Chapter 328 The Golden Wine Cup Is No Need

Damn it...

He truly didn't expect that while trying to pick up girls in little Yebai, something like this would actually happen.

He was invincible in JZH, and now, being blocked by Zheng Qian time and time again, his anger flared up instantly.

"What's wrong? Wasn't it you who said you were embarrassed just a moment ago?"

Zheng Qian blocked Xia Xixi and Cui Ziqing behind him, looking at Lu Zhe and Zhou Shaoqi with a half-smile.

Zhou Shaoqi laughed out of extreme anger.

"Kid, we gave you face just now by calling you Young Master Zheng, and you actually think you're a real young master? Backwater towns breed unruly people. In a tiny place like Yebai, are you really just sitting in a well looking at the sky? You don't take us businessmen seriously?"

"Believe it or not, as long as I use a little bit of leverage, I can make sure your wine doesn't sell at all?"

"I'll make sure you wasted your trip today!"

Zhou Shaoqi was determined to teach Zheng Qian a lesson.

He had already planned it out in his mind, ready to immediately mobilize his social circle and make sure none of the suppliers present signed a contract with Xunnidi. No, he would even go so far as to ensure this shitty wine couldn't even leave Yebai City!

"Oh? Really? You're so impressive, I'm so scared."

"What's the name of your company?"

Zheng Qian curled his lips; anyone could hear the mockery in his tone.

Suddenly, he changed the subject; he actually had the thought of simply acquiring Zhou Shaoqi's company.

Anyway, now that he had over 200 billion in capital in his hands, his self-confidence was overflowing, and he wanted to clash with anyone.

Buying it would just be considered expanding his sales channels, and it would probably cost a few tens of millions at most.

It wouldn't even be a fraction of what was on his bank card.

"What the f..."

"I believe all the Sommeliers have their thoughts now. Shortly, we will announce the winner of this [Golden Goblet] award! Which will title our wine tasting event! Before the final vote, we would like to invite Mr. Lu Zhe to provide a brief review!"

"Let's give a round of applause for Mr. Lu!"

Just as Zhou Shaoqi was about to explode, he heard the host calling for Lu Zhe.

The latter smiled and nodded, whispering as he passed by, "Don't worry, Xunnidi will have its reputation ruined in Binjiang today. Let this kid know exactly what the consequences are for angering us young masters from JZH."

"Hmph!"

Zhou Shaoqi let out a heavy cold snort and carried his wine glass off to another area.

[Favorability - 5]

[Favorability - 5]

[Favorability - 10]

Huh?

In the moment Zheng Qian was stunned, he saw the Favorability above the heads of both Xia Xixi and Cui Ziqing constantly decreasing.

What the f...

I was worried about you being taken advantage of by lechers and stepped in to shield you, and yet my Favorability decreased?

However, Zheng Qian thought about it, and this wasn't necessarily a bad thing. The Favorability of the girls around him was generally high, which was perfect for him to take advantage of to grind out some serious cash flow.

Cui Ziqing knew that Lu Zhe must have a big problem with Zheng Qian, and she feared this speech would be very detrimental to Xunnidi.

So, she hurriedly took out her phone and tried to send some WeChat messages to calm him down.

But Lu Zhe walked straight toward the stage, casually silencing his phone, with no intention of looking at it at all.

She couldn't help but roll her eyes hard, furious.

That hateful Zheng Qian!

"Everyone, I believe everyone here shares the same feeling as me today, and that is that this trip was worth it."

"Having the honor to be among the first to taste these new wine varieties before they hit the market is truly a privilege! Thank you to the organizers for the kind invitation. Since I've been asked to come up here, I'll say a few words. I believe everyone feels the same as I do, that Xunnidi's taste is not bad..."

Seeing that Lu Zhe didn't directly disparage Xunnidi, Cui Ziqing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

She patted her chest, looking gratefully at Lu Zhe.

This action only made Zhou Shaoqi drool even more. Looking at the cold and beautiful Xia Xixi not far away, it felt as if a hundred ants were crawling in his heart.

If it wasn't for that damn Zheng Qian, they might have already started rolling in the sheets by now!

Lu Zhe inadvertently glanced at Cui Ziqing, and his heart almost skipped a beat.

Now, looking at them from the stage, from above, it was quite a different view.

But the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, and he sneered inwardly. Since he knew Cui Ziqing and the others cared so much, they would be easier to manipulate.

"But as I tasted the other new wine varieties, I discovered that there were even bigger surprises to come..."

Suddenly, he changed his tone and began to vigorously praise another brand of wine.

The person in charge of this brand was instantly overjoyed.

She already knew Lu Zhe, and today she had dressed up extravagantly, ready to sacrifice her body.

But she couldn't compete with Cui Ziqing's stunning beauty. Seeing that Lu Zhe's mind was entirely on Cui Ziqing, she didn't dare to strike up a conversation at all.

But she never expected that happiness would come so suddenly.

After hearing just a few words, Zheng Qian knew what was going on.

"Secretary Xia, regarding the arrangements for Xunnidi, I already have a plan, you don't need to follow up for now."

"It's getting late, no need for you to go to the company, just go home and rest. When I arrive tomorrow, I'll find you separately to discuss what's next."

In fact, ever since returning from Jiangnan, Zheng Qian had been considering the issue of his next commercial layout.

The Five Shipping Alliance, originally led by Asia Shipping, was already falling apart, and the Qijinyi Alliance was left with only Yuehua Shipping, barely holding on and gasping for breath.

In the shipping industry, his enemies had instantly been reduced by more than half.

Just in time, he had a more aggressive idea taking advantage of this opportunity.

"Alright, President Zheng."

Xia Xixi frowned slightly and answered mechanically.

Zheng Qian knew she was throwing a tantrum at him, and her Favorability dropped again for a while.

"Of course, I've seen your work performance during this time. This crappy Golden Goblet thing, it's not worth having anyway. Right, if you're free tomorrow, help me book two plane tickets to Subei."

Two tickets?

Is he going to take me to Subei?

Ever since Song Yaxian returned with Zheng Qian from Jiangnan, she felt that the two of them had some "issues".

Actually, she didn't have any strange thoughts about Zheng Qian; it was just that because her Favorability had risen, she inevitably felt some reliance on him.

Song Yaxian, who used to be cold towards Zheng Qian, would sometimes show the expressions of a little woman.

Are they...

Hmm... Zheng Qian wants to take me to Subei, should I book one hotel room or two... Should I ask him...

Zheng Qian: ???

I only said that one sentence, what is Xia Xixi thinking about?

"Ahem... well, don't buy the tickets yet. Just keep an eye on the recent flights for me; I might leave very soon, we'll talk about it then. Also, during this time, I have other things for you to do, it's about..."

There's something else?

So he's not taking me to Subei?

"Got it!"

Xia Xixi rolled her eyes at herself helplessly in her heart, speechless. What on earth was I expecting!

Seriously, especially with a scumbag like Zheng Qian. Last time I went on a business trip with him, he and Xu Shuyun...

He must have made a move on Song Yaxian too!

If I get the chance, I must advise her properly; she can't have any illusions about such a player.

Zheng Qian: ???

Watching Xia Xixi leave in a huff, he couldn't help but feel bewildered.
