Chapter 33 Are you afraid that I will eat you?
Chapter 33 Are you afraid that I will eat you?
Not only Jiang Yu, but even Mrs. Huo from Fuming Group secretly took a breath.
Sometimes appearing in the same social occasion with someone does not mean that you really have the ability to deal with him. In many cases, there is no need to introduce big shots in too much detail, because everyone knows that ordinary people do not have the courage to approach them.
This kind of social relationship that cannot be mutually beneficial is a burden to them to a large extent.
Zhao Manzhi was confused. Chen Muchuan is a person who can get along with everyone. It is impossible for him not to understand the social etiquette of knowing when to stop.
What happened today? Is it so glorious to get the sponsorship of Huanye that it is worth approaching it so recklessly?
She moved her lips, but before she could say anything, she heard Chen Muchuan continue, "In Year 1, Manman, other classmates and I won the silver medal in the Fuya Business Competition. At that time, we were researching a project to improve and optimize idle resort hotels. If you are interested, I can explain it to you in detail. From this aspect, you can also see my strength."
Zhuang Youkai, who had been lazy and calm, finally looked at him straight in the eye, and soon smiled lightly, "Really?"
"Of course." After saying that, Chen Muchuan noticed the cold light in his eyes, and couldn't help feeling a chill in his heart, but still forced himself to say, "She and I have been partners for many years. Not only in Ocamp and business competitions, but also in group projects in class. We did a good job..."
He suddenly paused, because Zhuang Youkai took the business card in his hand, lowered his eyes to scan the titles and names on it one by one, letting them slowly roll over his lips and teeth, and finally called out indifferently, "Chen Muchuan."
These three simple words, the oppressive feeling that follows like a shadow is almost suffocating.
Chen Muchuan replied in a daze, "Yes."
"No matter what your relationship is, it's her ability to win the Huanye business, and using her halo to decorate yourself is called opportunism." After saying that, he inserted the business card into the beautiful rose bouquet. The silver card embedded in the bright rose red was like a knife stabbing his heart. "I think Zhongda should add a business etiquette course to prevent graduates like you from entering the market and destroying the school's reputation."

Mr. Zhuang came to pick her up in person. Jiang Yu didn't dare to be long-winded. After asking the driver to drive his car back, she obediently got into his car, feeling very uncomfortable all the way.
She had never had such a strong desire for gossip in her life, but the man next to her had a sullen face and kept his mouth shut. She was itching to ask, but she didn't know how to start the question.
Seeing how hard she was holding it in, Zhuang Youkai showed mercy: "Just say it if you have something to say."
"Really? Then you can't be angry." Jiang Yu cleared his throat solemnly, "It seems that the boy is indeed a very important person to Zhao Manzhi, maybe it's really..."
"Impossible." Zhuang Youkai glanced at the lights flowing outside the window, "If it's really that relationship, he would have made it clear just now."
Jiang Yu sighed after hearing this, "You mean, the self-introduction is fake, and the provocation is real, just to tell you that he has a good relationship with Zhao Manzhi?"
"Yeah."
Deliberately coming to him and introducing himself in an offensive way, wasn't it just to point out that he has a close relationship with Zhao Manzhi? His thoughts were all written on the surface, just to make things difficult for him, and then to come up with this bad plan, but Chen Muchuan's courage was just to use others to create momentum, and he didn't dare to take any further action before Zhao Manzhi nodded.
Childish, but useful.
At least now, Zhuang Youkai was sitting in the car, and his mind couldn't help but recall the scenes of them playing business competition, celebrating together, and high-fiving each other. What would the young Zhao Manzhi look like?
Once you start to care about someone, you will be full of possessiveness for her past and future. He had never participated in the memories that shaped Zhao Manzhi, so he felt more shocked.
He didn't understand what this feeling was, but he knew that the concrete impact of "Little Boy" was far more profound than he imagined.
Seeing his love-struck look, Jiang Yu chuckled, "Zhao Manzhi didn't deny it, which means he wasn't lying. But since he's so reckless and confronts you, he's either stupid or feels threatened."
"Threat?"
"Yeah. A girl like this who's at the school belle level must have no trouble finding suitors. Chen Muchuan has been with her for so long that he's used to it. Why does he have to provoke you? Maybe it's because he thinks Zhao Manzhi treats you differently." After so many relationships, Jiang Yu, who is at the master level, can finally show off his experiences. For the sake of that crocodile skin, he is particularly generous in teaching, "Except that you didn't have much manners today, this is not a bad thing in essence." Zhuang Youkai
snorted, "He is indeed very rude, you can't blame me."
"The stereotype is that women love to fight for men, but in my opinion, Xiong Jing is no less jealous." Jiang Yu curled his lips, "But you guys are making a big fuss, but in the end it all depends on Miss Zhao's intentions. I'm afraid her bodhi mind is not easy to shake."
Is Zhao Manzhi really simple and pure, or is she a great way without form? Jiang Yu was puzzled.
If she was intentional, her words and actions were not out of line, generous and decent, whether it was Zhuang Youkai or Chen Muchuan, her behavior was not out of line; if she was unintentional, that male classmate was fine, but Jiang Yu knew the person in front of him very well. Would such a person who had not cared about the affairs of the world for many years suddenly be fascinated by someone so much?
"Why do you say that?"
"I tried to trick her before and told her about your relationship with Ada, but she was indifferent. Today, I attended the event on your behalf and said I was your assistant, but she was still polite." She paused, "What do you think she was thinking?"
Zhuang Youkai was silent for a moment, "You said I was your assistant?"
"Yes, didn't they say they were going to find a new assistant for Cynthia's promotion? I just happened to take on this title. If I had just said I attended the event on your behalf, it would have been hard to explain to Miss Zhao."
Oh no.
No wonder Zhao Manzhi looked so distant today.
Jiang Yu was still blabbering, but Zhuang Youkai had no intention of listening, so he interrupted him, "What did you tell her, by phone or email?"
"Ah? Whatsapp." Jiang Yu was also a little confused, and opened the chat interface and handed it to him, "Nothing, just introduced myself. In order not to be exposed, I asked Cynthia to help me cover up the lie."
Zhuang Youkai swiped through the chat records, his breathing gradually became unsteady, and finally returned the phone to Jiang Yu, closed his eyes, and pinched his eyebrows, "Thank you so much."
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Jiang Yu simply pretended to be stupid and smiled, "Oh, I can't afford it. When can I go to choose a bag?"
"Anytime, contact the SA in Shanghai." His tone didn't sound like a joke, "I'll tell my aunt that you have figured it out, and she can also arrange a number for the young man she wanted to introduce to you before for a blind date."
Jiang Yu: "..."

When she came to the lobby of Huanye Hotel again, Zhao Manzhi was in a completely different mood. She found a place to sit in the lobby, opened WhatsApp, and sent a message to Evelyn to tell her that she had arrived.
This scene is exactly the same as when the summer intern gave Cynthia a report, but more than three months have passed.
Time flies.
Zhao Manzhi put away her phone and looked around the hotel furnishings. Unlike the Bund Huanye, which was so extravagant and extravagant, Shatin Huanye was more simple and quiet because it was built earlier and was located in a remote area. The lobby was filled with a faint sandalwood scent, which made this place more peaceful in the bustling city.
Because of the cooperative relationship between Huanye and the school, sometimes the hotel management major would come to the hotel to teach. Zhao Manzhi was not unfamiliar with this place, but she came here for sponsorship and was not in a good mood to relax.
After waiting for a while, a staff member received her. Her eyes were curved like crescents and her words were gentle as spring breeze. "Miss Zhao, right? Please follow me." "
Okay, thank you."
When they reached the elevator, the staff pressed the down button. Zhao Manzhi was a little confused, but didn't say anything.
The hotel has a sunken club. It's not surprising that Jiang Yu really wants to meet her here.
The elevator went down from the G floor. When she saw the staff pressed the LG2 floor, she realized something was wrong and said politely, "Excuse me, I remember LG2 seemed to be a parking lot. Has it been renovated?"
The woman just smiled and said, "You'll know when you get there."
Walking from the elevator hall to the parking lot entrance, Zhao Manzhi's mind flashed with countless Hong Kong movie scenes from the 1990s, coupled with countless urban legends of gang kidnappings, and she became more and more uneasy. There should have been no mistakes in entertaining Jiang Yu last time. Why did she find such a strange place to meet her?
She slowly reached into the small bag she carried with her, which contained a small bottle of anti-wolf spray. Thank God, the self-defense supplies that Ms. Ding stuffed into her bag can finally come in handy now.
The woman leading the way walked to a limited edition Aston Martin, bent slightly, said something to the person in the driver's seat, then smiled and said to Zhao Manzhi, "Please move."
Zhao Manzhi hesitated, looked around at the location of the CCTV, "Do we have to talk in the car?"
The woman looked at the person in the car as if asking for advice, and retreated silently without knowing what guidance she got. Zhao Manzhi observed the outline of the person in the driver's seat, and the more she looked, the less he looked like Jiang Yu. When the woman was about to take the elevator to leave, she hurriedly grabbed her, "Wait for me, I want to call Evelyn."
A trace of surprise flashed in the other's eyes, and soon turned into a proper smile, "Please go ahead."
Zhao Manzhi's heart was beating like a drum, and she dialed Jiang Yu's number. Before the signal sounded, she saw the Aston Martin stop in front of them with a foot on the accelerator, and the car window was lowered, revealing Zhuang Youkai's neat and clear profile.
He was a little different today, wearing only a black shirt, no tie, and three buttons on his collar were loose, revealing his Adam's apple and collarbone. He lifted his sunglasses from his high nose bone and pushed them to the top of his head, and the scattered hair fell down in front of his forehead, adding a bit of romance.
Although the receiver was still against her ear, Zhao Manzhi could not hear the weak current signal. She stared blankly at Zhuang Youkai narrowing his eyes and raising the corners of his mouth slightly, "Zhao Manzhi, you are so timid, are you afraid that I will eat you?"
