2397 Twins
“Come on, Weiyang!” Boss Jia said.
Seeing this, the director could not continue persuading him.
Everyone could tell that there was something fishy going on between him and Zhao Xinshu. They wanted to speak up for Qiao Weiyang, but they could not afford to offend Boss Jia, so they could only let it go.
Qiao Weiyang looked at Boss Jia’s wine glass indifferently and said, “Boss Jia, I’m not a big drinker, so I won’t drink.”
“Qiao Weiyang, it’s rare for Boss Jia to come here. Even if you don’t want to drink, just have some.” Zhao Xinshu continued to persuade her.
“Since you like it so much, why don’t you help me drink it?” Qiao Weiyang retorted.
Zhao Xinshu’s face immediately turned red. Since they were in public, she did not retort.
Boss Jia heard Qiao Weiyang’s rejection, but this made him want to conquer her even more. He laughed and said, “Miss Qiao, I have a friend who’s preparing for a new movie recently. They need an actress who can drink very well. I’ll treat you to a drink. I don’t have any other motives. If you can drink, I’ll recommend you for the audition. There are many opportunities ahead of you. What do you think?”
His words sounded dignified.
However, anyone could tell what he meant. He wanted Qiao Weiyang to drink with him in the name of lending resources.
When ordinary female celebrities encountered such a thing, it was really difficult for them to have the confidence to reject the offer.
Seeing that this was really too much, the director was about to speak up for Qiao Weiyang when Su Zhuoqian slowly said, “Since Boss Jia wants someone to drink with him so badly, why don’t I drink this glass of wine on Weiyang’s behalf?”
Boss Jia was stunned. The glass of white wine in his hand seemed to be a little hot. Su Zhuoqian’s intention to protect Qiao Weiyang was too obvious.
How could he force Su Zhuoqian to drink this glass that was full of strong wine?
“Hmm? Or am I not worthy of Boss Jia’s wine?” Su Zhuoqian slowly stood up. His words were resonating to begin with, and when he stood up, he had a rather oppressive aura.
Boss Jia glanced at him, then at Qiao Weiyang. He guessed that Su Zhuoqian must have taken a fancy to Qiao Weiyang. He was secretly annoyed that he did not realize this sooner.
He quickly said, “I know that President Su is busy with work and usually only drinks a little red wine. This white wine… Forget it, forget it. I shouldn’t have invited Miss Qiao to accompany me like this. Come, President Su. I’ll treat you to red wine.”
He picked up a glass of red wine and handed it to Su Zhuoqian. His attitude became even more respectful than before.
Su Zhuoqian’s expression was indifferent, and there was no emotion in his eyes. Looking at the red wine that he handed over with both hands, he seemed to have thought of something and said, “You’re right. I’ve been busy with work recently. I shouldn’t drink.”
With that, he sat down without looking at Boss Jia again.
This was no different from slapping Boss Jia in the face in public and trampling him on the ground.
If it were someone else, Boss Jia would have flipped the table on the spot.
However, this was Su Zhuoqian. Everything he did was right. Boss Jia had spent countless efforts to contact him to facilitate a collaboration. How could he dare to offend Su Zhuoqian?
He smiled sheepishly and said, “Indeed, alcohol is not a good thing. I won’t drink tonight either. Attendant, serve me another drink.”
Qiao Weiyang tilted her head and glanced at Su Zhuoqian. She suppressed her laughter and gently touched Su Zhuoqian’s foot with hers.
Su Zhuoqian reached out and held her fingers under the tablecloth. No one could see this hidden interaction between them.
Amidst everyone’s laughter, they expressed their love.
After Boss Jia was slapped in the face, the scene became much more normal. The entire production team looked down on him and Zhao Xinshu. At the same time, they felt that Su Zhuoqian was a good person.
Actually, everyone was gathered here for work. Everyone hated Boss Jia, who was full of himself. If not for his status, no one would be willing to eat at the same table as him.
The scene was very lively. Qiao Weiyang and the other main creators carried their drinks to the other tables and toasted everyone. They politely thanked everyone for their hard work and cooperation for so many days.
Zhao Xinshu finally found an opportunity. She held a drink and walked in front of Su Zhuoqian. Her laughter was very sweet. “President Su, thank you for coming to our wrap party today. Let me toast you with this glass of water. Please guide me in the future.”
As she spoke, she displayed her charisma to Su Zhuoqian. Her laughter was sickly sweet as she leaned slightly toward Su Zhuoqian. It was as if she wanted to lean her entire body against him and take the opportunity to make physical contact.
Su Zhuoqian did not take the glass and said lightly, “I’ll have a beverage.”
Zhao Xinshu: “…”
Zhao Xinshu said, “Then I’ll get someone to get mineral water for you immediately.”
“If you like it, you can drink all the mineral water in the hotel tonight.”
Zhao Xinshu: “…”
Anyone could tell what Su Zhuoqian meant. Zhao Xinshu had thought that her charm could completely win him over.
The others found it a little funny. Zhao Xinshu’s dignity was thrown on the ground, and she couldn’t even pick it up.
She had clearly seen the others clink glasses with Su Zhuoqian, and Su Zhuoqian did not reject them, nor did he despise them. His attitude was very good.
But when it came to her…
She didn’t realize that Su Zhuoqian didn’t have a problem with everyone else because they were socializing normally. Even if he wanted to express his support to Qiao Weiyang, he would just show the others a standard level of politeness.
She had approached him with bad intentions, so why would he care about her?
The others held back their laughter and remained silent. Watching Zhao Xinshu’s performance for the entire night was really funny and exciting.
Zhao Xinshu returned to her seat and held her breath.
When no one was paying attention, Su Zhuoqian looked at Qiao Weiyang with an expression that said, ‘Aren’t I very obedient?’ His expression was the same as Xiao Bao’s and Jingyun’s.
He had always been cold and noble. It was rare for him to have such an expression. Occasionally, he would reveal an obedient expression that was even more tempting.
Qiao Weiyang found him so adorable, but she couldn’t reach out to rub his face in front of so many people. She could only rub his fingers in a place where no one could see.
Su Zhuoqian held her fingers and caressed her fingertips.
Qiao Weiyang picked up a bottle of lemon tea and placed it in front of him. “President Su, have some lemon tea.”
“Alright.” Su Zhuoqian picked it up and took a big sip.
Zhao Xinshu: “…”
When Su Zhuoqian refused her, it might be because he really didn’t want to drink. But he ended up drinking the beverage Qiao Weiyang handed him.
This could be considered a direct slap in the face.
Zhao Xinshu and Boss Jia had each been humiliated once, so they could not stay any longer. After bidding farewell to Su Zhuoqian, they said that they had something to do and had to leave.
As soon as they left, the entire scene became comfortable for some reason. Everyone relaxed.
Even with Su Zhuoqian sitting here, no one felt any pressure. They relaxed and drank while laughing.
