nMo Yuanxiu looked at Lu Manman meaningfully.

nWhat was this unpredictable woman thinking?

nLu Manman was indeed smart.

nHe had given her a look during the lunch banquet, which Lu Manman immediately understood. She knew that if she made Wen Yun uncomfortable in the afternoon, it would be easier to control him at night. At the same time, her act of protecting Wen Yun earlier also made it easier for him not to suspect her. What was most important was that the kiss with him in the afternoon had evidently angered Jiang Yiyao, and an angry woman was always best used.

nEverything was in place.

nAll that was lacking was whether Lu Manman was willing to do it.

nHe slowly opened the door.

nInside, Wen Yun was still leaning against the couch, and the glass of water in front of him was empty.

nIt seemed like he had worried too much.

nLu Manman hated Wen Yun to this extent?

nMo Yuanxiu quietly returned to his seat to watch the people in the room sing.

nLooking bored, Gu Xin walked toward Lu Manman with the microphone. “Sing a song.”

n“I don’t know how to.” Lu Manman shook her head.

nShe had seen Wen Yun drink the glass of water with her own eyes but still could not put her finger on how she felt. She could not figure out what ending she wanted at this point, but no matter what, she could not let herself be softhearted.

nShe was just a little nervous.

n“Come on, sing a song.” Gu Xin dragged Lu Manman to the karaoke room.

nShe chose the song “Person by My Bedside”.

nLu Manman found the lyrics to be really appropriate.

n“The him by my side, sharing a strange bed and daydreaming at the ends of the earth. All I got in return for love was a lifetime of entanglement. What course to follow? Where did he come from? What worries do we have? Oh, the person by my bedside. I’ll forget it and reincarnate. Be rid of worldly affairs…”

nForget it and be rid of worldly affairs.

nLu Manman smiled as she sang, but her eyes started to sting.

nIf she could reincarnate by forgetting it, then why did she have to relive it again?!

nShe turned to look at Wen Yun, who was leaning against the couch.

nWen Yun’s eyes were closed. It was said that the drug’s effect was slow, about half an hour.

nThat was because it needed time.

nAfter the music ended, the crowd applauded.

nShe had never sung so well in the past. Perhaps it’s because she was thinking more deeply this time.

nGu Xin pouted unhappily. “You sing so well! We’re done here!”

nLu Manman did not have the time to bicker with Gu Xin. She simply picked up her glass and downed it with Gu Xin, who was still in shock but had no choice but to down her glass.

nFollowing that, Lu Manman drank a lot with everyone else.

nShe really had a lot to drink.

nShe rarely touched alcohol and only grabbed a drink at the dining table when she could not hold a candle to Gu Xin. But even then, she did not drink much. Her tolerance for alcohol was not good to begin with, so after one round, she was really drunk.

nShe had to be committed to her acting.

nWalking in a zigzag manner, Lu Manman left as everyone else watched.

nGu Xin thought for a while before running out after informing Di Yi.

nShe had just reached the corridor when Lu Manman could not take it anymore. She ran to the toilet and threw up.

nGu Xin patted her back and asked, “Is there a need to do this? You can’t even drink alcohol. Why did you have to drink so much? You’re just like your Wen Yun.”

n“Wen Yun doesn’t belong to me.” Lu Manman rinsed her mouth and wiped it.

n“I really don’t understand,” Gu Xin said. “Wen Yun is still in the private room. Do you need me to send both of you home?”

n“Gu Xin, don’t bother about me now. I have a mission for you.”

n“I won’t do anything illegal.”

n“Don’t worry. I don’t want you to die yet.” Lu Manman tried her best to stay clear-headed. “Try to get Jiang Yiyao to send Wen Yun home.”

n“Why?”

n“You know I won’t answer you. Just help me.” With that, Lu Manman puked two more times.

nGu Xin was speechless. She watched as Lu Manman staggered out of the washroom.

nWhat was going on?!

nShe ran out angrily.

nShe had just left when she saw Lu Manman fall head first into a man’s arms. It was none other than Mo Yuanxiu.

nMo Yuanxiu smiled at Lu Manman.

nGu Xin felt like Lu Manman was digging her own grave.

nMo Yuanxiu was such a scumbag!

nShe angrily walked away.

nMo Yuanxiu’s eyes flickered, and he looked down at Lu Manman’s head on his chest. “Miss Lu, I can send you back, but don’t vomit on me. You can’t afford it!”

nLu Manman was still holding onto Mo Yuanxiu’s shirt. When she heard what he said, she felt even worse.

nShe clenched her teeth and kept quiet.

n“Silence means consent.” Mo Yuanxiu suddenly turned Lu Manman around, and with a rough movement, Lu Manman felt as if her world was spinning.

nMo Yuanxiu, don’t you know that drunk people shouldn’t be swaying about?!

nYou’d better not let me catch you drunk!

nLu Manman clenched her teeth. She felt as if the world was spinning around her because of Mo Yuanxiu. Before long, she was placed inside a car. She slumped against the seat and closed her eyes to regulate her breathing.

nMo Yuanxiu did not say another word. They were both silent, and the faint smell of tobacco lingered around them.

nThe car drove very quickly.

nAt the entrance of the Lu family’s villa.

nMo Yuanxiu turned to look at the weak Lu Manman. “Do you want me to carry you back, or do you want to walk on your own?”

n“I’ll go on my own.” Lu Manman was rational enough.

nIf Mo Yuanxiu sent her home at such a late time, her parents would surely be triggered.

nShe struggled to get up to open the car door.

nDid Mo Yuanxiu have no manners at all? As a man, should he not open the door for a woman?!

nIt took Lu Manman a while before she could open the car door and get off.

nMo Yuanxiu suddenly pulled her arm back forcefully, and her nose knocked against his chest, making her tear up from the pain.

n“What’s wrong with you?!” Lu Manman was so angry she wanted to kill someone.

nMo Yuanxiu stared at Lu Manman’s angry face and even smiled. Damn it, was it so funny that she was drunk?!

n“Miss Lu, do you know something?” Mo Yuanxiu’s voice was low, and his face was very close to hers. As he spoke, she could practically feel the heat from his mouth on her burning cheek. “I don’t like the way you and Wen Yun kiss for some reason. Tell me. Did you sleep with him?”
