Whether you are in politics, business, working in the street, or among friends or classmates, dinner culture is a must-learn and requires mastery of proficient skills. With this skill, you will be at home in society, not to mention. If you have both sides, at least it will leave a good impression on people. After a few more runs, it might be possible to make a business deal in one go.
Whether it is a group of people on Xiasan Road eating at roadside stalls, shirtless punching and drinking, or a luxury private room on Shangsan Road eating delicacies from the mountains and sea and drinking top-notch wines, in the final analysis they are all very similar dinner culture, and they are inextricably linked, and there is a sense of arriving at the same destination through different routes.
Lin Ze must have eaten more barbecue and beer from roadside stalls than from top-notch restaurants. He was just a young agent who had not experienced the influence of wealthy aristocrats. Most of what he did was licking blood from the edge of a knife and fighting for his life. Even though he was protecting young people in the UK The princess has come into contact with the life and culture of some wealthy and aristocratic families, but at her core she is still the same vulgar guy who likes to drink cold beer and eat grilled meat skewers. She is not high or low, but she really doesn't know much about top-level dining.
Back then, when he was protecting the little princess, he had little opportunity to get involved in the British aristocrat's dinner party as a bodyguard. He only got to see a little of the aristocrat's sensuality, and it was almost impossible to squeeze in. However, after returning to China, he heard what Han Zhenbei did to the Chinese upper class. A relatively comprehensive explanation, but I don’t have much opportunity to understand it.
Several dances, a farce at the club at the beginning of the year, plus the peace-making drink, this is Lin Ze's complete contact with Yanjing's upper class society. In theory, he is an introduction, but in practice he has not figured out any essentials. It is not that he is stupid. , there was really no chance for him to think about it. Every time, he would play intrigues in the middle or at the beginning, without giving Lin Ze a chance to digest and absorb. Until now, Lin Ze still has a vague understanding of the so-called dinner table of Yanjing's upper class. ,
"I am the host of this dinner, and they are the guests. Don't worry, the previous problems will probably not arise." Han Xiaoyi, who was sitting in the passenger seat, trimmed her nails and said with a smile,
Lin Ze, who was driving, lit a cigarette unscrupulously, rolled the window open a little, stared at the brightly lit street in front of him, and said with a smile: "I'm not afraid of anyone causing trouble for you, and I guess none of the people you invited are like this." I'm brave, but I'm afraid that some people will dislike me."
"Why." Han Xiaoyi tilted her head and asked with a half-smile.
"I don't believe there aren't many wealthy young men in Yanjing who admire you." Lin Ze sat up straight and said seriously,
"Definitely." Han Xiaoyi nodded, not bragging at all.
"Are there any people coming this time?" Lin Ze asked,
"Yes." Han Xiaoyi hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "I didn't stalk you, and disappeared after being scolded by me. Of course, you are the kind of boss who can still be friends after being rejected by me. I am too immeasurable. dislike."
"There's only one." Lin Ze smiled cheekily,
"There is another one." Seeing this guy asking questions, Han Xiaoyi felt a little proud and sweet in her heart, and said, "This guy is more difficult to deal with. She will bother me every year when I go back to Yanjing. The year before you became my bodyguard, I I slapped him in anger, and then he became honest. Speaking of which, he was probably the only one who gave me a headache during the whole dinner, even more so than Xue Gui."
"The family is very rich." Lin Ze puffed out a puff of smoke without any hint of jealousy.
"One of my father's important allies in the later stages of development." Han Xiaoyi said proudly, "If my father were a little more tacky and philistine, he and I would have been brought together by our two elders to get engaged a few years ago."
"Indeed." Lin Ze nodded candidly, "Your daddy is not an ordinary giant, nor is he an ordinary daddy."
"That's right, it doesn't matter what kind of person my dad is."
Han Zhenbei is the only man that Han Xiaoyi admires, and Lin Ze is the only man who can make her think wildly and unable to sleep at night.
"Will he cause trouble for me?" Lin Ze asked casually,
"It's hard to say, theoretically not." Han Xiaoyi shook her head.
"Actually?" Lin Ze asked,
"This dinner is quite important, he shouldn't mess around." Han Xiaoyi's eyes flashed with a deep look,
"If I have his net worth, the girl I like will announce to the whole world that she likes a man. I will still be a phoenix man who wants a body but not a figure and looks but not looks. No matter what reason and face, I will definitely beat him up first when we meet. "Lin Ze took the place of the young master who was slapped by the eldest lady of the Han family.
"Nonsense, you are a handsome guy." Han Xiaoyi changed his tone uncharacteristically, staring intensely at Lin Ze's face that was indeed not handsome, and said seriously, "Chen Yifei is not even more handsome than you."
"Damn it." Brother Xiao Lin, who was used to being bullied, shook his hands, turned around and said in a deep voice, "Sister, come on before it's still early."
"roll."

Liu Wen was both happy and melancholy at the moment. What was gratifying was that she did not expect that she could enter a small dinner party organized by Han Xiaoyi. What was sad was that she was a neutral. This was an indisputable fact that everyone in the upper class knew. She never takes sides, so her room for advancement is very limited, but as long as she manages her business well, there will be no tragic picture of her rising to prominence on the first night and then dying on the street the second night.
After Liu Wen, who never takes sides, received Han Xiaoyi's invitation, she locked herself in the room for half the night before going to the appointment.
This was destined to be not a simple dinner party. Liu Wen knew it, and so did the other participants. And speaking of it, except for the few dandy girls from better-off families than herself, Sister Tao, like Xue Gui and herself, were the outliers in the dinner party. , but all three of them agreed unanimously and came, which made Liu Wen's mentality slightly better.
She is a relatively well-known single strong woman in Yanjing, and she is also an intellectual girl with a slightly literary style. She must have some acumen and is relatively strong, but it is difficult for her to make this decision. No matter what choice she made, she couldn't calm down quickly, but the arrival of Xue Gui and Sister Hong made her understand that her decision should be the right one. If she didn't come, it might be... A real bad choice,
"Wenwen, why are you alone in a daze?" Sister Tao twisted her plump peach-like body to the opposite side of Liu Wen, sat down with an enchanting posture, and asked with a peach-like smile,
Entering this lounge, she found that several young men looked at her with a very normal lust in their eyes. They concealed it very well, but Sister Tao, who was still in her early thirties and so plump and rich, understood at a glance that she It’s not surprising that she knows how damaging her body is to men. On the contrary, if a woman with a certain moral character is not familiar with her own capital and charm, she will definitely not be able to last long.
"It's nothing, just thinking." Liu Wen squeezed out a slightly gentle smile, which was not exquisite, but had a unique flavor.
"Do you think Miss Han will bring that bodyguard who has been in the limelight recently?" Sister Tao asked seemingly casually, but in fact she carefully studied Liu Wen's expressions and movements.
"Maybe." Liu Wen smiled bitterly, shook her head slightly and said, "I can't predict Miss Han's words and deeds."
Sister Tao twirled her wine glass and said with a charming smile: "I also want to meet that personal bodyguard who we met once again. In just half a year, he has gone from an unknown bodyguard to a hotly talked about figure in many circles today. , it’s not simple.”
"It's indeed not simple." Liu Wen nodded,
She is different from Sister Tao,
But there are many similarities,
Neither of these two women have too revealing backstage. Sister Tao is slightly better. Most people in the circle know that there is a powerful man behind her. As for who it is, it is not clear yet, but it can be regarded as a strong backstage. Liu Wen is She has built a small world entirely by relying on her social skills and personal wisdom. For the three top wealthy families, Han, Chen and Xue, her capital is indeed not on the table, but for the Yanjing Second Circle, it is quite powerful. It can be said that she She has already stepped into the first-line circle, but due to the limitations of her position, she has never been able to completely cross this threshold. Even if her strategy does not change, this thirty-year-old woman will have countless women. A woman who cannot have permanent assets in her life may not be able to enter the first-tier circle in her life. This is not a problem of ability, but a problem of environment.
But even so, she is still a woman that many top executives are willing to contact and associate with.
If you have a good reputation, popularity, and strong abilities, even if you cannot be an ally, you are still very good as a friend.
Sister Tao is coquettish and charming,
Liu Wen is intellectual and elegant,
The two have completely different personalities and completely incompatible behavior styles, but they are the two female celebrities closest to the first-tier circle in the second-tier circle.
Han Xiaoyi's invitation to them seemed a bit unorthodox, but anyone with a discerning eye could see the clues. Overall, it was unexpected and reasonable.
"Miss Han is here." Liu Wen suddenly stood up, informed Sister Tao and went to greet her, her posture low enough,
When Han Xiaoyi and Lin Ze arrived, except for the martial arts idiot Xue Gui, the rest of the group of seven or eight people stood up to greet them.
Just when Han Xiaoyi was about to smile sweetly and ask everyone to sit down, a voice that was not suitable for the current environment sounded,
"Xiaoyi, why did you bring him here?" The voice sounded in the crowd, but everyone knew who said this. Even Lin Ze, who was participating in such an upper-class dinner for the first time, could guess a thing or two.
"Can he come to this kind of dinner? Xiaoyi, if you must let him eat this meal, then I will leave now."
A handsome and feminine man walked out of the crowd with a strong look of indignation on his face. He seemed to be very dissatisfied with Han Xiaoyi bringing his bodyguard, and even felt that he was being underestimated.
Han Xiaoyi's face with a sweet smile first flashed a look of surprise, and then she blinked her big eyes cutely and innocently, pointed to the door where she came in, and coldly uttered one word: "Get out."
