Chapter 889: Drinking Too Much Is Detrimental to Your Health. It’s Good to Only Drink What You Can Handle

Runge’s expression was very cold. “How much do you understand about that friend of yours?”

Abner paused for a moment before he said, “We often discussed robots together these past few days and we would also go out together to play.”

Runge suddenly used his sharp gaze to stare at him for a second before he turned around and left.

Abner was even more confused. He quickly followed Runge. “Cousin, why did you ask that?”

Runge did not stop walking as he warned him. “Don’t get acquainted with such random people in the future. Perhaps they might harm you and your family.”

Abner stood there and scratched his head inexplicably as he looked at Runge who quickly increased the distance between them. “What does he mean by that?”

But no matter what he meant, he went to continue looking for Luca.

…

In the hall.

The dinner banquet was still ongoing. When Zi Yi and Qin Ze made their way inside, many people inside had already had too much of a drink.

There just so happened to be someone talking nearby.

“Country D is really valuing those from China. I didn’t expect them to invite them to visit the robot research lab tomorrow.”

“They will definitely get to see many of the super robots Country D have yet to announce to the public when they visit the lab. Is the Robot Association in Country D planning to collaborate with the Robot Association in China?”

“If that’s the case, China’s robots will definitely develop rapidly in a short period of time.”

“Perhaps they might even become the second country in terms of robot technology.”

These people were all full of envy.

However, when Zi Yi and Qin Ze heard this news, they made eye contact with each other.

Qin Ze said with a serious expression, “Why do I have a bad feeling about this?”

Country D was the top country in robot technology and they have always had a good relationship with Country A. However, they didn’t even invite Country A’s team to visit their lab. Right now, they are inviting the China team all of a sudden and it was obvious they had other hidden intentions.

Both of them looked at the hall.

Professor Dou and the team were still surrounded by a huge crowd at this time.

Zi Yi swept her gaze across her surroundings and asked Qin Ze, “Where are those from Country D’s team?”

“They left when I came out to look for you.”

It was reasonable for Country D’s robot team to leave early. After all, those who have always maintained the top position suddenly lost and it was normal for them to feel uncomfortable.

Zi Yi glanced at the time. It was already past nine o’clock in the evening right now.

“The banquet is ending soon. I’ll go talk to my Uncle.”

Having said that, she acted like a fan girl and headed to where Professor Dou was.

Professor Dou had too much to drink tonight and his face was flushed. He was currently sitting down somewhere to sober up.

“Professor Dou.”

He recognized Zi Yi’s voice immediately and looked in her direction.

Zi Yi took out a notebook and pen from her pockets and acted like a fan girl. “Moonlight from your team is too stunning. Can you help me sign here?”

Having said that, she naturally sat next to Professor Dou and asked in a whisper, “What time will you be heading to Country D’s lab tomorrow?”

“10 in the morning.”

Professor Dou took the pen and paper from her and slowly signed on the paper.

“I will get Shadow to follow you tomorrow. Do be careful then. If anything happens, I’ll come over at the very first instance.”

Professor Dou’s hand paused and at the same time, he had a frown on his face.

“The whole world will be paying attention to our trip tomorrow. They wouldn’t dare to do anything to us.”

Zi Yi did not wish to tell him that those from the worm race might be inside and so, she said, “We can’t be sure. For safety reasons, it’s better to be careful.”

Professor Dou nodded his head and handed the signed paper back to her.

Zi Yi stood up and left.

There were many people’s eyes on her at this moment. Some of them were even whispering among themselves.

“Look, someone actually asked someone from the China team for a signature. I didn’t expect that beautiful lady to be a fan of China.”

“Isn’t this normal? After today’s competition, their team would certainly have gained a large number of fans.”

“That’s true.”

Zi Yi walked to Qin Ze’s side. They made eye contact and Qin Ze asked, “What should we do now?”

“We’ll go back first.”

Having said that, Zi Yi also turned around and headed upstairs.

…

On the other side.

The World Economic Conference will officially start tomorrow. General Hank had invited all the participating countries and big shots to attend the banquet.

The dinner banquet was even more lively than the banquet Saunder hosted.

The clinking of glasses being toasted could be heard everywhere and everyone was either talking about the economic structure of the whole world or the trend in which the future economy was developing.

Some time back, when Lu Jingye had stepped down from the President position in Lu Group, there were those who had kicked him when he was down, but there were also those who had remained neutral.

With his attendance today, everyone reverted back to their previous attitudes.

“Lu, congratulations on pushing the Song Jewelry onto the international stage. The jewelry is very beautiful and my wife and daughter like it very much.”

“Thank you.”

Lu Jingye was still as gentle and polite as before. Whenever someone gave him a toast, he would return it. It was just that he would only take a small sip every time.

Someone saw his actions and deliberately said in a teasing tone of voice, “Why do I feel that Mr. Lu has been drinking from the same glass even after so much time has passed? Tonight is a drinking party and it’ll be boring if you don’t drink.”

Lu Jingye retorted with a perfect reply, “Drinking harms one’s body. Drinking it in moderation is good.”

“Haha… don’t tell me it’s Mrs. Lu who forbade you from drinking?”

Lu Jingye smiled and said nothing, but it made everyone think that this was the reason.

“I heard that Mrs. Lu’s racing club will be holding an international racing competition soon. We will definitely join in when you create a bet.”

Lu Jingye revealed a slight smile. “These are all events my wife does for her own entertainment. I won’t be participating.”

However, no one believed what he said.

Someone brought up the racing competition that Zi Yi had participated in before.

“During the previous time Mrs. Lu participated in the racing competition, I believe you were the one who started the bet? Mrs. Lu is really skilled in this aspect.”

Lu Jingye was not modest either as he agreed with him. “Mhmm. My wife likes racing cars and she has indeed studied in this aspect.”

A wave of laughter sounded.

Just then, a young man with curly white hair came over to Lu Jingye and said with a smile, “Mr. Lu, I am the newly appointed President of the UP Group. I used to hear all about your legends in the business world. I hope that we can cooperate when the opportunity arises.”

Having said that, he raised his glass and toasted Lu Jingye. “Come, let us toast. I hope that in the near future, you’ll be able to create another Lu Group.”

Lu Jingye calmly returned the toast.

Ravel finished the glass in one go. When he saw that Lu Jingye only took a small sip, he deliberately revealed a dissatisfied expression. “Mr. Lu, why did you only drink so little? I finished my cup. Are you not going to give me this level of face?”

A seemingly indiscernible smile curved up on Lu Jingye’s lips and no one could discern his current emotions. “Drinking too much is detrimental to your health. It’s good to only drink what you can handle.”

“This won’t do. Tonight is a drinking banquet and so what are you planning to do if you’re not drinking?”

Ravel waved for a staff member carrying a tray and took another glass of wine from the tray before he handed it to Lu Jingye. “Our companies have worked together in the past but our collaboration had been interrupted due to some issues. I hope that we can continue this type of cooperation in the future.”
