178 Give Each Other Some Space
âDad.â Xiao Song stopped in front of him.
The smile on his face gave off a gentle feeling, as if he was easy to get along with. âWhy are you drinking wine?â
âThe waiter gave it to me.â
âThe alcohol content is too high.â He reminded Xiao Hexu to watch his health. âIâll get you another glass.â
!!
Xiao Hexu smiled and took the glass from him.
He turned around and introduced the two of them. âYanshen is the same age as you. You can learn from him.â
âAlright.â Xiao Song raised his glass to toast Zhou Yanshen.
He had heard of Zhou Yanshen before. âDidnât CEO Zhou bring a female companion?â
âNo.â
âThen should I find one for you?â
âNo.â Zhou Yanshen leaned back, smoke coming out of his lips. âI have a girlfriend.â
âWhen did it happen?â Xiao Hexu looked at him through the smoke and teased, âWhy didnât I see any media report about it?â
Every time he had a relationship, he would be on the trending searches.
âLast week.â Zhou Yanshen tapped the cigarette casually. âSheâs not in the entertainment industry.â
Hearing that, Xiao Hexu understood.
âIâll take Xiao Song to toast people over there.â Xiao Hexu wanted to introduce more people to Xiao Song and did not plan to sit here for too long.
Zhou Yanshen nodded faintly.
He sat alone in the corner, wanting to avoid unnecessary conversation, but someone still came to disturb him.
âPresident Zhou, cheers?â A beautifully dressed female celebrity showed up in front of him.
Zhou Yanshen, who had learned his lesson once, casually moved to the side, unwilling to get close to her.
He did not look at her twice. âIâm sorry.â
âWhatâs there to be sorry about?â The female celebrity did not seem to understand his rejection and even winked at him.
âI donât want to drink.â
âAre you feeling unwell?â
Seeing that she was getting closer, Zhou Yanshen glanced at her coldly. âIf you donât want to lose your job, get lost.â
Under the dim light, his cold gaze made the female celebrity shiver.
She left tactfully. Not long after that, another woman came.
Zhou Yanshen, who had rejected four or five people in a row, picked up his coat in frustration and strode out.
âYanshen!â Qiao Rou chased after him.
She picked up her dress with her slender hand and stopped in front of him. âAre you leaving?â
âWhy?â
âI have a headache. Can you send me home?â
Zhou Yanshen pressed the elevator button. âThere are many taxis downstairs. Pick one.â
âIâm afraid itâs not safe at this hour.â
âItâs only ten oâclock.â
âIâm still afraid.â Qiao Rou adjusted her shawl and walked into the elevator with him.
Zhou Yanshen looked at her with a faint smile. âWhat are you afraid of?â
âIâm afraid of meeting crazy fans and perverts.â
âYouâre overthinking it.â
Qiao Rou pouted. âYanshen.â Her voice was soft. âSend me home.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Zhou Yanshen could understand her hint, but he did not want to play with her.
âI canât.â He strode out of the elevator that stopped on the first floor. âMy girlfriend is still waiting for me.â
âGirlfriend?â Qiao Rouâs expression changed.
She deliberately took two steps forward, wanting to bump into his broad back. âYanshen, help me upâ¦â
