Chapter 942 - 384: Are You Worthy?
Wei Changming is a handsome guy.Just by looks, he might even be a notch above Han Lie.
With his sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, rosy lips, and white teeth, wearing just a simple white shirt, he smiles with a mix of shyness and sunshine.
The most outrageous thing is, his aura is more youthful than Han Lie’s.
Dog Lie now has a scoundrel vibe, and even if he gets rid of that, he exudes the dignity and steadiness of someone in a high position, often making people overlook his age.
But Wei Changming is different; he looks exceptionally clean, like a sunny little puppy beloved by aunties.
If it weren’t for Old Qiu’s solemn oath, who would think he’d be willing to do such a thing?
Brother Lie found it incredibly amusing, his psychological master mode fully activated, as he carefully observed Wei Changming.
"Teacher Han, Little Wei toasts you a glass of wine, thanking you for giving Little Wei an opportunity!"
Wei Changming bent over, standing beside Han Lie, wedged between the sofa and coffee table, with his bewildered lover standing behind him.
"Okay, okay, thank you."
Han Lie nodded subtly, maintaining a full sense of distance.
Old Qiu arranged, skipping over him: "Little Wei, sit, sit, later on, accompany Teacher Han well for me!"
"Certainly!"
Wei Changming tilted his head back and downed the wine in his glass, then gently pulled his lover over to sit beside Han Lie.
"Teacher Han, let me pour you some wine..."
Han Lie hadn’t been drinking before, and the wine glass was still at one-third full.
Wei Changming naturally picked up the Royal Salute bottle and gently added a couple of drops to Han Lie’s glass, then filled his own glass to the brim.
The Xinghui International glasses are those square-mouthed, round-bottomed whiskey glasses.
Its capacity is about three and a half ounces, with ice taking up about a third of the volume, so filling it up roughly comes to two and a half ounces.
"I’ll down mine, and you just take a sip!"
Suppressing excitement, Wei Changming crisply raised his glass, intending to chug it all.
But Han Lie stopped him.
"Hold on!"
Han Lie lightly raised his hand, glancing at him with a half-smile: "What’s the reason? Why would I drink your wine without a reason?"
Wei Changming had already drunk quite a bit, his ears and cheeks were completely red, but he remained clear-headed.
"Teacher Han, the opportunity I’m being evaluated for now all came from the project you introduced.
Once the project enters the company, it can be done by anyone. I have the drive and courage, while the seniors have the experience and connections, so there’s nothing indispensable.
President Qiu thinks Little Wei is worth cultivating, letting me follow for a couple of days to see my performance.
Today, with your esteemed presence, President Qiu arranged for me to accompany you, so I must do it flawlessly.
So from a professional standpoint, accompanying you well today and making you happy is a ZZ task assigned by my leader.
And from a personal standpoint, you are Little Wei’s benefactor, even a legend in Little Wei’s heart, and Little Wei has no value worth your distinguished attention, only full passion and one hundred percent sincerity.
You don’t have to give face to Little Wei. I don’t need that.
Just take it as a test, see how Little Wei performs, and if you’re satisfied, a small sip would be an encouragement to Little Wei.
If you’re not satisfied, pour the wine on my face. Little Wei will immediately reflect on what he didn’t do well!"
Little Chatterbox went off at a rapid-fire pace without a single stumble, who knows how long he’d been brewing this in his mind.
But even with prior preparation, Wei Changming’s performance could still be called stunning.
Most mediocre folks, given three days to organize their thoughts, won’t do well in real-time—either their words don’t convey their meaning, or they stammer and struggle.
But Wei Changming, not only managed to respect President Qiu, but also raised Han Lie to quite a lofty height. And it wasn’t brainless fawning, his speech was so sweet and his flattery skills top-notch.
Impressive indeed...
Han Lie shook his head with a smile, raised his glass, and clinked it with Wei Changming’s.
Wei Changming was overjoyed, immediately downing his drink, and then eagerly urged, "Thank you, Teacher Han, for the honor! Just take a sip, a sip is enough!"
Given Han Lie’s drinking capacity, if he decided to drink, there was no difference between downing it and taking a sip.
So Han Lie finished his drink, turned to Old Qiu, and laughed, "Indeed, with such strong generals, there are no weak troops under your command... Brother Qiu, you really know how to pick people!"
Old Qiu laughed heartily, "Little Wei is definitely good, capable of great things!"
Sparks danced in Wei Changming’s eyes as he struggled to contain his excitement, thankful, "Teacher Han, the honor you’ve given is too much, Little Wei can’t accept it..."
Tsk tsk, you’re really good at chatting!
Brother Lie turned his head with interest, wanting to hear how he would continue.
Then Wei Changming immediately picked up a glass of wine, handing it to his wife, and poured another glass for himself.
"Teacher Han, this is my partner, Yan Shuang. I can’t handle your honor alone, so we as a couple toast you together, with no other meaning. As a couple, we’re one; your kindness to me is kindness to her, and your favor to her is favor to me... We toast you together, celebrating with your prestige as our companion!"
Wow!
Your favor... a truly elegant choice of words...
Wei Changming drinks heartily, but Yan Shuang clearly struggles, her face full of reluctance and fear, her hand shaking as she holds the glass.
Han Lie, with a quick glance, understood the situation and gently advised.
"The sentiment is appreciated, don’t force yourself if you can’t drink, I’m not..."
But before Han Lie could finish advising, Yan Shuang, suddenly inspired, gritted her teeth and took down the whole glass in one go.
She immediately started coughing afterward.
"Cough, cough, cough..."
