Chapter 22: Chapter 22 Bo Yunshen, haven’t you had enough?!

Everyone knew the relationship between Tang Tian and Qin Yan. At Bo Group, there was no shortage of people discussing her relationship with Bo Yunshen. Everyone knew the words Qin Yan said at Luo Shen Bay were nothing but a cavalier excuse to salvage the reputation of Luo Shen Bay!

The drama between a mistress and a wife never seemed to be in short supply in this world!

Lin Han had poured Qin Yan a glass of vodka, almost overflowing and chosen for its high alcohol content. Qin Yan didn’t handle alcohol well and was bound to get drunk!

But that wasn’t the most important thing. The most important thing was that Qin Yan knew if Bo Yunshen chose Tang Tian, the mistress, over her, she would never be able to hold her head up again.

In front of Tang Tian, at Bo Group, at the Bo Family!

Qin Yan’s ears were ringing and her soul was shivering. She didn’t even dare to look at Bo Yunshen’s face, knowing she wouldn’t win. Still, Qin Yan lifted her head and looked in Bo Yunshen’s direction.

He was lazily leaning on the sofa in the private room, with colorful lights sculpting his face into a defiant and handsome indifference.

When their eyes met, Bo Yunshen’s eyebrows twitched. From her gaze, he could clearly see a kind of vulnerability that had never been in Qin Yan’s eyes before.

Qin Yan showing weakness?

That was quite the curiosity!

Was she also begging him? Did she even deserve to beg him?

Bo Yunshen thought he hated Qin Yan’s overpowering, strong-willed facade the most, but now, after directly experiencing Qin Yan’s pretense, the rage in his heart might as well have split his heart in two.

His fingers rhythmically tapped on the table twice. Tang Tian’s soft body leaned over, tightly clinging to Bo Yunshen’s arm, "Yunshen, if you don’t speak... do you agree or not?"

"That won’t do!"

Bo Yunshen had just uttered three words when Tang Tian pouted. Before Qin Yan could even catch her breath, the man let out a light sigh and said, "This glass of alcohol, Director Qin naturally has to drink. Likewise, as the major contributor of Luo Shen Bay, how could Director Qin not have a drink with everyone at this celebration? Therefore, Director Qin will start with two glasses to warm things up."

At that moment, Qin Yan felt an icy chill as if she were floating in the deep sea in the middle of winter, reaching the marrow of her bones and chilling her soul.

She had fought hard for three years to make a name for herself in the marketing department, earning some praise, only to face two critical strikes by Bo Yunshen in less than a month.

No matter how outstanding her business performance was, everyone present today thought first of him, Bo Yunshen, her husband, who didn’t love her, disliked her, and even preferred a minor celebrity over her!

"Bo Yunshen! Don’t go too far!"

Lu Yi suddenly stood up, his face stripped of its usual gentleness. Qin Yan didn’t even know how she reached out to grab him.

"I’ll drink!" Qin Yan’s voice carried a barely perceptible tremor.

Clashing head-on with Bo Yunshen was of no benefit to Lu Yi; she couldn’t win, Lu Yi couldn’t either.

Qin Yan was just a bit unwilling. She had endured the old pain deep in her bones for three years, but facing Bo Yunshen, she still had no means, no power to retaliate!

Just like three years ago, that time Bo Yunshen locked her in the bedroom...

Holding back her tears, Qin Yan smiled thinnly at Lin Han, "Mr. Lin, here, this glass is for you! I shouldn’t have been so impulsive with you. You are a generous person, please forgive me this once!"

Lin Han sneered coldly and nodded ambiguously.

Qin Yan tilted her head back and chugged the wine from the glass, which was half a palm tall. The liquor seeped down her throat, its spiciness making Qin Yan close her eyes momentarily.

Her throat burned intensely, and Qin Yan’s pupils dilated briefly before quickly refocusing.

She gripped the wine bottle that Lin Han had just poured for her, filled it up again, and raised her glass toward everyone in the private room. Her lips, along with her eyes, took on a strange allure due to the alcohol she had consumed.

"Come, the Luo Shen Bay project was sold out on the day of its launch, thanks to everyone’s efforts. Since I joined the Bo Group, I’ve been under your care, and that has made me who I am today, Qin Yan. Here’s a toast to you all!"

She raised her glass, and if not for the ripples occasionally spreading through the pearly white liquid in the glass, the ashen scars at the bottom of Qin Yan’s eyes wouldn’t have been so thoroughly visible.

What should have been a festive evening turned tense in an instant when Qin Yan tilted her head back and poured a second glass of vodka into her mouth.

After two glasses, Qin Yan drank neatly. Lu Yi couldn’t even intervene in time. After finishing her drink, she squeezed the glass and slammed it onto the table, producing a crisp sound!

Qin Yan’s gaze was fixed on Bo Yunshen. She asked in a low voice, "Mr. Bo, are you satisfied now?"

Bo Yunshen’s tongue pressed against his thin lips; his eyes were as dark as if he had committed some unforgivable sin. The atmosphere grew oppressively heavy.

The man’s brows knitted together like a thin blade, his scrutinizing gaze sweeping over Qin Yan’s face before settling darkly and broodingly on the vodka bottle on the table.

This woman claimed she couldn’t drink much, but in reality, she handled her liquor quite well. The alcohol content of vodka was renowned worldwide, and yet she remained composed after downing half a bottle!

Bo Yunshen sneered. Not a single word this woman said was true!

Suppressing his anger, he gave Qin Yan a mocking look, clearly not satisfied, without uttering a word.

Lu Yi snatched the bottle from Qin Yan and said, "Bo Yunshen, haven’t you caused enough trouble?"

Trouble?

Bo Yunshen’s expression grew even darker, thick like a mass of ink. It was the first time anyone had used that word on him!

"Mr. Lu, I don’t recall your family living by the sea. Why bother meddling so much? These matters between Mr. Bo and his wife and a bit of drinking are just marital pleasures. Do you also need to intervene?"

Lin Han chuckled, picked up a bottle of liquor from the table, opened it, and poured more into Qin Yan’s glass. "Director Qin has an immense capacity; claiming she couldn’t drink was just too humble. Tonight, none of us shall return sober! I’ll fill your glass!"

Lu Yi immediately reached out, grabbed the glass from Qin Yan’s hand, and drank it himself.

His face was devoid of expression as his gaze fixed directly on Lin Han. "Mr. Lin, it’s your turn!"

Taking the half-filled vodka bottle, he poured it into Lin Han’s glass and said, "Isn’t it said that we shouldn’t return sober? Why aren’t you drinking, Mr. Lin?"

As Lu Yi was somewhat related to Bo Yunshen, Lin Han dared not offend him and could only gulp down the strong liquor.

The vodka was potent, and though Qin Yan had gulped it down easily, Lin Han couldn’t help but grit his teeth after just one gulp.

This Lu Yi was really troublesome!
