Chapter 773: Date with Li Qian Ya
by xennovelManager Zhang’s face instantly turned deathly pale.
As a manager of a five-star hotel, not only was the income high, but it was also a respectable job to mention.
If he was fired just like that, where would he find such a good job?
“Mr. Xie… you, you need to put in a good word for me.”
Manager Zhang looked at Xie Bin with a pleading expression.
Xie Bin directly ignored him. I’ve lost three hundred and fifty million, and you want me to speak up for you? Don’t be ridiculous.
Manager Zhang then looked towards Yang Ming.
Yang Ming also ignored him. He looked up and noticed the lights in the private room were very bright.
“Thud!”
Manager Zhang’s legs weakened, and he fell to his knees, looking pitifully at Xu Shaochen:
“Young Master Xu, please have mercy and spare me. I have elderly parents and young children to support. If I lose this job, how will they survive?”
Xu Shaochen sneered: “Look at your fat face. You’ve got some strength. Can’t you work at a construction site? Get lost!”
“Young Master Xu…” Manager Zhang panicked.
“Bang!”
Before he could finish speaking, Xie Bin kicked him to the ground: “Are you deaf or what? Didn’t you hear Young Master Xu? Get lost now!”
Manager Zhang was the one he had called over.
He feared that if Manager Zhang continued to pester, Xu Shaochen would turn his anger on him.
Manager Zhang was both shocked and angry, never expecting Xie Bin to turn on him so quickly.
But more than anything, he felt regret.
If he had just maintained a neutral position when handling this matter earlier, how could he have ended up in this situation?
“Go resign on your own. Don’t make me call your boss. Otherwise, you won’t be able to stay in Jingcheng.”
Yang Ming looked down at him and said coldly.
Manager Zhang seemed to have all the strength drained from his body, collapsing helplessly on the ground.
It took him a while to come to his senses. He got up and walked out of the private room step by step, each step extremely difficult.
“Young Master Xu, we won’t disturb your meal any further. I’ll take my leave now.”
Yang Ming said respectfully to Xu Shaochen, typical of someone who acts one way to your face and another behind your back.
“Get lost.”
Xu Shaochen waved his hand as if shooing away flies.
“Yes, sir. I’m leaving right away.”
Yang Ming said with a bow, quickly exiting the private room and closing the door behind him.
After leaving the private room, Yang Ming instantly resumed his arrogant posture, head held high.
“Young Master Yang, about that three hundred and fifty million…”
Xie Bin tried to negotiate with Yang Ming, hoping he might help him out.
However, before he could finish, Yang Ming interrupted him: “Old Xie, you need to learn to be content. Do you think three hundred and fifty million is a lot? Do you know who that person just now was?”
“Who?” Xie Bin asked, confused.
“The young director of Xu Corporation. Do you think he’d care about that small amount of money? That’s why I proactively added another hundred million. Otherwise, this matter probably wouldn’t have been settled.”
Yang Ming said pretentiously, as if Xie Bin had already gotten a great deal, and it was all thanks to him.
Hearing Xu Shaochen’s identity, Xie Bin was stunned, his mind buzzing.
He hadn’t expected Sun Hai to have connections with such a big shot.
If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have cut off cooperation with him. Perhaps he could have used that connection to rise quickly.
Now it was too late.
He had lost three hundred and fifty million for nothing and offended someone important. He regretted it so much his guts turned green.
…
In the private room.
The waiters had started serving dishes one by one.
“Come on, everyone, let’s have a toast. Don’t let that small incident just now affect our mood.”
“That’s right, they were just a few clowns. Don’t let it ruin our appetite.”
“Come, let’s raise our glasses…”
Everyone exchanged toasts, and the atmosphere at the table was very lively.
“Brother Sun, are you still going back to Jiangzhou? If you stay in Jingcheng, you might have to wait for my corporation to go to Mg Country.”
Xu Shaochen said to Sun Hai.
“Then I’ll go back to Jiangzhou first and come back later. It’s convenient to travel by plane anyway.”
Sun Hai replied after a moment’s thought, then added, “I’ll be going back this afternoon. Just give me a call when you book the tickets.”
“Alright, then I won’t see you off.”
After the meal, everyone went their separate ways. Sun Hai returned to the hotel for an afternoon nap, then took the afternoon flight to Jiangzhou.
Xu Shaochen went to meet the group of researchers, sent them to Mg Country, then had Jenny arrange for a boat or plane to transport them to the island.
The laboratory on the island had already begun construction, and much of the experimental equipment had been shipped over.
With sufficient funds, building a laboratory wouldn’t take long. These people could be sent over to rest for a few days, and once the laboratory was completed, they could continue their research.
After sending the people off, Xu Shaochen returned to the hotel to take an afternoon nap with Xie Wei.
…
At nine o’clock in the evening.
Li Qian Ya arrived punctually in her red Ferrari to pick up Xu Shaochen at the hotel entrance.
“You’re dressed so beautifully. Is it specially for tonight’s date?”
After get into the Car, Xu Shaochen shamelessly looked Li Qian Ya up and down, then said jokingly.
Tonight, Li Qian Ya wore a black one-shoulder long dress, looking very elegant and graceful, dignified yet sensual.
Li Qian Ya rolled her eyes: “What do you mean by date? I’m already taken. Don’t talk nonsense. It’s just asking you out for a meal.”
This was her little strategy, to be ambiguous, letting Xu Shaochen vaguely sense her feelings without explicitly expressing them.
“Already taken?”
Xu Shaochen chuckled. Two women in a relationship, how interesting.
“That video from that night, I often take it out to watch. I didn’t realize you had such a nice figure.”
Xu Shaochen’s lips curled into a mischievous smile as he leaned close to Li Qian Ya’s ear, breathing hotly as he spoke.
Li Qian Ya’s body trembled slightly as she glared at him with a blushing face: “If you let anyone else see it, and if this gets out, I will definitely kill you.”
Thinking about the scene of her and Tang Silin doing that under Xu Shaochen’s gaze, she felt… truly thrilling.
“Don’t worry, how could I let anyone else see something so beautiful? Of course, I’m keeping it for my own slow appreciation.”
Xu Shaochen said matter-of-factly, casually placing a hand on Li Qian Ya’s leg.
He was conducting an experiment.
If Li Qian Ya moved away and got angry, it would mean she wasn’t using feminine charms on him.
If not, then naturally, it was the opposite.
Feeling the warmth on her leg, Li Qian Ya instinctively wanted to get angry, but ultimately forced herself to hold back, pretending not to notice and continuing to drive as if nothing had happened.
She inwardly sneered, sure enough, he’s a hypocritical lecher. Can’t hold back already?
That’s perfect. For this young lady to take you down, it’s as easy as reaching out my hand.
Li Qian Ya became more confident in her plan.
