149: Chapter 149 Both Career and Love Suffer Setbacks

After finishing his toast, Tang Hui silently returned to his seat.

Zou Guodong, who couldn't figure out the situation, didn't dare to speak rudely to Luo Wei anymore.

However, it was too late now; he had already successfully offended Luo Wei!

Song Yiqing glared at him unhappily. "Honestly, why do you keep attacking Luo Wei?"

"Luo Wei, let's go somewhere else to catch up."

"Sure!"

Facing Song Yiqing's initiative, Luo Wei naturally wouldn't refuse.

He took out the car model keys and handed them to Song Yiqing.

"I've been drinking, so you drive for me."

"Okay." Song Yiqing obediently took the car keys.

The double R logo on the car model keys was just too obvious!

"Rolls-Royce?" Yang Wei was dumbstruck, forgetting to gnaw on the lobster in his hand.

If he saw a Rolls-Royce on the street, Yang Wei would be very dismissive, thinking the person who bought such a car was a sucker.

However, a classmate beside him suddenly pulling out Rolls-Royce keys made the lobster in his mouth instantly lose its flavor!

"Probably a rental..." Yang Wei couldn't help but grumble, but no one responded.

The couple, Tang Hui and Yang Qian, knew about Luo Wei's ruthless methods.

For Luo Wei to drive a luxury car worth millions was not something worth making a fuss over.

As his ex-girlfriend, Lin Fei was completely stunned; she knew Luo Wei had made it big.

But she never expected that less than half a month after their breakup, Luo Wei would be driving that level of luxury car!

Brother Hao knew very well that Luo Wei hadn't even given face to the local thug, Li Taian!

Luo Wei must have something to rely on; he had surely acquired a massive amount of wealth through some means!

Zou Guodong remained silent at this time, his heart becoming uncomfortable and anxious.

Song Yiqing specifically asking to see Luo Wei meant that Luo Wei was definitely extraordinary!

And yet he had been foolish enough to try and suppress Luo Wei!

Now, he had thoroughly offended Luo Wei!

Not only that, but the goddess Song Yiqing had taken the initiative to invite Luo Wei to leave.

Who knows what might happen between the two of them tonight!

Zou Guodong lowered his head, looking as miserable as if his parents had died.

As Luo Wei passed by him, he reached out and patted his shoulder.

Of course, Luo Wei wasn't comforting him or telling him not to feel bad.

Instead, he conveniently slipped a bad luck talisman into his body!

Zou Guodong had gathered a group of people to try and embarrass him.

If Luo Wei hadn't had some ability...

...he would have become the laughingstock of this gathering!

Since Zou Guodong had made a move against him, Luo Wei naturally had to strike back!

After the bad luck talisman entered Zou Guodong's body, Luo Wei and Song Yiqing walked out of the private room.

Zou Guodong worked within the system; he knew very well the consequences of offending someone with a powerful background!

At this moment, he took a deep breath, ignoring the discomfort in his heart and the fact that his goddess had been snatched away by Luo Wei.

He quickly got up and rushed out of the private room, wanting to apologize to Luo Wei and make up for the mistake he had just made.

However, just as he ran out of the private room, he actually collided with someone in the hallway!

Young and strong as he was, he knocked the person to the ground in a sorry state.

Zou Guodong originally didn't want to pay any attention to that person.

After all, catching up to Luo Wei was more important right now.

But when he looked closer!

He discovered that the person he had knocked over was his immediate Supervisor's Supervisor!

That person was named Song Hongxuan. Usually elegant and easygoing, he was now lying on the ground with a face full of pain.

"Dir—Director Song..." Zou Guodong was terrified and hurriedly helped the elegant middle-aged man up.

Song Hongxuan's face was contorted with pain; he was getting on in years and felt as if he had broken a bone.

"Little Zou, isn't it?" He recognized Zou Guodong at a glance. "What are you doing? So reckless!"

After glaring fiercely at Zou Guodong, he ignored the pain and hurriedly limped forward.

Zou Guodong's heart skipped a beat; he knew he would definitely be targeted in the future and would certainly have his life made difficult!

As long as Song Hongxuan was his Supervisor's Supervisor, he would definitely have no hope of promotion for the rest of his life!

Just as Zou Guodong was secretly alarmed and lost in thought...

...the next scene scared the wits out of him!

He saw Song Hongxuan limping to the elevator entrance.

Despite clearly being in agonizing pain from the fall just now...

...he actually bowed and scraped to greet Luo Wei. This was simply too outrageous!

Zou Guodong was very clear about Song Hongxuan's identity and status!

No matter which school in Honghai City he went to...

...the school principal would immediately come out to welcome him!

And what about Luo Wei? Wasn't he just a corporate slave? Why would Song Hongxuan bow and scrape to him?

The scene before him completely shattered Zou Guodong's worldview!

He had already guessed just now that Luo Wei was not simple!

But who would have thought that Luo Wei's identity was actually this extraordinary!

Luo Wei, who was waiting for the elevator, didn't expect to run into Song Hongxuan here.

Not long ago, Song Hongxuan had given him eighteen houses!

Seeing such a generous benefactor, Luo Wei beamed with joy.

"Director Song is eating here too?"

"Yes. Mr. Luo, which private room were you dining in? Let me settle the bill."

"No need." Luo Wei chuckled. "Do you think I need to spend my own money to eat?"

It seemed someone had treated Luo Wei to a meal; Song Hongxuan scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Director Song, did you fall?"

"You must be in a lot of pain right now. You take the elevator first."

"It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt. You first, please!"

Under Song Hongxuan's strong insistence, Luo Wei led Song Yiqing into the elevator first.

Song Hongxuan smiled until the elevator doors closed, then with a face full of pain, he quickly waved to Zou Guodong. "Come over here and help me!"

Under normal circumstances, Zou Guodong should have stepped forward and quickly helped Song Hongxuan to the hospital.

But in a moment of madness, he felt he should apologize to Luo Wei first!

He abandoned Song Hongxuan and hurried down the stairs.

His actions made Song Hongxuan half-dead with rage!

Song Hongxuan gnashed his teeth, deciding he would definitely make things difficult for Zou Guodong later!

Zou Guodong hurried downstairs and rushed out of the hotel; fortunately, Luo Wei hadn't left yet.

Luo Wei and Song Yiqing had just opened the car door and were about to get in.

Zou Guodong stepped forward and bowed exactly ninety degrees.

"Lo—Luo Wei, I was wrong just now..."

To bow and apologize to another man in front of his goddess...

At this moment, Zou Guodong felt extremely wretched, feeling as if his dignity was being ground into the dirt!

"It's fine!" Luo Wei acted very magnanimously. "We're all classmates. I'll just treat what happened earlier as a joke; don't take it to heart either!"

Zou Guodong knew that Luo Wei was just being polite; Luo Wei would definitely retaliate against him later!

"I... I..." He wanted to say more, but Luo Wei was getting a bit impatient.

"Alright, Song Yiqing and I still have a date."

"Don't be so tactless as to be a third wheel!"

Hearing Luo Wei mention a date, Song Yiqing's face bloomed like a flower, and she was exceptionally happy.

Seeing Song Yiqing so happy, Zou Guodong felt as miserable as if he had eaten a ton of dead flies!

At this moment, he had truly suffered a Waterloo in both his career and his love life!

Watching the two of them drive away, he had to take deep breaths to calm himself down.

He remembered how Luo Wei had swindled five thousand yuan from him before.

Luo Wei must really like money, right?

He hesitated for a moment, planning to spend money to avert disaster.

He transferred all of his savings to Luo Wei in one go.

He hoped to obtain Luo Wei's forgiveness in this way!

A full five hundred thousand; he had saved it for several years, and now he was back to square one overnight.

Fortunately, after he made the transfer, Luo Wei sent back an "OK" emoji.

This matter seemed to have passed just like that.

Zou Guodong breathed a long sigh of relief.

He had no idea...

...that he had a bad luck talisman stuck to him...
