Chapter 4044: Chapter 4044: She Shamelessly Crashes the Dinner Party
"Mhm."
Zhang Yang thought for a moment and added, "I’ll also find a few people. The more, the merrier~"
Miss Qiao didn’t like crowds, but Young Master Qin did.
He didn’t invite too many people, but everyone who knows how to host knows the basic rule — with fewer people, the atmosphere gets cold, and it’s no fun.
Zhang Yang, being the top player among them, naturally knew how to arrange things to ensure that the people he wanted to maintain relationships with would enjoy themselves.
**
Since everyone agreed on meeting in the afternoon.
Zhang Yang got the club owner to reserve the biggest private room and arranged for several bottles of fine wine.
He arrived an hour early, spoke to the owner to find a few discreet and smart waiters, and personally checked the drinks.
At 2:30 PM.
Half an hour before the scheduled time of 3 PM, people began to arrive one after another.
Tang Ning was early.
She was among the first to arrive.
Upon her arrival, she greeted Zhang Yang and then sat down beside him, asking, "Miss Qiao and the others haven’t arrived yet?"
Zhang Yang glanced at his watch, leaned back on the leather sofa, and replied unconcernedly, "It’s still early, just wait."
As they waited, instead of Qiao Nian and Ye Wangchuan, an unexpected guest arrived.
When the private room’s door opened, a young man with vibrant green feathers and Li Mo appeared at the entrance.
Zhang Yang and Tang Ning both frowned simultaneously.
Both thought — why is she here?
Zhang Yang even put down his sunflower seeds, seemingly unprepared for Li Mo’s arrival, and for a moment, he couldn’t control his facial expression, almost giving himself away.
"Miss Li, come in and take a seat." The one who brought Li Mo was a guy named Lu Yue, who had some family connections, qualifying him as a third generation.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t mix into Zhang Yang’s social circle.
Lu Yue was a typical spoiled young master, coming from a wealthy family, sent abroad to study at an early age and managed to get into Stanford University, completing both undergraduate and master’s degrees in his early twenties.
Then he returned with a ’gold-plated’ high education but didn’t smoothly enter the elite circle as his family expected.
Instead, he ended up like other non-academic second generations, only knowing how to play every day, failing at whatever he invested in, with mediocre emotional intelligence.
Zhang Yang agreed to play with him, partly due to their families’ previous generations having some friendships, and partly because even though Lu Yue had low emotional intelligence, he was straightforward.
In a circle like theirs, Zhang Yang had seen many who were overly cunning, making him appreciate Lu Yue’s straightforwardness now and then.
Who knew, today this simpleton would teach him a lesson, showing what ’low emotional intelligence and no brains’ really meant.
Li Mo, under Lu Yue’s invitation, found a place to sit down.
"Thank you."
"You’re welcome."
Lu Yue scratched his head awkwardly, turning around to see Zhang Yang staring at them wide-eyed, suddenly realizing and explained, "I ran into Miss Li at lunch; she invited me for afternoon tea. I figured since there was this gathering, I’d invite Miss Li along."
"Hehe, Brother Yang, you don’t mind an extra person, right?" He even rubbed his hands, looking a bit embarrassed.
It made Zhang Yang’s blood pressure spike, struggling to keep from spitting blood, he gritted his teeth and replied, "Hehe, no problem."
The situation having developed this far.
Zhang Yang had to keep appearances.
So, after Lu Yue finished speaking, Zhang Yang proactively spoke to Li Mo, "Today is just a small gathering; I didn’t know if you were available, so I was hesitant to invite you."
Look at that, how sincere and naturally he explained.
