“Chairman Lin……”


  Lin Yuetong aside, everyone else in the room was also confused by Yang Baixiong’s actions.

  Yang Baixiong was so terrified that his soul had scattered. He was more afraid for his life than of the opinions of others. “Miss Lin, I really think that only capable, rich, handsome, educated and elegant men are worthy of you!”


  Pei Yucheng remained mum, which was enough to make Yang Baixiong tremble. He gritted his teeth and picked up the bottle. “Miss Lin…… To prove my sincerity, I shall finish this bottle! Let me apologize to you! Please forgive me!”


  Yang Baixiong twisted the cap and began to gulp away. The people around him tried to stop him but to no avail.

  “Get lost! Get away from me!”


  No one was supposed to stop him from saving his own life!

  Initially, he had thought that he could befriend Pei Yucheng. However, the situation had turned into a nightmare instantly.

  Zhong Xiaowei and Zhong Xuening were flabbergasted.

  “Sister, what is President Yang doing? Did that woman cast a spell on him?” Zhong Xiaowei asked.

  Zhong Xuening frowned in confusion. “It’s odd…… What did Lin Yan do?”


  Even if Yang Baixiong was drunk, he couldn’t have possibly knelt down in front of anyone.

  Even a smart man like Chu Jiayao was puzzled. “Nanxu, did Yang Baixiong see a ghost?”


  He had assumed that Pei Nanxu would act like a hero and save the beauty. Who would have expected this turn of events?

  Pei Nanxu was speechless……

  It wasn’t a ghost……

  It was something scarier……

  Lin Yan was close to despair at the sight of Yang Baixiong creating such a scene. Could he be any more dramatic? Was he trying to announce it to the whole world?

  Lin Yan coughed softly and muttered, “Mr. Pei, shall we go home?”


  Pei Yucheng squeezed the girl’s fingers and answered softly, “It’s still early.”


  Lin Yan was dismayed after hearing Pei Yucheng’s answer.

  She inched closer to him to try to conceal their interlocked hands and then asked cautiously, “Mr. Pei…… There is no need to waste time here…… We should go back and rest early…… You had a tiring day and……”


  Pei Yucheng remained impassive. “I’m not in a hurry.”


  Lin Yan was speechless……

  She was in a hurry!

  If Yang Baixiong were to continue to do this, she would be finished!

  Lin Yuetong and the rest were getting closer to them, so Lin Yan began to panic.

  She squeezed Pei Yucheng’s hand and blurted out, “Mr. Pei! Let’s go home! Every minute of the night is precious!”


  Pei Yucheng was speechless……

  He relaxed and chuckled in amusement before he turned to the girl and replied, “Okay.”


  Lin Yan was speechless……

  She had just realized what she had blurted out in a fluster. F*ck! What was that?

  Forget it……

  At least, Pei Yucheng had relented……
