By the ti Chen Feng arrived at Dianchuang Culture Company, it was almost four in the afternoon.
The Crown Prince of Da Yun Group, Peng Qirui, was originally scheduled to co at two o'clock, and Chen Feng, the second boss, was also supposed to attend the eting with him.
However, due to the incident where Lin Yujiao was blackmailed, Chen Feng, of course, postponed his arrival at Dianchuang, asking Zhang Delai to apologize on his behalf to Peng Qirui.
Fortunately, he took Lin Yujiao to formally file a report and a case at the police station before two o'clock. The three of them were at the police station waiting for the police to catch the paparazzo, and it wasn't necessarily required for Chen Feng to accompany them.
So, if Peng Qirui insisted on him coming over after arriving at Dianchuang Culture Company, he might have gone over.
But Peng Qirui was quite understanding; when he arrived at Dianchuang around two o'clock, he didn't see Chen Feng, and after Zhang Delai apologized on his behalf, he didn't say much more.
Instead, they proceeded with the normal negotiation process, discussed the contract details, confird that both parties had no errors, and then signed the cooperation agreent.
Around three-thirty, representing Dianchuang Culture Company, Zhang Delai planned to invite Peng Qirui and his team for a al, but Peng Qirui temporarily declined.
The reason for the temporary decline was that he wanted to wait for Chen Feng to arrive to have a al with him, not for Dianchuang to treat him, but for him to treat Chen Feng.
This left Zhang Delai quite puzzled; upon inquiring about the reason, Peng Qirui rely shook his head without answering. He had no choice but to call Chen Feng and inform him of this.
Although Chen Feng also found it sowhat puzzling upon hearing this, he roughly guessed that his quip from yesterday had indeed co true, and the other party might have indeed had a car accident on the way back. The fact that the other party narrowly escaped might have been thanks to his prior warning.
Therefore, Peng Qirui treating him to a al seed justified.
So, after sending Jin Xinyan and Lin Yujiao back to the villa, Chen Feng imdiately headed to Dianchuang.
"Chairman Chen, you're here. I'd like to invite you for a al, can you honor with your presence?"
As soon as Chen Feng entered the company's eting room, Peng Qirui stood up imdiately and walked quickly to Chen Feng to extend the invitation.
Although Chen Feng wasn't fond of such social gatherings, given that the other party was now a significant client of Dianchuang, as the second boss of the company, he had the obligation to maintain a good relationship with them.
As a result, Chen Feng imdiately smiled and said, "How could I let you treat ? I should be the one treating you. After all, you've entrusted us with such a significant project, which is a testant to your trust in our company."
"I said I'll treat you, so I'll treat you. If you don't let , you're looking down on ."
Peng Qirui appeared quite insistent.
Chen Feng laughed heartily and said, "Alright, since you insist, let's do it your way this ti."
Peng Qirui imdiately expressed his delight, "Great, then we'll head over to the Green Restaurant, a three-Michelin-star restaurant. I've already reserved a spot, it's over at Xiu State Building, not too far away."
Chen Feng nodded, "Alright."
Thus, Peng Qirui led Chen Feng out of Dianchuang Company, while Zhang Delai tactfully chose not to follow.
Clearly, Peng Qirui intended to treat Chen Feng alone this ti.
Downstairs, Chen Feng noticed that Peng Qirui wasn't in the Maybach from yesterday, but in a Bentley this ti.
Ever hospitable, Peng Qirui invited Chen Feng to join him in his Bentley, but Chen Feng declined, preferring to drive himself.
Peng Qirui didn't insist, instead he explained the exact location of the Green Restaurant, then drove his Bentley ahead, with Chen Feng following in his Cayenne.
About ten minutes later, they both parked in the underground parking lot of Xiu State Building and exited their vehicles, taking the elevator to the three-star Michelin restaurant.
According to Peng Qirui, it's the only three-Michelin-star restaurant in the province, with the chef being a Michelin three-star chef from Italy, having a gold certification.
Generally speaking, it requires a reservation a week in advance to dine here, but he's the exception, able to secure a reservation a day in advance.
Upon entering the restaurant, they first arrived at the lobby, which was spacious and quiet, with indoor light shows, different colored lights shining all around. It wasn't disorienting thanks to the additional lighting, and there was a massive rotating golden globe in the middle, making it quite upscale.
After passing through this sowhat empty lobby and walking at least thirty ters inside, they arrived at the actual dining area, designed with floor-to-ceiling windows on all four sides, offering views of the cityscape outside.
The dining tables for custors were placed by three of the windows, generously spaced apart with elegant decorations serving as partitions.
At a cursory glance, there were only nine tables in the entire restaurant. At the mont, apart from the waitstaff, there were no custors at any tables.
Just as they entered the restaurant, Peng Qirui proudly remarked, "I've booked this entire restaurant; from now until nine in the evening, it'll just be the two of us dining here."
Chen Feng was taken aback, yet inexplicably felt a sense of awkwardness, thinking to himself that he wasn't the woman Peng Qirui was trying to woo, so was it necessary to book the whole place?
Nevertheless, outwardly, Chen Feng politely remarked, "You've really gone to great lengths, there's no need to make it so grand and courteous."
Peng Qirui replied earnestly, "It's necessary. Thanks to your warning yesterday, I alerted my driver, otherwise, I might have really been in danger."
Chen Feng smiled at this but refrained from further polite exchanges.
Seeing this, Peng Qirui was even more convinced that Chen Feng might truly possess so ability to read people, otherwise, how could he explain the accuracy of Chen Feng's warning yesterday?
Peng Qirui quickly led Chen Feng to the innermost table, right by the window facing the entrance of the restaurant. This was undoubtedly the best table, offering a panoramic view of the surrounding buildings and street scenes.
Two beautiful foreign waitresses stood by their table, speaking fluent Mandarin.
Each of them took a nu and ordered a few dishes, without choosing any wine.
Once the waitstaff left, Peng Qirui leaned back in his chair, slightly turned his body, looked out at the view, and then smiled, saying, "Chairman Chen, you might not be aware, but this case with your Dianchuang is the largest project I've undertaken since I beca Vice President of the Group. Previously, I could only handle minor projects at the company, without any real opportunity to showcase my abilities."
Feigning curiosity, Chen Feng said, "Aren't you the Crown Prince of Da Yun Group? And I heard your father has stepped down from active leadership."
Peng Qirui sighed and said, "Although I bear the title of Crown Prince, it's sowhat unearned. My father, as Chairman, only holds less than one-third of the group's shares. While my father commands respect and all other shareholders place great trust in him, it's different for , as I haven't fully gained their trust yet.
Moreover, compared to , the shareholders have more trust in the current Group President Lu Lixiang. But their trust in him is justified; after all, under Lu Lixiang's presidency over the past few years, our Da Yun Group has thrived remarkably, and his personal work capabilities are indeed exceptional."
