C693 Making up Stories
Su Nan smiled and handed over a business card. She was really happy to meet her old classmate here.
"Me... My business is overseas and I haven't considered returning to China for the time being. Let's talk about this later. We haven't seen each other for a long time. Let's have a good drink today."
Manny quickly changed the topic because her precise occupation was actually a green tea.
Relying on her looks, she spent her days mixing around with different men. However, there were a few foolish and rich tycoons who took the bait and let her get some money.
However, she was not a thrifty person. Every day, she spent all kinds of luxury goods, spending a lot of money, and she spent almost all of the money in a few moments.
So this time, she decided to make a big deal. She set her sights on young master Jani. She did not expect that he would not care about her at all.
However, she was not angry. As long as she helped young master Jani settle Su Nan today, there would definitely be benefits for her.
When she met her old classmate, the topic naturally could not be excluded from the beautiful memories of her school days back then.
"Do you still remember the English teacher in our class in the past? Now that he has gone to work at the translation bureau, he is getting better and better..."
Before Su Nan finished speaking, Manny suddenly opened her mouth and said, "Nan, I have a few very good friends over there. I will bring you over to greet them."
"Ah?"
Su Nan seemed to be a little hesitant. She was not good at socializing and had just sat down to chat a little before asking her to go and greet people. It seemed a little rude.
"Why don't we just forget about it. You know that I am a timid person..."
Before Su Nan could finish speaking, Manny warmly held her hand and smiled. "It's fine, I'm here."
"My friends are all important people. You should also expand your connections."
After saying that, she did not allow any explanation. She pulled Su Nan and walked towards Jenne's table.
"Young Master Jenne, this is my classmate, Su Nan. She used to be the campus belle of our school. Now, she has opened a clothing company in the country. Her career has just started. In the future, she will have to rely on you to take care of her."
Manny introduced her warmly.
Jenne's gaze paused on Su Nan for a few seconds, then she quickly stood up and very gentlemanly extended a hand. "Hello, Miss Su. It's an honor to meet you."
"Mmm... Hello, I'm also very happy to meet you."
Su Nan felt somewhat unnatural when she stretched out her hand. She did not know why, although this young master Jenne in front of her looked gentle, Su Nan kept feeling that there was something wrong with his body.
But as for exactly what was wrong, Su Nan herself could not tell.
"Nan, let me introduce to you grandly. This is Jani, the eldest young master and only heir of the famous Black Gold Family in Yi Country."
"Especially the clothing industry. Almost half of the clothing brands you can name are controlled by the Black Gold Family."
"Young master Jani, this is my best sister. You have to take care of her in the future."
Manny said with a smile.
"It's not a big deal. It's my honor to be able to serve Miss Su. In the future, if Miss Su needs anything, just contact me."
Jenne said very elegantly, then very gentlemanly moved a chair and made a gesture of invitation to Su Nan.
Su Nan seemed to be in a dilemma. She originally only wanted to say hello and leave, but she did not want to sit here with a group of people she was not familiar with.
"Nan, what are you still standing there for? Quickly sit down. These are all very good friends of mine. We must drink more today!"
Manny suddenly put her hand on Su Nan's shoulder from behind and pressed down. Then she also sat by the side and "warmly" pulled Su Nan's hand.
Su Nan appeared to be very embarrassed, but it was not good to get up and leave immediately. She planned to sit for two minutes before leaving.
"Miss Su, it is very nice to meet you. This cup is for you."
Jenne enthusiastically picked up a glass of red wine.
"Sorry, I'm allergic to alcohol. I can't drink, so I replaced the bar with water."
Su Nan was indeed allergic to alcohol, but it was not serious. It was not a problem to drink a little, but she would never drink with strangers.
"Aiya, this is the first time Young Master Jani took the initiative to propose a toast. Just treat it as giving me face and drink this cup."
As Manny spoke, she picked up the wine cup and stuffed it into Su Nan's hands.
"Sorry, I really can't drink."
Su Nan hurriedly and gently pushed it forward.
Pah!
Unexpectedly, the glass of red wine fell from Manny's hand and splashed all over the floor.
"Ah, my skirt!"
Manny stomped her feet in pain and said unhappily, "Nan, this is your fault. If you don't want to drink, then don't drink. Why did you deliberately throw the glass?"
"Sorry, I didn't do it on purpose!"
Su Nan hurriedly explained. At the same time, she also felt quite puzzled in her heart. Just now, she only used her hand to symbolically block it. Why did the cup fall to the ground?
"Seriously, why don't you punish yourself with a cup and I will forgive you for this matter. It is not that I am making things difficult for you. This is the rule of Yi. If you don't believe me, you can ask my friend."
Manny said as she gave the few people beside her a look.
"Yes, Miss Su, this is the rule on our side."
"It's very rude to throw a wine glass to us. We must punish the wine."
"According to our rule, if you throw a glass and don't punish us with alcohol, it means that you treat us as your enemies."
The group of people quickly echoed.
"Nan, drink it. I didn't mean to make things difficult for you. You heard it too. It's really the customs on this side."
Manny pushed a full cup of wine in front of Su Nan and the corners of her mouth raised slightly in a confident arc.
Because she thought that she was a person who knew Su Nan very well.
Although the two of them did not interact much when they were in school, Manny had always paid special attention to Su Nan.
The reason was very simple, and that was endless jealousy. Why did Su Nan learn better than her? She was prettier than her, her family background was better than hers, and her social connections were better than hers?
This kind of jealousy continued until graduation. The period where Su Nan, who Manny had fantasized and looked forward to countless times, fell into trouble did not appear one day.
However, there was an unexpected gain. After a few years of observing in the dark, she discovered that Su Nan was a very kind person. She was so kind that sometimes she did not have any bottom line at all.
So today she was very sure that the act had come to this point. According to Su Nan's character, she had to drink this cup of wine no matter what.
However, the result made her greatly disappointed.
"Sorry, I can't drink this cup of wine, but I definitely have no other malicious intentions. It's just that I simply cannot drink. If I have offended you in any way, I can only apologize."
Finishing, Su Nan gently pushed the glass of red wine back, then picked up the bag and left.
The remaining people at the table looked at each other in dismay. Jenne looked at Manny with an even colder gaze.
"Wait!"
Manny hurriedly chased after her, so she acted as if it was impossible. "Nan, I know you can't drink, but can you make an exception for me once?"
"According to the rules, you are my guest. If you don't drink, my friends will treat me as an enemy in the future."
"You also know that it is not easy for me to be alone outside. These friends are really very important to me, so I treat you..."
Before she finished speaking, Su Nan suddenly turned her head and looked directly into Manny's eyes. She said coldly, "So, in order to please your friends, you made up such a story to drink with me?"
