On the other side.

Rick clicked his tongue at the sight of Yang Fangfang who ran away. He then looked towards Elson.

Obviously, Elson was also paying attention to that direction. He first gulped down the glass of wine in his hand before he raised his hand to call for the waiter. He grabbed a glass from the tray and said, “I knew that the student isn’t reliable. Fortunately, I had other preparations.”

Rick asked with interest. “What other preparations have you made?”

“I got my men to bribe over several waiters. They will deliver trays of wine at different time periods.”

“Aren’t you worried that others would drink the wine?”

“The waiters have antidotes with them. If others were to grab the glasses, they will think of a way to put the antidote inside.”

Rick looked at Elson and gave him a thumbs up. “That’s a good idea. Then I’ll wait for you to win the heart of the beauty.”

Having said that, he walked towards a group of people and joined in on their conversation.

On Zi Yi’s side.

After Yang Fangfang ran away, Little Loli went over to call for Zi Yi. “Sister.”

Zi Yi turned her head and looked at Little Loli who winked at her. “What’s the matter?”

Little Loli whispered to her what had happened earlier.

Zi Yi nodded her head and patted her shoulder with a normal expression and said, “Go and play around, don’t go too far.”

“Alright!”

After Little Loli left, one of the big shots smiled and said, “Miss Zi’s family genes are indeed good. Your younger sister is very adorable.”

“Thank you.”

They continued to converse and sometime later, a waiter came over with a tray full of wine glasses.

A few of them all grabbed a glass for themselves.

Louis had also grabbed one for Zi Yi.

When the glass was delivered to her, Zi Yi’s nose twitched and she immediately detected the scent of a drug inside. She took the glass and thanked him.

Everyone raised their glasses and drank, while Zi Yi merely put her lips on the rim of the glass and took a sip.

Someone noticed her actions and smiled as he said, “Miss Zi is still a student and she shouldn’t be accustomed to drinking. If you’re not used to it, you can order fruit juice instead.”

“There’s no need for such trouble.” The corner of her lips curled up and she said, “I am able to drink a little.”

The few of them had plans to continue conversing with Zi Yi on the matters of automobiles and naturally, they would not persuade her to drink.

However, Elson, who saw Zi Yi holding onto the glass instead of drinking from it, started to get anxious. Whenever he got anxious, he would find himself thirsty.

“Waiter.”

He called for the waiter and lifted a glass of wine as he finished its contents.

Only then did he feel better.

While Rick was conversing with other people, he had also been keeping an eye on Zi Yi.

The moment he saw that Zi Yi had not drunk from the glass, even after such a long time, he guessed that Elson’s plan was definitely going to fail.

He narrowed his eyes and checked out the venue, only to discover that Lu Zhiheng was currently discussing with a few other presidents of technology companies.

He pondered for a second before he informed the group he was in and left elsewhere.

Rick happened to hear Lu Zhiheng speaking with great enthusiasm when he made his way over. “I feel that technology can only advance through collaborative efforts. Therefore, I intend to find a few partners in the near future.”

Rick stopped walking when he heard what Lu Zhiheng said.

He leaned against a decorative shelf with a glass in his hand and twirled it around as he listened to Lu Zhiheng boasting with great interest.

Sure enough, those people around him had expressed great interest and said that they were all willing to cooperate with him.

Just then, a blond-haired man with amber eyes, and who was of a similar age as Rick, had walked over.

None of them said anything and merely toasted each other. After taking a sip, Nibert said, “The Lu Group is only stronger under Lu Jingye’s hands. From the looks of it, the current President doesn’t seem to be very smart.”

Rick laughed and did not comment on it. Instead, he said, “There’s no need to lay bare what you see. We only have to wait to watch a good show.”

“Haha… However, the Lu Groups’ cutting-edge technology is a huge piece of cake. No one can remain unmoved.”

“No no no…” Rick did not think that way. “Rather than sharing that cake with the Lu Group, it’s better to get the cake’s recipe. Mr. Nibert, don’t you agree with me?”

“Haha… Mr. Rick sure is far-sighted.”

They smiled at each other and tacitly took another sip of wine.

Nibert said, “I heard that Lu Jingye will be making great moves in the jewelry industry. What are your thoughts about this?”

Rick asked a rhetorical question instead of answering, “Do you think Lu Jingye would release such important news when he had not made plans in advance?”

Nibert’s expression stiffened for a second before he seemed to have received enlightenment. “I knew it… but then Lu Jingye will definitely be making a great move in the jewelry industry. Where do you think he will start?”

Rick tapped the glass and said with certainty, “Based on Lu Jingye’s habits, he will definitely develop the Song Jewelry to be the best amongst its competition.”

“You mean that he might probably be after diamonds or precious stones”

“That’s right.”

The both of them laughed at the same time once again.

After talking to the group of bosses from the automobile industry for more than half an hour, Zi Yi said, “Take your time and continue chatting.”

She then walked elsewhere with the glass of red wine in her hand.

The purpose of her trip today was not for automobile technology. Instead, it was aerospace technology.

It just so happened that the middle-aged man who wore a unique hat today was the head of a privately run airline company.

He was from Country K and his name was Colin.

Colin was already in his fifties and he had suffered tons of hardship due to internal family strife. He had been backstabbed before and following that, he relied on his capabilities to develop the company to where it is today.

There were several people surrounding him at that moment. There were people who wanted to befriend him and also those who wanted to collaborate. However, Colin was a rather weird person and he only spoke in his own language. Moreover, it was one of the uncommon dialects in his country.

Not to mention, he did not bring along an interpreter with him.

“Mr. Colin, I heard that your aerospace company has recently developed a new type of fiber material which is more heat-resistant when compared to the titanium fiber that is available on the market. I believe the cost of these materials should be rather high, I wonder if you are interested in finding a partner?”

After one of the people asked this question, Colin had also replied.

However, no one understood what he was saying. They only managed to understand the general idea of what he said from how he shook his head.

The few big shots surrounding Colin appeared to be disappointed.

Colin did not seem as if he wanted to communicate with them using another universal language. Just then, he said something else.

None of them could understand.

“Mr. Colin is saying that this kind of material is still in its research and development stage and there are no plans to release them in the market as of now yet. As to whether he plans to find a partner or not, he will only make a decision after looking at the costs.”

A crisp and sweet-sounding voice sounded from behind and a few of them subconsciously turned around.

“Miss Zi.”

Zi Yi’s appearance was too outstanding and coupled with what had happened in the afternoon, it could be said that everyone present knew who she was.
