nShe gritted her teeth in anger and stared menacingly at Yan Rusheng.

nWen Xuxu gave him a meaningful look to convey her message: Didn’t he know that she couldn’t drink at all? Don’t you know I get drunk after a glass?

nPeople might be unaware of her low tolerance level for alcohol, but Yan Rusheng had seen her drink on countless occasions. How could he be unaware?

nHe’s doing this on purpose. Definitely.

n“What’s the problem?” Yan Rusheng feigned surprise and raised his eyebrows. “Is toasting President Ming beneath your dignity?”

nWen Xuxu was speechless…

nShe had been tougher than him when they were young, why didn’t she murder him when she had the chance?

nIt was too late to regret it now.

nHer vision shifted to Ming Zhongsheng and she smiled apologetically. “No, I didn’t mean it that way. It’s just that I am unable to hold my liquor well.”

n“Your grandfather could easily drink more than what Third Master Yan’s grandfather and I could have during our gatherings. You are his granddaughter, surely the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree?” Ming Zhongsheng had a kind smile but he sounded like he was challenging her. “Are you looking down on me as an old man?”

nThis girl had grown up with Third Master Yan and she was like a granddaughter to the elderly Mrs. Yan. Nevertheless, they weren’t related by blood.

nThis girl was quite pretty and capable. He had a hunch that if she stayed beside Yan Rusheng, she would be a hindrance to his plans.

nHe had to find an opportunity to speak to the elderly Mrs. Yan regarding the marriage between their two families.

nHis words were too serious and Wen Xuxu hesitated before lifting the glass in front of her. She had no choice but to propose a toast in this situation.

nAs she raised her glass, Yan Rusheng unexpectedly raised his glass as well and said, “My glass is full, you can drink from mine.”

nHis tone was firm.

nThis glass could fit two to three servings of liquor and it was already 70 percent filled. Just by looking at the glass, Wen Xuxu felt as though she was already intoxicated.

nShe said, “Let me do it myself.”

nShe barely finished her sentence when Yan Rusheng stretched his hand under the table and pinched her thigh.

nHis action was a warning for her not to defy him again!

nDespicable fellow!

nWen Xuxu could barely control herself and grabbed the glass in anger. She smiled and looked at Ming Zhongsheng. “President Ming, I can only drink a glass, this toast is to your good health.”

nIn reality, she couldn’t even finish a single glass.

nShe gave it her best shot and held her breath as she downed the glass right away.

nShe put down the empty glass and stuffed her mouth with food. She began to slowly chew her food with her mouth full.

nAlcohol had an instantaneous effect on her. Within ten minutes, her face looked like a freshly cooked prawn. She was completely red.

nHer head was spinning and she felt dizzy. Her throat was parched so she gulped down glasses of juice.

nYan Rusheng glanced sideways and looked at her. He gave a gloating smile when he saw her symptoms.

nGreat!

nHe calmly turned his face towards Ming Zhongsheng and nodded politely. “Grandpa Ming, Secretary Wen seems to be drunk. I need to send her home right away. My grandmother will blame me if anything should go wrong.”

nEveryone knew that Wang Daqin doted dearly on Wen Xuxu. Wang Daqin had even hired her personally for the job.

nYan Rusheng’s secretary had to be Wen Xuxu. They grew up together so there wouldn’t be any romantic feelings involved. Neither would there be a possibility of the secretary seducing her boss just like a drama series.
