Reborn: I'll Never Fail My Childhood Sweetheart Again Chapter 560 - 211: Dinner Turmoil (Part 3)
In na only, Sister Ru was the proprietress, and naturally, she had to join the gathering. When she saw such a young man among the high-ranking officials of New Era, she was quite surprised, especially since Su Zelin held such a high position in the company. She imdiately rembered him.
Her own boyfriend had to treat the high-ranking officials of New Era like financial deities, so how could Sister Ru dare to be negligent? She silently cursed a few of her underlings for not understanding the situation.
Su Zelin smiled slightly: "Haha, Sister Ru, I just ca out casually with so friends from the student council to get a free al from a few bosses. I didn’t expect we’d coincidentally end up at Taste Residence, what a coincidence. Oh, and I heard they happen to be good friends of President Zhang."
The goons just made a casual joke, but in Sister Ru’s ears, it had a deeper aning.
"President Su, you’re joking. With your status, Yuanhang and I can’t just treat you to a al easily. It’s rare for you to co, so we must be the hosts this ti. I’ll go give instructions to the kitchen to arrange so special dishes. President Su, you all chat for now, excuse !"
As soon as Sister Ru stepped out of the private room, she imdiately dialed her boyfriend’s number: "Hello, Yuanhang? Hurry over, New Era’s Operations Director, President Su, has co to our restaurant for a al."
"Uh, why is President Su here?"
Zhang Yuanhang’s tone sounded a bit astonished over the phone.
Despite President Su’s young age, his position among New Era’s top ranks was extraordinary. He was also a veteran of the finance departnt’s store and had contributed significantly to New Era’s establishnt.
Moreover, he is currently New Era’s Operations Director, holding significant authority.
All the company’s operational planning matters have to pass through him, including the approval of franchise stores.
His science and engineering university franchise had tasted success, and he was preparing to open a second one. For this, Zhang Yuanhang had recently tried to invite Su Zelin for a al to hand him a red envelope, hoping to establish a good relationship and expedite the approvals. Unfortunately, he was tactfully declined by the man.
Now he suddenly ca to Taste Residence, which made Zhang Yuanhang very puzzled.
Sister Ru continued, "It seems like Zhou Yuan and so others invited so female college students from the finance departnt’s student council for a al, and President Su ca along."
"That’s right, that did happen. The other day while drinking with Zhou Yuan and them, those two brats boasted about eting a few decent girls in the student council while seeking sponsorship at the finance departnt, and said they planned to invite them out for a al soti to see if there was an opportunity. But why is President Su among this group of people?"
Zhang Yuanhang was quite puzzled.
Logically, Zhou Yuan and the others wouldn’t invite a man, and even if they did, they might not be able to get him to co!
"I wanted to invite him for a al alone before, and I was turned down, so how could Zhou Yuan and the others have the ability to invite such a big shot?"
Suddenly, he thought of an unsettling possibility.
Sure enough, it was confird the next mont.
"Your underlings probably wanted to hit on soone’s girl. Just now, they even complained about President Su being a third wheel, sarcastically criticizing him for having the nerve to tag along and scrounge a al!"
Sister Ru briefly described the overall situation, which made Zhang Yuanhang anxious upon hearing it.
He was in the process of applying to New Era’s headquarters to open a second franchise in Lin’an, and before it even got approved, his underlings already caused such trouble with the girl of the Operations Director who holds the approval power.
"Does President Su know about my relationship with Zhou Yuan?"
"How wouldn’t he? They were just bragging about you being their big brother!"
"Damn it, those fools, real pig brains!"
Zhang Yuanhang cursed furiously.
Now that he knew they were his underlings, if he got upset and vented on him, directly denying the second franchise approval, it would be a big problem.
If those underlings were around, he would want to slap each of them.
"iru, please help stabilize the situation first. Have the kitchen prepare so quality dishes, and get the Moutai ready; this al is on us for President Su!"
"I know, I’m on my way to the kitchen!"
"Alright, I’ll be there right away, let’s leave it at that!"
Ending the call, Young Master Zhang anxiously pressed down hard on the gas pedal, accelerating the car, even running a red light on the way, not caring about anything else.
Taste Residence.
After Sister Ru left the room, it beca much quieter imdiately.
Zhou Yuan and his group occasionally glanced at Su Zelin with faces marked by surprise and indecision.
It seed Sister Ru didn’t mistake him for soone else.
Moreover, her attitude when speaking with this President Su was quite humble, and even Zhang Yuanhang might personally co to accompany conversation later.
Who exactly was he?
Tao Min and the other two student council mbers were also very surprised.
They didn’t expect that this guy would have such standing.
Su Zelin, on the other hand, calmly sipped his tea as if nothing had happened.
The eyes of Huang Panpan beside him carried a trace of pride and admiration.
Back in the day at the internet cafe, the senior slamd the table and scared away a few thugs bothering her.
Facing a few guys bothering her again today, the senior didn’t even need to speak, and they were already scared.
The atmosphere was sowhat awkward, and after a long while, Zhou Yuan finally cleared his throat to break the silence.
"So, President Su, what’s your job?"
The change in address was a bit awkward.
Just now, he had been calling him "Xiaosu," acting all high and mighty.
"I wouldn’t dare claim high status; I’m just an ordinary college student, working part-ti at a digital business company."
Su Zelin lifted his teacup and took a sip, responding leisurely.
Everyone was puzzled upon hearing this.
Just a part-tir?
No, that can’t be right, why would Sister Ru call him President Su then?
Tao Min took the initiative to add: "President Su’s company is called New Century Digital. He is currently holding a position at the headquarters’ managent level."
The atmosphere felt slightly off, and she didn’t dare to call him by na casually anymore.
New Century!
The group of rich kids was all taken aback.
They were not strangers to this na.
In recent months, the chain digital enterprise’s na had been very prominent in Lin’an.
On TV, newspapers, roadside billboards, and even the local BBS, its presence was everywhere. The strong publicity campaign made it known to anyone not living under a rock in Lin’an.
More importantly, their backing, Zhang Yuanhang, also opened a franchise of New Century and was reportedly preparing a second store.
This person was part of New Century’s headquarters’ managent; it seed his position wasn’t low to receive such special treatnt from Sister Ru, considering her interests were tied with Zhang Yuanhang.
The wealthy young n exchanged glances, feeling a vague unease inside.
It seed... they were in trouble.
