On the other side, Zhang Xiaoya returned to the banquet hall angrily and came to the side of the banquet’s host, Qian Yang. She quickly put on a pitiful look and gently held Qian Yang’s arm with her body leaning into his embrace.

Qian Yang was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed when he suddenly saw the beautiful woman in his arms. He felt tantillized and his eyes were filled with lust. His hands started to become a little naughty. He lifted the hem of her dress from behind and was about to put his fingers in when Zhang Xiaoya hurriedly tried to reject him. She gently pressed her hand against his and lowered her head to pretend to sob softly.

Qian Yang stopped what he was doing and couldn’t help but feel puzzled. He hurriedly asked Zhang Xiaoya about the reason. Zhang Xiaoya told Qian Yang about how Lin Chaoyu beat her up. After saying that, she even pretended to be aggrieved and wiped her tears. “It’s alright. After all, you’re the host of the banquet. It’s alright for me to feel aggrieved.”

The chauvinism in Qian Yang’s heart was immediately aroused. “A mere mistress dares to hit my woman?!” Looking at the woman crying in his arms, he vowed to stand up for Zhang Xiaoya.

At that moment, Lin Chaoyu had just returned to the banquet hall when she found an inconspicuous seat and sat down. She told the bodyguard that she wanted to be alone and would sit there without moving around. The bodyguard could also tell that this woman was in a very low mood. He wanted to say something, but didn’t. Then, he turned around and reported the situation to Tang Pengze. Lin Chaoyu was already in a bad mood, so Zhang Xiaoya’s appearance made her even more frustrated.

At this moment, a pair of men’s leather shoes appeared in her line of sight. Lin Chaoyu looked up and saw a man in a white suit standing in front of her. This man was Qian Yang.

Qian Yang’s attention was attracted by Lin Chaoyu’s exquisite face as he looked down. Her curvaceous figure caused his throat to tighten and his lower body to heat up. However, he began to think of something else.

Lin Chaoyu felt uncomfortable under his gaze. She said impolitely, “Mister, please move aside!”

Qian Yang sat beside Lin Chaoyu and leaned back. “I heard you hit my girlfriend?”

When Lin Chaoyu heard this, she immediately reacted. This person was the boyfriend that Zhang Xiaoya was talking about, Qian Yang. She didn’t want to be entangled with him, so she stood up and prepared to leave. However, just as she stood up, the bodyguards around Qian Yang surrounded her. Lin Chaoyu could only sit down and say, “Young Master Qian, please get this straight. Your girlfriend insulted me first.”

“You’re just a mistress. It’s fine if you get scolded, but if you hit my girlfriend, it’s the same as slapping my face. Of course, I, Qian Yang, am not an unreasonable person. Drink this bottle of wine and I’ll pretend that nothing happened today.” As he spoke, Qian Yang took out a bottle of red wine with a high alcohol content and placed it in front of Lin Chaoyu.

Lin Chaoyu didn’t want to cause any trouble for Tang Pengze. After pondering for a while, she picked up the wine glass and poured herself a glass. She lifted her slender neck slightly and drank it in one gulp. It was her first time drinking such a high alcohol content red wine, and Lin Chaoyu couldn’t help but feel a slight burning sensation in her throat. She got drunk very quickly.

Just as she was about to pour the second glass, a pair of strong hands stopped her movements. She looked up and saw that it was Tang Pengze. His tightly shut lips revealed that the man was not feeling very happy.

When Qian Yang saw Tang Pengze, he immediately stood up and stretched out his hands to bend down slightly. His expression immediately turned into one of flattery. Unexpectedly, Tang Pengze didn’t appreciate his kindness and didn’t even look at him. “I wonder how my woman made Young Master Qian unhappy?” Tang Pengze spoke. His cold and emotionless voice startled Qian Yang. He immediately turned to look at Lin Chaoyu.

This was Tang Pengze’s woman…! At this moment, Lin Chaoyu looked at Tang Pengze. After she finished drinking, her gaze was slightly seductive, which aroused Tang Pengze even more. The woman didn’t realize that after she finished drinking, her lips were slightly moist and her blush was very alluring.

Qian Yang quickly said, “President Tang, I didn’t know this was your woman. If I had known, I wouldn’t have dared to touch her.”

Tang Pengze sneered and signaled the bodyguard. The bodyguard understood and immediately dragged Qian Yang away! As Qian Yang screamed in fear, he looked at Lin Chaoyu. He had seen how alluring she looked when she drank too much. He quickly took off his jacket and covered the woman. Then, he carried Lin Chaoyu and left the banquet while completely forgetting about Lu Xi, who was beside him.

Lu Xi had never seen Tang Pengze so concerned about a woman before. She watched the two of them leave. “Lin Chaoyu… just you wait!” Lu Xi’s red lips parted slightly, and a trace of hatred flashed across her eyes..
