Chapter 54 - Ulterior motive
The car drove for about half an hour and arrived at the restaurant they had booked.
After arriving at the private room, the other party had not come yet, so Li Zhuoen took out her cell phone and played it boringly.
Just as she started playing The Daily Cool Runner vigorously, there's a phone call came in. Li Zhuoen looked at the caller alert and the word "Rat" was written on the screen, which was her term of endearment for Cen Yuhao, who was always so dark, sinister, and strange.
"What?" When she answered the phone, Li Zhuoen's tone was very unfriendly, she still remembered this morning's revenge!
"Is this how you treat your newlywed husband?" Cen Yuhao's voice sounded gangly, with a cynical smile.
"Oh, the new husband who has been married to me. And that newlywed husband gave his wife a big gift this morning!" As she mentioned it, Li Zhuoen's face was even worse.
"This newlywed husband said you're welcome, it's only right to prepare her so well, who told them to just get married!" Cen Yuhao said while smiling smugly.
"Are you so idle!" Li Zhuoen was getting angrier and angrier, this person must be looking for a fight, right?
"How do you know?" Cen Yuhao sat on a cool chair in the courtyard, looking at the flowers in the garden, "I was just bored at home alone, so I called to have some fun." He found that after not seeing her for a day, he even missed her a little.
So he can deliberately come to be amused by her, right?
Li Zhuoen felt that she had spontaneously combusted and stood up: "Cen Yuhao, you go to hell!"
After saying this, she angrily hung up the phone. At this moment, she sadly found that Lei Yan and several other people came into the room, apparently, they also heard her roar like a lioness.
There was a momentary freeze in the air.
"Haha, I was really right, Miss Li is really a very generous person!" It was Lei Yan who first broke the somewhat awkward silence.
"Hehe." Li Zhuoen giggled a little. It was all because of that damn Cen Yuhao, her image is ruined!
Although she didn't want to leave a very good impression on the other party either, coming out to dinner together always represented the image of a company, and she just yelled so much, so I guess how bad the situation was.
She quietly glanced at the manager, who was also looking at her with an angry face at the moment. Well, it's not my business, I told you not to call me, but you had to bring me here, now it's done! Li Zhuoen muttered in her heart.
"Minister Lei, please sit up!" After glaring at her, Zhou Yujie was busy bringing Lei Yan to the upper seat and sat down.
Everyone else also took their seats according to their positions. Of course, with Li Zhuoen's role as a small shrimp, he could only sit in the most inferior position.
The food was soon brought to the table.
Li Zhuoen in line with the principle of coming is to eat, once the dishes are on the table, the men are only concerned about the toast over there, she was responsible for sweeping the dishes on the table.
"Zhuoen, don't just eat the food, come over and toast our Minister Lei ah." Zhou Yujie suddenly opened his mouth and said to Li Zhuoen, who was sitting across from him.
Li Zhuoen was doing battle with the food on the table very seriously, so when she heard him say that, she lifted her mouth full of oil. But in her heart, she was thinking, You're lying to me, aren't you, just in the company has said that I will just eat the food!
Hearing Zhou Yujie says this, the other people also put down their chopsticks and looked over in her direction.
Uh, why are you all looking at me? Just ignore my existence like you did just now! I'm really just here to play! Li Zhuoen really wanted to say that.
"Hurry up Zhuoen, our Minister Lei is still waiting." Seeing that she was still sitting, Zhou Yujie urged again.
If she didn't make a toast, it would be hard for her to escape, right? Toast!
Li Zhuoen picked up a teacup in front of herself, then got up and walked around the others to Lei Yan's front.
"Minister Lei, I am not strong enough to drink, so I will toast you with a cup of tea instead of wine." Li Zhuoen said, raising the teacup to his chest.
"How can you toast tea? That looks so insincere!" Zhou Yujie answered again.
Damned old baldy, that's not what you just said in the company! Li Zhuoen gestured to him with her eyes.
"It's fine, it's fine, the tea is the same." Lei Yan was not constrained by this.
"How can this be?" Zhou Yujie, as if he didn't see Li Zhuoen's eyes, picked up a wine glass and stood up, then walked to her and replaced her teacup, "Toast Minister Lei with this wine!"
Li Zhuoen looked at him suspiciously, he gestured at her with his eyes, and she immediately understood, knowing that it was only plain water, so she accepted it painfully, "Good, then I will toast Minister Lei with a glass of wine!"
"Good!" Lei Yan stood up and clinked his glass with her, then the two of them tilted their necks together and drank all the liquid in the glass.
Li Zhuoen thought that it was white water anyway, it didn't matter if she drank it all down, so she also pretended to be boozy and drank the large cup full of liquid with a tilt of her neck.
When she drank it into her stomach, she realized after the fact that it was not white water, it was white wine!
At once, she only felt from her mouth all the way down to her stomach, all the way hot and spicy.
Damn, she actually got cheated by that old fox Zhou Yujie! Only then did she understand.
"Miss Li is really good at drinking!" Lei Yan gave her a thumbs up.
"Oh, enjoy your meal." What Li Zhuoen wanted to do the most right now was to go to that jerk Zhou Yujie to have a theory, but after thinking about it, she held back.
In a depressed mood, she returned to her seat and sat down. Not long after she sat down, she started to feel a little dizzy in her head. She shook her head vigorously to clear it, but the more she shook it, the more she found her head sinking.
The next thing they said, she did not listen very carefully, just felt very noisy, or the sound of clinking glasses.
She doesn't know how long it took for the banquet to finally be over, but Li Zhuoen had long since slumped to the table unconscious.
"Zhuoen? Zhuoen? Wake up!" Zhou Yujie went to Li Zhuoen's front and pushed her hard. But she only frowned slightly, and then fell asleep again.
Li Zhuoen could not drink, especially white wine, once she drank, she would get drunk, and tonight she also drank a full two taels in one gulp, once the after-effects of the wine came, she did not know anything.
"Zhuo ......" Seeing that she still has no intention to wake up, Zhou Yujie intends to continue calling her.
"Let her sleep, I'll find someone to help her down." Lei Yan reached out to stop him.
"Okay, then I'll find someone to come over." Hearing him say so, Zhou Yujie could only do as he was told.
In a short while, two waitresses came, and they carefully helped Li Zhuoen up with one left and one right, and then followed a few people out of the restaurant.
"Just leave her to me." Lei Yan said, picking up Li Zhuoen from the two waitresses' hands.
"It's better to hand her over to me, I'll have someone send her back later." Zhou Yujie looked at her hanging on Lei Yan's body like a puddle of mud, so he said to him.
"No need, I let the driver drive over today, I'll just send her back later." Lei Yan refused his suggestion.
"But ......" Zhou Yujie looked at Li Zhuoen in his arms, the latter half of the sentence did not come out.
At this moment, Lei Yan's driver drove his car over.
"My car has arrived, I'll send her back first." Lei Yan said, helping Li Zhuoen and getting into the car.
Watching the car carrying them drive into the night, Zhou Yujie still had some intolerance. The man took the initiative to send a drunk woman home, how easy it is to make people think wrong ah! Alas, Li Zhuoen, you are lucky for yourself! This is not my original intention!
Zhou Yujie sighed, then waved for a cab and got in.
"Where is this place?" Li Zhuoen woke up in a daze and saw that she was in a private car, so she asked.
"We're on our way to your house." Seeing that she had woken up, Lei Yan smiled at her jadedly.
"But I didn't even tell you where my house is, how did you know?" Li Zhuoen felt a little strange.
"Oh, it was your manager who told me." Lei Yan replied.
"My manager?" Li Zhuoen thought back for a moment, how could he possibly know her address!
"Please stop the car, I'll get off here." The more she thought about it, the more she felt that something wasn't quite right, so she said to the driver driving in front of her.
"You're so drunk now, how can I leave you here? Don't worry, I will take you home." Lei Yan completely looked like a good guy.
"I want to throw up, I want to go out and blow off some steam!" Li Zhuoen said, reaching out to open the car door.
"Miss Li, you're drunk, and now it's dangerous to park on the elevated road." Lei Yan reached out and held her hand that wanted to open the car door.
Li Zhuoen felt her consciousness was starting to blur again, she desperately wanted to make herself sober, but the alcohol seemed to be getting stronger and stronger, and she was really afraid that she would fall asleep in the next moment.
"I'm not getting off, let go of me, I'm afraid I'll throw up on you later." Li Zhuoen knew that she should not get off now, so she said to him.
Hearing her say she wasn't getting off, Lei Yan then took his grip off her hand.
With what little consciousness she had left, she took out her cell phone from her bag without moving, found the last call record, and pressed the dialing button.
But before the other side picked up, she had fallen asleep again.
