173 Drugged
When they arrived at the cocktail party, Zhong Xin parked the car and hurriedly got out to open the door for Lian Jing.
Shen Luo opened the car door and got out. She was filled with desire when she saw Lian Jing’s lofty aura. She blushed and walked over to hold his arm, but Zhong Xin inserted himself between the two of them and blocked her path.
Zhong Xin bowed his head and seemed to unintentionally stop Shen Luo. He said, “President Lian, I’ll wait for you in the car.”
Lian Jing nodded and walked towards the banquet hall.
!!
Shen Luo glared at Zhong Xin and hurriedly ran after Lian Jing in her ten-centimeter high heels.
This secretary was really tactless. When she took over, she would definitely get Lian Jing to fire him to vent her anger!
Zhong Xin hid the sneer in his eyes and returned to the car to send a message to President Tian’s secretary. “She’s here.”
The other party simply replied, “Got it.” When he looked up again, he saw that Lian Jing had brought a beautiful woman.
The secretary quickly nudged President Tian, who was talking to someone beside him, and reminded him in a low voice, “President Lian is here to see you. He brought a gift.”
President Tian hurriedly raised his head to take a look and was overwhelmed by what he saw. His eyes were practically glued to Shen Luo’s body. As he spoke, his jowls trembled and his paunch rose and fell.
Of course, Shen Luo understood what his hungry gaze meant. She had once accompanied such rich men for a price. However, things were different now. She was Lian Jing’s female companion. How could she let this fat pig size her up so openly?
She subconsciously hid behind Lian Jing and lowered her voice. “President Lian, I’m a little scared.”
Lian Jing glanced behind him and smiled. “President Tian, you’re scaring her.”
Shen Luo had not expected him to really defend her in public. She hurriedly raised her head and stared affectionately at his cold side profile. Her heart overflowed with delight and she almost drowned in the sweetness of the moment.
President Tian immediately raised his glass and apologized to Shen Luo with a smile. “Miss, I was rude. How should I address you?”
Shen Luo wanted to give this person a hard time, but when she saw the curious glances coming from all directions, Shen Luo immediately realized that this was an excellent opportunity. She could seize this opportunity to let others know that she was Lian Jing’s favorite woman.
She puffed out her chest and smiled proudly. “President Tian, just call me Shen Luo.”
“So it’s Miss Shen.” President Tian stared at her chest lustfully and pushed the wine glass he was holding into her hand. “It’s our first meeting. Miss Shen, would you like to have a drink?”
Shen Luo looked at Lian Jing pleadingly. Seeing that he had no intention of drinking on her behalf, she was forced to swallow her disgust and say with a fake smile, “Sure, it’s just a glass of wine.”
She took the glass and downed it with alacrity.
President Tian liked her even more. He could not bear to move his eyes away from her fair neck that had been exposed when she was drinking. He quickly gestured for the waiter to fill Shen Luo’s glass with wine and smiled. “Miss Shen, you have a good tolerance for alcohol. Looks like we will definitely have a good time tonight.”
Lian Jing acted as if he had not seen what was going on. He just stood there coldly.
President Tian was very satisfied with Shen Luo, whom Lian Jing had brought. He gratefully led him to the seat of honor.
After Shen Luo sat down beside Lian Jing, she thought that President Tian would finally shift his gaze away from her. But he grew even worse and kept finding all sorts of reasons to force her to drink. However, Lian Jing acted as if he did not see it, and sat calmly there. He did not even look at her.
Shen Luo was already a little blurry from the alcohol. She saw that she would lose the opportunity if she did not act now, so she dug her nails into her palm. The pain temporarily cleared her wits.
She gritted her teeth and excused herself to go to the washroom. She went to the cubicle and took out the medicine from her bosom, dipping her fingertips into it.
The seller had told her that this drug was extremely potent. It did not take much to knock out a man.
She walked out of the washroom in anticipation and sat beside Lian Jing with a smile. She raised her wine glass and flicked her finger on the rim of the glass before handing it to Lian Jing. “President Lian, thank you for widening my horizons. This glass is for you.”
President Tian was about to urge her to have another glass. Now he retracted his hand in a daze and waited for Lian Jing’s reaction.
To his surprise, Lian Jing suddenly smiled. He took the wine glass and slowly put it to his lips.
Shen Luo’s eyes were wide, and her heart started to beat wildly in anticipation. Just as his lips were about to touch the glass, and he was about to drink the wine that she had spiked, Lian Jing stretched out his long arm and pulled Shen Luo, who was staring at him in a daze, to his side.
Before Shen Luo could react, Lian Jing grabbed her chin and forced the wine down her throat.
She bent over and choked. She wanted to spit out the wine, but Lian Jing did not give her any opportunity to do so. He pushed her into President Tian’s arms.
Shen Luo looked up. She could only see the man’s thin lips opening and closing coldly. “Do as you wish.”
