107: Chapter 104 Lu Yinchu, whyâ¦â¦_1 107: Chapter 104 Lu Yinchu, whyâ¦â¦_1 Lu Yinchu pursed his lips, keeping his face composed, as he turned to glance at the blushing little woman next to him, he gave her a light smile and called, âNanxiâ¦â
Nanxi hesitated a moment, âHmm?â
The lighting in the private room was bright, a soft blue halo emanating from the walls!
Nanxiâs face was rendered translucent by these elusive lights, her black pupils sparkled with a thin ray of light, as she looked at Lu Yinchu with a hint of confusion.
Lu Yinchu went on, âNanxi, your uncle will need the help of these leaders in the future, honor them with a toast on your uncleâs behalf!â
As soon as these words were spoken, a few of the seated men were taken aback, a little girl offering them a toast made them feel somewhat awkwardâ¦
However, Lu Yinchu didnât seem to be joking!
Nanxi pursed her lips, she thought Lu Yinchuâs words made sense, after all, they were all high-ranking leaders, she dared not offend any of them.
She realized, if she offended these leaders today, it would be her beloved uncle who would suffer in the future!
So, Nanxi put her pretenses aside, she was about to stand up with the wine glass in hand, but Lu Yinchu quickly held on to her wrist, âJust make a gesture, no need to drain the glass!â
Nanxi pursed her lips, she wasnât particularly grateful for Lu Yinchuâs âspecial considerationâ, as she had already noticed the strange, even ambiguous glances from those aroundâ¦
Nanxi gave him a polite smile, âThank you, Mr.
Lu!â
She was clearly trying to distance herself from himâ¦
The man didnât seem to mind, let go of her, his expression was serene.
âItâs an honor to meet all the leaders, on behalf of my uncle, I propose a toast to you all!â
After Nanxi spoke, some of the leaders who were more hearty had already toasted in honor, they drained their glass in a gulp!
ââ¦
âthis is forcing her to drain the glass, isnât it?
Nanxi took a deep breath, closed her eyes, tilted her head back and drank the white wine in the glass in one gulp, ignoring Lu Yinchuâs gesture, and distanced herself from him againâ¦
âMiss Gu is truly bold!â
One of the leaders exclaimed, Nanxi remembered him, he was the director of the Cultural Center, a man in his forties.
With a smile, Nanxi prepared to sit down, but the man spoke again, âMiss Gu has a good drinking capacity, I would like to toast on behalf of our colleagues here, I hope Miss Gu can appreciate my gestureâ¦
well, Iâll make a toast first!â
ââ¦
âIt was too late to stop him, moreover, the server who was serving the dishes was very efficient, and had already poured Nanxi another glass!
Lu Yinchu, did nothing to stop it!
Nanxi gave everyone a smile, involuntarily, she had to pick up the glass of wine and tilt her head back, gulping down another glass, Mo Yan across from her frowned.
After she finished drinking, she used the excuse of going to the washroom â fearing she wouldnât be able to hold on further.
Her steps, still steady, indicated the alcohol hadnât gone to her head yet, but as soon as she stepped out of the private room, she started feeling dizzy in the dim corridorâ¦
She rubbed her temples, shaking her head, but why did it feel like the floor was shaking, even the lights in the corridor were shakingâ¦
The last bit of Nanxiâs consciousness seemed to signal that she was getting drunk!
She leaned against the wall, trying to walk, but she felt like she couldnât move, it was very tiring, really tiring, and a little bitter: It was not necessary to act so tough, she regrettably didnât appreciate Lu Yinchuâs kind help, she gulped down the wine, and furthermore, two glasses, what now?
Nanxi touched her face, trying to sober up a little, but her body was getting more and more exhausted, and her head was getting dizzier.
She let out a sigh, very upset, she stumbled, about to fall, when a strong arm suddenly wrapped around her and held her tightlyâ¦
In her daze, Nanxi wanted to see clearly who it was, but the man held her head against his chest, his strong heartbeat pulsing into her earsâ¦
steady, powerfulâ¦
Perhaps it was the familiarity of the embrace and the scent that made Nanxi involuntarily wrap her arms around the manâs waist.
The man shuddered, his one hand tightened further around herâ¦
Nanxi was completely confused now!
Lu Yinchu silently observed Nanxi, drowsily leaning against him, his thin lips moved, the door to the private room opened, Mo Yan and several leaders came out, upon seeing Lu Yinchu, they refrained from saying too much, as Mo Yan had already gestured for them to leaveâ¦
the meaning was very clearâ¦
After Mo Yan escorts the leaders out, Lu Yinchu, holding Nanxi, heads towards the elevator at the other end.
Gravity shifted, Nanxi furrowed her eyebrows slightly, feeling somewhat uncomfortable.
She reached out with her hand, grabbed hold of Lu Yinchuâs collar and tugged it hard, the strong pull causing Lu Yinchuâs button to pop open, and her nails scratched his fair neckâ¦
Lu Yinchuâs thin lips moved again, he stayed silent, continued to carry her forwardâ¦
Exiting the elevator, a male and female employees were waiting there, not wasting any time with words, they directly led him to a room, stopping at the doorâ¦
The female employee handed over the room key, Lu Yinchu signaled them with a wave of his hand and they retreatedâ¦
Lu Yinchu took a deep breath, put Nanxi down, she stumbled a step and leaned against the wall, her body was about to slide down against the marble wall, he caught her in timeâ¦
Her neck exposed, her exquisite collarbone revealed, her pink lips exuding a fragrant scent of alcohol, eyes half closed, between the trembles of her eyelashes, wet tears started to overflowâ¦
Her hand blindly grasped around, when she caught hold of his suit, she wouldnât let go, her body swaying, apparently feeling discomfort, her eyebrows knotted, the grip of her hand growing stronger, her nails were almost scratching his chestâ¦
Lu Yinchuâs brows furrowed, he gasped quietly, and reaching up, cradled her cute face in his hands, he leaned down to kiss her soft lipsâ¦
This was the second time, he had kissed her while she was drunkâ¦
â¦
That night, a rainstorm came down, the city lights were desolate, but inside a certain hotel room, everything was exceptionally quiet and serene.
The only light in the room was a dim blue lamp, making the surrounding scene hazy and dark!
Once the woman was laid on the bed, the man stood up in the shadowy illumination, headed to the washroom for a bit, returned within two minutes, holding a damp towel in his handâ¦
This was the first time he was doing this for a woman, he wasnât used to it and was rather clumsy, but he was extremely delicate and tender, causing no discomfort to Nanxi.
After wiping her face, he wiped her hands, her hands were really small, they could be firmly held in his, he thought, he could give her the most perfect protection, and he would be willing to give it his all to create that perfection!
He bent down, kissed her lips gently, not daring to disturb her, even though she was quite drunk now!
Just as he was about to pull away, a slender hand suddenly reached up and wrapped around his neck, then, the woman on the bed opened her eyesâ¦
Their eyes metâ¦
âLu Yinchu, whyâ¦
did you kiss me!â she asked.
