Chapter 40: A Masterclass in Public Displays of Affection
Gu Siyu took the wine glass and downed a glass of wine in one go!
“Good, refreshing!” He Yiming clapped his hands, truly bold, worthy of being someone Bei Ming Hao Chen brought along.
Gu Siyu frowned slightly; she couldn’t drink, especially not Chinese liquor, which felt like it had a strong aftereffect.
“Siyu, you don’t need to be too nervous. The fact that Hao Chen brought you here means he considers you one of his own.”
“This is just a casual gathering for a few of us.”
“Come, I’ll toast you.”
So, the main point was in that last sentence, right?
Gu Siyu glanced at Su Bo. This person, who looked the most gentle and refined, spoke so sharply, subtly trapping people without them realizing it.
“Hao Chen, I can’t drink, you help me.”
Gu Siyu cast a pleading look at Bei Ming Hao Chen, worried that if she drank any more, she wouldn’t be able to leave this private room.
“Alright, stop messing around. You all wanted to see her, and I’ve brought her here. You’ve seen her? Satisfied?”
Bei Ming Hao Chen stopped Su Bo from continuing to ply Gu Siyu with alcohol.
“Satisfied. Hao Chen’s luck is indeed good; he can find such a wonderful girl. Why don’t I have one?”
Su Bo raised an eyebrow and smiled slightly.
“You’re not as handsome as me!”
Bei Ming Hao Chen blurted out!
Pfft… Can you not be so narcissistic?
The private room for four was incredibly lively. Su Bo and He Yiming had an excellent impression of Gu Siyu and kept talking to her. On the other hand, Bei Ming Hao Chen seemed like an outsider at this moment.
Bei Ming Hao Chen was slightly annoyed. His male pride told him he had to stop this situation from developing further. Thus, he grabbed Gu Siyu and pulled her into his embrace, holding her tightly. He lowered his head and lightly pecked her tempting red lips, then spoke with a slight air of punishment, “You really are restless, aren’t you? Wherever you go, you’re always flirting, hmm?”
Huh? Where am I flirting!
Gu Siyu rolled her eyes. “You’re the one ignoring me, and they were the ones who started talking to me.”
“What could I do? I’m desperate too!”
Gu Siyu feigned pity, nestling into Bei Ming Hao Chen’s embrace.
The petite girl leaned against Bei Ming Hao Chen’s shoulder, which was broad and warm.
Bei Ming Hao Chen was momentarily stunned. He actually felt that the sensation… was nice?
Damn it!
“Tsk tsk, putting on quite a show of affection.”
He Yiming smacked his lips and sighed slightly.
There were still two single people in this private room. Was it really appropriate to flaunt their affection so openly?
…
Later, Gu Siyu was plied with a few more drinks, her face flushed, and her mind growing hazy.
Gu Siyu didn’t know how she left, only feeling that someone had picked her up and carried her.
–
Rubbing her aching head, Gu Siyu opened her eyes. Where was this? It was Bei Ming Family’s room, her room?
She figured she must have been drunk, and Bei Ming Hao Chen brought her back.
Fortunately, fortunately, she hadn’t drunk too much, otherwise Gu Siyu wouldn’t have known what crazy, nonsensical things she might have done.
“Miss Gu, you’re awake. Madam asked you to wash up and come down for breakfast.”
A servant happened to push the door open. Seeing Gu Siyu sitting up, she directly conveyed Zuo Ning’s message.
Gu Siyu nodded, indicating she understood. After the servant left, she rubbed her temples and walked towards the washroom…
