Chapter 105.

The driver was notified in advance, so the car was already waiting when the two arrived at the store door. The driver got out and opened the door. Qian Yirong subconsciously put her hand on the door frame and helped Xu Baiqing into the car, and she followed him in.

The driver returned to the driver's seat and randomly started the car. The low-key black car merged smoothly into the traffic flow. After Qian Yirong got in the car, Xu Baiqing took her hand and played with her knuckles. Qian Yirong indulged Xu Baiqing's actions. She rested her head on the armrest of the seat with her other hand and closed her eyes to rest.

Qian Yirong was thinking about the people she had expected to meet at the banquet, and the meanings revealed in their words. Unlike before when she was completely ignored, this time all kinds of people came to talk to her under various pretexts, and many of them even spoke with some flattery. However, Qian Yirong was not someone who was easily fooled by sweet words, so she analyzed some things from their words.

For example, the Mu family is not as glamorous as it appears. The head of the Mu family is not as smart and capable as Grandpa Mu. In fact, the Mu family is already on the decline. However, even if the Mu family is slightly declining, it is not something that people below can provoke.

Only the other three families of the same class as the Mu family could take advantage of the situation and swallow the Mu family at this time. However, if they rushed too far, the Mu family would fight to the death and might drag one of the other families down with them. This was the reason why the four families maintained a precarious balance.

If Mu Zexuan grows up and can turn the tide, the current situation will remain unchanged. Therefore, the other three companies are actually in a wait-and-see stage. Perhaps this situation will not change for more than ten years.

However, Qian Yirong's sudden appearance has made the situation confusing. Qian Yirong is obviously outstanding now, and she has seized the opportunity to rise. Everyone can see that as long as the Chengdong project progresses smoothly, she can become the person who can control the situation within a few years.

In order to avoid being caught in the tail of the typhoon during the turmoil, many people want to take the opportunity to jump onto Qian Yirong's ship, which is obviously running smoothly and rising. Moreover, Qian Yirong has not yet developed to its peak. Instead of waiting for the dust to settle and only adding icing on the cake, it is better to rely on the past at this time to gain more attention from Qian Yirong.

Therefore, these people revealed the most information. Qian Yirong also saw the inside story that was not in the so-called plot. The so-called four major families were all related, but they were just worried that if they attacked one of the families, they would be killed together in a desperate fight.

Qian Yirong also understood why, even though she had slapped the head of the Qu family in the face, he didn't dare to turn against her with all his strength, because the other three families would really take the opportunity to attack the Qu family.

This is also the fundamental reason why Qian Yirong got the opportunity for development. The four families were not united at all, but this was just right. Qian Yirong could take advantage of this opportunity to rise rapidly.

If these people who are attached to the Mu family want to surrender to her, then there should be such speculators in other families as well. Perhaps those four families will hate these speculators to the core, but for Qian Yirong, she will never refuse anyone, so she should attend more banquets to which she is invited, and maybe there will be an unexpected surprise.

Qian Yirong decided to introduce several sincere company leaders to Ruan Rongzhen. She was more informed about the information in this area than herself, and could tell whether these people were sincere or not. She also happened to be very good at this kind of thing.

"Boss, we're here." The driver reminded as the car stopped in the villa's parking lot.

"Well, drive this car to the company later, and then you can go home from get off work." Qian Yirong said.

"Got it, boss." The driver replied. Qian Yirong and Xu Baiqing got out of the car and entered the villa. The driver then obediently drove away.

At the banquet, Qian Yirong couldn't help but drink some wine while entertaining people. Although no one would force her to drink, she still drank some out of courtesy. However, for Qian Yirong, this amount of wine was nothing, but Qian Yirong pretended to be nine parts drunk.

When the doctor in the hospital announced that Xu Baiqing's injury was no longer a problem, Qian Yirong saw Xu Baiqing's eyes suddenly brighten up and the burning look she gave her. If it weren't for the banquet, Qian Yirong, who felt that she was not Xu Baiqing's "opponent", would have avoided her.

But for various reasons, she and Xu Baiqing are now alone. Qian Yirong sensed the "danger" in the car, so she was actually pretending to be drunk. Although she did not rule out further development with Xu Baiqing, she was still a little uncomfortable with letting Qian Yirong, who was always used to taking the lead, fall into a disadvantage.

So she pretended to be drunk in order to escape the evil. However, Xu Baiqing, who didn't know Qian Yirong's alcohol tolerance, didn't realize this. He thought Qian Yirong was really drunk, and his face showed a somewhat anxious look.

"Rongrong, sit here first." Xu Baiqing helped Qian Yirong, who was walking unsteadily, to sit down on the sofa in the living room, then immediately went into the kitchen and started to cook a hangover soup.

Fortunately, Qian Yirong had all the ingredients at home, so Xu Baiqing didn't have to worry about what happened. Not long after, Xu Baiqing came out of the kitchen with a bowl of steaming hangover soup.

She looked at Qian Yirong, who was leaning on the sofa with flushed cheeks. She felt worried and anxious, but something was brewing in her heart. After all, Qian Yirong, who was usually strong and generous, seemed to be letting her manipulate her at this moment, which made Xu Baiqing couldn't help but have some thoughts.

But all his thoughts were suppressed by his concern. Xu Baiqing sat beside Qian Yirong with some hangover soup in his hand and said softly and gently, "Rongrong, I made some hangover soup. Drink it first, or you'll have a headache tomorrow."

Qian Yirong opened her "confused" eyes. She felt that her acting skills had improved by leaps and bounds in front of Xu Baiqing. She obediently drank the sobering soup when Xu Baiqing fed her. Qian Yirong felt a little proud of her proper response.

Watching Qian Yirong drink the sobering soup, Xu Baiqing breathed a sigh of relief. When his worries faded away, the "evil" thoughts in his heart naturally surfaced. Looking at Qian Yirong's "confused" look, Xu Baiqing felt that she was about to be unable to suppress the thoughts in her heart.

"Rongrong," Xu Baiqing swallowed her saliva. She forced herself to look away, helped Qian Yirong up and said, "Let's go back to the room and rest."

When Qian Yirong's soft, fragrant body, reeking of alcohol, pressed against her, the fire in Xu Baiqing's heart, which had never been extinguished, suddenly burned fiercely like fuel. However, Xu Baiqing didn't want her and Qian Yirong to take the next step when she was drunk, so she pursed her lips and suppressed the fire in her heart.

Xu Baiqing helped Qian Yirong lie down on the bed. Looking at her drunken yet extremely seductive appearance, his eyes darkened. Qian Yirong noticed that Xu Baiqing's gaze was becoming more and more dangerous, and her heart began to beat fast. She wondered if she was shooting herself in the foot.

Qian Yirong waited anxiously for a while before she noticed Xu Baiqing's footsteps leaving. She breathed a sigh of relief, but before she opened her eyes, she realized something was wrong, because she didn't hear the door closing but instead heard the faint sound of water.

Then after a while, Qian Yirong heard approaching footsteps and something was placed on the bedside table. When the sound of water stopped, Qian Yirong opened her eyes excitedly at the feeling of a hot towel wiping her neck.

"Wipe it off and then change your clothes. This way you will sleep more comfortably." Although Xu Baiqing knew that Qian Yirong was drunk, he still subconsciously explained under Qian Yirong's gaze.

She had originally wanted to take a bath with Qian Yirong, after all, they had done this before, but the change in their relationship made Xu Baiqing less confident in her self-control. She felt that if she really took a bath with Qian Yirong, she would not be able to control herself and do something.

So she decided to settle for the next best thing and wipe Qian Yirong's body and help her change into pajamas to reduce the chances of her losing control. However, she seemed to have underestimated Qian Yirong's attraction to her. Before she even took off her clothes, she couldn't help but want to do something. The more she endured and suppressed herself, the more she lost control.

"I've taken so much care of you, it's not too much to ask for some compensation, right?" Although Xu Baiqing was asking, she obviously didn't need Qian Yirong's answer. She convinced herself smoothly and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Before Qian Yirong could react, Xu Baiqing leaned over from above. Qian Yirong's vision darkened and she was kissed by Xu Baiqing. This kiss was different from the previous ones that were gradual. Xu Baiqing took advantage of her lack of reaction to pry open her lips and teeth, hooked her tongue and entangled it with hers.

Qian Yirong accidentally fell completely into Xu Baiqing's rhythm and subconsciously cooperated with him. When both of them were having difficulty breathing, Xu Baiqing slightly distanced himself from Qian Yirong.

Qian Yirong was breathing heavily with her red lips slightly parted, her eyes full of spring tears. Looking at her, Xu Baiqing almost couldn't help but do something even more excessive, making Qian Yirong reveal more aspects of herself that no one else could ever see.

However, Xu Baiqing restrained the desire in her heart. She took a deep breath and began to wipe Qian Yirong's body and change her clothes properly. After changing Qian Yirong into comfortable pajamas, Xu Baiqing gave her a restrained kiss on the forehead, poured a cup of warm water and placed it on her bedside, and then reluctantly left Qian Yirong's room.

Qian Yirong suddenly opened her eyes after hearing the sound of the door closing. Her face flushed red and she picked up the warm water on the bedside table and drank it all. It was obvious that apart from that overly passionate kiss, Xu Baiqing did not do anything out of the ordinary.

But Qian Yirong became even more agitated. She looked at the closed door with fear, always feeling that no matter how much progress she made, she could never compare to Xu Baiqing. A feeling of simply accepting her fate rose in her heart.

Anyway, it's not that she doesn't intend to take the next step with Xu Baiqing, she just wants to be the one who takes the initiative. However, seeing that she seems to be no match for Xu Baiqing in taking the initiative, she feels a little unhappy.

Rather than letting the two of them get stuck in a stalemate and affect their relationship, it would be better to let Xu Baiqing take the lead. Qian Yirong felt that she could not compete with Xu Baiqing by only learning theoretical knowledge. After practice, she might be able to draw inferences from one instance to another, and it would not be too late to counterattack then.

However, Qian Yirong couldn't call Xu Baiqing back now. But Qian Yirong had decided not to escape anymore. She would just let things take their course. After convincing herself, all the emotions in Qian Yirong's heart calmed down. She no longer worried about those things, and Qian Yirong's mood became better than ever. She fell asleep in a short while.
