Chapter 150 Thank you so much!
Everyone was drinking and chatting happily, but Li Huiliang seemed to be paying special attention to Yan Ruo.
As soon as her glass was slightly empty, she immediately refilled it with wine. As soon as she looked up, a tissue was handed to her.
Not only did Yan Ruo get glared at several times by Jiang Mengxi, but even the usually slow-witted He Hong noticed something was wrong.
Yan Ruo frowned and was about to speak when she felt a heat on the back of her hand.
Chi Yu patted her hand gently and spoke jokingly.
"Li Huiliang, if you have something to say, just tell me. Why are you so attentive to our Ruoruo? Your girlfriend is about to misunderstand you."
Li Huiliang glanced at Jiang Mengxi beside him with a soothing look and said directly, "I do have something I want to ask Yan Ru for help."
Yan Ruo opened his mouth and was about to ask what was going on when Chi Yu asked first.
"Looking at the way you're acting tonight, it must be something serious. We agreed that if things are too troublesome, or if Yan Ruo feels it's hard to help, don't get angry."
Li Huiliang paused for a moment, but the smile remained on his face.
"Don't worry, for Yan Ruo, this matter is just a matter of opening her mouth."
Just open your mouth? Yan Ruo and Chi Yu exchanged a glance. He said it so easily. It seemed that this favor was not easy to help.
Yan Ruo curled her lips and said, "Last time I heard from the squad leader that you have become a manager. Is there anything I can help you with?"
Li Huiliang poured a glass of wine, raised his hand, and drank it in one gulp.
"He's just a small manager, not as good as the squad leader. The project he's working on has been favored by the Xu Group. With the investment from Xu Group, the squad leader's current net worth is far beyond the reach of a manager like me."
With just one sentence, Yan Ruo roughly guessed what he wanted to say. She sighed in her heart and instantly became a little bored.
He Hong also realized that there was something wrong with what he said and quickly explained.
"Our company has been working on this project for several years. When we started looking for investors last year, we began contacting the investment department of Xu Group."
"It just so happens that Xu Corporation established a branch in South City this year, so we can get more resources."
In fact, he wanted to say that the fact that their company's project could get investment from Xu's had nothing to do with Yan Ruo.
But Li Huiliang hasn't said anything yet. His attempt to distance himself from the matter only makes things more obvious.
Li Huiliang sighed, "I know your project, squad leader. It's really well done. No wonder Xu Corporation is willing to invest in it."
"They say there are many good horses, but few good horse trainers. In fact, the projects our company is currently working on are quite good."
"Originally, the Xu Group Investment Department had accepted our project proposal, but for some reason, they unexpectedly returned it recently."
He glanced at Yan Ruo and sighed, "I finally found out after much effort. It was because of the recent personnel changes at Xu's that our company's projects were affected. It really was an unexpected disaster."
Yan Ruo lowered her eyes and looked at the wine glass in her hand. Her expression did not change, and she did not respond. The box instantly fell into silence.
Jiang Mengxi frowned, not knowing why Li Huiliang said this.
In her opinion, Li Huiliang and other so-called old classmates were dressed in ordinary clothes, all cheap goods, especially the bags they carried, which were cheap items worth only a few hundred yuan. They didn't look like they were doing well, so how could they be of any help?
"Aliang, why are you telling them this? They can't help."
"Don't talk nonsense." Li Huiliang frowned and spoke directly.
"Yan Ruo, I didn't want to trouble you, but that project is too important to our company and my personal career."
"If I saw correctly last time, your boyfriend is Mr. Xu, right?"
"Can you talk to Mr. Xu and let him take a look at our company's project?"
"I'm sure that as long as Xu is willing to invest, the prospects and investment returns of our company's project will definitely be good."
Before Yan Ruo could speak, Jiang Mengxi next to him looked at Li Huiliang with an expression as if to say, "What are you talking in your sleep?"
"Aliang, what are you talking about? She's the one whose boyfriend is Mr. Xu. Don't let her fool you."
Jiang Mengxi is the daughter of the general manager of Li Huiliang's company. She often accompanies her father to banquets and cocktail parties hosted by wealthy families.
It is natural to understand that for children from such families, the first priority is profit, no matter when they get married.
If her family status was not low and her family wealth was not limited, she would definitely find a promising young man from a wealthy family.
Instead of a man like Li Huiliang, who has good abilities but ordinary background and is not good at handling his career.
The president of Xu Group is a man that many rich ladies can't reach.
How could he be the boyfriend of the woman in front of me? Even if he is, it’s probably just for fun. Don’t take it seriously. What can I say?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but persuade Li Huiliang.
"Aliang, project investment is a big deal. How could Mr. Xu listen to this woman? Don't let this woman fool you. Don't try anything out of desperation."
"What do you know? Yan Ruoke is Mr. Xu's girlfriend."
Li Huiliang anxiously signaled Jiang Mengxi to shut up, and looked at Yan Ruo with apology in his eyes.
"I'm sorry, Mengxi has never met Mr. Xu, so naturally I don't know how good he is to you. In fact, I saw it last time. Mr. Xu is absolutely sincere to you."
In fact, Li Huiliang didn’t know whether it was sincere or not, and he didn’t care.
Just thinking about the patience and gentleness Xu Shaoyu showed to Yan Ruo when they met last time, it was completely different from the rumored decisive and ruthless CEO of Xu Group.
If it weren't for that highly recognizable face, he wouldn't have dared to confirm that it was Mr. Xu.
He only knew that no matter whether Xu Shaoyu was sincere or just playing around, as a man, as long as he was interested in a woman at this moment.
Then, he would definitely listen to her words. All he needed was an opportunity to attract Mr. Xu's attention.
Chi Yu's eyes were filled with anger when she heard Jiang Mengxi's words, but Yan Ru just smiled and went along with her words.
"Miss Jiang is right. You really think too highly of me."
"Although I'm with Xu Shaoyu now, the decisions in his company will definitely not change because of a few words from me."
The smile on Li Huiliang's face faded and he sighed.
"Yan Ruo, Meng Xi is not sensible, you must not take it too seriously with her."
"We've known each other for so many years, and this project is incredibly important to me. Otherwise, I wouldn't be asking you this."
He spoke earnestly and looked at Yan Ruo with a sincere attitude.
"All you have to do is mention our project to Mr. Xu. You don't have to do anything else. If Xu Corporation takes a liking to this project, I'll definitely thank you."
Yan Ruo couldn't help but twitched the corner of his mouth. What the hell is this?
They talk about friendship, but in reality all they do is make deals.
After resigning from Xu's company, she rarely discussed Xu Shaoyu's work with him, let alone something as big as project investment.
Now that Li Huiliang was still expressing his gratitude, she couldn't agree to it.
Her eyelashes drooped slightly. "I'm sorry, I can't help you with this."
