Chapter 594: Who Cares About His Pride?

Yan Jinyi was playing her mobile game and her answer was quite perfunctory.
Tao Wei had just met with a veteran director of Hong Kong, who was his idol. Hence, he was in an extremely good mood at the moment.
“After the event, I’ll treat you guys to dinner at the best restaurant in Hong Kong. Jinyi, feel free to order any dish that you want.”
Yan Jinyi finally looked up at Tao Wei and couldn’t help but tease, “When did Director Tao become so generous?”
“I’ve always been generous, what are you saying?”
Just as he was about to give her some instructions, Tao Wei’s cell phone suddenly started ringing in his pocket. He pulled it out with displeasure to see that the person who was calling was the person in charge of the event in Hong Kong.
Tao Wei looked at Yan Jinyi, grabbed his cell phone, and walked towards the window.
Hearing Tao Wei curse, she placed her phone back inside her pocket.
“What’s wrong?”
Tao Wei seemed a little flustered. “Jinyi, the person in charge of BM Mall suddenly went back on his word. He said that the grandson of a big shot in Hong Kong wants to do a wedding proposal there so he’s breaching the contract with us.”
“What do you mean breach the contract?”
“Well, that means we can’t hold our event at BM Mall. They’ve already compensated us.”
There were only a few places here that were suitable for hosting events and most of them had been fully booked. Tao Wei managed to book BM Mall through some personal connections. There was high footfall in that place and there were several schools nearby.
The event was to be held today but they chose to breach the contract today. It was probably deliberate.
Yan Jinyi squinted and asked, “Who is that so-called big shot?”
“The owner of Bo City Casino.”
‘Bo City Casino?’
Yan Jinyi was surprised. She had heard Huo Zihang mention Bo City Casino several times before and it should be considered one of the best casinos in the region. During the first two years after his graduation, Huo Zihang often came over with his friends. The majority of the patrons of the casino were foreign businessmen.
The owner of Bo City Casino should be considered one of the top figures in the city.
‘Hah, it’s no wonder that the person in charge of BM Mall would rather pay for the breach of contract than turn down that big shot.’
“Must his son propose today?”
At the mention of this, Tao Wei got even angrier.
“Jinyi, I suspect that he must have done it on purpose. When the son of the boss of Bo City Casino first got a girlfriend, it was plastered all over the hot search list. I’ve seen them together before and I heard that he was initially planning to propose to her in his casino on her birthday…”
Tao Wei was about to continue but Yan Jinyi suddenly raised her hand to stop. She roughly knew the reason.
Maybe someone was really trying to create trouble for her on purpose.
“Go back first. Release an official statement on Weibo in my name, the event in Hong Kong will be canceled today because of a breach of contract by BM Mall.”
Hearing those words, Tao Wei panicked and said, “That…that doesn’t seem appropriate. This is Hong Kong, and it’s not our territory here. Besides, we can’t afford to offend the person in charge of Bo City Casino… Hey, Jinyi, you can try asking Mr. Huo for help. The authorities of BM Mall will definitely compromise if he does.”
‘Silly me, how could I have forgotten that Jinyi is Second Young Mistress Huo!?!’
“I told you to go back. Do you still want to stay and eat with me?” Yan Jinyi suddenly questioned sternly with a sullen expression.
Tao Wei shuddered and said, “Ahem, let’s get going. Jinyi, I’ll leave it to you to handle this. Try to make peace, I believe the other party will certainly give in on Mr. Huo’s account.”
‘Who would give in because of him? Since they dare to cause trouble for me, they can wait and pay the price for it.’
Yan Jinyi waited for Tao Wei to release the statement on Weibo before calling Tang Qing slowly.
The local tyrant has to be subdued by a rogue.. In case they were to offend the owner of Bo City Casino, Tang Qing would be the one to shoulder the blame anyway.
