The man chuckled. "Hehe, I see, you still haven't let go of your useless pride. As an elder, I'm saying this from my perspective. Pride will only consu you."
"But as an elder, couldn't you forgive and forget the younger generation?" Ling Qingyu wanted to know more about this fraudulent gentleman's inner mindset.
"If forgiving and forgetting is easy in this world, where would the real lesson co from? People will never learn and keep making mistakes." The man said.
"Indeed. You're right." Ling Qingyu nodded. She agreed with the statent of having a morable lesson. But who was giving who? She curled her lips.
At the end of the day, the premise was to have strength to teach others.
"So, only after having a substantial gain embedded in your mory, you won't make the sa mistakes again." The man said. "An entertainer must have a mindset of entertainer."
Hearing the words, those who were working as famous artists clenched their fists in anger but were frustrated their fists ant nothing to people like the fat man. This was the most hurtful for them even if they were kings and queens among thousands of people.
Even Ling Yunxiang pursed her lips but her frustration wasn't too much since she knew her elder sister would teach this pathetic guy living in his own world a lesson soon.
"Anyway, you can't do anything to with your feeble wealth." Ling Qingyu shrugged, prompting so waves of laughter around.
The most sniffling ca from her group of girls. They thought they had never seen Ling Qingyu as a black-bellied type. Your adventure continues at m v|l-e'-
"We'll see in the next few days, You'll lose your career and because of your stubbornness, your sisters will suffer. Oh, who knows they might stab you in the back. In the world of stepping each other, you'll go down toward the path of misery until you'll co and beg ." The man slowly mouthed his words. "By then the price you have to pay will be much larger than ever before."
"I think we have a misunderstanding here—"
"No, unfortunately for you, nope. My words—"
"Excuse , Mister." Ling Qingyu cutoff. "I think you're regarding as an entertainer, which I'm not. And that's the reason why I say you've no control over ."
"Yes, I have control over you…Wait—Did you just say you're not an entertainer." The man now realized sothing was wrong.
"Yes, I've been trying to tell you just now. I'm also a businesswoman the sa as you, senior." Ling Qingyu said with a smile.
The man pointed at the rest of the girls. "Neither are they?"
Ling Qingyu shook her head. The man's eyelids twitched predicting bad premonition. Since Ling Qingyu was working in the sa field as him and sitting at the forefront, their statuses weren't simple. He was quickly thinking of the solution to redy the subtle enmity.
"May I know who might you be?" The man was panicking since this woman could sit here, it was best to solve the feud. But his expression remained stoic and confident.
"I'm Ling Qingyu."
"Hmm, never heard of it." The man scratched the back of his head.
Ling Qingyu was stumped for the first ti. There were still people who didn't know her identity at all. She had been used to gazes of admiration and worship by many won and the urge to conquer from the n.
Nonetheless, she shrugged off the uncomfortable feeling. She also didn't know this man at all; so, why stuck with the useless fa?
Perhaps noticing Ling Qingyu's crack in her expression, the man quickly asked. "Miss, what's your company?"
After Ling Qingyu told the na, the man took out his phone and searched for more information. He was imdiately relieved.
Just a re 30 billion net worth company, although impressive within a short fra, didn't post any threats to him. He was a bit puzzled why this woman was eligible to sit equally with him and his peers.
Because he was searching quickly, he wasn't aware of Ling Qingyu's deeds except for so headlines highlighting her donation amount. The fat man widened his eyes but didn't think much.
He could also gift away more but why would he? He even wondered if this woman had the heart of saintess to uselessly squander away money without any benefits.
"You're an impressive girl to reach this stage." The fat man nodded as if he was affirming the junior's work. "Since this is the case, let's forget what I say but you must drink this cup of wine."
The fat man thought there were many ways to cure Ling Qingyu. Even though he couldn't press on like he used to the weak artists, his strength was stronger than hers.
He didn't want his action to backfire, resulting in a loss-loss situation. He intended to slowly boil the water so that the frog inside the well wouldn't be aware until it was too late.
Besides, Ling Qingyu was a small businesswoman in his opinion, her net worth and her connections weren't comparable to his.
If others heard his inner thoughts, people would complain. Dude, this woman dared to fight even the capital behemoth. What are you?
The fat man might be number one here owning the company but he belonged to the chamber of pharmaceutical companies in the capital. The shares despite owning the majority weren't his alone too. Based on Ling Qingyu's past hands, countless thods to slap him hard.
Ling Qingyu sneered at the man's action. For a short mont, this man softened his tone in panic and after discovering the 'truth', he instantly hardened his stance.
For this type of people, Ling Qingyu only had one thod in mind—crush them to their starting point. And she was about to do so.
She hated the wine culture, popular in the workspace. She had no idea who started it and since when but people followed suit. It was bad behavior yet no one thought of a change.
They used wine culture to oppress those weaker than theirs. They should change for the better since almost everyone ca from the starting point and had experienced them.
Nevertheless, they enjoyed seeing others suffer. At the end of the day, those who were overworked suffered diseases like stomach and intestine cancer because of the wine culture.
Ling Qingyu, in the past life, therefore, never sold her dignity for a more comfortable life. If you lost the real you, throughout your entire life you are not you anymore.
Self-respect, balanced pride and dignity were essential to be a true human being. When others were allowed to trample at will, no one but you could save yourself. So might argue for a better life, sotis letting go was the solution.
Ling Qingyu only had one belief—never ever sell yourself. The journey might be arduous but the reward of do or die was sothing hard to achieve.
"I'm never gonna toast you this wine, nor at anyone. This bullshit wine thing needs to stop." Ling Qingyu said, not caring if the words would offend people. "I may respectfully take a sip or two for enjoynt but I'm not going to be forced by others nor do I like those bullying others. If I see one, I might even help the weak to find their place."
Rembering so poor stories in her past, Ling Qingyu thought why not she helped solve the root cause but she sighed at her powerlessness because the culture was too deep. Maybe a slight change could be made from here.
Just when Ling Qingyu was about to end her pretense and face-slap, Yang Qingyue stood up and interrupted. "Hold on, this Mister. Who do you think you're to dictate others."
A/N: Speaking of wine culture, the author didn't like those beverages or any. Wine is a bit simple and fine. But stronger alcohol content is a big no-no. I experience several tis if I recall and was scolded like not giving any respect? I'm like wtf- at that ti I'm too pure of human relation and don't know yet. I only replied, is your self only worth this small amount?...
