Fatty Feng noticed that Ye Chen was not there.
The smile on Fatty Feng's face turned cold. "Where's Mr. Ye?"
"Which Mr. Ye?" Zhou Zheng's heart skipped a beat. He had a bad feeling about this.
The rest had a change of expression.
Could Mr. Ye be Ye Chen?
Fatty Feng frowned and was rather impatient. "Which Mr. Ye could it be? Of course, it's that Mr. Ye who was at the gathering with you guys earlier!"
There was an uproar in the private room.
Although they knew that Ye Chen's identity was extraordinary, they did not expect the Auspicious Manor's person-in-charge to welcome him personally.
"H-he's gone!"
Zhou Zheng's scalp tingled.
'Ye Chen!
Who exactly are you?!
First, he drove a Lamborghini, and now the Auspicious Manor's person-in-charge, Manager Feng, is here to welcome him personally.
"He's gone?"
Fatty Feng seemed rather disappointed. He shook his head and turned around to leave.
Just when he turned around, Fang Lin, who was standing aside, could not help but ask, "Zhou Zheng, didn't you say that Manager Feng knows you? Didn't you say that the two bottles of wine were given to you by Manager Feng? "
Zhou Zheng was furious to hear that.
'Since when did I say that Manager Feng knows me? 'As for the two bottles of 1982 Lafite, that's just your imagination, alright?
I won't admit it! '
Fang Lin's voice was not loud, but Fatty Feng, who was walking to the door, heard her.
Fatty Feng turned his head and glanced at the people. He scoffed, "Don't tell me you guys thought that the wine was given to you guys earlier?"
Since he managed to get to where he was, it was only natural that he learned to read people's expressions and treat them well. Within a few minutes, he figured out why Ye Chen left.
The people dared not even breathe loudly.
Fatty Feng sneered again, "Hehe, to put it bluntly, if it wasn't for Mr. Ye, everyone here is trash in my eyes!"
If not for Mr. Ye, do you guys think that I, Feng, would have given you guys the wine and come here personally? "
He left the private room without hesitation after he was done speaking.
The people faintly heard a voice coming from outside, "Get someone to guard the door. Get them to pay for the two bottles of 1982 Lafite. They're not allowed to leave until they pay!"
…
Dead silence filled the private room. The people could not speak for a long time. They felt that they had never been as excited as today.
Other than regret, they really couldn't find any other words to describe their current feelings.
After a while, Fang Lin glared at Zhou Zheng fiercely. "Zhou Zheng, look at what you've done. If it weren't for you, how could this have happened?"
"That's right. I didn't say anything to Ye Chen. This has nothing to do with me. I don't care about the two 1982 Lafite!" Xie Gang said.
It was 1982 Lafite. Just the bottle alone could sell for more than 4,000 yuan, and a bottle of wine cost more than 100,000 yuan. Two bottles added together was more than a year of his salary.
Instantly, the atmosphere changed. Everyone began to criticize the class reunion's organizer, Zhou Zheng.
Zhou Zheng was so angry that he laughed. "Blame me? Don't you have any shame? Fang Lin, have you not mocked Ye Chen enough? And you, Xie Gang, if I'm not mistaken, Ye Chen helped you a lot when you were in university. I can't believe you asked him to be a typist in your company. He even paid you 2,000 yuan a month. What the f * ck? "
Seeing that everyone was about to start arguing, Huang Liang suddenly stopped them and said, "Alright, it has already happened. What's the use of complaining now? Let's just chip in and pay for the two 1982 Lafite. "
"You're making it sound nice. Two bottles cost more than 200,000 yuan. There are only a dozen of us here, and we're asking each of us to fork out 20,000 yuan?" A girl who was not well-off scoffed.
"That's enough!"
Zhou Zheng shouted, "I'll leave with this money, won't I? I'll borrow some from Yang Tian when he gets here later. "
"That's the only thing we can do. However, will Yang Tian lend you 200,000 yuan?" Xie Gang said after a sigh.
He was filled with regret. Why was there such a huge difference between people? Director Feng had given Ye Chen a bottle of wine that cost hundreds of thousands of yuan. If it were them, they would have asked for money and were not allowed to leave.
"He will."
Zhou Zheng nodded solemnly.
Yang Tian had said that he would make him the sales supervisor in his company under the condition that the chairman agreed with him. He was not worried at all because he had never offended the chairman.
Just when they were talking, someone knocked on the private room's door.
Yang Tian, who was tall and handsome in a suit and leather shoes, walked in. He said while laughing out loud, "Guys, I'm sorry. I've just finished a meeting and there was a traffic jam. I'm late."
"Oh, Director Yang, you're finally here."
Zhou Zheng was elated. He went to greet Yang Tian immediately. The unhappiness that he had because of Ye Chen was gone.
The rest were almost the same. They stood up one after another with smiles on their faces. They addressed him as Director Yang in an extremely affectionate manner.
Yang Tian did not know whether to laugh or to cry. He did not put on any airs at all. "We're classmates. Cut the formalities."
As soon as he sat down, a single girl sat next to him and said flirtatiously, "Director Yang, it's been a few years since we last met. You're getting more and more handsome. Do you still remember me?"
"Your name is Bai Jie, right? I remember you. You were the one who sat in front of me back then. I burned your hair with a match, "Yang Tian said with a smile filled with nostalgia.
The bunch of people were fighting to introduce themselves to Yang Tian. They could not stop reminding him of their existence.
After all, they had offended a person who drove a Lamborghini. They could not afford to offend a second person who drove a Bentley and a Mulsanne.
Yang Tian only said after they introduced themselves, "Eh, where's Ye Chen? I told him before. Did I forget? "
Everyone's expression froze upon hearing that.
They looked unnatural. They thought to themselves, 'Could Yang Tian have talked to Ye Chen before?'
"Erm, Ye Chen was here. He just left," someone said weakly.
"He left?"
Yang Tian frowned and took out his phone to call Ye Chen. He scolded jokingly, "Old Ye, what's going on?"
"You guys go ahead with the gathering. I'm out of your league," Ye Chen was driving. He hung up the phone after saying that in a hurry.
Yang Tian looked confused. He then looked at Zhou Zheng and said, "Zhou Zheng, what exactly happened? Why did Ye Chen leave earlier? "
Although he had no idea what happened, he could tell that Ye Chen's tone was not nice.
Zhou Zheng stammered and told Yang Tian what happened while avoiding the important details.
Yang Tian roughly figured out what had happened after listening to him. He glanced at the people and scoffed, "I understand now. Ye Chen came to the gathering in a low profile. You guys thought that he wasn't doing well, so you guys took advantage of him, right?"
"Director Yang, it's not like that …" Zhou Zheng's expression changed and he broke out in cold sweat.
"Shut your f * cking mouth!"
Yang Tian cursed. "Do you really think I'm an idiot? Haha, I can't believe that my classmate of four years has become so worthless in your eyes. Humans are so realistic! "
Yang Tian looked at Zhou Zheng coldly as he spoke to this point. "Zhou Zheng, didn't you want to work at my company? I'm not afraid to tell you that Ye Chen is the company's director. He appointed me, the deputy director. "
"What? He's the company's director? "Zhou Zheng fell onto the ground as if he had been struck by lightning.
The rest were dumbstruck.
It turned out that they had given up on what was close at hand for what was far away. The company's director was right before them, but they were sucking up to Yang Tian, their underling …
"Not only is Ye Chen the company's director, but he also owns a villa that costs over 50 million yuan. Excluding the company's shares, his personal assets are billions of yuan. Haha, the assets that you guys are so proud of are worthless to him!"
Plop!
Xie Gang fell onto the ground as well. He said while looking pale, "Yang Tian, Director Yang, Brother Tian, it's our fault. Is there any way we can save this?"
"Save my a * s. Everything that I, Yang Tian, own now was given to him by Ye Chen, including my life."
"Friendship? Ptui! "
Yang Tian glanced at the people coldly and eventually had his eyes on Zhou Zheng. "You're such a snob, and you want to work for me? Go eat sh * t! "
After saying this, he left the Blessing-Gathering Manor without looking back. Once again, he had a new understanding of the human heart.
As soon as he left, Fang Lin took out 20,000 yuan and tossed it on the table. She said without even turning her head, "Take this as payment for the bill."
The rest followed suit and left after putting down the money. Those who did not bring cash transferred it to Zhou Zheng's card directly.
Within the blink of an eye, the crowded private room was empty. Zhou Zheng fell onto the ground, looking a little absent-minded.
At that moment, his phone vibrated. He opened it immediately and received a series of messages.
"Yang Tian has left the group!"
"Fang Lin has left the group!"
"Xie Gang has left the group!"
"Huang Liang has left the group!"
"Bai Jie has left the group!"
"…"
Zhou Zheng was speechless as he held his phone.
In less than a minute, all 20 of his classmates had left the group. Oh, wait, only he, the group leader, was left.
