Lin Zhiming picked up the chopsticks on the table and started picking up the food.
Cai Hui sat opposite Lin Zhiming, his face flushed, as if he was agitated by what he just said.
Long Sha stood behind Cai Hui, frowning slightly.
He was a little dissatisfied with Lin Zhiming's performance because Lin Zhiming ignored Cai Hui and started eating the food.
Wei Anning's face looked a little joking, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
As for Xu Huai, he stood on the other side, silent, with no expression on his face.
"Eat, what are you doing standing around?" Lin Zhiming said to Wang Youyi beside him.
Wang Youyi smiled, picked up the chopsticks and started picking up the vegetables.
"I don't need you to give me an answer right away. You don't have to give me an answer until the meal is over. However, after the meal is over, I need you to give me a clear statement." Cai Hui said.
.
"Is there any wine?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"Xu Huai, go get the wine." Cai Hui said.
Xu Huai nodded, turned around and walked out of the private room. When he came back, he already had a bottle of Moutai in his hand.
"Add it." Lin Zhiming pointed to a wine glass next to him and said.
Xu Huai smiled, opened the wine, and filled up Lin Zhiming's glass.
"Give it to him too." Lin Zhiming pointed to Wang Youyi next to him.
"It's full." Wang Youyi followed.
Xu Huai said nothing and filled Wang Youyi's wine glass.
"Here, have a drink." Lin Zhiming picked up the wine glass and said to Wang Youyi.
Wang Youyi nodded, picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Lin Zhiming, and then the two of them drank the wine in the glass.
"Continue to fill it up." Lin Zhiming said.
Xu Huai filled up the wine glasses of Lin Zhiming and Wang Youyi.
"I respect you." This time it was Wang Youyi's turn to take the initiative to pick up the wine glass and clink it with Lin Zhiming.
Lin Zhiming smiled and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.
The two of them were eating food and drinking wine as if they were old friends for many years.
Cai Hui sat in his seat from beginning to end without saying a word, eating or drinking.
The heater in the room blew out bursts of warm air, which made Lin Zhiming sweat a little on his forehead.
Lin Zhiming put down his chopsticks, picked up a tissue on the table and wiped his forehead and said, "This white wine is really a bit hot after drinking it."
"A bottle of wine is already finished, do you want more?" Xu Huai asked.
"No, wine is fine in moderation." Lin Zhiming shook his head, then looked at Wang Youyi and said, "Are you full?"
"I'm full." Wang Youyi put down his chopsticks and nodded.
"Then...Xu Huai, you can send him down." Lin Zhiming said.
"Huh?" Xu Huai was slightly surprised.
Cai Hui, who was sitting opposite Lin Zhiming, frowned.
"Wang Youyi, if you are guilty, this meal will be regarded as my practice for you. If you are not guilty, I will have a good drink with you on the day you come out." Lin Zhiming said to Wang Youyi.
"Thank you, Director Lin." Wang Youyi nodded, then stood up and said to Xu Huai, "Can we go?"
"Mr. Cai..." Xu Huai looked at Cai Hui.
"Take it down." Cai Hui said.
"Yes!" Xu Huai nodded, then took Wang Youyi out of the private room and asked the people outside the private room to take Wang Youyi back to the Supervision Department, while he himself walked into the private room again.
"Is this your answer?" Cai Hui looked at Lin Zhiming and asked.
"Yes." Lin Zhiming nodded.
"After all, you still chose to side with those despicable people like Chen Hongyu, which makes me very disappointed," Cai Hui said.
"You still don't know me well enough." Lin Zhiming picked up the tissue next to him and wiped his mouth, then stood up and said, "For me, my friend, I don't care whether he is a hero respected by thousands of people or a villain despised by everyone.
, no matter how many sins he has committed, if he has not sorry for me, then he is my friend. Your old past has nothing to do with me. Now they are all my colleagues and my friends, so... I choose to stand with them.
This side."
"Even if Wang Youyi suffers inhuman torture because of this, it doesn't matter to you?" Cai Hui asked.
"Everyone living in this world will always face some difficulties. If you break through the difficulties, you can break out of the cocoon and become a butterfly and be reborn from the ashes. If you can't break through, there is no way." Lin Zhiming said.
"The way you shirk responsibility is very much like those hypocritical villains. The evidence I have now shows that the information Wang Youyi leaked was given to you. The reason why Wang Youyi abused his power to spy on the top leaders of the Dragon Clan was also because of you.
Now that Wang Youyi has been arrested, but you have no intention of saving him, aren't you afraid of chilling the hearts of your men?" Cai Hui asked, staring at Lin Zhiming.
Hearing Cai Hui's words, Lin Zhiming smiled, put the paper on the table after wiping his mouth, then stood up and said, "Wang Youyi is not my subordinate, he is just a friend of mine. By the way, out of
As a friend, I have something to say to you. If Wang Youyi is guilty, then he deserves whatever he suffers. But...if Wang Youyi is innocent, then...anyone who has touched Wang Youyi, I will make him pay the price.
,remember,anyone!”
"Do you really think you are invincible?" Long Sha asked, staring at Lin Zhiming with a cold expression.
"I don't think so, but... it shouldn't be a problem to kill you. Okay, Mr. Cai, thank you for this meal, I'll leave first!"
After Lin Zhiming finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the private room.
"Lin Zhiming, I will give you one last chance to become my partner. I can immediately ask Xu Huai to release Wang Youyi. Once you walk out of this private room now, it means that we can only become enemies." Cai
Hui said with a dark face.
Lin Zhiming paused for a moment, then turned around and said, "We will not become enemies."
Cai Hui raised his brows slightly, and just when a smile was about to appear on his face, Lin Zhiming said again, "Because you guys are not qualified to be my enemies."
After saying that, Lin Zhiming turned his head and walked straight out of the private room.
Only Cai Hui and others were left in the private room.
"What an arrogant guy." Cai Hui said with a slight frown.
"It's normal to be a little arrogant when you are young and successful. If I had achieved his current results at his age, I might be even more arrogant than him." Xu Huai said.
"Mr. Cai, you should let me teach him a lesson and let him know what it means that there are people outside the world and there is a sky outside the world." Long Sha said.
"It's not necessary. You are the ace beside me. If people know the details too early, it will not have the expected effect. Xu Huai, Wang Youyi doesn't have to wait any longer. Just go to jail. I want to let Lin know his fate."
You know the price of rejecting me!" Cai Hui said.
"Yes!" Xu Huai nodded.
"In addition, reveal the news that Lin Zhiming is having dinner with us tonight to Chen Hongyu and the others. Since Lin Zhiming doesn't want to be our partner, then I don't want to see Lin Zhiming and Chen Hongyu get together," Cai Hui said.
.
"yes!!"
The night is dark.
Chen Hongyu is sitting in his office.
At this moment, the phone next to Chen Hongyu suddenly rang.
Chen Hongyu picked up the phone, and Jiang Zhifeng's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Old Chen, I just got the news that Cai Hui hosted a banquet for Lin Zhiming tonight!" Jiang Zhifeng said in a deep voice on the other end of the phone.
"Cai Hui is new here, and he has old grudges with us, so it's normal to ask for orders to have dinner." Chen Hongyu said.
"That's what I said, but Zhi Ming is from our side, but he accepted Cai Hui's invitation behind our backs. This is not a good thing. Who knows what they will talk about at the dinner table. Cai Hui even arrested him today
Wang Youyi, maybe he will use Wang Youyi as a bargaining chip to threaten Lin Zhiming and ask Lin Zhiming to help him do things or cooperate with him! We must be more thoughtful and don't let them take the bottom of the cauldron!" Jiang Zhifeng!
said.
"Old Jiang, I won't betray you so easily."
Lin Zhiming's voice suddenly appeared on the phone.
Jiang Zhifeng on the other end of the phone was stunned and asked, "Old Chen, who is next to you?"
"Can't you hear the sound?" Chen Hongyu asked.
Jiang Zhifeng was silent for a moment and asked, "Do you know your fate?"
"Otherwise? Zhiming and Cai Hui came to me just after dinner. Zhiming had already told me what they talked about at the dinner table," Chen Hongyu said.
"Ah! So that's it, Zhi Ming, I didn't mean to doubt you, but at this sensitive point, if you go to eat with Cai Hui, it will make people think of it, so don't take it to heart.
!" Jiang Zhifeng said.
"I won't take it to heart, don't worry." Lin Zhiming said.
"That's good. By the way, why did you suddenly go to find Lao Chen?" Jiang Zhifeng asked doubtfully.
"Zhiming felt that Cai Hui might leak to us the news that he had dinner with Zhiming, so as to drive a wedge between us, so after Zhiming finished eating, he took the initiative to come to me and explain everything clearly." Chen Hongyu said.
"So that's how it is. I know you're so thoughtful. You even took this into consideration. It's really talented people from generation to generation! Okay, that's it for now! See you later." Jiang Zhifeng said.
"Well, see you later!" Chen Hongyu said and hung up the phone.
"Cai Hui, you really do everything possible." Chen Hongyu said with emotion.
"I would do the same thing if it were me," Lin Zhiming said.
"Then what do you think Cai Hui will do next?" Chen Hongyu asked.
"I don't know about that. I don't know much about Cai Hui. Now we can only wait for Cai Hui to take action before thinking of countermeasures." Lin Zhiming said.
"Hey, I originally thought that there would be someone who could work together to deal with the Tree of Life, but unexpectedly there was an internal conflict. Being affected by Cai Hui, our attack rhythm on the Tree of Life will undoubtedly slow down a lot. This
Time to give the Tree of Life time again!" Chen Hongyu said angrily.
"It's indeed a bit troublesome!" Lin Zhiming nodded.
