So please leave me your comments .. you may get extra chapters ????

Back to the novel..

Inside the room, the light was dim. This was all too unexpected.” I am sorry I came in….”

She hadn’t even finished her statement when the drunk guy stood up, pulled her arm, and forced the glass to her mouth. “I came here to find fun, what is this attitude?”

The person seem annoyed, the volume of the music was lowered, the waiter approached them with a puzzled look

Unfortunately, inspite of the waiter trying to mediate on behalf of Yan Liang, the drunk held her chin. Thankfully, he was too drunk so Yan Liang took the glass from his hand, and in the blink of an eye threw the contents of the glass at him

This splash stunned the drunk.

The room was quiet in an instant, the music stopped, and a calm voice called out,”Turn on the light.”

The waiter immediately responsed, opening the door and turning on the overhead light

Yan Liang squinted her eyes to adjust to the brightness, then looked at the drunk who had red wine splashed all over his clothes. Deliberate footsteps approached her. The man’s cold eyes swept over her, his demeanour showing he was obviously unhappy, “What’s happening here ? “

Embarrassed , she looked at the person standing in front of her, a voice echoing in her brain , “ Always remember the purpose, try to keep smiling…”

She smiled, extended her hand and said, “Sir, how are you?”

His eyes were sharp like a knife. Yan Liang smiled modestly, “ I am the person in charge of Ya- Yan.”

Chapter 17

Lu Zheng looked at her, his expression softened from a moment ago, though still not kind. “ I heard Xu Jinfu’s younger daughter is bad news. Seems to be true.”

Seeing this confident woman was unlikely to apologise, Lu Zheng then turned to look at the drunk, half asleep man and said, “Sorry Director Zhang, if you do not mind, I will ask the waiter to accompany you to the next room and send your clothes for dry cleaning.”

Lu Zheng’s words completely woke him up, and he immediately stood up and rushed towards Yan Liang. But before he could reach her, he staggered, almost falling.

Lu Zheng, realising his intentions, had extended his arm to block his path, his action seemingly casual but so full of strength that the director staggered on impact and Yan Liang was saved.

“Zhang Director, I apologise on behalf of this girl”

Lu Zheng ‘s assistant had been waiting at the door for some time, catching his wink, he came forward. Lu Zheng put Director Zhang in his hands and said , “ Please take him back.”

And thus, he so easily settled the trouble stirred up by Yan Liang

Director Zhang left the room, the music continued to play, the rest of the people also resumed drinking. However, Lu Zheng was not going to invite Yan Liang to join them.

“Miss Yan, if I remember correctly, you were not invited today”, he said coldly, clearly hinting that she should leave. But Yan Liang was unwilling to take the hint, and said “Mr Zheng, it seems that you are not too busy now, can I take a few minutes of your time?”

Although this was phrased like a question, her face seemed to indicate this was more of an order than a request.

Naturally, Lu Zheng did not like that and flatly refused: “I am sorry, I am very busy. “

“You’re obviously free … …”

Seeing Lu Zheng’s annoyed face, Jiang Yu Nan’s advice again echoed in her mind and she immediately fell silent

“I can wait for the party to finish and talk to you after it is over.”

Clearly Lu Zheng wasn’t happy with that , but good manners prevented him from saying so.

“If you want…”

The waiter quietly opened the door for Yan Liang.With an embarrassed sideward glance, and a smile that was almost slipping, Yan Liang bade goodbye to Lu Zheng, “ Hope you have fun.”

She waited till almost two in the morning. It was embarrassing sitting in the sofa on the lobby.

From time to time, she saw her own dealers completely drunk as the waiters assissted them to the car. Of course, there were dealers who were still sober. Surprised at seeing her in the lobby, they asked, “Ms Yan? Why are you sitting here?”
