Chapter 320 He doesn't want to recognize her
As soon as the box door opened.
Qiao Xi raised her eyes and saw the man standing in the backlight. The corners of her mouth curled up, and her eyes were full of him.
"Mr. Huo!"
Huo Xingzhou walked closer, touched her cheek and said, "You've been waiting for a long time."
"No, I just got here. Lao Chen went to get me a private room..."
When Qiao Xi saw him, all her bad mood disappeared. She also put aside the little conflict in the hospital.
The man said, "They all want to see you. Do you want to come in?"
"want!"
Qiao Xi was not shy either.
Sooner or later she would be integrated into his circle, so there was no reason to escape.
"Let's go."
Huo Xingzhou took her hand and walked inside.
As soon as Qiao Xi appeared, the box became lively.
She is pretty and bright, and greets everyone gracefully.
"Mrs. Huo is really beautiful. Are all the girls in Haicheng so gentle, bright and charming? I'm looking for someone to introduce me to a girl from Haicheng."
"Mr. Huo is so lucky. I heard that it was your wife who accompanied you through the most difficult period. A wife like this is so rare!"
"A toast to Mrs. Huo!"
They were all very active. Qiao Xi had a strong smile on her face, but her eyes fell on one end of the sofa.
The young man had an elegant figure and exposed cold white skin, but he was leaning in the arms of another person.
Could this be the rumored Master Zhong?
Qiao Xi took a few steps forward and greeted politely, "Hello, Mr. Zhong. Last time at the Jinling Hotel..."
“Ahem…”
Zhong Shao turned his back to Qiao Xi and coughed violently.
Wan Jiang stood aside, blocking Qiao Xi's view, and said, "Mr. Zhong seems to have drunk too much and isn't feeling well. I...I'll take him back to the hotel first. Everyone, keep drinking. This bill will be charged to Mr. Zhong's account! Tomorrow morning, we'll go to Tianyuan Group to sign the contract."
He helped Zhong Shao to stand up slowly and walked out, his body blocking Zhong Shao's face.
Young Master Zhong lay weakly in Wan Jiang's arms without even raising his head.
Qiao Xi frowned slightly, stuck her head out to look a few more times, but couldn't see clearly.
This Mr. Zhong was indeed as weird as she thought!
"Everyone, please enjoy your meal!"
Wan Jiang walked out of the box and did not forget to close the door.
With a bang.
Only after he was isolated from the probing and curious gazes inside did he breathe a sigh of relief.
Zhong Shao stood up straight, and the drunkenness in his eyes was no longer there.
There was a hint of gorgeous red at the corners of his eyes, and his lips were red and his teeth were white.
He spoke, his voice clear and slightly hoarse: "Wan Jiang, who said it was my treat tonight?"
The alcohol and beverage consumption exceeded millions, and Tianyuan Group was begging them to sign the contract.
Why should he treat us!
Wan Jiang was stunned. "Didn't you tell me to finish early? It would be embarrassing to just leave. Why not treat them to a meal and cheer them up?"
Zhong Shao glanced at him and said, "Spending my money to make them happy? You really know how to do business. Huo Xingzhou just said he wanted to leave early, why didn't he feel embarrassed?"
Wan Jiang scratched his head. "Maybe he's just thick-skinned? Master Zhong, I think your hostility towards Mr. Huo is a bit too strong."
Zhong Shao paused, his eyes glistening with tears, and he suddenly showed a bit of affection: "Is it obvious?"
Wan Jiang nodded heavily!
He explained, "Mr. Zhong, I understand! You big bosses are good at using psychological tactics when doing business. You're trying to intimidate them, letting them know how powerful you are and so they don't dare to take shortcuts in the cooperation."
Bullshit psychological tactics!
Zhong Shao's smooth outline was hidden in the dim light. "Is it possible that I just can't stand him?"
Wan Jiang didn't dare to speak, thinking to himself, why would he cooperate with him if he couldn't stand him?
He always felt that Master Zhong was not in such a good mood at the moment.
Young Master Zhong was drunk and said, "Wan Jiang, let's drive to Moon Village now... Forget it, let's go back to the hotel."
He finally changed his mind and decided that Huo Xingzhou's men must be keeping an eye on his whereabouts at all times.
And in the imperial capital, his "good brother" would not miss any chance to turn defeat into victory. He could not expose his weaknesses and bring danger to her.
The most important thing is that a person who had been presumed dead suddenly appeared.
That's so scary!
His mind was full of mixed thoughts and various emotions intertwined and struggling, and ultimately he failed to take that step.
…
Half an hour later.
The social event is over.
Huo Xingzhou and his group left the Shanhai Feast. Jin Kai was drunk. He mumbled, "Boss Huo, we've got the order for tonight! Mr. Zhong... since he's willing to treat us, it's a gesture of goodwill. Signing the contract tomorrow... will be no problem."
He burped and said, "I really admire Mr. Zhou. It's all thanks to him that he got everyone in the capital drunk yesterday that we are where we are today."
Huo Xingzhou also had some respect for this old employee: "Old Chen, call a designated driver for Mr. Jin."
"Yes, Master."
Old Chen supported Jin Kai and said, "Boss Jin, let's get in the car first. Where are your car keys?"
"In my pocket...in my trouser pocket."
Jin Kai was so tongue-tied that he couldn't even speak. "Boss Huo, I, Old Jin, am so lucky to be following you! You are the invincible God of War! You are..."
Qiao Xi stood beside Huo Xingzhou, covering her mouth and laughing.
The entrance to Shanhai Feast was bustling with people, and Jin Kai's display of loyalty was truly eye-catching. Old Chen carried him to the car, closing the door tightly to block out his noisy voices.
Qiao Xi smiled brightly: "Boss Jin is able to sit in the position he is in now, he is really capable!"
"What brush?"
Huo Xingzhou seemed to see through her thoughts and asked further questions.
Qiao Xi said, "They say the truth comes out when drunk. Mr. Jin is really good at flattering people."
“Not as good as you!”
Upon hearing this, Qiao Xi glanced at him.
She tried hard to suppress the upward curl of her lips and murmured softly, "Who wants to flatter you? I'm not as good as Jin Kai."
Huo Xingzhou's eyebrows were thin, and he was smiling: "Then let's go home and try it out, and see who is more powerful."
Qiao Xi snorted and turned away.
Old Chen found a designated driver for Jin Kai, who soon returned in a Rolls-Royce. He opened the door for the two of them, and Qiao Xi and Huo Xingzhou both got in.
"Master, Madam. Are we going straight home?"
"Um."
"Okay."
Lao Chen started the car and drove forward.
There was a Cullinan parked at the corner, and Qiao Xi subconsciously took a look. The car sped past, and through the window she vaguely saw a handsome profile, but it was not quite clear.
Qiao Xi suddenly asked, "Isn't Mr. Zhong's alcohol tolerance very good?"
Huo Xingzhou glanced at her and said, "Not bad."
"Then how did you get me drunk?" She moved closer and took a deep sniff of the alcohol on him.
It's quite heavy.
Qiao Xi was a little dissatisfied: "How much did you drink? You clearly know that your stomach is not in good condition, why did you still indulge yourself?"
"I ate something to fill my stomach before drinking. I followed Dr. Qiao's medical advice. How could I ruin myself so casually?" Huo Xingzhou hugged her and coaxed her in a low voice.
The faint and refreshing masculine scent mixed with the smell of alcohol made Qiao Xi's cheeks red.
She pushed him gently and said, "Why are you saying such sweet words when you're drunk?"
It's quite embarrassing.
His tall figure blocked out most of the light, and he leaned over to her ear and chuckled softly.
This sound was tainted with alcohol.
Qiao Xi felt her body go numb from his laughter.
Huo Xingzhou had sharp eyes and noticed her needle hole, and the smile on his face faded.
Just as she was about to ask, Qiao Xi's phone in her bag started buzzing. She whispered, "I'll take a call first."
It’s so late, and I don’t know who called.
