Chapter 138: Chapter 138: Gathering (3)
Ye Xinluo sat in her seat, her eyes slightly closed.
She rarely drank alcohol, and after just one glass, she felt incredibly hot all over. Her cheeks were a flushed red, and she was very uncomfortable.
"Xinluo, are you okay?" Lan Shan looked at the redness on her face, feeling somewhat disdainful.
How could just one glass of alcohol make her like this? So weak.
Ye Xinluo opened her eyes, which only made her feel dizzy and lightheaded.
Without thinking much, she just assumed it was the alcohol getting to her head, and said, "I’m fine. You go ahead and eat; I’ll just wash my face and be back."
With that, she was about to get up and leave when Lan Shan quickly stopped her, "Do you want me to go with you?"
Seeing her like this, there really was some worry that something might happen. But this girl truly couldn’t handle her alcohol, could she? Would one glass really knock her out?
"No need, I’ll be back soon." Having said that, she pulled her hand back and wobbled out of the private room.
Lan Shan watched her and couldn’t help shaking her head. She was supposed to take her home, yet she ended up getting drunk first.
The atmosphere in the private room didn’t change because of Ye Xinluo’s departure.
Those who were eating continued eating, and those who were chatting kept chatting.
"Lan Shan, how do you know Ye Xinluo?" Qiao Na asked, looking at Lan Shan.
Lan Shan furrowed her brow, not in the mood to deal with her, so she simply didn’t answer.
Seeing no response, Qiao Na didn’t give up and continued, saying, "I’m warning you, stay away from her."
"What do you mean?" Lan Shan asked.
Qiao Na chuckled, and because of the alcohol, she spoke without thought.
"Nothing really, just saying it casually."
Lan Shan frowned slightly, having the feeling there was more meaning behind her words.
"Nana, just say less." Yu Tian also chimed in.
"Say less what? She’s done things but doesn’t let people talk about it." As she spoke, she looked intentionally or unintentionally in Lan Shan’s direction.
Feeling uncomfortable being looked at this way, she ignored the gaze, picked up the drink from the table, and downed it in one shot.
With a bang.
She slammed the glass down on the table fiercely. Her sudden action startled everyone around, especially Qiao Na.
Startled, she glared at Lan Shan with some dissatisfaction, "What the hell is wrong with you?"
Lan Shan smiled without a word, unwilling to engage with her. She picked up the bottle and poured herself another drink.
Seeing her ignore her, Qiao Na’s anger spiked, and she kicked the chair behind her, staggering over to Lan Shan, looking down at her and saying, "Do you really think you’re some kind of rich heiress? What’s with the tantrum?"
"I only said a couple of things about Ye Xinluo, is that necessary? But I suggest you keep your distance from her, or you might just end up counting money for her after she sells you out." She sneered coldly, causing Lan Shan to furrow her brow tighter.
Turning her head, she looked at Qiao Na coldly and said, "What do you mean?"
Qiao Na, having drunk a bit too much today, felt bolder because of the alcohol. She sneered, "That’s exactly what I mean. Are you pretending not to understand?"
The surrounding people murmured with interest, though none of them knew Lan Shan’s identity. But seeing the cars she usually drove, it was obvious her family was wealthy.
So in the company, everyone avoided her whenever possible.
No one would be stupid enough to provoke her.
When Ye Xinluo first joined the company as the CEO’s assistant, many people were displeased with her, but because of Lan Shan, no one dared to say anything.
