Chapter 22: Strange! A scumbag still has male virtue?
Zhang Xi's eyes wandered between Xu Shaoyu and Yan Ruo for a moment, and finally landed on Yan Ruo. He slowly spoke:
"I really don't have much to discuss with Mr. Xu! However, I do have a cooperation with Secretary Yan that we can discuss!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Ruo felt a cold gaze falling on her, and her scalp felt cold.
This damn Zhang Xi, is he deliberately trying to sow discord here?
He chuckled dryly twice.
"I'm just a small secretary at the Xu Group. Young Master Zhang hasn't even cooperated with the Xu Group, so how could he possibly discuss any cooperation with a small figure like me?"
"If Secretary Yan says there's no such thing, then there's no such thing!"
Zhang Xi snorted and laughed, with a helpless look on his face, as if telling everyone that they had indeed talked about something. However, if Yan Ruo refused to admit it, there was nothing he could do.
Yan Ruo was so angry that she almost laughed, if it weren't for the fact that he was the eldest son of the Zhang family and could not be offended.
I really want him to drink a few more glasses of wine to sober up!
Xu Shaoyu looked at Yan Ruo, a hint of deep thought flashing in his eyes. His voice was so cold that it was a bit chilly.
"Since Mr. Zhang is fine, we'll leave first!" After saying that, he turned around and left.
Yan Ruo followed closely as if it was a conditioned reflex.
But she drank two glasses of wine too quickly and felt dizzy. She wanted to reach out and hold on to the table beside her to take over.
His vision was doubled, and his hand was grasping nothing. It was about to make close contact with the floor.
When you are unlucky, even drinking cold water will get your teeth stuck!
Fortunately, I will leave in about twenty days, and I won’t have to deal with these traps that can reveal three hidden dangers in one sentence anymore.
Luckily, the banquet hall was covered with thick carpet. Even if I fell, it wouldn't hurt, though it would be a bit embarrassing!
I thought so much in my mind, but it only took a moment.
In the eyes of Xu Shaoyu and Zhang Xi, the person who was originally standing steadily just took a step forward.
Somehow, the whole person fell diagonally forward.
One hand was frantically catching something in the air, but no one knew what it was catching.
Yan Ruo, who had already prepared herself to make a fool of herself, felt a tightness around her waist and was unexpectedly supported by someone.
She turned her head and saw Xu Shaoyu.
She always knew that Xu Shaoyu was handsome.
Unexpectedly, from this deadly angle, the jaw line is more sharp and distinct, coupled with the high nose bridge and deep eyes.
The whole face is incredibly beautiful.
No wonder so many women like him even though he has such a bad personality, and there are often rich young ladies chasing after him!
If she was sober, Yan Ruo would never dare to lie in Xu Shaoyu's arms and stare blankly in public with peace of mind.
But under the influence of alcohol, her brain completely shut down and she was completely unable to react.
Seeing that her eyes were blank, unlike her usual self, she acted businesslike, polite and distant as soon as she got outside.
Xu Shaoyu helped her stand up.
With his eyes narrowed and his brows relaxed, he asked in a low voice, "Are you drunk?"
Yan Ruo rubbed her eyes, feeling a little confused. "A little, a little dizzy!"
"Then let's go back first!" Xu Shaoyu pursed his lips, and a hint of unintentional smile flashed across his usually cold face.
I watched them fighting in front of me.
Finally, Xu Shaoyu held Yan Ruo's arm and left the banquet hall. No one looked at him, let alone said hello.
Zhang Xi silently retracted his outstretched hand, touched his cheek with the tip of his tongue, and couldn't help but let out a "tsk" sound.
Yan Ruo was not actually drunk and unconscious, but his brain was like rusty and was working a little slowly.
Xu Shaoyu pulled her out, and she didn't make any noise and followed him obediently.
Along the way, people wanted to come forward and say hello, but Xu Shaoyu ignored them until he met Yun Zhinian.
As the eldest daughter of the Yun family and the next successor of the Yun Group, she is of course indispensable to such occasions.
It's just that she seemed to come a little late today, so I didn't meet her before.
When she saw Xu Shaoyu, her eyes lit up.
"Mr. Xu, I just arrived and you're leaving?"
Xu Shaoyu stopped, his expression much more relaxed than before. "Something urgent happened at the company!"
Yun Zhinian's gaze paused for a moment on his hand that was supporting Yan Ruo, and he looked at Yan Ruo who was not in the right state, and asked hesitantly.
"Secretary Yan, is he drunk?"
Xu Shaoyu pursed his thin lips into a straight line, and his face turned a little colder when he thought of Zhang Xi who deliberately forced Yan Ruo to drink.
"I ran into a business partner, and Secretary Yan helped me have two more drinks!"
"Mr. Xu, this won't do!" Yun Zhinian said jokingly, "How can you let a lady block your drinking?"
From the very beginning, Yan Ruo felt as if his head was stuffed with cotton.
I felt numb, as if I was thinking about a lot of things, but also as if I was thinking about nothing, just a blank. The sounds from the outside world were just a buzzing sound in my ears, and I couldn't make out what was being said.
When I was a little more awake, I heard these words.
When she saw Yun Zhinian's half-smile, and felt Xu Shaoyu holding her arm tightly, her heart skipped a beat.
"Miss Yun!" She quickly broke free from his hand and spoke with a guilty conscience.
"Miss Yun, you're joking. As a secretary, it's my duty to help the boss block the drinking!"
"Really?" Yun Zhinian continued to smile and was about to say something else, but was interrupted by Xu Shaoyu.
"Minister Yang is here. Miss Yun, please go in quickly! I have something else to do at the company, so I'll be leaving first! Please tell Minister Yang about the project in detail, Miss Yun."
After saying that, he turned around and left without paying any more attention to Yan Ruo.
Yan Ruo looked at his back as he walked away quickly. Although her mind was not very clear, she immediately thought of the word "avoid suspicion"!
Keep your distance from other women in front of your future fiancée.
I didn't expect that a scumbag could still have such moral integrity? How bizarre!
"Miss Yun, goodbye!" She greeted him, her steps a little unsteady, but at least she didn't fall again. She followed him slowly.
When they arrived at the door, fortunately Xiao Zhang was standing outside the car waiting, otherwise, in Yan Ruo's current state, she would probably be lost among the many luxury cars.
Xu Shaoyu was already sitting steadily in the back seat, looking at documents on a tablet in his hand.
His facial features are delicate and stern, revealing a sense of indifference and alienation.
She got into the car silently. Although the heater was on, Yan Ruo felt chilly for some reason.
Along the way, the air pressure in the car continued to be low.
After driving the car into Xingwu, Xiao Zhang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
I really envy Secretary Yan, who was drunk and confused the whole way but was not affected at all.
He took a deep breath and carefully observed the source of the low pressure through the rearview mirror. Seeing that Xu Shaoyu looked calm, he spoke cautiously.
"Mr. Xu, we're here!"
Xu Shaoyu finally put away the tablet and looked at Yan Ruo who was sitting there motionless, his voice cold.
"Don't get off yet! Are you planning to spend the night in the car?"
"Oh!" After a long while, Yan Ruo realized that he was talking to her.
But as soon as she opened the car door, she found something wrong.
This was not the small apartment in Zitai Mansion where she had lived recently, but Xingwu where she had lived with Xu Shaoyu for two years.
Somehow, Yun Zhinian's half-smile flashed before his eyes. Yan Ruo immediately withdrew her foot from the car.
"I want to go back to my own home! Xiao Zhang, could you please take me back to Zitai Mansion?"
Xiao Zhang, who had originally breathed a sigh of relief, breathed a sigh of relief again.
Looking at Xu Shaoyu, who had already gotten off the car and was waiting with a gloomy face, he laughed and said softly.
"Secretary Yan, don't you live here all the time? Get out of the car quickly. Mr. Xu has been waiting outside for quite some time."
Unexpectedly, Yan Ruo, who is usually gentle and easy to talk to, is so incoherent after getting drunk.
Xiao Zhang's lips were all worn out, but she just refused to get off the bus!
