Chapter 644 - Why Are You So Self-Willed? (1/2)
Li Meiyu replied, “You’ve helped us a lot and the Li family would not be what it is now without you. So you really should take this sum of money.”
Qin Haodong waved his hand and said, “Keep it for me first and I’ll take it when I need it.”
Li Meiyu said, “You must take it, anyway. And I’ll keep it for you until tomorrow. If you don’t take it then, I’ll transfer it to Sister Momo.”
Qin Haodong smiled and said, “Well, have it your own way.”
At this moment, the RV stopped. Qin Haodong and Li Meiyu got out of the car and saw a splendid club in front of them.
The building was luxuriously furnished and perhaps only the Seven-star Hotel in Dubai which they had seen in the video could match it. But strangely, there was no signboard here.
Li Meiyu seemed to have read his mind and explained, “This is the private club of the Hong Kong Chamber of Commerce. It is designed based on the standards of a seven-star hotel. Besides, it has never been open to the public, so there’s no signboard here.”
Then she took Qin Haodong by his arm and walked into the building with him.
The banquet would begin about half an hour later, but a lot of guests had already arrived. They gathered in groups of twos and threes, talking with each other while looking for business opportunities for their own companies.
These things seemed annoying, but they had to be done. As the new president of the Li family, Li Meiyu had to mingle with the upper classes of Hong Kong.
She knew that Qin Haodong did not like these affairs, so she said, “Haodong, sit here for a while. I’ll be back soon.”
“Don’t worry. Just go about your business.”
Li Meiyu nodded at him apologetically and then joined the crowd, holding a glass of wine in her hands.
This was a buffet reception and the club had prepared all the different delicacies. Qin Haodong chose some of his favorite food, poured himself a glass of wine and then sat down in a quiet corner to enjoy his food.
While he was eating, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in front of him. It was Ouyang Shanshan, who was in Hong Kong for a commercial performance. He did not expect they would meet so unexpectedly here.
But she looked grumpy and was walking over in a hurry.
She was followed by a middle-aged man in his forties, who was wearing a designer suit. With gold-rimmed glasses and a gold watch on his wrist, he looked exactly like a man in the upper class. But his eyes were filled with an obscene leer, which seemed annoying.
The middle-aged man did not notice Qin Haodong who was sitting in the corner. He grabbed Ouyang Shanshan by her arm and said, “Shanshan, please don’t be childish. We can’t afford to offend Mr. Gong.
“Besides, I just want you to have a drink with him. I do not see any problem with that.”
Ouyang Shanshan shouted in great anger, “Mr. Liang, didn’t you see that the playboy wanted to drink ‘cross-cupped wine’ from my glass?”
The middle-aged man said, “Shanshan, we’re here to earn a living and this is just in good fun. Why are you taking it so seriously? Come back with me now, apologize to Master Gong and have a drink with him happily. Maybe the situation could still be remedied.”
Ouyang Shanshan said, “That’s impossible. I won’t apologize to him, let alone have a cross-cupped drink with him.”
The middle-aged man’s face clouded over and he said in a cold voice, “Ouyang Shanshan, don’t forget that you work for our company and have to follow our arrangements. You’re just a worker, not some kind of goddess. You have to do it today and there’s no other choice.”
Ouyang Shanshan said angrily, “Why? I’m an actress, not a hooker. I will never do such lewd things!”
The middle-aged man seemed to have completely lost his patience and said ironically, “We all mingle together in the entertainment circle, so don’t pretend that you are still a virgin.
“To tell you the truth, Master Gong took a fancy to you and just wanted to sleep with you. You have to accept it if you want to work here. You have no other choices.”
“Liang Keqin, what the hell are you talking about!” Ouyang Shanshan was enraged and cursed in great anger, which was rare for her, “Let me tell you, I do work for your Shengtian Entertainment Company, but we’ve signed an agreement and I can leave at any time.”
“Leave?” Liang Keqin sneered and then said proudly, “You’ve underestimated my power in the entertainment circle. As long as you leave, I can guarantee that no entertainment company will dare to hire you.
“At that time, you’ll be kicked out of the entertainment circle. You’ll be completely forgotten by society in a few years, even though you’re a popular star now.”
Ouyang Shanshan said coldly, “It’s none of your business. From now on, I am officially terminating the contract I have with your company and I have nothing to do with you now!”
Liang Keqin was slightly stunned. He thought that Ouyang Shanshan was just joking and did not expect that this woman would actually terminate the agreement with him.
He had been working in the entertainment circle for many years and had also slept with countless beauties. But she was the toughest actress he had ever come across.
“B*tch, who do you think you are? We’re in Hong Kong now and I’m the Boss. Do you think you can do whatever you want? That’s impossible! You must satisfy Master Gong today.”
Liang Keqin reached out to grab her while talking.
