Chapter 21 President Xu helps Secretary Yan drink?
Not only were they cheated, but they also lost a big order and lost face. The feud between Zhang Xi and Xu Shaoyu was completely formed.
Naturally, Yan Ruo, the accomplice, was inevitably regarded as a thorn in Zhang Xi's side.
Every time we meet in public, we always use some veiled language.
The Zhang family has developed well in recent years and is one of the most prominent families in North City. It is easier for them to deal with her, an ordinary worker, than to crush an ant.
This is also the reason why Yan Ruo decided to return to her hometown after resigning. In order to help Xu Shaoyu over the years, she had offended too many people in Beicheng!
She pretended to be uncomfortable, holding her forehead with her hand, ready to leave quickly before the other party noticed her.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Xi was sitting on the sofa drinking, facing sideways, but he could still see her.
"Secretary Yan is so arrogant. He didn't even say hello when he saw me?"
Yan Ruo put his hand down, looking extremely surprised.
"Mr. Zhang? Sorry, I just had two extra drinks and I feel a little dizzy, so I didn't see it! Please forgive me, Mr. Zhang!"
Zhang Xi smiled with an ambiguous tone and said sarcastically:
"Really? I thought Secretary Yan didn't want to see me?"
"How is that possible?" Yan Ruo skillfully put on a professional smile, looking sincere.
"So many people have wanted to see Master Zhang but couldn't. If I had known Master Zhang was coming today, I would have definitely gone to greet you and toast you a glass!"
While speaking, Yan Ruo raised her head and glanced around inconspicuously. Xu Shaoyu was no longer in sight, and there were not many people around.
What's wrong with these people? They have such a good opportunity to curry favor with someone, but they actually let the young master of the Zhang family sit alone in the corner drinking.
It was clearly a polite remark, but Zhang Xi actually waved to the waiter to bring the wine.
He said with a half-smile: "Since Secretary Yan wants to toast me, then I'll give you this opportunity!"
"Thank you so much!"
Yan Ruo gave a fake smile and glanced at the drinks that had just been delivered.
They were all high-proof whiskey and cocktails. She had just said she was a little drunk, but he still asked her to drink these drinks. This was definitely a deliberate revenge on her!
No matter how much you complain in your heart, you cannot offend the other person in this situation.
She picked a cocktail that didn't look that strong and smiled with her standard eight teeth.
"This cup is for Master Zhang! I apologize for the offense I've caused you before, I hope Master Zhang will forgive me!"
I originally wanted to cut corners and just drink half a cup.
As a result, Zhang Xi stared at her with his eyes, and she had no choice but to drink it in one gulp!
His throat felt hot and he squinted his eyes uncomfortably.
I sighed in my heart, it seems that it will be difficult to go home sober today! I don’t know who Xu Shaoyu went to chat with, I haven’t seen him for a long time.
Zhang Xi raised his hands and applauded, "As expected of North City's renowned gold medal secretary, Secretary Yan is truly a heroine!"
There was nothing wrong with what he said, but Yan Ruo always felt that he was mocking her. Especially since he actually picked up a glass of wine and handed it to her personally, saying with a smile.
"It's impolite not to reciprocate! In that case, I'll also offer a toast to the secretary!"
After saying that, he drank up the wine in his hand first!
For many people, being able to have Young Master Zhang personally toast them is a great honor. But Yan Ruo felt like the sky had fallen!
This damn smiling tiger deliberately gave her a glass of whiskey with a high proof.
"Haha! How dare I! I'd rather respect Master Zhang!"
The smile he had forced out before froze on his face. Yan Ruo felt a little bitter in his heart, but he had no choice but to follow suit!
After drinking this glass, not only my throat but even my stomach started to feel hot. The alcohol instantly got to my head and I felt a little dizzy, but I couldn't see any sign of it on the surface.
"Secretary Yan has a good alcohol tolerance!"
Zhang Xi brought two more glasses of wine, still handing one to her and shaking the other one gently in his hand.
"No wonder Mr. Xu always likes to bring Secretary Yan with him to cocktail parties!"
Isn't it a secretary's job to help the boss drink? Is there any need for you to emphasize this here?
Thinking of the last time when Xu Shaoyu helped Yun Zhinian block the wine, Yan Ruo felt as if her heart was stabbed, and the professional fake smile on her face faded a lot.
"I heard that Secretary Yan is going to resign?" Zhang Xi seemed to be in a good mood.
Yan Ruo said vaguely, "I've been working for several years straight. I'm tired and want to take a break!"
Zhang Xi had a noncommittal expression and said sarcastically:
"I said it a few years ago that Xu Shaoyu has no heart. If you follow him, nothing good will come of it!"
He sighed with some regret.
"What a shame! Secretary Yan, you're too stubborn! You refused such a huge sum of money and insisted on following Xu Shaoyu. What's the result? The Xu Group is so big, but now it can't even accommodate Secretary Yan! Oh~ I can't stand it anymore!"
Back then, the Zhang family and the Xu family competed for a major government project.
In order to know the bottom price of Xu's side in advance, Zhang Xu promised a large sum of money to bribe Yan Ruo, knowing that Yan Ruo came from an ordinary family.
In order to stabilize Zhang Xi, Yan Ruo pretended to agree and gained his trust with news that was half true and half false.
In the end, he found out the Zhang family's background and gave out false information at the most critical moment.
Coupled with Xu Shaoyu's superb operational skills, Xu finally successfully won the project.
Since then, Xu Shaoyu has firmly established his foothold in the Xu Group and gained recognition from the board of directors.
Since then, when people talk about the younger generation in North City, they always feel that Zhang Yu is not as good as Xu Shaoyu!
He is obviously a favored child of heaven, but he is always inferior to others. This is hard for anyone to accept.
People outside said that Zhang Yu was a vindictive person. When Yan Ruo heard him mention this matter, he couldn't help but feel uneasy and laughed awkwardly:
"When you are in a position, do your job! I have offended you a lot in the past! I hope Master Zhang will be magnanimous and not hold it against me!"
"Be calculative!" Zhang Xi snorted coldly, the corners of his mouth moved slightly, and the smile on his face disappeared in an instant.
"I feel sorry for Secretary Yan! She's loyal, capable, and most importantly, she's so beautiful, but Xu Shaoyu doesn't know how to cherish her."
He took a step forward, leaned close to Yan Ruo's ear, and spoke in a bewitching voice.
"After leaving Xu's, I wonder if Secretary Yan is willing to come to Hengxing?"
Yan Ruo faked a smile and took a step back. "There's no rush for work. I'm going to take a good rest for a while! We'll talk about it later! We'll talk about it later!"
He glanced at the wine glass in his hand, gritted his teeth, raised the glass, and said carefully:
"Well! To thank Master Zhang for his generosity, I'll toast him another glass!"
I hope that after drinking this glass of wine, this young master will let me go!
Yan Ruo closed her eyes and was about to drink the wine in one gulp when the wine glass in her hand was snatched away!
She was startled and turned around to see that it was Xu Shaoyu. She didn't know when he came over.
Zhang Xi's expression was gloomy, and the playful smile on his face disappeared in an instant.
"Is this glass of wine going to be served to Secretary Yan, Mr. Xu?"
Unexpectedly, Xu Shaoyu put the wine glass directly on the table, with a dangerous look on his face.
"Xu's company has no plans to cooperate with Hengxing for the time being, so there's no need to drink this glass of wine!"
This is a very disrespectful statement.
Anyone who came to the cocktail party today was a well-known upper-class celebrity with status and position in the North City.
It is said that harmony brings wealth!
No matter how ugly they are at other times, at this kind of party, these people still smile more enthusiastically than each other.
Being humiliated like this, Yan Ruo thought Zhang Xi would get angry.
Unexpectedly, not only was he not angry, he even chuckled playfully.
