Mr Gu's First Doting Marriage-Chapter 823 - 824: Drunk
Chapter 823: Chapter 824: Drunk
Later, Xia Yangyang suddenly realized.
Why did Gu Zhaohan introduce her to everyone, then introduce himself to others?
She’s just a minor reporter, yet at the table, she seemed to take on the role of the protagonist.
Xia Yangyang felt a little uncomfortable inside.
During the meal, Xia Yangyang tried to be as silent as possible, just focusing on eating.
The others were talking about project development and future market prospects.
...
Xia Yangyang just listened in casually.
But even when Xia Yangyang desperately wanted to blend into the background.
The others just wouldn’t ignore her.
Halfway through the meal, the project heads and managers began to take turns toasting to Xia Yangyang.
This was an unusual situation.
These were people with positions and pride, so how could they lower themselves to offer her a drink?
Xia Yangyang didn’t want to drink.
Because she knew her tolerance was poor and her behavior when drunk wasn’t great.
She had made a fool of herself more than once when drunk.
But those people were skilled in smooth talk.
A few sentences from them and Xia Yangyang found herself unable to decline, having to drink no matter how much she tried to refuse.
Laobai and the others were already nearly drunk.
They couldn’t be expected to come and rescue her.
Xia Yangyang unconsciously turned her head to look at Gu Zhaohan.
Gu Zhaohan knew.
In fact, she couldn’t drink.
But there Gu Zhaohan sat, leisurely eating and drinking, completely ignoring her.
Xia Yangyang sighed inwardly.
It seemed naive of her to even consider asking Gu Zhaohan for help.
In the end, Xia Yangyang had no choice but to drink a little.
But after two cups,
Xia Yangyang’s entire demeanor changed.
That’s how she was, losing all rationality as soon as she drank.
Later, it became Xia Yangyang who actively went to toast others.
Drinking heartily.
The atmosphere at the table also lifted.
Everyone was talking and laughing, enjoying the conversation.
After making her way around, Xia Yangyang was already unstable on her feet.
But in the end, Xia Yangyang still managed to stumble over to where Gu Zhaohan was sitting.
Xia Yangyang picked up the bottle from the table and filled Gu Zhaohan’s cup.
Then, somewhat slurred, she said, “Gu Zhaohan, there’s something I want to tell you.”
Gu Zhaohan looked up, his gaze falling on Xia Yangyang’s flushed, clearly drunken face, his voice calm and clear, “What do you want to say?”
Xia Yangyang with one hand on Gu Zhaohan’s shoulder, “Gu Zhaohan, I’m sorry.”
After saying this, Xia Yangyang insisted on clinking cups with him.
Gu Zhaohan didn’t reach for his cup.
So, Xia Yangyang picked up Gu Zhaohan’s cup from the table.
Holding one cup in each hand, she clinked them together, and even muttered a “Cheers” to herself.
Then she drained the red wine in her cup.
Zhu Xiaorong was the only one at the banquet who wasn’t drinking.
Seeing Xia Yangyang’s drunken state, she was genuinely worried.
When everyone was urging Xia Yangyang to drink, Zhu Xiaorong originally wanted to interject.
But seeing Gu Zhaohan appear unmoved.
Zhu Xiaorong thought to herself, this President Gu is Yangyang’s nephew after all.
He shouldn’t stand by and do nothing.
Yet he watched the whole thing as if it was none of his concern, maintaining a safe distance.
By the time Zhu Xiaorong realized what was happening.
Xia Yangyang was already drunk, toasting all over the place, unstoppable.
After finishing one cup, Xia Yangyang poured another.
Continuing, she said, “Gu Zhaohan, seeing you today really upset me. Do you know why I’m upset? Because you’re not the same anymore. You gave up medicine, now you’ve become a businessman, I don’t think this suits you, it’s not right for you, get it?”
