Chapter 69: Class reunion
With a huge sum of money in his hand, Zhou Qi's heart did not have any waves, because this was what he deserved.
He saved Qin Jianguo's life, and he didn't know how much money it was, not to mention that he also used spiritual power. If it weren't for his help several times, Qin Jianguo would have died a long time ago. He chatted with Wu Zhengguo about some more digressions, then came to the office and continued to practice. Now he has figured out some doorways, and every time his strength improves, he gets closer to Xia Yiruo.
Just as he was thinking about what to do next, the phone rang.
It turned out that several classmates organized a party today, and everyone knew the news of Zhou Qi's return, so they kept asking Zhou Qi to go with them. Huang Xu couldn't resist their persuasion, so he called Zhou Qi to hear what he meant.
Zhou Qi was in a good mood, surprisingly did not refuse, and he also wanted to hear if there was any news about Xia Yiruo.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was night, and he took Huang Xu to his destination.
Subei City is a city that is more lively at night, and people who work during the day have no place to vent their desires, and at night it seems to be a different person.
The hotel where this party took place was an extremely grand restaurant called Subei Shijia. As you can see from the cars parked at the door, they are all millions of cars. Zhou Qi glanced at his "poor" Audi, and could only pray that he would not be too embarrassed today, talk less and eat more.
"Hello sir, is it Mr. Wang Yue's guest?"
As soon as I walked into the lobby, a waiter came over enthusiastically and asked.
This waiter also looks good, with a pure appearance, wearing a cheongsam with an extremely high slit. Huang Xu didn't leave this woman from the moment he came in, and his saliva was about to flow out. Seeing her coming, he immediately wagked his tail and went over to talk. The waiter had long been accustomed to the obscene gaze of the guests, but he did not show disgust.
led Zhou Qi and Huang Xu all the way to the private room on the second floor, and then bowed and left.
Pushing open the door of the private room, Zhou Qi saw Wang Yue sitting on the sofa in front of the floor-to-ceiling window at a glance. Zhou Qi didn't have a good impression of him before, and this time he came purely to meet other people. It's best to be able to get Xia Yiruo's news, if not, you can also catch up with old friends, there is no need to make the relationship too stiff.
This private room is very large, in addition to the large dining table in the middle, there is a coffee table in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, and two narrow sofas around it. Before the official meal, Wang Yue and a few classmates sat on the sofa and played poker. There were seven or eight people in total, all familiar faces.
Among them was Li Zhiyun, who was the first to stand up and smile when she saw Zhou Qi coming in. But the expressions of other people don't look very natural. Some stood up awkwardly, while others whispered something oddly.
"Yo, isn't this Zhou Qi? I heard that you are doing well now?"
Wang Yue was the first to speak, he didn't stand up, but threw the poker on the coffee table and looked at Zhou Qi with interest.
When he was in college before, Zhou Qi was a well-deserved protagonist among everyone. The study is average, but the person is very righteous. At school, some classmates were bullied, and Zhou Qi always called them back. Wang Yue used to pester Xia Yiruo a lot, and after being beaten by Zhou Qi a few times, he never dared to cause trouble again, and his sense of existence was extremely low.
Now seeing that he is actually sitting in the C position, Zhou Qi can't help but sigh with emotion that feng shui takes turns.
"Zhou Qi, don't you know, Wang Yue is also mixing very well now, doing some downstream business of Wuguo Group, taking a few big orders, and now he is the best mixed among our classmates...... Oh, certainly not as good as you, but I didn't tell them. ”
Seeing Zhou Qi's somewhat strange expression, Huang Xu whispered beside him.
Zhou Qi nodded, knowing that the person who was in charge of the situation this time was Wang Yue, so he guessed something more or less. The news of his return to northern Jiangsu was also accidentally leaked by Huang Xu. However, he didn't want to hide this matter too much, he just didn't want everyone to know about Xia Yiruo.
went straight to Wang Yue's side and sat down, Zhou Qi smiled and lit a cigarette, "Xiao Wang, it seems that you have been mixing well recently?
Although it has been many years, seeing Zhou Qi again, Wang Yue still can't help but remember the days when he was beaten before. But remembering that his net worth has long been expensive, he has more confidence in speaking, and his eyes are particularly playful, "It's not very successful, it's just that you made some money, Zhou Qi, where are you now?"
"Hey, it's just a casual part-time job and a car. ”
Zhou Qi snorted, "I'm hungry, don't you want to serve the food?"
It seems that before coming to the party, these people were all instructed by Wang Yue, and no one showed too much enthusiasm for Zhou Qi, but just nodded awkwardly.
Wang Yue looked at them with some reproach on the surface, but in fact, his heart had already blossomed.
Seeing that the atmosphere was almost over, he hurriedly beckoned everyone to dinner. I called the waiter and started to take care of the dishes, and after a while, the dishes began to be served one by one. Originally, Zhou Qi knew that it was a high-end place when he saw this environment, but when he saw the dishes, he knew that he was lonely and unheard. I felt like I knew them all, but I didn't know how to eat them.
Seeing Zhou Qi's embarrassment, Wang Yue laughed even more, "Hahaha, Zhou Qi, are you joking with us on purpose? This looks like a brush, but it's not, it's a yam, you have to eat it with this gold leaf!"
"I see, thank you, thank you, I don't know much about it. ”
Zhou Qi didn't care about him in general, and was about to pick up the chopsticks and go to clip them, but Li Zhiyun quietly kicked Zhou Qi.
"Zhou Qi, don't be in a hurry to eat first, we haven't drunk yet! Anyway, what have you been busy doing for the past few days? But Qin Kexin seems to have changed as a person, and their company immediately asked to sign a contract with me. She also sent someone to contact me privately and suggested that I open a company and prepare to give me more business. ”
didn't want others to know about these things, so Li Zhiyun leaned into Zhou Qi's ear and said.
But this posture is extremely ambiguous in front of others, especially Wang Yue.
Seeing this scene, Wang Yue clenched his fists under the table, and his hostility towards Zhou Qi became even stronger. Originally, he thought he was a successful person now, but he also found that Li Zhijun had become more beautiful, so he thought about starting to pursue her. Who would have thought that he was suppressed by Zhou Qi when he liked Xia Yiruo before, and he still does so.
It seemed that seeing Wang Yue unhappy, Zheng Liang next to him knocked on the table, and looked at Zhou Qi and Li Zhiyun with some reproach, "Alas, it's almost okay!
Zheng Liang's words woke up the people present, so they raised their glasses one after another, and there was a warm scene.
"Hmm, when did Wang Yue become President Wang? I remember that I used to be Manager Wang?" a girl asked knowingly. Her name is Zhang Nan, and her appearance is not overwhelming, but it is also a little exquisite. When he just sat down, he took the initiative to sit next to Wang Yue, and his body was in contact with him intentionally or unintentionally.
Wang Yue enjoyed it very much, but his eyes never left Li Zhiyun.
"Hehe, because I did a good job, I was promoted from a project manager to a vice president of the company. I said you too, don't keep talking about this, I didn't treat you because I was promoted, I just wanted to get together!
Zhou Qi sneered in his heart, he had long been a person-like character, how could he not know that under this calm surface, there were actually turbulent waves for a long time. He also saw that Wang Yue just wanted to take this opportunity to embarrass himself. However, he didn't bother to meet Wang Yue now, so he directly raised his head and killed him.
lit a cigarette and looked around with emotion, "I haven't seen you for a few years, everyone's appearance doesn't seem to have changed much, but I look older, is there any way to make a fortune, and don't forget me!"
"Hehe, it's easy to say, if you follow Mr. Wang, there will always be a day when you will come out!"
Zheng Liang can be called Wang Yue's chief dogleg, and hurriedly shouted, "Zhou Qi, I don't know what you've been doing all these years? Why don't you bring Xia Yiruo over? She's the school flower of our school, you can't keep it hidden, right?"
Hearing Zheng Liang's words, everyone also began to coax.
Li Zhiyun wanted to speak and stopped, originally wanted everyone not to talk about Xia Yiruo, but Zhou Qi waved his hand and refused.
"She's studying in England now, so she didn't come to the meeting. Let's not talk about this for a while, Mr. Wang, what kind of business are you doing now? Can you take me with you? I still want to save some private money!"
Wang Yue looked at Zhou Qi with a sneer, "It's easy to say, Zhou Qi, in fact, I just wanted to have two drinks with you when I called you today." Why don't you do this, I'll take a sip, you take a drink, and let me see your sincerity! Don't worry, I will definitely let you make money!"
Huang Xu was immediately unhappy, he endured it, stood up suddenly, and pointed at Wang Yue's nose, "What do you mean? Grass, make some money and feel like you're floating? What are you?"
"How do you talk to Mr. Wang?"
Zhou Qi glared at Huang Xu, walked over with a smile, pulled a chair and sat next to Wang Yue.
Originally, Wang Yue thought that Zhou Qi was going to do it, but seeing that he had a drink first, Wang Yue suddenly had the slightest fear of Zhou Qi was gone. After all, if you have money, you have confidence, he became the vice president of the company at a young age, and he can earn 3 million a year plus dividends, and he is already a successful person in the eyes of his classmates.
Of course, it's not that he is capable, but that his father also has some friendship with the branch boss of Wuguo Group.
Seeing Zhou Qi start drinking, the eyes of the surrounding classmates became a little disdainful. But how to say it, Zhou Qi used to be a popular figure in college. Now in order to make some money, he actually swallows his anger and accompanies Wang Yue to drink, which also makes everyone look down on him even more.
Li Zhiyun was extremely angry at this time, she was the person who knew Zhou Qi the most among these people besides Huang Xu. Although she guessed that Zhou Qi might not have much money, it was definitely more than just whispering. What's more, he also repaired an upstart two days ago, and now this appearance makes her feel a little uncomfortable.
"That's right, Zhou Qi, your alcohol consumption is rising!"
Wang Yue drank five sips of wine at this time, each sip was extremely small, obviously to tease Zhou Qi.
Zhou Qi didn't care, so he drank five glasses. His face was not red and his heart was not beating, he squinted his eyes and looked at Wang Yue, "Mr. Wang, I have drunk all the wine, if you make me unable to make money, I will be drunk and crazy, and even I am afraid." Fortunately, you haven't drunk much, so you should be more sober-minded, so don't say the wrong thing. ”
