Li Bin fled the hotel in a hurry, stopped a taxi and was about to leave.
Suddenly, someone tapped him on his right shoulder, which startled him. He turned around and shouted, "Who is it?"
Zheng Yufeng looked calm and said, "Mr. Li, don't be afraid. I am President Lin's special assistant. Are you going back?"
Hearing Zheng Yufeng introduce himself, Li Bin's eyes were alert, "What do you want to do?"
"I have something on hand that may be able to help Mr. Li. Are you interested?"
Li Bin didn't know what kind of medicine this man was selling in his gourd. He looked unconvinced, "We don't know each other, why do you want to help me? And you are from Linxiluo. I can't believe it. Who knows this?"
Is this a trap he deliberately set to deal with me?"
Zheng Yufeng narrowed his eyes calmly, "Of course I can understand Mr. Li's concerns," and glanced coldly at the hotel door. He leaned into Li Bin's ear and said a few words in a very soft voice but clearly.
Li Bin couldn't help but widen his eyes after hearing this, "What..."
Zheng Yufeng shrugged and said nonchalantly, "If Mr. Li doesn't want to, then I can't do anything about it, but you will lose one and perhaps the only chance to bring him down."
Li Bin hesitated, "This...let me think about it."
"Then I will give Mr. Li three days. I hope to get a satisfactory answer after three days."
Zheng Yufeng watched as the taxi Li Bin was sitting in disappeared from sight, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, looking dangerous and mysterious.
**********Su Zhengliang stood alone in the corner, silently drinking the champagne in his hand, completely forgetting the fact that he had to drive back later.
In the distance, a familiar figure and his female companion were walking through the lively crowd, chatting animatedly with the guests.
A sadness that even he couldn't detect brushed across his handsome face. Su Zhengliang took another glass of champagne from the waiter and drank it all in one go.
The fragrant liquid poured down the throat, leaving an extremely spicy and bitter aftertaste wherever it went.
The cheerful and enthusiastic music, accompanied by people talking and laughing, kept echoing in his ears, making Su Zhengliang's swollen head begin to hurt.
After drinking several drinks in succession, the effects of alcohol began to show. Su Zhengliang felt hot all over and his consciousness began to blur. Putting down the glass, he approached the crowd as if by surprise.
Su Zhengliang staggered towards tonight's two protagonists. Vaguely, he felt as if he had stepped on something under his feet. Under people's surprised gazes and low voices, he fell forward.
Unexpectedly, he did not fall to the ground, but crashed into a broad and powerful chest.
Then, Gu Xinyi's extremely noisy shouts and the chatter of the guests came to his ears.
"Xi Luo, why is it this man again?"
"Who is this person? Why did he faint all of a sudden?"
"Is it another one here to cause destruction?"
Lin Xiluo helped Su Zhengliang up, smelled the smell of wine on his lips, and said lightly, "Everyone, please be patient. This guest just drank too much, nothing serious."
After Linsilo's explanation, people suddenly understood, and then the frozen atmosphere became active again.
Lin Xiluo turned around to take care of Xinyi and said, "Xinyi, take care of me first. I'll come back as soon as I've settled him."
Perhaps because of the ongoing turmoil at the engagement banquet tonight, Gu Xinyi pursed her lips in disinterest, with a look of displeasure on her face, but she still lazily responded and agreed.
Lin Xiluo supported Su Zhengliang and walked to the lounge next to him. Su Zhengliang was walking with difficulty. After walking a few steps, his legs went weak and he almost fell to his knees. Fortunately, Lin Xiluo held him tightly.
He lifted his shoulder so that he wouldn't fall.
He placed Su Zhengliang on the sofa in the lounge, called Li Sifan and asked him to drive over and take Su Zhengliang back.
Li Sifan embarrassedly told Lin Xiluo that something had happened to his car a few days ago and it was still parked in the repair shop.
Linxiluo didn't say anything more and hung up the phone.
After thinking for a while, he frowned and then dialed the phone again.
"It's me, You Shaoqi."
"Senior Brother You, I am Lin Xiluo."
The person on the other end of the phone heard Lin Xiluo's voice and said sarcastically, "On such a beautiful day with a beautiful lady by your side, why did President Lin think of me, my senior brother?"
Lin Xiluo spoke concisely and to the point, "Su Zhengliang is drunk. Come and take him back."
You Shaoqi said without hesitation, "I'll be right over."
Lin Xiluo put down the phone and stood by the sofa, looking at the man curled up in a coma in the corner of the sofa, a touch of sadness brushing his handsome face.
The slightly red cheeks due to the effect of alcohol are in sharp contrast with the pale skin. The faint dark circles under the eyes are more obvious under the light, and the smooth forehead is slightly wrinkled due to physical discomfort.
How many years had it been since he had seen him sleeping at such a close distance? Lin Xiluo didn't want to think about it anymore.
The familiar aroma of lemon and the faint smell of wine appeared and disappeared in the hair, following the flow of air, affecting Linciolo's sense of smell.
Slowly squatting down and leaning forward slightly, he stretched out his right hand and moved closer to the face that haunted him.
"Why... why do you want to get engaged..."
A low unconscious moan escaped from Su Zhengliang's mouth, causing Lin Xiluo to pause as he stretched out his hand in the air.
An imperceptible sourness gradually filled Lin Xiluo's face. He touched Su Zhengliang's wet eyelashes and sighed helplessly, "Liang, I'm sorry..."
Gu Xinyi stood outside the lounge, staring at the scene inside through the ajar door. The hand holding the wine glass tightened, and the delicate goblet instantly turned into a pile of broken glass and dots of dark red liquid.
, slipped from the fingers and stained the light-colored carpet red, making it particularly eye-catching.
**********After a while, You Shaoqi arrived.
He hurriedly walked into the lounge, and when he saw Su Zhengliang leaning on the sofa and breathing steadily, his heart dropped to the ground. He glanced at Lin Xiluo standing by the sofa thoughtfully, and You Shaoqi said nothing
Not to mention, he walked up to Su Zhengliang, leaned down and woke him up, "Zhengliang, wake up."
Su Zhengliang opened his eyes dizzily, "Shaoqi, why am I here..."
"You're drunk, come on, let's go back," You Shaoqi helped him up as carefully as possible and walked slowly outside.
Lin Xiluo stood by the sofa, saying nothing the whole time. He stared at the two people who were gradually moving away with complex eyes, and a thin mist gradually gathered in his black eyes.
You Shaoqi carried Su Zhengliang towards the gate, and happened to meet Zheng Yufeng walking towards him, "Mr. You, what a coincidence, we meet again. Are you here to attend the engagement ceremony too?"
You Shaoqi lowered his head and glanced at Su Zhengliang, "Su Zhengliang is drunk, I'm here to pick him up."
"That's it. It seems that Mr. You really cares about Mr. Su." Zheng Yufeng smiled meaningfully. "It's rare to meet Mr. You. I would also like to ask you how you think about it. It's a pity that it's on such an occasion.
