Chapter 9
Faced with Manager Wang’s question, Su Yurou inadvertently felt a little guilty. She held Xu Wenping’s arm tightly, and only when she felt Xu Wenping’s big hand gently grip her did Su Yurou feel a little more at ease.
Xu Wenping was not surprised. He handed the invitation card to Manager Wang and said, “Then I’ll have to trouble Manager Wang to check it out!”
After all, Manager Wang was also an important person at tonight’s banquet. Therefore, he blocked Xu Wenping at the door and immediately attracted the attention of many people inside.
Perhaps Manager Wang didn’t take Xu Wenping seriously, and the provocation in his eyes didn’t stop. The people in the room naturally noticed it immediately and subconsciously looked at Xu Wenping. This was their stepping stone to please Manager Wang tonight.
Manager Wang took the invitation and opened it. He wanted to tear it off, but when he touched the mark on the lower right corner, his mocking gaze froze and his brows furrowed slightly.
“Tsk, tsk… These b*stards below are really unreliable. You really took advantage of the loophole and got an invitation card, right?”
“That’s good. If you don’t come in, I really can’t think of how to deal with you.”
“Please.”
Su Yurou heaved a sigh of relief, and Xu Wenping wore a calm smile on his face. He nodded lightly and said, “Thank you for your concern, Manager Wang!”
The two of them entered the venue. Manager Wang frowned and waved his hand to summon his lackey. He gritted his teeth and said, “Go down and ask Mr. Zhao. D*mn it, without my permission, how can he send invitations to all the cats and dogs?”
“If you can’t give me a suitable reason, then fire him!”
“Yes… Yes… Manager Wang,” the lackey quickly acknowledged.
The two of them entered the venue. After all, the banquet hadn’t started yet. The people around the hall were all toasting. When Su Yurou walked past a woman, she smiled and was about to greet her, but the woman smiled lightly and turned her face away.
Su Yurou leaned helplessly into Xu Wenping’s ear and said, “The people sitting here are basically all big businessmen who distribute skincare and cosmetics in Jin Hai City. That lady just now has some cooperation with me… Look, she didn’t even say anything when she saw that Manager Wang didn’t look good to us.”
Then, she leaned on Xu Wenping’s shoulder and whispered, “Wenping, Manager Wang won’t let this go. Let’s try to sit at the back and not let him find trouble.”
“What about the cooperation?” Xu Wenping raised his eyebrows.
Su Yurou was slightly stunned, and a helpless look flashed in her eyes. Then, she smiled lightly and said, “It’s fine. Without the Imperial Corporation, won’t I still be able to live?”
As the two of them were talking, Manager Wang strode over and greeted the people nearby. He pointed at Su Yurou and said, “Everyone, I’m sure everyone is familiar with President Su? President Su has a lot of potential in this distribution tender. Let me propose a toast to President Su.”
She wanted to dodge back, but she didn’t expect Manager Wang to take the initiative to rush up. As he toasted, he generously wanted to hug Su Yurou’s waist and glared at Xu Wenping coldly, wanting to declare his sovereignty.
When he toasted all the way here just now, all the women leaned closer to Manager Wang, showing that they were very easy to talk to.
Manager Wang’s eyes were cold. It was as if he was saying, ‘Kid, since you dare to come, I’ll let you see what it means to be on my home ground.’ What did he mean by not letting him even dare to say a word when he touched his girlfriend?
Just as Su Yurou was about to dodge, Xu Wenping fearlessly went up to meet her. Manager Wang’s large hand hooked over, but he didn’t expect to meet Xu Wenping’s heavy palm.
“Manager Wang, I’ll drink this glass of wine on behalf of my wife!”
Xu Wenping drank it all.
Manager Wang looked surprised, but then he smiled playfully. Before he could say anything, there were sounds from the side.
“Where did this kid come from? Don’t you know the rules? Manager Wang, if you want to propose a toast, who are you to stop it?”
“President Su… When did she get together with such a gigolo who doesn’t know the rules? How embarrassing… You actually dared to bring it here.”
“That’s right, that’s right. Manager Wang is in charge of the distribution of Imperial Beauty. Aren’t you afraid of missing an opportunity by bringing such a fellow here?”
“Don’t embarrass yourself. Hurry up and get lost!”
The people who wanted to please Manager Wang scolded him one after another. Manager Wang only raised the wine glass in his hand playfully. When everyone was done scolding, he gently patted Xu Wenping’s shoulder and said, “Young man, I’m afraid you’re still a little lacking in cultivation to go against me.”
Then, his gaze passed Xu Wenping and looked at Su Yurou. He smiled and said, “President Su, don’t blame me for being nosy. Although you have been operating in Jin Hai City for a long time, you know that your products will soon be replaced, right?”
“If you don’t cooperate with our Imperial Corporation… How long do you think you can last?”
“It’s fine if you go bankrupt, but do you think you’ll be heavily in debt? When you’re heavily in debt, will your pretty boy still be willing to follow you?”
Manager Wang guided her patiently. Then, he opened his arms and smiled. “Now, sit back down and have a drink with me. I think we can still discuss our matters!”
Su Yurou’s face turned green and white.
Just as Manager Wang had said, the Imperial Corporation’s project this time, to Su Yurou, was indeed very important. Even if it wasn’t as serious as what Manager Wang had said, it would still be very difficult for her to bear.
But at this moment, she was determined not to take a step forward.
“Hahaha…”
At this moment, Xu Wenping’s throat was in an uproar. He let out a cold laugh and stared at Manager Wang. He said in a deep voice, “Manager Wang… Forgive me, but have you forgotten? There’s a deputy in front of your manager!”
“You’re just a mere deputy manager. Can you really secure this cooperation?”
Manager Wang was slightly stunned, but then he burst out laughing.
“Kid, you’re really a newborn calf that’s not afraid of tigers. Do you know how big the Imperial Corporation is? Just Imperial Beauty alone has dozens of projects every day. Manager Wang’s power is much greater than you could imagine.”
“Deputy manager… If you can become a cleaner at the Imperial Corporation, I’ll toast you today!”
The people below were noisy again.
Xu Wenping’s expression was calm. He held Su Yurou’s hand with one hand and said to Deputy Manager Wang with a calm gaze, “Since you’re so sure, let’s make a bet, shall we?”
“Deputy Manager Wang, I bet that the Imperial Corporation’s partner this time will only be my wife, Su Yurou!”
“Do you dare to bet?”
