After getting off work, Xiang Jin went directly to the place Li Shuhui had specified.
Heaven on Earth Club is one of the most exclusive clubs in Huadu.
This place offers all the high-end services, making it a paradise for the elite and a symbol of extravagance and decadence.
With Xiang Jin's current salary, she would probably have to work for several years to afford such a splurge. Fortunately, she's not paying tonight.
Xiang Jin gave the room number.
The waiter immediately led her upstairs. As she walked, she looked around and secretly marveled at how luxurious it was, a dazzling array of sights and sounds.
The decor is too extravagant; it's a lavish den of riches within a lavish den of riches.
After leading Xiang Jin to the door of the private room, the waiter left, and Xiang Jin pushed the door open and entered.
"Ah Qi is here! Come in quickly!" Li Shuhui greeted her warmly, like a mother would, and took her hand, leading her to the front of the group.
The private room was very large.
The place has everything from chess and cards to singing and tea drinking, and even with ten or so people sitting there, it feels surprisingly spacious.
The room was mostly filled with men, the young ones looking to be in their mid-twenties and the older ones in their mid-forties. They were all dressed like refined gentlemen, and seemed to be upper-class people, hence their arrogance.
Sitting in the very center was a man in his forties or fifties named Yuan Mingzhi, who was Xiang Jin's target for tonight.
Yuan Mingzhi.
The president of the largest investment bank in the domestic system is not only the person Xiang Jia (a prominent family) is most eager to curry favor with, but also the person others are most eager to curry favor with.
"President Yuan, this is our Aqi. She specially came back from abroad just to see you." Li Shuhui smiled dignifiedly and modestly.
"Hello, President Yuan." Xiang Jin raised his wine glass.
"Mrs. Xiang is beautiful, and her daughter is just as beautiful." Yuan Mingzhi picked up his wine glass, clinked it with Xiang Jin's, licked the wine from the corner of his lips, and stared intently at Xiang Jin.
Xiang Jin felt a chill run down her spine from his gaze.
"Not at all, gaining President Yuan's appreciation is more important than anything else. Aqi, let's toast President Yuan again."
Xiang Jin filled the glass with wine and stood up: "President Yuan, I'd like to toast you."
Yuan Mingzhi smiled.
"Miss Xiang, it's not good to drink like this. We're too far apart, it's not convenient to talk."
Xiang Jin understood.
She walked up to him with her wine glass in hand: "President Yuan, please."
Yuan Mingzhi grabbed her wrist, brought the wine glass in her hand to his lips, and then tilted his head back to drink it all in one gulp: "A glass used by a beautiful woman tastes better, right?"
“It’s too far, Miss Xiang, please don’t go back. Just sit here,” Yuan Mingzhi said, pointing to the seat next to him.
Xiang Jin stood still.
Although she had anticipated that this dinner party would be difficult, she never expected it to be this difficult.
Li Shuhui really has a good plan.
"What, Miss Xiang, you won't do me the honor? I dislike forcing women. If you want to go back, then go back." Yuan Mingzhi was still smiling, but there was a hint of distance in his expression.
Noticing that the other person was unhappy, Li Shuhui quickly brought over the wine.
"President Yuan, you've misunderstood. Aqi is just too happy to react. How could she dare not give you face?"
She forced Xiang Jin to sit down and offered a toast with a bright smile: "I'll have to trouble you to take care of the Xiang family's affairs."
Yuan Mingzhi smiled: "No problem."
The drinking party became lively again, with more than a dozen people toasting each other, and some even started singing, their singing was absolutely deafening.
Xiang Jin sat there, toasting one glass after another.
Her face was already flushed, making her even more beautiful. The others seemed to understand each other perfectly and didn't come over.
"I'm afraid Aqi will get drunk easily if we drink like this." After a few drinks, he even changed how he addressed her. Yuan Mingzhi's hand lightly brushed against Xiang Jin's hand, and Xiang Jin frowned slightly.
"So, how would President Yuan like to drink it?"
Xiang Jin forced himself to suppress his discomfort.
"How about we play a game?"
"We'll roll the dice and guess high or low. The winner drinks, and the loser has to kiss the other person—anywhere, you know." Yuan Mingzhi's lustful eyes grew even stronger.
Xiang Jin's expression stiffened slightly.
In an instant, she regained her composure: "President Yuan is a veteran of drinking parties. If Aqi were to associate with you, wouldn't that be taking advantage of you? How about this, I'll toast President Yuan three times first."
Xiang Jin poured three glasses of wine and drank them down in one go.
"Ah Qi has a good capacity for alcohol, I admire you, I admire you." Yuan Mingzhi clapped his hands and gently brushed his hand across her thigh as he raised his hand.
"I need to go to the restroom first."
There was a restroom in the private room, but Xiang Jin didn't want to go; she went straight out of the room.
She rushed to the bathroom at top speed and vomited violently.
My stomach was already a bit upset, and with the alcohol, it felt like it was on fire. But all that's alright, the main problem is that old lecher Yuan Mingzhi, he's really hard to deal with.
Going back might mean facing something even more serious.
Xiang Jin looked at her small, rosy-white face in the mirror.
Another wave of nausea washed over her, and she lay there vomiting again.
"sister in law?"
At this moment, Gu Feiyang came out of the bathroom. He originally wanted to pat her back, but after thinking for a moment, he reached back and handed her a few tissues.
"Thank you." Xiang Jin wiped her mouth, her face even paler.
"What are you doing here? Did you come with my brother?" Gu Feiyang asked.
Xiang Jin shook his head.
Li Shuhui's phone kept ringing. Xiang Jin answered it, and the person on the other end asked urgently in a low voice, "Where have you been? Get back here right now!"
"It's just going to the restroom, what's the rush?"
Xiang Jin hung up the phone.
She looked at Gu Feiyang and said, "I have something to do, so I'll be leaving now."
Gu Feiyang stared thoughtfully at her retreating figure.
"Hey bro, I just saw your wife. She seems to have drunk a lot. Were you with her?"
Xiang Jin returned to the private room.
"President Yuan, Aqi is back." Li Shuhui quickly pushed her to Yuan Mingjie's side. "You stay with President Yuan and don't slack off, okay?"
Xiang Jin nodded and raised his glass again: "President Yuan, please."
Yuan Mingjie covered Xiang Jin's hand with his own: "No rush, let's slow down the drinking first, we can talk about something else."
"Others?"
Xiang Jin struggled, trying to pull her hand back, but failed.
"What kind of man does Aqi like? Is it someone strong and imposing, someone young and promising, or... someone like me?"
Are they starting to flirt?
Xiang Jin put down his wine glass.
She smiled faintly: "Aqi really admires people like President Yuan. He is young and promising, as well as powerful and majestic. He is the kind of male god that many people dream of."
"Really?" Yuan Mingjie chuckled. "Aqi's little mouth is so sweet."
He turned his head slightly and moved closer to Xiang Jin's lips.
"Ouch!" Xiang Jin deliberately knocked herself over, and in the moment she bent down to pick up her phone, she just dodged his kiss.
"Excuse me, what did you just say, President Yuan?"
Yuan Mingjie sat up straight and smiled: "It's nothing, let's continue drinking."
"Okay, I'll toast you!"
Xiang Jin silently breathed a sigh of relief.
After a while of further negotiation, the drinking party finally came to an end.
