Reborn and fleeing for his life, he unexpectedly knocks on the door of the prince of Beijing's

Only then did Ding Sicheng realize that he was not hallucinating, and that the person in front of him was indeed Gong Xiaochen.

His flushed face turned ashen, and he trembled as he spoke.

"Young Master Gong, what brings you here?"

Gong Xiaochen still wore a faint smile, but deep within his sharp eyes seemed to lie two icy blades, chilling and piercing, exuding a hint of killing intent.

He snatched the wine glass from Ding Sicheng's hand and slammed it onto the table.

At the same time, Chen Ze called the restaurant manager and waiters to bring in four cases of red wine. The waiters skillfully used a corkscrew to open all 24 bottles, then took the wine glasses and began pouring the wine into them.

Ding Sicheng immediately sensed something was wrong and looked at Liang Fei across from him.

Liang Fei's face was even more unsightly than Ding Sicheng's. She stared straight at Gong Xiaochen opposite her, then glanced at Wen Shengsheng, her eyes filled with endless anger and jealousy.

After the wine was poured, a full glass of wine was placed in front of Ding Sicheng, the other two, and Liang Fei.

Gong Xiaochen lit a cigarette, exhaled a smoke ring, and then looked at the four people indifferently.

"Since you all love drinking so much, let me, the boss, treat everyone to some drinks."

The four of them were completely bewildered, exchanging bewildered glances, unable to figure out what was going on.

Clang!

A light tapping sound came from the seat of honor.

"Mr. Ding."

When the words "President Ding" were coldly uttered by Gong Xiaochen, Ding Sicheng immediately trembled, and then forced an extremely stiff smile onto his chubby face.

"Young Master Gong, you flatter me." With that, he picked up the wine glass, his hands trembling, and began to gulp down the wine.

The two men who had been following Ding Sicheng were already extremely nervous. Seeing that Ding Sicheng had drunk, they immediately picked up their glasses and started drinking as well.

In the end, only Liang Fei was left who hadn't drunk any.

Gong Xiaochen's cold gaze immediately swept towards her.

"What about you?"

Liang Fei's face turned deathly pale. The oppressive feeling that came over her was like a thorny vine tightly wrapping around her, as if she would be mercilessly strangled if she refused to obey.

But more than fear, she felt pain in her heart!

This man used to love and care for her so much, but now he's treating her like this for another woman.

Resentment, anger, and jealousy instantly welled up in her heart, scorching every inch of her soul.

However, under Gong Xiaochen's frosty gaze, Liang Fei still trembled as she picked up her wine glass and began to drink slowly.

The situation on the field suddenly reversed.

Wen Shengsheng, Pang Hui, and the remaining few conscious people had already stood by the wall, looking at each other with surprise in their eyes.

They looked at Gong Xiaochen and Chen Ze, puzzled.

It was impossible for four people to finish four cases of red wine. Before long, Ding Sicheng and the others were exhausted, their faces flushed, and large beads of sweat rolled down their faces.

But Gong Xiaochen did not call a halt.

They could only keep drinking, and ended up vomiting as they drank, with red wine spilled all over their necks and clothes. Coupled with their messy hair, they looked utterly disheveled.

When he first appeared in the private room, his domineering aura vanished without a trace.

The entire private room was filled with the strong smell of alcohol.

Gong Xiaochen casually smoked his cigarette, a playful smile playing on his lips, showing no intention of letting the four of them off the hook.

Liang Fei couldn't drink anymore and started retching and vomiting.

Gong Xiaochen lazily stubbed out his cigarette.

"okay."

The four of them stopped abruptly, their eyes glazed over, panting as they looked at him.

"I've already felt your sincerity, so let's leave it at that for today." He glanced at everyone and said coldly, "Remember, if you want to make money on my turf, you'd better behave yourselves. I don't tolerate any nonsense. If you dare to make any more moves, next time it won't be as simple as just having a few drinks."

Before the four could reply, Gong Xiaochen had already stood up.

"It's all gone."

After coldly uttering a sentence, he strode out of the private room.

As soon as he left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. No one dared to pay attention to the four people who were already dead drunk, and they all started packing their things and leaving.

Wen Shengsheng glanced at Liang Fei on the ground. She was like a dehydrated fish, panting heavily on the ground, with a few dry retching sounds mixed in.

Her body trembled and curled up as she retched, her former radiant beauty gone, she was utterly wretched.

If it were in the past, Wen Shengsheng might have softened and wanted to help her.

But today, she only had one thought in her mind: Serves him right!

As soon as Wen Shengsheng stepped out of the restaurant, she saw Gong Xiaochen's black Phantom parked on the side of the road.

She looked around and, seeing that her colleagues had all left, quickly opened the car door and got in.

A cool, cedarwood scent instantly enveloped her.

Wen Shengsheng relaxed a little. Just as she was about to speak, she saw that Gong Xiaochen had a cold face and a very low aura around him, making him seem like a stranger who should not be approached.

The words of gratitude lingered on her lips, but she quickly swallowed them back.

She hesitated for a moment, unable to figure out his thoughts, so she turned to look at Chen Ze driving in front of her.

She said softly, "Thank you for today, Assistant Chen."

Chen Ze stiffened slightly, then forced a dry laugh, "Miss Wen, please don't say that. It was Young Master Gong who helped you today. He happened to be nearby when you made the call; he was entertaining clients..."

"Shut up!" Gong Xiaochen coldly rebuked.

Chen Ze immediately shut his mouth.

Wen Shengsheng turned to look at Gong Xiaochen, blinked, and opened her mouth as if to thank him.

But Gong Xiaochen didn't look at her at all from beginning to end. Instead, he lit a cigarette and started smoking.

The Crown Prince's unpredictable mood kept Wen Shengsheng quiet, and she sat obediently, not daring to say another word.

After the three of them returned to Courtyard No. 7 in silence, Chen Ze left immediately.

Wen Shengsheng only realized what was happening when she came in and changed into her slippers.

Why did Chen Ze bring her here instead of taking her home?

Unless they already knew she lived here?

However, there is no doubt that Chen Ze and Gong Xiaochen have an unusual relationship. He knows about Su Rui's affairs, so it's not surprising that he knows about hers as well.

Thinking this, Wen Shengsheng relaxed again.

She took off her clothes, which were stained with alcohol, and put them in the washing machine. After taking a shower, she changed into her pajamas, feeling refreshed.

Gong Xiaochen hadn't said a word since returning home. Considering how timely he had appeared and dealt with those people today, Wen Shengsheng felt she should thank him.

She walked around and finally heard him making a phone call in the media room.

Wen Shengsheng gently pushed open the door to the home theater.

Gong Xiaochen hadn't changed his clothes yet. He was holding a glass of wine. In the dim light, his black shirt and black trousers, a pure black combination, perfectly showcased his competence and sharpness.

Wen Shengsheng discovered that Gong Xiaochen really had a preference for black.

However, black does suit him very well.

He seemed to be apologizing to someone, promising to treat them to a meal again and to treat them well.

Wen Shengsheng couldn't help but think of what Chen Ze had said in the car.

Although Chen Ze didn't finish speaking, Wen Shengsheng wasn't stupid.

It must have been when she called Chen Ze that Gong Xiaochen overheard her call, and fearing something might happen, he abandoned his original social engagements and rushed over.

Thinking of this, Wen Shengsheng couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

Just then, Gong Xiaochen's phone call ended.

"Young Master Gong, did something affect your social engagements today?" she asked softly as she walked in.

"I'm alright." Gong Xiaochen glanced at her, picked up his wine glass, and leaned back on the sofa.

Remembering that he had left in a hurry halfway through a social engagement, Wen Shengsheng asked again, "Have you eaten? Do you want me to make you something?"

Gong Xiaochen turned his head and looked at her.

"I only realized today that you and Chen Ze are quite close."

???

"Who?" Wen Shengsheng thought she had misheard and asked, "Assistant Chen?"
