Chapter 326: No More Drinking

know about their relationship.But Lu Kuò is different. Even without Zhuó Yǔ'ān, she and Lu Kuò were high school classmates and even class president. This was her own resource.Her words left Zhuo Yu'an...Zhou Ming only then belatedly glanced at Lawyer Sun and his wife beside her, taking the initiative to introduce himself. Lawyer Sun also hurriedly introduced himself, and the two even exchanged business cards.

Zhou Ming, a very outgoing person, glanced at Director Xiao and then at Lawyer Sun, and said with a smile:

Tinglan, both your old and new masters are here today. Shouldn't you treat them to a meal It's better to strike while the iron is hot, how about today

Zhou Ming was a bit deliberate. Last time, he and Director Xiao invited Tinglan for dinner, but then Mr. Zhuo and Lu Kuò showed up, disrupting things like they were crashing the party. So just now when he saw them waiting for the elevator together, he probably assumed they were going to eat together, so he intentionally wanted to join in.

Since he had said so, Shu Tinglan naturally couldn't refuse. Lawyer Sun and Director Xiao, both of them were the ones who introduced her to this field, she was grateful to them both.

Zhuo Y uan glanced at Zhou Ming, meaningfully. Zhou Ming's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the group led by Ting Lan wasn't going to have dinner with Zhuo Yu an after all

So, he accidentally bumped into Zhuo Yuyan

Damn it, he cursed inwardly.

This meal, Zhou Ming ate exceptionally unhappily, especially seeing Zhuo Yu'an across from Ting Lan, calmly and composedly, he felt like a fool. He simply stopped looking at him, focusing instead on chatting with Lawyer Sun and Lawyer Zhang.

Although the lawyers present specialized in different areas, they were all well-known figures in their field. As they chatted, they discovered they had many mutual acquaintances, and the conversation became increasingly lively. All the lawyers at the table were senior colleagues of Shu Tinglan's, so she listened attentively without offering too many opinions.

While Zhuo Yu'an on the opposite side seemed completely uninterested in the topic, occasionally glancing at Shu Tinglan without shying away from meeting her gaze.

Shu Tinglan felt the gaze across from her was burning, like it could set her ablaze. She ignored him, lifting the wine glass beside her and taking a small sip.

Soon after, the phone on her desk started ringing with a WeChat message. She glanced at it, and to her surprise, it was from Zhuo Yu'an across the way. Three simple words: "Don't drink!"

What does it have to do with you She lifted her glass to take another sip, but a picture suddenly flashed in her mind. The dream from the last time she got drunk became vivid. Her face flushed instantly, and she glanced at Zhuo Yu'an across from her, only to see him still looking down at his phone. Perhaps sensing her gaze, he suddenly looked up, gave her a half-smile, half-serious look, and then warned her with his eyes not to drink, it was so annoying, Shu Tinglan thought to herself.

Because of that dream that was both real and fake, Shu Tinglan didn't dare to drink anymore. What if he had another dream, it would be unbearable to face anyone.

After dinner, Director Xiao and Zhou Ming said goodbye to them. Since Zhuo Yunan also lived in that hotel, everyone took his car back to the hotel.

Lawyer Sun, his wife, and granddaughter Sun Yueyue all took their seats in the back. Shu Tinglan had to sit in the passenger seat. The car was quiet for a while. Lawyer Sun and his wife wanted to chat with Zhuo YUAN, but seeing that he seemed reluctant to talk while driving, they simply said thank you and remained silent.

Luckily, the hotel wasn't far and we arrived soon after. As we rode the elevator together, Zhuo Y uan was closest to the buttons, so he asked >>>

"Mr. Sun, which floor are you on"

"Ten floors, thank you," replied Lawyer Sun.

Then Zhuo Yu'an looked at Shu Tinglan again, without speaking, just using his eyes to ask her how many floors.

Shutinglan rolled her eyes internally. She knew he was just pretending, but with Lawyer Sun and his family present, she had to answer.

“The 26th floor.” He was on the same floor as her.

"Good," he answered with a low voice, and pressed the button for floor 26.

"Gee, Sister Shu and Mr. Zhu live on the same floor." Sun Yueyue thought it was quite a coincidence.

Hearing his words, the four adults in the elevator, who all had their own thoughts, became even more guarded. When they reached the 10th floor, the door opened and the mistress immediately pulled Sun Yu out. The two young people in the elevator, the atmosphere... she felt it was inappropriate for children.

It's not that Shi Mu is overthinking things. As a middle-aged woman, she's very sensitive to these situations. Just at the dinner table, the way Zhuo looked at Tinglan was off. It wasn't subtle; his gaze was aggressive, as if he wanted to devour Tinglan whole.

Yes, the mistress's feeling is right. Zhuo YUAN doesn't want to be as gentlemanly as before, nor does he want to take things step by step like before. Because if he's not harsh enough to Tinglan, she will feel justified escaping far away, even planning to find a stepfather for his children. This is truly unbearable.

As soon as Sun's family stepped out of the elevator, Zhuo Y uan turned around and cornered Shu Tinglan in the elevator. The hotel elevator was surrounded by grayish-brown mirrors on all sides. They weren't very clear, but they could vaguely reflect people's appearances. The more indistinct the outline, the more ambiguous the atmosphere became.

Shutinglan was backed into a corner by him, staring at him with warning in her eyes.

“What do you want to do”

Compared to her nervousness, Zhuo Yuyan was rather relaxed, he chuckled.

“Tinglan, it's my turn to ask what you want. After using me, pretend nothing happened That's not appropriate, is it”

His words were like a bolt from the blue, shattering Shu Tinglan into pieces. He stood there stiffly, staring at him, unable to utter a word.

But, wouldn't you know it, that bastard Zhu Yu'an kept going.

"If I hadn't stopped you from drinking just now, were you going to take advantage of being drunk to do something illegal to me"

Shutinglan's face turned pale, and she suddenly remembered the dream. It was her clinging to him, pestering him for a hug and a kiss. So it wasn't a dream It actually wasn't a dream

Her eyes immediately reddened, a mixture of shame and pain flooding her. A whirlwind of emotions choked the breath from her lungs. The elevator doors were opening, she shoved him away, stumbling out into the hallway. Just as she reached the doorway, Zhuo Yu'an pulled her back into his embrace, pinning her against the wall beside the elevator. He said...

"Tinglan, being loyal to your own body is not shameful."

He is now dominant, giving her no chance to escape.

Before I didn't know about the children, I thought that as long as I pursued her slowly, I could get back together. I didn't want to pressure her. But after finding out about the children, he had to speed up because his confidence was completely shattered. He was the biological father of the children, and she would rather find a stepfather for them than come back to him. That meant she completely gave up on him. How could he have the confidence to slowly pursue her back

Her phone in her pocket was buzzing incessantly. At this time, it was almost always Yi Muyang calling. He sometimes sent video requests and sometimes voice call requests, whether it was video or voice entirely up to his self-perceived image of himself!

I'm glad that today Yimu Yang felt he wasn't handsome enough, so he sent a voice call request.

Seeing his voice call, Shu Tinglan instantly felt a little wronged.

Zhuo Yu'an frowned as he watched her answer the voice call, watching her expression gradually soften. A surge of anger welled up inside him.blessings that come with it. Now, her only wish in life is for A-Ting to find a good home. 。If she had to say if there was anyone she approved of, it would naturally be the girl who used to live in th...
