Chapter 214: 160 Members of the Jiang Family conceal poison in their bellies, will Fifth Master be disposed of after outliving his usefulness? (3 more chapters) Jiang Yanting had been waiting for several days, but she never took the initiative to contact him. However, the old lady did ask a few times why he hadn't asked her out for a meal or something.
But when elders at hpress the matter too much, it can get annoying. Besides, with Tang Wan's surgery date set, the focus of the Jiang family naturally wouldn't be on him.
Jiang Chengsi had been staying around for two days, saying he was going abroad to participate in a racing competition.
He clike the wind and left with a howl, indeed carefree.
But before he left, he did manage to sink Qi Zeyan once.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThat day, several people were drinking, and in the end, it was just Jiang Chengsi and Qi Zeyan left. Jiang Chengsi owned a bar and had developed a strong tolerance for alcohol, and he hardly ever got drunk, but Qi Zeyan, on the other hand, was rare to be in good spirits. Plus, seeing Jiang Jinsang and Tang Wan showing off their affection hit him in the feels, and he ended up drinking quite a bit.
He originally thought about getting a designated driver for Qi Zeyan, but then it occurred to him, didn't he have a female assistant? He took his phone, grabbed his finger, and used the fingerprint lock. The first call on the list was Ruan Mengxi's, because the note clearly said Ruan Mengxi, with "(Assistant)" in the parentheses.
Ruan Mengxi had already taken a bath at this time, having stayed up late the night before, and was planning to rest early today. Receiving a call from Qi Zeyan, she felt like her scalp was about to explode.
This wicked boss! Grinding her teeth, she picked up the phone and said with a soft and gentle laugh, "Hello-Qi President." "Your Qi President is drunk, at...” Jiang Chengsi finished giving the address, “hurry and cpick him up." After he hung up, Ruan Mengxi, baffled, thought being an assistant sometimes hardly differed from a nanny, taking care of not just work but also daily life.
But now it was past ten in the evening, and it would take half an hour to get there from where she lived. She had already changed into her pajamas and had a bath. How was she supposed to go out? And usually, if Qi Zeyan had any issues, he would turn to Assistant Xiaozhu. Hesitating, she gave Assistant Xiaozhu a call.
"Did Qi President call you?" "It wasn't him, it seemed to be his friend." "Then you go." Indeed, whoever the boss calls for should go. There was nothing Ruan Mengxi could do, so she dressed and went out again.
When she got to the club, Jiang Chengsi was casting, playing "League of Legends" on the projector in the private room, surrounded by bottles of alcohol. He indeed seemed to be enjoying his leisure time.
"Arrived? His car keys are on the table, take him and leave." Jiang Chengsi raised his eyebrows.
"Alright." Qi Zeyan indeed drank a lot, but not to the point where he couldn't walk. With the help of the club's staff, getting him to the car and seated wasn't a problem.
Ruan Mengxi had used his car today, and it was no trouble to slowly drive him home. It was night by then, and there weren't many vehicles on the road, so driving wasn't too difficult. Still, she was a bit anxious.
Luckily, Qi Zeyan was relatively settled the whole way home, until they were nearly there, and he woke up. "Qi President, we've arrived." Ruan Mengxi let out a long sigh of relief and helped him open the car door. "Xiaozhu..." Qi Zeyan subconsciously thought Assistant Xiaozhu was the one who brought him home. He reached for the car door, missed it, and instead grabbed her arm.
Although they weren't strangers, being pulled by him still sent shivers down her spine. Ruan Mengxi bit her lip and reached out to help him out.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmQi Zeyan staggered, and to find a stable support, he reached out and wrapped an arm around her shoulder, attempting to pull her into his embrace.
When he woke up the next day, his head was splitting, and even the base O of his neck was numb with pain. He NQ fumbled in bed for a while before getting up, only then realizing his neck had been twisted. "What's up with my neck?" He touched his neck and felt a stabbing pain.
"Not sure, your neck was already like that when that young lady brought you back." The old master explained. "Young lady?" Qi Zeyan frowned.
"Your assistant." Since she's Assistant Xiaozhu's assistant and also handles affairs for him, calling her his assistant wasn't exactly wrong.
When Qi Zeyan went to the office to ask about it, Ruan Mengxi faced him head-on.
"Last night, your friend calledto take you home. You must have slept in an awkward position in the car, twisting your neck." Qi Zeyan nodded and let her leave...
Later, when he visited Mr. Tang in the hospital, because he kept rubbing his neck, ca aleck it ought Zhou Zhongqing's attention. After checking it, the conclusion was: "Who hit you?" Qi Zeyan was bewildered; his assistant had hit him?
But the place where he was hit wasn't captured by surveillance, and he had no evidence. However, deep down, he was convinced that this assistant wasn't as eager to please as she appeared on the surface. She was probably a false friend.
