To make a horse run fast, you must give it plenty of feed. He believed that great rewards would surely bring forth brave men.
As long as the red line was drawn and the goal was set, with his ability to purchase raw stones and this gold, he was sure he could earn the money for upgrading his abilities.
While the three of them were talking, all the dishes had been served.
"Mr. Guo, I'll toast you first. Thank you, Mr. Guo, for taking care of me," Wang Shiping said, raising his wine glass.
"It's our first time drinking together, so let's just have a drink to get acquainted. It's not about taking care of anyone; I should thank you for giving me the opportunity to get such a good shop," Guo Xuyang said, finishing the wine in his glass.
"Mr. Guo, let's also have a drink to get acquainted. Thank you, Mr. Guo, for your support," Xu Liping said, lifting her glass.
The three of them exchanged toasts, and the two bottles of baijiu were quickly emptied.
Otherwise, why did people say that women at the drinking table either didn't drink or could drink endlessly?
Any woman who could hold a wine glass had to be able to drink at least half a kilogram, and it seemed that Xu Liping was also a seasoned drinker today.
Wang Shiping, however, was starting to buckle. His gaze was clearly unfocused and blurry.
"Mr. Gu-Guo, a-afterwards, I'll take you upstairs to have some fun," he said, speaking with a stutter but managing to make himself understood. "There are many, many projects upstairs. I'll take you to relax your muscles and take a bath, and then find a beautiful woman to keep you company."
"Thank you for your kind offer, Boss Wang. I've had a bit too much to drink today, so I won't be going up. I'll treat you another day," Guo Xuyang declined.
"Are-are you still a virgin? Hahaha, don't blame me for being too blunt. I'll take you to indulge," Wang Shiping said, swaying and preparing to stand up, but he stumbled and almost fell. Fortunately, Guo Xuyang caught him, preventing him from falling.
"It's-it's okay, I'm fine, I can walk, you don't need to help me," Wang Shiping said, brushing away Guo Xuyang's hand that was supporting his arm. "Miss Xu, p-please help Mr. Guo and follow me, we're going up."
Xu Liping reached out to help Guo Xuyang, but he stopped her.
"I'm fine. How about you help Mr. Wang get home?"
Xu Liping saw that Guo Xuyang was indeed not drunk and stepped forward to help Wang Shiping up.
"It's okay, it's okay, we'll go upstairs later. Miss Xu, you should go back. Please drive slowly on the road. Try to find a designated driver, or if not, don't leave. Just get a room at this hotel and rest here."
Although he had drunk a lot, his mind was still relatively clear, and he knew how to consider others.
"Are you going back, or...?" Xu Liping asked.
"I'm going upstairs. You don't need to ask. Mr. Guo, let's go upstairs."
Seeing that Wang Shiping had drunk a lot, the server at the door came to help support him.
"Beautiful, take me to the 26th floor. I'm a member here. Tonight, I want to find a girl to help me relax my muscles. And this handsome guy, we're together."
Wang Shiping said, pulling out a golden card from his pocket.
"Yes, sir. Please follow me," the server said, escorting Wang Shiping out of the restaurant.
Guo Xuyang glanced at Xu Liping and said, "You should probably get a room here and stay overnight. I see you've also had quite a bit to drink today. You don't need to worry about me; we've already booked a room here for noon today. I'll take Boss Wang upstairs first. You go and rest."
Saying this, he quickened his pace and hurried towards Wang Shiping.
"A man's mouth is a deceptive mouth. Go when you say you'll go, no need for so many excuses," Xu Liping muttered to herself.
She got up, picked up her handbag, and walked downstairs.
The 26th floor was composed of countless rooms, large and small, with a beautiful young lady waiting at the door of each room.
At the entrances and exits of the floor, a dozen robust men stood guard.
When Guo Xuyang arrived upstairs with Wang Shiping, the server supporting Wang Shiping showed a golden card, and two beautiful women came to help Wang Shiping into a room.
Two other women approached to help Guo Xuyang in, but he refused.
Seeing that Wang Shiping had safely reached the upper floor, he felt relieved.
"I'm here to see off a friend, so I won't be coming in. Please take good care of this friend," he said, turning to go downstairs.
"Mr. Guo," a voice called out to him.
He turned his head and saw that it was Jiang Qixin, who had just come out of the elevator.
"Hello, Mr. Jiang," Guo Xuyang quickly greeted him.
"I didn't expect you to arrive before me. What's going on here?"
"I just sent a friend upstairs and was about to go down to rest."
"When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Since you're here, why not come and relax your muscles together? The muscle relaxation here is quite good."
"As Mr. Jiang said, I'd be happy to oblige," Guo Xuyang said, following Jiang Qixin to a corner room.
This room was over three hundred square meters and had a large pool, the water in which was very clear, resembling a large public bath. On the edge of the pool were two super-large waterbeds, with two beautiful women in bikinis lying on each bed.
Seeing Guo Xuyang and the other man enter, the four women quickly got off the waterbeds and escorted each of them into the rooms on either side.
Guo Xuyang looked at the suite, which was less than thirty square meters, and it also had a bed, but it was a massage bed.
Beside the massage bed were four small cart-like cabinets, on which were placed many cosmetics, as well as nail clippers, electric hair clippers, and other indescribable items, which made him blush.
It was his first time in such a place. He truly didn't understand the world of the rich.
The two beautiful women wanted to help him undress, but he refused. He slowly took off his jacket himself.
These were clothes that Li Minxi had bought for him last time after they went shopping for mobile phones.
He couldn't refuse them; she had bought him two sets of formal wear and two sets of casual wear, and a large bag of shirts and underwear.
Of course, she and Su Ran had also bought a lot. The car was packed full.
After taking off his jacket, a beautiful woman handed him a bathrobe and asked him to take off all his clothes so she could give him an oil massage and relax his muscles.
Feeling embarrassed, he kept on a small pair of briefs.
The two beautiful women helped him put on the bathrobe and accompanied him out to jump into the large pool.
"What? Feeling self-conscious?" Jiang Qixin, who was already soaking in the pool, said with a smile upon seeing him enter the pool wearing only his briefs.
"Since you've come, you should enjoy yourself. Otherwise, wouldn't the substantial membership fees paid each year be wasted?"
"You're a member too?" he asked a foolish question.
Wouldn't he be able to come up if he wasn't a member? He regretted asking as soon as he finished.
"No. This was arranged by Xiao Liu." To his surprise, Jiang Qixin answered this way.
That made sense; it was indeed inconvenient for someone of his status to handle such matters himself.
