Chapter 51: A Malicious Dinner

“This is the Letter of Intent for cooperation with Zhongda. You two go and follow up.”

He turned and entered his office. Yao Tingting rolled her eyes at his back, “What a hypocrite!”

Lin Yuan closed her laptop, which she had just opened, “Alright, let’s get to work.”

The two of them took the documents and went to Zhongda.

The people at Zhongda were all very arrogant, from top to bottom. Even the receptionist had a dismissive attitude, “You don’t have an appointment, so you’ll have to wait. Our President Gao is very busy, not everyone can just see him.”

She didn’t even look up, her eyes fixed on her newly done diamond manicure, touching it constantly.

“Is it reasonable for you to stop us without even calling to ask? We’re from Yarui,” Yao Tingting was furious. What kind of receptionist is this? This company will close down sooner or later. She really doesn’t know why Yang Ligang, that idiot, insists on cooperating with this company!

Logically speaking, a company of their size should be actively seeking cooperation with Yarui. Now, they’re actually blocking the “God of Wealth” from entering.

Unbelievable!

The receptionist saw her tone was not good, so she lifted her eyelids, “Yarui, so what?”

Lin Yuan also said, “So what? It’s just that the amount of this contract is at least eight figures. Can you make the decision?”

The receptionist finally turned her gaze to Lin Yuan also’s face, “Are you threatening me?”

Before Lin Yuan also could speak, the elevator beside them opened automatically. A group of men in suits and leather shoes came down laughing and talking.

The leading man, with several people flattering him from behind, had his hands in his pockets, his face full of arrogance. It was clear that he was used to hearing such words and was immune to them. His gaze only changed when it met the figure in the lobby.

When Lin Yuan also looked over, her eyes darkened. Could it be this coincidental?

An Jinghao.

She wanted to avoid greeting him, but An Jinghao had indeed helped them a few times before. It would be a little rude to pretend not to see him, so she was hesitating when An Jinghao strode towards her with long legs.

He didn’t look at Lin Yuan also, but stared at the receptionist, “What’s going on here?”

He leaned casually on the platform, his amorous eyes smiling at the receptionist. The receptionist, who was still arrogant just now, instantly blushed, a little embarrassedly flicking the stray hair by her ear, “Mr. An, they don’t have an appointment and want to see President Gao.”

Several of the people following An Jinghao were second-generation rich kids from Yancheng. When they saw Lin Yuan also, their eyes went straight. Gao Feng walked out from behind An Jinghao, “Looking for me?”

Lin Yuan also smiled, “President Gao, we’re from Yarui. We came today to discuss the contract with you.”

Gao Feng was only in his late twenties. Zhongda was inherited from his father. He was the only child in the family, so he basically didn’t need to struggle and would have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life.

As long as he didn’t go too far, the company his father built for him would be enough to make him comfortable.

“Yarui, come up then.”

Lin Yuan also slightly curled her lips at An Jinghao, as a greeting, and took Yao Tingting upstairs.

An Jinghao’s brows moved, really?

His smile was uglier than crying.

Gao Feng took Lin Yuan also upstairs. The few people downstairs left with An Jinghao, “Mr. An, you know that beauty?”

An Jinghao knew what they were thinking. These people were all people with some background in this small city of Yancheng. They indulged in eating, drinking, gambling, and women, constantly changing their partners.

Seeing Lin Yuan also like that, An Jinghao knew what they meant. He said lightly, “I know her. She’s married. You guys should stop having any bad ideas.”

He thought he had made it clear enough. These people were shameless when it came to playing with women, and they loved to find young girls. They should be unwilling to touch a married woman.

But he didn’t expect that Lin Yuan also was too charming. Even though she was married, there were still people with impure thoughts.

The few people behind him exchanged glances, smiled at each other, and their thoughts were self-evident.

The contract with Yarui was signed smoothly, and the two of them went back to the company.

Yang Ligang just answered a phone call and came out of his office. He went straight to Yao Tingting, “The contract is done well. You work overtime tonight and finalize the details.”

Yao Tingting originally planned to have a good rest, “Okay.”

Yang Ligang didn’t care if she was willing or not. His goal wasn’t her anyway. He turned and went to Lin Yuan also’s side, “Tonight, several leaders from Zhongda are going to have dinner with us to celebrate the signing of the contract. You played a major role, so you must be there.”

This kind of celebration dinner was too common, and there were also two colleagues from the design department going with them. Lin Yuan also didn’t have any reason to refuse, “Okay.”

At 6:30 pm, the people from Yarui and Zhongda sat in the same private room.

When Lin Yuan also and the others arrived, there were already quite a few people in the private room.

Moreover, there were several familiar faces, the ones they met at Zhongda in the morning, the few people who were following An Jinghao?

They weren’t from Zhongda, why were they involved?

Gao Feng casually picked up his wine glass and clinked it with Yang Ligang, “Manager Yang, these are my company’s partners. They all want to cooperate with Yarui. Don’t mind if they join us for dinner?”

Yang Ligang was flattered and his face was beaming with pride. Of course he didn’t mind. He couldn’t wait to get in touch with more rich second-generation kids. Building a good relationship with them, he would be able to walk sideways in Yancheng in the future.

These people all looked at Lin Yuan also with their eyes, how could someone like Yang Ligang not understand? He laughed cunningly, “Xiaolin, you made the biggest contribution to this cooperation. Have a drink with President Gao.”

Lin Yuan also frowned. She originally planned to be a silent observer, just come along for the dinner. What was Yang Ligang doing? She was a little embarrassed and waved her hand, “Sorry everyone, I’m not feeling well and can’t drink. I’ll toast President Gao with tea instead.”

Everyone at the table joined in and insisted on making Lin Yuan also drink this glass of wine. She looked at her colleagues, trying to get some help from them, but they all lowered their heads in unison, pretending not to see.

She took a deep breath, “Will I be okay if I drink this glass of wine?”

“Ms. Lin is generous, drink it.”

Lin Yuan also finished the wine in her glass in one gulp. Her throat immediately burned with a spicy sensation. She quickly sat down and took a bite of food, trying to suppress the discomfort.

The men sitting opposite her exchanged glances. Lin Yuan also saw the malicious look on their faces. She had a bad feeling in her heart. It was as if these people were targeting her.

They had been trying to persuade her to drink since she entered. Their eyes were increasingly naked and unrestrained. Her colleagues just now ignored her pleas. If something bad happened later, they wouldn’t care. As for Yang Ligang… she wouldn’t even expect him to.

She frowned slightly, reached into her bag and grabbed her phone. She found Sheng Xiao’s number according to her memory and pressed the dial button…
