Chapter 147 I fell for it, did you tamper with my drink?
"Shut up! Nanxia and I are a legitimate couple now. You, a homewrecker, have the nerve to call others vixens?"
"Get out." Shen Yan deliberately spoke loudly, wanting to protect Nan Xia's reputation and also take the opportunity to announce their relationship.
Immediately, everyone started criticizing Gu Yaoyao and looked at her with mocking eyes.
Nanxia glanced at him and frowned slightly. She didn't want to make it public; after all, they were just a fake couple, and it wouldn't be good for the rumors to spread.
In the crowd not far away, Song Yanzhi saw that the man had announced their relationship to the outside world, and his face turned even colder. He had even hit Gu Yaoyao in public.
I wonder if that woman will dare to do what she does next?
Won't she get so angry she runs away?
Gu Yaoyao glanced at the pointing fingers and whispers around her, covered her face, and glared at them fiercely:
"I'm the one your parents acknowledged as their arranged marriage partner. Who is she? Your aunt and uncle never even acknowledged her!"
"I admit it, so why aren't you leaving? Do you want to get beaten up again?" Shen Yanchen looked at her angrily, his eyes full of disgust.
Seeing his fierce expression, Gu Yaoyao ran away crying, feeling both angry and aggrieved!
"Thanks for earlier." Nan Xia was very grateful for his protection earlier.
"You are my woman now, so of course I will protect you. No matter what you do in the future, whether it's right or wrong, I will never be like that man who doesn't protect his own woman but cares for and protects other women." Shen Yan held her hand and promised her.
Nanxia was slightly taken aback when she heard his words, and she was indeed a little moved... This feeling was like a gentle application of medicine to a freshly injured wound.
"Don't you care that I slept with him?" she asked in a low voice.
“I care, but I can’t help liking you… As long as I can be with you, I don’t care about anything else…” Shen Yan gazed at her with deep affection, as if there were only the two of them there.
Nanxia's heart skipped a beat when she heard his words. She needed to calm down; she couldn't let herself get too emotional.
*Smack!!!*
Not far away, Song Yanzhi watched their affectionate expressions, his cold eyes like arrows, the light reflecting off them sending chills down one's spine. The wine glass in his hand shattered with a crash.
What Shen Yan said to her pierced his heart even more deeply.
He now understands where he went wrong.
He shouldn't have rationally judged who was right and who was wrong; not only did he fail to protect her, he also hurt her.
A shard of glass got embedded in his palm, but he didn't feel any pain.
"Now you know where you went wrong? No wonder Nanxia doesn't want you anymore!"
"Alright, hurry up and come with me to stop the bleeding, your hand is bleeding." Seeing that her son's hand was bleeding a lot, Madam Song couldn't bear to scold him anymore and dragged him to the private room.
He went inside, forced the boy to sit on the sofa, and said to him in a deep voice, "What's the use of being angry now? It's only real skill to snatch her away."
As she spoke, Madam Song picked out the shards of glass from his palm, then grabbed a handful of tissues and pressed them against the wound. She glanced at him coldly.
"They've only just begun; they have plenty of opportunities ahead of them."
Song Yanzhi glanced at his mother, took out his phone, and dialed the bodyguard's number. It rang twice before being answered. He asked in a deep voice:
"Have you seen Gu Yaoyao? Did she run back?"
He had texted his bodyguard beforehand, instructing him to stand guard at the elevator entrance and not let Gu Yaoyao leave, making sure she finished her performance tonight no matter what.
"I intercepted her at the elevator, but I managed to persuade her, and she's back at the party now," the bodyguard reported.
"Okay, remember to get all the hotel's surveillance footage sorted out tonight, don't leave any clues," Song Yanzhi instructed again, knowing that Shen Yan would definitely investigate.
"Yes, Young Master Song, don't worry," the bodyguard replied.
Outside, Nanxia said to the man beside her, "I need to go to the restroom to fix my dress. You can continue with the business."
"I'll go with you." Shen Yan could tell that she had fallen for him, and he was filled with anticipation, especially since he still needed to consider Yao Yao's appearance.
If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have had the chance to shine.
"No need, I don't think it will be that soon. It would be so awkward if you kept standing by the restroom. I didn't drink tonight, I'm perfectly sober, don't worry."
After she finished speaking, she handed him the wine glass and went to the restroom. There were no spare dresses available, so she could only wash her hands with hand sanitizer.
Hopefully it can be washed off.
Strange, Madam Song called me over, but I can't see her here.
Outside, a waiter carrying a tray of red wine approached Shen Yan and respectfully asked, "Would you like to change your drink, sir?"
Shen Yan glanced at him, placed the two empty wine glasses in her hand on the tray, took a new glass, and continued to socialize among the crowd.
In the corner, Gu Yaoyao stared at him through gritted teeth, and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw him sip the wine here and there.
A sinister smile involuntarily crept onto his face.
Is this considered a success?
To punish him, she went all out! If he doesn't find a woman tonight, he's really going to have a stroke...
But how could I let his blood vessels burst?
"Tonight, I must get pregnant with his child. Then, even if he doesn't want to take responsibility, he'll have to. I can also take the opportunity to drive that vixen away." Gu Yaoyao muttered to herself.
"Luckily, that stranger persuaded me. If I had really left, I wouldn't have had such a good opportunity." She snorted and waited for Brother Yan's drug to take effect.
Shen Yan had only been socializing for a few minutes when her head suddenly felt dizzy, her vision blurred, and it felt as if a raging fire had been ignited within her body, rapidly spreading to her limbs and bones.
It's very uncomfortable.
He glanced down at the wine glass in his hand. Damn it… who was plotting against him?!
He looked around, but all the figures were blurry and he couldn't see anyone suspicious. He covered his head with one hand, shook it, and staggered towards the restroom.
I'm going to wash my face to wake myself up.
While you're at it, go find Nanxia—
Seeing that he went towards the restroom, Gu Yaoyao quickly followed. She couldn't let him go to that vixen. Humph, she wasn't here tonight to be a stepping stone for them!
Shen Yan walked to the restroom area, but hesitated to push open the women's restroom door directly, fearing he would be mistaken for a pervert. His father's reputation was already ruined; he couldn't afford to ruin his own.
He went to the men's restroom first, staggered to the sink, turned on the tap and splashed cold water on his face.
After washing for several minutes, not only did it not relieve the discomfort at all, but my body felt increasingly uncomfortable.
It felt as if my whole body was being roasted over a fire, and my rationality was growing weaker and weaker.
Gu Yaoyao was getting anxious waiting outside. Was he going to find a man inside to take care of things? Why hadn't he come out yet?
Just as she was having these wicked thoughts, the door to the men's restroom opened, and she was overjoyed to see him emerge. She immediately went over to support him and called out in a sweet, coquettish voice:
"Brother Yan... are you alright?"
Although Shen Yan couldn't see the person clearly, he heard her voice and realized what was happening. He angrily pushed her away: "Did you tamper with my drink?!"
"No, it wasn't me. I was just passing by and saw that you seemed unwell, so I kindly came to ask you." Gu Yaoyao clung tightly to his arm, feeling guilty and unwilling to admit it.
Shen Yan didn't believe her at all; it was definitely her who did it. His disgust for her grew even stronger. He shoved her away with all his might, enraged.
"Get out of here!"
Gu Yaoyao was pushed and fell to the ground. She was furious. Did he hate me that much?
I absolutely have to sleep with him tonight!
