Chapter 81 Two enthusiastic waiters!
The middle-aged man called Lao Liu looked at Yan Ruo with fierce eyes.
Hearing the young man ask this, I knew he was interested in the woman.
He couldn't help but reveal a malicious smile and immediately bent down to move closer to Han Tianqi.
"Don't worry, Master Han. This woman comes from an ordinary family and has no background. It's a great blessing for you to be attracted to her."
"No background?"
Han Tianqi kicked Lao Liu on the calf. Seeing him grimacing and covering the place where he was kicked, but not daring to cry out in pain, he felt a lot happier.
"I heard that she worked as a secretary for President Xu in North City for eight years and had an ambiguous relationship with President Xu. How dare you hide this from me?"
Old Liu's face changed drastically. Didn't they say that the eldest son of the Han family had never left South City since he was a child because of a fortune teller's words?
He even knew such gossip. He rolled his eyes and explained hurriedly.
"Mr. Han, there are indeed rumors about her and Mr. Xu in Beicheng, but she resigned from Xu's company a few months ago."
"If President Xu really valued her, she wouldn't have resigned from Xu's, let alone left North City. As for those rumors, they're nothing to worry about. Even if there were any in the past, they were over long ago."
"Oh!" Han Tianqi chuckled. "Xu Shaoyu, the president of Xu Corporation, is a man like that. I wonder what's the difference between the women he's attracted to and other women?"
He raised his chin towards Lao Liu and said, "If you can arrange it for me today, the project I mentioned before will be yours."
"Remember, don't give me that kind of medicine, it's boring!"
Han Tianqi looked at Yan Ruo and saw that she looked calm and at ease communicating with those experienced business people. A glint of determination flashed in his eyes. "Finally, an interesting person came along. I must have a good time with her."
Old Liu immediately nodded and bowed, patting his chest to assure, "Don't worry, Mr. Han, I promise there will be no problem."
If Yan Ruo saw him, she would definitely recognize him. He was Mr. Liu who wanted to get her drunk at the banquet.
Although Mr. Liu made his fortune with his wife's dowry and his character is not very good, his company has a good development momentum.
I just don't know why he suddenly came to Nancheng and tried to curry favor with the Han family.
Of course, Yan Ruo was completely unaware of these things.
Since she was already here, she replaced the juice in her hand with a low-alcohol cocktail and walked towards the crowd.
With so many big guys here, this is a rare opportunity.
If she could get to know one or two potential future partners, she could avoid many detours in the future.
After several drinks and a large stack of business cards, Yan Ruo had already made up his mind as to which ones were worth making friends with and which ones were not.
What she didn't expect was that she actually met He Hong at this business banquet.
When a familiar face appeared among the unfamiliar faces, Yan Ruo's smile became much brighter.
This made the men who were secretly observing her even more impressed.
Seeing He Hong finish his conversation with the people around him, Yan Ruo stepped forward and said, "Squad leader, I didn't expect you to come too."
He Hong was also surprised. "Didn't you say you were going back to your hometown? When did you come to South City?"
Yan Ruo, "It's been a few days. The house has just been renovated. I came to look at the furniture."
"Amazing!" He Hong gave a thumbs up. "I didn't expect you'd already renovated your house in just two or three months."
He looked around and said, "You've been staying in North City before, so you're not familiar with this place. Do you want me to introduce you to some people?"
"That's great!" Yan Ruo raised the wine glass in his hand and said hesitantly.
"That is, will it bother you?"
He Hong said indifferently, "It's okay. I came here with my boss today. She has always been responsible for interpersonal relationships."
I followed He Hong around and got to know a lot of people.
After He Hong was called away by his boss, Yan Ruo walked slowly among the crowd with a glass of wine, observing quietly.
Everyone here is doing business, and they believe that harmony brings wealth.
Normally, people act friendly to each other in public, but at a business banquet like this, it becomes clear who is really close to whom and who is at odds with whom.
Even if you maintain superficial calm in front of others, you can always see clues in your words and actions.
When I was a secretary, it had become my instinct to follow Xu Shaoyu and observe potential partners and competitors.
After one round, Yan Ruo had collected enough information.
For example, the powerful boss of the Zhou family is about to be transferred out of Nancheng, so the Zhou family urgently needs to find a powerful ally to consolidate their position in Nancheng.
Xu Shaoyu is one of the choices they value.
For example, a few years ago, Miss Zhou Qinglan from the Zhou family and Han Tianqi, the eldest son of the Han family, were engaged.
But as the two grew up, Zhou Qinglan disliked Han Tianqi for being too fickle and having so many women; Han Tianqi disliked Zhou Qinglan for running around the world and being restless.
In addition, the competition between the two families has become increasingly fierce in recent years, and this private marriage agreement has come to nothing.
Although the Zhou and Han families are still close on the surface, their relationship is actually not as good as before, and there is even a subtle trend of confrontation.
I also heard that the young master of the Qu family, who rarely appears in public, is about to return home. Rumor has it that the Qu family is about to make a big move...
After listening to a lot of gossip, Yan Ruo returned to the corner where she started with satisfaction and waited for the banquet to end.
In order to look good in the little dress, I didn't eat anything before coming here. I just drank some wine, and my stomach feels empty and hot.
After looking around, Yan Ruo took a fancy to a small cake not far away.
It is small, easy to eat, and can be used as a light filling.
As soon as I walked over, a waiter came out with a new small cake and recommended it enthusiastically.
"Miss, these are freshly made, they will taste better,"
Yan Ru nodded and thanked her, but still only took the two cakes that were left over by others.
When she was walking back with the small cake, another waiter happened to pass by with a few glasses of juice on a tray. When he saw her, he asked politely.
"Ma'am, would you like some juice? You might choke on just cake."
Glancing at the waiter who looked concerned, and thinking of the waiter who had recommended the cake to her before, Yan Ruo's eyes flashed with deep thought.
I secretly sighed in my heart that the Zhou family’s banquet was really thoughtful and each of these waiters was so warm-hearted.
I can't always let down other people's kindness, so I reached out and picked up a glass of juice, nodding to the waiter. "Thank you!"
After saying that, he turned around and left, completely unaware of the evasiveness and guilt in the waiter's eyes.
After eating two small cakes and taking a sip of juice, I felt a slight sense of fullness, which made me feel much more comfortable.
I just talked to a stranger and it took up too much of my energy. After eating and drinking, I couldn't help but feel sleepy.
Seeing her sitting there alone, looking drowsy, Old Liu, who had been observing her secretly, couldn't help but sneer.
After glancing around and confirming that she had no companions, he spoke to the two waiters behind him with confidence.
"Take her upstairs and make sure she's in her room. Be careful not to be discovered."
