Chapter 2335: Chapter 2150: Yellow Jacket (Part 5)
Then President Li turned his head, holding a toothpick in his mouth, looking at Lu Yaobing with a pure and innocent expression.
But the corners of President Li’s mouth couldn’t help but rise.
Lu Yaobing’s brain started to run quickly, thinking about how she could escape the situation.
Just as Lu Yaobing was at a loss and about to lose her temper, her phone rang.
Lu Yaobing picked it up; it was a number she didn’t recognize.
"Sorry, I need to take a call!" Lu Yaobing said, grabbing the phone and walking out.
"Hey? Don’t run away now!" Wang Fang called out from behind Lu Yaobing.
"Sorry about that!"
Lu Yaobing escaped, took a deep breath, and answered the call.
"Hello? Is this Miss Lu?" said a female voice on the other end.
"Yes, who is this?" Lu Yaobing asked.
"I’m someone by Miss Chu Xianling’s side, my name is Zhang Yanran. Miss Chu told me about what happened at the Chinese herbal medicine wholesale market today and scolded me quite a bit. Miss, where are you now? I’ll come over to discuss buying the herbal medicine with you." Zhang Yanran’s tone was very urgent.
"Oh... Sister Zhang, I’m out right now, can we meet tomorrow?" Lu Yaobing asked.
"Miss Lu, Miss Chu is really very angry about this. I think it’s best to resolve it today rather than delay till tomorrow, it won’t take much time. Let’s meet and discuss it; just tell me your address and I’ll come find you." Zhang Yanran said to Lu Yaobing.
"Alright, I’m at **** KTV right now."
"Okay, I’ll be there soon." Zhang Yanran replied.
"Mm."
When Lu Yaobing returned, President Li and the others had already played a few rounds of their game and drank many bottles of alcohol. They were almost finished with the beer cases.
President Li, Zhang Yanhong, Wang Fang, and Zhao Wenyu were all drunkenly bleary-eyed.
Zhang Yanhong and President Li drank the most, as Zhang Yanhong kept toasting to President Li to curry favor with him.
President Li was completely drunk, holding a glass of wine. When he saw Lu Yaobing come in, he raised the glass, swaying as he said to her: "Little Lu, you’re really something. We’ve known each other for a while, and you haven’t even had a drink with me. Do you look down on me? Are you disrespecting me? Do you know who I am? I’m President Li of Minghe. Even Deputy Mayor Han is courteous to me. In all of Minghe, who doesn’t bow to me? Today I’ve given you enough face because I see you’re young and a bit pretty, a college student with some knowledge, so I didn’t bother with you. But let me tell you, if it were someone else, and they didn’t drink with me at the table, I’d make sure they couldn’t stay in Minghe anymore!"
Zhang Yanhong, also drunk, holding a glass of wine, said to Lu Yaobing: "Didn’t you hear? I’m advising you to toast to President Li for your own good. President Li is really a big shot in Minghe. Even though you’re a medical student and President Li is in finance, he’s rich. Who knows when you might need something from him? But you’re so cold towards him, you really don’t know how to navigate the ways of society at all! Building connections relies on these little paths at the drinking table."
Equally drunk, Wang Fang also held a glass of wine, swaying as she said to Lu Yaobing: "Here, this is for you. Toast to President Li, you need to learn how to drink and socialize."
"Sorry, I already said, I don’t drink." Lu Yaobing still said coldly to the four of them.
"What’s wrong with you? Are you stubborn? Today, I’m going to make you drink. I want to see if you’ll die from drinking!" President Li, in a fit of temper, grabbed Lu Yaobing’s arm, pulling her in front of him, and took a glass of wine with his other hand, bringing it to her lips.
"Ah!" Lu Yaobing let out a shriek, raising both hands to block the glass that President Li was bringing to her mouth.
"I can’t stand you young people, so immature and arrogant. You said you don’t drink, well I want to see what happens when you do!" President Li was already drunk and started acting out, grabbing Lu Yaobing’s chin with one hand, causing her to mumble unclearly, and with the other hand trying to pour a full glass of wine into her mouth.
"I won’t drink!" Lu Yaobing snapped, struggling fiercely, using all her strength to push the glass aside, spilling the wine all over President Li and Zhang Yanhong.
Seeing Lu Yaobing struggle desperately, President Li finally regained some composure, somewhat sobering up.
"What are you doing! Look at the mess you’ve made!" Zhang Yanhong, covered in beer, suddenly got angry, stood up and looked at her wet clothes, glaring at Lu Yaobing.
Chapter 2154 I’ll Buy You a New One
Lu Yaobing’s patience had reached its limit. Hearing Zhang Yanhong say this, thinking of her scratched watch face and Zhang Yanhong’s snide remarks throughout the day, she finally decided to not endure it any longer. She slammed the glass coffee table and stood up, shouting at Zhang Yanhong: "Why are you yelling at me? So your clothes are wet, I’ll buy you new ones! I’ll compensate you!"
