Signal to Break the Cup, the Wine Was Too Intoxicating

In the private box,

Shen Xiyue glanced at A Long beside her, her eyes filled with resentment as she looked at Jiang Cheng.

He sighed softly.

"Sigh, Jiang Cheng, do you think there's any trust between people?"

After speaking, Shen Xiyue glanced at A Long without making a sound.

Why would someone who's perfectly fine like to be a third wheel?

They have absolutely no sense of propriety.

A Long felt uneasy under Jiang Cheng's gaze, but he still stood behind him with a stiff upper lip.

There's nothing I can do about it, ever since that incident between the young master and Miss Qin Yan.

He was given a death order by Jiang Cheng.

In this situation, a man and a woman are alone in a room.

He had to hold his ground and stay by the young master's side at all times.

Jiang Cheng also understood Shen Xiyue's implied meaning and awkwardly touched his nose.

This was a last resort.

He has developed a psychological trauma from facing this situation.

"Ahem~ A Long, come with me."

Jiang Cheng coughed lightly.

After thinking about it, I decided to let A Long go out.

But this time he learned his lesson and became more cautious.

Jiang Cheng pulled A Long to a corner and lowered his voice,

"Be smart this time, kid. We'll use smashing the cup as a signal. As soon as we hear the sound, rush in."

"Clear?"

A Long patted his chest confidently, his words resolute.

"Young Master, you can rest assured that I will handle things perfectly."

Jiang Cheng's lips twitched; he had a feeling that this kid was a bit unreliable.

However, there's no better way right now, so we'll just have to make do.

Just as the two were whispering and plotting, Shen Xiyue slowly curled the corners of her lips into a smile.

With her abilities, hearing the conversation clearly would be incredibly easy for her.

He took out his phone and gave a few simple instructions.

Shen Xiyue continued to pretend to be unaware, resting her chin on her hand and quietly watching the scene unfold.

On the other hand, after repeatedly giving A Long instructions.

Jiang Cheng thought that this time there would be no accidents, so he sat back down opposite Shen Xiyue without worry.

At the same time,

In the hotel lounge, two men in suits and sunglasses stared in disbelief at the messages on their phones.

"Boss, is she... is she really going to force herself on me?"

One of them swallowed hard, his eyes wide with shock.

"Tsk~ As expected of the boss, she's just one word—fierce! I wonder if the Young Master Jiang can handle it."

Another Suit Man glanced at him sideways and spoke irritably.

"Why don't you go help push it?"

Upon hearing this, the Suit Man shook his head frantically.

Are you kidding me!

If he dares to do that today, he'll be dancing with wandering ghosts on his grave tomorrow.

"What nonsense! If you ruin the boss's plans, you'll be in big trouble."

Without hesitation, the two immediately went upstairs.

At the entrance of the private room, A Long stood there straight, his expression solemn.

At that moment, he noticed two Suit Man walking towards the private room, and immediately became extremely alert.

These two are very strong!

He is no less capable than him.

Who are you?

A Long lowered his voice.

He would act immediately if he sensed anything was wrong.

This is his professional ethics as a bodyguard!

"Brother, don't be nervous. We're the boss's men. We even bumped into each other in the private room downstairs just now."

As they spoke, the two took off their sunglasses.

A Long breathed a sigh of relief; these two were indeed Miss Shen's subordinates.

The one on the left is the one who kicked Zhao Hu in the face just now.

Seeing that A Long had lowered his guard, the two quickly stepped forward to strike up a conversation.

"Brother, you're Young Master Jiang's bodyguard, right? What's your name?"

"A Long".

"So it's you, Brother A Long. I've long admired your name. It's a pleasure to meet you."

Without thinking twice, the two of them launched into a barrage of attacks.

At first, A Long was still cautious and deliberately left a loophole.

Seeing that the two did not make a move, he was completely relieved.

Since the three shared similar interests and were all bodyguards, they quickly became close friends.

"Brother A Long, your outfit must be quite expensive. Young Master Jiang really values you."

One of the Suit Man had his arm around A Long's shoulder, his tone full of envy.

Another person chimed in from the side.

"Yes, when we came out, Young Master Jiang only let you accompany him. This kind of trust is truly touching."

If you can talk, say more!

A Long's smile never stopped; he pressed his hand down.

"Of course, my young master is incredibly good to us brothers."

"Look at this outfit, it's custom-made, it costs hundreds of thousands!"

A Long pointed to his clothes and grinned.

"You don't get this treatment, do you? But it's okay, as long as you do a good job."

"There will be bread, and there will be milk."

The two Suit Man twitched at the corners of their mouths, tears of envy streaming down their faces.

Is it too late for us to switch jobs now?

Wait... I almost got dragged in!

Where did this kid learn to make empty promises?

I almost forgot about the important business.

Shaking his head, the Suit Man put his arm around A Long's neck.

"Brother A Long, how about we go downstairs for a couple of drinks? You can also share some of your experience with us."

That won't do!

A Long quickly shook his head.

"I have something to do today, but I'll definitely share everything I know another day."

Well, kid, if you don't take the soft approach, don't blame us for coming up with something even softer...

"Wait, there seems to be some movement in here."

The Suit Man frowned and quickly pressed his ear against the door.

There's a sound?!

A Long's heart skipped a beat.

While saying, "Let me hear it," he pressed his ear against it.

The next second, a chop to the neck landed on A Long.

"I'm sorry."

Looking at A Long, who had collapsed on the ground, the Suit Man looked apologetic.

"For the sake of our boss's important business, brother, you'll have to put up with this."

"Also, this door is actually a specially made soundproof door, so you can't hear any sounds coming from inside."

After saying that, the two Suit Man carried A Long to the downstairs lounge.

Inside the private room,

"My goodness, this woman can really drink!"

Jiang Cheng glanced at the empty wine bottle, rubbed his forehead, and muttered to himself.

Shen Xiyue's face was flushed, perhaps because she was drunk, and her movements became bolder.

He reached out and roughly rubbed Jiang Cheng's face several times.

"Jiang Cheng, what are you chattering about? Can I hear you too?"

This woman, she can just talk, why does she have to get physical with me!

Jiang Cheng's forehead creased with annoyance. He slapped Shen Xiyue's hand away and rolled his eyes in exasperation.

"You're drunk."

"I... I'm not drunk, you can smell me if you don't believe me."

Shen Xiyue stood up defiantly, placed her hands on the table, leaned forward, and exhaled a breath of hot air toward Jiang Cheng.

In an instant, a patch of snow-white appeared in Jiang Cheng's eyes.

Cough cough~

Jiang Cheng coughed lightly and awkwardly looked away.

"Okay, okay, you're not drunk, I'm the one who's drunk."

Seeing this, Shen Xiyue's lips slowly curled up.

It's only a small amount of alcohol; how could she possibly get drunk with her strength?

It's just to create a false impression and make it easier to find an excuse.

After all, there's a saying that goes, "Drunkenness leads to promiscuity."

If she accidentally did something wrong, it wasn't intentional, was it?

Blame it on this wine being too intoxicating.

Moreover, she was a victim too!
