Although the man in front of her was not her destination, she had never intended to get anything from Zhou Qi from the beginning.

The two chatted while preparing dinner.

Originally Qiao Xuying was the chef, but this time she became the helper.

Soon, a simple yet hearty home-cooked meal was ready: scrambled eggs with tomatoes, shredded pork with green peppers, shredded potatoes with vinegar, smashed cucumbers and fried peanuts with salt, plus some cooked food, the table suddenly became lively.

After taking a bite, Qiao Xueying said in surprise: "It's delicious, Brother Zhou, your cooking skills are amazing, it's even more delicious than what is served in restaurants outside."

"As long as you like it." Zhou Qi responded with a smile.

"Such delicious dishes, I have to eat more and drink more." Qiao Xuying poured herself a glass of red wine and filled Zhou Qi's glass with white wine. "Brother Zhou, thank you for your hospitality today. Today we won against Huaning Company, and this meal is also to celebrate the victory. Come on, cheers!"

The two of them clinked their glasses lightly, and the atmosphere was very pleasant.

When the two were talking, Qiao Xuying joked, "We said cheers, why do you look like you're raising fish?" Seeing that Zhou Qi had already drunk several glasses of white wine, with a faint blush on his face, "If you keep going like this, I'll definitely get you drunk."

Despite this, Zhou Qi still drank the wine in his glass generously and said with a smile: "Okay, then I will drink with you for a while longer."

Seeing this, Qiao Xueying picked up the bottle and prepared to pour another glass for Zhou Qi. But Zhou Qi stopped her with a smile: "I don't want to cause you trouble after getting drunk. What if you refuse to leave?"

After saying that, he opened a can of beer.

The liquor was enough for him, if he drank any more he would probably lose control.

"That doesn't matter." Qiao Xuying smiled and said, "I really want to see you when you're drunk. Maybe you'll become gentle, like a little lamb. Just thinking about it makes me look forward to it."

She continued, "No, I have the final say today. You promised me that you have to listen to me about this dinner. So, no matter what, you have to drink with me."

Zhou Qi shook his head helplessly. Since the words had been spoken, he had no choice but to fulfill his promise.

At this time, Qiao Xuying stood up, picked up her bag and walked towards the bedroom, saying that she was going to change into more comfortable clothes.

Shortly after the door closed, she took out a hangover pill from her bag and swallowed it.

A moment later, Qiao Xuying came out wearing a lavender nightgown.

Although this dress is not too revealing, it just shows her charm perfectly.

Seeing Qiao Xuying like this, Zhou Qi was a little dazed for a moment.

She noticed his gaze and her face flushed, but her heart was full of joy.

"Have you seen enough?" Qiao Xueying asked, turning around mischievously. "Is it beautiful? Today I specially allow you to appreciate it for a while longer."

"You are so beautiful, but this dress... is a bit bold!" Zhou Qi said frankly. He never pretended to be indifferent to beautiful women.

"You think it's bold?" Qiao Xuying smiled mischievously at Zhou Qi after sitting down, "I think I'm already dressed very conservatively. Sometimes, I might be more casual."

Zhou Qi was sipping beer when he heard this and accidentally choked on the beer and coughed a few times.

Qiao Xuying originally hoped that something would happen between them, but the reality was that Zhou Qi was just admiring her and had no further thoughts.

It was this restraint that made Qiao Xuying like him even more.

So she changed the topic.

As she drank one drink after another, her head began to feel heavy even after taking two bottles of hangover pills.

She could see that Zhou Qi was also a little drunk, but not to the unconscious level as she expected.

She herself was already beginning to be unable to hold on.

She propped up her chin, looked at Zhou Qi with a dazed look, and said with a silly smile: "Brother Qi, how can you drink so much?"

"Do you mind if I smoke a cigarette?" Zhou Qi asked.

He hadn't smoked a cigarette since he came here. Now that he was drunk, he wanted to smoke to sober up. In his opinion, this meal was enough.

Qiao Xueying nodded vaguely. After getting permission, Zhou Qi lit a cigarette, but only smoked half of it before extinguishing it in a beer can, exhaled lightly and said, "I'm very happy tonight, you should rest too."

After hearing this, Qiao Xuying sobered up a little and said, "I still want to continue drinking. You promised."

"That's really enough." Zhou Qi replied.

"Do you hate me?" Qiao Xuying asked.

"Why do you think so?" Zhou Qi asked back.

"Then I don't hate you." Qiao Xuying stood up, staggered to Zhou Qi, looked down at him and said, "Do you like me? I don't ask you to love me, just a little bit of liking is enough, no matter my appearance or anything else..."

Zhou Qi rubbed his eyebrows, smiled and said, "You are really drunk." Then he got up and left.

But Qiao Xuying reached out and pressed his shoulder, and said firmly: "I'm not drunk. I remember what happened that night very clearly. Since then, I found that you have lived in my heart. Whether you believe it or not, I believe that I will never fall in love with anyone else in this life."

"I don't want to lie to you..." She said softly, "I secretly drank two bottles of hangover medicine while changing clothes. I just want you to stay a little longer, even if it's just for one night."

"It seems that I still can't hide it from you." She whispered, with a hint of disappointment in her eyes, "You bad guy, you don't know how to give in to girls, can't you pretend to be drunk and let me take care of you for once?"

"Whatever." Her tone became firm, "You have to stay tonight whether you want to leave or not."

"Just try to leave," she said defiantly, "I'll follow you wherever you go. If you don't care about my safety, just try it."

Zhou Qi felt that his romantic luck seemed to be a little too good recently.

Faced with a situation like Qiao Xuying's, he felt helpless.

Looking at her like that, Zhou Qi knew that forcing her wouldn't work.

He rubbed his face, trying to sober himself up, but the alcohol had already made him a little dizzy.

"I'm actually a very bad person, you don't know the real me. I have many women..." Zhou Qi was interrupted before he could finish his words.

"I don't believe it." Qiao Xueying looked him straight in the eye. "If that's the case, why didn't you just attack me before? Is it because you think I'm dirty or not pretty enough?"

"I had never had any intimate contact with any man before I met you...You also said that my legs were beautiful and gave me a perfect score."

"You can't fool me," she said firmly. "Even if you really have a lot of women, what does it matter? I don't mind one more."

Zhou Qi carried her into the room, gently wrapped her in a blanket, and said softly, "Have a good rest."
