Chapter 943: Chapter 941: These People
At this point, Mu Yeli had already sat down next to Ye Ning.
He smiled at Ye Ning, then said to everyone, "Thank you all for coming."
Jiang Yubai, ever the chatterbox, continued, "Of course, our Ye Ning is on fire, a celebration is a must. This is just the beginning; you’ll definitely become even more famous and reach diva status."
Ye Ning looked at him, "Alright, enough. Don’t jinx it for me. You said it yourself, it’s just the beginning. I don’t want to attract any hate yet."
Ouyang said, "It’s not really attracting hate; you’re indeed everywhere. I’ve been seeing you online and on TV all the time. Congratulations, congratulations, you’re a big hit now."
Ye Ning could only reply, "Alright, then I’ll thank everyone for the congratulations too."
Mu Yeli looked at He Yahui, "And thanks to everyone for their hard work."
He Yahui dared not take credit, "You’re too kind, Mr. Mu. It’s my duty; it’s what I should do."
"But for Ye Ning to succeed so smoothly, you have all worked hard too."
"Thank you, thank you for your recognition, Mr. Mu."
He Yahui said earnestly.
Si Wenyu stood by, seeming unable to say anything as he watched.
Today, they were all here to widen their horizons in awe, and now they got to see how these people interacted.
Jiang Yubai had people bring out wine and dishes; everyone ate together while Jiang Yubai continued to praise Ye Ning.
"Ye Ning’s achievements today have some of my contributions too."
Ye Ning said, "What contribution?"
"I played games with you!"
"You mean the times when I played games with you, how you messed up and got yourself killed pitifully, and I had to save you, and in the end, you won with zero kills?"
"Get lost."
On the side, Ouyang curiously asked, "What does ’eat chicken’ mean?"
Jiang Yubai said, "You’re so out of date. It’s just a game. The last one standing wins, and they ’eat chicken.’ Good luck and victory, eat chicken tonight."
Ouyang looked at Ye Ning, "You’re so good at games too."
Jiang Yubai said, "Exactly, what could possibly be difficult for our Ye Ning."
Ye Ning gave him a pat, "Stop with the flattery here."
Mu Yeli watched the two of them with a smile, appearing quite calm and relaxed.
Seeing Ye Ning getting along so well with them made Mu Yeli very at ease.
Ye Ning said, "By the way, how’s that blind date of yours going?"
Just as she said this, Gu Xingzhi almost spat out his drink.
Everyone turned to look at Gu Xingzhi.
Jiang Yubai brought it up, feeling even more frustrated, "Seriously, how can you even bring this up, Gu Xingzhi? Don’t you know you shouldn’t mess with a friend’s partner?"
Ye Ning looked on curiously, having no idea what they meant.
Jiang Yubai complained bitterly, "That Lun Yuxi, she’s been taken away by him, boo hoo."
Gu Xingzhi said, "What’s it got to do with me... I didn’t want her following me around."
Jiang Yubai said, "How is it not related to you? Tell me, what kind of sorcery did you do to make her so head-over-heels for you?"
Gu Xingzhi shrugged, "I really didn’t do anything. If you want her, go ahead and take her."
He looked completely fed up with Lun Yuxi, clearly not wanting her around anymore.
Jiang Yubai got even more annoyed, "I’d love to; you make her bother me, come on, come on."
Ye Ning said, "This is really bizarre."
Jiang Yubai said, "You have no idea. She was supposed to be my blind date, and now, goodness, it’s all ’Xingzhi brother, Xingzhi brother,’ following Gu Xingzhi and not even giving me a glance."
