Chapter 204 Extra: Zhou Chong's Circle of Friends
Shan Qingshan slept soundly through the night, and Zhou Chong woke up briefly once when he got up.
The surroundings were a bit unfamiliar. It took him a while to realize that he was in Zhou Chong's house, in his room, when Zhou Chong turned around and kissed him on the forehead.
He stared blankly for a while, and it seemed like he could still smell the cream cake on the tip of his nose.
He glanced down at it.
He was clean.
Have all the guests arrived?
"Someone's coming."
Long queues have formed outside the villas, and luxury cars that are rarely seen are now everywhere.
Zhou Chong: "My room is well soundproofed, it won't disturb you, you can continue sleeping."
"I……"
Shanqing Mountain is about to rise.
Zhou Chong held him down, preventing him from getting up.
"Go to sleep, it's fine. There are many people, you don't need to go out."
Zhou Chong's birthday banquet, ostensibly a celebration of the eldest son's birthday, was actually a stage for fame and fortune.
Bright lights and bustling activity, with toasts and laughter filling the air.
It's pointless; let him rest instead.
Zhou Chong coaxed Shan Qingshan to sleep before going downstairs.
Those who could enter the Zhou family's inner area to attend the banquet were all people who had a relationship with the Zhou family and had business dealings with them.
The guests who arrived earlier downstairs were already chatting with wine glasses in hand.
Even as they chatted with the person in front of them, they kept searching for Zhou Chong's figure out of the corner of their eyes.
It's obvious to everyone that Jay Chou is transferring his power to his eldest son.
In addition, Zhou Chong recently exceeded the project quota set by Chairman Zhou, signed a huge order worth hundreds of millions, and reorganized Mr. Yu's company.
Every single thing has been widely known for a long time.
So young, so full of vigor, his future influence and status are extraordinary.
Therefore, ever since Zhou Chong appeared, he has been constantly approached by people who wanted to chat with him.
Zhou Chong held his wine glass, relaxed and carefree, seemingly at ease.
No matter what the other person says, he can politely distance himself and casually deflect the question if he doesn't want to. Sometimes, even a subtle change in his gaze can silence others, making them afraid to continue, and the atmosphere can become completely cold.
His demeanor and presence left many people speechless.
The student surpasses the teacher.
However, he was missing someone by his side.
It didn't appear from morning till night.
I watched as one glass of wine after another was drunk.
I didn't see Shan Qingshan either.
The things said behind their backs weren't so nice.
"He didn't even show up for the birthday party. Is it just that Young Master Zhou is putting in all this effort on one side?"
"Did you two have a fight?"
"Did Shan Qingshan really propose to him? Are they really going to get married?"
"It's hard to say. I have Zhou Shao and Shan Qingshan as WeChat friends. Zhou Shao posts so many things related to Shan Qingshan on his Moments, but I've never seen Shan Qingshan like them."
The words had barely left his mouth.
A tall, slender figure walked past me, upright and with an outstanding temperament, like a gentle mist or a bright moon.
As I walked over, I gave them a cold glance.
Those who were speaking felt a momentary sense of suffocation.
Her cheeks were slightly flushed, and her heart was beating a little faster.
Shan Qingshan withdrew his gaze and walked towards Zhou Chong.
Zhou Chong seemed like a completely different person. His eyes lit up with an undisguised genuine smile, and even his steps became unsteady. He stepped forward, put his arm around Shan Qingshan's waist, and gently pulled him into his embrace.
Such actions are fine at class reunions or private occasions, but they are not appropriate today.
Being too intimate makes Zhou Chong, the young master, seem too sentimental.
Zhou Chong, seemingly unaware, calmly leaned close to Shan Qingshan's ear.
"You're up already?"
"Um."
Are you still feeling unwell?
"I don't feel bad anymore."
"Then help me up, I'm drunk."
"Um."
Zhou Chong asked a waiter to bring Shan Qingshan a glass of juice.
The two of them together looked like newlyweds toasting each other.
A man approached, and Zhou Chong said, "Yes, he's my fiancé, we're getting engaged soon."
When someone came, Zhou Chong said, "He's not only handsome, but also capable. I've naturally chosen someone excellent."
When cutting the cake, Zhou Chong also asked Shan Qingshan to join him.
It looked just like a wedding ceremony where the newlyweds were cutting the cake.
After finishing cutting it, he added that it wasn't as delicious as the one Qingshan Xiaobao made himself.
When Shan Qingshan thought about how this person had devoured the cake yesterday, her ears turned red, and she couldn't help but glare at him.
Zhou Chong leaned in and whispered, "Honey, you wouldn't hold a grudge against a drunkard, would you?"
Shan Qingshan didn't say anything, but asked the butler to bring Zhou Chong a glass of warm milk to soothe his stomach.
You Liang quietly slipped up to Shan Qingshan.
"Sister-in-law, my brother is faking being drunk; it's a paid arrangement."
The alcohol content at these gatherings is usually not very high.
A few drinks were nothing to Zhou Chong.
He was clearly taking advantage of his drunkenness to act like a hooligan.
Shan Qingshan said calmly, "I know."
You Liang choked.
I choked on the dog food.
"By the way, can I borrow your phone for a moment?"
You Liang asked, "What's wrong?" while obediently handing over his phone.
Shan Qingshan clicked on Zhou Chong's profile picture.
You Liang was startled and lowered his voice, acting like a thief.
"Sister-in-law, are you checking up on him? Don't worry, I'm on your side. If my brother has any other thoughts, I'll definitely tell you."
"no."
He was somewhat concerned about what those people had just said about WeChat Moments.
Shan Qingshan clicked into Zhou Chong's WeChat Moments.
He casually scrolled through the posts and found more than a dozen WeChat Moments that he had never seen before.
[A birthday cake made by Qingshan Xiaobao himself? Not sure, let's see]
I have a bold idea for my birthday.
[Achieved]
...
[She was proposed to just like that, looking so radiant and beautiful]
I got proposed to, so I'm a married man now. Any dinners or parties I want to attend will have to ask my wife, Qingshan Xiaobao, for permission first.
[Talking about Qingshan Xiaobao makes me behave (referring to me, no one else does)]
...
[Look at me, I never had a wife to tie my tie for me either]
...
A new year, new changes; this is a scar that's been kissed before. A like, and I'll kiss it back.
...
Dan Qingshan's vision went black, then black again, then black once more.
Zhou! Chong!
After the birthday party ended, Zhou Chong pretended to be drunk and had Qingshan Xiaobao help him upstairs.
Qingshan Xiaobao is exceptionally gentle.
Be careful.
Are you feeling unwell?
Would you like some water?
Zhou Chong was practically grinning from ear to ear.
"I'm drunk, I want Qingshan Xiaobao to kiss me."
Shan Qingshan lowered his head and kissed him.
Zhou Chong happily wanted to roll around in bed.
Shan Qingshan: "I can't find my phone. Where's yours? Can I borrow it to make a call?"
Completely infatuated, Zhou Chong handed over his phone.
Shan Qingshan swiped open his phone, opened his Moments, turned the screen to face Zhou Chong.
What's going on with these posts on WeChat Moments?
Zhou Chong: "..."
Why did this have to happen on such a happy day?!
"Who's the one with the long tongue..."
Zhou Chong was halfway through his sentence when he realized he was pretending to be drunk, so he swallowed his words and collapsed onto the bed.
"Drink! Keep drinking!"
Dan Qingshan readily put away his phone.
"Since you're drunk, I'll ask you again tomorrow."
Still asking?!
Zhou Chong sat up abruptly and knelt down swiftly.
"I was just showing off my relationship."
"Why did you block me?" Only he was blocked.
"If you saw this, you'd definitely be unhappy and wouldn't let me post it."
Who knows about Zhou Chong's happiness?
Blue sky, white clouds, the sea, and wind?
Stop kidding me!
What's the point?
Zhou Chong raised three fingers and swore, "I have nothing else blocking you, you can see."
Shan Qingshan flipped through it, not because he didn't believe him, but because he wanted to see if there was anything he hadn't seen.
some.
There are many photos of him.
Most of them are side views, long shots, or shots from behind, so they were probably taken secretly.
The way he looks when he's reading, cooking, or sleeping.
The copywriting features a little baby plus a red heart.
