Chapter 68 I got into his car
Only after the two left did this farce come to an end.
Most of the onlookers felt neither sympathy nor satisfaction at the fate of the two men; they were only deeply shocked.
In their minds, those who are not to be trifled with are easily trampled underfoot, and they don't even dare to resist.
Shocking, terrifying! These people are at the top of the food chain!
People don't teach people; events teach people, leaving a deep impression.
Today's events made them realize that no matter who it is, you shouldn't offend them easily, because there might be someone behind them whom you can't even look up to.
Being more tolerant of others is giving yourself more options.
Giving others more respect is giving yourself more dignity.
The onlookers left on their own, including the group that had been inside the private room.
Only Li He and his group, his secretariat, and Shen Lu remained.
Huo Ran glanced around and said with a smile, "Please sit down, there are no outsiders here now."
Those standing included several men from the secretariat and friends brought by Shen Lu.
Shen Lu's friend was extremely nervous at this moment. Thinking about how he had been pestering Bo Wei before, he felt a little scared after seeing Li He's actions.
Everyone was reserved and dared not sit down.
Shen Lu stepped forward and poured a glass of wine, saying to Li He, "Cousin, I'll punish myself with this glass. Tonight is Yangyang's birthday, and I wanted to invite my friends over to relax, but I didn't expect this to happen. It's my fault for not managing the situation well, which is why Secretary Bo has been wronged."
With that, he drank it himself.
cousin!
Everyone was astonished.
Zhou Yang looked at him blankly, having never heard him mention it before.
Li He looked at Shen Lu, feeling neither unfamiliar nor close.
The Shen family was his grandmother's family.
Shen Lu was the grandson of his grandmother's younger brother, and a little younger than him.
They don't have much contact with their younger generations, but they're not strangers.
Li He: "Sit down, everyone."
Bo Wei was in a state of confusion. It was one thing for outsiders to misunderstand their relationship, since it was all for her sake.
But now everyone inside is like this, which is making her a bit flustered. She wants to explain, but that would seem ungrateful.
Everyone sat down.
Wendy moved further in, sitting next to one of the others, and Xu Xiangying moved to the left as well.
When Bo Wei was pushed by her, she subconsciously moved to the side, but she was right next to Li He. She wanted to retreat, but Xu Xiangying had already taken up the space of those two fists.
The two were almost touching, their hips and legs were almost touching, and their arms were almost touching.
Bo Wei dared not move again. She glanced at Li He out of the corner of her eye, but saw that he did not react. Instead, he looked at Shen Lu and asked, "Is Zhou Yang your girlfriend?"
Shen Lu nodded.
Zhou Yang moved his lips but did not deny it. "But I didn't know about your relationship with Shen Lu before, although he knew that I worked under you."
Li He understood what she meant, of course. "Yes, it's fine."
Shen Lu: ...
If there were two cups of poison in front of him, Zhou Yang would definitely push the poisoned cup to himself, and he would do so in a very generous way.
"This kid is actually your relative? Why didn't you bring your cousin out for a walk when he was being bullied like that earlier?"
Shen Lu: "...I know that President Huo and my cousin are good friends. I was thinking of asking you for a favor at the end, but you came."
"Luckily we came. Damn it, otherwise Secretary Bo's neck would have been snapped today."
Bo Wei stood up and bowed to each of them to express her gratitude, "Thank you, President Li, thank you, President Huo, thank you, President Lu, thank you, President Shen, thank you everyone. If it weren't for you today, I really wouldn't know what to do. Thank you all."
Huo Ran said, "Hey, don't be so formal. We're fine with it; we didn't do much."
He looked at Li He and continued, "The credit goes entirely to someone. If you want to thank someone, thank him. Come, pour some wine and toast him. Even if he didn't do any great work, he still put in a lot of effort. That kick took a lot of energy, and releasing the cold air also consumed a lot of internal energy."
Bo Wei pursed her lips, poured two glasses of wine from the bottles on the table, and picked up one.
Under everyone's gaze, she turned to Li He, handed him the wine with both hands, and said, "Mr. Li, I'd like to propose a toast to you, thank you."
Li He watched her without saying a word, and after she finished speaking, he took the wine glass.
Bo Wei hurriedly turned around and brought over her glass of wine, only to see Li He tilt his head back and finish the glass in one gulp.
This left Bo Wei somewhat stunned. Just as she was in a daze, Li He took the glass of wine from her hand and drank it all in one gulp.
After drinking two glasses of wine, he remained expressionless and looked at her gently, saying, "You can't drink alcohol. Drink more water to soothe your throat, or it might hurt for many days."
Bo Wei had intended to explain things properly to President Li, and took a small sip, but unexpectedly...
Her expression immediately became exceptionally calm. She blinked rapidly a few times, then lowered her eyes and thanked him in an extremely soft voice, "Thank you, Mr. Li."
Everyone averted their gazes, remaining silent.
After everyone had a few drinks, just to show their appreciation,
Li He then stood up and said, "Disperse."
At the entrance of Yaoxiang Pavilion, Li He's driver opened the car door and waited. Li He looked at her and said, "Let's go, I'll take you home."
Bo Wei glanced around; no one was looking her way. Everyone was busy waiting for a car, hailing a taxi, or getting on.
She sighed inwardly, but did not refuse, and got into his car.
After getting on the bus, she sat in the inner seat as usual.
Li He got into the car and sat next to her.
The driver closed the car door, and the space became cramped and dark.
The car slowly drove away. Bo Wei glanced at Yaoxiang Pavilion and secretly vowed that she would never come here again.
She looked away and inadvertently noticed that Li He had been watching her the whole time.
She lowered her eyes quietly, feeling restrained and nervous.
Li He raised his hand and pressed something, and the front and back rows were slowly separated into two independent spaces.
Bo Wei glanced at Li He hurriedly, her eyes filled with panic...
