As Jian Mubai drained the wine from his cup, Han Yunuo clenched her fists, her face as terrifying as it could be.
The others were also bewildered by Jian Mubai's actions, unsure of what had happened.
Shen Keqin watched Jian Mubai coldly. The mention of last night made her wish she could slap him twice.
Her expression was icy. "Since you're here to apologize, one cup of wine won't suffice."
Jian Mubai smiled slightly at her. "Miss Qinqin is right. One cup of wine lacks sincerity. Then I will use this entire bottle to apologize."
Shen Keqin: "..."
Before Shen Keqin could speak, Jian Mubai had already picked up the whole bottle of whiskey and started drinking.
The atmosphere in the private room was quiet and eerie. No one dared to speak.
Han Yunuo looked at Jian Mubai coldly, her anger threatening to consume her.
Others might truly believe Jian Mubai was here to apologize, but only she knew his intentions perfectly well.
Damn it!!!
Jian Mubai didn't even blink as he drank the wine. Only after finishing the bottle did he smile at Shen Keqin. "Miss Qinqin, are you satisfied? Can you forgive me now?"
Shen Keqin frowned at him, completely unable to understand what he was doing.
He had chased her away last night, and today he was here to apologize.
Was this a slap followed by a sweet date?
She didn't know if Jian Mubai's mention of forgiveness was about last night's incident or everything, so she let out a cold laugh. "Not satisfied. You drank my wine, so what will I drink?"
Jian Mubai suddenly reached out and touched her head. Shen Keqin froze for a moment. She couldn't remember the last time Jian Mubai had touched her head.
"I'll go get you a new one right away."
The drug took effect quickly. Jian Mubai felt a heat spread through his body, his blood surging, his breathing rapid, and sweat beaded on his forehead.
To avoid losing his composure in front of Shen Keqin, he quickly left the private room.
As he passed Han Yunuo, he shot her a cold glance.
When Jian Mubai's icy gaze swept over her, Han Yunuo stiffened, her face turning as pale as paper.
In that instant, she saw killing intent in Jian Mubai's eyes.
After Jian Mubai left, the awkward silence in the private room lasted for a few seconds before the lively atmosphere resumed.
Han Yunuo clenched her fists. She stared coldly at Shen Keqin for a moment, then gritted her teeth and got up to leave the private room.
Shen Keqin's brow furrowed. What was going on?
After sitting for a while and seeing that Han Yunuo hadn't returned, she realized something was wrong and got up to leave the private room.
...
Han Yunuo caught up with Jian Mubai at a corner. Jian Mubai was leaning against the wall, looking like he was in pain.
"Jian Mubai!"
She rushed over and grabbed his arm. Seeing him gasping for breath, his cheeks flushed, she angrily hit him. "You're no longer Shen Keqin's bodyguard, so why are you still drinking for her?"
Jian Mubai was suffering from the intense heat, sweat drenching his hair. He felt unbearable and wanted to vent fiercely.
Upon seeing Han Yunuo, he pushed her against the wall and grabbed her by the neck.
"Don't use those disgusting methods on Qinqin. This is the last time. If there's a next time, I'll cripple you!"
Han Yunuo grabbed Jian Mubai's hands around her neck with both her hands and smirked. "She's here looking for a man, and you're still worried about her."
"It's none of your business!"
Even with Jian Mubai's hands around her neck, Han Yunuo showed no fear. She smirked and said, "Then this state you're in now is my doing."
Her hand trailed down Jian Mubai's firm, sexy arm, slowly making its way towards his body. "You can't handle this state yourself. I can help you."
"I don't need it!"
Jian Mubai released Han Yunuo and was about to leave when she pushed him against the wall.
Jian Mubai's tolerance had reached its limit. He was like a balloon about to burst, at the brink of explosion.
"Are you afraid of me? There's no one here to help you but me right now."
As she spoke, Han Yunuo's hand reached for Jian Mubai's belt.
When Shen Keqin arrived, she witnessed this scene.
Han Yunuo was kneeling in front of Jian Mubai, her hand reaching to undo his belt. Jian Mubai had a look of enjoyment on his face. It was easy to guess what they were doing.
The lights in the corridor were dim, but Shen Keqin found them blindingly bright.
She had seen many such scenes on television, but this was the first time she had witnessed it in real life. She never expected the performers to be Jian Mubai and Han Yunuo.
Her blood seemed to freeze. Her chest ached, and her eyes burned.
She used to think people were being overly dramatic when they said their hearts were breaking, but today, she finally understood.
Not wanting to watch their sordid act any longer, she turned and ran away, tears streaming down her face.
Jian Mubai, tormented by the drug, was losing his sanity. But the moment he saw Shen Keqin, he seemed to snap back to awareness. He shoved Han Yunuo away violently and chased after Shen Keqin.
Han Yunuo fell hard onto the floor, landing on her backside. It hurt, and she felt utterly humiliated.
Seeing Jian Mubai chase after Shen Keqin, she was enraged and slammed her fist onto the ground.
Her hand throbbed painfully, and she cursed under her breath, feeling increasingly wronged and furious.
Damn Jian Mubai, damn Shen Keqin!
May they both die!
Jian Mubai quickly caught up with Shen Keqin. Seeing him, Shen Keqin's anger flared. She tried to shake off Jian Mubai's hand, but he held on tightly, and she couldn't break free.
"You bastard, let me go!"
Jian Mubai was sweating all over, feeling uncomfortably hot, but he knew he absolutely couldn't let Shen Keqin leave now, or everything would be ruined.
"You come with me!"
Ignoring Shen Keqin's resistance, Jian Mubai pulled her into an empty private room.
The room was dark, pitch black.
The door was shut forcefully, leaving only the sound of their ragged breaths.
Shen Keqin was still fuming. She hadn't yet noticed Jian Mubai's abnormality and kept hitting him. "Let go of me! I don't want to see you! I..."
Before she could finish speaking, Jian Mubai leaned his head on her shoulder. His hot breath also spilled into her ear. "Han Yunuo drugged the wine you were about to drink. She wanted to ruin you."
Jian Mubai's breathing was heavy, and his voice was deep and husky as he spoke, as if suppressing something.
Shen Keqin's body stiffened. "What did you say? Han Yunuo drugged the wine? Then you..."
Shen Keqin instantly understood. No wonder Jian Mubai had suddenly rushed in to snatch her wine glass and talked about an apology and drinking a whole bottle.
No, that wasn't the point. The point was that he drank all the wine. What about him?
"Let me hold you for a bit, okay?"
Although he asked her, his arms had already pulled her tightly into his embrace.
Shen Keqin's delicate fragrance wafted into his nostrils, and holding her soft body, his breathing grew heavier.
Hearing Jian Mubai's pained groans, Shen Keqin's mind went blank. Before she realized what she was saying, the words had already left her lips.
"Are you okay? Do you need my help?"
