Chapter 675: I Don’t Drink
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
After the discussion with Cui Changxin about cooperation, everyone left.
Cui Tong followed Xia Xibei and Pan Yan back to the hotel while Cui Changxin took the car and left.
Back at the hotel, Xia Xibei removed her makeup and took a shower. Taking out her phone and looking at it, she dialed a number.
“Beibei.”
Qiao Yanjue’s magnetic voice came out from over there.
Listening to the noises on the other end, Xia Xibei asked, “You haven’t gone back yet?”
“Almost,” Qiao Yanjue smiled. “How was your day?”
“It went well,” Xia Xibei laughed lightly. “How about you?”
“It went well for me too.” Qiao Yanjue smiled back. “I’m almost done here, then I’ll be back in G City in a few days.”
“In a few days, my scenes will be finished, and I’ll have to go back for my exams.”
The two of them talked about their recent situations, and then Qiao Yanjue changed the subject.
“You’re having dinner with Cui Tong today?”
“Well, there’s also Cui Tong’s big brother.” Xia Xibei answered honestly, raising an eyebrow. “Did you see the news?”
Qiao Yanjue was suspiciously silent for a moment before admitting, “I just did.”
“The four of us had dinner together today. Me, Brother Pan, Cui Tong, and her big brother.”
“Oh.” Qiao Yanjue hemmed and was just about to say something when a voice came from next to him.
“Yanjue, what are you doing here? Everyone’s looking for you.”
Xia Xibei’s ears were sharp and she instantly recognized the owner of the voice.
Li Weiyun? Why was she there?
Qiao Yanjue also frowned, “I’m talking to Beibei.”
At those words, Li Weiyun’s smile froze.
“Brother Jue, who is it?” Xia Xibei pretended to be curious.
“It’s Li Weiyun. She’s here too and we just happened to b.u.mp into each other,” Qiao Yanjue explained.
“Oh.” Xia Xibei’s voice was unconsciously a little sour. “Such a coincidence.”
“I didn’t think it would be such a coincidence either,” Qiao Yanjue explained seriously. “But our businesses don’t really intersect. We just happened to run into each other.”
On the side, Li Weiyun couldn’t help but bite her lip, her previous happiness suddenly evaporating.
Qiao Yanjue’s words were too hurtful.
Looking at the tenderness on his face, her heart hurt even more.
“Oh, I see,” Xia Xibei nodded. “Have you eaten?”
“I did.”
“Have you been drinking?”
“No, I told them that I’m allergic to alcohol,” Qiao Yanjue laughed lightly.
With his status, as long as he didn’t want to drink, no one else could force him to do so.
Li Weiyun’s face became even more ugly.
Where did Qiao Yanjue get his alcohol allergy? He could drink a lot!
However, he didn’t drink, which was obviously for Xia Xibei’s sake.
Thinking of this, Li Weiyun’s heart seemed to be seized by a hard grip.
“It’s best if you don’t drink.” Xia Xibei gave a delicate hum. “When one drinks, it’s easy to have accidents.”
Alcohol was not a good thing. Moreover, Li Weiyun was still nearby. If he got drunk and lost his virtue… That would be too disgusting.
“Don’t worry, I don’t drink,” Qiao Yanjue a.s.sured her.
“Well, it’s good that you behave.” Xia Xibei nodded and urged him, “Go back and rest, it’s almost ten o’clock.”
“Okay, I’ll go back now,” Qiao Yanjue promised.
The two of them talked for a while longer before Qiao Yanjue hung up the phone.
Only after hanging up the phone did Qiao Yanjue look at Li Weiyun.
“You haven’t left yet?”
Those words dealt her another fatal blow, and she blanched for a moment, but then she pulled the corners of her mouth.
“I’m ready to go too.”
“I’ll go back first then.”
Qiao Yanjue nodded at her and turned around, ready to leave.
Li Weiyun’s mouth moved, but she couldn’t speak.
