped me change my shoes, served me tea and water, and attended to me at every turn.
"Xiangxiang, I've already eaten out. Make yourself something to eat and get some rest. Don't worry about me."
Wei Lun gave the instructions, and then went to wash up.
Zhao Xiang obediently returned to her room after receiving her master's order, but she seemed to be constantly worried about Wei Lun and couldn't sleep soundly.
Wei Lun returned to his room, feeling restless and uneasy after spending the entire day surrounded by several beautiful women.
I have a restless feeling and can't fall asleep.
So, Wei Lun activated the black jade pendant and traveled to the apocalypse.
It was already late at night when Wei Lun cautiously returned to Qin Mutong's room. At first, Qin Mutong was terrified, but she calmed down after realizing it was Wei Lun.
Early the next morning,
Everything was peaceful until the guards at the gate sounded the alarm early on.
The entire headquarters compound went on alert. Wei Lun was also awakened by the alarm, but despite his exhaustion from the night, he couldn't get a good night's sleep.
After getting up, I went downstairs. Zeng Guangtian, Lei Long, Zhu Guanjun, and six guards were all fully armed.
Laser guns, laser cannons, laser swords, automatic rifles—everyone was equipped with them.
In the very center of the compound, on a turret for a laser cannon, the laser cannon was aimed outside the compound.
Soldiers had already surrounded the courtyard, and the entire headquarters compound was now encircled; a fierce conflict seemed imminent.
"Boss, something bad has happened. We discovered this morning that our yard has been surrounded. It looks like soldiers from a settlement."
Zeng Guangtian reported with a very serious expression that it was impossible to rush out now, because there were people everywhere outside.
