âHow could anyone be angry with President Wang,â she said with a sultry glance at the bald older man, explaining with all kinds of charm, âChi and I were high school classmates, so we know each other. But after high school, Chi went abroad to study, and we lost touch.â
âSo it is, it seems today is really fateful, bringing you two together again. Since youâre classmates, why donât you exchange phone numbers? You can arrange to hang out someday.â
âI have no problem with that, but it depends on whether Miss Chi is willing.â
âItâs not easy to run into a high school classmate. Enen would definitely be willing, right?â President Wang interjected.
With him saying that, Chi Enen felt awkward refusing and ended up exchanging phone numbers with Gu Qianci.
Thereâs never a lack of topics at a business social, and as soon as they exchanged numbers, a new topic shifted everyoneâs attention.
Chi Enen sat down, holding her mobile phone and looking at Gu Qianci.
In the stiff professional suit she wore, her figure was accentuated, curves pronounced. Her straight, beautiful legs wrapped under a tight skirt seemed to beckon invitingly, utterly sexy. Not to mention the flirtatious air about her, which made even a woman like herself believe this was the kind of woman men are drawn to!
But if she hadnât seen it with her own eyes, Chi Enen would never have believed the once shy and naive maiden could have transformed into the person she was now.
âCome on, President Wang, let me toast you another glass. Youâll have to look after our companyâs business more in the future, you know~!â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âOf course!â
âAnd Manager Li, thanks for looking after us last month.â
âHahaha, my pleasure.â
Gu Qianci seemed to know everyone well and was even more adroit at socializing than Qin Nan at the table. She made sure to attend to everyone, especially the men, who were all utterly captivated by her.
Qin Nan watched, dumbfounded, and leaned toward Chi Enen to whisper, âYour high school classmate is fierce. Since we came in, she must have drunk at least eight shots of white liquor and her face hasnât turned red at all. Was she always such a good drinker?â
Chi Enen was somewhat at a loss for words.
Before?
She remembered Gu Qianci used to get drunk from just a sip, which was why she dreaded class reunions because there would always be communal meals and an expectation to drink a couple of beers just to be sociableâ¦
âXiao Qin, Enen. Let me toast to you both.â Just then, Bald Director Wang noticed them and, smiling, came over with a wine bottle, pouring each a glass.
He filled the glasses to the brim, almost spilling. Chi Enenâs head started to throb, and not wishing to upset him in this setting, she bravely picked up the wine glass and drank it down.
The white liquor was fiery and potent, painfully irritating her throat.
Barely managing to swallow it, her glass was refilled once again.
There was Bald Director Wang, lifting his wine glass and coming closer with a suggestive smile, âThey say beauties look even better under the lamp light. Enen, come, this is for you.â
Having been around the table for years, Qin Nan sensed something was off and hurriedly intervened, âPresident Wang, my partner doesnât really drink. Let me drink with you instead.â
President Wangâs face dropped, and he complained unhappily, âJust one toast and she canât drink? Is she not giving me face?â
âItâs not like that, what I meant wasâ¦â Qin Nan, taken aback by his sudden change of mood, was at a loss for words.
In that slightly awkward moment, Chi Enen raised her glass with a smile, breaking the tension, âPresident Wang, please donât be upset. I may not hold my liquor well, and Sister Nan was worried that Iâd get drunk and spoil the mood for everyone, so she offered to drink for me. But how could I let someone else take my place when President Wang toasts? President Wang, Iâll drink to you first!â
