He Zhentian was about to go mad, but he did not dare to show it.

“Old Master Yao, what’s wrong with my proposal?”

He Zhentian struggled, despite knowing that he was on his deathbed.

“I pay more attention to first impressions instead of proposals.” Yao Zhenfeng smiled.

“I admire Ms. Zhou Wanqiu very much. You make me uncomfortable!”

“Therefore, He Catering Group is eliminated! Are you satisfied with this answer?”

With that, Yao Zhenfeng turned around and left.

Zhou Wanqiu was pleasantly surprised and excited as she quickly followed him.

He Zhentian was stunned. He looked like he had just swallowed a fly alive!

It had been many years!

It had been many years since he had been humiliated like this!

However, the Yao family from the provincial capital had been the one to humiliate him like this.

He had no choice but to endure it.

“All!”

He Zhentian’s veins bulged as he suppressed his anger.

Beside him…

“Don’t worry, President He,” Wu Yiqi advised, trembling with fear. “You didn’t get the contract, but maybe Zhou Wanqiu might not be able to…”

Slap!

Before Wu Yiqi could finish talking, He Zhentian slapped him across the face.

“You piece of trash! If you hadn’t insisted on showing off to Zhou Pingjiang and Zhou Wanqiu, would she even be here tonight? How could things have changed so quickly?” He Zhentian’s breathing quickened. He was furious.

After yelling at him, he turned around and left.

Wu Yiqi covered his face. He felt mistreated, but he didn’t dare to say anything.

He couldn’t figure it out either.

Yao Zhenfeng had obviously wanted to meet He Zhentian, so why did he suddenly change his mind now?

Could it be that Zhou Wanqiu was really so attractive that she swayed him at first sight?

“Dad!” Wu Renxing said, coming over. “I told you. Zhou Wanqiu is good-looking. She has privilege!”

“Look at her now. She didn’t even receive an invitation, and Old Master Yao has already taken a fancy to her!”

“I think you should discuss this with Zhou Pingjiang. If Zhou Wanqiu marries me, our family will definitely benefit!”

Wu Yiqi looked at the lustful Wu Renxing.

In an instant, anger swelled his heart!

He stepped forward and kicked Wu Renxing.

“F*ck you!”

“All you can think about is how beautiful Zhou Wanqiu is!”

“I got beaten up, and you didn’t even care! F*ckyou!”

Wu Yiqi kicked Wu Renxing to vent his anger.

Soon, the two of them got the attention of the hotel security.

“What are you doing? Fighting is not allowed here!”

In the end, the father and son were thrown out of the hotel by the security guards.

Zhou Wanqiu and Su Chen followed Yao Zhenfeng into the private room.

“Old Master Yao, this is Zhou Catering Group’s proposal.”

“We promise that we will make the food center project a huge success for Binjiang Entertainment City. Please take a look.”

Zhou Wanqiu handed over the proposal.

Yao Zhenfeng smiled and flipped through it.

In less than 30 seconds, he handed the proposal back to Zhou Wanqiu.

“Alright, I’ve finished reading it. It’s very good! The Binjiang Entertainment City food center project will be handed over to your corporation!” Yao Zhenfeng said with a smile. Zhou Wanqiu was dumbfounded.

He had finished reading it in 30 seconds?

Even if he read one page every second, he wouldn’t be able to finish it that quickly!

Zhou Wanqiu was in a daze, so Su Chen tugged at her arm.

Zhou Wanqiu immediately came back to her senses and said excitedly, “Thank you, Old Master Yao. Don’t worry. We won’t let you down!”

“CEO Zhou, 1 believe in your talent and your company!” Yao Zhenfeng said with a smile.

“Alright, I’ve already gotten someone to draft the preliminary contract. We ll sign it later. Let’s eat first!”

As he spoke, Yao Zhenfeng took the lead and sat down at the dining table.

Zhou Wanqiu was stunned and sat down.

What was going on?

Did she really manage to secure such a huge project in just a few minutes?

“Old Master Yao, do you want to take a closer look at this plan? If you have any opinions about it, we can make adjustments,” Zhou Wanqiu said seriously.

Yao Zhenfeng smiled and said, “The business deal has been settled, so there’s no need to mention it anymore. Let’s not talk about work now. Don’t call me Old Master Yao. Just call me Grandpa.”

As he spoke, Yao Zhenfeng looked at Su Chen beside him. “This young man is Su Chen, right? You can call me Grandpa, too!”

Zhou Wanqiu was dumbfounded.

Su Chen was also baffled.

This old man was really pushing it!

However, seeing that he was about the same age as his grandfather, he decided to act as his grandson.

Beside him, Li Yiting and Yao Nana were suppressing their laughter.

The dishes were quickly served, and everyone sat down to eat.

Although Yao Zhenfeng no longer talked about business, he was charismatic enough that the atmosphere remained lively.

He casually brought up a few interesting topics, and soon, everyone was laughing.

Occasionally, he would answer Zhou Wanqiu’s questions, and she learned a lot from his answers.

The atmosphere at the dining table became more and more harmonious.

Zhou Wanqiu also slowly relaxed when she realized how friendly Yao Zhenfeng was. She dropped the formalities.

However, she still did not understand.

Why was the old master of the Yao family being so nice to her?

After a meal, they were about to part.

However, Zhou Wanqiu’s question hadn’t been answered.

Before he left…

Yao Zhenfeng, Li Yiting, and Yao Nana even walked them to the elevator.

This made Zhou Wanqiu feel even more flattered.

While waiting for the elevator, Zhou Wanqiu asked again, “Grandpa Yao, I want to ask you something. Why did you choose Zhou Catering Group?”

She wanted to add “so casually” but she didn’t in the end.

Yao Zhenfeng smiled.

“I knew it. If 1 didn’t explain it to you, you wouldn’t let it go!”

“Actually, I’ve looked into all the food and beverage groups in Bin Cheng. He Catering

Group seems to be more well-known and influential.”

“However, in terms of reputation and quality, your Zhou Catering Group is superior!”

Yao Zhenfeng provided a serious analysis.

Su Chen remained silent and laughed internally.

This old man was quite good at bullsh*tting!

He hadn’t even heard about Zhou Catering Group before this, but now he was acting like he had known about them all along.

Zhou Wanqiu nodded excitedly. “Grandpa Yao, don’t worry. Quality and reputation have always been our top priorities. The food center project will be a huge success!”

Although she was still a little skeptical, his answer seemed reasonable.

The elevator arrived.

“Goodbye, Grandpa Yao!” Zhou Wanqiu smiled sweetly.

Yao Zhenfeng smiled and nodded, then looked at Su Chen.

Su Chen was stunned.

Zhou Wanqiu secretly pinched him.

The corner of Su Chen’s mouth twitched. He said, “Goodbye, Grandpa Yao!”

This time, Yao Zhenfeng laughed out loud and said, “Goodbye! Be careful on the road! If you have time, let’s meet up again!”

Zhou Wanqiu replied happily, “Okay, Grandpa Yao.”

As for Su Chen, he stopped paying attention to this childish old man.

Su Chen and Zhou Wanqiu left.

Yao Nana laughed out loud. “Haha, Grandpa, you asked Su Chen to call you Grandpa. He’s probably speechless.”

“At my age, he should be calling me that!” Yao Zhenfeng smiled. “Plus, this means we’re closer now.”

“Oh right,” Yao Zhenfeng suddenly said. “Did you notice that Su Chen and Zhou Wanqiu have a special relationship?”

“That’s true,” Li Yiting said. “They seem to be quite close, but there’s also a certain distance between them. It’s very strange.”

Yao Zhenfeng nodded. “However, Su Chen obviously sides with the Zhou family. Since that’s the case, we should work with the Zhou family.”

“Nana, remember to tell your dad. Be nice to the Zhou family throughout our cooperation with them.”

“Okay, Grandpa.” Yao Nana quickly replied.

Meanwhile…

The two of them walked out of the hotel.

Zhou Wanqiu excitedly took out her phone and reported the good news to Zhou Pingjiang.

“Dad! The Binjiang Entertainment City food center project is ours!”

“I negotiated and got it!”

Zhou Wanqiu’s tone was filled with excitement.

“Wanqiu, what did you say?”

Zhou Pingjiang was shocked and ecstatic.

He quickly asked Zhou Wanqiu to tell him what happened.

From leaving the hotel to getting into the car, Zhou Wanqiu kept talking about her meeting with Yao Zhenfeng.

Zhou Pingjiang was also very excited.

“Alright, Dad. I need to drive. I’ll tell you more when I get back!” Zhou Wanqiu said.

They hung up.

Zhou Wanqiu was in a good mood. She started humming as she drove.

She even chatted with Su Chen.

Su Chen smiled at Zhou Wanqiu..
