Chapter 36 Mr. Shen, you've had too much to drink.
"Let's go."
After looking at him, Shen Qingyue walked towards the parking lot.
Upon hearing this, Chen Mo followed her to a red Porsche Cayenne.
This car must cost at least a million.
He couldn't afford a car, but he used to research luxury cars a lot, dreaming that one day he could own one himself.
Shen Qingyue took out her car keys from her bag, but instead of getting into the car, she turned to look at Chen Mo.
"Can you drive?"
"Yes." Chen Mo nodded.
He has a driver's license, and although he doesn't drive often, his skills are quite good.
"Then you drive."
As Shen Qingyue spoke, she tossed him the car keys, then opened the passenger door and got in.
Chen Mo looked at the car keys in his hand, then at the million-dollar luxury car in front of him, and felt a little apprehensive.
He does know how to drive, but this is the first time he's driven a car of this caliber.
However, the arrow was already on the bowstring and had to be released.
He took a deep breath, opened the car door, and got into the driver's seat.
The car interior was very clean, with a faint woody fragrance, and the seats were genuine leather with a smooth feel.
Chen Mo adjusted the seat and rearview mirror, fastened his seatbelt, and inserted the key to start the engine.
The engine emitted a low roar, then settled down.
He shifted gears, released the handbrake, and lightly pressed the accelerator.
The car slowly drove out of the parking lot and merged into the traffic.
After driving for a while, he gradually got the hang of it.
This car is indeed easy to drive, with plenty of power, stable handling, and good sound insulation.
"Chen Mo, where did you graduate from?"
Shen Qingyue suddenly spoke up, her tone casual, as if she were chatting.
"Jiangzhou University of Science and Technology, Computer Science major."
"How many years have you been with the company?"
"It's been five years. I came here in my third year after graduation."
"Always working in technology?"
"Yes, I've been in the technical department."
Are you married?
"……not yet."
Do you have a girlfriend?
"..."
Chen Mo paused for a moment, then said truthfully, "No."
Shen Qingyue turned her head and glanced at him, asking curiously, "You're quite a catch, why haven't you found someone?"
Chen Mo smiled and said, "I'm busy with work, I don't have time, and... I haven't met the right person yet."
Shen Qingyue didn't ask any further questions and turned to look out the window.
The car quieted down, with only soft music playing.
Twenty minutes later, the car stopped in front of a high-end business club.
"arrive."
Chen Mo parked the car and unbuckled his seatbelt.
Shen Qingyue opened her eyes, looked out the window, and straightened her clothes.
"Let's go."
The two got out of the car and walked into the club.
The waiter clearly recognized Shen Qingyue and led them directly to a private room.
I pushed the door open and went inside; there were already three people sitting there.
In the middle is a middle-aged man around fifty years old, wearing a polo shirt, slightly overweight, with a kind smile.
The two people next to him look like assistants or subordinates.
"Mr. Liu."
Shen Qingyue stepped forward, smiled, and extended her hand, saying, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
"Not at all, Mr. Shen, you're too kind."
Mr. Liu stood up and shook hands with her, his gaze falling on Chen Mo.
"Who is this?"
"This is Chen Mo from our company's technology department, the technical lead for the 'Smart Community Management System' project."
Shen Qingyue said with a smile, "I brought him along today so that you can easily understand the technical details."
"Hello, Mr. Chen."
Mr. Liu warmly shook hands with Chen Mo.
"Hello, Mr. Liu," Chen Mo replied politely.
After everyone took their seats and exchanged a few pleasantries, they quickly got down to business.
Mr. Liu was very concerned about the progress of the project and asked many detailed questions.
Fortunately, Chen Mo was well-prepared and answered each question clearly and accurately.
"Not bad, not bad."
After listening, General Manager Liu nodded in satisfaction.
"President Shen, your company is truly full of talented people. Engineer Chen is so young, yet so capable. He is a force to be reckoned with."
"Mr. Liu, you flatter me."
Shen Qingyue smiled and said, "Your project is the most important thing, so we dare not neglect it."
"Haha, Mr. Shen really knows how to talk."
Mr. Liu was in a good mood and checked the time.
"It's already past five o'clock, how about we grab some food together? I know a really good private kitchen nearby, we can eat and chat?"
Shen Qingyue glanced at Chen Mo and nodded in agreement.
"Then I'll leave the arrangements to you, Mr. Liu."
"No trouble at all, let's go."
The group moved to a nearby private restaurant.
The private room is in a Chinese style, simple and elegant.
The dishes were served exquisitely, all made with seasonal ingredients and prepared with great care.
During the meeting, Mr. Liu was very talkative, discussing everything from projects to the industry, and then from the industry to the economic situation.
Shen Qingyue responded appropriately.
Neither overly enthusiastic nor impolite.
Chen Mo mostly just listened, only speaking up when asked technical questions.
After a few rounds of drinks, Mr. Liu became even more talkative.
"Mr. Shen, to be honest, our group attaches great importance to this project."
"If that's done, we have several other residential areas that need upgrading and renovation, and we can entrust those to you."
"Thank you for your trust, Mr. Liu. We will do our best."
Shen Qingyue raised her glass and said, "I'd like to toast you."
"Okay, let's do it!"
The two clinked glasses and drank it all in one gulp.
Chen Mo noticed that Shen Qingyue was drinking baijiu (Chinese liquor), and quite a lot of it.
Her cheeks were slightly flushed, and her eyes were somewhat unfocused, but her speech and behavior remained proper, and her thoughts were clear.
The meal took almost two hours.
It was almost eight o'clock when we finished.
"Mr. Liu, thank you for your hospitality today."
Shen Qingyue stood up, swaying slightly, but still maintaining a smile.
"Don't worry about the project, we will definitely complete it on time and with high quality."
"Okay, I'm relieved to hear Mr. Shen say that."
President Liu also stood up and shook hands with Shen Qingyue.
"Then I won't see you off. Take care on your journey."
"Okay, Mr. Liu, please wait a moment."
As she stepped out of the restaurant, a gust of evening wind caused Shen Qingyue to stagger slightly.
Chen Mo quickly helped her up.
"Mr. Shen, are you alright?"
"fine……"
Shen Qingyue waved her hand, but her body involuntarily leaned against Chen Mo.
"I'm just... a little dizzy."
Chen Mo smelled a faint scent of alcohol mixed with perfume on her, which wasn't unpleasant.
"Let me take you home."
"No……"
Shen Qingyue shook her head and said, "I don't want to go home... Come with me to the riverbank for some fresh air and to wake me up."
"..."
Chen Mo looked at her and hesitated for a moment.
"Mr. Shen, you've had too much to drink."
"I'm not drunk... If you have something to do, go home first, don't worry about me."
Shen Qingyue stubbornly shook her head, pushed Chen Mo away, and walked forward on her stomach.
But after taking only two steps, he almost fell again.
Chen Mo quickly stepped forward to support her.
"Okay, let's sit by the river for a while, and then I'll take you home."
He compromised.
After all, given President Shen's current state, he couldn't just ignore him.
Chen Mo helped Shen Qingyue to the car, opened the passenger door, and helped her fasten her seatbelt.
Then he got into the driver's seat and started the car.
During the meal, Chen Mo used the excuse of needing to drive to avoid drinking, while Shen Qingyue drank the whole time.
So right now, he has absolutely no problem driving.
