Chapter 220 - Most Raffish Host in History! (1/2)

The dinner ended at 9PM.

The guests included the leaders, stewardesses and the plane pa.s.sengers.

These days, it’s all about being thrifty, so the dinner was not as extravagant as expected. The alcohol was not expensive. They served a rather well known wine called “s.h.i.+k.u.men”, which was a type of rice wine. There was a similar brand of rice wine back in Zhang Ye’s previous world, he remembered that a cla.s.smate from Shanghai had brought this for them to drink during their university days.

“Here, let’s have a toast.”

“I represent China Airlines Headquarters and thank everyone.”

“Teacher Zhang Ye, drink up. You cannot refuse!”

“Teacher Dong Shanshan, I’ve seen your programs on the internet. They are really good, cheers!”

Zhang Ye could no longer take another drink. He already had a few rounds earlier in the afternoon before the flight with the crew members of “The Great Pugilistic World”. But with the everyone being so pa.s.sionate and the China Airlines leader and those pa.s.sengers he saved toasting him, Zhang Ye could not refuse them.

“I can’t hold my drink well.” Zhang Ye said beforehand.

“It’s alright.” The China Airlines leader said, “Haha, we will not drink past the limits.”

And so Zhang Ye stood up and drank with them. Rice wine gets to your head very quickly, so he didn’t dare to drink too much.

Dong Shanshan was also drawing a circle of admirers around her. When she sat at the table, a few of the beautiful air stewardesses immediately lost their l.u.s.ter. Beauties were always noticed no matter where. Dong Shanshan was naturally toasted several times. However, Dong Shanshan only had a cup before rejecting the rest. Her face was flushed as she held her forehead saying, “I can’t have anymore, I can’t withstand the alcohol. I really can’t drink anymore.” as her body swayed.

Someone toasted her again.

Dong Shanshan refused to drink.

After dinner, Zhang Ye helped Dong Shanshan out.

Everyone was gone by now. They knew that Dong Shanshan and Zhang Ye were university cla.s.smates, so they were not worried.

Taking the lift up, Dong Shanshan kept swaying and holding her head. Zhang Ye dragged her towards her room.

As Zhang Ye walked, he grumbled, “Can’t even have a peaceful dinner these days, everything must include drinking and drinking more, will they die if they don’t drink? This issue is really not something that our country should let others know!”

They reached the room.

“Can you go in by yourself? Can you walk?” Zhang Ye asked. It was already very late and it wasn’t very convenient for him to go into a female comrade’s room. But Dong Shanshan kept leaning onto Zhang Ye. Her alluring perfume flowed towards him and as she got closer, the fragrance of her lipstick shot up Zhang Ye’s nose. She was very close. Dong Shanshan’s hair was all over Zhang Ye’s shoulder and neck, and now, Zhang Ye’s heart was fluttering. He somewhat wished that he could go with Dong Shanshan into her room since no one was watching.

Seems like there was really no one in the corridor watching.

Zhang Ye was fighting against his urges.

Dong Shanshan suddenly straightened up and flipped open her purse for the key card. She swiped it cleanly and pushed the door open and placed the key card in the slot to turn the electricity on. She looked at Zhang Ye with her clear eyes and smiled. “Alright, here will do. Thank you. You should rest early too, we’re leaving tomorrow. Let’s have a meal together when you are free.”

Which part of her looked drunk?

Zhang Ye eyes widen and was tongue tied, “F**k, you were just putting on an act just now?”

“Who asked them to keep toasting me!? I can’t possibly drink that much.” Dong Shanshan explained logically.

Zhang Ye slapped his thighs, “Sigh, if I knew you were putting on an act, I would have done the same! I had too much to drink in the afternoon, so I didn’t want to drink again at night.”

Dong Shanshan smiled. “It wouldn’t work. This is a special skill of women. Time to sleep.”

‘Boom!’ The door closed.

Back at his own room.

Zhang Ye was left with a deep impression again by the character of his old cla.s.smate. He would never believe her words again in the future. Look at how correct Zhang Wuji‘s mother’s saying was — The more beautiful a woman, the harder she lies. This was indeed a wise saying.

He couldn’t sleep.

Let’s take a look online.

Zhang Ye had brought his notebook computer along, but he did not use it. The suite had a tablet computer of a foreign brand which he used instead. He browsed through the Celebrity Rankings website first. This was the most authoritative reference for a celebrity’s influence and fame. It was also a reference for a celebrity’s endors.e.m.e.nt or appearance fees

When he saw it, Zhang Ye whistled!

D-List Celebrity! He had really made it into the D-List rankings!

Back when Zhang Ye lost his job, he had been hovering in the first few spots of the E-List rankings. He barely solidified his standings within the top five places where he hovered for a bit, he was still far from first place. This was not a position that he could a.s.sume in a short moment. Even if he did, to keep his placing would have taken Zhang Ye a great deal of effort by filming or publis.h.i.+ng books. But now, just because he had gotten onto Central TV news and mentioned in name by the hosts, he had jumped out of the E-List and promoted into the D-List rankings. Although he was in last place of the D-List, it was still a commendable leap!

The netizens had also noticed it.

“Eh, why did Zhang Ye get into the D-List rankings?”

“Surely not? Isn’t he jobless now? His popularity should have fallen quite a bit, how could it have risen? And it even rose by so much?”

“It’s fake?”

“F**k, it’s real! He really got into the D-List!”

“Teacher Zhang has just debuted for a few month and he’s already a D-List celebrity?”

“The few jokers upstairs, did you all just get online?”

“Hey, why are you scolding us, did something happened? What is it that we do not know about?”
