Chapter 88: Chapter 89: Yangyang, you also pour a glass of wine for President Gu

Survival instinct told Xia Yangyang.

If she really sat next to Chen Yu, trouble would likely arise.

So, Xia Yangyang chose a spot farthest from Chen Yu and sat down.

From over there, Chen Yu complained, “Missy, you’re really not giving me face, but I like a woman with character.”

Xia Yangyang was so annoyed that she gave Chen Yu a dismissive eye roll.

What did he mean by ‘his woman’?

He shouldn’t speak nonsense at this occasion.

However, the people in their circle knew Chen Yu’s character, and his liking for flirting with actresses.

In this circle, they even regard being teased by Chen Yu as a bragging right.

So, they weren’t surprised by Chen Yu’s behavior. After all, in the movie, Xia Yangyang indeed played Chen Yu’s love interest.

Xia Yangyang secretly glanced at Gu Qichen. He had already turned to chat with Shen Shichuan, seemingly without much reaction.

Xia Yangyang breathed a sigh of relief.

Soon, everybody arrived, and the waiter began serving dishes.

Director Yang expressed his gratitude to Gu Qichen, which was nothing more than meaningless platitudes.

Then he lifted his wine glass and said, “Let’s toast to Mr. Gu, and promise to make a good movie at heart to thank him.”

Everyone else followed suit and raised their glasses.

Following that, the official dinner began.

Xia Yangyang found out that not many were really eating.

Most of them were offering toasts.

They toasted the director, Shen Shichuan, Chen Yu, and, of course, Gu Qichen, who received the most toasts.

There was an endless stream of women approaching him, one after another.

It had gone on for a few rounds already.

Observing secretly, Xia Yangyang noted that Gu Qichen had already drunk twelve glasses.

Why doesn’t he refuse? Xia Yangyang was a bit angry.

And every woman tried every possible way to linger around him for a longer time.

Xia Weiwei was offering a toast for the third time.

She walked up to Gu Qichen, her cheeks flushed and looking shy, “Brother Gu, I toast you again. I didn’t get a chance to introduce myself earlier. I am the daughter of Xia Liangdong and Liu Ruyan. My name is Xia Weiwei. I attended the birthday banquet of elder Gu before. Do you remember me?”

Gu Qichen responded indifferently, “Nice to meet you, Miss Xia, but I’m afraid I don’t really remember.”

Xia Weiwei felt a surge of joy. She hadn’t left a good impression on Gu Qichen at the banquet before, instead, Xia Yangyang had stolen her thunder.

Whenever Xia Weiwei thought of this, she hated Xia Yangyang even more.

However, it’s better that Gu Qichen didn’t remember her.

Xia Weiwei laughed, “I’ll drink first. Brother Gu, you can take your time.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Weiwei quickly drained her glass of red wine.

When she put down the wine glass, she pretended to sway a little as if drunk, then leaned towards Gu Qichen’s chest.

Everyone could tell that Xia Weiwei was not drunk.

This kind of maneuver was obvious to anyone with eyes.

However, before Xia Weiwei could lean on Gu Qichen, he had already stood and stepped back.

His swift and cool reaction, even his retreat, exuded an alluring charm.

Xia Weiwei missed him and almost fell onto the table.

A soft chuckle went around the table.

Xia Weiwei felt humiliated and somewhat humbled by her anger.

Gu Qichen stated, “Miss Xia seemed to have drunk too much, she should go back to rest first.”

Go back? You must be kidding. How could she leave early in this kind of gathering.

Xia Weiwei quickly forced out a smile, “Never mind, thank you for your concern, Brother Gu. I just need to rest for a moment.”

Having said that, Xia Weiwei returned to her seat, her fingers pinching the rim of the glass, almost breaking it.

At this moment, Shen Shichuan opened his mouth unhurriedly, “Yangyang, you have not toasted President Gu yet, right? Why don’t you offer him a toast as well?”
