You must have saved the galaxy in your previous life!
"Do you love me?"
The thin light from the Italian crystal chandelier cast a layer of velvet halo on the man's face, making his facial features look more angular and profound.
Yu Shaoting looked at the woman with red cheeks and a gentle smile on his lips: "You are drunk."
Bai Xiao shook her head, and she held his hand: "I'm not drunk, I'm sober."
As he spoke, he pointed to the crystal glass at hand, which still contained half a glass of wine, as if to tell him that he hadn't drunk much.
"You're drunk." Yu Shaoting repeated firmly, poured a glass of water with one hand and pushed it to her.
I originally asked the question on a whim, but I encountered such a nonchalant attitude from him...
It feels like you won a five-million-dollar lottery, and you ran to the prize redemption office with your ticket in joy, only to be told that your ticket was fake.
Glancing at the glass of boiled water, Bai Xiaoden felt that his interest was waning, and he was slightly embarrassed. His original good mood had also lost a lot. He let go of Yu Shaoting's hand and didn't speak again until the waiter brought the food.
, holding his chin with his left hand, he turned his head and looked at the scenery outside the window, not even sharing the corner of his eye with the man opposite.
Different from her entanglement, Yu Shaoting looked as usual and cut the foie gras and swapped it with her plate.
"Thank you." Bai Xiao pursed her lips and said.
Yu Shaoting looked up at her and raised his eyebrows. Perhaps he didn't expect her to be so polite. He said lightly: "No need."
Bai Xiao lowered his head and poked the foie gras with his fork, but didn't take a few bites.
"Not to your liking?" Yu Shaoting suddenly asked.
Seeing his serious look, Bai Xiao felt a little more sure, maybe he didn't know what day it was.
She put down her fork, took another sip of red wine, and said, "I was full just now."
"Eat less roadside stalls in the future." He said while cutting foie gras: "Jing Xi has never eaten these things before, it is not good for the body."
Bai Xiao leaned on the back of the chair and looked at the man opposite. The cuffs of his white shirt were turned up several times, and the collar of the shirt was open. It lost the rigidity and rigor and gained a bit of leisurely elegance. And his unhurried and unhurried manner
His tone was like an elder lecturing a disobedient child.
She hummed perfunctorily, drank the red wine in her glass, and went to pour it, but he grabbed the bottle.
Bai Xiao didn't let go and was in a stalemate with him.
"Do you want me to remind you of your drinking capacity and quality?" Yu Shaoting forcefully took the bottle away and put it next to him.
I called the waiter and ordered a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice.
There were bright soft lights, red wine with an alluring luster, and a rose decorated on the table, but Bai Xiao had no romantic feeling at all. She took a straw and sipped the bottom of the cup, and she only ate two small pieces of foie gras.
Yu Shaoting just ordered another dessert for her, but it hasn't been delivered yet.
Yu Shaoting's cell phone rang.
Bai Xiao only glanced at him and continued to take a sip of orange juice, looking boredly at the ever-changing billboard outside the window.
Yu Shaoting answered the phone.
"Hello?" The low voice was full of magnetism: "Outside... eating... um... we'll talk about it later."
Bai Xiao didn't know who was calling, so he couldn't help but prick up his ears to listen, and then he hung up the phone.
Yu Shaoting put down his cell phone: "Jin Sheng and the others have opened a private room in the East Palace. Come with me after dinner."
His commanding tone made Bai Xiao subconsciously want to disobey him: "Go ahead, I'm a little tired and want to go back to sleep first."
Yu Shaoting didn't answer, just looked at her.
Bai Xiao immediately changed his indifferent attitude: "You are friends. If I go, they won't be able to let go, and it will be embarrassing."
"I said you would go." Yu Shaoting wiped his hands with a napkin.
"...Then just tell them that I'm not feeling well."
"What's wrong with you?"
"..."
It was clearly an excuse, but he insisted on forcing her into the corner. Bai Xiao pushed away the orange juice and said, "If I go, it will only ruin the atmosphere."
Naturally, his friends were about the same age as him, and since it was a men's party, her rushing to go with him like this would only make both of them uncomfortable.
Therefore, her unwillingness to go was not only out of anger with him, but also because of her own considerations.
Yu Shaoting's face immediately darkened, and he threw the napkin to the table without saying a word.
The atmosphere suddenly became cold.
Bai Xiao also sat there quietly, but her heart was tangled, what about the romance promised?
"Xiao Xiao, are you eating here too?" A familiar voice sounded behind him, Bai Xiao turned her head, it was Ye Hehuan.
Bai Xiao and Yu Shaoting did not choose separate compartments or boxes, but sat near the window.
One after another, several more people came out from behind Ye Hehuan, including Qin Shousheng. Bai Xiao vaguely guessed that it was a company dinner.
Ye Hehuan glanced at Yu Shaoting, who was sitting opposite Bai Xiao, with a sullen face and seemed unhappy. Of course, she didn't expect Yu Shaoting to stand up and shake hands with her. Most people couldn't control such a noble and cool man.
She chuckled twice, "Then you eat slowly, we're leaving first."
Bai Xiao pulled her lips, but she heard someone calling her: "Bai...Bai...Xiaoxiao!"
It was the big boy who cut Yu Jingxi's hair last time, the hairstylist named Xiaoyu, who was scratching the back of his head and looking at her with a blush.
Out of politeness, Bai Xiao nodded at him: "Hello."
Xiaoyu's face turned even redder, and the young man looked at Bai Xiao happily, unable to move his feet in embarrassment.
Qin Shousheng and Ye Hehuan looked at each other. Last time, Xiaoyu tried every means to find out about Bai Xiao from them. Later, he shyly asked Bai Xiao to meet. It is a good thing for the young man to be foolish, but it also depends on who the other person is. If he didn't see it,
At this moment, the principal is still sitting opposite Bai Xiao!
Qin Shousheng glanced at Yu Shaoting, and seeing that he didn't express anything, he hurriedly pulled Xiaoyu over: "Let's go, didn't you say you want to sing?"
"Xiao Xiao, do you want to go together?" Xiaoyu invited Bai Xiao.
Qin Shousheng smiled coquettishly, glanced at Yu Shaoting from the corner of his eyes, and said, "Look at this kid, don't you see that he is eating?"
With that said, he took Xiaoyu and started to walk out.
It was the first time that a young man fell in love with a girl so much, and seeing Bai Xiao's smiling attitude towards him, how could he want to miss such a good opportunity to get along with her?
Xiaoyu naturally noticed the man sitting opposite Bai Xiao.
Although he didn't say a word, his innate strong aura made it difficult for people to ignore his presence.
Xiaoyu saw Yu Shaoting's left hand resting on the table. It was slender and beautiful, with well-defined joints. There was a wedding ring on the ring finger, and he probably guessed his identity.
It should be the father of the child last time.
Yu Shaoting took a cup and drank water. He had just taken half a sip when a man stood beside him and stretched out his hand: "Hello, uncle."
Qin Shousheng covered his forehead, knowing something was going to happen. Ye Hehuan twitched the corner of his mouth, uncle...
Bai Xiao looked at Xiaoyu who was greeting Yu Shaoting respectfully at the table. He didn't know what to say for a moment and just looked at the man opposite.
Yu Shaoting raised his eyes and looked at Bai Xiao, not even looking at Xiaoyu, let alone shaking hands.
Ye Hehuan has come over: "Xiaoyu, what are you calling me? This is Mr. Yu of Donglin Group..."
Before he finished speaking, Yu Shaoting had already stood up, took the suit, and said to Bai Xiao, "Let's go, Jin Sheng is waiting over there."
Bai Xiao really didn't want to go to the East Palace, so he stood up and said, "I really don't want to go."
Yu Shaoting frowned.
Xiaoyu on the side took advantage of the opportunity and immediately stepped forward and said: "Uncle, why don't I send Xiaoxiao back, and you have to leave first."
Only then did Yu Shaoting look directly at the man who kept calling him "uncle". His thin lips were pursed tightly and his brows were furrowed. Bai Xiao saw him like this and knew that he was in a very bad mood at the moment. Her heartbeat was beating faster. Yu Shaoting had a bad temper.
, this Xiaoyu came to provoke him when he was still angry——
"What did you call me?" Yu Shaoting's deep voice.
Bai Xiao put his hand on Yu Shaoting's arm, trying to calm his anger.
Xiaoyu felt uneasy when he asked him. He didn't know where he had angered him. He looked at Bai Xiao blankly and moved his lips.
Before he called out uncle again, Bai Xiao spoke first: "No need to bother, my lover just drove by the door of my house and put me down."
"Love?" Xiaoyu thought he heard wrongly.
Bai Xiao took Yu Shaoting's arm and smiled at Xiao Yu: "Yes, the kid who asked you to cut his hair last time was my son."
Xiaoyu looked deeply shocked.
——————————
All the way out of the restaurant, Yu Shaoting pursed his lips tightly and tightened his jawline. He opened the passenger door and said: "Get in the car."
Bai Xiao stood still beside him without getting into the car: "I'll just take a taxi back. You go to the East Palace first."
She just said that Gemdale Arts and Donggong Shunlu were trying to trick Xiaoyu, just to solve the embarrassing situation at that time.
Yu Shaoting seemed to be in a stalemate with her: "Get in the car."
At the door of the restaurant, Ye Hehuan ran out. When he saw the two people beside the car, he tentatively shouted: "Mr. Yu..."
Yu Shaoting turned his head, with a sharp afterglow still in his eyes, and frowned, as if he was dissatisfied with her interruption, but he didn't look at her too much.
Ye Hehuan went to Bai Xiao and explained to Yu Shaoting what had just happened: "Xiaoyu is young and has just stepped out of society. He doesn't understand many things. What he just said was actually not malicious. He doesn't know that you and Bai Xiao are the same.
That being said, if I offend you, please forgive me and don't treat him like a little brat."
For a man like Yu Shaoting, if he is unhappy, one word can ruin his future.
This is not an exaggeration, but he is really capable of doing it.
Yu Shaoting glanced at Ye Hehuan, then looked at Bai Xiao: "Get in the car, I'll take you back."
Ye Hehuan couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing Yu Shaoting's behavior, he probably didn't want to argue with Xiaoyu and took the initiative to ask for help: "How about I send Bai Xiao back."
Yu Shaoting didn't answer, just looked at Bai Xiao.
Such stubbornness made Ye Hehuan take a look at Yu Shaoting. He pursed his thin lips, wore a black suit, and held the car door with one hand. He stood next to the Bentley Continental. His tall and slender figure made him stand out. The collar of his white shirt was open, with a small
The cuffs of the white shirt are exposed from the sleeves of the suit.
Such a look, coupled with such a figure and family background, is indeed rare in this age group!
"I will definitely send Bai Xiao home safely." Ye Hehuan added another sentence.
Bai Xiao smoothed her hair around her temples and said nothing, but Yu Shaoting seemed to know what she meant and said to Ye Hehuan, "Sorry to trouble you."
Ye Hehuan didn't expect him to be so polite, so he waved his hand quickly: "No trouble, no trouble."
Yu Shaoting closed the passenger door and walked around the front of the car to get in. The Bentley Continental quickly disappeared from the sight of the two of them.
Ye Hehuan pushed Bai Xiao's waist: "You must have saved the galaxy in your last life, and you have captured such a top-notch man."
Looking away, Bai Xiao sighed jokingly: "I'm just a little bit tempered."
"Don't be dissatisfied! No one in this world is perfect. Even though he has a bad temper, he is willing to lower himself for you, which shows that he cares about you from the bottom of his heart. If it wasn't in your way, he probably wouldn't even bother to look at you.
Give me a look."
"Have it?"
"Very good, isn't it?!" Ye Hehuan pointed at Bai Xiao's shoulder: "Just have fun, didn't you see the way Qin Shousheng looked at your man just now? It was like a jackal who had been hungry for three days and three nights.
When it comes to juicy and fresh prey, if you don’t like it, others will be queuing up to get it!”
——————————
Sitting in Ye Hehuan's car, Bai Xiao still sent a text message to Yu Shaoting: "Drive carefully."
no reply.
Bai Xiao called Qinyuan again and learned that Yu Jingxi was tired and had gone to bed, so he didn't go to pick him up and went directly back to Gemdale Art Garden.
After seeing off Ye Hehuan, Bai Xiao took a shower, watched TV for a while, and made a call to Yu Shaoting at almost ten o'clock.
The first call went unanswered.
Bai Xiao thought he might be busy and didn't hear, so he called again after about twenty minutes.
This time, I picked up the call, but it wasn't him. It was Lu Jinsheng, one of Yu Shaoting's friends, who said that Yu Shaoting had drunk too much in the East Palace.
Bai Xiao had an impression of Lu Jinsheng. The person who performed the surgery on her grandmother last time was Lu Jinsheng's grandfather or father. Hearing Lu Jinsheng say that the others were too drunk to drive, Bai Xiao asked him for his box number and said
Thanks, I hung up the phone, changed my clothes, and took a taxi to the East Palace to pick me up.
As soon as I got off the bus at the entrance of the East Palace, Lu Jinsheng's call came, and he said that he would go downstairs to pick up Bai Xiao.
Bai Xiao waited in the lobby for a while, and a handsome young man came out of the elevator, holding a mobile phone and jogging over with a smile: "Are you in a hurry?"
"I just arrived too." Bai Xiao smiled back.
When taking the elevator upstairs, Lu Jinsheng took the initiative to chat with Bai Xiao: "Is it difficult to get a taxi now?"
"Fortunately, the Gemdale Art Garden is quite a prosperous area."
"Actually, Third Brother rarely gets drunk. He might have been drunk by a few brothers today." Lu Jinsheng suddenly changed the subject and looked at Bai Xiao through the elevator mirror: "You guys had dinner together tonight, right? Originally, he changed the subject.
Third brother booked a private room here and said he would take you to have a meal with us..."
"Did he book the private room?" Bai Xiao was confused.
"Yeah, there were a few of us who called us this afternoon, eh? You didn't know?"
Therefore, Yu Shaoting deliberately wanted to introduce her to his friends today, but she mistakenly thought... For some reason, Bai Xiao felt weird.
If this was the case, why didn't he tell her and instead agreed to her eating in the restaurant? If he had known that this was the case, she would not have refused to come here all the time.
Entering the box, Bai Xiao saw several men about the same age as Lu Jinsheng playing dice. There was a faint smell of smoke inside, but it was not strong.
Seeing Bai Xiao coming in following Lu Jinsheng, they all looked over and stared at Bai Xiao for a while.
In the end, it was Bai Xiao who smiled at them first.
Among those people, she didn't see Yu Shaoting. Lu Jinsheng could see what she was thinking, "The third brother is over there! He drank too much..."
Bai Xiao looked in the direction of his finger——
In a dimly lit corner, on the sofa, Yu Shaoting was lying on his back, with his eyes closed and his brows slightly furrowed, as if he was drunk. His left arm was placed on his forehead. Bai Xiao went over and called him. Yu Shaoting was not asleep. He heard her voice.
He opened his eyes, his eyes were bloodshot, and he smelled a little heavy of alcohol.
He pinched his eyebrows, but he couldn't overcome the swelling pain in his temples, and his voice was a little hoarse: "Why are you here?"
"I asked my sister-in-law to come over." Lu Jinsheng came over, and the sister-in-law called out, which made Bai Xiao blush, "None of us can drive you back."
Yu Shaoting glanced at Lu Jinsheng indifferently, took the suit aside and stood up. He was a little shaken, and Bai Xiao hurriedly stepped forward to support him.
He looked down at her, silently but louder than sound.
Lu Jinsheng had already asked the doorman of the East Palace to stop the taxi and came out of the East Palace. Bai Xiao helped Yu Shaoting get into the car.
After Yu Shaoting got into the car, he leaned on the seat and closed his eyes to rest. It was obvious that he was very drunk. Bai Xiao turned to look at him, remembering what Lu Jinsheng said, she couldn't help but sit next to him.
Looking down at his hand on her lap, she held it and said, "I didn't know you invited them here specifically for me."
