Chapter 87: The Dinner Party

Liu Bufan was a little surprised and said, "It's you?"

The girl smiled and said, "It's me, Manager Liu has such a strong memory, he shouldn't have forgotten me so quickly!"

"This, how can it, I haven't had a chance to ask your name during the day!" Liu Bufan said with a smile.

"Then let's formally introduce it, hello, Manager Liu, my name is Nie Xiaoyu, and I am Mr. Zheng's secretary. Nie Xiaoyu stretched out his tender white hand and said.

Liu Bufan gently shook it on her palm and said, "Manager Nie, hello, my name is Liu Bufan!"

"Manager Liu is polite, I already know you, you are very impressed with us on the project, and Mr. Zheng admires you very much!"

"Then I'm really embarrassed, I didn't know Manager Nie earlier, and I was fortunate to be appreciated by Mr. Zheng. ”

"Manager Liu is so modest, you are looking for Mr. Zheng, right, she is still in a meeting, Mr. Zheng asked me to wait for you here, I will take you to sit down first." ”

"Okay, then I'm sorry for you!"

Nie Xiaoyu led Liu Bufan and began to walk to the guest table next to the podium in front, but at this time, there was no one in the seat. Liu Bufan saw the list on the table, there were ten people in total, his name was on it, and the names of Zheng Qitong and Nie Xiaoyu were on it, and he didn't know the others.

Nie Xiaoyu led Liu Bufan to sit down and said, "Manager Liu, Mr. Zheng and other leaders of the company are still in a meeting, let's sit here and wait first, they will come out after the meeting." ”

"Okay!" replied Liu Bufan as he sat upright, looking a little reserved.

Nie Xiaoyu covered his mouth and smiled, and said, "Manager Liu, why do you look nervous, you are very calm and calm at the construction site today, and you are also talking when introducing the work, why are you so nervous to have a meal?"

"This, I'm not from your company after all, I'm not familiar with life, and I'm not used to it. Liu Bufan said with some embarrassment.

"Haha, Manager Liu is still afraid of life, you look so cute when you are shy!" Nie Xiaoyu said with a smile.

"No, no, I'm just not used to crowded situations. Liu Bufan hurriedly denied it.

"It's okay, relax, it's like a party with friends, and we won't do anything to you!" Nie Xiaoyu comforted.

"Okay, thank you!"

"Manager Liu, do you know, you are the first man invited by our President Zheng to the company's banquet!" Nie Xiaoyu asked suddenly.

"I really don't know this, I'm actually an ordinary person, just do a good job seriously, maybe Mr. Zheng recognizes my work, so I was fortunate to be invited to your company's New Year's Day dinner. Liu Bufan replied modestly.

"Manager Liu is really modest, the people who can come here to participate in our company's dinner are cadres and above, you are a special guest, you can't say that it is just an honor, if you and Mr. Zheng don't know each other, then you must have something special, Mr. Zheng will not invite others at will." Nie Xiaoyu continued to probe.

"This, then I really don't know, maybe Mr. Zheng has his own ideas. Liu Bufan disguised.

"Manager Liu, how did you meet our President Zheng?" Nie Xiaoyu asked curiously.

"This, this, is what I learned from working on a project. ”

"You lied to me, Mr. Zheng has only been to the project a few times, it is impossible to be so familiar with you, just tell me the truth. Nie Xiaoyu stared at Liu Bufan with his eyes and said.

"That's the case, think about it, I'm just an ordinary project manager of a small company, where is there a chance to meet you President Zheng?" Liu Bufan didn't dare to look directly at Nie Xiaoyu, and turned to the side and said.

"If you don't say it, don't say it, stingy. Nie Xiaoyu pretended to be angry and said.

Liu Bufan just smiled and didn't answer again.

The two sat for a while, Zheng Qitong and a group of people in suits walked out of a conference room, among them, a number of men and women in suits walked to different guest tables and sat down, Zheng Qitong and the seven people inside walked to Liu Bufan, Liu Bufan and Nie Xiaoyu immediately stood up to greet Zheng Qitong.

Zheng Qitong walked over, stretched out his hand to Liu Bufan, and said, "Manager Liu, hello." ”

Liu Bufan also immediately stretched out his hand, shook hands with Zheng Qitong gently, and said, "Mr. Zheng, hello, thank you for the invitation, I am very honored to participate in your company's New Year's Day dinner." ”

"You're welcome, just treat it as your own company's banquet, sit down. Zheng Qitong invited Liu Bufan to sit down.

"Thank you, Mr. Zheng, please first!"

Zheng Qitong sat down on the main seat, Nie Xiaoyu sat next to Zheng Qitong, and Liu Bufan sat next to Nie Xiaoyu.

At this time, the whole banquet hall is still a variety of conversational voices, a man walked to the stage, holding the microphone and said: "Colleagues, everyone be quiet, tonight is our company's annual New Year's Day dinner, we are fortunate to get together to celebrate this beautiful festival, this is a grand event, now welcome our company Zheng Zheng to give a speech." ”

The audience resounded with warm applause, Zheng Qitong got up and walked slowly to the stage, took the microphone, and said: "Colleagues, guests, good evening, tonight is the day of saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new, on behalf of the company, I would like to extend holiday greetings to all employees, guests and their families! I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to people from all walks of life who care about and support the company's cause! I wish you all a happy new year, a happy family, and all the best!"

In the past year, our company has achieved fruitful results......

......

......

......

Today, we are gathered here, not only to celebrate our achievements, but also a kind of fate, let us remember this beautiful night, welcome the new atmosphere together, and finally, I wish you all a happy New Year's Day!

The audience burst into warm applause again, Zheng Qitong returned to her seat, and then each table began to eat.

Zheng Qitong asked the people at the table to eat, but no one moved, and only after Zheng Qitong moved the chopsticks did everyone start eating.

After swallowing a few bites of food, Zheng Qitong picked up the red wine in his hand and said: "Colleagues, as well as our friends, Manager Liu Bufan, thank you for your contributions and efforts to the company, and I respect you!"

Liu Bufan and the people at the table picked up their wine glasses and said in unison: "Thank you Mr. Zheng for your support and concern." ”

Everyone clinks glasses on the table and drinks the red wine from the glass.

Next, everyone began to eat again, and in the process, everyone kept toasting Zheng Qitong, and Liu Bufan was sandwiched in the middle and also toasted Zheng Qitong.

Zheng Qitong said: "Manager Liu, you are very talented, and our company also warmly welcomes talents like you, otherwise come to our company for development?"

"Thank you Mr. Zheng for your kindness, I still want to continue to stay in the current company and contribute a little bit to the company, and I have no intention of developing elsewhere for the time being. Liu Bufan politely refused.

"That's a pity, if Manager Liu wants to develop elsewhere, our company will always welcome you. Zheng Qitong continued to throw an olive branch.

"Thank you, Mr. Zheng!"

Liu Bufan couldn't recognize the other people at the table, so he could only quietly ask Nie Xiaoyu everyone's name, and then toast to them, and after a round, Liu Bufan's face began to redden.

Nie Xiaoyu lowered his head and whispered in Liu Bufan's ear: "Manager Liu, your face is so red, are you okay?"

Liu Bufan shook his hand and said, "It's okay, I'm just drinking and face, it's okay!"

Zheng Qitong also saw Liu Bufan and Nie Xiaoyu constantly talking to each other, their faces changed slightly, but it was not obvious, everyone was busy toasting and eating, and they didn't pay attention.

However, Zheng Qitong is the object of everyone's toast, she can't stop, wave after wave of people come to this table to toast her, and Nie Xiaoyu is much more relaxed, as a secretary, she doesn't need to drink, she has to take care of Zheng Qitong, even if someone comes to salute her, she just drinks a little drink; Liu Bufan is even less, because basically no one knows him, he sits in the seat to eat, or practice with Nie Xiaoyu, and occasionally watch Zheng Qitong toast and talk to others.

The whole banquet lasted for more than 3 hours before it slowly stopped, Liu Bufan estimated that Zheng Qitong drank at least 2 boxes of red wine (12 bottles), and the company's toasters basically drank with her, Zheng Qitong held her face with both hands, propped up on the table, her face was slightly red, and she looked a little cute.

Zheng Qitong turned his face to look at Liu Bufan, Liu Bufan also looked at Zheng Qitong, smiled, and said, "Mr. Zheng, you are really massive, are you okay?"

Zheng Qitong smiled and said, "It's okay, it's not the first time." ”

Liu Bufan persuaded: "Mr. Zheng, seeing that you have drunk so much, everyone has drunk to the fullest, why don't you go back and take a rest." ”

"Well, it's not too early, so I'll send you back. ”

"It's okay, Mr. Zheng, it's important for you to go back and rest, I'll just take a taxi back." ”

"It's almost 12 o'clock, it's hard to take a taxi, just come with us. Zheng Qitong persuaded.

"Then thank you, Mr. Zheng. ”

So, the three of them got up and prepared to leave, Zheng Qitong got together, and they were a little swaying, so frightened that Nie Xiaoyu hurriedly helped her, Liu Bufan also ran over and helped her, Zheng Qitong said that the rest of the people said hello, and then, Liu Bufan and Nie Xiaoyu helped them go downstairs.

The two helped Zheng Qitong to the right position in the back row of her BMW, Nie Xiaoyu didn't drink, so she went to drive, Liu Bufan was about to sit in the co-pilot seat, and Zheng Qitong said, "Manager Liu, you sit in the back seat." ”

Liu Bufan looked at Zheng Qitong and then at Nie Xiaoyu, Nie Xiaoyu gave him a look and asked him to sit in the back.

So, Liu Bufan opened the car door behind Nie Xiaoyu and sat next to Zheng Qitong.

Nie Xiaoyu started the car and was about to leave, and after leaving the garage, Nie Xiaoyu asked, "Do you want to send Manager Liu back first, or go home first?"

Liu Bufan hurriedly said: "Let's send Mr. Zheng home first, she is like this, she needs to take a break, I'm fine, I can take a taxi back." ”

Zheng Qitong had closed his eyes and fell into the back seat, seemingly asleep, and did not respond to Nie Xiaoyu's question.

Nie Xiaoyu turned around and glanced at Zheng Qitong, followed Liu Bufan's suggestion, and planned to send Zheng Qitong home first.

Nie Xiaoyu navigated the route and drove to Zheng Qitong's house, Zheng Qitong still closed her eyes and fell asleep, Liu Bufan kept looking at Zheng Qitong, worried that something would happen to her.

When the car drove over a speed bump, it shook, Zheng Qitong's body shook and fell on Liu Bufan's lap, Liu Bufan was startled, and quickly held Zheng Qitong's arm with his hand, but Zheng Qitong didn't seem to wake up, lying on his lap and didn't get up.
