184 Don’t Get In My Way

Wang Ke’er’s eyes flashed with disgust, but it quickly disappeared. She said, “How can I run?”

Wang Ke’er put her hands together and made a pleading gesture. Wang Ke’er held the phone and said, “I met a really handsome guy and I’m asking for his contact information. Don’t get in my way.”

“Is that so?” asked the person on the other end of the phone. “If that’s true, then bring him back for everyone to meet.”

“Alright,” Wang Ke’er said. “I’ll be back in a while.”

Wang Ke’er looked at Zhao Qiang and said, “Zhao Qiang, do me a favor. I really don’t want to hang out with them. My dad arranged for me to come here today. He wants me to get to know people in the industry. You can come with me and help me get out of this.”

Zhao Qiang was someone who could be persuaded by reason but not cowed by force, so he could only nod when Wang Ke’er said this.

Wang Ke’er walked up beside him and held his arm. Before Zhao Qiang could shake her off, Wang Ke’er said, “Act seriously.”

Zhao Qiang let her stay on his arm and followed Wang Ke’er to a private room. Wang Ke’er opened the door, and immediately revealed the atmosphere filled with corrupt lavishness.. At a glance, Zhao Qiang could tell that these rich young ladies were only looking for handsome boys to accompany them.

When Ni Yan heard Wang Ke’er come in, she looked up with anticipation. She held a cigarette in her hand, took a puff, and blew it on the face of the handsome boy near her. She smiled happily when the boy coughed.

Then, Ni Yan looked at the door and saw that Wang Ke’er had really returned with a man. She stood up in surprise.

Ni Yan ogled Zhao Qiang without restraint. After taking another puff, she said, “Not bad, you didn’t fool us with just any Tom, Dick, and Harry.”

Wang Ke’er did not want to be here for even a minute. She picked up the glass on the table, filled it with wine, and drank it. Zhao Qiang frowned. He wanted to take it, but Wang Ke’er evaded his hand.

After finishing the wine in her glass, Wang Ke’er slammed the glass on the table, making a crisp sound. Everyone in the room looked at her.

Wang Ke’er poured another glass and finished that as well. Then, she said, “Everyone, I’ll take my leave first. Don’t stop at my expense.”

The crowd jeered and revealed and gave her knowing smiles. Wang Ke’er held Zhao Qiang’s arm and walked out.

After they left the room, Wang Ke’er could not hold on any longer and fell on Zhao Qiang. She leaned her head on his shoulder. The strong smell of alcohol and the pleasant smell of her hair came to Zhao Qiang’s nose.

Zhao Qiang wanted to push Wang Ke’er’s head away, but when he touched her soft hair, he could not bear to. Wang Ke’er seemed to be holding on to her consciousness, and she said, “Send me back.”

Zhao Qiang was stunned. He had no choice but to bring Wang Ke’er back to Yao Zizhou’s private room.

Yao Zizhou looked at Zhao Qiang in confusion when he saw him bring Wang Ke’er back. Zhao Qiang felt a little helpless. The matter was actually very simple, but explaining it would become complicated.

“Whoa,” Cheng Sanjin said. “What’s going on? Did she drink too much?”

“Why did you bring her back?” Shao Mo asked.

Zhao Qiang decided to give a simple explanation. He said, “Ms. Wang had a bit too much to drink and happened to bump into me, so she asked me to send her back.”

Yao Zizhou looked at Shao Mo and said, “Go ask the office for Wang Ke’er’s address.”

Shao Mo soon got an address. Yao Zizhou looked at Zhao Qiang and said, “You and the chauffeur can send Ms. Wang back. Come back to pick me up later.”

Zhao Qiang pondered for a moment. After all, she was a girl, and her consciousness was muddled from drinking so much. Zhao Qiang said, “If I go back with her, isn’t that a bad idea?”

“Wasn’t she the one who asked you to send her?” Yao Zizhou said.

Zhao Qiang had nothing to say in response. He was also the only one responsible for bringing Yao Zizhou back.

After Zhao Qiang helped Wang Ke’er leave the club, Cheng Sanjin said, “What’s going on?”

Yao Zizhou picked up the glass of wine and took a sip. He then said, “I’ll consider the favor from before repaid this time.”

“Yao Zizhou, the Wang family isn’t that easy to mess with,” Shao Mo said from the side.

“Don’t worry, I have faith in Zhao Qiang.” Then, Yao Zizhou glanced at his phone and put it down in disappointment.

It had been so long, but his wife still had not sent him a message to go home.

“No way,” Shao Mo said. “It’s only been a while, and you’re already looking at the time?”

“It just so happens that there’s something I need to talk to you about,” Yao Zizhou said.

Cheng Sanjin nodded and let Yao Zizhou continue.

“I had a real estate project running, but it was forced to stop. The problem is that the local traffic is very poor.

“I’ve contacted the local villages and I want to apply for support from the local cultures. Then, I’ll apply for the construction of an airport.”
