Chapter 871: Still Talking About Dreams?
At a roadside barbecue stall, beer was placed all around.
Looking around while a bit drunk, Lu Tao couldn't help but hiccup and say, "He hasn't come yet?"
"Zhang Cheng is so busy now, you're asking him to come over now, isn't that making things difficult for him?"
Looking at Lu Tao, Xiang Nan beside him hurriedly explained.
He was someone who had come ashore. Although he didn't like socializing, he also knew that some things couldn't be rushed!
As the person who developed the best among their university classmates, they had never given any help from beginning to end. He relied on himself, step by step, to get to where he was today!
"Lu Tao, drink less!"
Looking at Lu Tao before him, Mi Lai couldn't help but step forward to comfort him.
And hearing Mi Lai's words, Lu Tao backhandedly pushed her away and said, "I don't need you to worry about me!"
Losing the support of his father Lu Yaxun, and Xu Zhisen behind him, Lu Tao was truly at his wit's end at this moment.
After all, Mi Lixiong was willing to help Lu Tao back then because the other party still had those two people standing behind him. But now, Lu Tao had nothing, so would Mi Lixiong still help him unhesitatingly? Stop joking, he wasn't a fool!
Businessmen only choose to enter when they see profit, but now Lu Tao was an expired lottery ticket!
And just as the few were talking, a black sedan stopped by the side of the road.
Getting off the car, Zhang Cheng was wearing a suit and tie and sat down, saying, "Everyone is here!"
"You finally came, Lu Tao is already drunk!"
Looking at Zhang Cheng, Xiang Nan immediately looked at him cryptically.
Hearing Xiang Nan's words, Zhang Cheng immediately smiled and said, "Alright, I understand! You don't need to worry!"
"Chairman Zhang, Xiang Nan and I are getting married soon, what do you plan to give?"
Looking at Zhang Cheng with a full face of smiles, Yang Xiaoyun couldn't help but smile.
Looking at Yang Xiaoyun, Zhang Cheng teased, "Whatever wedding gift you want, I have a property that was just built, why don't you go pick a set, I'll give you an interest-free loan!"
"Really or fake, Zhang Cheng!"
Looking at Zhang Cheng in excitement, Yang Xiaoyun was instantly thrilled.
"Hey, hey, hey, no need, although we are brothers, I won't eat your sugar-coated bullets!"
Hearing Zhang Cheng say this, Xiang Nan hurriedly refused.
"Alright, I know we're brothers, so don't say so much, come, drink!"
Raising the wine bottle in his hand, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but look at Xiang Nan.
Because there weren't many places he could help Xiang Nan. The other party belonged to the kind of person who is content with what they have and wouldn't take the initiative to ask him for help.
And it was precisely because of this kind of person that Zhang Cheng would help the other party.
"Brother Zhang, you're so domineering, why don't you solve my problem here too?"
Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Huazi beside him also smiled.
"Sure, you go find a marriage partner, I'll save a house for you, right next to Xiang Nan, how about that!"
Looking at Huazi before him, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but tease.
"These words are what you said, don't go back on your word when the time comes, then we'll be neighbors again, Xiang Nan!"
Wrapping his arm around Xiang Nan's neck, Huazi laughed loudly.
"Zhang Cheng, look at your company..."
And before Huazi could finish being happy, Mi Lai revealed a trace of an awkward expression.
Hearing Mi Lai's words, Zhang Cheng looked at her and said, "You also want to find a job, Miss Mi Lai?"
"What Miss or not, I just want to help Lu Tao!"
Speaking to Zhang Cheng, Mi Lai couldn't help but ask.
And hearing Mi Lai's words, Zhang Cheng looked at Lu Tao's half-dreaming, half-waking appearance and said, "Look at him like this, can he still work? Living in a drunken stupor all day, and still struggling, what has he struggled for?"
"What are you saying? Zhang Cheng, Lu Tao is also very hard-working, okay! It's just that he hasn't met..."
Watching Zhang Cheng belittle Lu Tao like this, Mi Lai immediately became angry.
"Hasn't met what? A good master, or a Bole? Look at how he played a good hand into a mess. We won't mention his character. He likes your best friend Xia Lin. As for doing things, does Lu Tao have the qualification to say he's better than our ability?"
Looking at Mi Lai, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but question.
"Zhang Cheng, these words of yours are too much!"
Looking at Zhang Cheng in anger, Mi Lai couldn't help but scold.
"I'm too much? Why don't you let Lu Tao say it himself? Can't bring himself to do it, right? Back in university, besides Huazi and Xiang Nan, did you, Lu Tao, ever look at me straight?"
Slapping the table and scolding, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but raise the wine bottle in his hand and said, "The three of us are all struggling for our own dreams, but what about him? He only knows how to talk about dreams all day long. What am I talking about? You should go find a job. Xu Zhisen was destroyed by me. Have you forgotten even your ability as a designer..."
Scolding Lu Tao, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but raise the wine bottle and pour it down.
And hearing Zhang Cheng's words, everyone's faces were full of difficulty at this moment, because just as he said, after Xu Zhisen ran away, Lu Tao really didn't have a job here.
After all, although Xia Lin was gone, there was still Mi Lai, right? She was the one covering for him!
Lu Tao treating everyone to dinner tonight was likely paid for by Mi Lai.
But it was also because Mi Lai kept indulging Lu Tao that he had become like this now!
"Enough, Zhang Cheng, you can belittle me, but I'm not without ability!"
Looking at Zhang Cheng, Lu Tao couldn't help but roar angrily.
"Ability? Where is your ability? Is your ability to let Xu Zhisen cover for you? I'm telling you, Xu Zhisen ran away long ago. His foreign trade lost 800 million, and now he's gone abroad..."
Slapping the table and scolding, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but speak coldly.
And hearing Zhang Cheng say this, everyone was stunned on the spot, because no one expected that the once-majestic Xu Zhisen would go bankrupt and run away!
"I didn't want to rely on Xu Zhisen, I..."
Looking at Zhang Cheng saying this, Lu Tao immediately defended himself.
But looking at Lu Tao, Zhang Cheng sneered and said, "You want to say, you want to rely on your strength? You f***ing have strength? You're just yelling here. Everyone sitting here, who isn't better than you? Huazi is poor at home, but he has ability. Xiang Nan prefers life. And me? You f***ing can compare with me? I started with earthwork, fought all the way from the Second Ring Road to abroad with a pair of fists, and now I'm worth hundreds of billions..."
Mocking Lu Tao until he was speechless, Zhang Cheng then said, "Without Mi Lai helping you, can you take out three hundred yuan from your pocket? You're almost twenty-four or twenty-five, and you still talk about struggling all day long. You f***ing stand up and show me!"
Looking at Lu Tao with disgust, Zhang Cheng stood up and said, "Our group's design department won't use someone who only knows about dreams all day long but doesn't know how to be down-to-earth. I'll have the driver settle the bill, let's gather next time!"
Saying this, Zhang Cheng turned and left.
If Lu Tao could see reality clearly, Zhang Cheng would be willing to help him, but he couldn't even eat without someone feeding him. And this kind of person easily falls into a trash can on the side of the road abroad!
Returning to the car, Zhang Cheng had Da Kang drive away.
Not long after leaving, Zhang Cheng stood at the location of Sanli River, watching the clear breeze blow by.
However, just at this moment, Zhang Cheng heard a sound coming from afar.
"What do you want to do? What do you want to do?"
Looking at the people before her in fear, Luo Yiren couldn't help but step back, a look of fear appearing on her face.
"Don't be afraid, we brothers just see that you're beautiful and want to have some fun. Don't scream, because even if you scream until your throat breaks, no one will come to save you!"
Revealing a smile, the man looked at Luo Yiren and couldn't help but lick his lips.
But just in the next second, he looked at Zhang Cheng who was walking over from the side and said, "No, who the f*** are you!"
"Me? Throat-breaking?"
Pointing at himself, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you looking for me?"
