C37 Come Drink

"Oh, isn't this the money that the Ning Family's Chairman got? My secretary told me he was a member of the Ning Family, but I didn't expect him to be Miss Ning."

When Vice President Chen entered, he saw Ning Anlan sitting at the dining table, elegantly sipping tea, as if he was a beauty from a painting.

"Director Chen, I've heard a lot about you." Ning Anlan stood up and stretched out his hand. When Director Chen saw this, he smiled and extended his hand over.

However, Ning Anlan's words had more or less come to fruition, but Director Chen's big hand reached out and grabbed Ning Anlan's hand. It was a firm and firm grip, and was very solid.

Ning Anlan's hands were slender and fair, while Vice President Chen's hands were fat and greasy, forming a striking contrast between his two hands.

Ning Anlan wanted to take back his hand, but he didn't know whether it was intentional or not. He didn't feel that he had used any strength, but Ning Anlan just couldn't take it back.

"Director Chen, take a seat." Ning Anlan was expressionless. It was impossible that Vice President Chen didn't know that shaking hands with a woman could only be done in part.

Ning Anlan felt nauseous in his heart, but he endured it. After all, today's main task was to discuss business, not to haggle over such trivial matters.

"Ah, ah, ah, yes, yes." Vice President Chen smiled as if he had just thought of something, then let go of Ning Anlan's hand and sat down on a chair.

"Director Chen, I won't beat around the bush. As for today, I want to talk to you about your company's new projects in recent days. Regarding Clear Lake, our Ning Corporation is rather interested." Ning Anlan tidied up his hair and saw Vice President Chen looking at her.

"I saw you when I was young, but you weren't that young then. I didn't expect you to grow up so much now. Time flies, time flies."

Vice President Chen didn't pay any attention to Ning Anlan's words just now. He only looked at him and suddenly sighed, saying these words.

Ning Anlan frowned slightly. Why would he suddenly mention something that had nothing to do with his work?

She didn't know how young Vice President Chen had been when he was young, but Ning Anlan had no impression of him.

"Chief Chen, today I mainly want to talk about your company's newly developed project …"

Ning Anlan couldn't let him lead him away. He just wanted to pull the topic back to him as soon as possible.

But Vice President Chen only frowned, looking as if he wasn't satisfied with what Ning Anlan had just said.

"Look, we finally got together. Let's not talk about work today. Uncle will accompany you to have a good drink."

As Vice President Chen spoke, he had already called a waiter over and asked for a bottle of wine. Ning Anlan frowned. She still did not understand what this Vice President Chen meant.

"Director Chen, I don't drink much." Although she still couldn't see what Vice President Chen was up to, she was alone outside, surrounded by people she wasn't familiar with. Ning Anlan still felt that it was better not to drink at all, so she didn't drink at all.

"Hey, you're not giving face to your uncle, it's just cooperation. If you drink enough with your uncle, then this contract will be signed. Look at you, you're so young, how can you not drink?" "It's just not giving face to uncle."

Vice President Chen looked at Ning Anlan with a somewhat grumbling expression, as if he was really blaming Ning Anlan for not giving him face. He was no longer happy.

He already had the thought of retreating, but this collaboration was very important. If he gave up on it, then he would give up on a very good opportunity.

What a pity, she hadn't tried hard and was about to give up?

The waiter brought the wine over. Ning Anlan looked at the bottle and gritted her teeth, but her alcohol tolerance was not bad. This wine was just served by the waiter, and no one had left the room before. She didn't expect anyone to order the waiter to add anything into the wine.

"Okay, but I'm not that good at it. I probably won't drink a lot."

Hearing Ning Anlan's words, Vice President Chen laughed out loud in satisfaction, "Isn't that right? As a young man, you need to practice wine. You'll have to drink when you go out later, you're just a little girl. Isn't it just a part of being bullied? Uncle will help you practice your alcohol today."

Vice President Chen said boldly, but Ning Anlan kept feeling that something wasn't right, especially when Vice President Chen claimed to be his uncle, which made Ning Anlan feel very uncomfortable.

They had come out to discuss work, not family matters. Moreover, Ning Anlan felt that he had nothing to discuss with him.

Although it was a bit uncomfortable, he still needed to have the necessary social interaction.

"Boss Chen, are you good at drinking?" Ning Anlan asked politely. She just wanted to know who would win if she fought Vice President Chen over wine.

When Vice President Chen heard Ning Anlan's words, he became unhappy. He looked at Ning Anlan with a bit of provocation, but Ning Anlan didn't quite understand what she meant by 'to make him unhappy'.

"An Lan, why are you being so courteous to me? You have to call me uncle, why does calling me Director Chen sound so unfamiliar?" Vice President Chen's words immediately gave Ning Anlan goosebumps. She didn't have such an uncle, and she didn't want to have one either.

No matter what this Vice President Chen was planning, Ning Anlan didn't have the patience to keep playing around with him. At worst, he would just fall out with him. Ning Anlan couldn't stand being so weird like this.

"Director Chen, don't play around with me, I'm not here today to talk or drink, I'm here to talk about this project. I know that you can understand what I'm saying, so don't beat around the bush, just tell me what you think."

Ever since she had entered the office, she had already mentioned the matter of the cooperation many times. However, Vice President Chen had always avoided talking about it and even allowed her to drink. Clearly, she was beating around the bush with her.

Why couldn't he just be straightforward? Ning Anlan couldn't just let him lead the way.

"Tsk, how boring. Young people like you are really talking about work. Miss Ning, I know what you mean. Don't you want our company's new project? Actually, it's not really a big deal, but it's just a matter of me saying a few words. "

Vice President Chen no longer had that fake look from before. He put down the wine cup in his hand and leaned his back against the back of the chair.

"Does Chen always want something? "I know that you guys have already spoken to the Gu Clan. I don't know what kind of agreement or tacit understanding you guys have reached, but our Ning Clan has shown 100% sincerity."
