Chapter 45 Lower the temperature
After Chen Zhi and Zhou Tinghuai toasted here, they went to other tables.
Her best friend can drink a lot. She once drank several bottles of high-proof liquor and even fought off six hooligans alone. Jiang Yu is not worried that she will get drunk.
What's more, she saw Zhou Tinghuai quietly took the wine jug that the two of them used to toast and replaced the wine with water.
You won’t get drunk just by drinking water.
This was the first time that Jiang Yu had eaten such a simple banquet. The dishes on the table were not presented in a particular way or paired with each other, but they were very fresh.
The chef was a master chef specially hired to prepare banquets. Jiang Yu didn't think the dishes he made were good, but they weren't bad either.
But as soon as the dishes were served, everyone started to grab the dishes with shining eyes, without even bothering to talk. The dishes must be very good.
There were only two of them at Jiang Yu's table, and the bodyguards were assigned to other tables.
They didn't have to fight for the food, and Zhou Xiao really maintained his role as the dining companion.
Seeing that she had picked up more fish with her chopsticks, he carefully removed the fish bones and placed the fish in front of her. Then he picked up the dishes that Jiang Yu could not reach and served the soup.
To Jiang Yu, Zhou Xiao's life was cold, hard and solemn, giving off the feeling of an extraordinary husband.
As she was sighing, the village chief and the party secretary came over to toast her, expressing their gratitude to Jiang Yu for building a factory in the village.
This is a long-lasting good thing for their Xiaohe Village, and no words of gratitude are too much for them.
Zhou Xiao also poured Arctic Ocean into the cup. Jiang Yu took a sip and put down the cup.
In the eyes of the two village heads, the boss was polite enough to greet them with a smile, so there was no reason for them to be dissatisfied.
After a few more words of thanks, the village chief finally said.
"The road construction is also a matter for our entire village. I have discussed it with everyone. Every household will contribute people to the road construction and cooperate with the leaders to complete the road as soon as possible so as not to delay the construction of the factory."
Jiang Yu nodded and drew a pie for them.
"The people in Xiaohe Village are very nice. Once the factory is built, maybe in two years the village will be filled with brick and tile houses and bungalows."
The village head and the village party secretary were delighted to hear this. Everyone attached so much importance to building factories and roads, wasn't it just because they wanted to live a better life?
The two went back with their hearts still burning with enthusiasm, and were even more determined to mobilize the villagers so that everyone would be more cooperative and proactive and not let Jiang Yu's good intentions of building the factory down.
The dinner table returned to silence. Jiang Yu lowered her eyes to glance at the wine jug hidden under the table and suddenly felt like drinking.
Is this rebellion, perhaps? The more Zhou Xiao tried to hide, the more she wanted to drink.
While Jiang Yu was thinking about how to act less childish by drinking secretly, Zhou Tinghuai came to find Zhou Xiao.
Maybe he was in a hurry, so he just pushed the person away in the wheelchair.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jiang Yu took out the wine jug and poured herself a glass of wine.
She picked it up and sniffed it. The smell of alcohol was a bit strong, but nothing special. It was nowhere near as pretty as a cocktail. Jiang Yu lost interest and drank the glass of wine without much care.
The smell of alcohol spread between her lips and tongue. The slightly rough taste made Jiang Yu frown. By the time she reacted, her consciousness began to sink.
But Jiang Yu had been brought up by her family for many years. Even when she was drunk, apart from a slight blush on her face, she still sat properly and her eyes were not wandering. If you didn't look carefully, you would think she was not drunk.
When Zhou Xiao came back after helping his troublesome brother deal with the matter, he saw Jiang Yu still sitting there, her eyes clear as if filled with a layer of mist.
That little face, as beautiful as a lotus, was now covered with a thin layer of powder, and the lips were brightly colored, the same as usual yet different.
Zhou Xiao frowned and almost immediately realized something was wrong.
He moved his wheelchair over and his fingers were held by a pair of delicate and slender hands.
"You told me to show it to me." Jiang Yu leaned closer and spoke in a low voice with bright eyes.
Even when my consciousness was blurred, I still remembered that this matter should not be made public.
Otherwise, what if someone else sees it? Zhou Xiao can only be hers, so she won’t show him to others.
Zhou Xiao's eyebrows twitched. He didn't know if it was because Jiang Yu's hand was too hot or his body temperature was too high, but he felt very hot all over.
He was close to Jiang Yu at this time, and could smell the alcohol in her breath when she spoke.
Realizing that Jiang Yu had drunk some wine and was probably drunk, Zhou Xiao regained his senses, looked at the white wine pot, and made sure that Jiang Yu didn't drink too much, so he put his mind at ease.
But looking at Jiang Yu at this moment, she looked less arrogant and more obedient. She didn't look drunk, but looked like someone had given her a piece of candy and was coaxed away.
There are many people at the banquet, so Jiang Yu should go back to her room to rest now.
Zhou Xiao looked down at his fingers held by the fair hand, then looked at Jiang Yu who was glaring at him because her request was not met, and spoke softly as if to coax her.
"I'll show you when I get back to the room."
For no reason, Zhou Xiao's ears turned red when he said this.
Drunk Jiang Yu was still cautious and did not agree immediately.
After making sure that the environment was harmless, the bodyguards were available at any time, and Zhou Xiao was also her boyfriend, Jiang Yu finally relaxed and followed Zhou Xiao back to the room.
Once the door was closed, most of the sound was blocked out. Jiang Yu sat on the bed, looking at Zhou Xiao with burning eyes, waiting for the man to fulfill his promise.
But there were so many people outside, and Jiang Yu was still drunk, so now was not the time to look at that.
"I'm going to make some sobering soup. You stay in the room and don't go out, okay?" Zhou Xiao negotiated with the beautiful drunk in front of him.
Jiang Yu unhappily refused to discuss the matter, reached out, pulled the man in the wheelchair over, and grabbed the man's shirt to ask him to come closer.
Their faces were so close that their breaths seemed to blend together.
Jiang Yu glanced at Zhou Xiao's tightly buttoned shirt and felt that such a thing should not be done by her delicate hands.
She fiddled with the buttons twice, then touched her protruding Adam's apple playfully, and finally placed her hand on Zhou Xiao's jaw.
The voice was commanding and delicate, and also seemed to be teasing people unconsciously.
"You want to show it to me, why don't you untie it?"
Zhou Xiao's dark eyes fell on Jiang Yu's face. Her snow-white skin and red lips made her stunningly beautiful.
After looking for a while, when Jiang Yu snorted in dissatisfaction, Zhou Xiao raised his hand with red ears and unbuttoned a few buttons on his shirt.
Jiang Yu was satisfied when her hands touched the other person's skin. She poked and touched, not caring at all about the other person's heavy breathing.
"It's too hot, turn down the temperature."
Jiang Yu, who was not in her right mind, was not happy about her hands being burned and could not stand the slightest bit of grievance from the spoiled orders.
Zhou Xiao held her wrist, rubbed it with his fingertips, and his voice was hoarse.
"Probably not."
None of them could adjust the temperature. Jiang Yu glanced at Zhou Xiao, thought to herself that it didn't work, and then she broke free from his hand, not wanting to touch anyone again.
Zhou Xiao thought that Jiang Yu was unhappy because of his words and was considering whether to fan herself to lower her body temperature, so he was about to comfort her.
Jiang Yu frowned, took off her leather shoes, touched her heels, and then hissed softly.
Zhou Xiao looked over and saw that the fair skin was rubbed red in a small area, which looked like it was about to break. It was extremely horrifying on the overly white skin.
He paused for a moment, and reflexively, carefully lifted Jiang Yu's feet, held them and looked at the red skin, then touched them carefully with heartache.
