Oops! The sickly Mr. Gu fainted again

Approaching 19 o'clock.

Ye Xingyao was standing in front of the mirror in the hotel, admiring herself.

The blue fishtail dress shimmered under the light, and the lines of her arms were outlined to be slender and graceful. The perfect design at the waist made her already slender waist even more charming. Her seaweed-like hair fell down, and the light made her face look more delicate and moving. Even she herself was immersed in the mirror.

I have to say, Ji Yan is really good at picking clothes.

When I went downstairs, I saw the familiar yet strange person at a glance. It was Ji Yan.

Ye Xingyao was shocked at this moment. After all, he was the brother she had a crush on when she was a child. Although she no longer had the childish feelings for him, she was still touched by the fact that she hadn't seen him for a long time.

"Yaoyao, you are so beautiful." Ji Yan had a sunny, clean and moving face. When he said this, he looked at her intently with his eyes curved, and a smile was clearly visible at the corners of his lips, emitting more and more of his warm feeling.

Then he opened the car door for Xingyao naturally and gentlemanly, and did not forget to put out his hand to shield her head from hitting the roof.

"Brother Ji Yan, long time no see." Xing Yao was slightly startled to see Ji Yan's friendly behavior, and then a smile spread across the corners of her eyes. She actually felt that Ji Yan was still the same Ji Yan.

The location of the cocktail party was not far away, only a twenty-minute drive away.

Ji Yan got out of the car again and opened the door for the lady. He also raised his arm, smiled at the girl, and motioned for her to hold his arm.

Ye Xingyao tentatively put her hand on him shyly and smiled back at him.

The smile in Ji Yan's eyes became more obvious.

The way these two people are now dressed is such a perfect match that everyone passing by can't help but take a second look.

Ji Yan was truly a celebrity. Before he even walked into the main hall, several big bosses came over to greet him. Ye Xingyao had no choice but to follow silently and smile back.

"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Qin. How can I compare with you? These are all the achievements of my grandfather," Ji Yan said modestly.

"That's impossible. Mr. Ji has won such a big project at such a young age. Now is your era. We old guys can't keep up. Hahahaha." Mr. Qin laughed and raised his glass to Ji Yan.

The drink hasn't even started yet, but Ji Yan has already drunk seven or eight cups in a row.

Ye Xingyao was shocked. It was the first time she felt that the cocktail party was a real one.

"Boss Qin, excuse me for a moment. I have something to do." Ji Yanhao offered another glass of wine to the other party without hesitation. He was indeed a veteran in this kind of occasion. His appropriate withdrawal not only gave the other party face, but also seemed natural and decent.

"Are you okay after drinking so much?" Ye Xingyao was a little worried.

After all, this is just the beginning.

"What? Are you worried about me?" Ji Yan knocked Ye Xingyao's head casually, just like he did when they were little.

"Don't worry, I can drink a lot. This little bit of wine is not enough to whet my appetite." Then he looked at the girl lovingly.

Ye Xingyao smiled at him, and then followed him forward.

The cocktail party finally opened with a waltz.

Under the dim light, Ye Xingyao followed Ji Yan's steps with clumsy steps. Fortunately, Ji Yan always followed her rhythm and pace, so that outsiders did not look so "amateur".

Ye Xingyao held onto Ji Yan nervously, her mind focused on which leg to take the next step. The dim environment and the flashing spotlights made it so that she could only see the person in front of her, but not anyone else. It was as if there were only the two of them on the huge stage.

However, she actually smelled that familiar scent.

It's the kind of clear tea flavor mixed with a hint of mint, as clear and sweet as mountain spring water.

Ye Xingyao was suddenly startled and quickly turned around to look around, trying to find the owner of the smell.

But after a few steps, the smell disappeared.

It's him. He's here? Xingyao is even more uneasy and nervous at this moment.

After a while, the dance music ended and the cocktail party officially began.

The cocktail parties of high-end bureaus are all resource bureaus, and elites from all walks of life take advantage of this occasion to build relationships and attract business. Ye Xingyao followed Ji Yan at this time and did not dare to act rashly, always maintaining her posture. But she looked at the table full of beautiful desserts with her eyes salivating.

At this time, there were three layers of people surrounding not far away. No one knew who was inside, but they were actually toasted by so many successful people.

Ji Yan was calm and confident, as if he knew who was there. He walked forward calmly and confidently with Xingyao.

"Mr. Gu has really come from far away. I'm sorry that the cocktail party was held in such a hurry. I wish Mr. Gu a smooth exhibition tomorrow." Mr. Ji hadn't arrived yet, but just his voice made people in the three layers of the room make way.

"It's not hasty at all. Thank you for your concern, Mr. Ji." After saying that, the two of them clinked champagne. While Gu Yuchen raised his head to drink, he lowered his eyes to glance at Ye Xingyao beside Ji Yan.

Wait! What's going on?

Ye Xingyao now has countless amounts of information competing with each other in her head.

Mr. Gu? What Mr. Gu?! The man who was cowering like a beast in front of her last night turned out to be such a key figure!

And why did Ji Yan say that the reception was hastily held, and why did Gu Yuchen say that Ji Yan took the trouble? !

Could it be that this cocktail party was hosted by Ji Yan?

Also! Why congratulate Gu Yuchen for tomorrow's exhibition? Isn't this cocktail party an additional event of the exhibition? How did it become Ji Yan's cocktail party and Gu Yuchen's exhibition?

Ye Xingyao was shocked.

No wonder he sent greetings early in the morning and delivered a suitable dress on time. It seemed that Ji Yan had arranged it in advance.

"Ms. Ye, nice to meet you again." Gu Yu took the wine glass that the etiquette lady had just filled, turned it slowly, and greeted politely.

"Yeah, what a coincidence!" Ye Xingyao was so shocked by the scene in front of her that she couldn't recover. She kept repeating in her mind: Oh my God, what is going on! What is going on?

"Haha, I didn't expect that Mr. Gu knew Xingyao, then I won't introduce them to each other." While speaking, Ji Yan affectionately tidied Xingyao's hair. Although he didn't say anything, he publicly stated to others that this is my person.

How could Ye Xingyao understand this? While she was still sorting out the huge amount of information in her mind, the two of them had already clinked glasses of wine three or four times.

Watching him drink glass after glass of wine neatly, Ye Xingyao remembered that he had a high fever and stomach cramps last night!

"Mr. Gu, this glass is my toast to you for giving me the opportunity to host a joint cocktail party." As he spoke, Ji Yan took the wine bottle from the etiquette lady next to him and filled it directly for Gu Yuchen.

Ye Xingyao then noticed that it seemed that before they had even said a few words, Ji Yan had already toasted Gu Yuchen several times. But he couldn't drink so much now, what if...

But Gu Yuchen still took the wine glass and drank it in one gulp without hesitation. He inadvertently exchanged glances with Ye Xingyao, then instantly withdrew his gaze.

"Mr. Gu has a really good alcohol tolerance. Today I specially brought high-quality stock from France. It's already chilled and waiting for Mr. Gu to come and enjoy it. Mr. Gu won't ignore me, will he?" Ji Yan snapped his fingers and saw the etiquette lady who had been prepared in the distance coming over with a bottle of wine tied with a ribbon.

Ye Xingyao pulled Ji Yan's elbow and told him firmly in her eyes not to drink anymore.

Even Ye Xingyao, who had never been to a drinking party, could see that Ji Yan was forcing Gu Yuchen to drink. But with the people around her making noises, she had no control over the situation.

"What's wrong? Yaoyao, are you worried about me? Don't worry, I'm fine." Ji Yan looked at Xingyao intimately again.

But Ye Xingyao's eyes stayed on Gu Yuchen. Champagne and red wine, and they were chilled. Could he really do that?
