Chapter Ninety-Eight: An Ambiguous Drinking Party
At half past seven in the evening, at the reception reception of Yinhan Company, he was beautiful, tall, wearing a casual light blue loose T-shirt, a light yellow scarf on his shoulders, gray and white cropped pants, and brown high heels. A simple and neat dress can not only fully show the advantages of the figure, but also fully reflect the confidence and elegance of the temperament.
Undoubtedly, the blue plum has become the most prominent scenery at the reception.
"Blue has always been more and more appealing to me. β
Walking towards Lanmei with half a glass of brandy in his hand was the main guest tonight - Lin Xiao, the general manager of the Chinese company of Shanghai Connaught from Shencheng. A businessman who is not confused, wears glasses, and is of mixed American and Japanese (American father, Japanese and mother) and gentle and elegant businessmen.
"Mr. Lin, long time no see. β
I don't know if it's because of Lin Xiao's words, or because the temperature in the hall is a little high, the blue plum is white and red, and a faint flush flies on the delicate cheeks unconsciously. So, in the appearance that exudes the elegance of intellectual women, a hint of charm is added.
"Yes, it's been a year, three months and ten days. β
Lin Xiao showed a good impression of himself, Lan Mei felt it when the two met for the first time three years ago.
"Hehe, it's hard for Mr. Lin to remember it so clearly. β
"That's nature. The two touched the wine glass in their hands again, and Lin Xiao said meaningfully: "If the two of us can cooperate successfully this time, Mr. Lan, as the technical director of your company, is also the main designer of this project, and it is indispensable to stay in our company for a while." β
"Whether the cooperation can be successful or not, the sincerity of our company has long been placed here, and the rest depends on Mr. Lin's attitude. β
"My attitude is important, but the attitude of the head office is even more important. Therefore, Mr. Lan needs to take a suitable opportunity to lobby in the United States in person. β
"The right opportunity?"
"yes. For example, the 50th anniversary of our company is at the beginning of next month. If it is convenient for Mr. Lan, I am willing to put aside everything at hand and personally accompany Mr. Lan back. β
"Mr. Lin, I am just an employee of Yinhan Company, and the specific work arrangement is decided by the company's leaders. β
"Not really. In this project, I heard that your company has been fully entrusted to Mr. Lan, and everything is based on Mr. Lan, including work arrangements, and there is no need to consult the company. β
"Mr. Lin is so well-informed?"
"Otherwise, how can you do it? Lin Xiao raised his wine glass and gestured to Lan Mei, raised his head and drank a large sip of brandy, and then said half-jokingly: "The pursuit of beauty is even more so, the opportunity is fleeting." β
In the face of Lin Xiao's explicit confession, Lan Mei did not show an expression of disgust, but just smiled faintly, and immediately turned the topic back to the project that the two were going to cooperate on this time.
When Lan Mei and Lin Xiao were talking to each other, although Kou Xinlei, the general manager of Yinhan Company, was busy greeting the six subordinates who accompanied Lin Xiao, his eyes never stayed away from Lan Mei and the two who were not far away.
The reason why Lan Mei was given so much freedom was because Kou Xinlei had long found that Lin Xiao was interesting to Lan Mei. As for Lan Mei's fiancΓ© Fu Yuan, the captain of the Municipal Bureau's Serious Crime Team, and they will get married at the end of this year, Kou Xinlei is of course very clear. However, for the sake of the company's interests, he naturally would not interfere with Lin Xiao's initiative to pursue Lanmei, and in fact, he had no right to interfere. Not only that, but he is always providing opportunities for the two.
For example, this time, Lin Xiao called Kou Xinlei before leaving from Shencheng and said that he must see Lanmei at night, otherwise he would go directly to Songyuan City. Hearing this, Kou Xinlei did not hesitate to call Lin Xiao on the phone.
Not only is Kou Xinlei aware of the project currently being negotiated with Lin Xiao's Connaught Company, and the relevant technical issues have already been recognized by the other party without further discussion, but Lan Mei, who is the main designer, knows it well. However, when Kou Xinlei informed Lan Mei to come to tonight's reception, Lan Mei also agreed without hesitation.
Therefore, Kou Xinlei, who was standing in the distance and quietly observing Lan Mei and Lin Xiao, couldn't help but wonder in his heart, did Lan Mei also have a good impression of Lin Xiao? If this is the case, this cooperation with Connaught Company is basically a sure thing.
"Mr. Lan, is it unfair to accompany guests with champagne?"
"Hehe, Mr. Lin doesn't know, I'm not good at drinking. β
"I only know that Mr. Lan has never drunk in front of me, and I don't know if Mr. Lan is good at drinking. β
"Mr. Lan might as well change it, Mr. Lin is the most respected guest of our company. β
At this time, Kou Xinlei walked over, directly reached out and took the champagne from Lan Mei's hand, and handed her a glass of brandy.
"Hehe, Mr. Kou is still empathetic. After Lin Xiao raised his head and drank the brandy in the wine glass, he said to Lan Mei: "According to your Chinese habits, I call this the first dry for respect." β
Lan Mei didn't look at the eighty percent full glass of brandy in her hand, but turned her head to look at Kou Xinlei who was standing beside her.
"Mr. Lin doesn't know, but I know how much you drink. Come on, for the cooperation of our two companies, let's return a glass to Mr. Lin together. β
Lan Mei didn't say anything more, picked up the wine glass and drank it as soon as she raised her head. so much so that it attracted Lin Xiao's applause on the other side.
That's what drinking is, unless you don't start drinking at all, otherwise it's hard to stop once you start. So, under the intentional arrangement of Lin Xiao and Kou Xinlei, Lan Mei began to accompany the six subordinates brought by Lin Xiao to make a glass of brandy each.
The alcohol content of brandy is between 42~45 degrees, and after seven or eight glasses, there is almost a liter of it. Lan Mei's pretty face, which can be broken and does not lose the elegant temperament of an intellectual woman, has long been covered with redness, which makes Lin Xiao even more impatient in his eyes.
"Mr. Lan is willing to enjoy his face and dance with me?"
"Mr. Lin, how did you dance when you drank high and were dizzy?"
Mr. Lan was humble again. Look at Mr. Lan's demeanor, how can he be a little drunk. β
Although Lan Mei politely rejected Lin Xiao, when Lin Xiao bent down to salute him and made a standard elegant gesture of "please dance", after a little hesitation, she reached out and gently put her hand on Lin Xiao's shoulder.
As the soft music in the hall sounded, the two began to dance. So much so that all the people who participated in the reception took the initiative to give up their positions in the middle of the hall and stand aside to quietly enjoy the dancing of the two.
I have to say that Lanmei is not only beautiful and temperamental, but also dances beautifully. Even Kou Xinlei, who is the CEO of the company, found out for the first time that the dancing blue plum was so fascinating, so it is no wonder that Lin Xiao always spares no effort to pursue her whenever he has the opportunity.
Gradually, under the influence of Lan Mei and Lin Xiao, other people also began to join in the dancing, and the atmosphere of the drinking party was suddenly pushed to a climax.
"May, I'm happy tonight. β
Gently hugging Lan Mei, who exudes the fragrance of wine and women in her breath, whether it is her figure, cheeks, or temperament, Lin Xiao is already eight points drunk. Involuntarily, the tone of his speech also became ambiguous.
"With Mr. Lin's status and academic temperament, what kind of girl do you want to find?"
Hearing this, Lin Xiao's heart suddenly beat violently. With years of experience, he knows that as long as a girl does not reject her ambiguous expression, but says such things euphemistically, it is tantamount to telling you that she is already willing to accept you.
As a result, Lin Xiao gradually tightened the arm wrapped around Lan Mei's slender waist. And Lan Mei really didn't resist, when her plump breasts were attached to Lin Xiao's chest, Lin Xiao, who was in a state of excitement, went further and gently rubbed Lan Mei's blown-up and slightly hot cheeks with her side face, suppressed the ecstasy in her heart and whispered: "Mei, I brought you a gift this time, and I left it in the hotel room." After the party, will you come with me?"
Lan Mei didn't answer immediately, but hesitated for a moment before using the same low and inaudible voice, with a burning breath from her mouth and nose, she leaned close to Lin Xiao's ear and said, "What kind of gift is Mr. Lin, I may not know, my favorite is Uncle Sam's tears." β
Lin Xiao, who heard Lan Mei's words, his body was obviously stiff for a moment, and he even stepped on the wrong dance steps, and even stepped on Lan Mei's feet.
But Lan Mei didn't say anything, and she didn't even frown. Just restored his body to its original state, and after leaving Lin Xiao's embrace, he looked at each other with a blurred gaze. With the end of a dance music, Lan Mei's crimson face showed a look of infatuation and reluctance, and slowly turned around and walked out of the reception hall.
