Chapter 192 Drunken State
Zhao Yuefei nodded, "Be careful."
"I will," Qin Jiang promised, "I'm already prepared to take this guy's life!"
Despite Qin Jiang's confident tone, Zhao Yuefei could only give a bitter smile. She was still somewhat worried, after all, Chu Tianjiao was a famous martial arts genius from Jinling!
Could Qin Jiang really be his match?
Her hatred for Chu Tianjiao was no less than anyone else's, and if it weren't for her limited strength, she would have chosen to personally take his life. Now, with Qin Jiang's imminent battle against Chu Tianjiao, she couldn't offer any help, which made her feel powerless!
After three rounds of drinks, Zhao Yuefei's pretty face was flushed with two patches of red.
"Mrs. Zhao, can't handle your liquor?" Qin Jiang teased.
"I haven't relaxed like this in a long time. Since I have the chance, I naturally have to get a bit tipsy to do justice to myself," Zhao Yuefei said with a smile that held a deeper meaning.
Qin Jiang simply smiled noncommittally, "Then drink to your heart's content!"
Half an hour later, Qin Jiang was helping a staggering Zhao Yuefei out.
He was speechless.
Who would have thought that this icy CEO had such a low tolerance for alcohol?
They had hardly started drinking, and she was already this drunk; Qin Jiang was at a loss for words.
"Don't stop me, I can still drink..." Zhao Yuefei's delicate hand rested on Qin Jiang's shoulder, her breath was as fragrant as orchids, full of seductive charm, a stark contrast to her usual self.
"You really are clumsy and playful," Qin Jiang said without another word, picking her up in his arms and driving her back to her place. At the villa's entrance, he struggled to fish out the keys from her clothing.
Zhao Yuefei's villa was vast, but it was eerily empty, without a soul in sight.
"It's so hot, turn on the air conditioner quickly..." As soon as they entered the room, Zhao Yuefei instinctively kicked off her high heels and started peeling off her clothes one by one...
Qin Jiang was speechless. This woman must truly be drunk, acting as if he wasn't even there?
The sight before him was rather provocative, and Qin Jiang shook his head inwardly, placing her on the bed and covering her tightly with a blanket.
"Don't go..." Just as he was about to leave, Zhao Yuefei suddenly grabbed his hand, her eyes pleading, "Just stay with me like this."
Seeing her this drunk, Qin Jiang was also at a loss and could only sit down beside her.
His heart couldn't help but fill with pity.
No matter how strong she pretended to be on the outside, in the end, she was just an ordinary woman, a child who had lost her parents.
Perhaps, only when she shed her facade could he see the softest part of her heart.
Zhao Yuefei gradually fell quiet and deep into sleep.
And Qin Jiang spent the night on the chair.
The next day, as sunlight streamed in, Qin Jiang slowly opened his eyes and glanced at the beauty on the bed.
"What a sleeping pose," Qin Jiang shook his head; who would have thought that the formidable icy CEO would hug a little pink pig in her sleep and even drool a little?
Zhao Yuefei, with her robes half-undone and her jade body lying askew, if any other man saw her like this, they would have probably pounced on her by now. But all Qin Jiang felt was heartache.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Perhaps, this was the real her when she was unconscious.
He replaced the blanket that Zhao Yuefei had kicked off, then left the bedroom and went into the living room. After a tour around the kitchen, he found the refrigerator almost empty of food.
Half an hour later.
A set of footsteps followed behind Qin Jiang.
Dressed in a robe, Zhao Yuefei stepped out barefooted elegantly, with her slightly messy hair loosely draped over her shoulders, exuding a different kind of charm.
Her face held a hint of shyness.
She'd never brought a man home before, nor had she ever allowed another man to see her sleeping posture.

She knew how ridiculous she looked when she slept.
How embarrassing! She was supposed to be the icy CEO, and now her image had completely collapsed in front of this man!
"Awake?" Qin Jiang turned and served up a steaming bowl of egg noodles.
"I just don't understand, you live in such a big, luxurious villa all by yourself, how come you don't have a single servant?"
Zhao Yuefei's cheeks reddened, "I'm used to being alone; I don't feel comfortable with someone else around."
"Then why don't you have any cooking supplies?"
"I don't know how to cook, so why would I need those things?" Zhao Yuefei retorted confidently.
"Fine, you're incredible!" Qin Jiang had no comeback and could only say lightly, "Make do with this, you drank so much last night, you should have some soup noodles to nourish your stomach."
Looking at the bowl of hot noodles in front of her, a warmth suddenly spread through Zhao Yuefei's heart.
Before the Zhao Family rose to prominence, her mother used to make her a bowl of noodles every day before school, and she would always complain that breakfast was too simple.
Then, the Zhao Couple established the Zhao Corporation.
They became busier and busier.
Her living conditions improved by leaps and bounds.
But she could no longer taste the hot noodles cooked by her mother.
Long-lost memories surged, making her eyes slightly moist.
"Thanks!"
She spoke softly, picking up her chopsticks.
Qin Jiang broke the silence, "I have other things to take care of, so I'll leave first."
Zhao Yuefei looked up and reminded him again, "The grand opening of the enterprise city is in five days. In these five days, try to prepare as much as you can, so you're not caught off guard at the last minute!"
Qin Jiang nodded slightly.
