"Mr. Jin, Mr. Li, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Gu Jia apologized repeatedly as soon as she entered.

She wasn't late at all.

She's being quite humble.

Before Li Haoyu could speak, Jin Hui said, "Since you're late, you'll have to punish yourself with a drink."

Jin Hui didn't give Gu Jia a chance to refuse at all; his tone was both enthusiastic and somewhat forceful. He even waved to the waiter next to him, signaling for more drinks.

Jin Hui took the initiative to make a move.

Li Haoyu didn't say much.

After all, it would be beneath him to get involved in this kind of thing.

Jin Hui's actions were just right.

Given Gu Jia's current situation, she naturally had no way to refuse.

She poured herself a glass of red wine and drank it all in one gulp.

Gu Jia also commented, "This wine tastes really good, with a particularly strong fruity aroma."

This wasn't Gu Jia trying to flatter him.

This wine definitely tastes different.

Jin Hui couldn't help but nod.

He is also a wine lover, and this is one of his most prized possessions.

He would never have taken it out for just anyone if Li Haoyu hadn't been there.

Jin Hui introduced it with a hint of pride.

"Indeed, it's important to know that good wines often have different aromas. 😾♛ ❻➈ˢ𝕙𝕌Ⓧ.ᶜ𝐨Μ ★😾Even the same grape variety can taste different when grown in different places using different methods."

"This wine is made from Gamay grapes. Gamay wines are light-bodied, so they will have a fresh and delicious cherry aroma."

Li Haoyu listened to his introduction with great interest.

I tried taking a sip myself.

He did think the wine wasn't bad, but the cherry flavor was just so-so.

On the contrary, Gu Jia started to appreciate red wine.

She slowly swirled the wine in her glass and took a small sip of red wine.

Then chew and savor the taste.

This is indeed the most authentic way to appreciate red wine.

This is to better appreciate the various aromas of wine, including sweet and sour flavors, as well as the aromas and the wine's own stimulating and astringent properties in the mouth...

However, Li Haoyu's focus was not on this at the moment.

Because Gu Jia was sitting next to Li Haoyu.

Li Haoyu could even vaguely see Gu Jia's tongue swaying as she drank the red wine. The sight itself was more stimulating to Li Haoyu than the wine itself.

Gu Jia said with a smile, "It's all thanks to President Jin for explaining the knowledge about red wine. I really didn't know anything about this."

Jin Hui glanced at Gu Jia but didn't say anything more.

Instead, he spoke to Li Haoyu, who was standing beside him. 🐳♔ 69𝕤Ĥ𝕌x.𝐜𝓞м 👺♬

"Would Mr. Li like another drink?"

Li Haoyu shook his head. "This wine is a bit sweet. I prefer a more acidic red wine."

Jin Hui quickly chimed in, "Mr. Li has excellent taste. Acidity can be considered the backbone of wine, and a key factor in making wine stand out."

"A bottle of wine without acidity is like a bottle of wine with no future. A wine with just the right amount of acidity is mouthwatering and whets the appetite."

Jin Hui hurriedly took out another bottle of wine from the side, "I also have a bottle of Burgundy red wine here, I'm sure Mr. Li will like it."

What's going on?

The situation on the scene was completely different from what Gu Jia had imagined. In her eyes, Jin Hui, the powerful and influential business tycoon, was like a gofer in front of Li Haoyu.

They served him diligently and were very humble.

What exactly is going on?

Were all my previous guesses wrong?

What exactly is the relationship between the two of them...?

Gu Jia couldn't help but wonder, but she still agreed with Jin Hui, saying, "President Li is indeed a connoisseur of wine."

Jin Hui was a very smart man; he knew long ago that he was only a supporting character in this situation, and could only ever be a supporting character. If he continued to steal Li Haoyu's thunder, he would definitely not have a good outcome.

However, he pondered the current situation.

It's already quite obvious.

Li Haoyu has clearly set his sights on Gu Jia, but judging from the current situation, he obviously hasn't succeeded yet.

Gu Jia herself seemed not to realize Li Haoyu's true strength.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have flattered herself so deliberately. If Li Haoyu were willing to lend a hand, there wouldn't be anything Gu Jia couldn't handle with her small business.

It seems I need to play a good supporting role this time.

After clarifying the relationship, Jin Hui knew what to do.

This time, Jin Hui stood up.

His smile suddenly became much kinder, and his attitude towards Gu Jia was completely different from before.

He smiled and said to Gu Jia, "You're wrong. My little tricks are nothing special."

"Mr. Li probably wouldn't stoop to showing off these things. Let's both offer him a toast to express our gratitude for his mentorship."

"I was in too much of a rush earlier and didn't have time to introduce myself. My name is Jin Hui, and I own several agency companies. I'm only able to make a living in this world recently thanks to Mr. Li's appreciation."

Gu Jia: "..."

She was stunned for a moment.

Could Li Haoyu be the mysterious big boss behind Jin Hui?

She probably came to her senses quickly. She gently licked her lips to suppress her surprise and hurriedly stood up to toast Li Haoyu.

Li Haoyu didn't get up, but waved his hand at the two of them, "Alright, we've had enough to drink. Let's talk about business first before we continue drinking."

Li Haoyu smiled and said to Gu Jia, "Didn't I tell you when the party ended that we would meet again soon? And today it has come true."

"Let's get down to business first, and then reminisce about our past friendship." Gu Jia fell silent for a moment upon hearing this, unsure of how to respond.

Li Haoyu's words were clearly directed at himself.

This indicates that he hasn't forgotten their previous unpleasant parting.

Gu Jia was about to try to smooth things over and salvage the situation.

Li Haoyu had already spoken to Jin Hui, saying, "It's alright, you two talk first. Don't worry about me, just do it normally."

Upon hearing this and seeing Gu Jia's embarrassed expression, Jin Hui understood what was going on.

In the current situation, we should treat Gu Jia like any other person, but we also can't afford to offend her. We can discuss things, but there can't be any real progress.

He even wanted to be deliberately demanding, to control Gu Jia's business. Only when Li Haoyu gave his approval could he truly give the green light.

The appropriate level of detail is important to consider here.

On the one hand, he had to handle things according to Li Haoyu's wishes; on the other hand, he couldn't afford to offend Gu Jia too much, otherwise, who knows when she might become his boss.

He's a seasoned veteran; he knows these tricks of the trade.

However, Jin Hui also took this opportunity to secretly glance at Gu Jia. It must be said that Gu Jia's beauty was truly stunning; beneath her exquisite makeup, her skin was flawless.

It really looks tempting!
