Shen Yi finished a cup, set it aside, and clearly had no intention of continuing to drink.
Zhang Yang got the hint and didn't insist on drinking more. He just kept babbling, saying some flattering words.
The meal lasted over an hour. Shen Yi glanced at the time before saying, "It's about time. Let's call it a day."
Zhang Yang originally had other plans, but seeing the situation, he couldn't say more and could only arrange for someone to send them back.
Before leaving, Shen Yi looked at his colleagues who had come with him, "Take the next couple of days off to sort out your personal affairs."
"In two days we'll start working formally. I hope everyone can give it their all and aim to complete the work as soon as possible so we can return home."
A few people, led by Assistant Chen, nodded in agreement, and then they left the hotel.
