Chapter 17: I'm not afraid of anything, what are you afraid of?
Such a proud son of heaven, probably no woman can remain unmoved.
Suddenly, the two people's lines of sight converged together. He was also looking at her, seemingly not expecting that she would come too. The smile at the corner of his mouth decreased by half.
Shu Xiao Ai withdrew her gaze, she stretched out her hand and finished the champagne in one gulp, cup after cup, drinking who knows how many, when the ceremony was about to end, she got up and went to the restroom.
Turn on the faucet, wash your face, and wash off the makeup. Looking in the mirror, one side of my face has already swollen up.
Suddenly, in the mirror, a figure appeared behind her.
Shu Xiao Ai was startled and turned around abruptly, looking at him, "You're the protagonist of tonight's engagement party, it's probably not suitable for you to come to the ladies' restroom?"
Zhong Yuchen looked at her face, "My territory, I say it's suitable, who dares to say a word that isn't, who hit you?"
Shu Xiao Ai turned her face away, "None of your business, I'm going home."
Her body, which was about to run away, was held in his arms around her waist. She had no choice but to lean against his chest and look at his face, making Xiao Ai feel a little suffocated.
"What are you doing, Director Zhong?"
He burst out laughing, "What's going on? You're all sleeping together in the same bed, what is this?"
"Tonight is your engagement ceremony, are you treating her fairly, your fiancée?"
Zhong Yuchen smiled lightly, "What's wrong with apologizing? Engagement, marriage, in my eyes, it's just like eating and going to the bathroom. In this game, you've already lost your way out. Don't provoke me again, the price you can't afford to pay."
He bowed his head and kissed her trembling lips, pressing her against the washbasin, warm as fire, scorching her heart.
Shu Xiao Ai's eyelashes fluttered, "Zhong... Zhong Yu Chen... don't do this, someone will come to the bathroom soon, if we're seen, it won't be good..."
He looked at her with a calm and leisurely expression, "I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of?"
Shu Xiao Ai hummed, "I'm already married."
"I know."
He pulled out a set of car keys and handed them to her, "Take these, go wait in my car."
I'm going home now.
"I'll be back later." He flashed a faintly sarcastic smile, and then the keys were thrust into her hand.
Shu Xiao Ai held the key and as soon as she left the Zhong's house, she took advantage of the fact that there were no people at the entrance, and waited in the back seat of his car.
After waiting for about half an hour, he came out.
He got on the car and turned back, "Give me the key."
Shu Xiao Ai hastily handed it over, he inserted the key and drove away from here.
The car drove on, Shu Xiao Ai saw him not speaking and she also remained silent. Zhong Yu Chen looked at her from the rearview mirror and asked, "It's still early now, it won't be late if we head back home at 10 o'clock."
"Hmm." Shu Xiao Ai's mood wasn't great, "Isn't engagement supposed to start in the daytime? Why are you starting it at night?"
"Just a formality, do you know Song Lin Cang?"
"Otherwise, you think I'm here at the engagement party because of you?"
"At first, I really thought so."
Shu Xiao Ai opened the car window and let the cool breeze blow on her face.
"I didn't have to do that, and I don't think we have any special relationship."
"We've all been together for a while now, but we still don't have any special relationship. What does it take to be considered as having a special relationship?"
"You... " Shu Xiao Ai's voice dropped a few degrees colder, "Don't you think that having a special relationship with me is the same as any other? Actually, President Zhong, our relationship would be better off ending like this. It's for the best for both of us. To be honest, I find it quite embarrassing. I'm already married, although this happened before your engagement, but now that you're engaged, it's better not to continue. You don't need to get entangled with a married woman like me. What do you think?"
