Chapter 320: Chapter 320 He Doesn’t Want to Recognize Her

The private room door swung open.

Qiao Xi lifted her eyes and saw the man standing in the backlight. Her lips curled into a smile, her eyes filled with his presence.

"Mr. Huo!"

Huo Xingzhou approached, touched her cheek, and said, "Have you been waiting long?"

"Not at all, I just got here. Old Chen went to open the private room for me..."

Seeing him, all of Qiao Xi’s bad mood dissipated. The petty conflicts at the hospital were thrown to the back of her mind.

The man asked, "They all want to meet you, shall we go in?"

"Yes!"

Qiao Xi was not shy.

Sooner or later, she would have to integrate into his circle. There was nothing to avoid.

"Let’s go."

Huo Xingzhou took her hand and led her inside.

As soon as Qiao Xi appeared, the private room became lively.

She greeted everyone with her beautiful, radiant smile, looking perfectly at ease.

"Mrs. Huo is really beautiful. Are all the girls from Haicheng gentle like water and strikingly beautiful like this? I’m thinking of asking someone to introduce me to a girl from Haicheng."

"President Huo is really lucky. I heard that it was your wife who accompanied you through the toughest times. Such a wife is truly rare!"

"A toast to Mrs. Huo!"

Everyone was lively, Qiao Xi’s eyes were brimming with laughter, yet her gaze fell on the end of the long sofa.

The young man there exuded grace, his exposed skin pale and cold, yet he was leaning into the embrace of another man.

Could this be the rumored Young Master Zhong?

Qiao Xi took a few steps forward and greeted him politely, "Young Master Zhong, hello. Last time at the Jinling Grand Hotel..."

"Ahem..."

Young Master Zhong turned his back to Qiao Xi, coughing harshly.

Wan Jiang stood by, blocking Qiao Xi’s view, and said, "It seems that Young Master Zhong has had too much to drink and is not feeling well. I... I’ll take him back to the hotel first. Everyone, please continue drinking, this bill is on Young Master Zhong! We’ll head over to Tianyuan Group to sign the contract tomorrow morning."

He helped Young Master Zhong up slowly and walked out, his body blocking the view of Zhong’s face.

Young Master Zhong lay weakly in Wan Jiang’s arms, head not even lifted.

Qiao Xi frowned slightly, craning her neck for a better look, but she couldn’t see clearly.

This Young Master Zhong was indeed as strange as she had thought!

"Enjoy your time, everyone!"

Wan Jiang walked out of the private room, making sure to close the door behind him.

With a bang,

He was finally able to breathe a long sigh of relief after shutting out the inquisitive and curious gazes from inside.

Young Master Zhong straightened up, his eyes devoid of drunkenness.

The corners of his eyes were tinged with a beautifully chaotic red, his lips red and teeth white.

He opened his mouth, his voice clear with a faint roughness, "Wan Jiang, who said I was buying tonight?"

The bill for the drinks was over a million, and Tianyuan Group was eager for their signature.

Why should he be the one buying!

Wan Jiang was flustered, "Aren’t you the one who signaled for me to wrap things up early? It would’ve been so rude to just leave directly, so I thought treating them would make them happy."

Young Master Zhong glanced at him, "You spend my money to make them happy? You really know how to do business. Just now, Huo Xingzhou even said he wanted to leave early. He didn’t seem to feel embarrassed?"

Wan Jiang scratched his head, "Maybe his skin is thicker? Young Master Zhong, I think you’re being a bit too hostile towards President Huo."

Young Master Zhong paused, his eyes gleaming slightly with emotion, "Is it that obvious?"

Wan Jiang nodded emphatically!

He explained, "Young Master Zhong, I get it! You big bosses conduct business and excel at psychological tactics. You were asserting your dominance to let them see your power, so they wouldn’t dare play tricks during the cooperation."

Nonsense about psychological tactics!

Young Master Zhong’s smoothly contoured profile was shrouded in the dim light, "Is there a possibility that I just don’t like him?"

Wan Jiang did not dare to speak, thinking to himself, if you dislike him, why cooperate with him?

He always felt that at this moment, Young Master Zhong was not in a very good mood.

Under the influence of alcohol, Young Master Zhong said, "Wan Jiang, let’s drive to Moon Village now... never mind, let’s go back to the hotel."

He finally changed his mind, knowing that Huo Xingzhou’s people were constantly tracking his movements.

And in Imperial Capital, his so-called "big brother" would not miss any opportunity to turn defeat into victory. He couldn’t expose his vulnerability and bring danger to her.

Most importantly, someone who had been declared dead had suddenly reappeared.

How frightening that was!

A whirlwind of thoughts tangled in his mind, a struggle of emotions, and ultimately, he couldn’t take that step.

...

Half an hour later.

The socializing was over.

Huo Xingzhou and his group left the Shanhai Banquet, with Jin Kai drunk as a skunk. He slurred, "President Huo, we’ve nailed tonight’s deal! That Young Master Zhong... since he’s willing to pay the bill, that’s showing goodwill towards us. Tomorrow... signing the contract should be no problem at all."

He burped, "I really admire Director Zhou, thanks to him knocking all the Beijing people out with drinks yesterday, we have our success today."

Huo Xingzhou held some respect for this old employee, "Old Chen, call a ride service for Director Jin."

"Yes, young master."

Old Chen supported Jin Kai and asked, "Director Jin, let’s get in the car. Where are your car keys?"

"In the pocket... in my pant’s pocket."

Jin Kai couldn’t even straighten his tongue anymore, "President Huo, for me, Jin, to follow you... is a blessing of three lifetimes! You’re the invincible God of War! You are..."

Qiao Xi stood beside Huo Xingzhou, covering her mouth to stifle her laughter.

There was a constant flow of people at the entrance of the Shanhai Banquet, and Jin Kai’s display of loyalty really drew attention. Once Old Chen got him into the car and closed the door, the noise of his ruckus was cut off.

Qiao Xi’s smile was full of mirth, "Director Jin has truly earned his position, he indeed has some skills!"

"What skills?"

Huo Xingzhou seemed to see through her thoughts and continued along the lines of her remark.

Qiao Xi said, "They say truth comes out when you’re drunk, Director Jin is really good at flattery."

"Not as good as you are!"

At his words, Qiao Xi gave him a glance.

She struggled to keep her lips from curling upwards, her voice soft and muffled, "Who’s flattering you? I’m nowhere as good as Director Jin."

Huo Xingzhou’s eyes were indifferent, but a hint of a smile lingered, "Then let’s go home and see who really is better."

Qiao Xi huffed and turned her face away.

Old Chen found a ride service for Jin Kai and quickly returned with the Rolls Royce. He opened the doors for the two, and Qiao Xi and Huo Xingzhou both got into the car.

"Young master, Young Madam. Shall we head straight home?"

"Mhm."

"Alright."

Old Chen started the vehicle and drove forward.

Passing by a corner, there was a Cullinan parked, and Qiao Xi glanced at it subconsciously. The car sped by, and through the window, she vaguely saw a handsome profile but it wasn’t very clear.

Qiao Xi suddenly asked, "Doesn’t Young Master Zhong hold his liquor very well?"

Huo Xingzhou glanced at her and said, "He’s not bad."

"Then how did you manage to get him drunk?" she leaned in close, deeply inhaling the scent of alcohol on him.

It was quite strong.

Qiao Xi was a bit displeased, "How much did you drink? You know your stomach can’t handle it, so why overindulge?"

"I had something to eat before drinking to line my stomach. I wouldn’t dare neglect Doctor Qiao’s medical advice and carelessly harm myself," Huo Xingzhou whispered soothingly as he held her.

The light, crisp male scent mixed with the alcohol made Qiao Xi’s cheeks flush red.

She pushed him gently, "Why is it that after drinking, you start saying all these sweet nothings?"

It was embarrassingly sweet.

His tall figure shadowed most of the light, as he lowered his head and chuckled softly by her ear.

The laughter was soaked with the flavor of the wine.

Qiao Xi’s body softened at his chuckle.

Huo Xingzhou, observant, noticed the needle mark on her, and the smile on his face disappeared.

He was about to question her when Qiao Xi’s phone in her purse started buzzing. She spoke softly, "Let me take this call first."

This late, she wondered who it could be.
