Gu Baiwei looked up and saw Su Peipei standing not far behind her, arm in arm with Shen Mingtang, smiling.
As they were talking, Su Peipei had already sat down next to her quite naturally.
Shen Mingtang sat down immediately after her, not giving her any chance to refuse.
Gu Baiwei frowned. Although she didn't like being with these two, they had already sat down, so she couldn't very well ask them to get up.
Soon, everyone in the crew arrived. After introducing themselves, they began toasting and exchanging pleasantries.
Su Peipei picked up a glass of wine and smiled at Gu Baiwei: "Miss Gu, would you do me the honor of having a drink?"
Gu Baiwei couldn't hold her liquor well and instinctively wanted to refuse, but before she could even open her mouth, a slender and beautiful hand reached out from the side.
“Weiwei can’t hold her liquor, I’ll take her place.”
After Shen Xuan finished speaking, he tilted his head back and drank the wine in his glass in one gulp, then looked at Su Peipei with a smile: "Miss Su, it's your turn."
Su Peipei originally planned to take the opportunity to get Gu Baiwei drunk and then find a chance to take her away, but unexpectedly Shen Xuan appeared out of nowhere.
She bit her lower lip reluctantly, picked up the wine glass on the table, and drank it all in one gulp.
It's okay, she has other plans anyway.
Shen Xuan's peach blossom eyes glistened with tears as he smiled at everyone present: "Who else wants to drink with my girlfriend? I'll keep them company to the end."
The moment those words were spoken, the entire room fell silent.
Director Chen coughed twice and patted Shen Xuan on the shoulder: "You're too protective of your own, you brat."
The quiet, tense atmosphere was easily dispelled by this one sentence, and the atmosphere at the table became lively again.
At this moment, Su Peipei accidentally knocked Gu Baiwei's chopsticks to the ground.
She apologized repeatedly and hurriedly took a new pair from the side and handed them to her: "Miss Gu, I'm so sorry, please use these."
Seeing that the chopsticks were still unopened, Gu Baiwei accepted them without hesitation, unaware of the fleeting malicious smile on Su Peipei's lips.
Perhaps it was because there were too many people in the private room, but after sitting for a while, Gu Baiwei felt hot all over and her head was a little dizzy.
Sitting next to her, Su Peipei was the first to notice her unusual expression and asked with concern, "Miss Gu, your face is so red, are you alright?"
She spoke words of concern, but her eyes gleamed with excitement and malice.
Great, the medicine is working.
If she can get this bitch to the agreed-upon room again, and then expose her to the media, she can not only get 500,000 yuan, but also completely ruin this woman's reputation.
Su Peipei thought excitedly, but Gu Baiwei's consciousness was becoming increasingly unclear.
She pretended to stand up and deliberately said loudly, "Miss Gu, let me help you go outside for some fresh air."
"What are you doing? Let her go."
One hand was placed on Su Peipei's wrist, which was gripping Gu Baiwei's arm, with tremendous force.
Su Peipei struggled but couldn't break free, so she could only smile and explain, "Mr. Shen, what are you doing? I just wanted to accompany Miss Gu out for some fresh air; she looks very uncomfortable."
She wore a smile, but her eyes betrayed her guilt and anxiety.
"No need to trouble yourself, I'll take care of my girlfriend myself."
Shen Xuan increased the force of his grip, ruthlessly prying Su Peipei's hands apart.
Seeing that the duck that was about to be caught was about to fly away, Shen Mingtang stood up from his seat with a smile: "Mr. Shen, these girls are chatting together, let's not get involved. Come on, let me toast you. We're from the same clan, after all."
He tried to get closer to her, but Shen Xuan didn't even glance at him. He roughly pried Su Peipei's hands off, pulled Gu Baiwei into his arms, and his possessiveness was palpable.
Feeling the burning heat in his arms, his deep, icy eyes swept coldly over Su Peipei and Shen Mingtang: "Get out."
Shen Mingtang had inquired beforehand and found out that Shen Xuan was not Gu Baiwei's boyfriend at all.
Seeing his reaction, he dared not press the matter further and could only smile awkwardly, "Mr. Shen, you misunderstand. We meant no harm."
Shen Xuan expressionlessly scooped Gu Baiwei up in his arms and walked away with a cold face.
Su Peipei instinctively wanted to stop him, but when she met his icy gaze, she felt a chill run down her spine and dared not take another step forward.
Shen Mingtang watched helplessly as the woman he was about to have was taken away by Shen Xuan. He couldn't help but curse inwardly: So what if she's an illegitimate child? What's so great about her?
Gu Baiwei realized she was being held in someone's arms. She looked up groggily and called out in confusion, "Yan Qing, what are you doing here?"
Clearly, she had mistaken someone for someone else.
Shen Xuan pursed his lips and remained silent, then opened the car door and laid the person flat on the back seat: "Sister, I'll take you to the hospital."
As soon as he finished speaking, two smooth arms wrapped around his neck. Shen Xuan stiffened slightly, but did not stop them.
Gu Baiwei felt hot all over, with only a slight coolness on her arm. She couldn't help but press her whole body against it: "Yan Qing, I'm so hot."
She pouted and acted coquettishly, her bright red lips resembling a rosebud soaked in moisture.
Shen Xuan's gaze was uncontrollably drawn to those full lips. His Adam's apple bobbed, and an inexplicable longing rose in his heart, like a fish about to drown suddenly seeing water.
A dark thought uncontrollably popped into my mind.
He had never liked a woman this much before, and this was his only chance to take her away.
But he was also very afraid, afraid that when she came to her senses, she would resent and hate him.
But he wanted her so badly that, almost uncontrollably, he slowly lowered his head and leaned closer, his mind screaming, "She's mine, she's mine!"
Just as their lips were about to touch, a large, veiny hand grabbed his collar and punched him: "Get lost!"
Shen Yanqing happened to be at the same hotel for business that night, and when she inadvertently saw Shen Xuan helping Gu Baiwei out, she immediately followed him.
As soon as he arrived, he witnessed a scene that horrified him.
"Just like your mother, you're a despicable piece of trash!"
Shen Yanqing draped his coat over Gu Baiwei, lifted her off the back seat, and looked down at Shen Xuan on the ground with a gaze as if he were looking at something dirty.
"Ha, how do you know my sister and I aren't mutually in love?"
"Mutual affection? You lowly bastard, you think you're worthy?"
Shen Yanqing turned and left with the person in his arms: "Big Head, teach the Second Young Master what propriety, righteousness, integrity, and shame are."
He strode over and carried her into the car. As soon as he sat down, two soft little hands, still burning hot, began to grope him restlessly: "Yan Qing, I'm so hot, help me."
The soft, boneless touch and the extremely charming voice almost caused Shen Yanqing's supposedly strong willpower to collapse instantly.
He gripped the woman's restless little hand, his voice tinged with restraint: "Weiwei, be good, just hang in there a little longer."
"Yan Qing, hold me, I feel so uncomfortable."
However, Gu Baiwei, who was in a daze, couldn't hear what he was saying at all, and struggled desperately to get closer to a place that made her feel comfortable.
