Li Se was stunned when he heard this, and turned to look at Xia Bingyun. Since when had he become her boyfriend?
What's more, after Xia Bingyun said this, she took his arm, and the two of them looked very intimate.
Li Se felt the softness transmitted from his arm. Although it was comfortable, he still struggled symbolically.
"Don't move," Xia Bingyun said in a low voice.
Li Se was a little helpless, so he went with the flow and put his arm around Xia Bingyun's slender waist. It had to be said that it felt really good.
Xia Bingyun felt Li Se's impropriety, but she only blushed and didn't say anything more.
This scene, however, fell into the eyes of others, who were all dumbfounded.
The tall and handsome man who had just asked Li Se who he was had an unnatural expression. However, he still extended his hand and said, "I am Lu Xinghe, the current head of Oulan Cosmetics Company in Qingyun City for Jiangnan Province!"
"Li Se, a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner." Li Se also extended his hand. His self-introduction was simpler.
However, upon hearing Oulan Cosmetics Company, he couldn't help but think of Tian Yuanming and Qiu Qing. A while ago, the Tian Yuanming couple came to seek fertility, and he didn't know how things were going. He could call and ask later.
"Traditional Chinese medicine?" Lu Xinghe showed a strange expression, and disdain flashed in his eyes. Although he was not a doctor, he knew how difficult traditional Chinese medicine was. It usually took people in their fifties to become accomplished TCM practitioners. The Li Se in front of him was only in his early twenties, and he was probably just starting. That made him a nobody.
"Oh my, people are still studying traditional Chinese medicine now. It's not simple for a young person."
"Traditional Chinese medicine is a national quintessence. It's good to study it."
"It's actually a good thing to have a friend who studies medicine by your side."
"However, it's not that easy for a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner to become accomplished. Many old TCM practitioners are in their fifties. Little Li still has a long way to go."
"..."
The others started chattering, and in their words, it seemed like Li Se was just a junior, and they were instructing this young man.
Xia Bingyun introduced Li Se, saying that Lu Xinghe and a few others were her old classmates. They were here this time mainly to get together, and Lu Xinghe was the head of Oulan Group in Qingyun City, so there might be opportunities for cooperation.
Xia Bingyun's Yunmeng Company was already quite formidable in Qingyun City, but compared to Oulan Group, there was still a gap.
Speaking of Oulan Group, Li Se thought of another matter. He asked, "Bingyun, have any people from Oulan Group contacted you recently?"
"Yes," Xia Bingyun pointed at Lu Xinghe.
Li Se was puzzled. At that time, he had asked Tian Yuanming to find Yunmeng Company for cooperation. Had it not started yet?
"Let's go, I've booked a restaurant, let's head over directly," Lu Xinghe said with a smile.
"Li Se, come with me." Xia Bingyun still held Li Se's arm, looking very intimate.
"Bingyun, get in my car." Lu Xinghe pressed the car key. It was an Audi A6. It was quite impressive for him to be driving this car at his age.
"I'll ride in my boyfriend's car," Xia Bingyun said.
"You have a car?" Lu Xinghe looked at Li Se with a half-smile.
Li Se also took out his car key and pressed it. The Porsche Cayenne beeped twice.
Lu Xinghe's expression changed. How could this guy be driving a Porsche? Although the Audi A6 was not cheap, it was still quite a bit less than a Porsche.
"Bingyun, get in the car." Li Se took the initiative to open the car door for Xia Bingyun.
"Then we'll see you later." Xia Bingyun waved to everyone.
"Xinghe, I didn't expect this guy to look so unpromising, yet drive such a nice car." The speaker was He Guang, who was also a company executive now, but still had some gap compared to Lu Xinghe.
"Do you think this car was bought for him by Xia Bingyun?" a girl asked curiously.
As soon as she said this, Lu Xinghe suddenly realized. Buying a Porsche was not difficult for Xia Bingyun. If Li Se's Porsche was bought by Xia Bingyun, then it would be nothing strange at all. He snorted coldly, "So he's a kept man. He probably can't help Bingyun with her career either. Whether Yunmeng can cooperate with Oulan is up to me!"
Soon, the two parties met at a rather upscale Western restaurant. Lu Xinghe had booked a private room and ordered some steaks and red wine. This meal would probably cost tens of thousands of yuan.
"Bingyun, Oulan Group is currently intending to develop the market in Qingyun City, and I think your Yunmeng Company has a great opportunity." Lu Xinghe felt it was necessary to show off his strength.
"Is there really an opportunity?" Xia Bingyun really wanted to cooperate with Oulan Group.
"Of course," Lu Xinghe said confidently. "Don't forget, I'm the head of Oulan Group now."
"Bingyun, with Xinghe here, cooperation will definitely be no problem," He Guang chimed in.
"Bingyun, here's to us." Lu Xinghe poured himself a glass of red wine and then poured one for Xia Bingyun. "We should be seeing each other often in the coming period, after all, we're going to cooperate."
Xia Bingyun didn't really want to drink, but thinking of cooperating with Oulan Group, she picked up the red wine and clinked glasses with Lu Xinghe. She only took a sip of the red wine and then placed it on the table.
"Bingyun, cooperation requires sincerity. Since you can't drink this red wine, I'll drink it for you." Lu Xinghe reached out to take the glass Xia Bingyun had drunk from.
If Lu Xinghe drank it, it would be an indirect kiss.
Xia Bingyun frowned. She was a businesswoman and had dealt with many businessmen over the years. Many of them were after her beauty.
Although Lu Xinghe was an old classmate, he had been pursuing her for years. This time, he probably wanted to use the cooperation to get closer.
However, before Lu Xinghe could touch the wine glass, it was taken away by another hand, which was Li Se. He drank the rest of the red wine Xia Bingyun had left in one gulp and then smiled, "Bingyun is not good with alcohol. I'll drink this glass for her."
Xia Bingyun didn't expect this outcome, and her pretty face blushed.
Lu Xinghe's expression changed slightly, but at this moment, he could only drink his own red wine and said coldly, "When it comes to business, it's best not to get involved if you don't understand. Oulan Group is a large company. If we can cooperate, opening up the Qingyun City market would be an upgrade for Yunmeng Company. It's not impossible to impact other cities in the future."
As he spoke, he poured another glass of red wine for Xia Bingyun. "Bingyun, I am now the head of Oulan Group in Qingyun City. Whether we can cooperate is simply a matter of my word!"
Hearing this, Xia Bingyun's expression changed.
Lu Xinghe had refilled Xia Bingyun's red wine and said, "Bingyun, let's toast. We'll have many more opportunities to drink alone in the future."
"I'll drink for my girlfriend," Li Se said, taking the wine glass to himself again.
"Did I let you drink?" Lu Xinghe rebuked. "What are you? Are you worthy of drinking with me? If it weren't for Bingyun's sake, you wouldn't even have the right to speak to me. What kind of trash are you!"
