Meanwhile, Xia Roulin was nowhere to be found at the hotel.

She was in her car, driving toward a bar.

She knew that it was very likely that she had lost to Xia Weilan. The more she thought about it, the more she felt agitated. She contacted a few close friends to have a drink with her.

Ouyang Mingqi received the news and rushed to the bar. By the time he arrived at the bar, he saw a few empty bottles of red wine placed in front of Xia Roulin. She had been drinking quite a fair bit.

“Mr Ouyang!” One of Xia Roulin’s friends noticed Ouyang Mingqi.

Without his identity as the young master of the Ouyang Family, others addressed him as ‘master of donation’, ‘living buddha’. He had upheld a good reputation in the eyes of others. Everyone was polite and respectful toward him when they saw him.

“Why are you here!” Xia Roulin swept a glance at him and said in an unfriendly manner.

“Young miss, why are you drinking so much?” Ouyang Mingqi sat beside her and pretended to be worried about her.

Xia Roulin’s friends exchanged glances and their eyes brightened up. They could sense that those two had an unusual relationship.

“That’s none of your concern. Don’t pretend to be a good person!” Xia Roulin kicked him. The anger in her made her want to throw a fit. “Get lost!”

“Roulin, you’re drunk!” Ouyang Mingqi let her kick him. He wasn’t upset but gently stared at her

It appears that Ouyang Mingqi was gentle and polite. But in fact, he was long out of patience. Xia Roulin was an ungrateful woman. He had provided her with so much information but she only treated him like a dog who’s willing to do anything for her without any sense of gratitude.

His eyes turned dull when he thought about that. He said gently, “Stop drinking!”

Xia Roulin heard his words and immediately raised her wine glass and said coldly, “What does it have to do with you!”

She tilted her head and took a big gulp.

Seeing this, a painful emotion appeared on Ouyang Mingqi’s face. He suddenly raised his wine glass and said as he stared affectionately at Xia Roulin, “Okay, since you wanted to drink, I’ll accompany you then.”

“Wow!” Xia Roulin’s friends were envious when they saw the scene happening before their eyes. They felt that Xia Roulin had struck the jackpot for having such a nice man courting her.

“Is Roulin dating Master Ouyang?”

“It looks like it. Just look at Master Ouyang’s expression, he looked just like her boyfriend. It must be Roulin’s fault for not changing her foul temper.”

“That must be it. Master Ouyang is so manly.”

The few girls gathered together with their eyes filled with admiration as they talked secretly while staring at the couple.

“I’m so sorry that I’ve spoiled everyone’s mood.” Ouyang Mingqi walked over to Xia Roulin and wrapped his arms around her waist when he saw that she was almost knocked out.

“No, not at all.” Xia Roulin’s friends opened their eyes wide and let out a profound smile.

“Master Ouyang, why don’t you send Roulin home first?”

“Yeah, Roulin has gotten so drunk. She can’t drink anymore.”

Ouyang Mingqi lowered his gaze to stare at Xia Roulin. A cynical look flashed across his face and he immediately left the bar with her.

In the VIP room, Xia Roulin’s friends were envious. But one of them asked worriedly, “It’s so late now. Is it appropriate for a bachelor man and a single lady to…what if…”

“What are you worried about? Everyone in Beijing knows that Master Ouyang was a rightful person. Moreover, can’t you tell they have an unusual relationship? It’s even very likely that they are dating each other. Even if they are not, with Master Ouyang’s personality, he is definitely not those who take advantage of others.”

The girls talked for a while more and continued drinking as they gossiped. They had absolutely no idea that Ouyang Mingqi didn’t send Xia Roulin home but brought her to a hotel instead.

The next morning.

Xia Roulin woke up in a daze. She was stunned when she realized she was not inside her own room. Waves of anger swept across her very quickly when she shifted her gaze to find Ouyang Mingqi laying naked next to her on the bed.

“You jerk!” Xia Roulin immediately kicked Ouyang Mingqi and pointed her finger at him. Her finger almost poked his nostril as she furiously exclaimed, “Ouyang Mingqi! How dare you do this to me!”

Ouyang Mingqi got off the floor, feeling annoyed. However, he controlled his anger and by the time he turned his face around, he had already put on a painful expression, “I have no idea how this happened. I drank a lot too last night. I’m sorry. I will pay the responsibility.”

“Get lost! Who wants you to be responsible! Who do you think you are!” Xia Roulin picked up the glass on the table and threw it toward Ouyang Mingqi.

Ouyang Mingqi suddenly loosened his perfectly refrained expression. He instantly dodged and couldn’t believe what he had heard.

“What did you say?”

“Ouyang Mingqi! Know your place well. The Ouyang family is nothing compared to the Xia Family! Don’t try to use this to approach me. Let me tell you, only Mo Beichen deserves to stand next to me. I won’t set my eyes on other lowlifes.”

Ouyang Mingqi let out a cold laugh secretly. Xia Roulin was thinking too highly of herself that she thought she’s a precious treasure. In fact, she’s a granddaughter of the Xia Family who got her surname of Xia because her father shamelessly agreed to be a married-in son-in-law.

“There, there. Calm down. I’ll help you to fill the tub!” Ouyang Mingqi casually put on his clothes and went into the bathroom.

When he reappeared, he took a bathrobe for Xia Roulin and walked beside her. He said gently, “If you are unwilling, I won’t force you. Regardless, just look for me if you run into any troubles in the future. I owe you.”

‘Smack’. Xia Roulin gave a slap across his face without hesitating. She proclaimed, “I’ll just take it as if I’ve been bitten by a dog!”

After Xia Roulin entered the bathroom, Ouyang Mingqi lifted the corner lips while staring into the mirror. A vicious look appeared in his eyes and he looked sinister. He picked up his phone and instructed someone to deliver Xia Roulin some designer clothing.

Xia Roulin was ready to throw another round of fit when she walked out of the bathroom. When she saw that Ouyang Mingqi had put in so much effort for her, she backed up a little. However, she still refused to look him in the eye.

By the time Xia Roulin reached Xia Corps with an upset mood, it was already late.

The moment she reached the project department, she was dragged into the office by Xue Zhiqing. He questioned her with an unpleasant look, “What is going on? Weren’t you meeting Z to talk about the business collaboration yesterday? Why is Z coming to the office today with Xia Weilan? And why is your phone switched off? I am about to throw a fit because of you!”
