Volume 8 Final Chapter Chapter 1158 Wedding Wine and Car Crash
Nan Yi had never seen Meng Chu before, but he had heard of him.
In 2003, "Yuppie" magazine organized a "Yuppie Celebrity Charity Night". It started as a small event, but became a big deal last year. Dozens of celebrities participated, as well as some businessmen with ties to the fashion and entertainment circles, with a total of more than 100 people. For a while, various print media and online news platforms were filled with news about the charity night.
However, he just read a few reports as gossip and was not very clear about the details.
"Mr. Nan, you are too kind."
Meng Chu had never met Nan Yi before. She had only heard about the "apprenticeship ceremony" from other people and also seen the photos taken on the spot on the other party's mobile phone. Only then did she know that there was such a person in the entertainment industry. She was able to recognize Nan Yi only after meeting him in person.
"But, not at all. Does Editor-in-Chief Meng have some important secrets to discuss with Boss Niu? If so, I can try harder in the toilet and squeeze out a few drops." Nan Yi said half-jokingly.
Meng Chu said charmingly: "Hey, Master Nan, Boss Niu and I didn't discuss any secrets. I just wanted to invite him to participate in this year's Yuppie Star Charity Night."
As soon as Meng Chu said this, Nan Yi immediately made a judgment in his mind. Behind the excitement of the Yuppie Star Charity Night last year, the woman in front of him must have put in a lot of effort, and she was probably at a disadvantage compared to the group of stars participating in the charity night.
In short, the charity night of hipster celebrities probably didn't become a big deal, otherwise they wouldn't have invited Niu He, an amateur who has some money and some fame in the catering industry but has nothing to do with the entertainment and fashion circles.
It doesn't seem right. Niu He is already involved with the female editor-in-chief of the fashion circle. What a jerk.
"Editor-in-Chief Meng, you have invited the right person, Boss Niu. He is a veteran in the charity world. From Hong Kong to Beijing, whenever he sees a beautiful girl who can't afford a brand name bag, he will donate generously, three bags at a time."
"Really?" Hearing this, Meng Chu stood up from his chair, walked to Niu He's side, sat on Niu He's thighs, and said to Niu He coquettishly, "Boss Niu, will you accept my invitation?"
Niu He didn't expect Meng Chu to use this trick. If Nan Yi was not there, this matter would be easier to handle, but since he was there, it would be difficult to handle. He could only look at Nan Yi awkwardly with a trace of helplessness on his face.
Nan Yi did not expect that this woman Meng Chu would do this. It was actually quite clever. As long as Niu He did not transform into a wolf and did not act like a domineering king, Meng Chu could deal with any reaction Niu He made calmly.
"Boss Niu, you have a beautiful woman in your arms, why don't you drink a cup of wedding wine?"
When Meng Chu saw Nan Yi handing him the ladder, he quickly climbed up, poured two glasses of wine, and handed one to Niu He, "Boss Niu, let's drink from each other's cups."
"Okay, let's drink from the cup."
Because they were sitting on each other's thighs, the posture of the two people drinking the wedding wine was a bit awkward and a little ambiguous.
After a glass of wine, Meng Chu brought up the past in a coquettish manner, "Boss Niu, you must attend this year's charity night."
"Okay, I'll join in."
When Meng Chu saw Niu He agreed, he stood up from his lap and did not jump onto Nan Yi's lap. Instead, he returned to his previous seat, refilled his glass with wine, raised his glass and said to Nan Yi: "Master Nan, I'm inviting you. Will you accept it?"
"Editor-in-Chief Meng, I am very happy to agree to your request, but my status is not suitable." Nan Yi stood up with the cup in hand, "Let's drink a cup of wine together. After we finish drinking, I will introduce two people with sufficient status to Editor-in-Chief Meng, and give you a few little stars as a bonus."
Hearing this, Editor-in-Chief Meng walked towards Nan Yi with a charming smile on her face, "Master Nan, can I not give you a bonus?"
"No, how can Editor-in-Chief Meng not accept my pure heart?" Nan Yi said, his hand holding the glass entwined with Meng Chu's, and his other hand reached out to her back, holding her and bringing the glass to her lips.
"This deal is a bit of a loss." Meng Chu complained in his heart and also put the cup to his lips.
"Editor-in-Chief Meng, you have a good alcohol tolerance. Women are as good as men. I can't do that. I have always had a low alcohol tolerance. I need to eat some food to slow down."
As he said that, Nan Yi put away his cup, sat back in his seat, picked up his chopsticks and picked up some food.
Meng Chu had achieved his goal. He stayed for a while, said a few polite words, and then made an excuse to go back to his private room.
As soon as she left, Nan Yi asked Niu He, "How do you know her?"
"I met him at a dinner party."
Nan Yi nodded, "If you still insist on bringing in capital, you can consider participating in charity nights. It's easier to hype up the industry by associating yourself with celebrities. Steve Jobs' marketing idea of bundling people and products is pretty good. You can study it."
Niu He seemed to be deep in thought. He was touched by what Nan Yi had said about the disadvantages of introducing capital, but he was not willing to accept it. In his heart, he was a person who advocated both fame and fortune. In addition to pursuing interests, he also pursued reputation.
What choice Niu He will make is his own business. Nan Yi has already given his sincere advice. If he puts himself in his shoes, he will not consider introducing capital. Duanjinlou cannot be standardized, unlike Wandefu which can expand rapidly and is easy to manage. The probability of a win-win situation is too low, and the biggest possibility is falling into the abyss.
After finishing their meal, Nan Yi and Miao Xiaolan went down to the underground parking lot. When they were still more than 20 meters away from the parking space, they saw a car starting up in the parking space opposite. The wheels rolled without changing direction and crashed directly into the front of Nan Yi's car.
"ah!"
There was a woman's scream, the car backed up, and then, with a bang, it crashed forward again.
"ah……"
There was another scream, the woman's hands left the steering wheel, and the two cars were face to face.
"Hold!"
Nan Yi couldn't help but blurt out. In his two lifetimes as a human being, he had been driving and riding in cars for nearly sixty years. He had never hit other people's cars, nor had he been hit by anyone else. It was almost sixty years since he had lived, but he didn't expect to be buried here.
Miao Xiaolan, however, always kept her duties in mind. She looked around vigilantly and didn't find anything wrong. Then she walked to the car and knocked on the glass. As soon as the glass fell, she reached in and pulled out the car key, then took her hand back.
She was not afraid that the female driver would run away, but she was afraid that the other party would be in a panic and hit her again.
Smelling the alcohol, Miao Xiaolan frowned, glanced at the female driver who couldn't hide her panic even with her sunglasses on, and said expressionlessly: "Get out of the car and sober up."
Then she walked to the front of the car and checked the damage.
My car was fine, except that the glass of the headlight was broken and the paint on the front of the car was scratched a little. The female driver's car was not in such good condition, the front of the car was dented inward, and it needed sheet metal processing and a lot of parts had to be replaced.
After confirming the condition of the car, Miao Xiaolan came to the female driver who had already gotten out of the car and said, "The paint job is 4,000, and the headlights are 15,000. This is the price for a private settlement. If it's a public settlement, I'll call you now."
When the female driver heard the price of the headlights, she was immediately furious. "What? Headlights cost 15,000 yuan , why don't you just go and buy one?"
Seeing the other party's reaction, Miao Xiaolan didn't waste any words and just picked up the phone and pressed 122.
Seeing this, the woman rushed forward to grab Miao Xiaolan's phone, begging for mercy: "No, don't call the police, we can discuss it, let's talk about it later."
Miao Xiaolan put her hands behind her back and said, "I think it's better to make it public, so you don't have to be accused of blackmailing you."
"Private settlement, private settlement , no traffic police, no insurance. But, what kind of headlights are worth 15,000?"
After listening for a while, Nan Yi felt that the woman's voice sounded familiar. He looked at her figure and made some guesses, so he shouted to Miao Xiaolan, "Xiaolan, take off her sunglasses."
Without waiting for the female driver to step back after hearing what she said, Miao Xiaolan had already quickly taken off her sunglasses. Nan Yi glanced at her face and, as he guessed, the female driver was really Liu Andi, a female star who was not very famous nowadays. If nothing was wrong, in a few years, she would become very famous with her image as a good daughter-in-law.
"Xiao Lan, move her car away."
Nan Yi was talking when he came to the car. He watched Miao Xiaolan get in and move the car. When his license plate was revealed, he pointed at it and said to Liu Andy, "Remember the license plate. I'll send you the bill when the car is repaired."
"Do you think I'm stupid? Just go and fix it yourself, who knows..."
Before Liu Andy could finish his words, Nan Yi ridiculed him, "You are not very smart. If you were smart, you wouldn't have crashed into my car. If you were smart, you wouldn't have kept nagging me here. I don't dare to do it publicly, and I think it's too expensive to do it privately.
I know you're a celebrity, so I'll give you some privacy, but you still don't appreciate my kindness. Let me ask you again, should we settle it publicly or privately? "
"It's too expensive to settle it privately." Liu Andy drank too much and was a little drunk. He was confused and unable to think clearly, but he was much braver.
