Chapter 175: Dare to Talk Back to Gu Liancheng?_1

"The pressure around Gu Liancheng was somewhat low as he looked at Eleven, asking, "What did you promise me just last night?"

And yet, she’s broken that promise today!

Gu Liancheng didn’t expect to run into Eleven here.

Last night?

Yes, last night she promised him that she wouldn’t drink anymore.

"Well, Gu Dada, actually it’s like this—" Ye Fei stood up, prepared to intervene on Eleven’s behalf.

"Why are you here?" The person who asked this was Eleven. She looked at Gu Liancheng, blinked, completely innocent, and asked him while smiling.

Gu Liancheng was taken aback by Eleven’s smile.

The people present were slightly surprised. Because it was obvious that Fang Eleven seemed unable to hold her liquor and had made a promise to Gu Liancheng, she was now being caught red-handed, but instead of being nervous, she responded with a smile. What did this mean?

Before Gu Liancheng could respond, Eleven turned her head mischievously and said with a laugh, "You’re here with Ms. Nagoya, right? Having dinner? Then you should continue eating, don’t mind me, I’m here dining with my classmates."

"...."

Ms. Nagoya?

What had she seen?

Gu Liancheng’s gaze swept across everyone present at the table.

The crowd waved their hands in unison: "Hey, Mr. Gu, we’re classmates of Eleven’s."

They were trying to make their presence known, hoping that Gu Liancheng’s gaze would linger on them for a moment longer. However, Gu Liancheng didn’t care who each of them was. Right now, in his mind, they were simply classified as: Eleven’s classmates.

In his eyes, what they looked like or what kind of backgrounds they had didn’t matter.

While he was not paying attention, Eleven pulled her hand back and downed the glass of red wine she was holding in one go.

"Ah... oh..." Ye Fei sat down with Eleven, somewhat shocked.

What was up with her today...

It was clear that Gu Liancheng didn’t want her to drink, yet she continued! That took some guts.

"What’s up with you guys?" Eleven acted as if she had no clue and looked at them with a smile, "Didn’t you say that since it’s so expensive, we should at least take a few sips? Why are you all not drinking and just staring at me?"

Crowd: "...."

What else could they be doing?

Had she not seen Gu Liancheng standing behind her, his face turning almost black with anger?

Everyone else swallowed nervously, yet she was still calm.

Eleven poured herself another glass and was about to take a sip when Gu Liancheng grabbed her wrist again, "More drinking?"

"Can’t you just let me slide just once?" Eleven looked at him, "I’m having such a good time with my friends, I promise I won’t get drunk. You can continue your dinner with Ms. Nagoya, we’ll continue our own, and afterwards, we’re going for a spa and sauna. You said that I can spend as much as I want, that hasn’t changed, right? Otherwise, I’ll lose face in front of my friends."

Gu Liancheng frowned.

Was his concern about how much money she spent?

He didn’t care at all about how much money had been spent at this table.

"Ye Fei, you two go home first," Gu Liancheng instructed Ye Fei, he then glanced at the others, "You all can eat and play as much as you want, put it on my tab."

"Oh...." Ye Fei obediently stood up, "Then, Eleven, maybe we should——"

"Why?" Eleven was the one who asked, "I don’t want to leave today, can you please not interfere?"

"No," Gu Liancheng categorically denied her, "You’re going home right now."

"But I want to drink!" Eleven stubbornly looked at Gu Liancheng.

"Hey, hey, Eleven! Are you drunk?" Ye Fei quickly stood up, placing herself between the two of them. Eleven didn’t handle alcohol well, and she had just downed a full glass of red wine. Was she really drunk?

Daring to stand up to Gu Liancheng, she must be seriously intoxicated!
