Xu Chaomu was completely drunk, rambling non-stop, and yet she kept pouring more alcohol into her glass.
âFour⦠when you have a baby in the future, can you let him play with me, donât ignore me⦠I will definitely like him a lot, Iâll give him all the tasty food, Iâll take him to the amusement park⦠heâs sure to look a lot like you⦠actually, do you know, on the first day I met you, I really wanted to beat you up, but I couldnât beat youâ¦â
As Xu Chaomu cried and cried, she suddenly broke into a smile, and everything from eight years ago became increasingly clear in her mind.
That day, the sunlight was so beautiful, everything was beautiful.
The boy was dressed in a white shirt, standing in the sunlight with furrowed brows, unsmiling.
She hugged him, and he disliked her; she wanted to kiss him, and he disliked her even more.
She moved closer and closer to him, and he warned her, âDonât let me see you within three steps!â
She wouldnât, just wouldnât.
The following eight years, she tried hard to tease him, but he was always
indifferent.
Her head started to hurtâ¦
Not wanting to think further, Xu Chaomu filled up another glass of wine.
âMumu, you really canât drink anymore, come home with me, youâre going crazy!â Yu Weiwei was scared. This girl was drinking alcohol like it was water; how much stress must she be under?
âDonât pull me, donât pull me⦠I want to drink, donât pull meâ¦â Xu Chaomu struggled.
It was at this moment that a waiter came over with drinks.
âGood evening, this is a complimentary bottle of champagne from our bar.
Please enjoy and have a pleasant life.â
After saying that, he opened the bottle and placed it on their table.
Yu Weiwei was curious, since when did the bar start giving away drinks? Was there some promotion?
Xu Chaomu was all bright-eyed, grabbing the bottle and pouring.
âGurgleâ âgurgleâ, soon, another glass was filled!
âMy dear, Iâm begging you, letâs go, if you keep drinking like this, it will be the death of you! I, Yu Weiwei, do not want to end up in jail, you know!â
Yu Weiwei desperately pulled at Xu Chaomu, while Xu Chaomu desperately flung off her hands.
âDonât stop me, donât stop me⦠actually, I miss my mom a bit⦠I really want to see her⦠In this world, only she loves me the mostâ¦â
Yu Weiwei was terrified: âYou⦠youâre not thinking of doing something foolish, are you?â
Yu Weiwei really regretted it; why did she bring her to the bar!
Xu Chaomu downed another big gulp of alcohol, half crying and half laughing,
âWeiwei, Weiweiâ¦â
âIâm here, Iâm here, Iâm right here.â
âDo you know⦠heâs getting engaged on the eighth of next month, Iâm going to be Bai Manâs bridesmaid⦠The closest one to him will be the bride, and next closest will be the bridesmaid, rightâ¦?â
Yanli was stunned. Xu Chaomu was going to be Bai Manâs bridesmaid? This was self-torture, masochism to the extreme. How much did this girl love that man!
Yu Weiweiâs heart ached.
âDo you still remember⦠the joke you once told meâ¦â
Xu Chaomu paused, then took another big swig of alcohol.
She was so blurred that she couldnât see clearly anymore, only able to reach out and grab onto the bottle.
âIâve told you so many jokes, the clean ones and the dirty ones, which one are you referring to?â
âThe one⦠that oneâ¦â
âAlright, alright, if you canât remember donât talk about it anymore, letâs go back to school, be a good girl.â Yu Weiwei coaxed and cajoled.
âI want to talk about it⦠itâs the one⦠you told me before, the furthest distance in the world is⦠when heâs getting married, and you are the bridesmaidâ¦â
Yu Weiwei remembered, back then, she had said, âThe furthest distance in the world is not the remote ends of the earth, nor life and death, but when heâs getting married, and I am only a bridesmaid.â
At the time, Xu Chaomu laughed heartily without a care, âLet him get married, why hang oneself on a single tree, the world is never short of men!â Yu Weiwei sighed heavily, wishing she had never told her that.
âWeiwei you donât understand⦠actually, seeing him happy makes me really happy⦠trulyâ¦â
After saying that, Xu Chaomu burst into tears with a âwaahâ.
âHappy and you still cry, you just know how to lie to yourself!â Yu Weiwei couldnât help but scold her, feeling uneasy as she saw Xu Chaomu so distressed.
Shen Chi received a strange call while he was in the middle of a meeting with the group.
During meetings, his phone was always with Xiao MO, let alone todayâs secret meeting, which was very important and concerned the diamond project in South Africa.
Xiao MO picked up the call and heard Xu Chaomuâs name.
Xiao MO didnât know much about Xu Chaomu, but Shen Chi had specifically instructed that anything regarding Xu Chaomu should be reported to him immediately.
But he was in a dilemma now. Shen Chi was in a meeting; what should he do.
Weighing the pros and cons, he decided to go into the meeting room first.
âEveryone here, I trust the most as the saying goes, powers should check and balance each other, but you all know what kind of person I am, Shen Chi. Some say Iâm ambitious, yes, thatâs true, so I donât allow the presence of powers within the group. This South Africa diamond project, we must sign the contract as soon as possible!â
Shen Chi, dressed in a black suit, sat at the forefront, his gaze icy and his tone resolute.
Xiao MO stepped forward quickly and whispered in Shen Chiâs ear, âPresident
Shen, I just received a call that Xu Chaomu is drunk at the bar. 1977 Bar at
Hengtian Plaza.â
Shen Chiâs gaze sharpened, then calmed instantly.
Xiao MO thought Shen Chi would respond as usual with, âWeâll talk about it after the meeting!â
But unexpectedly, just three or four seconds later, Shen Chi stood up.
âAdjourn the meeting!â His low, hoarse voice brooked no argument.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Xiao MO hurriedly followed him, âPresident Shen, the meeting has only just begun. Should it be postponed or rescheduled?â
âReschedule!â
âAlright. Do you need me to drive you there?â
âNo need, stay at the group. If anything happens, report to me immediately.â
âYes.â
Shen Chi said as he strode toward the elevator. He had only been away for a little over an hour; how had she run off to the bar and even dared to drink? Who gave her such courage?
If he caught her, he would not spare her!
Shen Chiâs gaze was icy, his eyes sharp as a hawk, his face exuding a chill that could freeze everything around him.
To make her behave, yet she always had to be so willful!
She always found a way to drive him up the wall, it was truly unbearable!
Shen Chi drove off in his Maybach toward the direction of 1977 Bar!
Xu Chaomu was really hammered, wrapping her arms around Yu Weiweiâs shoulders and clamoring, âFour, kiss me, will you⦠I know men and women shouldnât touch⦠but, a ceremonial kiss is okay too⦠is it okay, is it okayâ¦â
Yu Weiwei didnât know whether to laugh or cry, slapping Xu Chaomuâs cheek, âChaomu, Iâm taking you to sober up. Iâm not your Four, and your Four wonât possibly come. Forget about that old man, we donât need him, huh! Come on, letâs go to the washroom.â
âHe doesnât want me anymore⦠He really doesnât want me anymore⦠I knew there would be such a dayâ¦â
âStop crying, stop feeling bad, Iâll introduce you to my second uncle. My second uncle isnât bad either, oh, right, Lou Yanli is miles better than your Four. Itâs us who donât want him, not the other way around.â Yu Weiwei supported Xu Chaomu..
