"You're not bringing your fiancée?" Ye Jinghuai raised his eyebrows.
An Nuan glared at Ye Jinghuai.
Ye Jinghuai pretended not to see it.
Gu Yan Sheng refused, "Nuan Nuan can't hold her liquor."
"Is that so?" Ye Jinghuai smiled faintly.
No one could tell what he was smiling about.
An Nuan also couldn't guess Ye Jinghuai's thoughts.
She just felt that this man was completely different from the frivolous image he portrayed.
"If Young Master Ye minds, I can drink in Nuan Nuan's place. I'll drink two cups," Gu Yan Sheng stated directly.
"Since Young Master Gu is so protective of his wife, I'll humbly oblige and drink up," Ye Jinghuai said. He immediately finished his own cup in one go.
Gu Yan Sheng did the same.
After finishing one cup, he poured himself another and drank two cups.
And so it began.
Everyone who drank with Gu Yan Sheng had to let him drink An Nuan's share too.
Qin Jiang and Xia Qiqi sang for a while.
After receiving a look from Ye Jinghuai, they immediately put down the microphone and ran over to voluntarily toast Gu Yan Sheng.
In fact, it was to get Gu Yan Sheng drunk.
Xia Qiqi looked at Qin Jiang somewhat annoyed.
They were singing enthusiastically.
Why did he have to run off like that?
She had originally wanted to pass the microphone to Nie Ziming. Remembering what Qin Jiang said about couples who sang "Love in Hiroshima" were destined to break up, although it was nonsense, what if it came true?
As such, the moment Xia Qiqi decided to put down the microphone and stop singing herself...
She heard a deep male voice that was clearly singing very well.
"Crossing the moral boundary / We walked through the forbidden zone of love / Enjoying the illusion of happiness / Misunderstanding the meaning of joy." It was Xiao Nanchen singing.
Xia Qiqi was stunned for a few seconds before responding, "...As long as we don't have to watch love slip through our fingers tomorrow, saying goodbye."
"Not enough time to love you properly," Xiao Nanchen sang.
"Should've stopped..." Xia Qiqi suddenly stopped singing.
She just didn't want to keep singing.
She directly passed the microphone to An Xiao next to her, "You sing."
"I can't," An Xiao declined hastily.
Sensing Xia Qiqi's gaze on her, An Zhao said, "I can't either."
Xia Qiqi was speechless.
She couldn't help but glance at Nie Ziming.
Seeing Nie Ziming sitting in the corner.
Due to their different upbringings, he couldn't fit in with these upper-class young masters and ladies.
After working for a year, he was a little better now. In the past, he wouldn't even attend gatherings like this.
Xia Qiqi directly tossed the microphone onto the tea table and went to Nie Ziming's side.
She was always worried that he wouldn't feel comfortable in environments like this, so she paid extra attention to him.
Seeing Xia Qiqi return to his side, the corners of Nie Ziming's lips curved up slightly. He naturally pulled her into his embrace.
Xiao Nanchen glanced over at them.
Then sang on confidently by himself.
When Qin Jiang came back from drinking, he saw Xiao Nanchen singing solo.
The male and female vocals were all solo.
He picked up the microphone and started singing the female parts with Xiao Nanchen.
This song really suited Xiao Nanchen.
On the other side, Gu Yan Sheng was surrounded and continuously toasted, drinking An Nuan's share each time.
However, although he drank a lot, Gu Yan Sheng was enjoying the feeling of being flattered.
So he didn't decline at all, finishing every drink in one go, even drinking hastily.
As a result, it wasn't long before he was clearly quite drunk.
Gu Yan Sheng whispered in An Nuan's ear, "I'm going to the restroom."
"Can you make it yourself?" An Nuan feigned concern.
The intimacy between the two was on display for all to see.
It made An Zhao so jealous she was about to go mad.
If the An family business hadn't been inherited by An Nuan's family, if all the limelight of being the An family eldest daughter was hers, how could she be looked down on like an outsider here? It was clearly because she lacked confidence.
Not only was she extremely unhappy tonight, she knew her mother was furious too.
Suddenly, Li Yage became so dazzling, suddenly the center of attention, suddenly the upper class wives all flocked around Li Yage, if the An family business had fallen to them, everything Li Yage had would be her mother's, everything An Nuan was entitled to should have been hers!
An Zhao suppressed her resentment with great difficulty.
She was itching to immediately go up and separate Gu Yan Sheng and An Nuan.
Fortunately, the two only exchanged some intimate words before Gu Yan Sheng got up and left the private room directly.
Before An Zhao could react, she heard An Xiao whisper in her ear, "Sis, Young Master Gu went out."
An Zhao was about to scold An Xiao for stating the obvious, but understood her implication the next second.
She had to admit, although this illegitimate daughter annoyed and looked down on her, she was more petty-minded than others, which could be somewhat helpful to her.
She hurriedly got up, seemingly leaving the private room unnoticed by everyone.
An Nuan watched it happen.
After a long time, Gu Yan Sheng finally returned.
When he came back, he seemed much more sober.
But he couldn't withstand the others continuously toasting him again.
It was much later when An Zhao returned, her face clearly flushed with suspicious redness, still shy.
The young people in the private room were still drinking and singing animatedly.
The atmosphere was lively.
An Nuan watched Gu Yan Sheng being pestered by Qin Jiang to drink, completely ignoring her existence now.
She got up to leave.
When she left, Gu Yan Sheng still didn't notice.
To be honest, Gu Yan Sheng was still keen to build ties with Qin Jiang, because the Qin family had special statuses. Gu Yan Sheng wanted to draw him in.
Once Gu Yan Sheng wanted to do his own thing, he never noticed her existence.
She walked indifferently out of the private room.
She waited at the door for a while.
Ye Jinghuai walked out.
An Nuan was waiting for him.
The two walked deeper down the corridor together.
An Nuan said, "Later I'll find a way to get An Zhao to send Gu Yan Sheng home."
Ye Jinghuai didn't respond.
"After they leave, you get Qin Jiang to have someone tail them closely."
"You're getting married in a month, yet you're so certain Gu Yan Sheng would do something like this?"
"I'm certain." A dog can't change its habit of eating shit.
As long as An Zhao took the initiative, Gu Yan Sheng would definitely not refuse.
Clearly, An Zhao's jealousy had reached its peak tonight. She wouldn't hold back.
"Since you're so certain, then the drug I had Qin Jiang prepare won't be needed anymore?" Ye Jinghuai said lightly.
"No need."
"No need, or is Miss An keeping a backdoor for herself too?" The corners of Ye Jinghuai's lips curved up slightly, his tone clearly mocking.
It took An Nuan a few seconds to understand the implication behind Ye Jinghuai's words.
She enunciated, "I never keep a backdoor for myself, let alone for Gu Yan Sheng."
"Is that so?" Ye Jinghuai seemed unconvinced.
"You'll see tonight." Having said that,
An Nuan turned to leave.
She had just lifted her foot.
Her body was suddenly restrained as she was pinned against the wall nearby.
The tipsy Ye Jinghuai was clearly...very dangerous!
