Now is the time!
Qu Yunyao hastily stood up in excitement.
Just as she was about to stride over, her path was suddenly blocked by a man.
“Miss Qu?”
Qu Yunyao recognized him as Zhang Dechang, the Marketing Manager at Mo Family’s Haicheng branch office.
Yesterday afternoon, when she and Xu Rui wanted to discuss movie plans with Xiao Yebai, it was him that got scolded by Xiao Yebai in the hotel room for an entire afternoon, effectively disrupting their plans.
Similar to many middle-aged men nowadays, Zhang Dechang was not tall and nothing to look at. He had a distinctively obvious beer belly and was slightly balding.
“Manager Zhang.”
Zhang Dechang was holding a glass of wine, and there was a lewd glint in his eyes as he looked at her.
This niece of chairman Mo was really attractive, with her fair and delicate features. She was capable too and was a piano student, so she heard.
Indeed, girls who study music tend to have a good temperament. That tiny waist of hers, he wanted to pinch it so badly.
“Did you come with Mr. Xiao?”
Qu Yunyao slightly lowered her head, a faint smile on her lips. She didn’t deny it. “Excuse me, Manager Zhang. I need to discuss something with my brother- in-law.”
“Oh? I was just about to chat with Mr. Xiao about tomorrow’s schedule.” Zhang Dechang continued to stare at her without blinking.
Qu Yunyao, naturally aware of his ill intentions towards her, felt an urge to reject him. But she remembered the cold treatment from Xiao Yebai in the afternoon. With the presence of Manager Zhang, things might go smoother.
So she put up with her disgust and said with a smile, “Sure, after you, Manager Zhang.”
The beauty obliged, which delighted Zhang Dechang. He courteously bowed and extended his hand, “After you, Miss Qu.”
Qu Yunyao nodded and followed Zhang Dechang towards the balcony.
As they passed the bar, she gave the bartender a suggestive glance.
**
“Mr. Xiao.”
On the balcony, a tall and cold-formidable figure turned around at the sound of the voice.
Xiao Yebai was dressed in a black shirt and pants, an impeccably tailored formal suit, accentuating his tall and upright figure.
Under the slightly dim light, he looked elegant in his glasses, like an endearing male lead stepping out of a movie screen. Yet, his overly frosty aura made him seem aloof.
This contradictory combination could easily incite fear in people.
Because it’s unpredictable, it makes people cautious.
Qu Yunyao began to feel glad that Zhang Dechang was there with her.
“I just happened to run into Miss Qu here, so we came over together.” Zhang Dechang laughed heartily, his tone warm and familiar, “Mr. Xiao, why didn’t you mention that Miss Qu would be coming this time?”
Xiao Yebai had a straight face and didn’t respond.
Feeling embarrassed, Zhang Dechang decided to change the topic, “Right, Mr. Xiao, the market survey data for tomorrow’s meeting with the developer is ready, and I will let Xiaoma send it to your mailbox after the banquet ends.”
“All right.”
Zhang Dechang chuckled and proceeded to discuss some work matters.
After all, he won’t get a response from Xiao Yebai if he talked about anything else.
Throughout the conversation, Xiao Yebai chimed in once in a while. Although he was not enthusiastic, the atmosphere was still amiable.
Until a waiter passed by and Qu Yunyao suddenly spoke, “One moment.”
The waiter stopped and walked over with a tray in his hands.
Qu Yunyao reached out and picked a glass of red wine from the tray, “Excuse me, I suddenly feel unwell and wish to retire to my room. Manager Zhang, Brother-in-law, let’s toast to that.”
To prevent Xiao Yebai from suspecting anything, for both glasses of wine on the tray, Qu Yunyao had instructed the waiter to add aphrodisiac in advance.
The dosage wasn’t much but it was enough for a grown man to lose his selfcontrol after consuming alcohol.
She just needed to take a small sip purely as a formality, which wouldn’t cause any problems.
“It’s very kind of you Miss Qu. If you’re not feeling well, you should rest early,” Zhang Dechang replied, raising his glass with a smile.
Qu Yunyao smiled gently, clinked glasses with him, and then turned toward Xiao Yebai.
“Mr. Xiao?” Zhang Dechang kindly reminded.
Xiao Yebai didn’t reply, but he reached out and picked up the other glass of wine on the tray.
A sigh of relief unknowingly escaped from the bottom of Qu Yunyao’s heart.
She watched as Xiao Yebai’s handsome fingers held the wine, and her heart pounded so hard it felt like it would pop out of her chest.
The red liquid in the glass flowed slowly with his movements, and just as it was about to touch his lips…
“I’ll drink it for him!”
Qu Yunyao was stunned.
Xiao Yebai halted his action.
Zhang Dechang was utterly surprised.
Under the dazzling crystal chandelier, Mo Weiyi elegantly sauntered over from the end of the red carpet.
She was beautifully made-up, looking radiant and energetic. Her red dress made her stunningly irresistible yet her sweet smile added a playful charm to her aura.
Her thick, unstyled, curly hair spilled freely over her shoulders, adding a touch of seductiveness to her persona.
Her dress trailed along the floor, and she held a delicately fashioned silver cane in one hand. If not observed closely, one would assume it to be simply an accessory.
Zhang Dechang was mesmerized.
He didn’t expect to meet both Miss Qu and the elusive Miss Mo of the Mo family today.
As he watched, he subconsciously started to compare the two.
If Qu Yunyao was a beguiling lily, then Mo Weiyi, she was like a blooming red rose.
Vibrant, confident, and flamboyant.
Though she was merely twenty, she was still young and unripe, yet she possessed a commanding presence.
Xiao Yebai had already put down his glass of wine and walked towards her.
