Chapter 0035 – Drunkenness (1 / 2)

When Su Wanqing replied, her fingertips tapped the screen, revealing a hint of helplessness and witticism between the lines, “Look carefully oh, it’s dinner!”

She seemed to snicker inwardly, having seen this little joke coming for a long time.

Zhou Yaoshi answered, a hint of playfulness and curiosity mixed in her voice, “I know it’s dinner! But you two ……”

In a turn of events, she sent a “cheer for love” emoji, which is full of flirtation and blessing, so that people can not help but look at the corners of the mouth up.

When Su Wanqing saw this, she couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow and asked rhetorically, “What are you babbling about?”

The tone was chastising, but more of an acceptance of his best friend’s snark.

Zhou Yaoshi seemed to have a plan, replying easily and confidently, “Don’t pretend, I already know.”

These few words were like a direct poke at the mystery in Su Wanqing’s heart, causing her to involuntarily begin to retrace all the details of today.

Got it?

These three words swirled around in Su Wanqing’s mind, and she immediately recalled Qi Zhiyu’s offhand remark in the office in the morning.

At that moment, the sunlight happened to be pouring through the blinds on him, making the understatement seem to be gilded with a mysterious halo.

Could it have been accidentally leaked by one of the employees in a casual conversation in the pantry?

No, Xia Yangjing, as a secretary, has always been rigorous in her dealings, dripping with water.

And no one else in the company would be stupid enough to sacrifice a hard-fought raise for a few lines of small talk.

Just as she was quickly combing through her mind, trying to find a possible loophole, Zhou Yaoshi’s message once again interrupted her thoughts.

This time, it’s a video.

Clicking play, the image hit her like a hammer, instantly striking her heart.

Surveillance video!

Those corners that were thought to be hidden are now invisible on the screen.

She had thought herself well thought out, but she had missed the mark on this one.

The office’s monitoring privileges were strictly limited to her, Zhou Yaoshi, and Xia Yangjing.

Although she had expressly forbidden the private dissemination of any information, she had neglected to ask Xia Yangjing to handle the security of the surveillance video.

At this moment, she couldn’t help but secretly regret her negligence.

Immediately after, Zhou Yaoshi’s message came again, with a sense of arrogance and indignation between the lines, “When you come back from Jiang City, I’ll treat you to this meal again. However, you have to be ready to confess everything to me!”

The angry and slightly pouty expression that followed behind was both amusing and slightly heartbreaking to watch.

Su Wanqing pondered for a moment and replied, “This matter, don’t tell anyone else.”

The words reveal trust in a close friend, as well as concern about the potential for future turmoil.

Zhou Yaoshi’s reply seemed mature and understanding, “I have a sense of proportion. It’s just that my heart is a little unbalanced …… Who knows how much I wish I could have eaten you and Li Yanzhou’s wedding candy!”

This line speaks to the complexity of being a friend, both in terms of deep blessings for the relationship, but also not without a little bit of loss mixed in.

“I’m going to go to a nightclub tonight and find hot models to soothe my broken heart.”

These words carried a bit of determination to heal herself, and also made Su Wanqing’s heart tighten.

She looked at the screen and took a deep breath, eventually leaving only a long sigh before putting away her cell phone and getting up to walk to the bathroom, hitting the flush button as if to wash away the complex series of emotions.

However, when she walked out of the restroom, Shio was no longer there.

She washed her hands briefly and was just about to step out of the doorway when a sudden shadow fell over her entire body, as if by a sense of foreboding.

“What’s taking so long in there?”
