Chapter 43: The Dinner (2)
Li Haoyang, who was their boss, looked around and looked at the five girls who didn't know what was going to happen, and sighed a little helplessly.
The guarantee incident a few days ago made him saddled with a large amount of foreign debts in a daze.
After contacting many friends but few of them were willing to lend him money, he finally relied on Jimmy to solve a desperate need, but that was only part of it.
Tonight, I bothered him to help him save this game, but he really owed a lot of favors.
Since its establishment, the company has been supported by itself.
Before taking on foreign debt, it is acceptable that the portfolio is not profitable, but it is better to have a fixed income to maintain the company's expenses.
But now the situation has changed, and the initial partners have run away, not believing that they have a chance to turn over.
Obviously, he has written so many famous golden songs, why can't he even praise his own group.
But it doesn't matter, they have no future to speak of after losing their protection...
Seeing that the boss was frowning and silent, the five girls couldn't help but get nervous when they thought of some rumors some time ago.
The current situation of the company is clear to everyone, and the atmosphere is gradually becoming depressing.
"Why are you all down, let others see how to do that..."With the encouragement of the captain, the sound of opening the door happened to sound, and several people quickly changed their expressions.
Jimmy pushed the door open and entered the box, Leon following him.
Under Li Haoyang's eyes, the five girls got up and bowed and began to say hello.
"Who's that girl EXID, hello, we're EXID."
Looking at the five tall girls in front of him, Li Ang glanced at Jimmy with some confusion, not knowing what this kid was going to do.
"My name is Li Haoyang when we first met, and they are the only girl group project in our company at present." Li Haoyang enthusiastically stepped forward to shake hands with Li Ang and briefly introduced himself.
When he was seated, Li Ang sat on the left hand side in advance, and deliberately left the position sandwiched between Li Haoyang to Jimmy.
It seems that this kid's purpose of pulling himself out to eat today is not pure, and he specially prepared this one.
"What do you drink Leon Xi, there are red and white wines here, and..."
Li Ang interrupted him with his mouth, "Keep it simple, just drink soju, I don't pick too much." After saying that, Leon didn't speak again.
Seeing that the protagonist was coming, Li Haoyang beckoned the waiter to prepare to serve the food.
In order to prevent the cold scene, Jimmy took the initiative to talk to Li Haoyang, and the two chatted without a word.
An Xiyan, who was sitting on the left side of Li Ang, took the initiative to pour a cup of tea and handed it to Li Ang beside him under a secret hint from the captain.
Taking the cup, Li Ang politely thanked him.
While the waiter was serving, the five girls all looked at Li Ang secretly.
Several people didn't expect that the person invited by the boss today was him, let alone meeting in private, and even sitting in a box to eat at this moment felt like a joke, so unrealistic.
But fortunately, the barbecue restaurants on the peninsula are one of the few that Leon likes. There is no need to specifically hint that Xu Shuzhi and An Xiyan took the initiative to contract the barbecue work.
An Xiyan filled the wine glass for Li Ang, and Xu Shuzhi, who was on the other side of the seat, asked with a smile: "Senior, can you eat spicy?" ”
"I can do it all."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Haoyang coughed lightly and raised his wine glass to toast Li Ang.
"The first time we met today, I don't know how to talk much, if there is something offended, I hope Leon Xi doesn't mind."
After the three of them clinked glasses, Li Haoyang directly raised his head and drank it all.
Seeing that he was so crisp, Li Ang didn't say anything, and he raised his head and drank all the wine in the cup, and the five girls also began to set off the atmosphere in due time.
This made Leon think that something might be a little wrong tonight, and it felt like Jimmy's smile on himself was so meaningful, and with the dozen soju on the table, things seemed to be not so simple.
"Just call me Li Ang, my mother is Chinese, and she gave me a Chinese name." Before Li Haoyang spoke, Li Ang took the lead in speaking.
"Inside, how does Li Angxi feel about living on the peninsula, and do you plan to live here for a long time in the future?"
"It depends on the situation, after all, no one can say for sure what will happen in the future."
This is the first formal conversation between the two tonight.
During the day, Jimmy's disorganized appearance made it clear that he didn't know what to do at night.
The night was long, and seeing Li Haoyang's posture, he was ready to pour himself into the air and talk about things again.
Then he really underestimated himself.
……
Halfway through the meal, Li Ang was very comfortable eating and drinking, but the rotation of drinking made him a little unbearable. Even if he drank well, he was still a little blindsided.
Under the pretext of going to the bathroom, leave the box to relieve yourself.
After Leon left the box, a short time passed.
Jimmy looked at Li Haoyang, who was already obviously a little overhead, and complained: "I helped you make an appointment with my boss today, but your amount of alcohol is a little worrying." I'll give you a thorough explanation, I haven't seen him drunk yet. ”
Li Haoyang patted Xu Shuzhi beside him under the table without a trace, and replied a little embarrassed: "Although it is a bit exaggerated, these four people can't drink one person, and it is indeed a little unbearable." ”
Seeing this, Xu Shuzhi bit his lip with some hesitation, and did a struggle of thoughts in his heart, but finally chose to compromise and got up to prepare to go out.
"Ernie, I'll go." After speaking, An Xiyan took the mobile phone on the table and got up and left the box, walking in the direction of the bathroom.
After waiting at the door of the bathroom for a while, he didn't find Li Ang's figure, and just as he was about to go to the door to take a look, he heard the familiar voice coming out of the safe passage on the side.
An Xiyan pushed open the hidden door, "Senior..."As soon as he spoke, before he finished speaking, Li Ang reached out and covered his mouth, and a strong smell of tobacco hit, and the cigarette smoke between his fingertips was a little uncomfortable.
Seeing that he motioned to keep himself silent, he nodded sensibly, and closed the door that had just been opened carefully.
"I just arranged for my subordinates to do it, why do you have to let me go back again."
"I don't want to go back for a while, let's talk about it later..."
"Well, bye-bye." Leon let out a long breath and hung up the phone.
Smoking silently, An Xiyan, who was standing on the side, had a slightly awkward atmosphere.
"I..."
"You..."
The two men spoke at the same time, then abruptly stopped, and the quiet stairwell suddenly became even more awkward.
In the end, it was Li Ang who took the lead in breaking the deadlock, and asked with some curiosity: "Do you usually participate in this kind of dinner?" ”
"Not really, at most we will participate in some small commercial performances or something." Seeing that Li Ang had some misunderstandings, he explained to him.
"It's me who lost my word." Throwing the cigarette butt on the ground and stepping on it, he smiled at her a little embarrassedly, "Let's go back together, it's been a while since we came out." ”
The two returned to the box one after the other, and Li Ang, who had gone out to rest for a while, had already eased up, and the drinking party continued.
Compared with the beginning, everyone's alcohol strength came up and they all opened the chatterbox, and Li Ang listened with great interest to the five girls chatting about the hot topic.
Until the wine on the table was almost drunk, Li Haoyang saw that the atmosphere was already hot, so he arranged the next one in advance.
