Fortunately, Tang Qi left soon after, leaving only Wu Tian and Zhou Qian.
Zhou Qian crossed her arms, speaking with a hint of sarcasm, "Wu Tian, I never would have guessed."
"I didn't expect you to be so charming, even managing to trick the eldest daughter of the Tang family. It seems I need to look at you in a new light."
Wu Tian sighed and said, "Sister Zhou, please don't say that. Tang Qi and I are just ordinary friends, it's not like you imagine."
"Ordinary friends?" Zhou Qian raised an eyebrow.
She said with a smile, "You and she are ordinary friends, but she might not see you as just an ordinary friend. She likes you, can't you tell?"
Indeed, after all that had happened, Wu Tian could see that Tang Qi had feelings for him.
He shook his head and said, "Sister Zhou, I honestly don't know what's so good about me."
"Why would she take a liking to me? It's really strange."
Zhou Qian scrutinized Wu Tian for a moment. She could tell that Wu Tian was genuinely puzzled by this, which meant Wu Tian likely didn't have romantic intentions towards Tang Qi.
Thinking this, her mood improved slightly.
She thought to herself, "I didn't realize Wu Tian had such beautiful women around him. I need to speed things up."
So, she said to Wu Tian, "Wu Tian, don't leave yet. Can you escort me back?"
Wu Tian asked, "Didn't we agree that I'd go home after dinner? Why do I need to escort you back?"
Zhou Qian put on a delicate act and said, "I'm a girl, and I'm a little scared."
"What if I encounter hooligans, and you're not there, what would I do?"
Wu Tian felt that Zhou Qian was talking nonsense. This woman was quite fierce; hooligans would likely not get any advantage from her.
However, Zhou Qian's office wasn't far from here, so he didn't say much and readily agreed.
Wu Tian escorted Zhou Qian back to her office.
As he was about to leave, he heard Zhou Qian say again, "Wu Tian, since you're already here, why the rush to leave? Come, have a drink with your sister."
Wu Tian said, "Sister, what are you doing? Didn't I say I don't drink?"
Zhou Qian replied, "That was when we were outside. It's not a big deal if you get drunk here."
"Sister has some excellent foreign liquor, you should try it."
Without waiting for Wu Tian's reply, Zhou Qian turned and went to the freezer, taking out a bottle of foreign liquor.
She poured two glasses and handed one to Wu Tian.
Wu Tian had no choice but to drink with Zhou Qian.
After finishing the first glass, Wu Tian felt his body heat up.
He wasn't a good drinker and knew he couldn't have any more.
So he said, "Sister Zhou, I really can't drink. Let's stop here. I'll be going now."
As Wu Tian prepared to get up and leave, Zhou Qian pulled him back.
"Wu Tian, please don't leave me," Zhou Qian's voice was slurred with intoxication.
Wu Tian turned his head and saw that Zhou Qian's cheeks were flushed red, clearly drunk!
"No way!" Wu Tian was stunned. "If you can't drink, why are you drinking?"
He quickly said, "Sister Zhou, you're drunk. You should rest properly."
But to his surprise, Zhou Qian pulled Wu Tian into her embrace and held him down.
As his face touched Zhou Qian's body, Wu Tian felt a sense of suffocation.
He struggled to get up, but Zhou Qian kissed him on the lips!
Wu Tian's mind went blank.
He hadn't intended to do anything of that sort with Zhou Qian.
But for some reason, as Zhou Qian kissed him, he lost control and started to undress her.
Zhou Qian's hand slowly reached inside Wu Tian's shirt. The moment their skin touched, Wu Tian jolted awake!
Where am I? Who am I? What am I doing?!
"Sister Zhou!" He jumped up abruptly.
"I have something to do at home. My pigs are about to give birth, so I'm leaving!"
Saying that, he grabbed his pants and fled in a panic.
On the sofa, Zhou Qian slowly opened her eyes.
Wu Tian had no idea that a businesswoman like Zhou Qian could actually hold her liquor quite well.
If she couldn't drink, she would surely be taken advantage of, so she wasn't drunk at all.
"He ran off again..." Zhou Qian said with a hint of complaint.
"Wu Tian, keep running. Sooner or later, I will have you."
As she said this, she thought of the craziness just moments ago, and her face turned a little red.
"It really felt so good..."
Outside the restaurant, Wu Tian shook his head vigorously, his heart pounding.
Zhou Qian was too terrifying. Just by a hair's breadth, his position as a section-level cadre might have been compromised.
"It seems I should come to this place less often in the future."
Wu Tian muttered to himself, "If I really make a mistake, how will I face people later..."
Wu Tian spoke to himself, preparing to hail a taxi home.
But at that moment, a startled cry came from ahead.
"Robbery! Someone's being robbed!"
Wu Tian froze, and then he saw a man running past him with something in his arms.
Ahead, another middle-aged man was in hot pursuit.
Wu Tian had always been a warm-hearted person and naturally wouldn't stand by idly in such a situation.
He took off in pursuit, catching up to the man in mere seconds and bringing him down to the ground.
"Behave yourself!" Wu Tian pinned him down and said in a low voice.
The middle-aged man caught up, panting for breath.
He was a man in his fifties, wearing a suit and gold-rimmed glasses, clearly a businessman.
Wu Tian retrieved the briefcase from the robber and handed it back to the middle-aged man, saying, "It's okay now. The item has been recovered."
The middle-aged man was overjoyed and kept thanking Wu Tian, "Thank you, thank you so much!"
Wu Tian smiled and replied, "It was just a small effort, no need to be so polite."
"Since I've caught the person, I'll leave the rest to you."
The surrounding crowd gathered, and some helpful people even took out their phones to call the police.
Soon, the police arrived and arrested the robber.
It was estimated that the robber would be detained for at least some time.
After dealing with the police, the man said gratefully to Wu Tian, "Brother, I really owe you today."
"This bag contains very important things! It would have been a disaster if they were lost."
He politely handed Wu Tian his business card, "Young man, give me your contact information too."
"I have an urgent matter to attend to today. I must thank you properly another day!"
Wu Tian looked at the business card and saw that this was quite an important figure.
