☆, Chapter 23: Drunk

Lu Congxu returned to the box alone. Seeing this, the producer stood up and asked, "Where is Mr. Chen?"

"He left early because of something." Lu Congxu explained lightly and went to sit down in his seat.

The producer was a little confused, but seeing his stern face, he didn't dare to ask more questions.

For someone of Chen Yaoqing's status, sleeping with a young actress is just a matter of a word. Since she didn't come back, she probably wasn't very interested. The producer who had originally wanted to use this opportunity to attract more investment was a little depressed.

This made him lose interest in staying any longer, so he left on the pretext of receiving a phone call.

Director Lin and his friends were the only ones in the box for a moment, making conversation much more convenient.

Director Lin is a drama fanatic and admires Wen Mianyu very much. He has endless things to talk about with her when talking about movies.

Wen Mianyu has always been serious about professional matters, and she became more and more involved in the conversation without realizing it. When she came to her senses, she found that it was almost ten o'clock.

She couldn't help but turn her head and look to the side, wondering why Lu Congxu didn't ask to go back?

This was an amazing sight. The man was leaning on the table with one hand supporting his forehead, holding a wine glass in the other and sipping red wine slowly, with his eyes narrowed and he looked drunk.

I looked at the table again, and wow, there were two empty red wine bottles next to it!

This guy drank two large bottles of red wine?

Wen Mianyu was stunned and hurriedly stopped Director Lin from talking nonstop, "Director Lin! Director Lin! It's getting late. I think we should stop talking here for today. Mr. Lu seems to have drunk too much."

Director Lin glanced at Lu Congxu and was also startled when he heard this. He hurried forward to support him, "Oh, what's going on? Why is Congxu drunk? Isn't he usually not a drinker?"

Lu Congxu has a serious personality and rarely gets involved in bad habits. He never drinks unless it is necessary at a dinner party.

Now not only did he drink, he also drank so much silently. It's no wonder Director Lin was surprised.

Wen Mianyu stepped forward and together with Director Lin helped Lu Congxu out of the hotel.

I found Lu Congxu's car outside the gate. The door was locked and the assistant was not inside.

"Didn't he bring his assistant?" Wen Mianyu held Lu Congxu steady with one hand and reached into his trouser pocket with the other hand to feel for the car keys.

"His assistant was on vacation for something, so he drove here. He didn't plan to drink, but he ended up getting drunk." Director Lin took out his phone, "Let me call my assistant over."

"Director Lin, you also drank. The assistant is coming here. How are you going to go back?" Wen Mianyu asked.

"I can just find a designated driver. Unlike you public figures who are afraid of being recognized, it's not safe to call a designated driver when Cong Xu is so drunk." Director Lin said.

Wen Mianyu fumbled for a long time before finally finding the key. She took it out of Lu Congxu's trouser pocket and said, "Don't bother. I haven't drunk any alcohol. I'll drive Mr. Lu home."

"Can you do it?" Director Lin looked at her uncertainly.

"Don't worry, I'm a good driver." Wen Mianyu pressed the key and unlocked the car.

"Okay then." Director Lin and she helped Lu Congxu onto the back seat and warned, "Be careful on the road."

"Director Lin, be careful on the road." Wen Mianyu waved and got into the car.
