Chapter 445 is very annoying
Sun Miao said matter-of-factly, "Isn't Shen Boyan a virgin? What if He Yu sleeps with him..."
Before she could finish speaking, Shen Boyan, in the passenger seat, interrupted her, unable to bear it any longer, "Shut up, don't drag me into your conversation!"
Sun Miao shrank back and exchanged a glance with Tao Yang.
Tao Yang lowered his voice and asked her softly, "How do you know He Yu isn't a virgin?"
"She's so old, and she wanted to sleep with Boyan the moment she met him, so it can't be her."
"Your analysis makes a lot of sense."
Qiao Xing took out his earphones from his pocket, put them on, and turned the music up to the maximum, cutting off their conversation.
They arrived at the restaurant quickly, and Qiao Xing hurriedly got out of the car and walked into the restaurant.
He Yu finally arrived after waiting for a long time.
He Yu pushed open the door to the private room and glanced at Shen Boyan first, then smiled and said, "Sorry, I was late because of traffic."
Tao Yang immediately stood up and pulled out a chair for her. "It's not late, it's not late. We just arrived."
He Yu thanked him. He had originally wanted to go to Shen Boyan's side, but now he could only sit next to Tao Yang.
Qiao Xing asked the waiter to serve the food. With Tao Yang there, she didn't need to deal with He Yu.
Tao Yang showered her with compliments for ages, and He Yu had heard it so many times before, but she maintained a smile throughout.
After Tao Yang finished speaking, she gave a perfunctory reply and then turned her gaze to Qiao Xing, asking, "Miss Qiao, you and our CEO Xiao have known each other for a long time, haven't you?"
After these words were spoken, the private room fell silent.
Tao Yang and Sun Miao both looked at Qiao Xing with complete confusion, and even Shen Boyan looked at Qiao Xing.
Qiao Xing's heart skipped a beat. Was He Yu coming for her?
She wasn't quite sure what He Yu meant, but she obviously couldn't admit it. If she did, and He Yu hadn't made any payments for so many days, and she hadn't even gone to see Xiao Lin, it was hard to guarantee that Tao Yang and the others wouldn't overthink it.
Qiao Xing forced a smile, "Which Mr. Xiao?"
"Li Ya and that CEO Xiao are, of course, my bosses."
Qiao Xing feigned sudden realization, "Oh, right, it's the CEO Xiao I met when I accompanied my cousin-in-law to her job interview last time?"
A hint of doubt flashed in He Yu's eyes. "So, you don't recognize me?"
Qiao Xing nodded, "I don't know her. That was the first time I met President Xiao. I didn't even know her surname was Xiao until you told me."
"How did you find out about our project?"
Qiao Xing casually made up a story, "My cousin-in-law was applying for a store manager position, and they were talking about the company's development, which happened to come up with this project, so I asked about it."
He Yu's gaze lingered on Qiao Xing's face, as if trying to see right through her.
After a moment, He Yu suddenly smiled and said, "So that's how it is. I thought we knew each other."
Qiao Xing said, "How could that be? If I knew her, wouldn't I just go to her directly?"
She phrased it euphemistically, but everyone could tell she was referring to the payment.
"I understand now. It seems our collaboration is fate." She picked up her wine glass. "Let's have a drink to celebrate our successful collaboration."
Qiao Xing secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She also picked up her wine glass, stood up, and drank with everyone.
Tao Yang said over there, "We are grateful for Mr. He's trust in us, and we hope that Mr. He will continue to take care of us in the future."
"Actually, I'm just an employee, so I can't really offer any special treatment. But if there's any suitable business in the future, I'll help you with introductions."
Although it was just a polite remark, Tao Yang was still very happy.
Just as he was about to offer another toast, He Yu said, "I have high hopes for you all. You are all outstanding young talents, especially President Shen. Not only is he exceptionally talented, but he is also a good person. He is sure to have a bright future."
Tao Yang awkwardly put the wine glass back, realizing that she actually wanted Shen Boyan to drink with her.
Shen Boyan picked up his wine glass and stood up. "Mr. He, you flatter me. Let me toast you."
He Yu smiled and bumped hands with him, her eyes practically glued to Shen Boyan. That's just how people are; the more unattainable something is, the more they want it.
If Shen Boyan had given in to her from the beginning, she might not have been so interested. But Shen Boyan ignored her for several days, and the more indifferent he was to her, the more intense her gaze became.
Everyone present could see He Yu's feelings for him.
It seems that Shen Boyan is in for a lot of trouble during this period of cooperation.
Qiao Xing wasn't a good drinker, and after just two glasses of baijiu (Chinese liquor), he was already feeling the effects.
Fortunately, He Yu's attention was on Shen Boyan, and Shen Boyan drank most of the wine.
He Yu chatted with them, making small talk, but seven out of ten sentences revolved around asking about Shen Boyan, while Tao Yang changed the subject for the other three sentences.
Qiao Xing was drowsy and couldn't get a word in edgewise, so she secretly took out her phone and chatted with Qin Ce under the table.
I reported the project progress to him and also gave him a compliment.
Qin Ce simply replied: Don't drink.
Qiao Xing twitched the corner of her mouth and typed: I've already drunk it, but it's okay, I'm not drinking anymore.
Qin Ce: Isn't He Yu annoying?
Qiao Xing was a little dizzy, and he really disliked He Yu. When He Yu asked him that question, Qiao Xing typed out what was on his mind.
Qiao Xing: Yeah, it's really annoying.
Qin Ce was fiddling with his phone, pondering something, when another message from Qiao Xing popped up.
Qiao Xing: She's still trying to get Shen Boyan drunk right now. It feels like she won't give up until she sleeps with him. I wonder if he can hold out until the project is over.
Qin Ce raised an eyebrow slightly.
He replied: This just shows that she is a determined person, persistent in her work, and very capable.
Qiao Xing was taken aback: Are you praising her?
Qin Ce: I'm just stating the facts. Don't judge a person by appearances. You might find her annoying, but Xiao Lin might like her a lot.
Qiao Xing was a little slow to react, but he felt that Qin Ce's words made sense.
Different perspectives lead to different opinions.
Qin Ce sent another message: Stop drinking.
Qiao Xing: I understand.
She put away her phone. He Yu was still chatting with Shen Boyan; she wanted to go to the next event.
Qiao Xing said, "Mr. He, I'm sorry, I have something to take care of at home, so I might have to go first. Why don't you go ahead?"
He Yu glanced at her and nodded, "It's alright, you go ahead with your work."
"I'm so sorry."
He Yu smiled and nodded, indicating that she could leave.
Qiao Xing picked up his bag, said goodbye to Tao Yang and the others, and went out to pay the bill.
Those three people were practically penniless; they were unlikely to pay the bill. Anyway, Qiao Xing had kept all the receipts and would get reimbursed later.
To prevent Tao Yang from waking her up like last time, she transferred the money for the second half of the event to them. She didn't know how much it would cost to go to that kind of club, but transferring 10,000 should be about right.
After finishing all this, Qiao Xing got into the car, exhausted.
Xing Jiu drove her home, but before they had gone far, Qiao Xing hurriedly told him to stop the car.
"What's wrong, Miss Qiao?"
Before Qiao Xing could answer him, she pushed open the car door, covered her mouth, and ran to the roadside to vomit.
