Restaurant.
Inside a private room.
"President Zhou."
"We're here."
"Where's the distinguished guest?"
Several beautiful women entered with smiles on their faces.
President Zhou quickly got to his feet with a grin, beckoning them over before pointing toward Dong Xuebin. "Over there. Make sure you take good care of him."
Dong Xuebin sat in the seat of honor, and they all spotted him at once. They had not expected President Zhou to treat such a young man with such respect, and they were all slightly taken aback.
They had thought, as usual, that the other party would be a pot-bellied middle-aged man. Still, without asking a single question, they approached him, surrounding Dong Xuebin like a flock of swallows and squeezing Yu Meixia aside as though they wanted to sit beside him.
Yu Meixia was somewhat displeased, but with her gentle temperament, there was no way she would say anything.
She did not say anything, but Dong Xuebin did. Before any of them could sit down, he waved his hand and said, "Don't sit here. I'm not used to it."
The women were all a little embarrassed.
President Zhou said, "Take good care of Mr. Dong."
Dong Xuebin immediately replied, "I don't need anyone to keep me company. I can eat by myself."
That was rather blunt, but President Zhou was not surprised. Seeing that Dong Xuebin truly would not budge, he could only say, "Then sit wherever you like."
The young starlets blinked and found empty seats.
Only then did Yu Meixia feel better, and her expression improved considerably. Unconsciously, she sat up straighter, as though she wanted to compete with them. She was jealous.
Dong Xuebin did not think much of those young starlets, but Sister Yu amused him. Under the table, he nudged her with his foot.
