50 -50 Lu Yinchu, You Can’t Hold Me_1
“Oh…” The woman seemed to recall something, with a somewhat apologetic tone, ” …I’m so sorry.
I’ve been talking so much that I forgot to introduce myself.
I’m Baobao’s cousin, my name is Han Qing!”
“Hello, my name is Gu Nanxi!”
“Nanxi…
What a nice name!”
The woman smiled, looking at the half-drunken drink in Nanxi’s hand: “Do you like fruit wine a lot?”
“Fruit wine?” Nanxi was taken aback.
…
Nanxi wandered left and right along the hotel corridor for a couple of times until she finally found the restroom.
As soon as she entered, she felt a wave of nausea welling up in her stomach.
She leaned against the washstand and started to vomit…
The full effects of the alcohol had kicked in!
After vomiting, her mind was still groggy.
She lifted her head to look at herself in the mirror: a pale face, frail frame, and a hazy gaze…
She was in a terrible state!
Nanxi felt sick to her stomach, but her heart felt sicker.
The tiny bit of sobriety left in her enabled her to make a phone call.
She dialed Liang Qiaoqiao’s number.
“Hello, cousin, it’s me, Nanxi…
I’m now at…
at…”
Nanxi scratched her head, trying to remember the name of the hotel.
However, her mind was too hazy, and she couldn’t recall it, which caused her to become anxious.
Her brows furrowed.
The phone in her hand was suddenly snatched away by someone, and the next second, a beep indicated the call had been disconnected.
…
As for drinking, Nanxi sometimes enjoyed the instant stimulation of gulping down a drink, but she really did not like the feeling after getting drunk.
The reality was, her tolerance for alcohol was embarrassingly low!
Liang Qiaoqiao had once mentioned that attending work-related drinking parties would be inevitable in the future.
Nanxi had to admit, she did feel apprehensive about that when she first heard it.
However, right here and now, her phone was abruptly taken away, she did get a little angry.
She lifted her head, intending to curse out loud, but saw a gentle and handsome face…
She furrowed her brows and rubbed her forehead, thinking she had seen the wrong person.
When she opened her eyes again, the face appeared even closer to her.
With a weak voice, she muttered, “Why…
Why am I having spring dreams again…”
Spring dreams?
The man furrowed his brows but didn’t think much about it.
He lifted her up in his arms.
This action felt strangely familiar to Nanxi, causing a wave of resistance inside her.
She pushed against his chest, “Let me down!”
“You’re drunk!” The man’s voice was steady and firm, and he tightened his grip on her, showing no intention of letting her go.
“Let me down, Lu Yinchu, you can’t hold me…
Not even in a dream!”
She continued to struggle, not cooperating at all, causing a fuss in his arms.
Her soft body was rubbing against the man’s chest through their clothes, which momentarily disrupted his breathing.
“Behave.
I won’t harm you,” the man said softly, his voice slightly hoarse.
Nanxi furrowed her brows, and indeed, her body stopped moving.
The man carried her out of the restroom…
At the entrance, a man with a cold face was standing.
He called out, “Boss Lu…”
Lu Yinchu grunted in acknowledgement.
“Arrange a room — also…
go buy some hangover medicine!”
Mo Yan pressed his lips together and nodded: “Yes, Boss Lu!”
…
Nanxi felt somewhat drowsy, and it seemed as if she could hear people talking.
Frowning, she wondered why are there always so much noise in her dreams when all she wanted was a quiet sleep!
When she found herself lying on a soft bed, Nanxi’s longing for sleep was gratified.
Her pink lips curved into a contented smile, and she murmured, “This feels right…”
The man standing by the bed paused for a moment.
His gaze lingered on the woman’s satisfied, slightly tipsy face for two seconds before he indifferently looked away.
His phone rang.
He pulled it out, glanced at it, then walked onto the balcony to answer it.
The man on the other end of the phone sounded teasing and provocative: “What?
You’re not coming down? freewebnøvel.coɱ
You’re really planning to take the little girl now?
She must be only in her early twenties…
Tsk tsk, Yinchu, you’re quite ruthless!”
“Have you had your say?”
Lu Yinchu’s dark eyes narrowed slightly as he gazed out at the view beyond the balcony.
High-rises stretched into the distance under the fine weather, with the KING Group’s latest billion-dollar mega project in sight not far away.
But all those things couldn’t compare to the joy he felt from seeing the sleeping girl behind him, every frown, every smile…
The man on the phone sighed, “Fine, I won’t say anything more.
But Yinchu, have you really…
made up your mind?
After all, Gu Nanxi is…”
“I know what I’m doing!” He cut him off and spoke indifferently, “Shaojing, you should understand, if I could easily let go, why would I have persisted to this day?”
…
This drunken nap didn’t send Nanxi into a deep slumber.
Perhaps it was due to the effects of the hangover medicine, but three hours later, Nanxi woke up, feeling mentally and physically drained.
She found herself in a clean and tidy room.
The room was simply furnished, unpretentious yet elegant…
It wasn’t like an ordinary room, it felt like…
a hotel?
Nanxi was momentarily dazed.
She turned her head slightly and instantly saw the man sitting on the sofa in the distance, sipping tea…
Her heart skipped a beat.
The man looked up and caught her gaze.
Nanxi was sure she was dreaming, she must be dreaming…
Just as she closed her eyes, intending to hypnotize herself, Lu Yinchu’s clear voice came over—
“You’re not dreaming.
You got drunk, and I happened to find you in the corridor…
So, I brought you here…”
After he finished speaking, he got up, walked over to a side table, picked up a glass water pitcher, and asked her, “Do you want some water?”
Nanxi coughed…
She was still a bit dazed…
“So you…” Why would you be in this room?
Even if you kindly brought me here, you shouldn’t have been watching me while I was sleeping!
Nanxi wanted to ask, but she dared not voice it, so she could only send him a resentful look!
However, the man seemed oblivious to her reproachful gaze.
His lips tilted up in a smile, and his eyes were filled with a rich emotion that seemed capable of completely submerging her.
Finally, Lu Yinchu calmly spoke, “Due to unforeseen circumstances, the hotel’s capacity was full.
So, you are now in my designated resting room.”
“…”
So that’s why he was here so openly?
Nanxi felt like her brain cells weren’t functioning full capacity!
She threw off the blanket, intending to leave even though she could clearly feel her body swaying, and her mouth tasting bitter!
Wait, a bitter taste?
The taste of medicine, was it hangover medicine?
How could she have swallowed such a bitter thing?
A cup of water was handed to her, “Drink some!”
Unable to resist the dryness in her throat and the bitter taste in her mouth, Nanxi took the cup and took a big gulp.
She drank half the cup in one go!
“Thank you, Mr.
Lu!”
“Is your mind a little clearer?”
“Huh?”
Nanxi was slightly startled!
Lu Yinchu put his hands into his pockets, looking splendidly handsome.
He walked over a chair by the bed and sat down.
His expression relaxed, “Here’s the thing: I’d like to talk to you about your uncle’s property…”
