The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life

Chapter 1268: Chapter 485: Slap and Lighter 3

Li Xiaoya turned pale, ”What should we do? Why don’t you take me to apologize...”

Seeing Li Xiaoya still in a daze, Xiang Ming was speechless and raised his hand helplessly.

Damn it, are you blind? Can’t you see Xu Qing’s attitude towards Zhou Wang?

But he knew that Li Xiaoya, as a woman from an ordinary working-class background, had limited insight, so Xiang Ming didn’t explain further, only pondering in his heart how to remedy Zhou Wang’s impression of them...

It’s all my fault; I really misjudged this time!

Xiang Ming fell into deep regret.

...

Zhou Wang was almost exhausted.

He had anticipated that the guests today would exceed expectations, but he never imagined so many more would come.

Although Jiang Qingkui, Young Master Zhang, and others helped share the pressure of welcoming guests, there were many whom Zhou Wang had to personally greet.

Like Guo Wangshan, the head of the Guo Group, who attended with his two wives, He Jinglun, the CEO of He Group, who came with his son, Luo Meiling’s ex-husband, a powerful figure in Jiangnan, and Young Master Zhang’s second uncle Zhang Shihao, and his mother Zhang Shiling, etc...

These were just the big names from Magic City Hang City.

And there were those from Beidou.

Qiu Zeyu’s mother Mrs. Lin, Zhou Zihan and his father Zhou Tao, even Brother Qiang from Jingbei Mall showed up...

Although Brother Qiang was just making a brief appearance before a flight to the Beautiful Country, it undoubtedly showed considerable respect to Zhou Wang, so naturally, Zhou Wang had to respond appropriately.

After all the welcoming, photos, and small talk, and occasionally dealing with Nie Xiaoyun and Yan Baiqiu, by the time no more guests were arriving, it was almost eight in the evening.

Taking advantage of a brief lull, Zhou Wang quickly ran to the hallway outside, planning to light a cigarette and catch his breath.

Young Master Zhang and the others, hearing the news, all rushed over, clamoring for smokes.

And it turned out, this group of bastards brought good cigarettes today, like ”Special Supply Panda,” ”Internal Review Zhonghua,” ”Commemorative Da Chong Jiu”... even Tang Yiming got a pack of the legendary ”Blackstone Lin.”

But after everyone took a cigarette, an awkward problem arose—they had no lighter!

”Xiao Qi, wasn’t my lighter with you?”

”Uh, Guo Bing took it away...”

”Bullshit, clearly when we were lighting up earlier, Cheng Qing had it last.”

”It’s not my fault, I saw Yiming take my lighter!”

Zhou Wang couldn’t help laughing and crying; how could a group of people smoking expensive cigarettes all be ”lighter thieves”? Who could he blame?

Just as Zhou Wang was shaking his head helplessly, planning to have Xu Wenqian send a lighter over, a metallic click sounded, and a lit metal lighter appeared in front of him.

Zhou Wang looked up in surprise, and seeing who was holding the lighter, he smiled, patted the person’s shoulder, and finally brought his cigarette closer.

The tall young man in a work uniform holding the lighter helped everyone light their cigarettes, then nodded and smiled at Zhou Wang, put away the lighter, and pushed a food cart back to the kitchen.

”Who is that guy? He doesn’t look like a regular staff member....”

Young Master Zhang, detecting something from Zhou Wang’s reaction, asked curiously.

”I know him, Brother Dog, that’s Guo Nansheng, right?”

Guo Bing’s expression was a bit complicated.

”Yeah, it’s him... he’s my college roommate, came by to help out today since he’s free.”

Facing the inquisitive looks from Young Master Zhang and the others, Zhou Wang didn’t explain much nor did he want to delve into the other’s story, just quickly took two drags and stamped out the cigarette butt on the ground.

”Hurry up, it’s almost time for the opening dance party, I’m heading in first...”
