119 Where’s My Cigarette?

Yao Zizhou’s hand rubbed Ming Liuyi’s earlobe.

Although Yao Zizhou’s eyes were closed, Ming Liuyi felt that there was a faint sadness there.

The distance between the two of them got closer and closer, and Ming Liuyi felt that if Yao Zizhou used a little more force, they would kiss.

Although Yao Zizhou really wanted to kiss her, there were so many people around, and he did not want to perform a kiss in front of them. He quickly calmed himself down, and a smile appeared on his face again.

Yao Zizhou gave Ming Liuyi a light kiss, and leaned close to her ear, his voice full of temptation as he said, “You didn’t bring me a cigarette? You only took the gift?”

Ming Liuyi felt numb from the onslaught of Yao Zizhou’s teasing and the light peck from earlier. This feeling quickly traveled to her ears and back, and all the hair on Ming Liuyi’s whole body was standing on end.

The band had sung for a long while, and it was time for the two performers to go off-stage to take a break. Yao Zizhou only leaned away from Ming Liuyi after the music had stopped.

Shen Rui beckoned the performers over to eat something. They nodded, and after they got off the stage, neither of them spoke much.

“I’m going for a smoke over there,” the girl said as she stood up. Ming Liuyi immediately looked at the girl and also stood up. The girl was speechless.

Ming Liuyi said with an embarrassed look, “Can I have a cigarette?”

The performer glanced at Ming Liuyi and casually took out a stick. She handed it to Ming Liuyi and then walked away, as if he didn’t want to be disturbed.

Ming Liuyi thanked her and immediately gave the cigarette to Yao Zizhou. Ming Liuyi said, “Here, the cigarette you wanted.”

Yao Zizhou sniffed the long and thin lady’s cigarette, and said, “It’s a good cigarette, but it’s not time for me to smoke yet.”

Ming Liuyi was dumbfounded.

One moment he wanted to smoke, the next moment it was not the right time. ‘Why is he so fickle, he changes his mood even faster than the weather!’

However, she had already brought it to him. It would be rude to return it at this point. It would also be rude if he did not smoke it. Ming Liuyi was at a loss on what to do with the cigarette.

Mr. He saw that something was wrong and immediately said, “Madam, leave the cigarettes to me. I’ll handle it.”

Ming Liuyi did not know this, but Mr. He did—the president never accepted such things from outsiders.

Even the madam personally went to get it from someone, one must remember that Yao Ziyang was also in Xinghai City, and he always used underhanded tactics. At such the critical moment, no complications were allowed!

Ming Liuyi praised Mr. He in her heart. In front of Yao Zizhou, only he could keep the situation under control.

The female performer returned after her smoke break.

The chef served the meat. Ming Liuyi gave Yao Zizhou a skewer, and they started eating again.

The two members of the band had a simple meal and soon stood on the stage again to continue their performance. The girl’s fingers played deftly on the electronic keyboard. Her aura was not hidden by the vocalist, and the two of them worked together perfectly.

After eating a few bites of barbecued meat, Ming Liuyi felt that it was a little greasy. She casually took out a bottle of juice from the ice bucket, poured it into a glass, and drank more than half the glass in one go. The taste of the passion fruit was cold and delicious!

Yao Zizhou felt something was wrong and asked, “What are you drinking?”

Ming Liuyi replied, “It should be a passion fruit drink. It’s really good. Do you want to try it?”

“Take a good look. What is it?” Yao Zizhou said.

Ming Liuyi then picked up the bottle and looked at it seriously. She found that it was actually a bottle of passion fruit cider with an alcohol content of 4%!

Once more, Ming Liuyi was speechless.

“So that’s why I didn’t smell any alcohol! It’s only 4%! There shouldn’t be any problems!”

“Let’s change it to another drink,” Yao Zizhou said lightly.

“No need,” Ming Liuyi said, “I’ll finish this, or it’ll be a waste.”

Yao Zizhou nodded and did not say anything.

While she ate, Ming Liuyi finished the rest of the cider in her glass.

Ming Liuyi had never drunk before. Although a glass of cider was not much, Ming Liuyi drank it quickly and nervously.

The power of alcohol revealed itself here. Ming Liuyi felt her face heat up, and her eyelids felt heavy.

“Madam,” Xiao Fan said, “Are you tired? Should we go back and rest?”

Ming Liuyi shook her head and said, “No, I’m not tired. I can still go on!”

Yao Zizhou reached out and touched her forehead… and found that it was a little warm. He raised his hand and called Shen Rui over.

Yao Zizhou said, “My wife has drunk too much. That’s all for today. The fee will be the same.”
