Tang Jun stepped down from the stage and returned to the table. He immediately picked up the wine glass and respectfully greeted Xi Jiuchen, "Master Xi, Tang didn't greet you well, so here's a toast to you."
Xi Jiuchen immediately stood up and greeted Tang Jun with a cup in his hand, "Uncle Tang, you're welcome."
The drink in Xi Jiuchen's cup was also beer. Seeing Tang Jun drink a glass, Xi Jiuchen politely drank it all.
"Zhi Xia, please pour some wine for Mr. Xi quickly." Tang Jun greeted him hurriedly.
Tang Qingqing on the side rushed to pick up a bottle of red wine, "Dad, let me do it!"
Tang Zhixia was too lazy to argue. Tang Qingqing poured a full cup for Xi Jiuchen, which almost overflowed. Xi Jiuchen frowned.
"Mr. Xi, I am a good friend of Old Tang. It is rare to see a young talent like you, so I would like to toast you." The man next to Tang Jun stood up and raised his glass with a look of honor.
Xi Jiuchen stood up again and raised his glass to him. The man immediately said, "I'll drink it, you can do whatever you want."
Since he was Tang Jun's friend and considered an elder, Xi Jiuchen also drank a glass of it out of respect.
Tang Zhixia watched him drink two drinks in a row, and immediately thought that his stomach was not good, so Tang Qingqing poured wine for Xi Jiuchen first.
Tang Zhixia couldn't help but secretly tugged on Xi Jiuchen's sleeve, and Xi Jiuchen naturally leaned towards her.
"Drink less, you have a bad stomach, don't get stomach trouble again." Tang Zhixia said with concern.
A smile filled the man's deep eyes, "Ms. Tang, are you caring about me?"
Tang Zhixia glanced at him. At this moment, she saw another elder standing up next to her father. Tang Zhixia's heart skipped a beat. Wouldn't everyone around her father want to toast Jiuchen for a drink?
After all, he has a noble status, and these people will know that he is a frequent visitor to the wine table just by looking at his eight-month-old belly. And in the culture of the wine table, cups should be served to the rich first, and people with status are the targets of toasts.
,So, Xi Jiuchen became the target of their toast tonight.
"Xi...Mr. Xi...I'm not very good at talking. I also want to toast you and wish you a prosperous company and good health."
Xi Jiuchen probably didn't expect that he would be the toast tonight, but because they were all Tang Jun's friends, and Tang Jun was his intended future father-in-law, it was hard for him as a junior to offend others.
Xi Jiuchen stood up again, held the cup gracefully with his slender fingers, and raised it slightly, "Thank you, I respect you."
Tang Zhixia watched helplessly as this man drank another drink. She was really panicking. If the seven or eight elders at this table wanted to respect him one by one, he couldn't get drunk on the spot?
Moreover, this man's stomach was usually used to drinking high-end red wine and foreign wine. The beer on the table now was just a few dollars a bottle bought in the market. She was really afraid that something would happen to this man if he drank like this.
"Master Xi, it's a rare opportunity to have a glass of wine with you at the same table. Come on, let's toast to you." Another elder stood up.
Tang Zhixia looked at Xi Jiuchen who was obviously drunk. At the wine table, if he didn't drink, the person toasting would feel looked down upon and disrespected. Tang Zhixia's mind got hot, so he picked up Xi Jiuchen's wine glass and said to the elder,
"Uncle, I'm sorry, Mr. Xi has a bad stomach. I'll offer you this cup on his behalf."
After saying that, when everyone was stunned, Tang Zhixia finished the glass of wine, then picked up the absent-minded man next to him and said, "Mr. Xi, don't you have something important to do? We should leave."
Xi Jiuchen blinked his phoenix eyes, but Tang Zhixia didn't care. He pulled out his chair and said to his father, "Dad, Mr. Xi and I have taken a step ahead. You guys eat slowly."
Before Xi Jiuchen could react, Tang Zhixia reached out and grabbed his arm and pulled him up, "Dad, uncles, please eat slowly. We have to leave beforehand."
"Hey..." Tang Qingqing shouted hurriedly.
When Xi Jiuchen was pulled through the banquet by this woman, he realized that this woman was afraid that he would get drunk and deliberately found an excuse to take him away! She even drank a glass of wine for him!
She really cares about him.
Finally, Tang Zhixia pulled him to the elevator door on the third floor. Chu Hao had just eaten. When he saw that the boss was leaving, he quickly took two bites of food and got up and came over.
"Mr. Xi, are you leaving?"
"He's been toasted all the time. I'm worried that he might have problems drinking. Chu Hao, why don't you take him back first!" Tang Zhixia said to Chu Hao.
Xi Jiuchen narrowed his cold eyes and shot them at Chu Hao, with obvious hints in his eyes.
Chu Hao deliberately raised his wrist to check the time, "I'm sorry, Miss Tang, but I can't send Mr. Xi home. My dad is hospitalized."
Tang Zhixia was startled, "Ah! Why don't you go quickly?"
"I'm going to the hospital now."
When the elevator reached the first floor, the three of them got off the elevator. Chu Hao quickly stopped the car and left. Tang Zhixia said to someone, "Where is your car?"
At this time, the bodyguard drove his car over, and Tang Zhixia opened the door and said, "Get in the car and go home!"
"You come with me." Xi Jiuchen grabbed her arm and prevented her from leaving.
Tang Zhixia saw that it was 7:40 and she had to pick up her son. She nodded and said, "Okay!"
Tang Zhixia got into the car from the other side, and Xi Jiuchen bent over and sat in. As soon as the door closed, the black car drove away gracefully.
At the dinner, Tang Qingqing was completely disappointed and had no appetite. No matter how nice she dressed, it was meaningless. Xi Jiuchen's departure also took away her heart and soul.
Kang Hao
In the carriage, the atmosphere was a bit stuffy, and there was still some alcohol odor floating in the air. Xi Jiuchen took off his suit jacket, pulled off his tie, and unbuttoned the first three buttons of his shirt to dissipate the heat.
Tang Zhixia turned around and glanced at it. The handmade shirt with excellent texture showed off the man's tight and strong arm lines. Under the collar, the sharp collarbone was also half hidden and half visible. Coupled with the man's sexy and blurred eyes at this moment, he exuded a sense of radiance.
A kind of gentle scum temperament.
"Go home! I'll take a taxi to pick up Chenchen later." Tang Zhixia said to him.
"Why don't you take care of me?" Xi Jiuchen narrowed his phoenix eyes and looked at her.
Tang Zhixia looked at him speechlessly, "Aren't you okay? Why should I take care of you?"
"Who said I'm fine? I'm a little drunk now and a little uncomfortable." Xi Jiuchen deliberately pretended to feel weak.
But to be honest, the beer was churning in his stomach, making him really uncomfortable.
"What's wrong with you?" Tang Zhixia immediately looked at her with beautiful eyes.
"Drinking on an empty stomach is the worst for your stomach. Don't you still have some stomach medicine at home? I'll go over and take two tablets." After Xi Jiuchen finished speaking, she told the bodyguard in front of her her home address.
Tang Zhixia didn't have time to refute, she was a little annoyed and said, "You can buy this stomach medicine anywhere, why should you go to my house? Doesn't it exist at your house?"
"I want you to take care of me." After Xi Jiuchen finished speaking, he leaned back on the chair and closed his eyes, but his eyebrows were kept tightly knitted.
