Jin Xinghan looked away and told her who the other person was.
"That woman must be the lady of the Song family."
"The Song family? Is that Zhiruo's mother?"
Jin Xinghan shook his head, "But there is some connection. Her daughter and Song Zhiruo are cousins, their names are..."
Jin Xinghan couldn't remember the person's name for a moment.
"Song Ziling".
"Yes, that seems to be the name. What, do you know it?"
Tang Xia first shook her head, then nodded.
Then she smiled and explained, "Zhiruo just brought her over to say hello."
Upon hearing this, Jin Xinghan couldn't help but frown.
He advised, "Stay away from her."
Tang Xia couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Although it was easy to guess that Jin Xinghan wouldn't be too close to Song Ziling, wasn't his statement "stay away from her" a bit too obvious?
Tang Xia couldn't help but tease, "President Jin seems to know her quite well?"
For a moment, Jin Xinghan didn't know how to answer.
But after seeing Tang Xia's smiling eyes, he understood her thoughts.
He simply went along with her words and continued, "I wouldn't say I know anything about it, I've just heard about it."
Just then, Mr. Zheng, whom I had just met at noon, walked over with a wine glass in hand and a beaming smile.
"Mr. Jin, Ms. Tang, I was just too busy on my end, so I apologize for the delay."
Tang Xia quickly stood up straight and continued to maintain a polite smile.
"Oh, I didn't know Uncle Zheng was busy."
President Zheng waved to a girl not far away: "Yan'er, come here. Haven't you always wanted to see your Xinghan brother? Why are you shy now that you've seen him?"
The girl hiding behind the Roman column heard her father call her name and immediately hid again.
Mr. Zheng was somewhat exasperated: "You're already eighteen and still so timid. You were already in charge of the household at eighteen."
Jin Xinghan said calmly, "That's all thanks to Uncle Zheng's excellent protection."
The woman next to Mr. Zheng realized he had misspoke and immediately stepped in to smooth things over, saying with a smile, "Your Uncle Zheng has had too much to drink and likes to talk nonsense. Mr. Jin, please don't mind."
"will not."
The woman tried to pull Mr. Zheng away.
But whether President Zheng genuinely hit it off with Jin Xinghan or simply wanted a drink, he insisted on dragging him along for a drink.
However, Jin Xinghan's health is really not suitable for drinking alcohol.
He had been exchanging pleasantries the whole way, and all he drank was plain water.
"Xinghan, I have a really good relationship with your parents! If you don't drink this with me, then you're disrespecting me!"
"Old Zheng! You've had too much to drink, how about I drink with you?"
"Who wants you to drink with me? I want to drink with Xinghan!"
Not only was the woman embarrassed, but even the little girl who had just been hiding to the side looked ashamed and indignant.
She probably felt that her father's drunken outburst was too embarrassing.
"Uncle Zheng! This is our first time meeting. May I drink this glass with you?"
President Zheng's gaze fell on Tang Xia's face.
It took him a while to remember Tang Xia's identity.
Pointing at her, he said, "You...you are...Xinghan's girlfriend."
"……Correct."
"That's great! We really have to have a drink! Xinghan has never had a woman in his life, we all thought maybe he had some kind of sexual orientation problem... um!"
Seeing that Mr. Zheng's words were getting more and more off-topic, the woman quickly covered his mouth.
He glanced at the two of them somewhat awkwardly.
"Mr. Jin, Ms. Tang, I'm so sorry."
"It's ok."
At that moment, General Manager Zheng reached out and beckoned a waiter.
He took a cup for himself and then handed another cup to Tang Xia.
"Come on! If Xinghan won't drink, you drink!"
Tang Xia had just taken it when someone grabbed her wrist.
Jin Xinghan's voice rang in my ears: "Don't force yourself."
Tang Xia shook her head and said with a smile, "It's nothing. Actually, I quite like drinking."
Jin Xinghan was skeptical.
Tang Xia smiled calmly.
He reached out and clinked his glass with Mr. Zheng's.
The glass clashed, making a crisp sound.
Tang Xia tilted his head back and drank it all.
The alcohol burned down my throat and into my stomach.
"Good! Miss Tang is indeed a straightforward person!"
After saying that, President Zheng actually wanted to continue drinking with Tang Xia.
This time, the woman didn't give him another chance to talk nonsense and directly had someone come and drag him away.
Afterwards, he apologized to the two of them again.
At this moment, Jin Xinghan's attention was no longer on them.
After Tang Xia finished drinking, she seemed to be fine on the surface.
But my head started to feel dizzy.
Even double images began to appear in front of my eyes.
Jin Xinghan frowned slightly as he looked at her, somewhat worried.
"Are you ok?"
Tang Xia has always been stubborn.
Besides, it was she who suggested drinking earlier.
"Of course! I can! It's just one glass of wine. I told you, I can drink a lot!"
Jin Xinghan suddenly felt that her contradictory behavior was actually quite cute.
His brow relaxed, and the corners of his lips curved slightly.
"Really? This wine is really that good?"
"It's... alright, I guess."
"Then I'll try some too..."
"No!" Although Tang Xia's head was a little dizzy, it was definitely not to the point of crashing.
Hearing that Jin Xinghan also wanted to try it, alarm bells immediately went off in his head.
You can't drink it! Your health is important!
Jin Xinghan said with slight regret, "Alright then."
Tang Xia put down her empty wine glass and turned to look at him.
"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"
Tang Xia tilted her head.
He seemed to be thinking.
Finally, she stood on tiptoe, and under Jin Xinghan's somewhat astonished gaze, gently patted his hair, saying in a coaxing tone, "Good boy."
The moment Tang Xia's hand touched his head, Jin Xinghan's breath caught in his throat for a second.
Tang Xia's skin was naturally fair.
After drinking, it wasn't noticeable on his face.
But those eyes were brimming with tears, shimmering and mesmerizing.
"Tang Xia, you're drunk." Jin Xinghan's voice was low and hoarse.
It was also mixed with some lust that he himself was unaware of.
The more drunk a person is, the less likely they are to admit it.
As the alcohol took effect, Tang Xia could barely tell what situation she was in.
She took a step back, just as she was about to show that she wasn't drunk, when her waist bumped into the cold marble.
Immediately afterwards, Jin Xinghan's hand was already placed behind her waist.
His warm breath sprayed against her ear.
"Tang Xia, you just said I was good. So, can a good child get some reward?"
Tang Xia's mind was too drunk to process such complicated words.
She could only nod haphazardly in agreement.
Jin Xinghan smiled with satisfaction.
He glanced around, then hugged Tang Xia even tighter, whispering in her ear, "There are too many people here. Let me take you home, okay?"
"go home!"
Tang Xia understood those two words.
Jin Xinghan helped the drunk Tang Xia leave through a side door that no one noticed.
Unbeknownst to him, a sinister gaze was following them closely.
