After ten minutes or so, someone thought of He Fei.

“Why is Ah He taking so long in the restroom? Don’t tell me he doesn’t dare to return and continue drinking?”

With that question, Xiang Wei seemed to have recovered her senses. She stood up with a jump.

Everyone looked at her with a strange gaze.

Ouyang Ming smiled and said, “Xiang Wei, what are you doing?”

Xiang Wei’s expression darkened. She turned towards the man who mentioned Hei Fei and asked, “How long was He Fei in the restroom?”

“Around ten minutes or so?”

Xiang Wei’s expression had a drastic change. She ran in the direction of the restroom at once.

Everyone looked at each other and hastily followed along out of worry.

Lu Jingye and Zi Yi were the only ones who remained in their seats.

Zi Yi looked at Lu Jingye and asked, “Since you’re a Young Master in the Capital, why are you repairing cars in S City?”

Lu Jingye stared at the glass in her hand. He did not explain that the garage did not belong to him and instead, he reciprocated with a question. “I believe you aren’t of age yet?”

“Hmm?” Zi Yi was baffled by the sudden question.

Lu Jingye pointed at the alcohol in her hands. “Underage youths should drink less.”

Zi Yi maintained silence for two seconds. If Lu Jingye were to encounter something uncontrollable in the future, what reactions would he have, based on how serious and rigid of a person he was?

When she thought of this, she directly raised the glass and sat closer to him.

The faint fragrance of a woman accompanied by an alcoholic aroma floated past his nose. Lu Jingye looked at her with an expression of disapproval.

Zi Yi smirked while traces of craftiness flashed across her eyes. “It’s stated that I’m already of age on my identity card.”

Lu Jingye looked at her.

The next second, she suddenly raised the glass to her lips and deliberately said, “In fact, my real birthday is in September… Since you disapprove of my drinking habits, why don’t you drink this glass on my behalf? If you drink this, I’ll refrain from drinking tonight.”

Lu Jingye’s pitch-black eyes looked into her eyes.

Perhaps it was due to the few glasses she drank, but Zi Yi’s face was flushed red. Her originally charming phoenix eyes, together with a layer of alcoholic luster made her look beautiful and charming, like a spirit that seduced others. It made it hard for a person to shift their gaze away.

Lu Jingye went quiet.

“Lu Jingye.”

When he heard her calling his name, his eyes darkened. He had unexpectedly blanked out earlier.

He looked at the young lady who obviously acted deliberately. He took the glass from her hands and emptied the contents in one shot under her slightly surprised gaze.

He then put down the glass and said, “Remember your words.”

Zi Yi slightly parted her lips.

This man had actually drunk it!

In the end, she came to this conclusion: This man must be extremely boring in every area of his life.

Lu Jingye tilted his head and looked at her, his eyes were as calm as still waters.

Just then, loud movements could be heard from the restroom’s direction. It appeared as if the door was kicked open.

Shortly after, they saw a man running out in panic as he said in a loud voice, “Something happened to Ah He!”

After he said that, he turned towards Zi Yi.

She stood up from the sofa and asked, “Did something happen to my cousin too?”

That man was shocked by the aura she radiated and hastily nodded. “That’s right. Someone spiked Ah He and your cousin’s drink and in the restroom, they…”

Under Lu Jingye’s gaze, that man did not dare to complete his sentence. In the end, he said, “You better head over and take a look.”

Zi Yi wanted to leave at once. However, she was stopped by Lu Jingye.

“Give your family a call first.”

Zi Yi turned back, looked at Lu Jingye who stood up with her, and was surprised.

“Since someone deliberately schemed against He Fei and your cousin, this matter will become a big deal sooner or later. Let your family members come forward to resolve it.”

Zi Yi thought about it and nodded. She then took out her phone and gave Zi Xu a call.
