C161 Attitudinal Shift

Ye Chen did not pay attention to them, but looked at the two men, and said indifferently: "In the future, don't talk so much nonsense. I've never heard a single word, the villain always dies from talking too much."

"You …"

The two men opened their eyes wide with difficulty. Their eyes were filled with indignation and unwillingness.

They were unresigned because they were caught off guard by Ye Chen before they could even use their real abilities. They were angry because Ye Chen did not follow the rules of the competition and had directly attacked them without even greeting them.

"Xu Tun, next time you want to change friends, I'm afraid these two won't be able to protect you when danger comes." At this time, Ye Chen turned his head to look at Xu Yaoming, and said without hurry.

Xu Yaoming's face darkened, he nodded his head vigorously.

When the two men heard this, they were extremely embarrassed and indignant. They had said what Ye Chen had said just now, but now they could hear that his words were extremely ear-piercing. They had not been humiliated like this for many years, and now, they wished that they could find a hole to hide in.

However, this humiliation was something they had brought upon themselves.

Ye Chen released them and walked behind Lu Xueqi.

The two of them did not speak a word. Even if Lu Xueqi refused to cooperate, she did not suffer any more humiliation, nor did he disappoint Lu Xueqi.

To the two of them, this had already formed a tacit understanding.

It was a mutual understanding that belonged solely to them.

...

Xu Yaoming sat on his right hand side, and and Li Qiuyue were naturally sitting on their lower seats. There was also a woman at the side, who should be Xu Yaoming's secretary.

Everyone sat down, and Lu Xueqi even subconsciously turned to look at Ye Chen.

Seeing the latter's normal expression and that she was even talking to Li Qiuyue in a low voice, the expression on her face slightly improved.

Ye Chen did not notice these small movements, but Xu Yaoming did.

"Outsiders have always said that Lu Xueqi loathes men, and even refused to shake hands with normal men. From the looks of it, that doesn't seem to be the case either." He muttered in her heart, and sized Ye Chen up with a slightly deeper look in his eyes.

It was very unsuccessful for him to display his might at the entrance.

Not only was he unable to suppress Lu Xueqi's aura, it was the opposite.

However, he was not angry. This was just a method.

The matter would be over once it was over. After all, the purpose of today's meal was to have an initial contact with each other and see how the two sides viewed each other's cooperation.

The Hua People's wine table culture was very rich.

The collaboration between many companies was completed at the wine table. First, they drank wine. After three rounds of wine, they were slightly tipsy. When the atmosphere was at its warmest, a deal could be concluded.

On the contrary, it was during the signing of the contract that the situation took a turn for the worse.

The waiter served the dishes.

Soon, all the dishes were served.

Xu Yaoming was also wearing a smile on his face, casually chatting with Lu Xueqi.

It was just that after a while, Xu Yaoming felt that his smiling face had stiffened, but on the contrary, Lu Xueqi's expression was still as cold as ever.

In truth, although Lu Xueqi looked calm on the surface, she was actually a little anxious in her heart.

However, she did not have much experience with these worldly matters and rarely attended social gatherings. If it was at a gathering with many people, she would only need to quietly stand to the side and say a few words whenever someone came into contact with her. She could handle that kind of situation, but there were only two people at the table right now, so she really didn't know how to respond.

She didn't know how to liven up the atmosphere, and due to her personality, she wasn't in the mood to get in the limelight. Thus, the atmosphere at the dining table became more and more awkward.

In the end, the wine in the glasses in front of the two failed to drink.

If this continued, the alliance would be in vain.

Ye Chen sighed. Seeing that Lu Xueqi was acting like a university student who had just entered society, she laughed helplessly, then stood up and walked in front of Xu Yaoming while holding her wine cup.

However, the latter did not drink his toast. It was not because he looked down on Ye Chen, but because of the rules, the rules of the winery, and especially the winery that accompanied the owner.

You're just an employee, and yet you haven't even seen your boss make any moves. What right do you have to go overboard and take responsibility? In the eyes of the leaders, this is simply disobeying the rules.

Of course, Xu Yaoming knew that the relationship between Lu Xueqi and Lu Xueqi wasn't ordinary, so he didn't say anything.

Even though he was being ignored, Ye Chen did not appear to be flustered and exasperated, and continued to hold his wine cup with a smile.

When Lu Xueqi saw this, she suddenly felt a little awkward. The reason why Ye Chen had become such an awkward situation was because of her.

She had never been able to respond to social calls in the first place, and now that things had developed to this point, she felt even more at a loss as to what to do.

Just then, the private room's door suddenly opened, Wan Changjiang walked in anxiously, and apologized with his hands held up: "CEO Lu, Xu Tun, I'm sorry, I was delayed by something."

Xu Yaoming looked at him and frowned: "Old Wan, you aren't much of a middleman. You must get yourself three cups of wine."

"Old Xu, you tricked me. I don't know that I don't drink at all, and I'm sick now. Although it's fine, I can't drink this wine, so I'll use tea in place of wine." Wan Changjiang chuckled as he walked over, but when he saw Ye Chen standing beside Xu Yaoming with a cup in his hand, even though he did not drink wine, he would often mix in with the winery, so he naturally knew what was going on.

The smile on his face faded as he said in a low voice, "Old Xu, do you know who saved my life?"

"Who?"

Xu Yaoming asked.

"It's little brother Ye." Wan Changjiang patted Ye Chen's shoulder, and said while smiling: "To be honest, I almost became sworn brothers with Little Brother Ye, but unfortunately, he rejected me.

When he said these words, Xu Yaoming's originally arrogant expression disappeared, and he looked at Ye Chen with a face full of shock: "Little brother, your medical skills are impressive. Old Wan had never told us who saved him, but I didn't expect you to be so young."

As he spoke, he had already stood up. After that, he raised the cup with both hands and lightly clinked them against the cup held by Ye Chen, and said: "I'll do it first."

By doing this, not only had he placed Ye Chen on an equal footing, he also had the intention of making friends with him.

After all, these friends of theirs all knew about the illness of the Old Wan. It was said that it was an incurable disease, yet it was cured, and as for why he was sure that Wan Changjiang had cured it, it was because if Wan Changjiang's illness was not cured, he would be in the mood to contact other people's business.

As for why they wanted to make friends with Ye Chen, that was even easier, people who eat five grains and no grains, who wouldn't get sick, even if they couldn't, the relatives beside them could still get sick, right?

This could also be considered a precautionary measure.
