Chapter 74: Baby, help me?
Jiang Shibai maintained his usual composure and composure. He didn't want to make Xu Xian's class reunion too awkward.
The gentle handling method did not allow An Qianyuan to sense the warning.
Her face darkened, and she spoke in a disdainful tone, trying to sow discord: "You probably don't understand Xu Xian's scheming! She used to rely on this face to become Sheng Anyang's girlfriend, but they broke up after only six months. Sheng Anyang must have discovered her ulterior motives and her vanity."
"A woman like her is very resourceful. I'm afraid you've been deceived by her."
Jiang Shibai's eyes turned completely cold, and his whole body emanated endless coldness, like the ten-thousand-year-old ice and snow in the polar regions.
He held Xu Xian's hand tightly, his tone indifferent, and he fought back without any hesitation, "I know my wife's character better than you do. I don't need to hear about her past from an outsider."
"I appreciate your kindness, but you are not welcome at this dinner."
"Call security in and show the guests away!"
His words were not meant to be insulting, but every word was to defend Xu Xian and express his disgust at An Qianyuan's behavior.
Jiang Shibai is extremely protective of his people and cannot stand anyone insulting Xu Xian openly or secretly, even with just one word.
There was a man and a woman standing in the corner of the box, listening to instructions at any time. When they heard Jiang Shibai's words, they immediately walked towards An Qianyuan's position and called security on the intercom.
An Qianyuan was stunned for a moment. Seeing the waiter pick up her bag and clothes, she quickly stood up and snatched them back, angrily shouting, "What are you doing? This is not your hotel. You have no right to kick me out."
"If you touch my clothes again, I'll call the police."
"Sure, I was just about to call the police!" Xu Xian raised her red lips slightly, without a smile in her eyes, and shook her cell phone.
She originally wanted to teach An Qianyuan a lesson, so she sued her for defamation.
An Qianyuan immediately became anxious when she saw this. She also knew that she was not in the right. If she really called the police and made the matter a big deal, she would lose her job.
Everyone around her remained seated, no one stepped forward to help her. She was completely humiliated and could only stamp her feet in frustration, "Just wait and see."
After saying some harsh words, she went out in a huff with her bag and clothes, and happened to meet the manager and security who had rushed over after hearing the news.
As he took a step out of the door, he clearly heard the manager yelling at Jiang Shibai, "Mr. Jiang, you didn't even tell me you were coming to eat. That's really inconsiderate of you."
An Qianyuan looked back and saw the manager smiling and bending over politely.
This scene made her heart skip a beat. This five-star hotel was of extremely high standards. It was the place where Hai City's business and political circles entertained distinguished guests and was backed by the Jiang Group.
There aren't many people who can make a hotel manager bow down to them.
Jiang Shibai, Jiang Group.
Thinking of this, An Qianyuan's blood froze. She originally thought that Xu Xian dared to speak so arrogantly just because she married the boss of a small company, but now it seems that this is not the case.
Before her heart could completely sink to the bottom, the security personnel who followed her grabbed her and threw her out of the hotel regardless of her struggles.
As for the subsequent dismissal notice she received from the company, she felt deeply regretful.
Jiang Shibai said expressionlessly: "It's okay. Don't let her set foot in Jiang's businesses in the future."
"Okay, Mr. Jiang." The manager responded immediately.
He hadn't received any advance news that Mr. Jiang was coming to have dinner. When he hurried back from outside, he got the news that he had an unpleasant meal.
It's so scary.
Everyone's attention was focused on Jiang Shibai. He smiled calmly and said in a calm voice, "I'm sorry to bother you all. Tonight's expenses will be charged to my account. I hope you all enjoy your meal!"
After that, he turned his head and said to the manager, "Open the wine I put here."
"Yes." The manager was relieved and hurried to the wine cellar in person.
After everyone left, everyone present looked at each other. No one had expected that Jiang Shibai had such a powerful background. Jiang's Group mainly focused on medical equipment, but its business scope was wide and involved all aspects.
This five-star hotel is under the Jiang Group's subsidiary. No wonder the waiters in the private room attacked without saying a word when he said they wanted to kick people out.
After a long time, it turned out that the small company was the Jiang Group.
Oh my goodness! How could Xu Xian marry a boss? He's obviously a wealthy man.
Everyone became interested all of a sudden. The small company and the Jiang Group were not on the same level at all. Although they were in different industries, there was no problem in making friends with the upper echelons.
The man who knew how to handle things immediately raised his glass and greeted everyone, "It's President Jiang! I've heard of you for a long time, and I didn't expect you to marry our department beauty. This is fate! Come, let's toast to President Jiang and the department beauty."
This shrewd person was able to handle things, and he changed the atmosphere of the whole dinner. Everyone in the audience stood up, holding a glass of wine in their hands.
Jiang Shibai also gave some face to Xu Xian's classmates. He calmly picked up the wine glass, stood up, and kept a smile on his lips.
Xu Xian actually doesn't like this feeling. It's obvious that everyone was innocent and played around during their school days, but after entering society, the relationships became distant and interests came first.
But human nature is like this. Even if she doesn't like it, she can't escape it. She didn't show it and stood up with Jiang Shibai. As soon as her fingers touched the red wine glass beside her, someone stuffed a glass of juice into it.
Jiang Shibai calmly handed the juice to her, stared into her surprised eyes, and opened his thin lips slightly, "Drinking alcohol is harmful to your health, drink the juice."
Xu Xian stared at the juice in his palm and smiled helplessly.
She was the only one drinking juice at the table, which was a bit out of place, but she would not refute Jiang Shibai in front of outsiders.
What's more, she could see that Jiang Shibai cared about her.
Everyone at the table noticed the little tricks between the couple and understood what was going on, but no one dared to urge them to drink.
In the drinking culture, the rules are made by those in higher positions.
Jiang Shibai's identity and status make him a rule maker.
Besides, he obviously gave enough respect to everyone present for Xu Xian's sake, and also returned the toast with a glass of wine.
Given his current status, when others toasted him, he would just respond with plain water, and no one dared to say a word.
After the toast, no one paid too much attention to Jiang Shibai, but there were some people who were quick-witted and offered toasts individually. He accepted all of them, especially when he heard the words "Xu Xian's husband", he was like a chicken with its blood pumped up, and drank one glass after another.
Without An Qianyuan, the troublemaker, the atmosphere was very harmonious.
After the dinner, Xu Xian refused their invitation to go to the club again. After saying goodbye to everyone, he got into Jiang Shibai's car.
The street was busy with traffic, and neon lights shone through the windows into the back seat of the Hongqi car. The middle barrier rose up, and two bodies were entangled with each other.
Xu Xian half-sat on Jiang Shibai's legs, leaning in his arms, breathing slightly, the fresh air entering his lungs, his watery eyes sparkling with a hint of mist.
She seriously suspected that Jiang Shi had drunk too much liquor, and he pressed her and kissed her as soon as he got in the car, which was inexplicable.
Jiang Shibai stared at Xu Xian's red lips, occasionally squeezing that soft, boneless hand, his voice hoarse with restraint, "My dear! Did I perform well tonight?"
The faint aroma of wine filled the small space, becoming more intense as his mouth opened and closed, and the mellow aroma of the wine became more intoxicating.
Facing Jiang Shibai's behavior of seeking credit, Xu Xian was not stingy at all and praised him: "Mr. Jiang is a hero who saved the beauty and performed excellently."
"Then can Mrs. Jiang give me some tangible benefits? It makes me feel frustrated every time you praise me verbally." A gleam of light flashed across Jiang Shibai's misty eyes, so fast that no one noticed.
The aggrieved tone makes people feel soft-hearted.
Xu Xian knew what he meant without having to guess, but she couldn't grasp the extent of his intention, so she could only play dumb and ask, "Please explain it more clearly."
Jiang Shibai leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Good boy, help me? I don't like cold showers."
I was dizzy from the kiss just now, and the desire was inevitable.
A warm breath touched his earlobe, and Xu Xian subconsciously tilted his head. When the man thought he would not get an answer, a sweet and soft voice was heard in the quiet air.
"good."
