A sophomore in college starts by getting a marriage certificate with a female CEO.

"Mr. Lu, which company does your wife work for?"

These words were spoken.

All eyes turned to them.

Not only that, they were all quite curious.

Li Xixue tightened her grip on Lu Yang's arm. Lu Yang smiled and said directly, "Snowy Region."

Two words.

Fang Zhiyuan was taken aback.

Snowy region?

Snowland Group?

He thought for a moment, and the name sounded familiar.

But Xueyu Group is so big, with tens of thousands of employees, so it's normal for an ordinary employee to be one.

"Oh, the Snowland Group."

Fang Zhiyuan nodded. "A big company, not bad, not bad."

Zhou Qiming chimed in, "Xueyu is a leading enterprise in Linjiang; it's not easy to get a job there."

At this moment, Wang Lei, who was standing next to him, suddenly interjected:

"It's not just big companies. My cross-border e-commerce project got its Series A funding from Xueyu Investment."

As soon as these words came out...

The atmosphere at the table shifted slightly.

Fang Zhiyuan's eyebrows twitched: "Xueyu voted?"

"yes."

Wang Lei took a sip of his drink, his tone tinged with pride: "Xueyu's investment department was quite optimistic about the cross-border e-commerce sector. They raised 100 million yuan for us back then. To be honest, without Xueyu, my company would probably have gone bankrupt long ago."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Qiming raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "What a coincidence, my project also had Xueyu leading the second round of investment."

Fang Zhiyuan pushed up his glasses: "Mine is the same, but I was in contact with the strategic investment department of Xueyu, and it took three months of negotiations to secure it."

The three of them exchanged glances.

No.

So, all their projects were funded by Xueyu?

What a coincidence!

Zhou Qiming nodded, then turned to the side: "Where's President Sun?"

Mr. Sun took a sip of soup and put down his spoon.

"My restaurant chain... was also a Series B investment led by Xueyu."

There was a moment of silence on the table.

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

All of them?

Are the four people sitting at this table all backed by the Snowland Group, their investor?

Wang Lei chuckled: "So we're all from the snowy region after all."

Everyone smiled and remained silent.

It seems that's really the case.

Lu Yang sat there, twirling a water glass in his hand.

He turned and glanced at Li Xixue.

Li Xixue was drinking juice with her head down.

His expression remained unchanged.

But Lu Yang noticed it.

It's not a laugh.

Instead, these people had been swaggering around in front of him for so long, only to find that the sugar daddy who was funding them was now sitting right next to them.

Lu Yang's lips twitched slightly.

interesting.

"By the way, speaking of the snowy region..."

Zhou Qiming put down his wine glass and looked at Li Xixue: "Which department does Mrs. Lu work for in Snowfield?"

Li Xixue put down her juice glass.

Lu Yang answered for her directly: "Just an ordinary manager."

Zhou Qiming responded with an "oh".

Management.

Even if it's just an ordinary manager, their rank should not be low.

"What level of management? Manager? Or director?"

Fang Zhiyuan became curious.

Li Xixue glanced at him, still with an icy expression, and did not answer.

Lu Yang chimed in from the side, "She doesn't really like talking about work."

Fang Zhiyuan nodded tactfully: "I understand."

Zhou Qiming smiled and didn't ask any further questions.

The banquet officially began.

The host went on stage and said a few opening remarks.

Then Zhang Ran, as the Secretary-General, delivered a speech.

The content is nothing more than clichés about youth entrepreneurship, mutual learning, and resource integration.

Lu Yang listened for a while and found that there was nothing substantial to it.

So, he was about to look down and scroll through his phone.

But in the next moment.

Lu Yang suddenly noticed Li Xixue.

The juice glass in front of her was empty.

wrong.

Lu Yang's gaze shifted downwards slightly.

Next to the juice glass, a stemmed wine glass appeared out of nowhere.

Most of the red wine inside had already been consumed.

Lu Yang looked at Li Xixue's face.

Her face was flushed.

A uniform layer of pink from the cheekbone to the earlobe.

Lu Yang: "..."

He remembered what Li Xixue had said to him before he came.

If you can drink, then drink; if you can't, then at least have a small amount. Don't force yourself.

Good guy.

Are you trying to educate him here?

He secretly started drinking it himself first.

Lu Yang reached out and took the wine glass directly from in front of Li Xixue.

Li Xixue's hand was still on the table, her fingers making a grasping motion above where the cup had been.

She turned to look at Lu Yang.

His eyes looked a little unfocused.

But his expression was a bit fierce.

Oh no, it's super fierce!

Just like the description of food guarding.

"what?"

She pursed her lips, drawing out the last syllable.

Lu Yang put the wine glass on his side, far away from her.

"Didn't you say you didn't drink?"

Li Xixue blinked.

"When did I say that?"

"You ignored me when I offered you a toast earlier."

"That's his wine."

Li Xixue tapped her finger on the table: "I poured this myself."

Lu Yang stared at her.

Is there a difference?

"Of course."

Li Xixue tilted her head. "Why should I drink his wine?"

After a pause, she added, "I can have yours."

Lu Yang clenched his fist under the table.

No.

Does this woman speak so bluntly when she's drunk?

She wouldn't normally say something like that.

"You can't drink anymore, you can't hold your liquor."

"Who says I can't hold my liquor?"

Li Xixue frowned, unconvinced, and reached out to grab the cup.

Lu Yang picked up the cup directly.

Li Xixue's hand missed its target.

She glared at Lu Yang, her lips pursed.

For some reason, after drinking, her eyes were much brighter than usual, and the corners of her eyes were slightly red.

Add to that fierce expression.

The contrast is huge.

Lu Yang held back his laughter.

That's all for today, okay?

Li Xixue fell silent.

She turned around and obediently picked up her chopsticks and took a piece of meat.

However, the chopsticks failed to pick it up after a couple of tries.

Lu Yang saw it all.

"Would you like me to help you pick it up?"

"Who needs your help!"

Li Xixue became stubborn and finally picked up the piece of meat and put it in her bowl.

As she ate, her gaze inadvertently drifted towards the wine glass again.

Lu Yang noticed it.

"Stop looking."

Li Xixue looked away and snorted, "Stingy."

at this time.

The attention of the others at the table also shifted from Zhang Ran's speech to Lu Yang's.

They glanced at the interaction between Lu Yang and Li Xixue out of the corner of their eyes.

The woman was clearly drunk.

The man is in charge.

But the way it's managed is quite interesting.

It wasn't the kind of chauvinistic scolding, but rather the kind that was a little indulgent.

After a while.

Li Xixue suddenly leaned closer, tilting her shoulder slightly towards Lu Yang.

Then she tilted her head slightly toward him.

"hot."

She said one word.

Lu Yang said irritably, "Is it possible that you're drunk?"

Li Xixue did not admit it.

She reached out and tugged at Lu Yang's sleeve.

"Could you fan me?"
