Chapter 295 Banquet
However, Chen Yimin was quite curious as to why the richest man in Beijing did not stay in Beijing but came here.
You know, people in this city are all trying their best to go to the capital.
Chen Yimin shook the wine glass and just smelled it, his eyes fell on Yang Ke. What was the purpose of the Yang family, the richest family in Beijing, coming here?
After sniffing the wine in the glass, Chen Yimin put it down. Liu Qingye was called by several bigwigs from real estate companies. The Liu family was in a good momentum recently, and many people wanted to win her over.
Ye Lu also came this time. She saw Chen Yimin early and had always wanted to come over to say hello, but she never found an opportunity.
Ye Lu's father was called over by some colleagues to talk. Ye Cheng was afraid that she would be bored, so he simply let her go and play by herself.
Anyway, this is the Yang family's plan, so I believe no one would dare to do anything bad.
Ye Lu held the wine glass and approached Chen Yimin. She had dressed up specially today and smiled at Chen Yimin generously: "Why are you here too?"
Ye Lu only thought that Chen Yimin was a small boss of a company, but she didn't expect that he could get an invitation letter here. Those invited by Mr. Yang were all very powerful upstarts.
Chen Yimin smiled and said, "It was you who was brought here by a friend..."
The mayor's family would actually attend this kind of banquet?
"My father has some friendship with Mr. Yang, so I came here specially to attend Mr. Yang's party." Ye Lu didn't say much, just two sentences, and when she saw her familiar sisters again, she left quietly.
Chen Yimin understood, and after she left, he looked at Mr. Yang who was sitting in the main seat with complicated eyes.
Mr. Yang praised Chen Yimin highly, which made Yang Ke, who had always been arrogant, somewhat dissatisfied. He glanced at Chen Yimin from time to time during the banquet.
Seeing that he basically stayed alone and never made friends with the powerful, I became even more curious about him.
After all, to put it bluntly, this kind of dinner is for making connections. As a businessman, more friends means more options.
But Chen Yimin just watched and didn't make any connections.
For a moment, Yang Ke was a little confused. Was he pretending to be noble, or was he already powerful enough to not need to make connections?
After turning away several people who came forward to curry his favor, Yang Ke quietly went to Chen Yimin's side under the pretext of going to the toilet.
"Hello." Yang Ke greeted him in a low voice.
Chen Yimin looked at him expressionlessly. He was not as excited as Yang Ke had imagined. There was not even the slightest ripple on his face.
"Hello, Mr. Yang."
Since he knew his identity, why was he so cold to him? Yang Ke was used to seeing people trying to curry favor with him, but this was the first time he saw someone who was so indifferent to him, and he became interested in him, which was rare.
Yang Ke asked, "I just arrived here recently and am still unfamiliar with the place. I want to invest in a few projects. What does Mr. Chen do?"
Chen Yimin's project didn't seem to require any investment. He felt a little regretful. If it had been a while ago, he might have gladly accepted it.
But now, Xiachen Jewelry is just waiting to make a profit. The designer and the engraver don't need any money. They just bought a shop in the early stage. It seems that there is nothing else they need.
The entertainment venue was also under construction, and everything was going smoothly for the Qitian Brewing Group, so there was no shortage of money at all.
Besides, after getting the 5 billion from the Green family, he is no longer short of money.
"I'm just doing some small business to support my family." Chen Yimin said lightly and decided to recommend Gu Zhongyu's company to him.
"But I can recommend a few companies with good momentum to you, Mr. Yang. You can invest in them."
With Yang Ke joining, Gu Zhongyu’s company should be able to recruit a few more talented new people for its electronic products.
After all, the example of Yang Aiguo is still there.
Yang Ke didn't find out about his company and thought he was just pretending to be noble, so he declined politely and left with a little disappointment.
Chen Yimin was a little confused about Yang Ke's disappointment and touched his chin thoughtfully.
Chatting with a few young ladies and drinking a few sips of red wine from time to time, Ye Lu drank quite a bit. With flushed cheeks and squinting eyes, she walked to the toilet.
The toilet is a bit remote and there are not many people here.
Ye Lu stood in front of the sink and washed her face with cold water. Only then did she feel sober. She took out some cosmetics from her handbag and touched up her makeup in front of the mirror.
A slightly drunk man walked out of the men's restroom. Li Qingxiang straightened his suit. He didn't expect to meet Ye Cheng's daughter, Ye Lu, here!
He held his head high and extended his hand to her: "Hello, Miss Ye, I am Li Qingxiang, I have heard of your name for a long time."
Ye Lu was applying lipstick. She just glanced at him and slowly put the lipstick away. She had no intention of shaking hands with him.
He had just come out of the bathroom and didn't even wash his hands. How could I possibly shake hands with him?
Ye Lu just nodded: "Nice to meet you." Then, she turned around and left gracefully.
As a member of the third branch of the Li family, Li Qingxiang had always been bullied and looked down upon before he was appreciated by the head of the family.
Now that he is rich, he hates people who look down on him the most.
Li Qingxiang took back his hand and looked at Ye Lu with a mocking look on his face. What are you pretending for? If it weren't for Ye Cheng's sake, who would be willing to say hello to her?
Thinking of Ye Lu's disregard for him, he felt even more resentful.
When he takes over the Li family in the future, let’s see how he deals with them.
Li Qingxiang quickly put away his expression and put on a gentle smile on his face again, as if the distorted look just now was just an illusion .
At about nine o'clock, the dance began.
As the music started, Yang Ke entered the venue with his partner, Ye Lu. This was something that Yang Lao had agreed with Ye Cheng before, and this meeting between the two also had a hint of a blind date.
But neither of them had much interest, so after the opening dance, they stood aside. After Liu Qingye finished chatting with others, she returned to Chen Yimin.
"How about dancing together?"
Chen Yimin extended his hand, "My pleasure."
Chen Yimin held her hand. Although it was their first time dancing, they had a very good understanding of each other. Liu Qingye's long skirt spread out, like a beautiful flower.
When Zhang Xuzhi saw Chen Yimin, he couldn't stop the hatred in his eyes. It was because of this person that he lost face in the upper class society.
He exerted a little force with his palm and held Qi Yuxin's palm, "Let's dance too."
Following the rhythm of the music, the two entered the dance floor together. Zhang Huadong stood by and watched, with a faint mocking smile on his face.
Zhang Xuzhi brought Qi Yuxin to Chen Yimin's side. The rhythm of the two was also very good. They must have cooperated with each other many times.
