At the bar.
Wen Tao watched Xiao Yaojing drowning herself in alcohol. He wanted to persuade her not to but changed his mind as she most likely would turn a deaf ear.
Deep inside, Wen Tao was vexed and regretted asking her.
“Don’t drink anymore. You really think your stomach is made of steel?” Wen Tao took the glass from her hand and placed it on the table.
“I don’t understand. Am I incomparable to Yezi? It has been so many years. Why is he still unable to let Yezi go?” Xiao Yaojing rested her head on the bar table and looked at Wen Tao in a daze.
Wen Tao did not know how to answer Xiao Yaojing.
“I—I’m not inferior to Yezi in terms of appearance, right?” Xiao Yaojing grabbed PA Wen by the collar, clearly drunk.
Overwhelmed by the smell of alcohol on her breath, PA Wen wanted to take a step back but Xiao Yaojing had her hands on his collar. The distance between them was too small.
Xiao Yaojing and Ye Yuwei were considered on par with each other. Ye Yuwei was the gentle beauty. She didn’t dress up, but ever since she came back, she had a soothing aura around her. She wasn’t eye-catching, but her beauty grew on people.
Xiao Yaojing was different. She was the head-turning type of beauty. Her beauty penetrated one’s soul.
“Master Lu’s life can be considered saved by Young Mistress,” PA Wen comforted.
“But Yezi loves Gu Juexi. From the beginning she was only in love with him.” Xiao Yaojing shook PA Wen vigorously. “She is in love with the man who had saved her, the one who had carried her out of the fire.”
PA Wen was at a loss for words. He wasn’t at the scene after all.
Master Lu was the first one who discovered Young Mistress and Young Mistress was the one who had saved him. She didn’t escape on her own. She shouted and waited for someone to save Master Lu.
But the person who turned up at the end was the CEO.
“You’ve drank too much. Let’s leave.” PA Wen paid the bill and proceeded to help Xiao Yaojing up.
“I’m not drunk, I’m not drunk.” Xiao Yaojing struggled out of PA Wen’s grip.
PA Wen hastily tried to regain his grip on her and took her away from the bar.
“Why don’t you like me? Why?” Xiao Yaojing lost her balance and fell onto PA Wen and pinned him against the car. “I’m asking you, why don’t you like me?” Xiao Yaojing hiccupped while asking.
PA Wen’s heart skipped a bit. Looking at her so closely, his heart rate sped up.
He knew Xiao Yaojing was drunk.
The person she mentioned wasn’t him.
“You’re drunk. I’ll send you home.” PA Wen held her arm and pushed her away to open the car door.
Xiao Yaojing was unable to support herself and leaned against Wen Tao’s shoulder. She mumbled the same words again under her breath. PA Wen who was engrossed in trying to open the car door with Xiao Yaojing’s dead weight on him did not catch the words coming out of her mouth. The name she mumbled was Wen Tao.
Wen Tao opened the car door and helped Xiao Yaojing lay down in the backseat before removing his coat and gently covering her with it. As he was getting up, he was entranced by her fair skin.
Because of the alcohol, her fair skin carried a tinge of redness. PA Wen removed his hand from her back before lowering his lips to hers .
