Chapter 761: He Touches Me!
Seeing this guy, Pierre gritted his teeth and said to Xiao Ping: "It's him, Durant is here!"
Durant wore a slim suit, deliberately unbuttoned the top two buttons of his black shirt, and looked very frivolous and looked like a playboy. As soon as he entered the venue, he looked around at the setting, and at the same time pursed the corners of his lips and made a disdainful expression, as if he didn't pay attention to the exquisite decoration of the venue at all.
Then Durant's gaze swept over the guests, and finally landed on Pierre, with a smug smile on his face.
Pierre had been staring at Durant closely, and when the two men's eyes met in the air, there seemed to be a flurry of sparks in the air.
This was the first time Xiao Ping saw that Pierre was really angry, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "What a strong resentment." ”
Pierre was not only Xiao Ping's subordinate, but also his good friend. Seeing that the French were so angry, Xiao Ping instantly decided to help him vent his anger and find a way to break Durant's prestige.
Just as Xiao Ping made up his mind, Durant had already come to the two with a mocking smile on his face. He glanced Pierre up and down, and said triumphantly, "Pierre, Pierre, my old friend, how are you doing?"
Pierre said coldly: "How am I doing, will you not know what to do?"
"Tsk, you don't look good like this. Durant deliberately stimulated Pierre: "I heard that you also failed to open a restaurant in China, so you can only sell the restaurant and come back? ”
Pierre whispered, "Durant." Don't think I don't know what you've done! If you hadn't been behind my back, I wouldn't have lost my position as chef in the first place. It's even more impossible to sell in restaurants in China!"
Durant didn't pay attention to Pierre's words at all, and said with a smug smile: "What do you know? It's not that you can't change the fate of your failure? Don't be the manager of some holy pot food company." I thought I could make a comeback. I'll be honest with you, Pierre, as long as I'm here with Durant, you'll never want to come out!"
Pierre was furious by Durant's words, and involuntarily clenched his fists. If it weren't for his company's promotion meeting, he would have been unable to help beating that nasty face.
Seeing that Pierre was very angry, Xiao Ping next to him hurriedly interjected: "This is Mr. Durant, right? Today is a big day for the company to hold a promotion meeting, and we don't want any accidents to happen." If you're here to attend the event, we'd love to hear from you. If you're here to cause trouble...... The gate is over there. Please go out on your own!"
Xiao Ping's tone was very unpolite, causing Durant to stare at him for a while, and then sneered: "You are Pierre's Chinese boss, right? Losers can only be with losers, and you are definitely a failed guy if you actually find a loser like Pierre to cooperate."
Europe's high-end food market is highly competitive, and it's not something losers like you can do. A company run by a loser like you can only produce some garbage, and it is doomed to failure!"
Xiao Ping only thought that Durant's words were farting, and just smiled faintly and said, "Let's see." ”
Xiao Ping's low profile made Durant mistakenly think that he was weak-hearted. Triumphantly said to him: "Chinese, maybe you still don't know the way." I, Durant, have just been elected vice president of the Paris Chefs Association, and many of my peers have a lot of respect for me. Why are there so few chefs coming today? It's because I asked everyone to boycott this promotion! As long as I'm here, your company wants to open up the situation in France. No way!"
Durant's words made Xiao Ping laugh angrily. This guy actually dared to say to his face that he was instigating other chefs to boycott the promotion meeting, and he really took shamelessness as his character. If it weren't for the promotion meeting, Xiao Ping would definitely have secretly made a little effort to give him some hardship.
But at the moment, Xiao Ping doesn't want to cause more trouble. just sneered at Durant: "Enjoy the present day, I'm afraid your days as the vice president of the Chef Association won't be too long!"
"What do you mean by that?" Durant was concerned about the identity of the vice president. After listening to Xiao Ping's words, he involuntarily lowered his face and asked.
That's when Jessica and her interview team arrived. Today's promotion will invite a lot of media. But Hell's Kitchen is undoubtedly the most weighty of them all. Relying on her special relationship with Xiao Ping, Jessica didn't just take pictures next to her like other media, but went straight to Xiao Ping and smiled: "Mr. Xiao, we meet again!"
Jessica is a woman who has a clear distinction between public and private, and now because she is working, she has such a formal name for Xiao Ping. Xiao Ping also understood her intentions, and smiled politely: "Hello Miss Taylor, are you planning to interview me?" Unfortunately, I don't have time to give an interview now, but after the promotion meeting, I can accept your in-depth interview. ”
"In-depth interview" has become a secret word between the two, Jessica couldn't help laughing when she heard it, and glanced at Xiao Ping meaningfully and said, "Okay, I'm looking forward to it very much!"
As soon as Jessica appeared, the stunning light made Durant next to her swoon. Seeing her charming smile at this time, Durant felt even more itchy, and couldn't help but think to himself: "This woman is so beautiful, it seems that she is a reporter who came to interview, if you can get her......"
Durant is not only despicable, but also has the romance and arrogance that is characteristic of the French. He saw that Jessica was American, and felt that he could easily impress her with French romance, and there was no problem at all with a kiss to Fang Ze or something.
Thinking of this, Durant began to act, bowed to Jessica in what he thought was the most chic posture, and said: "This beautiful young lady, whose name is Jean-Durant, is the vice president of the Paris Chefs Association, I wonder if Lu Dao has the honor to know your name?"
Jessica didn't have a crush on Durant, she just thought he was a guest at the promotion. And after all, this guy still has the identity of the vice president of the Paris Chefs Association, which also makes Jessica look at Durant a little differently, and smiles politely at him: "My name is Jessica Taylor." ”
"Oh, what a name. Durant took the opportunity to get close to Jessica: "I wonder if Miss Taylor has time to have dinner together when the promotion meeting is over?"
Seeing that Durant dared to be close to his own woman, Xiao Ping was naturally angry, and immediately whispered in Chinese: "It was this guy who secretly resisted our promotion meeting, so that many chefs did not come." ”
Durant didn't know what Xiao Ping was talking about, and still smiled and waited for Jessica's reply. However, Jessica can understand Chinese, and immediately glanced at Durant and asked in Chinese: "Is that him?"
Seeing that Xiao Ping nodded lightly and gave an affirmative answer, the smile on Jessica's pretty face became even brighter, and her charming eyes turned around Durant, as if she was very interested in him.
Jessica's appearance made Durant happy, and he thought that his charm had impressed Jessica, and he couldn't help but think about which hotel to open tonight.
Just when Durant was secretly proud, Jessica suddenly had a cold face, and slapped him hard with a wave of her hand.
"Smack!" In the hall where everyone was whispering, this crisp voice immediately attracted the attention of many people, and they all looked over here.
Jessica has been taking Xiao Ping's special health oral liquid for close people for a long time, and her physical fitness has been much better than ordinary people. The slap was heavy and brittle, and it made Durant's eyes look like a gold star. He didn't react at all for a while, just glared at Jessica with his hot cheeks, not understanding why he would be slapped like this.
However, Jessica didn't give Durant any chance at all, and immediately grabbed Xiao Ping's arm and complained in a crying voice: "Honey, he ...... He touches me!"
Jessica's words made Xiao Ping's forehead sweat instantly. The American chick is ruthless enough, there are only four people who know the truth of the matter, Xiao Ping, Jessica and Pierre naturally will not tell the truth, and Durant can't even wash it by jumping into the Seine.
As it turned out, many of the guests had just focused their attention on Jessica's complaints. Jessica was already beautiful and moving, but at this time she made a pitiful look, and the little bird leaned on Xiao Ping's side like a human, with a sad expression, which immediately aroused everyone's sympathy.
Many people looked at Durant with a bit of contempt in their eyes, and the ladies made no secret of their disgust. There were also many chefs present, and looking at Durant's gaze was even more weird. They are peers with Durant, and they have long heard of his personality of liking to mess with flowers and grass, so they firmly believe in Jessica's words. A few old and serious chefs were already shaking their heads slightly, deeply regretting that there were such scum in their peers.
At this time, Durant had also come back to his senses, and everyone's eyes made him ashamed and angry, and he couldn't help but glared at Jessica angrily: "You lied, when did I touch you?"
In the face of Durant's questioning, Jessica didn't answer at all, just looked at Xiao Ping pitifully. The American chick is sometimes softer, but it is more effective and sympathetic than a loud defense.
Xiao Ping and Jessica have known each other for so long, and they can understand a little bit of her thoughts, and they looked at Durant cooperatively and sighed: "It's shameless!"
This sentence made others believe Jessica's words even more, and they whispered to each other and blamed Durant.
Durant was also furious in the face of the unfavorable situation, and glared at Jessica angrily: "Jessica Taylor, if you don't make this matter clear today, I won't let you go!"
As soon as Durant's words fell, Ramsey's trademark loud voice rang out at the door: "Who said they wouldn't let my Hell's Kitchen reporter go?!" (To be continued......
