Chapter 1376 1371: Compensation
Taking advantage of someone's predicament is one of the things Su Chen despises the most. Tonight, Xiao Yifei is here entirely because her family lacks funds and had no choice.
Su Chen and she were acquainted for some time, so naturally, he wouldn't just stand by and watch.
Meanwhile, Xiao Yifei had already returned to the hotel's private room.
In the same room, besides Xiao Yifei's company leaders, there were also some young men who looked like prominent heirs, each accompanied by a girl.
The young man sitting at the head was already a bit impatient.
"I say, why are you taking so long to get things done? Where did she go?"
"Young Master Li, please calm down. I've already sent my secretary to find her. She should be back soon." A middle-aged man who looked like a leader was already sweating on his forehead.
Although he was an executive at an airline company and held a shareholder position, he had no bragging capital in front of this young man.
Because this young man's father could easily acquire the airline company where he worked.
Moreover, today he was relying on this young man for something.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have put so much effort into persuading the stewardess from his company.
It's worth noting that even he had admired that stewardess's figure and appearance for a long time but never found the right opportunity.
Coincidentally, after some investigation, he found out that her family had a significant incident and needed money.
So, it gave him an opportunity to step in.
But what made this leader regret was that he didn't get to enjoy the firsthand experience, which was undoubtedly disappointing for him.
However, on second thought, as long as she is willing to cooperate, there might be a second opportunity. He might not have enjoyed the firsthand experience, but as long as she continues working at the airline, the chances are still there.
"Sorry for keeping you waiting, leaders." At this moment, Xiao Yifei opened the door and walked in, bowing apologetically to everyone.
Young Master Li quickly gestured with his hand: "No problem, no problem."
Xiao Yifei's leader seized the chance to signal Xiao Yifei to go and toast Young Master Li.
Xiao Yifei's eyes showed a hint of struggle, but eventually she wore a forced smile, stiffly raised her glass, and approached Young Master Li.
"Young Master Li, I toast to you, wish you... ah!" Suddenly, Xiao Yifei felt a force on her wrist, and she became unstable.
Although Xiao Yifei managed to steady herself.
But the wine in her glass splashed, soaking Young Master Li's luxurious clothes.
However, Young Master Li did not blame Xiao Yifei, instead squinting his eyes at her, he unexpectedly took her hand and said, "Little beauty, you've wet my clothes. How are you going to compensate me?"
Xiao Yifei was incredibly tense; she came tonight after much internal struggle, but her family did desperately need money.
The company leader said that as long as she could satisfy the client, she would receive a fifty-thousand-dollar bonus.
Xiao Yifei was not a naive girl; she was aware of the darker side of this situation.
Originally, she thought that as long as she upheld her principles, nothing would go wrong.
But ever since the banquet began, she was continuously being urged to drink.
Even though Young Master Li hadn't urged her much, her company leaders, colleagues, and Young Master Li's friends kept finding excuses for her to drink.
She had no choice but to previously use the excuse of needing the restroom to escape the private room and go outside.
She didn't expect her miserable state to be witnessed by Su Chen.
When Xie Wenwen came out to call her, choosing to return meant she was prepared for the worst, but she never thought Young Master Li would be this direct.
Being held by Young Master Li, Xiao Yifei felt repulsed and disgusted.
But her rational mind stopped her from pushing Young Master Li away.
If she really pushed him away, not to mention whether it would anger him, her company's promise of a fifty-thousand-dollar bonus would definitely be gone.
If she didn't push him away and allowed him to do as he pleased, the outcome of tonight was predictable.
If it were him... would I be willing?
Xiao Yifei momentarily lost herself in thought.
In others' eyes, Xiao Yifei was clearly shocked by Young Master Li's rude behavior.
The company leader sitting next to them was full of envy watching the scene but completely missed the plea in Xiao Yifei's eyes.
His attentiveness was due to wanting to establish connections between Young Master Li and the Li Family's financial company; the airline company was facing significant problems, urgently needing a capital injection.
It was like a light bulb lit up for him when Young Master Li asked for Xiao Yifei's information.
He had heard of Young Master Li's name.
He also had a clear understanding of the capital and size of the Li Family.
Although the Li Family was not the wealthiest in Jiangdu.
Their financial strength was considerable; they were involved in real estate, finance, automobiles, and other fields with noteworthy achievements.
If he could persuade the Li Family to venture into the aviation field, it would be great news for their company.
"Young Master Li, sorry, your clothes, how about... I compensate you for them?" Xiao Yifei forced herself to stay calm.
Young Master Li was indifferent and chuckled: "Heh, compensate me? No need for that."
Hearing this, Xiao Yifei felt a little relieved; those clothes weren't cheap. The company's fifty-thousand-dollar bonus would likely cover only a portion.
"But if you accompany me, I'm a bit interested." Young Master Li said.
Xiao Yifei froze instantly, how should she respond?
How should she refuse?
Xiao Yifei remained silent for a moment.
Young Master Li was in no hurry; he had seen many girls like this.
After a while, Xiao Yifei spoke, "Young Master Li, should I still compensate you for the clothes? Just tell me how much..."
Young Master Li also had his temperament.
He coldly released Xiao Yifei.
Sitting back on the sofa, his sidekick lit a cigar for him.
He gazed coolly at Xiao Yifei and said, "I won't be extorting you. This garment is a handcrafted piece by an Italian fashion designer, seventeen hundred thousand US dollars. I've worn it for a month, so you compensate me with one hundred thousand US dollars and we'll call it even for the clothes."
"What?!" Xiao Yifei couldn't help exclaiming.
