The moment the call connected, Lu Shijia immediately instructed: ”You personally investigate a girl called An Xingchen. I want all the information of her graduation from Yao City A University, especially the information about which hospital she was born in! The faster the better! ”
After ending the call, Lu Shijia waited for a while before returning back to his room.
Lu Shijia kept his phone, got up and looked at the time on his watch before saying to Gong Lingqian: ”It's almost the agreed time, we should be going.”
As he spoke, Lu Shijia seemed to have thought of something, as he looked at Gong Lingqian with a smile that was not really a smile and continued, ”Your alcohol tolerance has always been poor, and the people participating in the dinner tonight are all sly old foxes.
The Gong Family and the Lu Family were old friends and partners.
This afternoon, Lu Shijia and Gong Lingqian had a common meal to attend, so Lu Shijia came over to the Gong’s Group to wait for Gong Lingqian.
”It's fine. Let's go.” Gong Lingqian said and then left with Lu Shijia.
All of the people participating in this meal were men, so Gong Lingqian did not bring An Xingchen along, but only Cheng Hao.
An Xingchen was so happy that she had nothing to do. She buried her head in her papers and an entire afternoon passed in the blink of an eye.
The doorbell rang. As An Xingchen was hesitating whether or not she should go to Diting Courtyard to cook dinner for her, her phone suddenly rang.
It was Cheng Hao's number. Just as An Xingchen pressed the answer button, Cheng Hao's voice transmitted over: Miss An, Young Master Gong is drunk.
”Alright, I understand.”
After ending the call, An Xingchen took a taxi and headed straight to Diting Courtyard.
Taking the key that Gong Lingqian previously gave her to open the door, An Xingchen immediately went to the kitchen to prepare.
Just as he finished, Cheng Hao supported Gong Lingqian back.
Cheng Hao helped Gong Lingqian who was slowly walking over to the sofa to sit down, and when An Xingchen saw this, she immediately brought over the sobering soup.
It was probably because he was drunk that Gong Lingqian's handsome face was flushed red. He squinted his eyes slightly and leaned lazily on the sofa.
An Xingchen could not help but look towards Cheng Hao and ask, ”General Cheng … Young Master Gong is fine, right? ”
”It's fine, Young Master Gong's alcohol consumption isn't that high. He drank a few more cups of wine today, he's just a little drunk.”
After saying that, Cheng Hao continued, ”Miss An, I will leave this place to you.”
”If you need anything, just call me. I'll be going first.”
After Cheng Hao finished, he left without waiting for An Xingchen's reply.
In the huge villa, only An Xingchen and Gong Lingqian were left.
”Young Master Gong, are you alright? I've made the sobering soup, so you should drink first. ” An Xingchen said as she brought the soup in front of Gong Lingqian.
Hearing An Xingchen's voice, Gong Lingqian did not go and receive the Awakening Wine. Instead, he suddenly pinched An Xingchen's small chin with his large palm.
Gong Lingqian bent down and moved in front of An Xingchen. The two of them were extremely close, and their noses touched each other.
”An Xingchen?” Gong Lingqian stared deeply at An Xingchen.
