Chapter 299: How Do You Want To Punish Her?
However, Fu Xiuyuan hadn’t listened to them, making them exhausted. Last time, Fu Xiuyuan chased them out, causing them to not dare to return for half a year.
He Ziheng had gooseb.u.mps and said, “Ah, who asked Boss to be the boss? We’ll give him another chance.”
“That’s not right.” Lan Tian, who had been sitting quietly to one side, spoke up. She had thin eyebrows and small eyes, but her small face was very bright and beautiful. “I heard from Sister Lotus that Boss has a new girlfriend? Is she a doctor or something? I think she’s from Xin Si!”
Qiao Zhuoli raised his brows and said slowly, “You believe that? What can Fu Xiuyuan not do for s.h.i.+ Jin? Sister Lotus hates her, so Fu Xiuyuan naturally has ways to hide it from her and not let Sister Lotus cause trouble with her.”
“If only Sister-in-law was really Doctor Si! s.h.i.+ Jin is really a scourge! I couldn’t control her in the past, but now that she’s in the entertainment industry, won’t it be even harder to control her?” He Ziheng sighed and said.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud bang from outside the door, followed by the sound of footsteps. Then, someone turned around and left.
He Ziheng immediately slapped his forehead. “This is bad!”
He opened the door and rushed out. Sure enough, he saw Fu Xiuyuan’s cold and stern back as he walked out. Obviously, he had heard He Ziheng’s last words, so he did not even bother to come in and was leaving without stopping.
“Boss! Boss!” He Ziheng rushed out.
Seeing that he was in trouble, Pei Junyi couldn’t help but run over as well.
Lan Tian asked fearfully, “Uncle Qiao, what should we do?”
Qiao Zhuoli looked up and slowly took out a cigarette, twirling it in his fingers. “Let them soothe him. Where’s the lighter?”
“It was taken by Brother Heng.” Lan Tian shrugged. “I’ll ask the waiter to get one for you.”
Since Fu Xiuyuan was not coming back, s.h.i.+ Jin was definitely not coming either. Neither of them thought that smoking was a problem.
Lan Tian raised her hand and pressed the service bell. “Send a lighter to Room 1088…”
Before she could finish speaking, Fu Xiuyuan’s tall figure appeared at the door of the private room. His usually cold features did not show impatience or aloofness, but there was a hint of gentleness… and a hint of l.u.s.t?
Lan Tian’s gaze subconsciously s.h.i.+fted to s.h.i.+ Jin, who was beside him. She was wearing a light blue silk dress, which made her look elegant yet playful. Her long hair was draped over her shoulders.
There was a smile on her face, beautiful and amiable. Her eyes were filled with kindness, unlike the impatient expression she had shown in the past.
“May I know what this VIP wants?” A waiter’s voice came from the service buzzer.
“Oh, nothing. Everything’s fine now.”
He Ziheng and Pei Junyi, who were following behind Fu Xiuyuan, were also dumbfounded. When the two of them had chased after him just now, they had already predicted that tonight’s gathering would probably end in failure.
He Ziheng was so regretful that he slapped his own mouth. Why was his mouth so loose that he couldn’t control it?
Unexpectedly, when the two of them chased after him, s.h.i.+ Jin had said something to Fu Xiuyuan gently. Then, Fu Xiuyuan had turned around and come back!
If not for the fact that the occasion and timing were not right, He Ziheng would have asked s.h.i.+ Jin what exactly she said!
No… what she said didn’t seem important. Maybe what was important was the person who spoke?
He Ziheng was jealous.
Everyone was dumbfounded. s.h.i.+ Jin took the initiative to greet them. “h.e.l.lo, everyone.”
He Ziheng and Pei Jun s.h.i.+vered. Could she be up to something again?
Lan Tian paused.
Qiao Zhuoli coughed lightly and put the cigarette back into the box.
Lan Tian reacted the fastest and greeted her sweetly, “h.e.l.lo, Sister s.h.i.+ Jin! Why don’t you sit beside me?”
Lan Tian was only 16 or 17 years old. She had entered Fu Xiuyuan’s circle of friends because she had a good relations.h.i.+p with Fu Heyan.
Compared to others, s.h.i.+ Jin had been the most mischievous in the past. She had never really tricked her. Her fear of s.h.i.+ Jin only existed in other people’s gossip. Now that s.h.i.+ Jin was beautiful and sweet, she could accept her better than anyone else.
s.h.i.+ Jin was quite fond of such young ladies. As soon as Lan Tian spoke, she was about to walk towards her when her arm tightened and she was stopped from moving.
s.h.i.+ Jin looked down and saw Fu Xiuyuan’s palm on her arm.
“s.h.i.+ Jin, sit with me.” He was domineering.
He Ziheng laughed. “Anyone can sit anywhere. Sit, sit, sit! Today is really unusual! Everyone is here!”
Fu Xiuyuan was obviously still unhappy after hearing He Ziheng’s words. His eyes were cold and unapproachable, and he did not respond.
He Ziheng sensed something and took out a bottle of red wine. “Why do I spew so much nonsense? I’ll punish myself with three gla.s.ses! I’ll punish myself immediately!”
“Are you sincere in drinking?” Fu Xiuyuan spoke. His voice was mellow and pleasant to the ear, but it carried a trace of displeasure.
He Ziheng loved drinking like he loved life. How could drinking be a punishment?
He Ziheng put down the red wine awkwardly. “Boss, how do you want to punish me?”
“Drink some water.” Fu Xiuyuan thought for a while, his long fingers lightly tapping the table. “Three cups.”
He snapped his fingers, and a moment later, a waiter brought three cups of water over.
The gla.s.ses weren’t big, just enough to hold a bottle of beer. 500 milliliters per cup.
Well, that wasn’t bad either. However, for someone like He Ziheng, who only wanted to drink when he went to a bar, after drinking three gla.s.ses of water, he did not have much stomach capacity to drink anything anymore.
This was the most infuriating thing ever!
He Ziheng had a bitter expression. Lan Tian and Pei Jun couldn’t help laughing at his misfortune.
The atmosphere instantly relaxed.
Fu Xiuyuan raised an eyebrow and looked at He Ziheng. Then, he closed his eyes and stopped looking at him.
He Ziheng had no choice, but to force himself to drink the water.
It was not hard to drink water, but it made He Ziheng regret drinking so much.
He was used to drinking and downed the water quickly. After three gla.s.ses, his stomach was full.
He turned the gla.s.s upside down. “Boss, I’m done drinking.”
Fu Xiuyuan lifted his eyelids, indicating that he understood. He Ziheng knew that he had made a mistake and humbled himself. “s.h.i.+ Jin, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean it like that just now. I apologize.”
“I’ll accept your apology.” s.h.i.+ Jin smiled brightly.
Her tone didn’t carry the bad intentions from before, and it was graceful and charming.
Everyone was stunned.
It wasn’t like they didn’t know that she was currently popular, and it wasn’t like they hadn’t seen her on screen before, but no one had ever seen s.h.i.+ Jin like this before.
s.h.i.+ Jin continued, “It’s been a long time since we last met, right?”
