"I told you to let go!" Cheng Yuesheng said sternly, but she had always been sick and weak, and she was still not well. Even when she was angry and frowned, she looked frail, delicate and charming.
So her anger is not scary at all in the eyes of others, and she is even more charming in the eyes of a playboy like Jiang Fuwen.
"Cheng Yuesheng." At this time, a cold male voice came: "What are you doing?"
Cheng Yuesheng turned his head and saw Qin Heque. He was wearing a custom-made suit. The lights from the cocktail party poured out from behind him, highlighting his broad shoulders and narrow waist. He seemed to be standing in the light. There were clearly several people around him, but it seemed as if only he could be seen.
"Cheng Yuesheng." Qin Heque took a few steps with his long legs and walked up to Cheng Yuesheng. He passed by the terrace and heard a familiar voice. He didn't expect it was Cheng Yuesheng, whom he had met several times in the hospital before, and she seemed to be in trouble. He stopped her without thinking.
"What happened?" Qin Heque asked in a cold tone. His expressionless face was even more imposing than Cheng Yuesheng's when he was angry. "Are they looking for trouble with you?"
After saying that, he immediately grabbed the hand that Jiang Fuwen was holding Cheng Yuesheng's wrist, and squeezed it hard.
"Ah--" Jiang Fuwen felt pain and immediately let go of Cheng Yuesheng's wrist.
Cheng Yuesheng immediately withdrew his hand and rubbed the place where Jiang Fuwen had just held it, as if it had been touched by something dirty.
"I'm sorry, I didn't cause her any trouble..." Jiang Fuwen said in pain, "I just... I just invited her to have a glass of wine..."
Hearing this, Qin Heque continued to push harder. Cheng Yuesheng had just been discharged from the hospital today, and someone was forcing her to drink. If she hadn't happened to encounter it, she would have been surrounded by several people and wouldn't be allowed to leave. She would probably have been forced to drink that glass of wine.
"Ah—I'm sorry, it's my fault! It's my fault!" Jiang Fuwen was in so much pain that he could only apologize and admit his fault: "I shouldn't have forced my sister to drink..."
"Who is your sister? Don't call me sister!" Cheng Yuesheng said angrily with a stern face.
She didn't want to have anything to do with this greasy guy. It was really disgusting and infuriating to hear him call her sister.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Jiang Fuwen continued to apologize, "You are not my sister. Um, sir, I apologize. Can you please let go of my hand..." He looked at Yuan Linlin and Li Yuntong for help, but the two of them seemed not to see his call for help, and huddled aside like two quails in the wind and rain.
Qin Heque looked at Cheng Yuesheng and saw that she still had a tense face. When she heard this frivolous man calling her sister, she was like a cat with its fur standing on end, ready to pounce and bite at any time.
Of course Qin Heque wouldn't let her bite anyone.
"Apologize to Miss Cheng." Qin Heque continued to hold Jiang Fuwen's hand tightly, his eyes grim and his tone revealed danger.
"Yes... yes," Jiang Fuwen agreed readily and pleaded, "I'm sorry, Miss Cheng, I offended you. Please forgive me."
Cheng Yuesheng watched Jiang Fuwen grimace in pain, and she breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't want to continue to entangle with him, so she tugged at Qin Heque's clothes and said, "Let him go."
She was very glad that Qin Heque helped her, but this was a public place with people coming and going, and it was not a good idea to stay deadlocked here. Moreover, Qin Heque's companions were waiting for him, and one of them kept looking at them with a strange look. She didn't want Qin Heque's friends to have any strange misunderstandings about them.
Qin Heque let go of his hand and ignored Jiang Fuwen and the others. Seeing this, they hurriedly left the terrace.
When leaving, Yuan Linlin suddenly turned her head and looked seriously at the people who came to help Cheng Yuesheng.
She opened her mouth to say something, but nothing came out as she followed the other two off the terrace.
"Why are you here? Didn't you just get discharged from the hospital?" He was just discharged from the hospital today and came to the cocktail party in the evening.
Qin Heque looked at Cheng Yuesheng's thin body and felt that she really didn't take care of herself at all.
"I'm not sure. My family brought me here." Cheng Yuesheng shook his head.
She was not particularly clear about the actual intention of her adoptive parents in insisting on taking her out of the hospital and bringing her to the cocktail party. Cheng's mother took her to meet some wealthy ladies in Jiangzhou, and she could vaguely guess some of her intentions, but she always felt that the plans of her adoptive parents were not that simple, and it was not easy for her to explain this matter too clearly to Qin Heque, whom she had only met a few times.
Qin Heque remembered the conversation he heard between her and her family in the hospital. They asked to take her out of the hospital even though the doctor did not agree. He thought it was a bit strange at the time, but he did not expect that it was to bring her to the cocktail party.
"Brother Que, who is this? Why don't you introduce him to us?" Qin Heque's companions watched the farce end and teased the two of them.
Cheng Yuesheng looked at the elite men in suits and ties and shut up.
They seemed to be about the same age as Qin Heque, but Cheng Yuesheng thought they were weird, so she decided not to say anything.
"Cheng Yuesheng is my grandfather's fellow patient." Qin Heque introduced Cheng Yuesheng's identity in a casual manner.
Cheng Yuesheng was a little surprised that in Qin Heque's eyes, he was just Grandpa Qin's fellow patient.
She smiled and greeted them: "Hello, my name is Cheng Yuesheng."
"So you're Grandpa Qin's fellow patient~" One of Qin Heque's companions smiled mysteriously, as if something had suddenly occurred to him. "Hello, we're good friends of Brother Que. My name is Song Yubai."
Song Yubai looked different from the other business-style men in suits at the party. He had fashionable silver hair and wore a blue suit with a strong sense of design. It could be seen that he was a very lively young man.
"Hello, my name is Qi Boyan." Qi Boyan looked the oldest among them and looked very calm.
"Wen Xiao, hello, Miss Cheng." Wen Xiao looked gentle and refined, and was the most gentle among them.
These people don't seem to appear in the novel, but Cheng Yuesheng's understanding of this world only comes from the adapted TV clips she has seen and some complaints about the drama from her colleagues. She only has a fragmented understanding of this world, so she is not very sure.
Cheng Yuesheng listened to their self-introductions and looked at Song Yubai's smile. She always felt that there was something else behind his words, but she didn't know if it was her illusion.
However, she felt that it would be better for her to leave first and not disturb Qin Heque and his companions.
