Chapter 38: She is mine

Xia Cheng tried to stop him. She was not drunk when she came out. She could think normally and talk, but she could not control her steps. She staggered from side to side. After being hugged by Yu Jingyuan, she leaned into his arms.

"I want to go home... I want to go home..."

Yu Jingyuan became Xia Cheng's crutch, and he smelled the strong smell of alcohol.

"Just stand here and wait for me. I'll get your things and then take you home."

"I... I'm scared..." Xia Cheng's memory was a little confused, and she couldn't stop herself. She just wanted to say that Xun Mo pushed her down. She saw the hotel stairs and her body ached slightly. She was afraid that someone would push her down again. Her eyes were sore, and she looked up at Yu Jingyuan.

"Xun Mo likes you!"

Yu Jingyuan just thought that she was afraid that Xun Mo would see her after he sent her back.

He sighed, as if he was feeling cowardly. Why did he listen to Xia Cheng and not tell anyone else? Girls should all want a sense of security, and after spending these days together, his affection for Xia Cheng was gradually increasing.

He gently placed his chin on the top of Xia Cheng's head. There was a scent of gardenia there, which seemed to be in his family's garden. It often appeared in early summer and became more intense after a rain. His mother would often pick them and put them in a vase.

But Yu Jingyuan didn't like it. There were often many small black bugs in the gardenias, crawling all over the desk.

Now he took a deep breath of the scent of gardenia essential oil that Xia Cheng had applied to the ends of his hair.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm here, I'll take you home."

"I'm not going home!" Xia Cheng pushed Yu Jingyuan away and stumbled towards her own box. She didn't forget that she hadn't taken the recorder back yet.

Just as Yu Jingyuan was about to follow, Zhao Yunqian stopped him.

"Jingyuan, who is this?"

Yu Jingyuan lowered his eyes and responded evasively.

"A... friend."

"Oh, so you're friends. I saw you two seemed to have a pretty good relationship, so I thought you were a girlfriend." Zhao Yunqian stared at him and smiled sweetly: "Look at what I'm saying, your girlfriend should be Xun Mo."

"Senior, please don't say such things next time."

Rarely, Yu Jingyuan refuted Zhao Yunqian's words.

Zhao Yunqian was keenly aware that this woman was indeed an extraordinary person to Yu Jingyuan.

Yu Jingyuan's educational experience is rare. The fact that he and the daughter of a real estate tycoon were childhood sweethearts was spread by Xun Mo as early as Yu Jingyuan's first day at work. Because of the special identities of Yu Jingyuan's parents, it is difficult for everyone not to pay attention to his little gossip.

In comparison, Zhao Yunqian's secret love was much more low-key. She even deliberately mentioned Xun Mo just to see Yu Jingyuan's reaction.

He was always indifferent, always laughing off things he didn't care about, never ruining the mood. Zhao Yunqian was certain he didn't like Xun Mo at all. People only react when something they care about is brought up.

Now, he stopped Zhao Yunqian from joking, being serious and unlike his usual self.

"Senior, please stop talking about this kind of thing. Xun Mo and I have nothing in common. I have always treated her as my younger sister."

Zhao Yunqian was speechless. Before she could even reply, Yu Jingyuan ran out again, caught up with the woman, and held her shoulders.

She chuckled. It was just a small crisis. She didn't need to take any action, nor did she need to care about it. Over the years, she had driven away many people who liked Yu Jingyuan.

She took out her cell phone and took a picture of the two people's backs, forgetting to turn off the flash, but the two people didn't pay attention to her.

After taking the photos, she sent them to Xun Mo. Her father was a shareholder in Xun Youdong's company, so they naturally knew each other.

Zhao Yunqian didn't know Xia Cheng because when Xia Cheng came back, she used the name Xun Nuanyi. She didn't go to the dinner and didn't know what Xia Cheng looked like. She only knew that Xun Mo had a new sister named Xun Nuanyi.

Xun Mo did not reply, and Zhao Yunqian added more fuel.

She retracted it, leaving a message: "Sorry, I sent it to the wrong person."

The words "inputting" kept appearing under the two words "Xun Mo". After a while, Xun Mo asked, "Who is she?"

*

When Xia Cheng was helped into the box by Yu Jingyuan, Han Wenya had already woken up. Apart from a slightly red face, there was no sign of drunkenness at all.

Han Wenya had been with Xun Sheng for a long time and knew Yu Jingyuan. When she saw him helping Xia Cheng in, she stood up and helped Xia Cheng back to her original position, her eyes moving between the two of them.

"Mr. Yu, do you know Xia Cheng?"

Yu Jingyuan nodded, picked up Xia Cheng's bag with one hand, and put his arm around Xia Cheng's waist with the other.

"Yes, I'll take her back first."

"Hey, why are you leaving? We haven't finished the wine yet. Wenya, this new guy you brought is no good!"

Yu Jingyuan paused when he heard this. He turned his head, his eyes filled with unbearable displeasure.

Although he is young, Yu Jingyuan has to attend many social occasions. Although he doesn't understand who arranged this situation, he can understand most of it.

As the sister of the president of Xiacheng Company, it is impossible for her to be forced to drink at a social gathering. She probably entered the company for an internship under a concealed identity and was assigned by Xun Sheng to work under Han Wenya.

Han Wenya's affection for Xun Sheng was no secret; perhaps she considered Xia Cheng an imaginary enemy. She said she was teaching her, but drinking enough wine first was a warning.

Yu Jingyuan's eyes swept over Manager Zhou coldly, and the three men in front of him shut their mouths. They didn't know the identity of this man, so they could only look at Han Wenya. Seeing that Han Wenya also looked embarrassed, they didn't make it difficult for her anymore.

"Han Wenya, she is..." Xun Sheng's sister.

Yu Jingyuan couldn't say the second half of the sentence. Xun Sheng has been uneasy in the company recently. He was not sure whether Xia Cheng was part of his plan, so he could only turn around and protect the person in his arms.

"She's... mine."

Han Wenya's mind was like being struck by an ancient bell, and a flash of inspiration flashed through her mind.

Yes, how could she forget that Xun Sheng has two good brothers!

Perhaps, Xia Cheng was Yu Jingyuan's girlfriend, which was why Xun Sheng took special care of her! But he didn't want others to know and spread gossip, so he didn't say anything and only scolded her in the company.

Thinking of this, Han Wenya's face was full of smiles. She took the initiative to open the door for Yu Jingyuan before returning to her seat.

Seeing that she was in a good mood, the three men also hurriedly asked about Yu Jingyuan's identity.

Han Wenya pointed in the direction the two people left and lowered her voice.

"Do you know what our current mayor's last name is?"

President Wang said, "I remember his last name was Yu."

"His name is Yu Jingyuan!"

"You mean..." Mr. Tao put down his glass. "Then why did you let us get his girlfriend drunk?"

"I don't know this!"

Manager Zhou leaned back in his chair and shook his head: "Looking at the way he left, he didn't look very happy."

"Don't worry, I'm Mr. Xun's man. This mayor's son has a special relationship with Mr. Xun."
