After hearing Xiang Wanli's words, Cheng Xiaofan nodded and smiled, "Alright, if you don't drink, then have some roasted meat."
"The roasted meat I make is absolutely the most delicious in the world!"
Xiang Wanli was not polite.
She picked up her chopsticks, grabbed a piece of roasted meat, and put it into her mouth.
"Wow!"
She couldn't help but exclaim, "Mr. Cheng, what kind of meat is this? It smells so good!"
Cheng Xiaofan smiled and said, "This is roasted beef!"
In fact, it was roasted river monster meat.
But he couldn't say that.
If he said it, it would be difficult to explain its origin.
Hearing this, Xiang Wanli said, "I never imagined that roasted beef could be so tender and fragrant. It's truly delicious!"
At this moment.
Cheng Xiaofan poured a cup of wine for Yang Jigang and himself.
The wine exuded a rich aroma.
It directly tickled their noses.
Yang Jigang picked up his wine glass and took a small sip.
His face immediately showed a look of intoxication.
"Wow, what great wine!"
He couldn't help but exclaim, "Mr. Cheng, I've had Tu Fengzi's Thousand Day Drunkenness many times, but it never tasted as good as yours!"
Cheng Xiaofan laughed and said, "Actually, this wine was given to me by Tu Fengzi."
"But after it came into my hands, I filtered it with spiritual energy."
Yang Jigang had been in the Jianghu Affairs Bureau for some time.
He naturally knew what spiritual energy was.
The three of them ate with great relish.
Some people, led by Zhu Bailin, could only watch from the side, their eyes dry.
They kept swallowing their saliva.
Some even regretted choosing the wrong side.
They shouldn't have sided with Zhu Bailin.
Who was Zhu Bailin?
He was a notorious dandy from the capital.
What advantage could they gain by associating with him?
Otherwise.
There wouldn't be only three people sitting here eating roasted beef and drinking fine wine.
At least, they would have been part of it.
"Xiang Wanli, this can't go on!"
At this moment, Yang Jigang sighed, "Mr. Cheng is treating us to a feast tonight."
"But what about tomorrow?"
"What about after that?"
"It seems that Dan Wan Country clearly doesn't take us seriously!"
Hearing this, Xiang Wanli was worried.
After all, she was the person in charge of the Health Commission.
She was the leader of this team on this overseas trip.
Some matters required her to step forward and resolve them.
She sighed.
And said, "Tomorrow, I'll talk to Ross again!"
Even though she knew the hope was slim, she had to try.
Cheng Xiaofan chuckled and said, "Beauty Xiang, don't bother looking for that Ross."
"It's like spitting in the wind, utterly futile!"
Xiang Wanli said, "But we can't always be in this situation."
Cheng Xiaofan smiled and said, "We in Huaxia have a saying, 'It's better to eat plain rice with a happy heart than a feast with a frown.' Things obtained through begging don't taste good!"
"Besides, I have a premonition that things will turn around tomorrow."
Xiang Wanli asked curiously, "Mr. Cheng, what kind of turning point are you referring to?"
Cheng Xiaofan smiled slightly and said, "This turning point is that Dan Wan Country will beg us, move us into the best rooms, and treat us to the finest cuisine!"
Xiang Wanli said, "Why would something like this happen?"
Cheng Xiaofan laughed and said, "Because among all the foreign visitors, only I can help them solve the virus outbreak in Dan Wan Country!"
"Don't look at how arrogant they are now, like peacocks."
"Just wait and see tomorrow!"
"That Ross will also kneel before me and apologize!"
"Hahaha!"
Zhu Bailin once again burst into a manic laugh.
"Did you all hear that? Ross will kneel before him and apologize?"
"This guy is getting more and more insane, talking about premonitions!"
"So many people have come from all over the world, and only he can solve Dan Wan Country's virus?"
"I've seen arrogant people before, but I've never seen anyone as arrogant as him!"
"Young Master Zhu, can you say a little less?"
Someone immediately retorted, "We're all here together, is there a need to make things so unpleasant?"
Zhu Bailin, with an unhappy expression, shouted at the other person, "Which side are you on?"
"Am I wrong?"
Xiang Wanli frowned and said sternly, "Zhu Bailin, shut up!"
"If you continue to bark wildly like a dog, I'll kick you out immediately."
Yang Jigang also ignored Zhu Bailin.
He said, "Zhu, don't rely on your father's petty influence to act recklessly here. Please have some self-respect."
Zhu Bailin remained defiant, saying, "I'm telling the truth."
"Oh, right, didn't he brag on the plane that Li Jieqiong transferred the company to him?"
"And he dared to claim that Li Jieqiong was working for him."
"I happen to have Li Jieqiong's contact information, I'll call her right away."
"You all wait and see how I expose this swindler's true face with facts!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he took out his phone.
He even said triumphantly to Cheng Xiaofan, "Kid, are you scared?"
"If you're scared, then beg for mercy!"
Cheng Xiaofan snorted in response.
He said, "Stop your nonsense, just make the call!"
Zhu Bailin laughed heartily, "Kid, you're still putting up a tough front?"
"I can clearly see that you're already guilty and nervous."
"You're trembling all over!"
"Do you think you can win a beautiful woman's favor by bragging?"
"Let me tell you, bragging comes with a price!"
So that everyone present could hear his conversation with Li Jieqiong.
While dialing, he deliberately pressed the speakerphone button.
"Beep—"
The call was connected.
Instantly!
Li Jieqiong's voice came from Zhu Bailin's phone.
"It's Zhu Bailin. What's the matter with your call?"
Zhu Bailin immediately said, "Aunt Li, I'm calling to ask you about someone. Do you know a person named Cheng Xiaofan?"
Li Jieqiong asked, "What do you mean?"
Zhu Bailin said, "The thing is, there's a virus outbreak in Dan Wan Country."
"Huaxia, through the Health Commission, has organized an aid team and arrived in Dan Wan Country."
"I managed to get a spot and found that there's someone named Cheng Xiaofan in the team."
"Zhu Bailin, you're not joking with me, are you?"
As soon as Zhu Bailin finished speaking, Li Jieqiong said, "You're just a dissolute young man with no education. What are you doing tagging along and causing trouble? What can you do by squeezing in?"
"Are you going to Dan Wan Country to look for gold, or are you interested in their beautiful women?"
"This..."
Zhu Bailin's expression immediately turned as if he had eaten feces.
His mouth twitched uncontrollably.
He said, "Aunt Li, don't talk about that!"
"I heard that guy surnamed Cheng bragging,"
"That you've transferred your entire company and group to him."
"And now, you're working for him. Is there such a thing?"
"Tell me, is it true or not!"
"Silence!"
Li Jieqiong's scolding voice came from the phone, "Mr. Cheng is my idol!"
"Please be respectful to him!"
"I transferred my company and group to Mr. Cheng."
"That was my willing act."
"What business is it of yours!"
