Chapter 209: A subtle sense of familiarity
Wu Mei lifted her leg and stepped on the drunk guest’s chest. She stopped a stunned waiter and poured several cups of champagne onto the guest’s face.
The drunk guest choked and coughed violently. Wu Mei said with a cold expression, “Since you like to drink alcohol, I’ll let you drink your fill.”
“Remember, if you dare to harass and offend other women again, I’ll hit you every time I see you!”
Wu Mei returned the empty wine glass to the waiter and wiped her fingers in disgust.
The drunk guest felt humiliated. He stood up and pointed at Wu Mei as he berated her, “Do you know who I am? I want you to kneel down and apologize to me!”
From afar, Li Nanchen noticed that something was amiss. He strode over to Wu Mei’s side and wrapped his arm around her shoulder as he lowered his head to ask, “Are you alright?”
Wu Mei shook her head and gestured to Li Nanchen with her lips. “You should ask him. He said that he wants to cause trouble for me. Are you going to step in?”
When the drunk guest saw Li Nanchen, the last bit of drunkenness in his body completely sobered up. He was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his back. He hurriedly bowed at a right angle and apologized, “President Li, I didn’t mean to offend your female companion. I was the one who did something wrong. Please don’t…”
Staring at him coldly, Li Nanchen recalled that he seemed to be the CEO of a certain corporation and had some background.
“Since you did something wrong, you have to pay the price.”
“You wanted her to kneel down and apologize just now? Do you want me to do it on her behalf?”
As soon as Li Nanchen finished speaking, the drunk guest’s legs turned to jelly from fear. He shook his head furiously, unable to utter a single word.
“From today onwards, the Li Corporation will cancel all collaborations with your corporation. From now on, there will be no dealings between us!”
“If an unfinished project collaboration is involved, the Li Corporation will pay the penalty fee according to the contract as compensation.”
After Li Nanchen finished speaking, all the guests present were stunned. This meant that this company would be blacklisted from now on. No well-known company in this city would dare to go against Li Nanchen and take the risk to cooperate with them.
This bit of compensation should be the company’s final income…
The drunk guest begged for mercy, but Li Nanchen acted like he did not hear him. He looked at the organizers, who were looking on, and said, “Looks like your company’s security is very lax. Do we have to keep someone like him, who has lost his morals after drinking, here to affect everyone’s mood?”
The organizers snapped out of it and urged the security guards to drag the drunk guest out.
The boisterous venue instantly fell silent. The surrounding onlookers all said to Li Nanchen, “President Li, don’t worry.”
“We’ll terminate our cooperation with such an immoral company when we get back!”
“That’s right. Having a rat like him in the financial industry will ruin our reputation. You dealt with him fantastically well!”
Listening to the compliments around them, Wu Mei suddenly felt a scorching gaze on her from behind.
With keen senses, she turned her head to look around and her gaze landed on an extremely exotic and beautiful woman. Wu Mei felt a sense of familiarity from her, but this was the first time she had seen this face. Feeling that something was amiss, Wu Mei tugged on the corner of Li Nanchen’s shirt and prompted, “Who is that? Do you know her?”
Li Nanchen looked over and shook his head as he said, “It should be the new lover of some corporation’s President who brought her out to keep up appearances.”
“If you think something is amiss, I’ll send someone to investigate her identity.”
For some reason, Wu Mei felt an inexplicable panic. Frowning, she nodded and said, “Try to be more thorough.”
