Chapter 437: 437: Celebration Banquet, She May Have Disturbed Them! (Third update)
The first audition after the temporary hiatus of the “Hall of Heaven” and the countdown for the grand finale, even before the viewership results came out, already started creating a buzz.
There were endless comments from the netizens under the show:
“It completely changed my perception of Yin Qin!”
“Please allow me to apologize to Yin Qin, I didn’t realize your true worth!”
“I came here out of curiosity, now I can’t bear to leave!”
“Wu Qifeng, you opened my eyes to a different side of you today! Keep it up, I believe in you!”
“Anyone else think the costumes tonight were amazing! Every single one seemed so lively!”
Tons of comments.
The comments section was still buzzing long after the program ended, with comments crazily increasing.
All members of the project team were gathered in a massive private room, engrossed in the comments on their phones. The exquisite banquet spread in front of them seemed less enticing than the comments, even though they were all starving after the live broadcast.
“I really feel like crying.” Newcomer Liu Qian had teary eyes.
At that moment, they were genuinely touched by their efforts and the results obtained.
“Me too,” chimed another emotional female coworker.
“Can’t you guys be a bit more ambitious? This is just the first round, we still have four more tough battles to fight. Don’t be so quick to assume you’ve won!” Xie Mao couldn’t help pouring cold water, but at that moment, he was truly excited beyond belief.
Yin Qin said, “Indeed, this is a cause for celebration. At least for today, we can say we’ve won. As for the next four rounds, as Xie Mao said, they will be a tough battle. But that shouldn’t stop us from celebrating this time. Eat and drink whatever you want tonight, tomorrow...”
Everyone looked at him expectantly.
“Tomorrow, come to work on time.” Yin Qin emphasized each word.
“Ugh, even the chairman is playing dirty!”
“In any case, those who believe they can wake up in time for work tomorrow, eat and drink to your heart’s content. Those who lack confidence, just watch the rest of us doing so. Come on, let me propose the first toast to thank you all for your hard work these two weeks.” Yin Qin stood up.
Everyone else also stood up.
The atmosphere immediately became lively.
Ji Baixin was also among the crowd.
Yin Qin had invited her to the dinner party tonight, and she came.
She didn’t drink much because she never liked drinking and the culture around it, she felt averse to it on the inside. She didn’t expect that Yin Qin’s drinking party would be entirely different from the business gatherings she had been to before. He was able to mingle with everyone without any regard for status, and even establish brotherly bonds.
By the end of the night, everyone was huddled together chatting. Even employees who normally didn’t speak much were brazenly scolding Yin Qin, saying that the stress from their work during this period was so great that they had cried in their beds many times, almost falling into depression!
Everyone ended up drunk.
Ji Baixin thought she might be the only sober one.
She glanced at the time and asked the waiter to settle the bill.
If they continued like this, they would likely drink until it was time to work the next day.
As Yin Qin had just said, there are still several rounds to go. They couldn’t completely let loose just because of one victory.
Ji Baixin paid the bill and asked the luxury hotel staff to arrange special cars to take everyone home.
Most people were drunk as skunks, the whole process of seeing them off was a bit like a melodramatic farewell scene.
Finally, after everyone else had left, only Yin Qin was left, still clutching a bottle of wine and talking nonstop, “I knew I, Yin Qin could do it, I knew when I clean up I’m intimidatingly handsome, burp...”
Ji Baixin was speechless.
No matter what, Yin Qin could never change his goofy personality.
She stood up to help him.
At this point, Yin Qin was so drunk that he had no strength left, so he threw all his weight onto Ji Baixin. She struggled a bit under his heavy weight.
“Yin Qin, you’re really heavy!” Ji Baixin couldn’t help but complain.
Yin Qin opened his eyes and looked at Ji Baixin, “Ah, it’s Baixin! Baixin, what are you doing here? Umm, I need to stand up. Baixin doesn’t like me getting too close...”
So she didn’t wait.
She went to sleep.
At that moment, outside the villa gate.
Ji Baixin suddenly seemed to come to her senses and pushed Yin Qin away abruptly.
She was quite forceful.
Yin Qin abruptly awoke.
He opened his eyes and looked at Ji Baixin in a daze.
After what seemed like an eternity, he recognized her, “Baixin, what are you doing here?!”
Ji Baixin’s face was very red, as if she had been drinking.
As far as Yin Qin knew, Ji Baixin never touched alcohol.
Don’t mind that.
His head throbbed painfully.
Ji Baixin said, “I’m drunk and ended up at your doorstep.”
Yin Qin turned to look.
Ji Baixin had already left the passenger seat.
Yin Qin got out of the car.
The moment he stepped out, the world spun and he swayed, nearly falling flat on his back.
Ji Baixin swiftly moved up to support him, “Don’t get yourself this drunk again, you can’t even walk straight.”
Yin Qin didn’t reply.
He was afraid that he would vomit if he opened his mouth.
He had his pride as Mr. Yin.
At that moment, Ji Baixin didn’t say anything more, she just helped Yin Qin into the villa.
It was very late, and the villa was silent.
Ji Baixin, step by step, with Yin Qin, climbed the stairs and helped him to his room.
Luo Xiaolang had heard them from a distance, but she still lay in bed, not moving a muscle.
Ji Baixin helped Yin Qin onto the bed.
Ji Baixin fumbled to turn on the light and saw Luo Xiaolang lying there, seemingly asleep.
She almost forgot the fact that Yin Qin and Luo Xiaolang were together, so when she saw Luo Xiaolang, she was momentarily stunned.
Luo Xiaolang, due to the light, opened her eyes.
She looked at Ji Baixin.
Ji Baixin looked at Luo Xiaolang.
Ji Baixin quickly said, “Xiaolang, I brought him home for you, he’s drunk, take care of him for the night, I’ll leave now.”
Luo Xiaolang didn’t reply.
Ji Baixin also felt a bit awkward, so she forced a laugh and said, “I’m leaving.”
Then, she walked out of the room.
She didn’t know what she was feeling, but when she closed the door, she felt a pain in her heart.
She gritted her teeth and left.
“Ji Baixin.” Someone called her.
Ji Baixin turned around to see Qin Keqin standing there in her pajamas.
