She is a heartthrob who wants to live a good life
Chapter 27 Sickly and Gentle White Moonlight 27
The Gu family is one of the top wealthy families in Imperial City, and the homecoming banquet for the daughter of the Gu family was also held in a grand manner.
Gu Zhixi wore a one-shoulder silver flowing slim dress that highlighted her figure. She stood in the banquet hall holding a high-heeled wine glass and socialized with everyone with a smile, like a fish in water.
In contrast to her contentment, Shen Weicang seemed somewhat unfamiliar with such a scene.
After all, this was her first time attending such a banquet, so she couldn't help being a little curious. Seeing that most people were holding wine glasses, she also took a glass of champagne from the waiter's tray.
Gu Zhiyan and Lin Suning were pestered and chatted for a while, and Zhou Yejin and Tao Yixi were also greeted from time to time. Without noticing, Shen Weicang took several sips of the wine in the glass.
By the time Zhou Yejin discovered him, Shen Weicang was already a little dazed and his feet were a little unsteady.
For the sake of her health, Zhou Yejin never let her touch alcohol. At this moment, she had taken several sips in a row and her mind was a little unclear.
Generally speaking, people don't drink too much champagne in such occasions. Although everyone will hold the bottle in their hands, most people will just take a small sip during most social events.
Zhou Yejin reluctantly took her in his arms and sat down on the sofa in the rest area. Noticing that her exposed skin was slightly red, he took off his suit jacket and put it on her.
The dress was a champagne-colored, sequined fishtail dress that reached Shen Weicang's calves. It was not actually too revealing, but Shen Weicang had a good figure, and the part of her chest that was vaguely exposed after she put on the dress made Zhou Yejin regret having brought the dress to her.
But he had chosen several sets for her, and she just happened to like this one. Zhou Yejin had no choice but to watch her at the banquet to prevent her from being bullied.
That night, the four of them took turns guarding Shen Weicang. Everyone present was not blind or stupid, so they could naturally see that Shen Weicang's identity was not someone they could afford to offend.
But no one came to provoke Shen Weicang, but no one stopped her from drinking.
Lin Suning, who was chatting with someone not far away, saw this and said a few words to the other party and walked over. He saw Shen Weicang leaning on Zhou Yejin's shoulder with his eyes narrowed, his little face flushed with peach red clouds, and he chuckled.
He bent down slightly and stood in front of Shen Weicang, reaching out and gently stroking her face: "I forgot to remind you in advance not to drink the wine here."
He turned to look at Zhou Yejin: "Send her to the room upstairs to rest."
Zhou Yejin said "hmm", stood up slightly, picked up Shen Weicang horizontally, and walked towards the stairs without looking away, passing through the gazes that were being observed openly and secretly.
Gu Zhiyan and Tao Yixi naturally saw it as well.
The two walked over to Lin Suning and frowned and asked, "What happened to Cang Cang?"
"I took a few sips of wine and got myself drunk."
Lin Suning's tone was full of doting: "Cang Cang has never been exposed to these things, so it's inevitable that he would be curious."
Zhou Yejin said that Shen Weicang had a bad stomach and a weak heart, so he never let her drink any alcoholic beverages.
Tao Yixi was a little worried: "Will you feel uncomfortable?"
Gu Zhiyan looked upstairs. Zhou Yejin walked very quickly and disappeared on the stairs. "Cang Cang's body has been much better than before. If he only drank a few sips, it shouldn't be a big problem."
Gu Zhixi stood a few steps away from them. The banquet hall was filled with noise. Although she couldn't hear what they were saying, she knew that the topic would always be about Shen Weicang.
Seeing that she seemed to be in a trance, Tao Minyi beside her asked with concern: "Zhi Xi, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Gu Zhixi came back to her senses and forced a smile: "Nothing, I just saw Ye Jin carrying Cang Cang upstairs, I didn't see what happened to Cang Cang, I don't know if he was feeling unwell."
Tao Minyi glanced down the stairs, then looked away: "It's okay, my brother and the others are still standing here so calmly. If there was anything wrong, they would have rushed up there long ago."
What Gu Zhixi was worried about was that if Zhou Yejin stayed upstairs taking care of Shen Weicang and never came down, what would she do tonight?
Thinking that tonight was her best chance, Gu Zhixi became anxious.
Lin Suning shook the wine in the glass, tilted his head back and drank it all in one gulp, then casually placed the empty glass on the tray of a passing servant.
Seeing the familiar deep meaning in his expression, Tao Yixi followed his gaze.
"Why are you staring at Gu Zhixi?"
Lin Suning turned around again and saw Gu Zhiyan chatting and laughing with three or five middle-aged men in suits, with a smile on his face.
Although Tao Yixi could not be said to have grown up with his cousin, she had some understanding of his character. When he showed this expression, it meant he was going to play a trick on her.
Lin Suning shook his head and said sarcastically: "Although I can accept that you appear around Cang Cang from time to time to show your courtesy, I really can't accept your IQ."
Tao Yixi sneered: "Why does my cousin have to say such high-sounding words?"
What do you mean by unacceptable intelligence?
I can't pretend to be magnanimous anymore, so I just say it directly. He knows it.
Lin Suning said, "Tonight, find someone to keep a close eye on Gu Zhixi. There will be a big show."
Tao Yixi's eyes changed: "What?"
"Shh," Lin Suning raised his index finger to his lips in a serious manner, "Don't let Gu Zhiyan hear it, otherwise if he finds out, he will stop Gu Zhixi's plan long ago, and then there's nothing for us to watch."
Tao Yixi looked at Gu Zhixi again, and seeing her looking at the stairs from time to time, he suddenly understood something.
He spoke with some contempt: "Gu Zhiyan is not a stupid person, how could he have such a stupid sister."
Lin Suning seemed to be in a good mood: "It was she who revealed the news about Cang Cang to me. It was a great favor for her to let me know Cang Cang. To be honest, I haven't thanked her yet. Today, I will return the favor and help her."
Tao Yixi looked at Lin Suning, whose face was full of cunningness that showed he was going to do something bad, and immediately looked down on him: "Cousin, you promised me before that you could accept that there was more than one person around Cang Cang, so why can't you help but do it?"
Lin Suning glanced at him and said, "Just because I can accept it doesn't mean I will fall in love with my love rival."
Seeing Tao Yixi's disdainful expression, he jokingly said, "But, cousin, I'm not a stingy person. How can I be happy about squeezing out my love rival? Of course, I want you to feel involved as well."
Zhou Yejin carried Shen Weicang into the room that Gu Zhiyan had reserved for her and gently placed her on the bed.
Just as he was about to stand up and go to the bathroom to get makeup remover to remove her makeup, Shen Weicang raised his hands to hold his neck and forced his eyes open a crack: "Ye Jin."
She had no strength at the moment and felt dizzy. There was a hint of coquettishness in her voice, which made Zhou Yejin, who had only drunk a few sips of wine, feel hot all over.
He gently took Shen Weicang's hand down: "Cang Cang, be good, I will help you remove your makeup. Sleeping with makeup on is not good for your skin."
As he said that, he went into the bathroom, took out a few bottles of stuff, and gently removed Shen Weicang's makeup.
Perhaps feeling the itch on his face, Shen Weicang closed his eyes, raised his hand and waved it, making an impatient "hmm" sound.
Zhou Yejin quickly helped her remove her makeup. At this time, the red clouds on Shen Weicang's fair little face due to drunkenness became a little lighter.
After all, the degree was not high, and Shen Weicang did not complain of a headache. Zhou Yejin just covered her with a quilt, and seeing that she slept soundly, he lay down beside her, lying on his side and gently looking at her sleeping face.
Originally, Zhou Yejin didn't plan to go downstairs again tonight, but she didn't expect someone to knock on the door not long after.
