Chapter 1046 The Hateful Li Ye
Chapter 1046 The Hateful Li Ye
In his previous life, Li Ye knew a truth: the more successful a person is, the less willing he is to attend dinner parties, because the value of a favor with an uncertain future is far higher than the price of a meal with a clear present price.
Or have you seen some childhood friends who, after growing up, are not far away from each other, but gradually stop communicating with each other?
Everyone is afraid of trouble.
Li Dayong is now a person who is "doing well".
Li Dayong married the billionaire's sister. His wedding was all over the newspapers. At a young age, he was already one of the most powerful figures in Changbei Machinery, a large joint venture, and he drove a car worth hundreds of thousands of dollars around the city.
With his smug spirit, if he accepts everyone who comes, how can he not have dinner parties every day?
So since getting married, Li Dayong has tried his best to avoid attending meaningless dinner parties and deliberately narrowed his social circle.
But Li Dayong was really conflicted about today's dinner.
Because dinners like class reunions are relatively much cleaner, as long as everyone only talks about the friendship of past classmates and does not talk about worldly highs and lows, then this precious youthful friendship seems to be able to be preserved forever.
Even though Lin Qiuyan was involved, there were still many other classmates with whom he once had a good relationship, and Li Dayong was reluctant to let her go.
So Li Dayong's bottom line this time is to let Lin Qiuyan recognize the facts and admit her mistakes, then Fenghua Clothing does not mind giving Hengle Clothing Company a new OEM contract. After all, they have recruited a lot of workers this year and are waiting for orders to pay their wages.
In this way, Li Dayong gave an explanation to his classmates and guaranteed the income source for thousands of workers, which made everyone happy.
But after listening to Li Dayong's "ideal plan", Li Ye smiled faintly.
Having experienced the great changes decades later, he knew very well that pure friendship among classmates would become extremely precious after leaving school.
Some "smart people" would like to cut through all their classmates like cutting a hole in a knife, and will not stop until all the past friendships are cashed in.
If there is one smart person among ten people, it will force everyone else to become cold-blooded in order to protect themselves from harm.
And there were exactly ten people who invited Li Dayong to dinner today.
After Li Dayong entered the agreed private room, he found that there were only two empty seats left at the table for twelve.
Li Dayong was a little surprised, because when he called to say he was coming, he asked which classmates were there and was sure that there would be only seven or eight people, so even if Li Ye and others decided to come at the last minute, they didn't think about the problem of not having enough seats.
But this is not a big problem. At worst, I can just move to another room!
But the host doesn't think so.
When Li Ye and his companions entered the private room, the people at the table were also stunned.
Then the person sitting in the main seat laughed and teased, "Of course, Li Dayong, you are really different after becoming the son-in-law of a wealthy family. You even bring a secretary and a bodyguard with you when you go out!"
"Hahahaha, I think it's more than that! It's a bodyguard, secretary, and driver."
"."
Li Dayong had a smile on his face when he entered the private room, but now his expression was frozen in shock.
Li Ye's group consists of five people. If they were a secretary and a bodyguard, it would not make up the number. It would be most reasonable to add a driver.
But you let Li Ye, Hao Jian and Jin Peng be your bodyguards, secretaries and drivers?
You are kidding me, even if it is Wang Jianqiang now, Li Dayong can’t control him, okay?
Eight out of Li Dayong's ten classmates were laughing, but no one on Li Ye's side was laughing.
Li Ye swept his cold eyes over, carefully looking at the faces of these people and discerning their mentality.
If the other party is still like the "bad friends" in their school days, just making fun of each other without any sense of propriety, then they are just "not grown up and immature". They may hope to get closer to Li Dayong through such jokes that they used to make frequently.
But if they have a "hate the rich" mentality, and just want to embarrass Li Dayong, a guy who is lucky enough to marry a beautiful, rich and white woman, in order to feel psychologically balanced, then there is no need to eat this meal, and they should just turn around and leave.
"Ha~"
Facts have proved that we should not underestimate the darkness of human nature. Among these eight people who laughed, four were the former, and four were the latter.
As for the two people who didn't laugh, Li Ye didn't speculate. They definitely had no good intentions towards Li Dayong.
One is Lin Qiuyan, and the other is Lin Qiuyan’s cousin Chen Juming. Both suffered heavy losses from Fenghua Clothing’s operation. How could they have any goodwill left?
Cut off someone's financial resources and still expect them to return to you? That's the style of stories in female magazines, too unrealistic.
The collective cold faces of Li Ye and others also made Li Dayong's classmates who were laughing realize that something was wrong, and the students sitting in the main seats stood up.
"Sorry, sorry! We didn't expect Li Dayong to bring a few people with him. Please don't mind if there is anything we haven't done well. Please don't mind."
Li Ye said calmly: "We don't mind anything, but we brothers only get together once a year, but today at noon Li Dayong insisted on leaving us behind and coming to drink with his classmates.
So we came to see how good the relationship was that was worth him abandoning us, who have been brothers for many years. As a result, we just walked in and you made fun of us. What, is it funny to be a son-in-law of a wealthy family? "
"."
Li Ye's words were full of hostility, but no one present slammed the table to refute them.
why?
Because they want something.
I clearly asked Li Dayong to do something for me today, but I ended up making fun of Li Dayong. I really don't know what I am doing.
This scene was very similar to the few ruffians Li Ye knew in his previous life.
When they were young and ignorant, they called each other brothers. As a result, now that they have grown up and started their own families and careers, he still orders his former brothers to be loyal and contribute money and effort as if it were their duty.
When you are classmates, you can empty your wallets to drink together, but after graduation, can you still empty your classmates' wallets?
"It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. How could we laugh at Li Dayong? Li Dayong has a happy marriage, and we, the classmates, are happy for him!" The classmate sitting in the main seat was a very presentable person. Facing Li Ye's hostility, he was not angry. Instead, he explained with a smile.
"Really? It's just a misunderstanding," Li Ye also said with a smile, "I am a brother who values friendship, so if there is a misunderstanding between classmates, he will feel bad.
But because he values friendship, he tends to be impulsive and irrational, and do unreasonable things.
Today, we came here with Dayong to have a good chat with you. Friendship is friendship, and reason is reason. We must distinguish clearly. "
"This"
The student sitting in the main seat said in embarrassment: "Brother, you can see that we are not prepared today and there is no room for us."
Li Ye asked in surprise: "Can't we sit down? If there's no room here, can't we just change to another room or get a bigger table?"
"."
The room fell silent and no one spoke.
Everyone has a temper. Li Ye’s arrogance was very “annoying”, which of course made Li Dayong’s classmates uncomfortable, so they didn’t want to entertain him at all.
But it is inappropriate for you to ask others to do things and still talk about self-respect.
Li Ye turned around and said, "I don't want to be served! Why don't we go somewhere else and continue drinking? I didn't have many drinks at noon!"
"Let's go then!"
Hao Jian and Jin Peng turned around and left, and Li Dayong followed them.
Li Dayong has no temper? What is a son-in-law of a wealthy family? You think of me as a son-in-law, right?
Look at the novels of the 1980s. Are there any that promote the idea of a son-in-law from a wealthy family? A live-in son-in-law, that sounds terrible!
Seeing that Li Dayong was about to leave, Lin Qiuyan finally couldn't sit still anymore.
She had been silent just now because she knew Li Ye and knew how difficult Li Ye was, so she wanted to use her classmates to drive Li Ye away.
But if Li Dayong, the "host and guest", also left, what would be the meaning of today's dinner? Without the protagonist, would a bunch of extras just be doing the show?
"Dayong, are you just leaving like this? We are classmates, are you so heartless?"
Li Dayong looked at Lin Qiuyan, turned his head expressionlessly, and continued walking out the door.
It is true that he values the friendship between classmates, but he values the friendship between brothers even more. After what happened today, the classmates probably don't need to keep in touch with each other in the future.
Lin Qiuyan looked at it and could only question Li Ye sharply: "Student Li Ye, this matter has nothing to do with you, why do you want to intervene and destroy our friendship?"
"It has nothing to do with me?"
Li Ye stopped, chuckled, turned around, pulled out an empty chair and sat down.
"Then I can't leave today, because this matter is related to me, and I have to talk to you about it."
"."
Li Dayong's classmates were all surprised. They didn't expect that this matter was related to Li Ye.
Li Ye looked at the expressions of the people around him, then turned back to Wang Jianqiang and said, "Qiangzi, there's not enough room here. Go order another table outside. Ask Brother Peng and Lao Hao to wait for us. Dayong and I will have a few drinks and then leave."
Wang Jianqiang looked at Li Ye and said sullenly, "You drank a lot at noon. There are so many people here. Can you drink enough?"
Li Ye laughed and scolded: "I can't drink more than you, do you think you can drink more than you can? Your alcohol tolerance is so low."
Wang Jianqiang went out without waiting for Li Ye to finish speaking, then quickly dragged a chair back and forced himself next to Li Ye.
"I'll drink it for you first."
"."
Wang Jianqiang is such a straightforward person. He may not be as capable as Hao Jian and Jin Peng in dealing with situations, but he will definitely be the first one to step forward when something happens.
Li Ye had no choice but to say to Jin Peng: "Brother Peng, can you guys drink some first?"
Jin Peng touched his scalp and said with a smile: "We are not used to sitting at the same table with children! Forget it, we will go upstairs. Call us if there is anything."
"."
Who is the child? Who is the child?
Does this sound like a word?
The atmosphere in the box became depressing, and everyone looked at Li Ye with unfriendly expressions.
Li Ye ignored the bad intentions of these people and said to himself, "Let me first explain why this matter is related to me, because I was the one who arranged Li Dayong's marriage.
Now you hope that Li Dayong can use the power of the rich lady from Hong Kong Island to help Lin Qiuyan negotiate with Fenghua Clothing, but have you ever thought about whether it will affect Li Dayong's family?"
"If it affects the harmony of Li Dayong's family, it will be very difficult for me as a matchmaker to do my job."
"."
Everyone was stunned again, and a few of them looked ashamed immediately, because they knew about what happened between Li Dayong and Lin Qiuyan, and now that Lin Qiuyan came to find Li Dayong, it was indeed a bit unclear.
The faces of the other few people were full of disdain.
Destroying other people's families? What does it have to do with me?
