MTL - Dressed As Scum A Marked the Crazy Beauty Boss-Chapter 57
Cheng Jing took a glass of red wine, beckoned for the juice waiter to come over, and brought Cheng Jiqing a glass of orange juice.
Then clink glasses with Zhou Yushu as a response.
Cheng Jiqing was overwhelmed with alcohol, but she didn't intend to stop drinking, but she accepted Cheng Jing's offer.
Do not drink if you can.
Zhou Yushu looked at the orange juice in Cheng Jiqing's hand, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the white figure in cheongsam approaching, lowered his eyelids, and said nothing.
Think about showing Bai Xin—the alpha you like can't even drink a sip of wine.
Zhou Yushu has known Bai Xin for many years, and never imagined that Cheng Jiqing would be Bai Xin's favorite in the end.
According to Tang Jia, Cheng Jiqing might be a pretty good person.
But in her eyes, Cheng Jiqing was still not good enough for Bai Xin.
Bai Xin came slowly from not far away, her figure was enchanting under the white cheongsam, her face was so stunning that many people around her were looking at her.
Cheng Jiqing couldn't avoid clichés, not to mention that the other party was Bai Xin, and she couldn't control her gaze.
Bai Xin approached several people and greeted them one by one, and finally Cheng Jiqing said, "Mr. Cheng, don't come here without any problems."
Cheng Jiqing: "..."
Cheng Jiqing smiled from the bottom of his heart, with the usual emotion on his face, and said, "Long time no see, Miss Bai."
She hasn't touched the amusement park project that Cheng Bai and his two cooperated for a month, so naturally she and Bai Xin won't meet. This conversation couldn't be more normal.
finished.
When Bai Xin went to get the red wine on the tray, his fingers just touched it. He didn't know whether the tray was unstable or she didn't hold it firmly. The glass of wine was about to fall on her.
Cheng Jiqing's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously wanted to step forward to pull someone back!
But at the same time, it was discovered that Zhou Yushu had already grabbed Bai Xin's hand first, and the other hand was also holding the wine glass.
The action is extremely fast.
She was not as close as Zhou Yushu after three steps, her fingertips paused in mid-air, and then retracted quickly.
When she was relaxing, her eyes rested on Zhou Yushu's wrist, and the golden watch was shining brightly under the luxurious lights.
It's still the same watch as Bai Xin.
For some reason, she looked at Bai Xin's left hand at this time - Bai Xin didn't wear that watch today.
"Are you okay?"
"Thank you, Mr. Zhou." Bai Xin held his glass steady.
Cheng Jiqing looked away, probably because of her delusion, she always felt that Zhou Yushu's tone of voice to Bai Xin was very familiar.
Zhou Yushu had already stood still, watching Cheng Jiqing drink the orange juice.
"Xiao Cheng can't drink anymore? Why does he only drink orange juice?"
After finishing the words, Bai Xin raised the end of his eyes and looked over, but others couldn't see it, Zhou Yushu knew that there was already a hint of displeasure in those eyes.
Cheng Jiqing and Zhou Yushu only met a few times, and they didn't say more than ten sentences, but just now, she heard a trace of unfriendliness.
She hasn't spoken yet.
Cheng Jing said: "Chengcheng doesn't drink much, Mr. Zhou wants to drink, I will accompany you later."
Cheng Jiqing's eyes were light, and she said, "You can drink some too."
In the past, she would not pay attention to it. After all, she is not in the business circle. What does Zhou Yushu have to do with her?
But today it was strange, she just didn't feel comfortable hearing those words.
When clinking wine glasses, Cheng Jiqing met Bai Xin's eyes and suddenly understood - oh, who wants to be exposed by others in front of his own woman?
She seemed to care about something else, but she couldn't explain it for a while.
Time is up.
Cheng Jing, as the protagonist of today's banquet, went to the stage to give a speech. He gave a few short words without deep words, and the applause was loud. Some even had their palms flushed red.
It has to be said that the Cheng family's prestige in Beicheng is still extremely high.
After Cheng Jing finished speaking, he stepped down to communicate with friends in the shopping mall. He originally wanted to bring Cheng Jiqing along, but Cheng Jiqing declined.
Naturally, Cheng Jing wouldn't force it at this time, and just told him not to leave, and to talk later.
Cheng Jiqing nodded in agreement.
Obviously, today she had the opportunity to ask about the real situation of the fire fifteen years ago.
However, for her, this is a very boring social banquet full of interests.
Cheng Jiqing wanted to find a quiet place, but as the second young lady of the Cheng family, and the younger sister whom Cheng Jing valued especially, she naturally became a 'target of public criticism'.
In just ten minutes, she had already sent away several wealthy daughters.
No matter how much the wine in his hand was pecked, most of it was gone.
She knew how much she could drink, so she didn't dare to drink any more, so she simply went out to the corridor. When she was walking out, she looked for Bai Xin's figure. She was called away by Bai Zhaoliang just now, and she hadn't seen anyone for a while.
"Cheng Jiqing."
Cheng Jiqing heard Qin Yufu's voice and turned his head: "Miss Qin."
"I call you by your name, why are you so polite?" Qin Yufu approached and smiled.
Last time at the banquet, she and Cheng Jiqing were still in conflict. Who would have thought that they could get along so harmoniously now.
"Do you need help?"
"Help for what?" Cheng Jiqing asked with a smile, she was still looking for Bai Xin while she was replying.
"Let me stay with you for a while, it can help you avoid some troubles." Qin Yufu swept her eyes aside and said, "I think you have some headaches."
Half joking, half serious.
It refers to the matter of dismissing 'Peach Blossom' just now.
Cheng Jiqing was also funny and helpless, not all of these people were really interested in her, most of them were because of Cheng's relationship.
Indeed a headache.
"It's okay, I'm going to go outside to get some air."
Cheng Jiqing said in his heart that because of her dealings with Qin Yufu, Bai Xin had an awkward fight with her twice.
If I really want to stay so ignorant for a while, the cat will scratch her somehow when I go back.
But she also understood Bai Xin's thoughts, after all, her relationship with Qin Yufu was really complicated.
Qin Yufu didn't say much after hearing the words, and said, "I still have to thank you about the cat."
"I didn't do anything." Cheng Jiqing asked, "Have you decided to adopt it?"
"Well, I moved out of the Qin family, and my mother can't do without that person, but you're right, I also have my own life." Qin Yufu smiled slightly, "I'll pick him up next week."
Qin Yufu's state was completely different from when Cheng Jiqing saw her for the first time, and her whole body was filled with bright vitality.
Not so preoccupied.
Cheng Jiqing nodded: "It's a good thing."
Qin Yufu took a sip of soda and said friendly, "If you want to watch it in the future, you can come and see it."
Cheng Jiqing also developed some affection for that cat, and he was definitely reluctant to part with it.
As for meeting the cat at Qin Yufu's place, she had no plans.
But she still complied verbally.
Just as he was talking, Cheng Jiqing took a casual glance, and suddenly saw her eye-catching omega.
When the person in the middle left, she could see more clearly. The woman was standing sideways, with a seductive figure, talking to the person in front of her with a calm expression.
She stepped sideways and saw clearly the person who was talking to Bai Xin——Zhou Yushu.
"Look at what?"
Qin Yufu turned her head and followed her gaze.
"Zhou Yushu, Mr. Zhou." Cheng Jiqing asked casually, "Are Bai Xin and Zhou Yushu very familiar? I don't seem to have heard of them."
"As far as I know, I'm not familiar with it."
Cheng Jiqing thought, yes, judging from her contact, she should also be unfamiliar.
It's just that it feels weird, and she cares a little unconsciously.
Cheng Jiqing didn't know that at the same time she looked away, Bai Xin looked at her...
"I just mentioned that sentence, what about you?"
Zhou Yushu's voice was light: "It seems like I'm bullying her?"
Bai Xin stared at the two talking in the distance, raised his eyelids slightly, and glanced at Zhou Yushu: "You don't have that ability."
Cheng Jiqing was easy to talk to, and so was her impression at first, but after a little getting along with her, she knew that Cheng Jiqing was not easy to bully.
"I wonder if you have been given pua by someone."
"Zhou Yushu, I'll only say it once." Bai Xin said word by word, "Don't worry about things you shouldn't care about."
Zhou Yushu's expression changed slightly, she turned her head and didn't say anything. She was upset, but she couldn't get angry with Bai Xin.
It's still her who suffers when she loses her temper, as she has always done all these years.
Bai Xinben has such a temperament, as long as he cares about something, others don't want to touch it.
She suddenly remembered a past event.
The second month after Lu Man's death.
At that time, Bai Xin had not been picked up by Bai Zhaoliang.
On the way home from school, Bai Xin picked up a stray dog, which was covered in jet black. He took it back to take a bath and found that it was a white dog.
Ordinary pastoral dog, I do not know where it came from, very well-behaved.
Bai Xin likes it very much, and she is extremely patient, which is almost the only joy in her life.
I don't know why the dog had a bad temper one day, yelling like crazy in the yard and biting everyone. The people in the community wanted to deal with it, but Bai Xin rushed in without hesitation—
It really doesn't matter.
A thirteen-year-old girl is not afraid of a ferocious dog that bites off human flesh at any time.
Just rush in and protect it.
Everyone thought the girl was crazy, and she thought so when she stood at the door.
How can a mad dog stay, how can a child be worth an adult.
Bai Xin watched the dog die, right in her arms, that hand was covered in blood, and she didn't feel any pain, she didn't even shed a tear.
later-
Bai Xin never raised anything again.
But from then on, she knew that she was willing to pay the price for what Bai Xin cared about.
Zhou Yushu came back to his senses, now Bai Xin naturally values Cheng Jiqing more than that dog...
She really lost her fighting spirit now, she said: "You should think carefully."
Bai Xin didn't speak.
She looked in Cheng Jiqing's direction from time to time, the two of them didn't speak for a long time, Qin Yufu had already left, but the people around Cheng Jiqing never stopped.
In the next second, she saw Cheng Jing walking over.
"I'll just remind you once more."
Zhou Yushu looked towards Cheng Jing and Cheng Jiqing with a calm expression, and whispered like a normal conversation: "Unless you give up something, Cheng Jing will know your plan sooner or later, let alone what Cheng Jiqing thinks, Cheng Jing will never You are allowed to have any contact with Cheng Jiqing."
"See? How much Cheng Jing loves Cheng Jiqing."
Zhou Yushu looked at the crowd.
Cheng Jing was talking to Cheng Jiqing gently with his head turned sideways, with his arm slightly behind Cheng Jiqing's back, leading her to talk to the guests.
Bai Xin's eyes darkened slightly, as if he didn't listen to Zhou Yushu's words, and said coldly: "It's not a new thing."
"Well, I'm just reminding you at the end, don't forget what you thought at the beginning."
Someone came over to toast, Zhou Yushu turned and left without saying anything.
Together with the sentence from the bottom of my heart-remind you, don't take it too seriously.
That is to use, so don't put yourself in danger.
She believed that Bai Xin could understand.
Even in early October, the huge banquet hall was fully air-conditioned, and there were many people around, adding to the trouble for no reason.
Bai Xin walked away from Cheng Jiqing's back, lowered his head and took a sip of wine, did Zhou Yushu think she hadn't thought about these things?
She didn't care about Cheng Jing.
She only cared that Cheng Jiqing's heart was with her.
As for anything else.
She can't help it now.
It is probably the idea of muddling along.
Her thoughts are often very dirty - just wait, until she and Cheng Jiqing can't be separated anymore... Cheng Jiqing can't leave her anymore.
At that time, she might be able to tell Cheng Jiqing.
At that time, Cheng Jiqing would understand her.
can you?
Bai Xin asked again in his heart.
In the end there was no answer.
Maybe it was because she didn't dig into the answer herself, no matter what, she couldn't let go of Cheng Jiqing. Whether now or in the future, whoever stops her is her enemy.
What about my sister?
…
After all, Cheng Jiqing went to say hello with Cheng Jing, but after a few rounds, she really lost her interest and didn't feel at ease, she always felt that something was not very comfortable.
Tell Cheng Jing that he had a few sips and now he has to go out to catch his breath.
Cheng Jing: "Are you okay?"
"It's okay, it's just a little boring here." Cheng Jiqing shook his head.
Cheng Jing said: "Then you go. If you are really tired, go upstairs to rest."
Cheng Jiqing complied, went out and took his mobile phone from his handbag to send Bai Xin a wechat message.
[Miss Bai, I have to go back later, don't drink too much today. 】
After a moment of silence, I found an emoji from the emoji pack and sent it, which was still stolen from Song Ling.
Cheng Jiqing: [pat the head.JPG]
She will have to meet Cheng Jing soon after the banquet, and she is not sure when she will go back, but Bai Xin must have left first, so she is not very relieved.
After posting, she went to the corridor outside.
Cheng Jiqing took a deep breath, as if a fire was burning somewhere, making her feel dry inside.
Maybe it was like this, which made her heart beat faster, and her glands also pulsated.
chug.
My heart is itchy and stuffy.
She felt uncomfortable in the hallway, and moved forward slowly, trying to stay away from the hustle and bustle of the banquet.
Then she saw someone smoking a cigarette standing in front of her.
Zhou Yushu was standing next to a few pots of green plants, puffing and puffing. Hearing the sound of footsteps, he turned his head, paused while holding a cigarette, and said with a moderate smile, "Mr. Cheng also came out."
Cheng Jiqing's indifference to this person has grown from indifference to even more indifference.
Obviously no contact.
She nodded: "Yes."
"After Mr. Cheng sold his shares, he didn't handle the company's affairs, so he didn't plan to do anything else?" It seemed to be chatting.
Cheng Jiqing had no choice but to leave immediately.
To the outside, except for Yuan Sheng and Bai Xin, and the lawyer who handled the contract, no one knew that she had invested the money in Lan Qi.
She suddenly thought that the Yixin she signed also had XM's shares, and she didn't care about it before, but now she feels that she should avoid it.
But after she started filming, outsiders will know about it sooner or later.
"Mr. Zhou will know later." She smiled.
Hearing this, Zhou Yushu bit the cigarette in his mouth and took another puff: "Really, then wait for the good news."
That uncomfortable feeling surged again, and she was almost sure that Zhou Yushu was indeed hostile to her.
Cheng Jiqing was about to leave, and looked at Zhou Yushu's raised watch: "What brand is Mr. Zhou's watch, I haven't seen it before."
In fact, it is a common style, but the chain lines are unique and really beautiful.
She doesn't wear a watch, and she didn't pay much attention to it in the past, but today it's strange, as if her nerves have been pulled over.
Zhou Yushu lowered his eyes and glanced: "It's just a miscellaneous brand, Xiao Cheng always likes me to send a piece over."
Cheng Jiqing shook his head when he heard the words, and said with a smile: "Thank you, that's unnecessary, I just think it looks pretty."
Without further words, Cheng Jiqing made an excuse to go to the bathroom and turned to leave.
Zhou Yushu condensed his figure away, and after a while, he looked down at his watch.
That time when Bai Xin was framed, almost after Cheng Jiqing's villa had an accident, she had someone specially order this watch. In critical moments, Bai Xin can contact her at any time.
Like the KTV thing last time.
At that time, I ordered two pieces, Bai Xin had one piece, and she also kept one piece.
Only her emergency contact is the secretary.
Like the car accident last time.
Tang Jia reminded her to be careful of being noticed, she felt that making a fuss over a molehill, a watch was still an ordinary style. She and Bai Xin rarely appear in public together.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Jiqing would suddenly ask her about the watch.
Zhou Yushu suddenly thought, Cheng Jiqing is actually quite pitiful, from her point of view, she actually doesn't know anything about Bai Xin.
Her mind was instantly balanced.
Zhou Yushu put out the cigarette, and after a while, lit another one.
…
Cheng Jiqing walked to the wooden chair in the backyard to rest. The drizzle had stopped, leaving only the vapor of a city blown back and forth by the groundless wind.
It hit her skin from time to time, but it didn't suppress the dryness in her body.
The glands tingled suddenly.
She raised her hand and touched her neck, but she couldn't feel anything, and the itching subsided within a few seconds.
The phone vibrated, and half an hour had passed since the last time I sent a WeChat message to Bai Xin.
Bai Xin: [Go back together. 】
Cheng Jiqing: [Then don't drink too much. 】
Cheng Jiqing was really afraid of Bai Xin crying, it was heart-wrenching and at a loss.
Bai Xin didn't return right away, probably because he was obsessed with 'socializing'. Cheng Jiqing sat on the chair for another half an hour.
When it was almost eight o'clock, someone came to call her.
It was Secretary Liu next to Cheng Jing.
"Mr. Cheng, Mr. Cheng didn't feel well after drinking, so he helped him upstairs to rest. Go and have a look."
Cheng Jiqing was startled: "Isn't she a pretty good drinker?"
I don't know where the raindrops came from. Secretary Liu wiped his forehead and said, "I'm not drunk, I just didn't eat at noon, and I drank a lot of wine, so I have a stomach problem. I just tried to persuade her, but I couldn't persuade her."
Cheng Jiqing stood up upon hearing the words, "Then go and have a look."
Cheng Jiqing followed Secretary Liu to the elevator, passed by the crowd, and met Bai Xin's eyes, only to be missed by the crowd for a moment.
She bowed her head and sent Bai Xin a sentence: [Cheng Jing is not feeling well, I'll go upstairs to have a look. 】
After Bai Xingang had a brief conversation with a partner, he walked to the side to look at his phone.
Before she opened it, a white hand approached with a red wine glass in front of her. She raised her eyes to see that she knew this woman—Cheng Jing's lover.
The surname is Tu.
Tu Xiuxiu smiled: "Miss Bai, would you mind having a drink?"
Bai Xin's expression was calm, and the corners of his mouth curled up indifferently: "If I mind, will Miss Tu leave?"
Tu Xiuxiu didn't care: "Find a place with few people, I think Miss Bai won't regret it."
Before Bai Xin could refuse, Tu Xiuxiu lowered her upper body slightly, and said in a low voice, "Are you not interested in Mr. Cheng and Cheng Jing? I know you are together and have seen it with your own eyes. Don't think about how to frame me."
Direct can no longer be direct.
There was no nervousness on Bai Xin's face, he just looked at Tu Xiuxiu leisurely: "Please."
The suite on the top floor of the hotel opens.
The door of Cheng Jing's room was open, and when Cheng Jiqing walked in, he saw Cheng Jing leaning on the bed profusely with sweat, frowning tightly, with a pained look on his face.
"You go out."
Cheng Jing didn't know that it was Cheng Jiqing who came in.
Cheng Jiqing said, "Why is it so serious?"
Cheng Jing opened his slightly closed eyes, saw Cheng Jiqing's eyelashes moving slightly, and frowned, "What did you call Cheng Cheng?"
There is a touch of incense in the room, the smell of lavender.
Secretary Liu took the lead and said, "You don't want anyone to stay here. I don't worry about it, so I just..."
Cheng Jing didn't want Cheng Jiqing to see his sickly appearance, just about to say something, he heard Cheng Jiqing say in a warm voice:
"Stop talking, and rest if you feel uncomfortable."
Then she couldn't speak.
Ever since Cheng Jiqing separated from her, no matter what happened to her, Cheng Jiqing had never cared about her.
Tu Xiuxiu was taking care of her most of the time.
Cheng Jing thought for a moment, she hasn't seen Tu Xiuxiu at today's banquet, did she not come?
Cheng Jiqing: "Did you call the doctor?"
Cheng Jing came back to his senses: "It's okay, I've taken the medicine... It's an old problem."
It's just that my stomach is uncomfortable, and I feel a little groggy after drinking again, and I want to sleep.
"Well, then you rest."
"I can only squint for a while, there are still so many people waiting below."
The host of the birthday party is not here, what do you say?
Cheng Jiqing paused: "Do you need me to go?"
Cheng Jing was comforted in his heart, endured the stomachache, and said warmly: "I know you don't like it, I'll just go down when it's almost over."
Cheng Jiqing didn't say anything after hearing that.
Secretary Liu said: "President Xiao Cheng, why don't you stay here first? I'll go down and have a look."
"good."
Cheng Jiqing simply agreed.
There was less than an hour before the end of the banquet, and it was okay to take care of this time, but I just didn't know if I could ask anything today.
She glanced sideways at Cheng Jing, and met that joyful gaze.
"Orange."
"Need anything? Tell me."
Cheng Jing looked weak, smiled and said: "Chengcheng, I'll take a nap for a while, call me soon."
Cheng Jiqing nodded.
Ying Wan walked out the door, but didn't close the door tightly, leaving a palm gap.
Cheng Jiqing sat on the sofa for more than ten minutes, and just now he patted his face and neck with cold water, but he was still flustered, especially the glands, which seemed to be fine, but they always felt swollen inside, and occasionally itched.
Restlessly scrolling through Weibo, Bai Xin's phone popped up.
She didn't pick it up right away, and walked a few more steps to the balcony: "Hello?"
"Why didn't you reply to my message?"
Cheng Jiqing paused: "You sent it? Didn't remind me, what's wrong?"
Baixin's other end was very quiet, without any noise from the banquet.
"Just you and Cheng Jing?"
"Well, she's sleeping in the room."
"get down."
"Not now, she's not feeling well, let me watch for a while."
Bai Xin fell silent.
"Room No."
Cheng Jiqing: "...you don't want to come up? I still have half an hour to go down."
The tone has a gentle soothing component.
Cheng Jiqing could hear the irritability in those words. After getting to know Bai Xin, she knew very well that Bai Xin could always do things that were difficult for her to control.
Although she didn't know what happened to Bai Xin suddenly.
"Room No."
Cheng Jiqing: "..."
Cheng Jiqing asked, "What's wrong with you?"
The next second, the phone hung up.
Cheng Jiqing: "..."
She clicked on WeChat: [What happened? 】
After waiting for two minutes, no one came back. Just as he was thinking of asking again, Bai Xin replied: 【Open the door. 】
Cheng Jiqing: "...?"
Cheng Jiqing got up from the sofa and went to the door to look at the cat's eye. Outside the door—Bai Xin's expression was calm, maybe his cheeks were a little rosy after drinking some wine, and he looked amazingly beautiful with the cheongsam on top.
Her heart skipped a beat, and the agitation just now seemed to be a little stronger.
Looking back in the direction of Cheng Jing's door, carefully opened the door.
Bai Xin's face softened when he saw the person, and he was not very happy: "Come out."
Cheng Jiqing took a step closer and said in a low voice, "Why are you here? You go down first, and I'll be down in a while."
There is a corridor outside, people come at any time, Cheng Jing is inside the room, and they may come out.
Cheng Jiqing didn't bother to ask Bai Xin what happened all of a sudden.
Bai Xin looked at Cheng Jiqing, stepped into the door, and said, "I'll go in if you don't come out."
Cheng Jiqing backed away unconsciously, and the door closed automatically.
"..." Cheng Jiqing said angrily, "What's the matter with you? Be good, stop making trouble."
How come some don't care?
Bai Xin pinched the pads of his fingers, and his nails scraped slightly on the skin.
I sent a message to Cheng Jiqing just now, but there was no response.
Hearing on the phone that Cheng Jiqing was left alone to take care of Cheng Jing, he refused to give the room number, and refused to go downstairs.
She felt that everything was going wrong.
There was also a feeling that Cheng Jiqing was protecting Cheng Jing.
If she hadn't heard Tu Xiuxiu's words, she didn't care how long Cheng Jiqing stayed here, and she wouldn't have such displeasure.
But she heard—
An unrelated older sister not only concealed the relationship from Cheng Jiqing, but also developed feelings for this younger sister.
That's different.
Bai Xin sneered from the bottom of his heart, his anger was not going well, and he controlled not to spit on Cheng Jiqing. The two pledged each other, and his tone changed unconsciously.
"I don't want you here today."
Cheng Jiqing heard the feeling of acting like a baby, her ears went numb, and her glands twitched even more violently.
It made her flustered.
The voice was extremely low, but the people in the room were still awake.
Cheng Jing slowly opened his eyes...

The author has something to say:
Sister Bai: Either sister, or rival in love!
