Chapter 51
Shen Mingli glanced at the bottle of wine lightly, then his eyes returned to the original place.
"One meal is enough," he said, concisely.
"Ahaha, how can I feel embarrassed about this..." Mo Keyu scratched his head a little embarrassedly.
[Really?]
[As expected of a boss, he is not particular about details.]
[So, should we still tell everyone about the drug dealer today? If we don’t drink or drink and just eat, nothing will happen.]
Shen Mingli loosened his tie. It looked like he had just returned from the company. "Let's eat first, Miss Mo."
After saying that, he walked directly to a position closer to Mo Keyu.
"good."
Mo Keyu ate his meal obediently, and neither of them touched the bottle of drink on the table.
The two of them ate very quietly. Mo Keyu was absorbed in eating. After eating for a while, he noticed that there was someone next to him who just ate a few bites and then peeled shrimps.
"Shen Mingli, it seems that you really like eating shrimps." Mo Keyu said, and swallowed his saliva when he saw Shen Mingli's plate of shrimps.
"These are all for you." He said in a casual tone, but Mo Keyu's heart skipped a beat.
"Really?" Mo Keyu's old face turned red. The other party just nodded slightly. She felt a little uncomfortable whenever she met those eyes.
"Thank you. I'm welcome then."
He peeled the shrimps cleanly, leaving only the tender pink meat, and Mo Keyu just dipped it in sauce and ate it directly.
She thought that as long as they just focused on eating, they would be able to get by safely, but she didn't expect that the attractive beauty would knock on the door directly.
"Hey, handsome guy and beautiful girl, what else do you need?"
[It was the one who said he wanted to use drastic measures in the toilet!]
Mo Keyu immediately became alert, and Shen Mingli's eyes suddenly turned cold.
However, the other party didn't seem to be aware of the current atmosphere. He still walked in with a smile, twisting his waist while walking and deliberately throwing a few seductive glances at Shen Mingli.
All I got was a cold face.
"Handsome guy and beautiful girl, why don't you touch the wine on the table? It will become dry if we just have a simple meal," she walked over, opened the bottle cap, and poured a few glasses of wine for them.
Mo Keyu was speechless. Isn't this acting too poor? He really forced people to drink and stuff. Aren't you afraid of something going wrong? Mr. Shen took over everything here.
[However, thinking back to what she just said about Mr. Gu, could there be someone behind this?]
"I'm not very thirsty and don't want to drink." Mo Keyu refused directly. The man turned his gaze to Shen Mingli, but Shen Mingli gave him a look that made him speechless.
"Aha, ahaha, why are you all so unfriendly? If you need anything, come and find me. I also provide other services, and you can call me individually," she said.
[Other services? OMG, when I booked the restaurant, I wanted to order something special, but I didn’t expect this special restaurant to have special services?!]
[If I had known earlier, I would have ordered the restaurant Fenglou which I often ate in the past. Why am I so careless?]
Mo Keyu turned around to observe Shen Mingli's movements. It was obvious that he was trying his best to tolerate the service style of this inferior restaurant.
"This restaurant has a partnership with the Gu family," he said, "I'll take you back later."
"Yeah, okay." Mo Keyu looked at him and knew that Shen Mingli had noticed something.
However, the other party would not let them go so easily and was still trying to use drastic measures. Mo Keyu must find evidence that the other party had drugged them.
But you can't try the poison on yourself!
Mo Keyu picked up the wine glass, thought for a moment, and then shouted to the waiter outside the door:
"A waiter please!"
Upon hearing the sound, the gorgeous beauty turned her waist and walked in. The other waiters had been sent away long ago, and she had been standing outside the door listening for any movement.
"Hello, what can I do for you?" As soon as the beautiful woman came in, she didn't dare to look at Shen Mingli openly, but gave Mo Keyu a perfunctory smile.
"It's too boring for two people to drink together. I want to find someone to drink with me." Mo Keyu said, also giving a perfunctory smile.
Shen Mingli sat aside and said lazily, "Indeed."
When the other party heard about drinking with him, his eyes immediately lit up. Wouldn’t the plan of getting the other party to drink be successful?
"Hey, guests, I'm the best at drinking. I'm sure you'll be happy. Come on." She said, picking up the two glasses of wine on the table and walking between the seats of Mo Keyu and Shen Mingli, handing them to them at the same time.
Mo Keyu took the wine glass, handed it to her, and said, "Actually, I'm not very good at drinking. How about you drink a glass for me first?"
The other party was obviously stunned for a moment: "After all, you guys drink first, I'm just a waiter."
[No, whose waiter would wear such revealing clothes?]
"This is our request as a guest. Can't you even do such a small request? The concentration of this wine is not very high, and the glass is so small. Can't you just take a sip?"
Mo Keyu pretended to be angry, and her tone became aggressive.
"I..." The unknown beautiful waitress was obviously stunned and made a ridiculous excuse, "I, I don't drink."
Mo Keyu couldn't help laughing out loud: "No, you said at the beginning that I was best at accompanying people to drink, why can't I drink now?"
Shen Mingli looked at her expressionlessly. It was obvious that the other party's despicable acting skills had already exposed her predicament.
"Aha, aha, I'm just kidding. I'll drink, I'll drink." She said, and directly took the cup and poured it into her mouth in one gulp. Her brows wrinkled as she drank, as if she was drinking some poison.
"It's your turn now, ahaha." She said, passing the glasses of wine on the table to Mo Keyu. Mo Keyu took the glass, turned it around and put it aside, saying:
"I'll finish the shrimp first."
The other party was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that he was tricked.
[This beauty is really brave enough to drink. She really does not hesitate to do anything to achieve her goal.]
[So her original plan was to get the eldest son of the Shen family to drink an aphrodisiac, and then climb up to stir up a scandal. On the one hand, she could take the opportunity to make a fortune, and on the other hand, she could destroy the reputation of the Shen family and suppress the Shen family's industry. And this invitation was initiated by me, so naturally I have nothing to do with it.]
[Are the bad guys so rampant now? The person hiding behind them... is really scary to think about.]
[No, Gu's personal life is a mess, and he still has the nerve to use this matter to mess with others. Worry more about yourself.]
The other party wanted to do something, but the medicine she used was very strong, enough to make an eighty-year-old go mad, and it had already had an effect on her.
Her face turned pale, her body began to become unsteady, and her whole body became hot.
"Yes...yes..." the other person murmured.
"Medicine?"
Does this count as admitting it yourself?
"I want it...I want it so badly..."
Mo Keyu looked at her and was about to ask her what she wanted, but unexpectedly the other party rushed towards her and slapped her on the face.
[Fuck!]
The next second, the beautiful woman who pounced on her like a wolf or a tiger was picked up by Shen Mingli.
Mo Keyu covered her face and widened her eyes. This, this, this...isn't it that there is no distinction between men and women?
"Ms. Mo, are you okay?" Shen Mingli said, clutching the back of her collar with his right hand. The other party couldn't break free and could only twist around in place, making strange noises.
Mo Keyu wiped the flaming red lips from her face sadly: "Not bad, luckily you acted in time."
Shen Mingli was tall, and even though he was wearing a suit jacket, one could still feel his distinct muscles, and he controlled the opponent with just one hand.
[No one has ever kissed my face before!]
[Aaaaaah, if this had been even a little bit worse, I would have lost my first kiss.]
A cold look flashed in Shen Mingli's eyes, and he grabbed the back collar of the other person's clothes tighter, with a cold look flashing in his eyes.
Just then, several people rushed in from outside.
"Mr. Shen, we are here!"
Those people quickly walked to Shen Mingli, and as soon as Shen Mingli let go, those people grabbed him and dragged him to a safe distance.
"You're too slow," he said, patting his coat.
"S-Sorry, Mr. Shen."
One of the leaders hurriedly apologized, "The police are here, Mr. Shen."
Shen Mingli threw the wine poured by the waiter on the table and said, "There is something wrong with the wine here. I will leave it to you to deal with it from now on."
"Okay, okay, Mr. Shen."
These newcomers were like an experienced team, with clear division of labor in carrying out the cleanup and evidence collection work.
Mo Keyu stood aside, and it seemed as if she had nothing to do with it.
[But how did they know this?]
[No, Shen Mingli already knew about it, right? Come to think of it, when we were having dinner just now, he just ate and didn’t touch the drinks on the table.]
[Could it be that this was all part of their plan? But how did the fact that I invited the other party get leaked?]
A series of thoughts came to Mo Keyu's mind, and she didn't realize that there was a burning gaze looking at her.
[Since all of this is within the other party's expectations, does it mean that it doesn't matter if I do nothing? I am just wasting my time?]
When Mo Keyu thought of this, he felt a little disappointed.
Shen Mingli, who had been silent, spoke up:
"Ms. Mo, thank you so much for what you did just now."
Mo Keyu raised his head and met the other person's deep eyes.
"No, nothing. To be honest, if I hadn't invited you here, this wouldn't have happened."
Mo Keyu felt apologetic. After all, she represented the Shen family, and if anything happened, she would bear a lot of responsibility.
"Ms. Mo, I'm glad you treated me to this meal," he said, his voice was pleasant and his tone became much softer. "When I accepted your invitation, I asked my assistant to record my itinerary. Maybe next time I should write it down separately."
"oh oh."
In fact, he didn't have to explain, but after hearing the last sentence, he felt much better.
“I will definitely record my next trip myself,” he said. “Only we will know.”
The last sentence is full of magnetism, like a mellow wine that makes people slightly drunk.
"good……"
Mo Keyu listened to this and felt very agitated. His brain was so hot that he couldn't even think about anything. All he could think of was Shen Mingli's beautiful eyes and pleasant voice.
"That..."
Mo Keyu's mind was full of bubbles, and he became bolder.
"Well, Shen Mingli, you can just call me by my name."
After saying that, Mo Keyu suddenly woke up as if a bucket of cold water was poured on him. They weren't that close after all.
Generally in the business world, people address people by honorific titles, such as chairman, or by their surname plus their job title. It would be impolite to just call them by their name.
"Okay." He said, just one word, simple and capable.
