Bai Xiao pursed his lips and felt that he could not afford to lose face. Hence, he reached out and wanted to pull Zhang Rong up. “I’m sorry, Boss Wen. He’s drunk. I’ll take him away.”

Unexpectedly, even though Zhang Rong was drunk, he was still an agile drunkard. He dodged Bai Xiao’s hand and hugged Wen Huai’s arm.

“Boss Wen, please do me a favor and call Fox over. My Brother Bai really needs her.”

“Brother Bai can’t taste anything but he can taste her alcohol.”

“Do you know how painful it is to eat without taste! My Brother Bai has endured it for more than ten years! He finally found something that he can taste!”

“It’s really painful to not be able to taste! Boss Wen, I beg you to ask Fox over!”

The more Zhang Rong howled, the louder he became. In the end, he actually started crying. However, even so, he still refused to let go of Wen Huai’s arm. He begged Wen Huai to call Fox over with snot and tears.

The veins on Bai Xiao’s forehead bulged. He tried to pull the drunkard away, but how could a drunk person be a reasonable person?

Zhang Rong had already forgotten that Bai Xiao was present. He thought that the security guards had come to pull him away. As he waved his hand to chase them away, he shouted for Fox to save his Brother Bai.

The three of them were in a deadlock in the private room. No one could get rid of the other.

Bai Xiao did not expect Zhang Rong to be like this when he was drunk. He did not participate in social gatherings between the descendants of aristocratic families. Now that he was facing a drunk lunatic, he did not know what to do. He could only stand at the side.

Fortunately, Wen Huai’s phone rang. When Wen Huai saw the message, it was as if she had seen her savior. She struggled to pull her arm out of Zhang Rong’s arms, but when she turned around, her leg was hugged again. Wen Huai was both angry and amused as he patted Zhang Rong’s head and said, “Alright, let go of me. You guys are lucky today. Fox sent me a message to say that she’s coming over.”

When Hu Ke woke up, it was already nighttime. She saw the message from Wen Huai on her phone and pondered for a moment, indicating that she wanted to go to 1943 for a face-to-face meeting.

Wen Huai’s text message had already analyzed the pros and cons for her. Looking at the assumed future income, Hu Ke could not help but be tempted. She still had a little money in her hands. If she invested with Wen Huai, she could probably get 2% of the shares.

Half an hour later, Hu Ke arrived at 1943. Wen Huai did not let her go straight to the private room. Instead, she arranged for the waiter to take her to a private room.

Hu Ke looked at Wen Huai in confusion, not understanding her intentions.

Wen Huai finally managed to escape from Zhang Rong’s clutches. She hurriedly went forward and pulled Hu Ke to ask, “Dear, does Bai Xiao know that you know how to mix alcohol?”

A huge question mark appeared on Hu Ke’s head. She knew that Bai Xiao had investigated her background, but Bai Xiao probably did not know that she knew how to mix drinks. Otherwise, he would not mock her every time he saw her at the bar.

Hu Ke shook his head at Wen Huai. He looked at Wen Huai and heaved a sigh of relief. He pulled her to the elevator. “It’s good that he doesn’t know. Some time ago, he went crazy and asked me for Fox’s contact information. I didn’t dare to tell him that it was you. Today, Zhang Rong came to tell me about the investment. In the end, Bai Xiao also came. Zhang Rong was drunk and insisted that you mix the alcohol. It’s fine as long as you fool him. I’ll go up and see the two of them first. I’ll look for you after I’m done.”

Hu Ke nodded and took the elevator to the cellar.

The cellar was specially prepared for Hu Ke. Hu Ke was well protected by her parents before anything happened to her family. Even Hu Lai did not know that she knew how to mix alcohol.

At that time, in order to avoid trouble, she specially asked Wen Huai to prepare a room for her to mix alcohol. In order to better store the alcohol she needed, she simply chose a cellar with a suitable temperature and humidity. Now, it was also convenient for Hu Ke to hide her identity to avoid being discovered.

Hu Ke was busy mixing drinks in the cellar, and Wen Huai had returned to the private room to deal with the drunkards.

Originally, when Zhang Rong heard that Fox was coming, he wanted to go with Wen Huai to welcome the bartender.

Wen Huai immediately threatened, “Fox doesn’t like strangers. If you come uninvited, you will be blacklisted.”

Only then did Zhang Rong obediently stay in the private room. As soon as Wen Huai returned, Zhang Rong leaned over and looked at her eagerly, like a puppy waiting for its master to give it a bone.
