Xia Yangyang had originally just wanted to have a peaceful meal.
Just to be the invisible person in the room.
Looking up at Shen Shichuan, a trace of a smile played around his mouth, and there was a cunning glimmer in his eyes.
Clearly he was up for some amusement.
So, it was all done on purpose.
With only a single sentence, Shen Shichuan had managed to direct everyone’s attention to Xia Yangyang.
Xia Yangyang had no choice.
She could only pick up the wine glass and walk towards Gu Qichen.
Xia Yangyang went up beside Gu Qichen: “President Gu, I would like to propose a toast to you.”
After Xia Yangyang had finished speaking, Gu Qichen remained sitting there, not moving an inch.
Normally, when others proposed a toast, he’d respond in a gentlemanly and courteous manner.
So why was it different when it came to her, he seemed to be intentionally difficult.
Shen Shichuan at the side was all smiles.
The expressions of some of those present showed slight surprise.
However, when Xia Weiwei saw Gu Qichen doing this, completely ignoring Xia Yangyang, she was quite pleased.
Xia Yangyang was somewhat irritated.
Under such circumstances, couldn’t he just play along, instead of having everyone find it strange?
Xia Yangyang didn’t care anymore.
Regardless, she’d done her part in proposing the toast, whether he drank or not was his problem.
Xia Yangyang said bluntly: “I’ll drink, President Gu, feel free to do as you please.”
After finishing speaking, Xia Yangyang was about to drain the red wine in her glass in one gulp.
Just as the rim of the glass touched her lips, Xia Yangyang felt the glass being snatched from her hand.
It was actually Gu Qichen who had directly taken the glass of red wine from her hand.
Gu Qichen spoke in a light tone: “You have filming tomorrow, it’s better not to drink, bring a soft drink instead.”
With Gu Qichen’s words, everyone was left dumbfounded, not understanding the reason.
So…was Mr. Gu being considerate of Xia Yangyang?
But, just now many female actresses proposed a toast, most of whom also had appointments tomorrow.
No one saw President Gu being considerate towards any of them.
Xia Yangyang was also stunned.
What’s wrong with this guy?
Why couldn’t he just drink and be done with it?
Did he fear that people wouldn’t guess a relationship between them?
Seeing this, Xia Weiwei almost ground her teeth with jealousy.
Indeed, Gu Qichen’s attitude towards Xia Yangyang was extraordinary, like it had been at old Master Gu’s birthday party.
Xia Weiwei doubted if there was actually an unspoken relationship between these two.
Xia Yangyang had no choice but to get a glass of soft drink and propose another toast.
Gu Qichen downed it in one gulp, Xia Yangyang returned to her seat.
Looking around, Xia Yangyang saw a mix of complex expressions. Envy, jealousy, but mostly confusion.
But Xia Yangyang couldn’t care less.
It was merely a minor episode.
Everyone soon forgot, and the actresses present seized the opportunity to continue proposing toasts to Gu Qichen in various creative ways.
Xia Yangyang watched from afar.
She watched as Gu Qichen drank glass after glass.
The director also had too much to drink, and before the banquet ended, Shen Shichuan asked Chen Yu to take him home early.
But not one female actress was missing.
In the end, it was Shen Shichuan who announced that the banquet was over.
Once the producer spoke, everyone had to leave, however reluctant they may be.
Lu Yao said to Xia Yangyang: “Yangyang, let’s go. We have work early tomorrow morning. We should rest now, otherwise we’ll look swollen for the cameras in the morning.”
Xia Yangyang nodded.
Nevertheless, she was still worried about Gu Qichen.
He was slumped on the table and seemed to be drunk.
As Xia Yangyang was leaving the hotel, she was in turmoil.
The taxi had already stopped at the hotel entrance.
Suddenly, Xia Yangyang said to Lu Yao: “You go ahead, I just remembered I left something in the dining room, I need to go back and get it.”
Lu Yao had already stepped in the taxi, but was then obliged to say: “Then be quick, I’ll wait for you back home.”
Xia Yangyang ended up returning.
Upon re-entering the dining room, as expected, Gu Qichen still hadn’t left..
