Chapter 91: Chapter 91 He Must Have Done It On Purpose _1
Translator: 549690339
Somehow, I had the faintest of forebodings, feeling that Ayu had a tough challenge for me.
Years of experience told me that whenever a man started to find you interesting at a drinks table, he was sure to set traps for you next.
Under normal circumstances, I would definitely reject such a proposition.
But today, Gu Yuanzhou was present.
And, Gu Yuanzhou didn’t stop it, perhaps everything was orchestrated by him.
So, I fell right into his trap…
After all, to them, I was still just a newbie at the workplace and it would be strange if I appeared too worldly too soon.
“Of course, I’m willing!”
“Well then, drink this cup of liquor for your President Gu first!”
“Um? Why should he drink this glass of wine?”
“Him! He broke his promise! In the past four years, he’s stood me up ten times. Each time he stood me up equals a glass of liquor. So, he has to drink ten glasses tonight!”
I turned my head to look at Gu Yuanzhou again.
“President Gu, is this true?”
“Yes, it is.”
Gu Yuanzhou didn’t hide anything and admitted it outright.
“Alright, I’ll drink!”
Like all newbies in the workplace, I obediently drained the entire glass of grape wine.
Ayu clapped and then poured me another glass,
“Not bad, girl. You can hold your liquor. Come, drink another glass!”
This time, I was not naive, I smiled and said,
“Sure! But it’s not fun for me to keep drinking alone. How about I join you for a drink instead!”
I lifted my glass first, clinking it with his.
Ayu was very straightforward, he picked up his glass and drained it.
“Your turn!”
I didn’t refuse and directly drank the whole glass.
After downing two glasses, I felt a little tipsy.
Ayu filled my glass once more,
“Come on, keep drinking!”
However, just as I picked up this glass of red wine, Gu Yuanzhou reached over and took it away.
“That’s enough, don’t drink anymore! You’ll get drunk if you continue!”
Ayu pointed at Gu Yuanzhou and laughed,
“Are you being overly protective?”
“Let me drink for her!”
In the end, Gu Yuanzhou drank that glass of red wine himself.
I sat for a while, then I said to Gu Yuanzhou,
“President Gu, I’m feeling a bit dizzy, so how about I lie down on the couch for a while? Call me when you’re ready to go.”
“Alright!”
In truth, even though I was slightly intoxicated now, my mind was still clear.
I merely pretended to be drunk to divert their attention and lower their guard.
After laying down on the couch, I covered my face with a blanket.
Meanwhile, Agu and Gu Yuanzhou continued drinking…
The two carried on their conversation on many matters.
Perhaps because I was a bit far from them, waves of drowsiness hit me, making me want to sleep.
But just then, I heard something shocking that instantly sobered me up.
“When you have time, can you help me deal with someone? Do it cleanly!”
“Since you’re asking, how can I refuse?”
“Fine, it’s him!”
I glanced through the gap in my blanket and saw Gu Yuanzhou sending a document to Ayu’s phone.
Ayu took a glance,
“No big deal! I assure worry-free in three days.”
“Fair enough, I’ll treat you to a meal once it’s done!”
“What meal? I fancy this girl. How about you leave her to me?”
“Get lost! Don’t even think about it!”
Gu Yuanzhou flatly rejected him.
Ayu chuckled,
“They say don’t shit where you eat. Are you breaking this rule?”
“Cut the crap, in any case, you can’t touch her!”
“Alright, alright, I definitely won’t touch someone you care for. That’s enough for me, I’m full and I’ve had my fill to drink. I’ve got to go!”
Listening to this, my heart gave a jump.
Did Gu Yuanzhou want to get rid of Shen Yishu?
He had told me before that he would not allow Ye Mengyan to be with Shen Yishu.
Could it be that he was trying to separate them in this way?
Before I could figure it out, Gu Yuanzhou walked over and patted me on the shoulder,
“Xiaoyun, wake up, we need to go home!”
“Oh, okay!”
I didn’t pretend to be asleep anymore, and quickly sat up.
At this time, Gu Yuanzhou seemed quite drunk, his cheeks flushed red, even his eyes were red.
I quickly paid the bill and walked out with him.
He seemed very steady, but when going downstairs, he wobbled and almost fell. I rushed forward to support him.
“President Gu, are you okay?”
“I’m fine, just… drank five or six cups, it’s nothing.”
But, from the tone of his speech, it was clear that he was drunk.
I opened the car door,
“President Gu, you sit in the back, I’ll call a driver!”
“Okay!”
Gu Yuanzhou was still a very calm man, he wouldn’t act rash at such times.
It seemed that he was indeed drunk, otherwise, he wouldn’t let me call a driver.
About ten minutes later, the driver came and then we drove home.
Half an hour later, we returned to Maple Mansion, but Ye Mengyan was still not back.
I turned on the light and helped Gu Yuanzhou to his bedroom.
Just as we reached the bed, he lost his balance and fell, while I was holding him.
Being petite, I was pressed under him.
And, he didn’t seem to have any intention of moving, instead, he tightly hugged me.
I tried to push him away.
But he, with a swoop of drunken courage, clung to me, resting his head on my chest.
Just like the sweet times after our wedding.
He seemed to be immersed in the past, eyes closed, calling my name over and over,
“Ayun! Ayun!”
For a moment, I couldn’t distinguish between reality and fantasy.
After a long time, I calmed down, pushed him away forcefully,
“President Gu, you’re drunk!”
Perhaps I exerted too much force, and he was pushed to roll over.
“President Gu, Gu Yuanzhou…”
I originally wanted to let him move a bit, and help him take off his shoes, but he didn’t respond.
After a while, he called out, “Water!”
“Oh, okay!”
I quickly went upstairs to get some water.
At this point, Gu Yuanzhou still looked flushed, his eyes deep locked, it seemed he was thoroughly drunk.
I was startled, this seems to be a good opportunity.
If I put the medicine Ding Yinuo gave me into this glass of water, and then have Gu Yuanzhou drink it, my lingering grudge and resentment would be avenged.
However…
What troubled me was, I still didn’t have definite evidence to prove that Gu Yuanzhou was the culprit.
Especially when Little Juanmao confessed that it was Damaha who killed for the sake of greed, it doesn’t seem to be related to Gu Yuanzhou.
What if I wrongfully kill him?
As I went to reach for the bottle of medicine in my bag, I hesitated again.
At this point, Gu Yuanzhou suddenly grabbed my clothes. I lost my balance and fell on the bed, and he took the opportunity to hug me from behind.
“Ayun, don’t leave!”
“Gu Yuanzhou, have you ever cared about Ayun?”
“She’s my wife, why wouldn’t I care about her?”
“If you really cared about her, why did you want to kill her?”
“It wasn’t me, how could I hurt her…I love her so much…”
He seemed to be thoroughly drunk, and his words came out slurred and unclear.
I tried to push him away, but couldn’t break free…After who knows how long, suddenly footsteps approached.
Then someone walked in.
It was Ye Mengyan.
She went into a shock seeing Gu Yuanzhou laying down on the bed, holding me.
