Ch. 10 – Drunk Fragments
Chang Qing began to seriously scrutinize Chi Zhao.
Li Yihan stood five or six meters away from them, close enough for him to see who Qi Yuan was talking to, but too far away for him to hear what they were saying.
By Li Yihan’s side there were two Mediterranean men who were talking to him. Li Yihan seemed to be listening to what they say, but in fact, his eyes kept glancing over to Qi Yuan.
A good-looking, elegant man came over and saw Li Yihan’s appearance, the he playfully raised his eyebrow.
Following Li Yihan’s line of sight, there are two people. One is the new general manager of the Chang corporation, the other is Li Yihan’s adopted son.
The two Mediterranean men finally finished what they wanted to say, and when they saw the master of the Li family nod gently to them, their mood immediately improved, and they felt that he was indeed a man of great ability. Then they happily went to find the next young man who they could talk to.
After they left, Tang Si walked over to Li Yihan’s side. “Your adopted son seems to be very interested in Chang Qing. Aren’t you going to have a look? “
Li Yihan looked up at his friend, then dropped his eyes as if nothing had happened. “They’re just saying a few insignificant words.”
“It’s all right if you don’t believe me, ” said Tang Si, laughing in vague manner, “In any case, Chang Qing has a reputation for being okay with both men and women, and I remember his latest taste being an energetic young man. That’s just as well. The general manager is a generation younger than you, and you can use seniority to push him around the negotiating table.”
Li Yihan frowned. “What are you trying to say? “
Tang Si smiled a little, “Even blood related son may not necessarily listen to you, let alone an adopted son. Looking at his appearance, he seems to have a good impression of Chang Qing. He even dares to have other ideas about Chang Qing. Your adopted son is not very simple.”
Li Yihan’s line of sight fell to Qi yuan body, now that Chang Qing was gone, he paused, picked up a plate of cake, and continued eat. Li Yihan didn’t bother responding to his best friend’s words.
He couldn’t tell Tang Si that it wasn’t Chang Qing that Qi yuan was interested in, but himself.
Seeing that he didn’t answer, Tang Si thought that he was right. He wanted to speak again, but before he could he heard Li Yihan say, “Not simple? He’s the simplest person I’ve ever met.”
As he spoke, Li Yihan eyes were calm and his tone was straight forward, as if he was talking about the weather. Such a casual attitude showed that Li Yihan was serious, he really thought that Qi Yuan’s mind was simple to understand.
Tang Si: “…”
He hadn’t seen Li Yihan in a few months, is it possible he became an idiot? Even he could see that Qi Yuan was a bad investment. He was clearly scheming with Chang Qing!
Tang Si said this, but Li Yihan twisted his eyebrows and just looked at him, “Your eyes are must be out of order. “
Who’s the one with the eye problems, huh?!
Tang Si was angry, he threw done his words “Just you wait, I’ll prove it to you. “
——————–
The outside world is not clear about Li Yihan’s disposition, while Tang Si is openly gay, and he’s also exclusively a gong. As he lifted his feet and walked over to Qi Yuan, Li Yihan’s reaction was that he immediately wanted to drag him back.
Tang SI walked quickly and within a few steps reached Chi Zhao, who had just put down the cake plate he had devoured at the speed of light. Feeling a little choked, he looked around for the glass of red wine that Chang Qing had brought over.
After a little thought, he decided that he didn’t want to have anything to do with Chang Qing, include drinking the wine he brought. Just thinking about how bad he was behind closed doors made Chi Zhao want to vomit. He pushed the glass aside in disgust and decided to ask the waiter for a low-alcohol drink.
At this point, Tang Si came up to him. The waiter was passing by and he reached to grab a couple of cocktails from the tray, which were a nice shade of pale pink, like French macarons. There were only two glasses left on the tray when Tang Si and Chi Zhao went to grab them at the same time. The end result left Tang Si with both glasses of wine.
Chi Zhao’s outstretched hand hung in mid-air. Tang Si saw this, and showing a friendly smile, handed one of the glasses to Chi Zhao.
Chi Zhao gave him a thank you. Tang Si hung his lips and just as he went to take a drink he could hear —
gulp, gulp, gulp.
After three mouthfuls, Chi Zhao’s glass was empty, leaving only the lonely mint leaves lying at the bottom of the cup.
Tang Si: “…”
This kind of cocktail does not have a strong alcoholic taste, but is still slightly sweet, a bit like fruit juice. Chi Zhao quite liked the taste and felt like he didn’t get enough. He turned around and picked up the glass of red wine that he had just abandoned, “Are you still drinking? I haven’t touched this cup. Shall we exchange it?”
The smile on Tang Si Ze’s face froze. This was the first time he saw someone exchanging drinks with a stranger at a cocktail party. He remained stunned for two seconds before nodding his head and looking at Chi Zhao. A smile cracked on his lips and he let out a boisterous laugh. He put his glass in Chi Zhao’s hand and then took the glass of red wine in exchange.
After another three loud gulps Chi Zhao’s glass was once again empty. He smiled at Tang Si politely, and then turned to another row of dining tables to find something delicious.
Tang Si: “…”
Li Yihan was standing fairly close to them, however, two or three women standing together blocked him from Chi Zhao’s sight. Tang Si came back with a glass of red wine and a wooden face. He looked at Li Yihan. The latter still wore his usual cold expression, but Tang Si could just barley see the corners of Li Yihan’s lips twitch from time to time.
Just laugh! Aren’t you tired of holding it in?!
Tang Si was silent, he handed the glass to Li Yihan, “You win, I was wrong.”
Hearing this, Li Yihan finally smiled. No matter what age a man is, watching his best friend admit defeat is one of life’s great joys. He put down the glass and patted Tang Si on the shoulder with a mocking smile.
It changed hands four times, and in the end, no one drank that glass of wine.
Li Yihan only talked to Tang Si for two minutes, and then he went over to the dining tables. Qi Yuan had been drinking too fast, so he was a little concerned and wanted to go check on him.
However, Qi Yuan was no longer at the dining table. At some point he had ran to the other end of the room, where he was sitting on a sofa, staring at the various people passing by in front of him.
He looked sober. In fact, if Li Yihan looked closely, he could see that Qi Yuan’s eyes had become blurred. The cocktail he was drinking didn’t smell like alcohol, however, the alcohol level was very high. After he ran to the other side, he saw this kind of cocktail again, and he drank two more cups. Although each cocktail is small, together, the amount is actually very considerable. Plus, he drank it too fast and too enthusiastically, and it made his head spin.
Chi Zhao sat askew on the sofe, his right hand supporting his head, his left hand resting casually on the arm of the sofa. With a smile, he looked at everyone who passed him. Two girls walked over to him and seeing that his eyes were resting on them, blushed.
Qi Yuan is already a good-looking man, but today he is specially dressed up. Plus, with the effects of the alcohol, right now he is like a miniature pheromone dispenser.
Chi Zhao, who was alone for 20 years, always wanted to have a relationship. Unfortunately, he had to study hard when he was in high school and didn’t have any time to have a relationship. When he got to college, he did have time, but he became a male friend of his female classmates, not a single one of them thought of him as a potential lover.
Looking at the crowd passing by, Chi Zhao began to seriously think, if he can’t find a girlfriend, should he just try to find a boyfriend?
System: ”…”
Are you humans so casual about your sexuality? Is changing sexual orientation is as easy as changing clothes?!
Chi Zhao was thinking about it when suddenly, his eyes were blocked. Li Yi Han looked down at him with two silent eyes, and three seconds later, he slightly bent over. Li Yihan stared at Chi Zhao’s eyes for a while, then he asked aloud, “Qi Yuan, are you drunk? “
Qi Yuan didn’t answer him.
Li Yihan knows when Qi Yuan dare to look at him so carelessly, it was because he was hiding something. He must be drunk.
“Do you know who I am? “
Qi Yuan tilted his head, and this time answered, “Sir. “
Yeah, way too much to drink…
Li Yihan did not intend to stay any longer. He stretched out his hand and with five fingers like pincers, firmly grasped Qi Yuan’s forearm, pulling him up
Qi Yuan stood up obediently and began to walk unsteadily. After almost falling down, Li Yihan helped him, and carefully checked Qi Yuan’s face, making sure he okay before leading him out.
Tang Si saw this scene, and immediately clicked his tongue twice. Ah, Father’s love is so great. Just how long did it take for Li Yihan to change his personality?
No, to others he was the same ice emperor that he always was, but to Qi Yuan…
Ah, the father’s halo shines bright.
Li Yihan didn’t know about Tang Si silent complaints. He only knew that a drunk Qi Yuan’s was still pretty good. When he drank too much, he didn’t act like a demon. He also still looked so good. He stuffed him into the car, and then he got in and ordered the driver to go home. The car was quiet as Li Yihan looked out at the scenery passing by.
There were four people in the car, and all four of them were in a very calm mood. It was only one onlooker that was unhappy.
The system was very nervous because it found itself disconnected from Chi Zhao. What does that mean? This means that Chi Zhao is blackout drunk, ah!!!
It immediately called Chi Zhao’s name, but Chi Zhao only blinked his eyes like he did not hear anything. Suddenly, he turned his eyes to Li Yihan.
The system got a very bad feeling.
Sure enough, the next moment Qi Yuan looked like a sliding skateboard and slipped to Li Yihan’s side. Li Yihan was hit by the car door and his hip bone was hurt. He looked back with astonishment. Qi Yuan pinched his face and happily announced: “Boss, let’s go fall in love together!”
Li Yihan: “…”
System: “…”
Assistant Zhao: “…?!!”
