Rebirth: Back to before the tragedy
Chapter 22: Zong Shao’s Banquet (2)
"Big star, you are wrongly accusing me."
Zong Yaohui was not surprised by the fact that Chi Morong had a new female companion today. In their circle, this kind of thing was very common.
However, since she is a woman following Master Chi, we should still give her some face.
Therefore, Zong Yaohui didn't take the other party's resistance to drinking seriously.
"Mr. Chi is now a major shareholder of our company. I can only curry favor with him, but I dare not force him to drink."
“I’m really happy today. Since Master Chi has a beautiful woman to look after him tonight, I’ll drink it myself.”
As he said this, he drank the wine in his hand again.
Zong Yaohui was happy from the bottom of his heart. As a Chinese, he had been subject to technological blockades by certain countries in some fields of high-end technology. Now that he had opened a technology company, his goal was naturally to hope that one day he would no longer be strangled in his field.
However, in terms of technology, we are already lagging behind others. If we want to overcome technical difficulties all at once, we need human and financial support.
And it’s not a small number.
Now, with the financial support of Shengshi Group behind Chi Morong, he no longer has to worry about insufficient funds and interruption of research and development.
The company's scientific researchers can focus on research and development without any worries.
"Uncle, I toast you and wish you success soon."
Zhou Guangqi, who had a chubby figure, stood up with a wine glass in his hand.
Although he is more than a generation older than Master Chi and Master Zong, his family background is not as good as theirs. He is a distant relative of the Zong family.
In terms of seniority, you should call Zong Yaohui uncle.
Moreover, he is good at dealing with people and, with the help of the Zong family, he is doing quite well in the circle.
At this moment, he stood up and tried to smooth things over.
Liu Xiran, who was sitting next to Chi Morong, looked at the two people drinking from their cups not far away, then turned to look at the man next to him, resting her hand on the man's arm on his lap, with a worried tone in her voice.
"Master Chi, did I do something wrong?"
Chi Morong lowered his head and glanced at the woman next to him. His eyes fell on the soft hand resting on his arm. Another pair of fair hands flashed through his mind.
He pulled up the hand of the woman next to him and kneaded it gently, frowning. The touch was indeed not as soft as the other hands, nor as white as those hands.
Although those hands are white and tender, they can sometimes turn into sharp claws.
Thinking of this, Chi Morong frowned. Next time, he would have to cut his nails first.
"Mr. Chi?"
Liu Xiran looked at the man beside him who didn't answer for a long time, and he suddenly felt uneasy.
Chi Morong came back to his senses and patted his little hands in a soothing manner.
"Our own people, no defense."
Liu Xiran finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'm afraid you might drink too much at once and get upset in your stomach."
Having been with Master Chi for several years, Liu Xiran knew that he had stomach problems. He did not think much about it and blurted out the offer to drink.
"Mr. Chi, have a bowl of soup."
Liu Xiran stood up, filled a bowl of soup and placed it in front of the man.
The women around Mr. Chi came and went, but Liu Xiran was able to stay by his side for five years, all thanks to this consideration.
During the dinner, Liu Xiran found a free moment and came up to Zong Yaohui with a glass of wine in hand.
"Master Zong, I was abrupt just now. I hope you can forgive me."
"You're welcome, Miss Liu."
The two wine glasses clinked together, and the matter was over.
"I wish you early success."
"Lend your auspicious words."
While Liu Xiran was in the bathroom, Zong Yaohui sat next to Chi Morong.
"Liu Xiran has been by your side for quite some time. Today I have come to realize that she is quite capable and has the bearing of a queen."
Seeing the unhappy look on the face of the person next to him, Zong Yaohui realized that he had said something wrong after drinking, and hurriedly changed the subject.
"I thought Miss Jiang looked kind to me that day, but today I discovered that she actually looks a bit like Liu Xiran."
Chi Morong glanced at Zong Yaohui with a warning look.
"You drank too much."
Zong Yaohui's heart trembled, and he came to his senses.
"It seems that I really drank too much today. I can't control my words. Please forgive me."
Zong Yaohui smiled apologetically, drank a glass of wine as a punishment, and then left.
Sitting on the sofa beside him, he said to Zhou Guangqi,
"Ask the waiter to bring me a cup of hangover soup."
I sat there, feeling a little regretful.
Although Chi Morong and I are old friends and grew up together, and both carry the title of "young master" when we go out, the weight of the title is still different.
My family only started to prosper from my great-grandfather's generation, and then took advantage of the favorable situation, and after several generations of management, it was able to develop and expand to today's scale. Even so, it is only ranked among the best in the country.
The Chi family has been royal merchants since their ancestors, and have been doing business for generations. Their foundation is unmatched by ordinary businessmen.
In addition, during the special period in the early years, the Chi family moved overseas and opened up overseas markets. Today, Shengshi Group has companies and industries in various countries around the world and has long been among the world's top 500 companies.
One is national, the other is global, there is no comparison.
Just take this investment as an example. Several hundred million are the cash flow of the entire Zongjia Company. Once all of it is invested in future technology, Zongjia Company will be left with no cash flow. Once there is an emergency, the cash flow will be cut off, which is very dangerous.
But these hundreds of millions are just a drop in the bucket for Chi Morong and Shengshi Group.
Chi Morong’s own personal investment alone amounted to 100 million.
Not to mention the subsequent scientific research funds, which is an even bigger expense.
But Shengshi Group took only two days to finalize such a large investment, which shows that the company has strong financial resources.
Therefore, in the second-generation circle, Chi Morong is still the leader.
How could the heir of such a big family marry an actress?
The mistress of a wealthy family is an actress. This is something that only happens in novels. In reality, how many such things actually happen?
But I just said that a little star has the bearing of a queen, which is really offensive.
Drinking will cause trouble, luckily Young Master Chi doesn't care. If someone with ulterior motives heard it and passed it on to the ears of the old lady of the Chi family, then he would be asking for trouble.
It seems that I have to control my drinking when I am outside in the future.
Zong Yaohui secretly reminded himself in his heart.
He gave Zhou Guangqi a wink, and after he left, he drank the sobering soup brought by the waiter.
As for alcohol, I never touched it again.
A few minutes later, a row of young women in gauze dance costumes entered the private room.
As the sound of the pipa played beside them, they danced gracefully in front of everyone.
The men present stopped talking and admired the dance in front of them.
Liu Xiran came back from the bathroom and saw this scene as soon as he entered the door.
I smiled coldly in my heart, what a beautiful woman holding the pipa with her face half covered.
