Chapter 709: Chapter 709: Li Beijue Just Left Chapter 709: Chapter 709: Li Beijue Just Left Chi Enen smiled gracefully, deftly finishing off the red wine in her glass in one gulp. Her slender neck and the red wine glass shone together, a striking sight.
But to Li Beijue, it was an excruciatingly glaring sight.
He emptied a goblet full of red wine and slamd it down onto the table with force.
A resounding ‘bang’ echoed through the room.
He pushed his chair back, radiating coldness as he abruptly stood up, “I have sothing to take care of, I need to leave first.”
President Lin, who was on good terms with him, was taken aback and reminded him, “Uh, Young Master Li, the al has just started. Why don’t you stay and eat before leaving?”
Wasn’t Young Master Li here to talk business just like him?
The banquet had barely begun; why did he want to leave all of a sudden?
Li Beijue’s temples bulged slightly, struggling to suppress the emotions about to erupt in his chest. He glanced around the private room. When his eyes landed on Chi Enen, his gaze paused for just a mont, just a mont, before swiftly moving away.
It seed as though his expression hadn’t changed, but those familiar with him knew that his eyes had grown colder.
Like a volcano covered in ice and snow, ready to burst with the slightest provocation!
“No need, enjoy your al,” he said as he picked up his belongings and turned to leave, not looking at Chi Enen again throughout the entire process.
He had to leave!
If he didn’t, he feared he wouldn’t be able to resist dragging this woman away in front of everyone!
He was more afraid of losing control of his emotions, completely losing it, and causing irreparable damage!
Huo Nancheng watched him exit the private room, smoothly breaking the ice, “President Li really is sothing, leaving right as we’ve started eating. Well, let’s continue with our al.”
“By the way, Miss Chi, didn’t your company discover a new oil field in Country T? I’m quite interested. I’ve already discussed my thoughts with your project manager, and I’m wondering if he conveyed my interest to you?”
The person being addressed seed a bit distracted and didn’t respond to him.
Huo Nancheng, still patient and in good spirits, called out again, “Miss Chi?”
“Hmm?” The distracted person finally snapped back to reality, her bright eyes turning towards him.
“I said I am very interested in the new oil field your company discovered. I discussed so of my thoughts with the project manager, and I was wondering if he relayed my intentions to Miss Chi?”
He had taken the lead, and the remaining two were not to be outdone.
“I’m also very interested in that oil field. Representative Chi, please let us know the terms for partnership.”
“Since President Lin and Young Master Huo have spoken, I’ll be straightforward too— I’m very interested in that oil field and would really like to work with Ryan.”
None of the three n were willing to back down.
All waiting for the host sitting at the head position to speak up.
The private room quieted for a second.
Then ca the woman’s gentle yet assertive voice, “I apologize to you three. I already have a candidate in mind that I’d like to collaborate with on that project. Unfortunately, he has just left, but I will find another ti to contact him. Today’s al will be my way of apologizing, please enjoy your food.”
There was only one person who had just left—Young Master Li!
Huo Nancheng’s face showed a mont of displeasure, but he reacted the quickest, imdiately replying, “Haha, it’s okay, Miss Chi, it doesn’t matter if you have soone in mind for a collaboration. We can still work together if there is an opportunity; my proposition remains unchanged.”
The others were not fools either; in the world of business, until contracts are signed, no one knows who will ultimately prevail. Right now, Ryan’s representative simply said she wanted to work with Master Jue, but who knows whether she will end up working with Master Jue or not.
They followed suit in expressing their stance, and the atmosphere at the banquet brightened up once more…
