Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System Chapter 497 - 454: Showing No Respect

Just as Zhou Shen was about to grit his teeth and down the drink, a hearty laugh suddenly ca from behind him:

"Hahaha, there’s just too much going on, I didn’t manage to attend to everyone. I hope you’ll all understand."

Upon hearing these words, Zhou Shen, who was originally about to drink, let out a long sigh of relief.

As he held the wine glass to his mouth, unsure of what to do.

The owner of the voice behind him had already stood beside him, gently patting his shoulder, indicating he should put the glass down.

At the sa ti, he said to him:

"Xiao Zhou, hold off on the drinking for now, I’ll chat with everyone first."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhou imdiately put down his glass and stood up very politely, respectfully addressing the person as President Li.

Not only him, but everyone at the table also stood up to greet Li Huiqun.

But Li Huiqun smiled and gestured for everyone to sit down.

"Everyone, please sit, please sit, there’s no need to be so polite. You’re all guests, and like I said, there’s a lot going on today, sorry for not being attentive. Please forgive ."

It must be said that after so ti of honing, Li Huiqun was no longer the naive and ignorant youth he once was.

Now, there’s an aura of authority about him.

His every word and action gave an irresistible feeling.

"Ah, President Li, what are you saying? It’s our honor to be here today."

"Yes, yes, having the chance to attend the Eldest Princess’s full month banquet is sothing we can boast about for a long ti, hahaha."

"I wanted to co over and greet you earlier, but seeing you were too busy, I didn’t dare. Please don’t hold it against us, President Li."

Listening to everyone’s flattering words, Li Huiqun imitated Lin Yi with a slight smile:

"Haha, let’s not talk about these things, our goal today is to have fun."

After saying this, Li Huiqun gestured to a waiter nearby:

"Bring so more wine to this table."

After saying that, he looked at everyone present, smiling and saying:

"I’ve noticed that everyone here seems to have a good tolerance for alcohol. Today, there’s plenty of wine, so drink to your heart’s content."

But after a slight pause, he turned to look at Zhou Shen beside him, frowning slightly as he said:

"But Xiao Zhou, I have to remind you of sothing.

Your task today is to accompany everyone here, not to drink.

If you want to drink, feel free at our internal gatherings later, but today, I’m giving you an order.

For the remainder of the event, you’re not allowed to drink more.

Don’t end up being the one passed out before everyone else has had their fill.

What’s the point of having you here if you do that? Are they here to accompany you or are you here to accompany them?"

Reprimanded by Li Huiqun, Zhou Shen imdiately bowed his head in sha.

He repeatedly assured that he understood.

Though Li Huiqun’s words were righteous and beyond reproach, everyone at the table was cunning enough to recognize he was protecting his subordinate.

It was obvious that Li Huiqun had seen the group forcing Zhou Shen to drink and had co to stand up for his subordinate.

But out of respect for Li Huiqun, no one said anything further, simply smiling and changing the subject.

"Haha, President Li, you’ve misunderstood President Zhou. President Zhou can hold his liquor, a few drinks are nothing.

Besides, there will be other tis for gatherings, but today is your group’s montous occasion, how can there be no drinking?

Even though President Zhou is your subordinate, we’re technically on break now, there’s no need to be too strict, haha."

Hearing these words from the sowhat chubby middle-aged man, Li Huiqun frowned slightly to himself.

This guy truly doesn’t know what’s good for him. My words were already straightforward, showing them respect and giving them an out.

Yet the other party, knowing the circumstances, still said such things. Clearly, this is ignorance.

Despite this, Li Huiqun also took note of this person’s appearance.

Later, he would have soone find out the na of this person’s company.

He would also remove that company from Zaohe Group’s partnership list.

This wasn’t due to personal affront, but because if the boss is like this, it’s destined that the company won’t have a bright future.

After all, the nature of the boss often dictates the company’s prospects.

Even with this thought, Li Huiqun maintained a faint smile, without revealing anything.

However, he did not pay further attention to the man, knowing his own status represented the entire Zaohe Group.

Even if he disliked the man’s words, he wouldn’t show it, nor give anyone a handle against him.

After all, the difference in status between himself and the man was too vast.

Upon hearing the man’s words, ignoring him was the best way forward, seeing him as transparent.

This way, he didn’t appear overly petty and demonstrated Zaohe Group’s strength to everyone present.

It was uncertain if the middle-aged man was drunk, but seeing Li Huiqun not responding, he spoke up again:

"Hahaha, I’m not very educated, and my words may not be pleasant. Please don’t hold it against , President Li.

I’ve visited several tis before but never t you. Luckily today I see you and want to take the chance to communicate."

Seeing the man speak to him again, Li Huiqun knew ignoring him further would seem petty.

So, he smiled and looked at the man, waiting for him to continue.

The middle-aged man, seeing Li Huiqun’s attention, laughed heartily and touched his balding head, continuing:

"President Li, let introduce myself.

You can call Lao Chen. I’m in the automotive wheel hub machining business, the group is called ’Baolun Industry.’

We have more than ten wheel hub processing plants of various sizes.
