Zheng Xiyao knew very well that Brand Arthur was taking revenge on her.
It was all my fault back then.
When she first started chasing Hawke, his best friend was Brand Arthur, and she had never been able to stand the street gangster like him who was so unstinting. In order to help the male protagonist grow up as quickly as possible and get on the right track, she has always regarded him as an obstacle to her goals, so she will deal with him whenever she has the opportunity.
She remembered that once, she spent a lot of money to buy the male protagonist's time. At that time, Arthur seemed to have something urgent to find the male protagonist. Everyone around knew that she didn't want to see Arthur, so they teamed up to tease him and had to force him to drink the wine on the table before they could take him away.
She proudly pointed to the neatly arranged wine bottles and said to him: "Drink all the wine on the table, and I will let you take him away."
She didn't know that Arthur was injured at that time, but she saw that he grabbed the wine bottle on the table and poured it into his mouth without hesitation. After drinking bottle after bottle, when her body began to shake, Hawke snatched it away with suppressed anger, and then stared at her coldly. At that time, for the sake of the male protagonist's face, I did not pursue the matter forcefully.
Back then, Zheng Xiyao's willfulness made them all suffer, but now it was his turn.
"Drink." Arthur opened five bottles of wine at once and raised his chin slightly, "Celebrate meeting our old friends again."
The corners of Zheng Xiyao's mouth raised slightly, and she stretched out her hand to hold the body of the wine bottle without fear, put the mouth of the bottle directly to her lips, raised her head and poured it down her throat. Because he drank too quickly, the wine overflowed from his mouth and flowed down his jaw and neck to his collarbone. Zheng Xiyao put down the empty wine bottle, brushed the back of her hand across her chin, and turned her head to meet Hawke's uncertain gaze.
In fact, she has a good drinking capacity, which is completely contrary to her appearance. She is almost never drunk.
Because the Zheng family itself relied on wine-making technology to make their fortune, everyone in the Zheng family knows how to drink.
However, it seems that most people have forgotten this and only remember the Zheng family who dominated the political arena.
Even Hawke didn't know she was a good drinker. She even pretended to be drunk several times in order to seduce the male protagonist. As time went by, even Zheng Xiyao almost thought that she had enough alcohol to drink.
Zheng Xiyao looked at Hawke beside her. A drunken blush appeared on her face, and a few strands of hair were scattered between her eyebrows. She looked very charming.
The male protagonist looks distant and aloof from the incident, calm and calm. He didn't pay any attention to Zheng Xiyao's situation. She looked away, her peripheral vision fell on the bottle hand beside her, she paused slightly, then reached for the second bottle of wine.
The third bottle.
The fourth bottle.
Until the tenth bottle.
A hand with sharp bones pressed her hand that was holding the wine bottle, and smoothly pulled the bottle out of her hand. Hawke's eyes were cold and he said, "We are here to eat, not to buy you a drink."
Zheng Xiyao lowered his head dumbly and said nothing.
Hawke looked back and put down the bottle in his hand.
He raised his eyes and sneered: "Why is your service attitude like this? Are you leaving your customers hungry?"
Zheng Xiyao reacted for a while, bowed slowly and left the box.
At this time, Wang Yali suddenly ran out and stopped her as she came out of the box: "Zheng Xiyao, how can you, a new employee, enter and exit the VIP box at will?"
Zheng Xiyao's bright eyes showed a blur of light from time to time, as if staring at something invisible. He had a smile on his face, as if he was amused by something interesting.
Wang Yali was irritated by the woman's appearance, thinking that Zheng Xiyao was laughing at her, so she pointed angrily at the woman's face.
"Sister Wang, you were not present at that time. It was all arranged by the boss. I feel that based on my experience, it is really not suitable to go to the VIP box. How about Sister Wang talk to the boss and let's make a change?" Zheng Xiyao interrupted Wang Yali, calmly Open your mouth. By the way, he forwarded to her all the requests that he had just jotted down in his mind in the box.
The woman was suspicious, but she couldn't find any flaws in Zheng Xiyao's sincere expression, so she had to go to the boss to rearrange.
Then she saw Wang Yali enter the box and said sincerely: "Sir, do you need any help?" Wang Yali had a well-placed smile on her face, "Let me help you -"
Seeing that everything was going well, Zheng Xiyao turned and left, heading towards the front desk. She didn't notice the male protagonist looking at her leaving back, his eyes as dark as the abyss.
[Host, is this okay? 】The system is worried whether the temporary change of service personnel will anger the male protagonist.
Zheng Xiyao didn't care. [Her honey and my arsenic are just right. 】
[Is there any way for me to leave now? 】
[Host, there is actually something I haven’t told you. 】
【What? 】
[Actually, in addition to staying in each world for a certain amount of time, your task also has a hidden task. 】
Zheng Xiyao looked at the system in confusion, waiting for its answer.
[You need to get a hidden fragment from the male protagonist. 】
【what is that? 】
[Ah, this] The system hesitated for a long time [You don’t have permission to know it yet, you will know it when you gather all the pieces. 】
【Why do I think you are lying to me? 】Zheng Xiyao keenly felt that the system knew something.
【how come? Host, you are overthinking this. 】
[However, this is too unreasonable. In my current situation, I should stay away from the male protagonist to survive. Now I want to get something from the male protagonist. Are you sure you don’t want me to die? 】
[Tsk, who’s to blame for this? It’s not your fault. 】The system muttered.
【What did you say? 】
[It’s all the Lord God’s fault, host. Now you can only get points and go home if you complete the task. Come on, I believe in you! 】
【You, wait a moment. 】Zheng Xiyao watched the system disappear in front of her eyes, and she hadn't finished what she wanted to ask.
"Aren't you serving in the private room again? Why are you out?" Mark at the bar asked in surprise when he saw Zheng Xiyao coming to the front desk and stopping to wipe the ordinary wine glass.
"I don't have enough experience. It would be more appropriate for Sister Wang to do such an important thing," Zheng Xiyao replied calmly.
Mark had a clear look on his face, probably thinking that Wang Yali had snatched away her 'big client' again. After all, in addition to the high commission, the VIP service also provided a lot of consumption. It’s enough for a week’s salary.
When Zheng Xiyao saw Mark's misunderstanding, she didn't explain it and just focused on doing her own thing.
Mark's hand kept poking his arm, Zheng Xiyao was a little helpless: "Brother, I'm busy, I'll talk about it later if I have something to do."
"Xiyao, behind you..." Mark pointed behind her with a solemn expression.
Zheng Xiyao turned around and saw Hawke folding his arms and looking at her seriously. Arthur next to him looked like he was watching a good show, while Wang Yali was trembling with fear.
What's going on here?
