“Which bottle do you want to drink?” Lu Yuanzhi spoke through his clenched teeth.

Jiang Xinxin, on the other hand, was very pleased with herself. She pointed at a bottle casually.

In fact, she did not know much about wine. It was just that she always drank with the elders at home, so she did not know that she had chosen the most expensive bottle casually.

Lu Yuanzhi was not worried about the alcohol. He was mainly worried that Jiang Xinxin would get drunk and pose a threat to his personal safety.

“Let’s make it clear first. You can only have one drink,” Lu Yuanzhi said.

Jiang Xinxin felt that he was stingy. No matter what, she was a huge potential partner of their entertainment business, and he was only giving her one drink.

But this was okay. She thought that at least he was not chasing her away anymore.

Speaking of which, this business deal seemed really sullen, as if she was rushing it.

“Miss Jiang, is it?” Lu Yuanzhi personally took the bottle and poured half a glass for Jiang Xinxin. He said politely, “Now, Miss Jiang, can you tell me why these copyrights are in your hands?”

Jiang Xinxin took a sip and said matter-of-factly, “These books are all made by me. Don’t you know that?”

Lu Yuanzhi really did not know.

He had done his homework before coming into contact with this industry. He knew the name Jiang Xinxin, but his knowledge was only limited to her professionalism.

Jiang Xinxin was a legend in the IP world. Any book that she handled would be popular!

But he did not know that the copyrights of these books was all hers.

“I can’t say that it’s mine. It’s more accurate to use the word ‘cooperative management’,” Jiang Xinxin said, “I’ve loved reading novels since I was young. I bought ‘The Family of Gold Diggers’ when I was fifteen. It wasn’t that popular then.”

Therefore, the price was quite affordable.

Lu Yuanzhi raised his eyebrows. He had underestimated this girl before.

“Later on, it increased by many times. Many people wanted to buy it, but I never thought of selling it. I’m waiting for a fated person.” Jiang Xinxin looked at him. “President Lu, do you think you were fated to meet me?”

When she said this, her tone was a little frivolous.

Lu Yuanzhi had never been teased in such a tone before.

“Why?” Lu Yuanzhi took a sip of wine. “You’d like to sexually harass me in the workplace, Miss Jiang?”

Jiang Xinxin was at a loss for words.

This person… She thought to herself, ‘What kind of environment raised him and gave him such a bad personality?’

‘Do you understand flirting?’

Workplace sexual harassment? He made her sound like a greasy uncle.

“You’re thinking too much.” Jiang Xinxin could hear it. It was not that he did not understand, but he understood too much. This meant that he was deliberately treating her this way.

Jiang Xinxin put away her casual attitude and spoke seriously to Lu Yuanzhi about the adaptation of the novel. The book was so popular that the copyright fee was actually secondary, what was more important was the subsequent derivation and other resources that it might attract.

Because Jiang Xinxin had more than one top-tier IP in her hands, she was not short on money now. She could just settle down for a few more years, so she was not in a hurry.

However, Lu Yuanzhi was obviously not in a hurry.

He was not the kind of person who was controlled by others. From the moment Jiang Xinxin showed that she wanted to use these novels to approach him, he had already given up the idea of buying these books.

Jiang Xinxin was very smart. She knew how to turn a novel into a top-tier IP, but it was also because of this that whoever had the capital to support could become a top-tier IP — someone like Lu Yuanzhi, would not go to the extent of selling himself to a little girl just to save some money.

Therefore, after Jiang Xinxin finished half the glass of wine, he was going to chase her away.

However, Jiang Xinxin only drank a few mouthfuls before she gradually felt that something was wrong.

“Did you turn on the air conditioner?”Jiang Xinxin fanned herself with her hand. “Why do I feel… so hot?”

Her face was abnormally red, like the sunset on the horizon, so beautiful that it was scorching.

Lu Yuanzhi frowned and took her wine glass. He put it to his nose and sniffed it, and his expression suddenly changed.

This wine…. was actually drugged!
