The banquet was held on the lawn in front of the villa. It was brightly decorated with lanterns and streamers, and the long tables were filled with all kinds of wine, dishes, and fruits. Famous men and beautiful women of the upper class shuttled back and forth, forming a small circle as they chatted and laughed. It was a very lively scene. A white piano stood in front of the door, and the music coming from it made the whole banquet seem especially elegant.
Ye Xuan declined Will Jonggris's invitation to introduce him to some of the upper class in Korea. He sipped a glass of wine that was said to be 89 Lafite by himself, and from time to time, he would pick a few mouthfuls of something that looked good on the table, such as the foie gras in front of him, and the Angler fish liver that he had just eaten.
Although it was a private banquet, and the environment was relatively relaxed, Ye Xuan was the only one who wandered around in casual clothes. Although some people looked at him strangely, most people looked at him curiously. There were no secrets in this small circle. The news that this young man had received Will Jonggris's hospitality had already spread here. Everyone wanted to know the identity of this mysterious young man who had suddenly appeared, but it seemed that no one in the entire venue knew. Those who were familiar with Will Jonggris went to ask him, but only got a mysterious smile in return, which made these people look at Ye Xuan even more fervently.
"Kei Kiri Steak is indeed the best beef produced in the past 400 years by the Japanese royal family. It tastes really good!" A middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses said with a smile, holding a glass of wine in his hand.
"Well, it's really not bad!" After Ye Xuan ate the steak in his mouth, he looked up at the middle-aged man who had struck up a conversation with him, and nodded with a smile.
"I'm Zheng Jinyang!" The middle-aged man smiled at Ye Xuan, raised the glass in his hand, and introduced himself with a smile.
Ye Xuan also raised his glass in Zheng Jinyang's direction. He smiled and said, "Hello, Mr. Zheng. My name is Ye Xuan! "
"Hello, Mr Ye!" A glint flashed in Zheng Jinyang's eyes. He pondered for a while, trying to figure out which family in Korea had the surname Ye. However, after thinking for a long time, he couldn't think of anything. Suddenly, he thought of a possibility and said, "Mr. Ye doesn't seem to be a Korean, right?"
"Oh? How could Mr. Zheng tell? Could it be that my Korean is not up to par? "Ye Xuan asked with interest.
Seeing that Ye Xuan didn't deny it, Zheng Jinyang knew that it was as he expected. Of course, he couldn't say that he guessed that Ye Xuan wasn't Korean because he couldn't think of any family with the surname Ye in Korea. Instead, he smiled and said, "No, Mr. Ye's Korean is very fluent. If you only listen to Mr. Ye's words, you will feel like you were born and raised in Seoul. However, if you observe carefully, Mr. Ye's tone and actions are somewhat different from the people of the Republic of Korea. Generally, when facing an elder, the people of the Republic of Korea will use honorifics. "
"I see!" Hearing Zheng Jinyang's words, Ye Xuan nodded with a smile.
Seeing that Ye Xuan only nodded with a smile and didn't reveal his nationality, Zheng Jinyang's eyes lit up. However, he didn't show it on his face. He smiled and said, "May I know where Mr. Ye is working? Oh, sorry for my rudeness. Let me introduce myself first. This humble one is currently the Head of Xingya Marine's Shipping Department. Please advise me! "
As he spoke. Zheng Jinyang put the glass aside and took out an exquisite name card, handing it to Ye Xuan with both hands.
Seeing that Zheng Jinyang was so serious and that the two of them were chatting amiably, Ye Xuan didn't want to offend Zheng Jinyang. He also put the glass aside and took Zheng Jinyang's name card with both hands. He glanced at the name card and put it away. Then, he said modestly, "I'm sorry, Head Zheng. I didn't bring my name card. I'm only running a small teahouse in Myeongdong."
"It's okay, it's okay. So Mr. Ye is already the president at such a young age. You're really young and promising!" Although Zheng Jinyang said so, he didn't really believe Ye Xuan's words. A president of a small teahouse could be received so warmly by Will Jonggris. Who was he kidding?
This sentence was a little fake. Even Ye Xuan could see the dissatisfaction in Zheng Jinyang's eyes. However, Ye Xuan didn't care. He smiled and nodded at Zheng Jinyang. "I'm sorry, Head Zheng. I have something to do. Excuse me!"
"Go ahead, Mr. Ye!" Seeing that Ye Xuan didn't want to continue chatting with him, Zheng Jinyang felt a little angry that he didn't get anything out of him after handing over his name card. He nodded at Ye Xuan and walked to the side with his glass.
Seeing that Zheng Jinyang had left, Ye Xuan smiled faintly. He didn't take this matter to heart. He finished the wine in his glass and walked in the direction of the washroom.
"How is it, Old Zheng? Did you find out anything?" Zheng Jinyang walked back to his original circle. A middle-aged man with a big belly smiled and asked. The people beside him also listened attentively. Obviously, they were very interested in this mysterious young man who suddenly appeared.
"Director Jin, you must be joking. You know that I like to make friends. I just went to chat with you when I bumped into you. I didn't ask anything." Zheng Jinyang was not a fool to be able to become the director of a large company. He casually rejected President Jin's words.
Ignoring the curious people who were trying to get information from Zheng Jinyang, Ye Xuan walked into the washroom to solve his personal problem. When he washed his hands and walked out of the washroom, he suddenly saw a small corner not far from the opposite women's washroom. Four men were surrounding two long-haired girls. It seemed that they were putting on a very melodramatic show of a young thug teasing the girls.
Seeing this scene, Ye Xuan couldn't help but frown. This was the private reception of Will Jonggris, the head of Goldman Sachs Law Firm in Korea. Doing such a thing at such a reception was very disrespectful to the host. Could it be that these people could ignore Will Jonggris?
Because the two long-haired girls had their backs to Ye Xuan, Ye Xuan couldn't see their faces without using his telekinesis. However, two of the four men saw Ye Xuan, but when they saw that Ye Xuan was a stranger, they didn't care and continued with their business.
"Hehe! Xu Xian, let's see where you can run this time. If you still don't agree to go out with me today, don't blame me for using force! " A man with a fair and tender face and a bit of a trap looked at the girl in front of him who was like a deer being surrounded. He smiled sinisterly and reached out to touch the girl's face in front of him.
