She took the lead and walked in with Li Lan following closely behind. They passed through the lobby into the crowded bar.
A male waiter came over. He first looked at Sang Chunling, then at Wang Ou, who was behind her, and asked with a smile, "Sister Ling, are you all together?"
Wang Ou asked curiously, "Sister Ling, you're a regular here too. I've never seen you before."
The bar was too noisy, and Sang Chunling could only hear the gist of it. She smiled at Wang Ou and said to the waiter, "Find a private room, a bigger one."
The waiter made a gesture, and everyone followed him to the second floor.
As soon as they entered the second floor, people stood up and greeted Sang Chunling from time to time. Sang Chunling just smiled, waved, or nodded. She didn't even stop. Hu Ling, who was behind her, was pulled by someone to talk to her. She didn't know what to do.
A few minutes after he sat down, the waiter served beer and red wine.
Li Lan didn't drink the red wine. Instead, he picked up an open bottle of beer and clinked glasses with Wang Ou.
Wang Ou did not pay much attention to Li Lan. It was only because he was Jiang Xingyuan's friend that she did not want to embarrass herself. However, after meeting Sang Chunling, she could not help but think more highly of him. Hence, she deliberately leaned over and said to Li Lan, "I'll drink it. You can drink as much as you want."
As Li Lan drank, he observed the bottle in her hand. Seeing that she was serious, he also increased his speed. After he finished, he put the empty bottle on the table.
Wang Ou let out a long sigh and put the bottle on the table.
Sang Chunling patted her shoulder and said with a smile, "Sister, you can do it. Come, Big Sis will drink with you."
After saying that, he finished a bottle in one go.
"Sis, you need to let me catch my breath." Wang Ou took a deep breath and gulped down the rest of the bottle.
Li Lan smiled and said, "Take a break. You don't have to drink so quickly."
Sang Chunling said, "Sister, you're an honest person. If you need anything in the future, just let me know."
When he turned to look at Li Lan, he saw Li Lan take out a cigarette and put it in his mouth. He picked up the lighter on the table and lit it up.
Some of the people in the private rooms next to them found an excuse to watch the performance on the dance floor downstairs. They leaned on the railing and glanced over from time to time. When they saw Sang Chunling lighting a cigarette for someone, their eyes almost popped out!
Who was Sang Chunling?
Who am I, Sang Chunling!
There was no one in the industry who didn't know him!
That was not an ordinary kind of arrogance. If you greeted her, she would roll her eyes at you when she was happy. Those who were about the same, she would nod and smile at you. As for those who could make her stop and say a few words, they were evenly matched!
But what was the background of the young man in front of her who could make her light a cigarette?
Everyone was dumbfounded!
Wang Ou said, "The beer here is too bland, drinking too much of it is no different from drinking water."
Sang Chunling turned her head again and gave her a brief bump. She then turned to look at Li Lan. "I'm just curious. I've given you my number for so many years, but you've never called me. Why did you remember to call me today?"
Although they were from the same village, in terms of closeness, she still couldn't compare to the Pan Family, the Yang Family, Pan Song, Chen Dadi, Wu Shuping, and the others.
Moreover, he only looked for her alone, which made her very suspicious.
Li Lan pursed his lips in Jiang Xingyuan's direction and said, "That's my classmate. I want to introduce him to you and see if there's a chance for you to work together."
Sang Chunling looked at Jiang Xingyuan. Jiang Xingyuan seemed to feel her gaze and immediately sat up straight.
"What do you do?" Sang Chunling asked.
Li Lan said, "My family makes xylitol. I'm working alone now, making chewing gum. Because I don't have much experience, I don't know how to promote it, so it's a little difficult for me to get into the supermarket."
Sang Chunling asked, "How's his relationship with you?"
Li Lan said, "He's my roommate. If our relationship wasn't good, do you think I would bring him here to talk to you about this?"
He took out a piece of chewing gum from his pocket and handed it to her.
Sang Chunling opened it and stuffed it into her mouth to taste it. She hesitated for a moment and then said, "How do I put it? The taste is a little bad. The essence is strong and not chewy. It'll probably be a little difficult if we follow the normal procedure. "
Li Lan laughed. "What if we improve it?"
Sang Chunling said, "Then you can call him over."
Li Lan walked over to Jiang Xingyuan and sat down. He put his arm around his shoulder and whispered a few words into his ear. He nodded repeatedly.
Then, he stood up with Li Lan and sat down next to Sang Chunling. He raised his glass and smiled. "Sister Ling, let me give you a toast."
Sang Chunling also poured the wine from the bottle into her glass and smiled. "We're on the same side, so you don't have to be so polite. I'll be straightforward. I often eat chewing gum, and your taste is a lot worse. It's fine to put it in the snack bar at the school entrance to coax the kids. Even if I give you the shelf space, I don't have the final say in the supermarket. You have to follow the supermarket rules. If you can't sell it in the supermarket, you can't make up for the entry fees, terminal fees, stacking fees, DM fees, annual festival fees, and shop celebration fees, right? "
Jiang Xingyuan didn't expect her to be so straightforward. He looked embarrassed and smiled. "Simply put, chewing gum is made from sugar, colloids, sweeteners, food coloring, and other additives.
The main cost is the gum. If we use high-quality gum, it's not much different from high-end brands.
Sister Ling, how about this? When I go back, I'll make more samples and you can try it. If you think it's good enough, we can talk in detail? "
Sang Chunling nodded and raised her glass. "Okay, I'll leave you my number. Call me if you need anything."
"Thank you, Sister Ling, for giving me this opportunity." Jiang Xingyuan stood up happily, raised his glass, and drank it in one gulp. After chatting with Li Lan for a while, he walked to the side and continued clinking glasses with Wang Kun, Du Shixin, and the others.
Sang Chunling filled Li Lan's glass and smiled. "Let's have a toast too."
Li Lan raised his glass. "I'll have to trouble you then."
Sang Chunling hugged his shoulder and whispered, "Do you have a girlfriend? Let me introduce you to one. "
Li Lan glanced at her disdainfully and said, "You should solve your own problems first before worrying about me."
Sang Chunling pinched his lower back and said snappily, "My good intentions are treated as ill-intent. As for me, I just don't want to make do. Believe it or not, when I casually call out, there will be a queue."
As she spoke, her eyes drifted to the other side. Hu Ling was in the corner of another private room. She was holding onto the partition and vomiting into the trash can. There were a few men beside her.
"Can you do it?"
"Yeah, if you can't, I'll send you home."
"You've only had two glasses."
“.....”
Sang Chunling gestured for Li Lan to wait for a while. She pushed the men away one by one, pulled Hu Ling over, and glared at them before returning to her private room.
Then she said unhappily, "If you know they're up to no good, don't go and join in the fun."
Hu Ling picked up the green tea on the table, took a big gulp, and then spat it into the trash can. She said bitterly, "Sister, do you think I'm like you? Do you think I can refuse?"
Sang Chunling had a family background and status. As for Hu Ling, although she was good friends with Sang Chunling, her family's business was much worse. She still had to rely on Sang Chunling for many things.
However, that did not mean that she could use Sang Chunling to intimidate others. Sang Chunling could support her, but she would never fall out with others because of her!
She knew this very well!
