At the dinner, because Sheng Jiaoyang announced the identity of the chairman, there were especially many people toasting.
Those who have never interacted with each other before, she can just take a sip casually, but people like Zhang Yue and others who have filmed together and have friendships cannot be so perfunctory. When people offer a toast, she doesn't say a glass, but half a glass. Drink it, accumulated like this, I drank a lot of wine.
"Jiaojiao, can you still bear it? Why don't we go back?" Lin Na looked at Sheng Jiaoyang, who had very rosy cheeks, and said with some worry.
Sheng Jiaoyang shook her hand. She felt like she was drunk from alcohol, but her consciousness was still very clear.
"Chairman Xu, I have offended you so much just now. I would like to propose a toast to you. I hope that the chairman will expose this matter from now on and everyone will work hard for the future of the company." Director Liu picked up his wine glass and stood up.
Sheng Jiaoyang glanced at Director Liu. A man old enough to be a father apologized sincerely. It would have seemed arrogant of her not to have a drink. She picked up the wine glass and stood up slowly, "Okay, let's forget all the grudges in one glass."
She raised the wine glass and brought it to her mouth. Unexpectedly, a hand reached out from behind and took away the wine glass in her hand. She turned her head and looked at it, stunned for a moment.
"Brother Zhi Ning, have you returned to China?"
Shen Zhining raised the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. He placed the wine glass on the table without hesitation. His eyes fell on Sheng Jiaoyang's rosy face. He put one hand on the back of the chair and leaned against it in a half-circle position. Her eyes were slightly warm and she said in a joking tone: "If I don't come back, are you still planning to stay here until you get drunk?"
Thinking of her heroic gesture after being drunk, his eyes flashed, it would be better if she left him alone like that.
"Boss!" Li Yu stood up and subconsciously shouted his usual title. After shouting, he realized that his boss should be Xu Jiaojiao now.
The banquet hall, which was originally lively with everyone talking and laughing, was a little quiet now, and almost everyone was looking at it.
"Wow, our former chairman is here too." Someone murmured.
All the directors stood up, and even Director Zhu frowned just to look more approachable.
"Mr. Shen, it turns out that you used to be our chairman. It's really disrespectful. I'll punish myself with a glass of wine." A director said while holding up his glass.
This director seemed to have opened up everyone's conversation. They picked up their glasses one by one and said:
"Mr. Shen, I have admired you for a long time. I am very sorry that I have not been able to meet you before. Mr. Hali is too tight-lipped and has not revealed any information to us."
"As the saying goes, it doesn't mean that one family doesn't stay in the same house. It seems that Mr. Shen and I are still destined. Come, come and have a drink with Mr. Shen."
Sheng Jiaoyang looked at the faces of each of them, with eager expressions as if they had seen meat and potatoes, showing excessive enthusiasm and flirtation.
But yes, Shen Zhining is the head of the entire Shen family. The family has a big business. If a little business is left out, it will be enough for them to live for a while. How can he not be enthusiastic
Shen Zhining's eyes slid over the disdainful expression on Sheng Jiaoyang's face. The corner of his mouth curled up. The hand that was originally on the back of the chair directly hugged her waist. The other hand picked up Sheng Jiaoyang's wine glass. Yu poured him wine with a wink.
He picked up the wine glass, not only to a few directors, but also to the entire banquet hall, and said: "Please cooperate with our Jiaojiao's work in the future. I wish you all a happy New Year in advance."
Everyone in the banquet hall stood up and raised their glasses: "Happy New Year."
Boss Shen's aura was so strong that he took control of the whole scene as soon as he came on, and captured everyone's attention in a particularly light way.
Sheng Jiaoyang looked at Shen Zhining with some fascination. Why do big stars and domineering CEOs become the objects of girls' fantasies? It's because their way of scolding Fang Qiu and responding to everything at once is too easy to make people crazy.
Ahem, Hua Chi Jiao is officially online.
Growing up, she had only been a nymphomaniac for two people. One was of course the incredibly handsome Lin Yan, and the other was of course Shen Zhining in front of her. The former is because of her appearance, and the latter is because of the invisible aura exuding from her body that makes her obsessed.
"Everyone, have fun tonight." After Shen Zhining said that, he put his arms around Sheng Jiaoyang and walked out.
Sheng Jiaoyang's mind was already confused by alcohol, no, it should be said that it was confused by Shen Zhining, so that she only remembered that she missed someone after she and Shen Zhining got in the car.
"Oh, the pretty girl is still up there!"
"Your agent and assistant are here. They will send her back." Shen Zhining pulled Sheng Jiaoyang back as he was about to push the door out.
"Oh, okay." Sheng Jiaoyang smiled at Shen Zhining, her eyes narrowed into crescent shapes, she looked very cute and cute.
After not seeing each other for a week, Shen Zhining felt like he was several years apart. Seeing her like this, Shen Zhining felt particularly itchy. He looked at Man Jun who was driving in front of him and said, "As soon as possible."
Manjun replied without even looking in the rearview mirror: "Okay."
In the banquet hall, Lin Na felt funny as she watched Sheng Jiaoyang being taken away by Shen Zhining.
Seeing Boss Shen's impatient look, she already knew what they were going to do when they returned, so she had the good sense not to follow them.
"They have such a good relationship." Gu Zhou sighed softly.
Lin Na turned to look at Gu Zhou, "They have been friends for more than ten years, how can they not have feelings!"
Gu Zhou smiled and changed the subject: "Lin Na, are you planning to celebrate the New Year here?"
"We have this plan for the time being." Lin Na nodded.
"Then do you plan to develop your acting career here in the coming year?"
"Well... this year's plan is almost set. Even if we have this idea, we have to postpone it for a year."
They had worked together on advertising before, so although the two of them didn't have the same close relationship as they did with Jiaojiao, they could still be regarded as close friends.
When the dinner was about to end, Gu Zhou said to Lin Na, "Where do you live? I'll give you a ride."
"Thank you. I'm staying at Jiaojiao's house now." Lin Na didn't shy away from it. She had nothing to shy away from. She was married anyway. And she also believed in Gu Zhou's character. If someone else had said this, she would have refused.
They talked and laughed all the way out of the hotel, and were about to walk towards Gu Zhou's nanny car when a black car came from behind the nanny car and blocked them in front of them.
Gu Zhou reacted quickly and instantly took Lin Na's arm and pulled her behind him. He stood in front of Lin Na as a protector and looked warily at the car whose back door had been pushed open. His assistant had also stepped forward, looking at the car warily.
When Lin Na was pulled behind him by Gu Zhou, she was stunned for a moment. Then she realized that he was protecting her. She couldn't help feeling that Gu Zhou was really a very gentleman. She was about to tell Gu Zhou that in China, He is the one who should pay attention to safety the most, and his eyes have already caught a glimpse of the people coming out of the car.
In an instant, Lin Na took a step back in shock.
It's Xiwen!
Xiwen was taller than Gu Zhou. He looked at Gu Zhou's hand holding Lin Na's wrist with half-smiling eyes, and then looked at Lin Na who was hiding behind Gu Zhou. A mellow meaning came from his slightly hooked lips. The corner of his mouth slipped out: "Baby, do you miss me?"
Gu Zhou's eyes tightened. He understood the Italian language. He turned to look at Lin Na and hesitated: "Lin Na, do you know him?"
He had seen Lin Na's wedding photos. Although he had never met Lin Na's husband, George, he only looked like him. The Italian man in front of him was obviously not George.
Lin Na pursed her lips when she heard Gu Zhou's question. She wanted to say that she didn't know him, but the evil smile on Xiwen's lips made her give up the idea.
She took a deep breath, walked out, looked at Xiwen and said, "Do you have work here? Then go and do your work, I'm going home too."
The corners of Xiwen's mouth curved even wider, and there was a deep affection in his deep brown eyes as he stared at Lin Na, "I'm here to find my little sweetheart who escaped."
"Then you look for it slowly." Lin Na did not let herself lose control. She turned to look at Gu Zhou and said, "Gu Zhou, let's go."
"Are you sure you want to go with him, honey?"
Lin Na paused. She heard the threat in Xiwen's words. At this time, she wanted to turn around and leave, but...
She closed her eyes and said to Gu Zhou again: "You go first, I still have something to solve."
Gu Zhou's eyes wandered around Xiwen, and he asked worriedly: "Can you do it alone?"
"It's okay, thank you." No matter how bad things happened, she had already experienced them. What could be worse
Since he said it was fine, Gu Zhou was not a nosy person, so he just said to call him if anything happened, and left with his assistant.
Seeing Lin Na's choice, Xiwen smiled, stepped forward and reached out to hug her, but she avoided him.
Lin Na looked at Xiwen coldly, "If someone takes a photo, you know what I will do."
Now, wasn't he just using the reason why she didn't dare to confess to George? If the ambiguous relationship between her and Xiwen was revealed and George knew about it, she would be in trouble.
Xiwen retreated to the car door and looked at Lin Na with a smile, "Please."
Lin Na glanced at Xiwen steadily, walked over and got into the car.
On the other side, back at Jinhe Garden, instead of going to Mr. Yang's villa next door, he entered Shen Zhining's villa.
As soon as she entered the door, Shen Zhining noticed that Sheng Jiaoyang was walking slowly and hugged her sideways.
Butler Feili, who was coming up to say hello, silently closed his mouth and watched as the boss couldn't wait to hold the beautiful lady in his arms up the stairs.
Lilith walked out, glanced at the elevator, and said with a smile: "To use a Chinese saying, it's better to say goodbye than a new marriage."
Feili, who always had a serious face on weekdays, rarely showed a smile. He put his arm around Lilith's shoulders, turned and walked towards the room, saying as he walked: "There is nothing to do without us tonight, Lilith, let's rest."
The scene in the master bedroom upstairs is completely different.
From the door to the bed, men's and women's clothes were scattered on the floor.
And on the bed... ahem, the light has been turned on here. (To be continued)
