These people were truly seasoned warriors of alcohol, one by one coming over to toast Guo Xuyang and his group.
Eventually, Guo Xuyang had to use his detoxification ability to neutralize the alcohol.
Ilena’s belly was now even more prominent.
“Yangzi, drink less. You’ve had quite a bit today.”
She hadn’t been drinking and was quite sober, advising from the side.
“It’s fine, Ilena. I’m happy today, it’s rare for everyone to gather like this.
Be careful, don’t let anyone bump into you.”
“Okay.” Ilena saw that she couldn’t persuade him and returned to her chair.
“Yangzi, let’s go over there.
I’ll introduce these people to you.”
Guo Xuhui was already swaying from the drinks.
“Alright, I couldn’t even recognize them when they came over earlier.
It’s only right that we go over and reciprocate their toasts.”
Guo Xuyang stood up steadily.
“Yangzi, these are the groomsmen, the photographer, and the cameraman.
Brothers, General Manager Guo is coming over to join you all for a drink.
Come on, everyone raise your glasses.”
Guo Xuhui led Guo Xuyang to the table with the male companions and said.
“Thank you, General Manager Guo,” everyone said in unison.
“Thank you, brothers, for coming to help. Brother Hui will be relying on all of you for protection that day.
Come on, brothers, let’s clink glasses.”
As Guo Xuyang spoke, he tilted his head back and downed the wine in his glass.
“Absolutely,” not a single one of these salespeople backed down, directly raising their glasses and downing the liquor.
“Clearly, you’re all champions tested by alcohol.
You all continue drinking, and we’ll order more if the wine runs out.”
Guo Xuyang said this as he moved to the table with the women.
Xu Lili was also seated at this table.
“General Manager Guo,” she stood up.
“Hello everyone. I’ve come to toast all the sisters here. You’ll all be working hard that day,” Guo Xuyang said.
“It’s not hard, it’s our duty. This is a happy occasion for General Manager Guo and Manager Xiao. We are honored to be able to help,” Xu Lili replied.
“Come, let’s raise our glasses together. Let’s have a toast.”
As Guo Xuyang spoke, he drank the white wine in his glass.
These women were no less capable, finishing off whatever was in front of them, be it white wine, red wine, or beer.
“Zi Qi isn’t here?”
Guo Xuyang didn’t see Lin Ziqi and asked.
“Her sister is here today.
She’s with her sister, and she told me in advance,” Guo Xuhui said.
“Oh? When did her sister arrive?”
“I heard she arrived this afternoon.
Something happened in Mai Cheng, and she’s preparing to come here to work.
Zi Qi wants to arrange for her sister to work in finance at the Boci store.”
“What did you say?”
“I agreed. They’re all acquaintances, and I heard her sister is also professionally trained.”
“That’s why I didn’t see Zi Qi today?”
“She went to pick up her sister early this morning.
She had only left not long before you arrived at the store.”
“Mm. Let’s go over then.
Everyone, please eat slowly. If you need anything, just tell Manager Xiao directly.”
Guo Xuyang said as he returned to his seat.
“General Manager Cheng, what do you think of this dish?”
“It’s very good. If it were up to this standard that day, it would definitely be considered top-notch in our provincial capital,” Cheng Xiuping replied.
“That’s good. There’s one more thing. I’d like my father to accompany you to the bride’s family’s home. What do you think?”
“It’s fine if Uncle Guo goes.
I don’t need to go. I still have a lot of things to manage here.
If you feel that Uncle Guo might have trouble going alone, you can have General Manager Wu accompany him.”
“That would be fine too. In the next couple of days, please arrange for someone to move all the raw jade to the west villa.
I’ll need to tidy things up on my end.
It will be inconvenient to tidy up after my parents arrive.”
“Alright. I’ll arrange for someone to come over tomorrow morning.
You need to tell me in advance how many people will be coming from the bride’s side.
If there are many people, we’ll need to find a large bus.”
“No problem. I’ll call you once Xiao Li confirms the arrangements back home in a few days.”
“Okay. That’s all for today. I see everyone has had quite a bit to drink. Shall we head back?”
“Mm. Please say a few words.”
“Everyone, please be quiet for a moment,” Cheng Xiuping said, clearing his throat.
“It’s getting late. Thank you to all the brothers and sisters for coming to help.
You all have work tomorrow, so shall we wrap up?”
“Good,” people from several tables responded.
“Then please be careful on your way back.
Drivers, find a designated driver. If you’re not driving, take a taxi. Please get home safely.
Let’s head back,” Cheng Xiuping said as he stood up.
Everyone also stood up and saw Guo Xuyang and Cheng Xiuping and the others off.
It had to be said that these people had formidable drinking capabilities.
Across three tables, a total of twenty-one bottles of national liquor, twelve bottles of red wine, and six cases of beer were consumed.
Liu He looked on with his mouth agape, wondering how much alcohol would be needed on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month.
He secretly planned ahead, making detailed notes of the alcohol situation. If they ran short during the wedding banquet, it would be embarrassing.
This was his first formal appearance before the boss, and he couldn’t afford to mess it up.
Guo Xuyang, of course, wasn’t concerned with these details. He was somewhat dazed as he made a phone call.
“Zi Qi? Brother Hui said your sister is here.”
“Yes. We’re at the hotel.”
“Which hotel? I’ll come over.”
“It’s too late today, and my sister is resting. I’ll bring my sister to find you tomorrow.”
“Alright then. You should also get some rest.”
“Okay. Drink plenty of water when you get back. I heard from Brother Hui this afternoon what happened; I couldn’t make it.”
“It’s alright. That’s all for now,” Guo Xuyang said, hanging up the phone.
“Zi Qi, what’s going on between you and Guo Xuyang?” Lin Zixuan asked.
“Nothing much. We were discussing Brother Hui’s wedding tonight.
I wasn’t there, so Yangzi called to ask about it.”
“I’m asking about your current relationship.”
“There’s nothing between us. If anything, he’s the boss and I’m an employee. That’s all.”
“Is there no possibility of you two getting back together?”
“Sister, what are you thinking? We never even started anything, so what’s there to get back together for?”
“Then why did he want you to work here?”
“Isn’t it because of the Wang Jun incident? Otherwise, I wouldn’t have come to the provincial capital.”
“I heard Wang Jun returned from outside and has been shouting that he wants revenge on Guo Xuyang.
He says Guo Xuyang sent his father to prison.”
“Wang Jun only relied on his father. Now that his father is arrested, no one will stand up for him.
Do you think Guo Xuyang really got his father arrested?”
“I don’t know. He never told me about that.
Since coming to the provincial capital, I’ve basically never seen him.
Xiao Yun was responsible for everything here initially, and later his brother Guo Xuhui took charge of the 4S dealership.
Xiao Yun is responsible for all affairs in the provincial capital.”
“So, his business has become very large?”
“Yes. Last time I heard some people mention that by investing in jade rough, each person made several million, and Guo Xuhui and Xiao Li each made hundreds of millions.”
“Hundreds of millions? You must be kidding!
If they made hundreds of millions, why would they still need to work?
They could just go home and relax.”
“That’s what I heard them say.
Guo Xuyang made even more. I heard his villa is filled with jade rough.
He got these from the production source.
His business is growing, and he now has stores in Kyoto and Shanghai.”
