After taking Xiao Siya to have breakfast, I contacted Gu Ming from vg and Du Kai from Starlight Culture and Tourism.
We made an appointment at Gu Ming's company. The core of this meeting was to determine the cooperative relationship and some future strategic developments.
I have made it clear to them before, so this meeting is actually just a formality.
But this scene is very important because it involves the future development of three or even four of our companies.
After a morning of talks, the cooperation agreement was finally signed.
This also means that from this moment on, our Yalan Clothing will set sail again.
My goal is not just to become the largest clothing manufacturer in China, so this is just the beginning.
At noon, I invited them both to have dinner together at a nearby star-rated hotel. I had already asked Chen Dajiang to book a private room for me.
Although we have signed a contract, this meal is inevitable. This is a Chinese-style dinner.
Of course, I don't object to this kind of dinner party now. After all, Gu Ming and Du Kai are both very easy to get along with, and I am willing to compete with them at the wine table.
I used to be able to drink quite well, but since I got gastric cancer, even after the surgery was successful, my ability to drink has obviously declined.
After just a few glasses of white wine, I felt a burning sensation in my stomach.
When Gu Ming poured the wine and was about to have a drink with me, Xiao Siya blocked the wine for me and said, "Mr. Gu, I will drink this glass of wine with you and let Chen Feng rest for a while."
Gu Ming glanced at me and asked with concern: "Mr. Chen, can you still do it?"
It’s true that I didn’t drink much, and I took the initiative to propose it. This was the first time Gu Ming took the initiative to offer me a drink. How could I not drink it?
I waved my hand, and after he made an "ok" gesture, I picked up the wine glass and clinked it with him.
When I was about to drink, Xiao Siya came close to me and whispered: "If you can't drink it, don't drink it. You know what's going on with your body."
I didn't care so much. I must drink this wine with them happily.
I raised my head and drank it down. At this time, Du Kai stood up and toasted me again, saying: "Mr. Chen, this cooperation between our three parties is thanks to you running in the middle. I wish our cooperation smooth."
I poured another glass of wine and continued to have a drink with him.
I know that after drinking this glass of wine, I may have some reactions.
But I still didn’t think so much and continued to drink it all in one gulp.
The burning sensation in my stomach became more and more severe, and I even felt like vomiting.
This is not my capacity, so where is this?
I quickly ate a few mouthfuls of vegetables and drank a few mouthfuls of soup, and then suppressed the nausea in my heart.
Fortunately, neither Gu Ming nor Du Kai are the kind of people who like to persuade people to drink.
Gu Ming even said to me: "Mr. Chen, please have some food and don't drink all the time."
As he said that, he took the initiative to put a chopstick of vegetables into my bowl.
He is a really good person. Not only is he handsome, but he also has a very upright outlook.
We didn't drink much for the next time. After chatting for a while, I felt a stomach cramp again.
I couldn't bear it anymore, so I had to excuse myself and left the private room, ran to the bathroom next door and vomited.
The vomiting made me uncomfortable, as if my soul had been sucked out of my whole body.
I sat directly on the floor in the bathroom, my whole head was so dizzy, I felt like the whole world was spinning in my mind.
I don’t know how long it took, but I heard a woman’s voice coming from beside me: “I told you not to drink, don’t drink, but you insist on drinking. Feel good now!”
I raised my head with difficulty and glanced vaguely, it seemed to be Xiao Siya.
I'm not sure how she got into the men's room, but she was standing right in front of me.
I waved my hand at her and motioned for her to go out first.
But she bent down and helped me up. I was probably really drunk, and my whole body was a little unsteady, so I put all my weight on Xiao Siya.
She helped me walk outside, and just then a man came into the toilet. He was startled when he saw Xiao Siya, a woman, in the men's toilet.
Xiao Siya said in a bad way: "What are you looking at? Have you never seen a woman going to the men's restroom?"
I don't know where she is going to help me, but I know it is very difficult for her.
I pushed her away and tried to walk on my own.
But before he could take two steps, he stumbled and fell heavily to the ground with a plop.
Xiao Siya hurried over to help me up again, while complaining: "I'm really impressed by you! You know you can't drink, but you insist on drinking so much, you're doing it all on your own!"
"You... stop talking, I'll just take it easy for a while."
"Get up and walk quickly, don't block people by lying in the aisle."
"I...I'm dizzy!"
She helped me up again and said to me, "Just hold on for a while, and I'll let you sleep in the room."
"Gu Ming and Du Kai are still in the private room, how can I leave?" I said a little unclearly.
"Shall I go entertain them?"
"No, you're not familiar with them. Just help me sit there for a while, and I'll just take it easy."
Xiao Siya looked at me speechlessly, shook her head and said, "I really admire you."
After sitting down on the chair, Xiao Siya went to the waiter and asked for a glass of warm water for me to drink.
I slumped down on the chair, breathing heavily.
Xiao Siya complained again: "You are really not afraid of drinking to death!"
"Who knew it was so serious? I just had a few drinks and that's all."
"You can't drink at all now. It's better to quit drinking in the future. Even if you don't think about yourself, think about the people who care about you."
Xiao Siya's words suddenly reminded me, if I really drank myself to death, how sad would An Lan be?
I took a long breath and closed my eyes, trying to wake myself up.
But after closing my eyes, the dizziness became more serious, and I couldn't even sit still.
If Xiao Siya hadn't grabbed me, I would have fallen to the ground.
"Forget it, stop sitting, I'll help you to the room and you can lie down!"
She didn't wait for my reply and said to me very forcefully: "Stop being stubborn with me. If you are, I will tell An Lan about you."
"Don't, don't..."
"Then be obedient!"
I can't remember exactly how Xiao Siya sent me to the room at that time. I only know that I fell asleep after a while after I felt myself lying on a soft bed.
…
I woke up from thirst. It felt like I had been walking in the desert for several days without a sip of water. My throat was burning and uncomfortable.
After I woke up, my head was still heavy and my body was full of the smell of liquor. I subconsciously raised my hand, but I touched the softness.
When I turned around, my blood pressure immediately soared, and my head, which was still dizzy, suddenly woke up.
