Chapter 46 Laughter
Li Ji also came to the company's team-building this time.
He was dressed elegantly and handsomely, in a black suit with light dark patterns and an exquisite brooch on his chest. He had broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and was very handsome.
Her hair is combed behind her ears, revealing her full forehead and entire face. Her neck is slender and her Adam's apple is prominent, making her look particularly sexy.
Li Ji wore an obsidian earring on one ear and an obsidian pendant on the other ear.
The interweaving of black and white makes him look even more noble and handsome.
Every frown and smile of hers was filled with seductive charm and enticement. He raised the corners of his lips slightly, swirled the red wine glass between his fingertips, raised it towards Sheng Zhao, and licked the corners of his lips slightly.
Their eyes met, and Sheng Zhao's eyes dimmed slightly.
Li Ji's temperament is completely different from what it was at the beginning. He used to be handsome but always showed gloom and inferiority. Now he is particularly dignified, and no longer has the decadent look he had when he was a resident singer in Hong Ge's nightclub.
Sheng Zhao would get drunk if he touched alcohol, so she usually didn't touch it, but just raised the juice in her hand.
Suddenly, Li Ji burst into laughter.
His eyes curved with laughter, as if he felt that the CEO who stirs up trouble and juice don't go together.
Li Ji slowly walked towards Sheng Zhao, ignoring the little stars around him who came to curry favor with him because of his excellent resources and rapid rise in recent times.
"Dad, you're really pretending."
Someone cursed secretly, but still had a flattering smile on his face.
Sheng Zhao was also chatting idly with the man next to him, obviously absent-minded.
"Mr. Sheng, what do you like to do? There's a new golf course opening in District C. Would you like to check it out?"
The man was mature and handsome, with a slightly honey-colored chest exposed. His eyes were smiling, his voice was hoarse, and the fragrance rushed into Sheng Zhao's nose. The wine glass at his fingertips collided with Sheng Zhao's juice.
Make a crisp sound.
His eyes were dark, with an ambiguous allure.
"I like to rest."
Sheng Zhao imitated Yu Shiyun's half-dead look and spoke with a slack brow.
She really likes to rest, and lying on the sofa is the most comfortable thing for her.
Sheng Zhao's hobbies are not similar to those of most of the princesses in the capital. They like to smoke, drink and play with men, while Sheng Zhao likes to eat and lie on the sofa.
The happiest thing is to finish work and lie on the sofa, with Li Ji's food automatically feeding you.
Probably because he couldn't think of such an answer, the man paused, then smiled and moved closer to Sheng Zhao, "That's right, Mr. Sheng is usually so busy, it's good for him to take a break."
He stared at Sheng Zhao with his eyes fixed, exuding the charm of a mature man. His fingertips moved towards Sheng Zhao, and his breath was as fragrant as orchid.
I almost said - Mr. Sheng, come to my house to rest~
This kind of words.
Then* suddenly, Li Ji pushed the man away.
He raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the man who kept pushing towards Sheng Zhao.
The man is in his thirties, with tanned wheat-colored skin and a constant smile on his lips. He has established himself in the entertainment industry with his mature and sexy persona. He usually plays supporting roles and villains, and his resources are usually mediocre. This year, they are even colder, and he has not been able to get any good scripts or activities.
No wonder he targeted Sheng Zhao.
He Ciyuan raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Li Ji with hostility, paused slightly, and there was a clear meaning in his eyes.
What? Did he steal your woman?
Li Ji's expression grew even colder.
He sighed, stood lazily with his arms around his chest, not caring at all about his exposed chest muscles and collarbone, and looked at Sheng Zhao who was blocked by Li Ji with a little regret.
President Sheng rarely appears in public. This time, he deliberately used his connections to stop a group of little fairies who wanted to hook up with Sheng Zhao. After just a few words, he didn't expect Li Ji to not let him get close.
What about the scene where the Duke beats the mistress?
He Ciyuan sneered slightly and looked at Li Ji with sarcasm.
He Ciyuan really looked down on Li Ji, who had just entered the entertainment industry but had a very high reputation. What kind of true love was there in the entertainment industry? Even though Sheng Zhao had a very high reputation, the century engagement banquet some time ago was witnessed by all, and Chen Shuoxing's scandal had not yet subsided. What qualifications did Li Ji have to look at him with hostility?
However, he was also afraid that the entanglement would make Sheng Zhao unhappy, so He Ciyuan walked towards Sheng Zhao, his eyes seductive and looking at her meaningfully. He pinched a card with his slender fingertips and stuffed the card with the address on it into Sheng Zhao's chest pocket.
Her fingertips gently tapped Sheng Zhao's chest.
It seems to be very purposeful.
"Goodbye, Mr. Sheng——"
The man stretched out his magnetic and low voice, and his eyes were still staring at Sheng Zhao until the last moment of his departure.
Sheng Zhao took a sip of juice and sighed, "It's been a long time since I've seen a man with such a strong sense of purpose."
He swallowed the juice and sighed again.
"What an ambitious man."
Li Ji: ...
Li Ji felt a little embarrassed. He pursed his lips and walked to the corner with Sheng Zhao. Then he reached out and took out the business card, decisively tore it up and threw it into the trash can.
After tearing it, he deliberately raised his eyes to look at Sheng Zhao, his voice hoarse, "I didn't ruin Mr. Sheng's romantic encounter, did I?"
Sheng Zhao shook his head.
She has no interest in this kind of man.
Li Ji felt happy, raised the corners of his lips slightly, raised his head and drank the wine in the glass.
The Adam's apple slid up and down because of swallowing, and a drop of wine slid down the Adam's apple to the collarbone and finally disappeared.
After drinking a few glasses of wine, his eyes became a little moist. The night was hazy here and the place was secluded. Li Ji approached Sheng Zhao, stroking the wine glass in her hand, and said in a low voice, "Mr. Sheng can't drink, right?"
"Would you like to taste the alcohol in my mouth?"
In the night, his eyes became dim. He slightly opened his collar and leaned over to kiss Sheng Zhao.
Before she could kiss Sheng Zhao, he grabbed her throat and pressed her against the wall and kissed her.
The situation reversed in an instant.
The tip of the tongue was invaded and stirred, the mouth became a mess, and breathing was blocked.
“Hmm—”
Li Ji trembled slightly and closed his eyes to respond to the question.
In fact, he couldn't help but think of the man who had just tried to seduce Sheng Zhao, and a vicious sense of superiority inexplicably surged in his chest.
Sheng Zhao, who had been indifferent and had little interest in that man, now pushed him into a corner and kissed him passionately and entangledly.
Li Ji couldn't help but want to laugh.
Before he could laugh, Sheng Zhao bit the tip of his tongue as if to warn him for moving around.
“Woo—”
A whimper.
The tip of my tongue hurts.
Sheng Zhao actually likes biting people much more than he does.
Adam's apple, collarbone... the sharp tips of the teeth will rub against the flesh, while the soft tip of the tongue will lick and soothe.
The two kissed for a long time before they separated. Li Ji's lips were swollen and he was panting. He looked up at Sheng Zhao with seductive eyes and chuckled.
"Huh... Actually, I thought that after you had some red wine, you would leave me here—"
He didn't say the rest of the words, but Sheng Zhao understood what he meant.
But she still paused and said softly, "That's too—wild."
Their flirting was interrupted by approaching footsteps and the gradually increasing sobbing sounds. Li Ji paused and frowned slightly. The two of them looked at the source of the sobbing together.
The blond boy pursed his lips, tears falling one by one. He sobbed and went to the corner to hide his embarrassment. His handsome face was full of tears and his nose was red.
When he turned the corner, he found that there were two other people there.
Xie Huaining suddenly stopped, at a loss for a moment, and looked at each other with Sheng Zhao and Li Ji.
He hurriedly wiped away his tears and whispered softly with a choked voice, "Sheng, President Sheng... and Brother Li..."
Xie Huaining forced a smile, his eyes still red and moist like a little rabbit, but he still smiled and said, "I, I have always been a fan of Brother Li, I didn't expect to meet him here."
"Why are you crying here?"
Sheng Zhao paused slightly before speaking.
Just now, Xie Huaining happily rushed into the crowd and talked and laughed with people, obviously very popular, but now he is hiding and crying alone, which arouses people's curiosity.
"Because... because..." Xie Huaining's eyes were a little evasive, but his eyes quickly turned red.
Only under Sheng Zhao's gaze did he stammer.
"My friend kept saying I went to your lounge on purpose... I didn't, but he said I had ulterior motives, so I got so angry I cried and ran here."
As he spoke, he began to cry again, his voice choked with sobs, "Wu... Yes, I'm sorry, Mr. Sheng, I really didn't mean to go in there. I'm sorry for causing you trouble."
Li Ji's face was cold and expressionless. He reached out and stroked his lips that were swollen from kissing, licked the corner of his lips with the tip of his tongue, and before Sheng Zhao could speak, he said coldly.
"How can you prove that you didn't go in there on purpose?"
Xie Huaining didn't expect that Li Ji would bypass Sheng Zhao and directly question him, so he stopped where he was.
"I, I really didn't mean it. I just don't know the way, Mr. Sheng..."
Faced with Li Ji's aggressiveness, Xie Huaining was like a frightened rabbit, with red eyes as he asked Sheng Zhao for help.
"Before participating in an event, your agent will let you familiarize yourself with the venue, right? They will also tell you the routes that are easy to get lost. How did you get lost in this situation?"
Li Ji's voice was very flat, but he raised his eyebrows and sneered at the brokenness and tear marks on Xie Huaining's face.
Xie Huaining didn't quite understand why Li Ji wanted to interfere in the matter between him and Mr. Sheng. He was at a loss for words and just kept aggrieved, "I'm sorry... I really didn't mean it..."
There was no point in the two of them discussing this issue. Sheng Zhao felt a slight headache and said, "There's no point in dwelling on this."
She looked at the crying Xie Huaining and sighed, "Go tell that friend who thinks you did it on purpose, and tell Mr. Sheng that you didn't do it on purpose, okay?"
Sheng Zhaocai didn't care whether it was intentional or not. There was no way to verify such things. As long as the trouble was solved, it was fine.
Clear soup grandma!
The boy stopped sobbing and looked at her admiringly.
Her eyes sparkled like stars, and she whispered, "Thank you, President Sheng."
He hesitated and wanted to go over and talk to Sheng Zhao, but Li Ji's gaze swept over him, making him give up the idea.
Xie Huaining glanced cautiously at Li Ji, who had a cold face, and then looked at Sheng Zhao. Seeing that Sheng Zhao had no intention of keeping him, he bit his lip and said, "Then Mr. Sheng, I'll be leaving first. Thank you very much."
Watching the young man leave, Li Ji lowered his eyes slightly, his voice low and hoarse, "He obviously did it on purpose."
"How did you tell that?"
Sheng Zhao looked at him with interest.
"Don't I understand what men are thinking?" Li Ji glanced at him and sneered with disdain.
"You're so smart, Li Ji." Sheng Zhao chuckled, and could see that he was in a bad mood.
It was just an ordinary team-building cocktail party, but Li Ji saw two men sticking to Sheng Zhao with a purpose. He felt a little unhappy and his expression was slightly gloomy.
His eyes were dark as he looked at Sheng Zhao and asked, "Do you know what these men outside do?"
...What else could it be? An entertainer, of course.
Sheng Zhao leaned against the fence, her dress outlining her slender and tall waist, and looked at Li Ji with a helpless expression.
"No, it's the human traffickers."
What?
Li Ji's expression remained unchanged. "A woman like you will be caught and eaten clean by bad men like these out there, turning you into crispy pork belly. They approach you just to eat you."
What?
“…I’m the only one who can’t.”
"Puchi——" Sheng Zhao suddenly sneered. She lowered her head and laughed heartily, revealing the tips of her white teeth. "Hahahahahaha..."
The breeze from the balcony blew her hair, and her thick and soft long hair fluttered in the wind.
She raised her eyes and looked at Li Ji with a smile, unable to stop laughing, and asked him, "Hahahaha... Li Ji, hahahaha where did you learn those words from?"
Li Ji paused, touched the tip of his nose with his slender fingertips, glanced slightly, and a smile appeared at the corner of his lips. He seemed a little embarrassed and cleared his throat before speaking.
"...from the love secret book confiscated from Duan Jingrui."
Sheng Zhao was still smiling. It was rare for her to smile so happily. Her hair blowing in the wind outlined her cheeks and also outlined Li Ji's heart.
