Yang Kaiqi looked around at the people around him and finally calmed down.
He turned his head to look elsewhere, unable to bear looking directly at Qin Bai's face.
Every time our eyes meet, I can feel that sly look in his eyes.
The waiter was quick to notice and rushed over while the two weren't arguing.
"Mr. Yang, what are your instructions?"
“I… oh, right.”
Yang Kaiqi finally remembered that he still had important business to attend to. He came here to cause trouble, but Qin Bai had taken the initiative.
He pointed to the invitation and said, "This guy named Qin Bai probably doesn't have an invitation, so he can't go in."
"this......"
The waiter glanced at Pei Wanyin; Qin Bai's name was indeed not on the list, which was why he had hesitated earlier.
However, with Pei Wanyin here, it's understandable that a chairperson would have a male companion; it's tacitly approved of such a situation.
However, the waiter was somewhat embarrassed to be pointed out in front of these people.
Qin Bai raised an eyebrow: "Peppa, you're being nosy. Is there not enough muddy puddle at home for you to jump around in? You're here pointing fingers and giving orders."
Every word is devoid of profanity, yet every word strikes at the heart.
Everyone knows that the Yang family is in the real estate business. In his early years, Yang Kaiqi was a contractor who dealt with cement and earthwork all day long.
Later, he encountered some opportunities that transformed him into the company's chairman.
That's how people are; once they have money, they start thinking about how to cover up their dark past.
Thanks to his efforts over the years, people have forgotten his origins.
Every day, he plays golf, rides horses, and smokes cigars in upscale clubs, doing all the things that rich people should do, but he's afraid that no one will remember the mud-covered version of himself.
Now that Qin Bai dares to expose this matter in front of these people, he's gone straight for the major artery with one stab.
Pei Wanyin's smile gradually faded, and she winked at the driver behind her.
In the event of any conflict, Qin Bai's safety must be guaranteed.
Yang Kaiqi clenched his fist and spat out a few words through gritted teeth.
"Qin Bai, you're asking for death."
The bodyguards behind him instantly lined up, waiting for their boss to give the order to kill this arrogant young man.
Pei Wanyin's driver also took a step forward, his fingers gently stroking the dagger at his waist.
There's a reason she hasn't brought bodyguards with her these past few years; this driver is more than capable of handling any crisis.
"Oh dear, you're getting anxious, haha, you're getting anxious."
Qin Bai seemed oblivious to the tense atmosphere, smiling without a care in the world.
"Your temperament isn't good enough; you need to train, otherwise..."
Qin Bai casually pointed to a puddle by the roadside: "Go roll around in it a few times and calm down?"
There are many ways to provoke someone, but repeatedly touching on their sore spots is the most effective.
Qin Bai narrowed his eyes, staring fearlessly into Yang Kaiqi's eyes.
Take action.
Get started now.
If you dare to make a move, I have a way to make you fail here.
"Why is everyone stuck here? Is there some kind of commotion?"
A plump middle-aged man walked into the crowd with a smile on his face.
Qin Bai shook his head in disappointment.
Why is it that someone always steps up at crucial moments?
He recognized this person; he occupied several rows in the information Ji Mu had given him.
President of the Chamber of Commerce in Pushi.
Hong Zhen.
This title alone reveals his identity.
Despite being in her forties, she always seems to be smiling, giving off a very approachable vibe.
Qin Bai's expression returned to calm, and that sly feeling vanished instantly.
Since someone likes this persona, just give it to him. If you want to laugh, then you can laugh first.
Hong Zhen seemed oblivious to the tense atmosphere and stood directly between the two.
A smile dispelled everything, instantly shattering the tense atmosphere.
"President Yang, President Pei, are you just catching up? Why don't we go inside first?"
Yang Kaiqi took a deep breath.
"Okay, I'll give Brother Hong face today."
After saying that, he glared at Qin Bai and turned to walk inside.
Qin Bai smacked his lips.
This is different from other villains. When Grey Wolf flies away, he always says something threatening, but this one doesn't work.
Pei Wanyin smiled and said, "Thank you for getting me out of that predicament, Mr. Hong."
"Mr. Pei, are you blaming me for ruining your plans?"
When Hong Zhen said this, he didn't look at Pei Wanyin, but stared intently at Qin Bai.
Qin Bai took a look.
Oh, they're coming for me.
This is interesting.
However, since he hadn't figured out whether Hong Zhen was friend or foe, he didn't dare to make sweeping generalizations.
He took two steps forward and grabbed Hong Zhen's hand.
"Hello Uncle Hong, I've heard of you before, but I never expected to have the honor of meeting you today."
Hong Zhen was taken aback by Qin Bai's sudden change in expression, not expecting him to be so enthusiastic towards him.
"Hehe, Qin Bai, you are much more tactful than I imagined. I thought you were an arrogant and domineering person."
"I wouldn't dare to be arrogant in front of you; I only show my arrogance to those petty scoundrels."
"Oh~~~ Haha, I love your temper..."
Hong Zhen patted his hand: "I don't think I'm on that list of petty villains either."
His tone was joking yet carried a deeper meaning.
Qin Bai's smile remained unchanged: "That depends on what you do. My list is very long, I don't care..."
"One more or one less."
The voice wasn't loud, but it was loud enough for the people around to hear.
Pei Wanyin's expression changed drastically.
She knew that Hong Zhen's identity was not just that of a businessman.
He was the representative elected by the government to attend this banquet, which speaks volumes.
She knew about this, and Ji Mu must have known it too, which also meant that Qin Bai... knew it as well.
It was precisely because of Qin Bai's meticulous and thorough nature that Pei Wanyin dared to entrust her life and fortune to him.
But now...
Qin Bai's style of doing things was completely different from usual.
That's just too domineering.
Pei Wanyin bit her lip, her gaze fixed on that broad back, showing no intention of stepping forward to smooth things over.
Hong Zhen's smile faltered slightly.
He glanced at Pei Wanyin standing behind him out of the corner of his eye.
A few seconds later.
Hong Zhen understood Pei Wanyin's attitude.
A storm was raging within him.
What kind of magic does Qin Bai possess that can keep this thoughtful and capable woman completely silent?
Are you really just going to let him continue acting like this?
However, the more this is the case, the more it demonstrates the young man's ability.
Hong Zhen looked at Qin Bai with great interest, a hint of curiosity mingling with his deep smile.
