109: Scared trendy guy
“Frank, what’s going on? (german)”
“What exactly did you say? Why did that old man leave? (german)”
Outside the gate.
Watching Old Xiao disappear, the Foreign man couldn’t help but scold the Trendy man with sunglasses.
The weather was hot.
Even under the sunshade.
Fine beads of sweat broke out on his forehead.
Hot gusts of wind constantly assailed them, making it increasingly unbearable. At this moment, he only wanted to quickly enter the factory area, sit in the office, and have a soda with ice.
What concerned him most was his newly acquired girlfriend.
In such weather.
Her neck, back, and chest were constantly seeping sweat.
She was already wearing a relatively tight white dress.
Under the saturation of sweat.
The woman's clothes on her back and chest were almost transparent.
The outlines of those two mountains were already faintly visible.
How could he accept this?
The Trendy man turned his head, feeling wronged, and immediately saw the magnificent scale of the woman under the umbrella.
This action immediately drew the Foreign man’s displeasure:
“Scheiße, what are you looking at! (german)”
“I’m sorry, sir, I didn’t mean to. (german)”
The Trendy man apologized profusely, bowing and bending at the waist.
“Ward, don’t make it difficult for him. What’s the situation now? Why haven’t they opened the door to let us in? (german)”
Just then.
The woman, who had been silent, spoke.
“My dear, wait a moment. I’ll have Frank tell them to open the door right away. (german)”
The Foreign man replied to the woman in a fawning manner.
She nodded faintly, took out two tissues from her twisted handbag, and wiped the sweat from her forehead and neck.
Seeing this.
The Foreign man immediately looked at the Trendy man:
“Frank, now, immediately, right now, make them open the door! (german)”
The Trendy man’s face was full of bitterness:
“Sir, it’s not that I’m not letting them open the door, it’s that they’re not letting us in! (german)”
“Not letting us in? Didn’t you tell them we are Smotan Industries, a Fortune 500 company? (german)”
“I did. But that old man just said that no matter who it is, they need to make an appointment in advance to enter here. (german)”
The Trendy man was very helpless.
The other party was completely different from the Chinese companies he had encountered before.
In the past, those Chinese companies, upon hearing it was Smotan Industries, would soon respectfully invite them in for a discussion.
Even if they weren't discussing business.
The responsible persons of these companies would still enthusiastically entertain them.
But now that they were here.
The other party didn't give them any face at all. What could he do?
“What are you jabbering about here? Hurry up and leave! Are you harboring some malicious plot? Get out! If you don't get out, watch out for my baton, it doesn't have eyes!”
The gate guard, seeing the few people speaking incomprehensible gibberish, looking indignant, and lingering, immediately showed a fierce expression and threatened them.
Old Xiao's attitude earlier had made everything clear.
As a gate guard, he naturally acted according to Old Xiao's attitude.
As for the identity of the other two as foreigners, he couldn't care less.
“Frank, what is he saying? (german)”
The Foreign man frowned and asked.
Although he couldn't understand the guard's words, he could still guess from his facial expression that what he had just said was not kind.
“Sir, he is saying for us to leave here quickly. (german)”
The Trendy man translated with a forced smile.
“Make us leave? What right does he have to make us leave? We haven't even gone in. We can stand wherever we want. Is he going to try and drive us away?! We are foreigners, not stupid natives! (german)”
Hearing the Foreign man’s words, the Trendy man's expression changed.
He was also Chinese.
These words undoubtedly included him as well.
Although he felt aggrieved, he dared not show any dissatisfaction on his face and still had to smile and praise the other party for speaking well.
There was no other way.
He was just a Translator, and the other party was a big client.
If he accidentally offended him, would he still be able to work as a Translator in the future?
The gate guard, seeing that the few people still weren't leaving, immediately stood up, walked out of the guard room, with a baton tucked into his waist, intending to drive them away.
His actions were seen by the Foreign man.
The Foreign man stood still, unmoved, and loudly shouted:
“I insist on standing here and seeing what he wants to do! (german)”
Just as the Trendy man was about to speak a word of caution.
Not far away, a sound of running footsteps suddenly came, from far to near.
“Where are they? Where are the people who cursed the boss?”
“Old Xiao said they are at the main gate.”
“I see them! There are two foreigners. They must be the ones who cursed the boss!”
“Charge! How dare they insult the boss? Today, we must make them reflect on this mistake!”
...
A dense crowd of people, wielding steel pipes and wooden sticks, surged towards the gate with an unstoppable momentum.
The rumbling footsteps gradually drew closer.
Making the three people outside the gate feel a sudden difficulty in breathing.
What’s going on?
What are these people doing?
The Trendy man felt a little scared, forcing himself to stop his calves from trembling.
The Foreign man also noticed that something was wrong at this moment.
These people rushing towards the gate all held weapons, and their faces were indignant, with strong hostility in their eyes when they looked at him.
These people were coming for them!
He came to this conclusion immediately.
At this moment, he really wanted to turn around and run, but when he turned, he saw his new girlfriend looking at him.
His male chauvinism suddenly burned fiercely at this moment.
“No, I can't just run away like this. If I run away, how will Allie see me? She will definitely think I am a man without courage. I can't leave!”
The Foreign man made up his mind, immediately shielded the woman behind him, and faced the crowd at the gate.
At this moment.
The group of employees, already brandishing their weapons, had rushed to the gate.
But they were stopped by the gate.
“Old Zhang, open the door quickly! We need to go out and teach these guys a lesson.”
“These people actually dare to curse the boss, they’re really looking for death!”
“If I don't beat these few people until they shit themselves today, I'm not an employee here!”
Everyone shouted.
Old Zhang, who was the gate guard, was utterly bewildered at this moment.
Before he could figure out the situation, someone had already rushed into the guard room and opened the gate.
In an instant.
Everyone immediately surrounded the three people outside the gate.
The Trendy man’s calves could no longer hold back, trembling non-stop, his face full of panic.
Facing the fierce gaze of the crowd.
At this moment.
The Foreign man finally felt a little panicked.
Before the three could speak, an employee with a thuggish look on his face stared at the Foreign man and arrogantly asked:
“You’re the one who dared to curse the boss, you motherfucker?!”
He hadn't forgotten what Old Xiao had said, that it was the foreigner who cursed the boss.
As this question was asked.
The eyes of all the employees immediately became fierce, as if they were about to erupt at any moment, swinging the weapons in their hands to smash people.
The Foreign man couldn't understand what the other party was saying.
But he could grasp the general meaning of the words from the other party's eyes, which immediately scared his heart into a continuous pounding.
His originally arrogant demeanor was completely gone at this moment.
