Because of his familiarity with Fan Xiao, You Shulang moved his seat from the last few seats in the conference room to next to the factory director, which made him feel uncomfortable even though he was not involved in the main business.
And Fan Xiao interacted with him from time to time during the meeting, making him look like a key figure who could influence Fan Xiao's investment decision. You Shulang had a headache, and he agreed to it with a stiff upper lip under his calm and composed words.
Finally, he made it to the end of the meeting, but he didn't expect the predicament to escalate again. At the dinner, he was arranged to sit next to Fan Xiao, and the deputy factory directors in charge of various affairs of the pharmaceutical factory sat next to him. You Shulang knew best how difficult these gods who restructured the old factory were, so he felt very uncomfortable.
"Mr. Fan, our Bohai Pharmaceutical was originally a state-owned enterprise, and was just restructured into a limited liability company last year. Bohai holds many drug approval numbers, but it cannot be exchanged for real money. In the final analysis, it is due to insufficient capital investment and outdated sales methods."
Fan Xiao turned the cup in front of him with his slender fingers and said slowly: "I am not interested in your company's prescription drug distribution. I am interested in over-the-counter drugs with health benefits, that is, OTC drugs."
He took out Bohai Pharmaceutical's project plan and turned to the last page: "Among the drug approval numbers you listed, is this Ciwujia Shuxin Oral Liquid currently in production or dormant?"
"This has not been put into production yet," said Director Liu.
Fan Xiao put the plan aside and said with a regretful smile: "Everyone present here is an industry insider. You should know how much the annual sales of Anxin Oral Liquid of a certain pharmaceutical factory are, and how much it drives the sales of other products of the pharmaceutical factory. Director Liu, let me put it bluntly. You are begging for food with a golden bowl in your hands."
Director Liu's expression was blank for a moment, then he slapped his forehead, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly ordered You Shulang to pour wine for Fan Xiao.
"Mr. Fan, if you think this OTC drug is good, can we go back and make a new project plan for you to review?"
Fan Xiao didn't respond to Director Liu's words, but he didn't act like a financial sponsor. He said half-truthfully, "Usually I'm the only one who pours wine for Shu Lang. How dare I trouble him today?"
You Shulang was stunned. Fan Xiao's words were not meant to save his face at all. It was clearly like he was putting him on the fire.
Sure enough, the next moment he heard the sour and malicious voices of others.
"Director You has such a powerful friend, why didn't you introduce him to us earlier?"
"This time, the cooperation between Pinfeng Venture Capital and Bohai Pharmaceutical depends on Director You."
"I suggest that Director You be the leader of the OTC project. He also graduated from a medical school, so being an office director is a waste of his talent."
Every word is a compliment, but also a mockery.
You Shulang's back was sunken into the back of the chair, but he was still calm and relaxed. He lowered his head and said with a self-deprecating smile: "How can I be that capable?"
It was originally an excuse to end the previous topic, but Fan Xiao was so rude that he continued, "How do you know it won't work if you don't try it, Director You?"
"…"
Taking a deep breath, You Shulang slowly raised his eyelids, and picked up the wine on the table with his slender fingers. The cup was not small, just three cups per bottle. You Shulang bumped it against Fan Xiao's cup and said solemnly, "For investment matters, please give preference to our Bohai, Mr. Fan."
"No problem." Fan Xiao picked up the cup and drank it all.
You Shulang left the table and went to the bathroom. Just as he unbuttoned his pants, a person stood beside him. He glanced and saw that it was Fan Xiao. He also unbuttoned his pants, but his eyes did not fall on the white wall in front of him like ordinary people, but... lowered his head and glanced at You Shulang.
After watching it, he whistled and said with a smile, "It's quite impressive."
The smooth line trembled for a moment, and You Shulang's teeth touched his lower lip. He did not choose to look back in revenge. After finishing, he zipped up his pants and walked out of the inner room without saying a word.
After teasing him to the point of almost getting anxious, Fan Xiao lowered his gaze and whispered "faggot". As he was letting out his wetness, he recalled You Shulang's somewhat ashamed and angry expression with some enjoyment, until he thought of a difficult problem and then slowly frowned.
How do you use something that big? Won't it hurt?
After leaving the inner room, he went to the sink to wash his hands. When he looked up, he could see You Shulang in the mirror. He was smoking in front of a shiny upright trash can, and his hair was still a little wet, which showed that he had just washed his face.
After drying his hands, Fan Xiao turned around and leaned on the table, picking up a cigarette and biting it between his teeth. He half-closed his hand to light a match, leaned forward slightly and took a deep breath of the flame.
When the white mist came out, he glanced at You Shulang through the curling smoke, and his gaze moved to his lower body before retracting.
"Why, you've never seen one this big?" You Shulang's voice was a little hoarse, which was due to the strong drinking.
The words were spoken in a vulgar and impolite manner, which was not like Director You's usual style. However, those who knew him knew that Director You was just gentle and polite, and was by no means weak and could be bullied.
Fan Xiao smiled, moved his limp back away from the desk, and walked towards You Shulang step by step.
Although the luxurious bathroom was spacious, Fan Xiao was only three or two steps away from You Shulang. Their toes were almost touching each other, but the man didn't stop, and just took another small step forward, almost sticking to You Shulang.
You Shulang subconsciously leaned back, with a wary expression on his face. Fan Xiao put his arm around his shoulders and whispered in his ear, "Don't move, be careful not to fall."
The faint aroma of wine spread, and You Shulang smelled the smell of his own mouth and nose in the heat wave exhaled by Fan Xiao, as if they had been entangled through some special way, confusing and ambiguous. You Shulang didn't understand why he had such a strange and astringent thought, and in the end he could only roughly attribute it to the fact that he hadn't seen Lu Zhen for half a month and had not relieved his desire.
He fluttered his eyelashes twice, took out the cigarette from his mouth, and prepared to push the man who had covered half of his body.
"Pah!" A faint sound came and entered You Shulang's ears. The volume that was almost inaudible on ordinary days seemed unusually clear at this moment. You Shulang turned his head slightly and lowered his eyes, and saw a burnt matchstick in the cigarette butt recycler on the trash can behind him.
"…"
You Shulang suddenly felt that he was too sensitive. Because of his sexual orientation, he was always unwilling to have physical contact with others beyond the social level. Because of this, Fan Xiao's action just now made him react violently. Fortunately, he pulled back and pushed the man's hand away in time.
But surprisingly, after Fan Xiao threw the match, he did not immediately distance themselves from each other. The height difference between them was just enough for his lips to touch You Shulang's ear.
"I've seen bigger ones." The aroma of wine and tobacco mixed together, and the masculine scent invaded You Shulang's senses, "Mine."
"!"
You Shulang suddenly raised his head and looked at Fan Xiao. Because they were too close, his lips almost brushed against the man's jaw.
He was sure that Fan Xiao was not gay, but how should he explain this sentence which was obviously provocative?
The man in sight slowly began to smile. He distanced himself from the two of them, exhaled a puff of cigarette, and said softly and casually, "I praised you, but you didn't praise me back."
Are we comparing sizes? You Shulang was so depressed that he kept saying, "I'll like it next time."
Fan Xiao, who knew You Shulang's sexual orientation, raised an eyebrow, amazed at how well he pretended to be a straight man.
"Are you angry about what I just said at the dinner table?" Fan Xiao changed the subject.
You Shulang was mature and smooth, and he couldn't tell the truth even if he was angry in such a situation. He pressed the cigarette butt to death, looked away, and said calmly: "Boss Fan raised my status, how could I be angry?"
"Since I'm going to invest, why don't I raise Director You's net worth as high as possible?"
After hearing this, You Shulang looked at Fan Xiao, a little surprised: "Are you really going to invest?"
"Yes, Shuxin Oral Liquid has great prospects."
"so..."
"So, let's go back to Director You and get some Joe to make those ignorant guys shut up!"
"You are really…"
You Shulang shook his head in the rouge-scented smoke and smiled softly and silently...
