Chapter 178 The Consequences of Teasing
Chapter 178 The Consequences of Teasing
Ye Chen, holding the gift in his hand, sat down at the head table with an air of nonchalance.
He was the first person to sit at the head table.
"Let me see the list." Ye Chen beckoned to his secretary.
The secretary hesitated for a moment, then handed him the list with a smile: "President Ye, please take a look."
"Ah."
After glancing at them casually, Ye Chen sneered, "Of all the people I've invited, how many will actually come?"
The list is full of famous people from the capital.
These people weren't deeply involved with the Qin family and didn't have much business dealings with them.
The secretary smiled awkwardly: "Mr. Ye, I'll have to get back to work now."
"Go."
The secretary quickly left and returned to the doorway to ask the person next to her, "Xiao He, did you call President Qin just now?"
"I can't get through!"
Secretary He, holding her phone, looked anxious: "President Qin isn't answering his private number either."
"Never mind, I hope everything's alright." The two exchanged a glance and continued with their work.
Ye Chen looked at the list in his hand and sneered after a long while.
Qin Yuyang was quite sensible.
These people from the capital city don't sit at the main table.
The main table only had his family and other people from G City, a few wealthy people from H City, and only one or two people from the capital, who were probably his friends.
The other people from the capital were seated at the secondary main table.
"It shows they knew what was important and didn't make any rash arrangements," Ye Chen said casually, then put the list away.
About a hundred people gradually entered the hall.
This size is much smaller compared to the entire Phoenix Hall.
After all, the Phoenix Hall had dozens of tables set up, but only a dozen or so tables were occupied.
Qin Yuyang invited only prominent figures, including his close friends and long-time acquaintances; very few other people from the capital came.
Those with lower status have no chance to come.
Those with high status don't want to come.
This situation seems somewhat awkward.
"Old Qin, Old Qin, why are you walking so fast?" Ye Xuan called out from behind Qin Yuyang.
Qin Yuyang smiled and said, "I'll go check how many people have arrived and see how to arrange things for them later."
After he finishes watching, he still needs to pick up a few friends.
The two moved to the side and looked through the screen at the location of the main hall of the Phoenix Hall.
"Old Qin, there are many empty seats."
Ye Xuan said in a low voice, her brows slightly furrowed.
It seems that these people in the capital don't give Qin Yuyang much face.
"Hmm." Qin Yuyang's smile vanished, and he remained silent with a stern face.
Ye Xuan sighed softly: "Wouldn't Xiao Jiu be heartbroken if she saw this?"
"She won't," Qin Yuyang said coldly. "She's not interested in any of these things. She won't be sad if there's something delicious to eat."
Qin Yuyang was naturally familiar with Xiao Jiu.
With a slight sigh, Qin Yuyang said, "Never mind, I'll go greet my good brothers first."
"Should we cancel the event?" Ye Xuan asked from the side.
Qin Yuyang shook his head: "No need. If there's no one, just move the seats forward and fill the front."
"Okay." Ye Xuan nodded. "Then I'll make the arrangements?"
"No need." Qin Yuyang waved his hand: "You come with me to pick up the older brothers. There are people to take care of things here."
Ye Xuan nodded: "Okay."
Ye Xuan looked exceptionally beautiful today, wearing a shimmering blue dress that complemented Qin Yuyang's navy blue suit.
the other side.
Xiao Jiu Jiu lifted her skirt, followed by Qin Xin, who was wearing a pink dress, and Qin Hao, who was wearing a suit and bow tie.
"The banquet in Phoenix Hall today was a hint from Qin Yuyang, wasn't it? He thinks he's some big shot, being the richest man in G City."
Just then, three portly men in suits walked towards them.
"Young Master Wang is right. These people aren't even worthy of carrying your shoes, let alone having the Wang family behind you."
"That's right. Qin Yuyang is nothing. He just made money because of good luck."
The two people on either side were complimenting the person in the middle.
"He even wants to invite my brother? Dream on! My brother is the head of the Wang family, he's very busy~" The man snorted, looking disdainful.
The man on the left continued, "I heard that Mr. Wang has been keeping his white moonlight as a mistress, and it was only recently exposed."
"That woman's got some nerve. You have no idea how beautiful she is. She dresses so provocatively all the time. She's obviously trying to seduce men." Wang Mao grinned wickedly, his eyes gleaming with a sinister light.
The man on the right continued, "Oh dear, wouldn't your sister-in-law be furious?"
"That's not true. My sister-in-law doesn't care at all. It's said that they signed a prenuptial agreement that they don't interfere with each other."
Wang Mao scoffed: "What's so special about my brother's white moonlight? My sister-in-law has a better figure, she just wears loose clothes all the time."
"Of course, the Bai family has always produced beautiful women, hehehe."
"Snapped!"
The man on the left had barely finished speaking when he was slapped across the face.
Wang Mao said coldly, "I advise you to clear your head and stop fantasizing about my sister-in-law."
"Yes, yes, Mr. Wang is right." The man nodded repeatedly, having lost all face, he could only agree.
The man on the right chuckled and said, "Mr. Wang, shall we go to the Phoenix Hall now?"
“Of course I’ll go. You know Qin Yuyang will definitely try to curry favor with me, right? My willingness to come is a huge favor to him.” Wang Mao was very confident about this.
With so many powerful families in the capital, these people definitely won't come.
He happened to have other business to do and was short of money.
Qin Yuyang is like a piece of fat meat delivered to your door.
Xiao Jiujiu glanced at them and led her younger siblings to the other side.
"Sister, aren't we going that way?" Qin Xin asked softly.
Xiao Jiujiu glanced at Wang Mao: "Do you like that man?"
"I don't like him. He doesn't seem like a good person." Qin Xin shook her head.
Qin Hao, who was standing nearby, said, "Bad guy, hit him!"
"You're not even as tall as his waist, and you're still hitting him." Xiao Jiujiu tapped Qin Hao on the head.
Qin Hao covered his head, looking aggrieved: "Sister, you hit me."
"It was you who hit."
The three little ones quietly went to the waiting area.
Two secretaries were already waiting.
"Young Miss, Second Young Miss, Young Master." The two greeted Xiao Jiu Jiu and the others with smiles.
Xiao Jiu Jiu trotted over, a smile on her face: "Why are we here? Isn't this supposed to be an introduction?"
"You can only leave after President Qin has spoken," the secretary said helplessly.
Scratching her head, Xiao Jiujiu looked towards the door: "Where are the others?"
“They can go in once they have the invitations,” the secretary said, checking the three men’s attire.
Xiao Jiujiu said dejectedly, "Alright then."
She wanted to go out and see if her brother Ye Chen had arrived yet.
"Miss, there's still a while, why don't you have some snacks first?" the secretary said, bringing them some snacks.
Nodding, Xiao Jiujiu said, "Okay, I understand."
After sitting down, she took out her phone and sent a message to Ye Chen.
Nine: Brother Ye, have you come?
Ye: I'm here. You'll see me soon. When will you be making your appearance?
Nine: Let's go later. The lady just told me that I have to wait until Dad finishes speaking before I can go on stage.
Leaf: Line
Wang Mao led a few people to the door.
"Hello, do you have an invitation?" Secretary He asked with a smile.
Wang Mao's gaze scrutinized Secretary He without any politeness, wandering over her body before finally settling on her chest.
He smiled and said flippantly, "With such a great figure, why wear business attire? Come grab a drink with me after you're done?"
The men on either side smiled awkwardly and dared not say anything more.
They fawned over Wang Mao because his brother was Boss Wang.
But now, they wish they could stay as far away as possible.
Mr. Wang, really, doesn't he realize what kind of occasion this is!
"Excuse me, I don't drink." Secretary He said with a professional smile, while the other secretaries glanced at Wang Mao warily.
Wang Mao laughed and reached out to touch Secretary He: "Look at you, so innocent-looking, yet so alluring in this professional short skirt. What's wrong with letting me have some fun with you?"
This is the capital city, this is all my territory.
As he spoke, Wang Mao took two steps forward: "Isn't following me much better than being your secretary?"
"Please have some self-respect, sir." Secretary He took several steps back, dodging Wang Mao's groping hands, his face barely concealing his anger.
Wang Mao grinned smugly: "How am I being disrespectful? I'm giving you a chance, don't be ungrateful."
Secretary He clenched his fists.
The person next to her pulled her hand: "Why don't you bear with it for a bit?"
Secretary He glared fiercely at Wang Mao, licked his back teeth with the tip of his tongue, and then released his grip.
She almost hit someone just now.
Suppressing her anger, Secretary He gave a professional smile: "Sir, please show me your invitation."
She gave Wang Mao a way out.
Unfortunately, Wang Mao did not appreciate it.
He took out a wad of cash from his bag: "Here's ten thousand yuan. That should be enough for you to work for a long time, right?"
"Forget the invitation, I don't even want to attend this welcome party. I just want you to come with me for a couple of drinks later."
He threw the banknotes in front of Secretary He: "How about it?"
Is 10,000 yuan a big deal?
Secretary He sneered, "Sir, if you're not here for the banquet, please leave."
"You're pretty stubborn. Do you know who I am? If your CEO Qin wants to cooperate with me, I'll send you to my bed sooner or later!"
Wang Mao's words were particularly blunt.
He didn't care about anything else and pressed his body directly against Secretary He's chest.
"I can't stand it."
Secretary He calmly said something and grabbed Wang Mao's wrist with one hand.
"Secretary He, please have a suitable amount," one of the secretaries reminded him, taking out her phone.
Secretary He snorted coldly: "I know."
She smiled at Wang Mao and gripped his wrist tightly.
"what!"
"Oh!"
As Wang Mao screamed in agony, Secretary He pulled him toward her and slammed his knee into his stomach.
Immediately afterwards, she threw Wang Mao over her shoulder, slamming him heavily to the ground.
Little Jiu Jiu's ears twitched inside the house, and she quickly opened the door to look outside.
Wang Mao was lying on the ground, screaming in pain before clutching his stomach and curling up in pain.
Secretary He clapped his hands: "You've messed with me, you've kicked a hornet's nest. Touch me again, and I'll cripple your hand."
"Okay, okay, I just called the police."
One of the secretaries pulled Secretary He aside, while the other called for security.
Secretary He broke free from the other secretary's hand, grabbed a piece of cloth and stuffed it into Wang Mao's mouth, then found a safety rope under the reception desk and tied him up.
The man next to him quickly said, "What are you doing? This is Mr. Wang's younger brother. Do you even know who Mr. Wang is?"
"No matter whose brother he is, you can't molest him in public, can you?"
Secretary He raised a cold eyebrow: "Are you all in cahoots?"
She stretched her joints, looking like someone not to be trifled with.
Swallowing hard, the two of them ran away like cowards.
Secretary Yao came out from inside: "What happened?"
"Sister Yao, this man has molested Secretary He!" Secretary Chen hurriedly reported, her face full of anger.
If Secretary He hadn't studied martial arts, wouldn't he have been bullied?
This is simply unreasonable!
Secretary Yao glanced at Wang Mao on the ground. "Call the police."
"We've already called the police," Secretary Wang quickly replied.
Frowning, Secretary Yao glanced around and said, "Drag him away. Don't let him disturb everyone here."
"it is good."
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Wang Mao, lying on the ground, let out two sobs.
Secretary He dragged him behind a large stone pillar and kicked him: "Don't shout, just wait here for the police."
The lobby manager came running over, panting: "What happened?"
He looked around but saw nothing.
"Some people have been caught red-handed for molesting others in public," Secretary Wang complained, leading the lobby manager behind the stone pillar.
Secretary Yao then arranged for the remaining staff to go outside and guide the customers to take another route.
The lobby manager walked over and his eyes widened when he saw Wang Mao: "Mr. Wang, Mr. Wang."
The manager pulled out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat, looking extremely panicked.
He knows this Mr. Wang. He often comes here and flirts with their hostesses. He knows them all.
You can't pretend you don't know them.
"This is President Wang's younger brother, the young President Wang. He comes from the Wang family, one of the top ten families in the capital, not an ordinary Wang family."
The lobby manager whispered to Secretary He, "Why don't you just let him go?"
“That won’t do.” Secretary He frowned. “He was too arrogant just now. I want him to go in.”
The lobby manager said helplessly, "You haven't suffered any losses, so don't make a big fuss."
He leaned close to his secretary's ear and whispered, "The main problem is that even if you arrest him, he can get out right away, and you'll only make enemies."
Secretary He frowned, seemingly deep in thought.
Just then, Secretary Yao arrived: "Whoever molested our company's employee, whoever it is, go inside."
Our Qin Group's legal department is ready to assist you at any time.
"You, this..."
Secretary He thought it over and over, and finally grabbed Secretary Yao's hand: "Sister Yao, let's just let it go today, so as not to cause trouble for President Qin."
"Are you sure?" Secretary Yao asked, looking at her.
Secretary He glared at Wang Mao, then nodded: "Never mind."
After all the fuss, this person won't suffer much loss; she has other options.
Xiao Jiu Jiu was watching from the side when she suddenly felt a little heavy on her: "Xin Xin, what's wrong?"
"Let me see what my sister is looking at."
"I want to see too!"
Then, three little heads appeared stacked on top of each other through the crack in the door.
Once released, Wang Mao yelled, "You dared to hit me today? I'll beat you up!"
He threw a punch.
The fist didn't land on Secretary He; Qin Yuhai grabbed it instead.
Qin Yuyang walked over with a cold face: "Is Mr. Wang here to throw a tantrum because his own company went bankrupt and he has nothing better to do?"
Shaking Wang Mao's hand away, Qin Yuhai stood behind Qin Yuyang with a cold face.
Wang Mao took a few steps back and almost fell back to the ground.
"I only touched your secretary, did I break the law? What's the big deal? We can still cooperate in the future!" Wang Mao looked at Secretary He with a rather unfriendly gaze.
Qin Yuyang's voice was low and hoarse, carrying a warning tone: "President Wang, you'd better show some respect."
Wang Mao, who had initially thought Qin Yuyang would side with him, paused, then looked at Qin Yuyang with displeasure: "President Qin, what do you mean by this? Are you being ungrateful?"
"Today is a big day for our family, so I won't curse anyone. I hope Mr. Wang understands his place."
Qin Yuyang emphasized the small words, and Wang Mao's forehead veins bulged as he listened.
He roared, "Qin Yuyang, don't push your luck! I'm only here today because I'm giving you face!"
"Get out!" Qin Yuyang gave him a blunt order to leave.
Wang Mao was furious: "You just wait!"
After saying that, Wang Mao turned and left...
