Shaking her head with a face full of sarcasm, Meng Zhenzhen sneered, "Then youâre really blind! Look at me, the husband I chose is so great!"
Hearing Meng Zhenzhen mention that Ling Youcai, who had previously been staring at her intently, a hint of disgust flashed in Song Yalingâs eyes.
Soon, with a look of disdain, Song Yaling said, "Thatâs what you think!"
"Itâs not what I think, itâs the truth! What? Do you think your farmer boyfriend is better than my husband?"
Song Yaling glanced at her provocatively and said decisively, "Of course!"
"Since you say so, then..."
Before she could finish, Meng Zhenzhen was cut off.
Because at this moment, she heard her husband speaking absolutely excitedly.
"What? Youâre coming over now? Okay, okay, okay, Iâm at home, youâre welcome to come!"
"Husband, whoâs coming over?"
Seeing her husband Ling Youcai rubbing his hands with excitement, Meng Zhenzhen asked curiously.
At this moment, she was really curious...
Because she hadnât seen her husband this excited for a long time...
She knew it must be an influential figure, otherwise, he wouldnât be this excited.
Upon hearing Meng Zhenzhenâs question, many people standing by the Gazebo also looked at Ling Youcai, who stood not far away with an excited face, and from his expression, they could tell he was particularly excited.
Ling Youcai glanced at Meng Zhenzhen and quickly said, "Do you remember that guy called Guo Meng I mentioned to you before?"
Thinking seriously, Meng Zhenzhenâs eyes suddenly lit up, "Guo Meng? Oh! I remember, heâs one of the biggest liquor distributors around here, right?"
"Thatâs right! Itâs him! Iâve always wanted to cooperate with him on liquor sales, but he never gave me the chance. Now, he wants to talk to me, isnât that something worth being happy about?"
"Of course it is! But why did he suddenly change his mind?"
Excited, Meng Zhenzhen took a deep breath and quickly asked the question on her mind...
Hearing Meng Zhenzhenâs inquiry, Ling Youcai thought for a moment and said somewhat uncertainly, "I heard that heâs planning to expand his warehouse but is a bit short on cash, so he wants me to partner with him!"
Ling Youcai thought that no matter what the reason, as long as he was involved, it was a good thing!
Because he had a big business...
So by cooperating with him, he could really make a lot more money...
Hearing Ling Youcaiâs vague explanation, Meng Zhenzhen smiled sweetly and said, "Good news, good news, this is great news!"
"Of course it is! Heâll be here soon! So, we can finalize the cooperation shortly!"
Saying this, Ling Youcai looked at everyone around and apologized slightly, "Everyone, Iâm really sorry! We need to temporarily pause our gathering. Once Iâve discussed everything with Guo Meng, we can continue to enjoy ourselves!"
"No problem!"
"Exactly! Business comes first!"
Hearing Ling Youcaiâs words, everyone quickly waved their hands.
Hu Xiaobei and Song Yaling exchanged a glance...
Both saw the same meaning in each otherâs eyes.
Then, both of them immediately said, "We have things to do, weâll be leaving first!"
To be honest, both Hu Xiaobei and Song Yaling had wanted to leave earlier.
Because this gathering had really turned sour.
Everyone had lost the innocence of their school days...
Instead, there was a lot of social snobbery...
This made Song Yaling feel particularly unfamiliar.
So it seemed better to just leave...
Hearing Hu Xiaobei and Song Yalingâs words, Meng Zhenzhen frowned and said, "What do you mean by that? My husband is about to negotiate a business deal, and you want to leave? Shouldnât you stay and offer support?"
"Well..."
Hu Xiaobei and Song Yaling were left speechless by Meng Zhenzhenâs words...
Realizing she might have been a bit demanding, Meng Zhenzhen snorted, "Anyway, stay now and leave after everythingâs done!"
"Alright!"
Exchanging another glance, Hu Xiaobei and Song Yaling decided not to leave but instead resumed sipping their red wine.
...
"Yaling used to be such a nice girl!"
"Yeah! Sheâs changed now, has no manners at all!"
"Indeed!"
Seeing Hu Xiaobei and Song Yaling drinking red wine as if no one else was around, many people whispered among themselves...
At this moment, they really felt that Song Yaling and Hu Xiaobei were ungrateful...
In their view, this situation was undoubtedly because of Hu Xiaobei.
Because he was just a farmer...
So he couldnât consider things thoroughly.
...
"Sister Song, donât attend such gatherings anymore in the future!"
"Hmm, I certainly wonât participate again!"
Song Yaling nodded lightly...
This incident made her realize how people can change...
So she would never be interested in attending such meaningless gatherings again.
Upon hearing Song Yalingâs response, Hu Xiaobei knew she truly understood the treachery of peopleâs hearts now.
Just as he was about to say something more, Hu Xiaobei heard the sound of urgent brakes.
Hu Xiaobei knew it should be the Guo Meng they mentioned.
Turning his head, Hu Xiaobei saw a middle-aged man with a square face getting out of the car...
"This person looks somewhat familiar!"
Hu Xiaobei muttered to himself...
Soon, Hu Xiaobei realized why he felt it was familiar.
Because he had met him before at a liquor exhibition, where he had ordered a lot of liquor from him.
"Meeting him again! It seems we really are quite fated to cross paths!"
Hu Xiaobei muttered to himself...
While Hu Xiaobei was muttering, Ling Youcai, full of excitement, quickly stepped forward.
Meng Zhenzhen noticed this scene and took a deep breath!
Soon, she looked at Hu Xiaobei and said, "Donât bother looking. People at this level have nothing to do with you. Just focus on farming your own land!"
Upon hearing such sharp words, Hu Xiaobei didnât respond, simply took another sip of red wine calmly...
"Letting him drink such high-grade red wine is really wasting a treasure!"
Seeing Hu Xiaobei take another sip of that expensive red wine, she quickly muttered in frustration...
While she was muttering, Ling Youcai and Guo Meng shook hands.
"Boss Guo! Finally, we meet! Iâm so delighted to see you!"
Hearing such enthusiastic words, Guo Meng waved his hand and replied, "Haha, Boss Ling, youâre too kind!"
Seeing him wave, Ling Youcai smiled and continued solemnly, "Iâm telling the truth. Your liquor business is really getting better, so I truly admire you!"
Lightly smiling, Guo Meng excitedly shared his vision for the future, "Itâs alright! By the way, I just got a fantastic new liquor, and soon its market share will surely rise!"
"New liquor? What is it? I havenât heard of it!"
Seeing Ling Youcaiâs doubtful look, Guo Meng laughed and said, "Of course you havenât heard of it, only industry insiders know it just now because itâs a newly established liquor brand."
"Whatâs it called?"
"Xiaobei Brand! It was just created by Master Xiaobei of Xiaohe Village. Although itâs a new brand, the taste is amazing, so itâll quickly gain dominion, and by then, youâll definitely have heard of it!"
"Xiaobei Brand?"
"Yes! Xiaobei Brand!"
Getting a confirmed answer, Ling Youcai muttered to himself, "Why does this name sound kind of familiar?"
"Familiar? The liquorâs name?"
"Yes! This liquorâs name sounds similar to someone I heard of before!"
At this point, he quickly turned his head to look at Hu Xiaobei...
Then, Ling Youcai pointed at Hu Xiaobei and said with a beaming smile, "Itâs that farmer. His name is Hu Xiaobei! Isnât his name quite similar to that liquorâs brand?"
