Chapter 30 - I Want To Devote My Life To You

“Where did you go?” When he went back to the banquet, Ji Naitang met Zhuo Xiaozhuo. This guy had changed his previous attitude and was now suddenly treating him like a good friend.

Ji Naitang looked at him like he was looking at a fool. Zhuo Xiaozhuo snorted. “What kind of expression is that? Do you want a drink?” He handed a glass of wine to Ji Naitang.

Ji Naitang shook his head. “I don’t drink.”

“Come on. You can fight so well, but you can’t drink?!”

Ji Naitang looked up at Cen Muqi, who wasn’t too far away. Fortunately, Cen Muqi was surrounded by several wealthy businessmen after they came back. The banquet was more like a party, so everyone was eating and chatting and no one paid much attention to a minor character like him.

“Zhuo Xiaozhuo, I’m warning you. If you……”

“All right, don’t worry. I’ll keep it a secret for you.” Zhuo Xiaozhuo held Ji Naitang’s arm and whispered in his ear, “You helped me, so I’m ready to devote my life to you. Do you want it?”

Zhuo Xiaozhuo was 177 centimeters tall [~ 5’8”], 3 centimeters shorter than Ji Naitang. But he was better-looking and more flirtatious than Ji Naitang. There were a lot of people who liked him.

Ji Naitang didn’t even think about and replied, “No.”

“You don’t want me even if I deliver myself to your door? I don’t need you to be responsible and I’m free for you to eat. Between you and CEO Cen, you must be the one on the bottom. Don’t you want to try being on top?”

Ji Naitang raised his eyebrow. “Are you that good?”

Zhuo Xiaozhuo said proudly, “Of course. I danced since I was young. My body is very flexible. I can be in all sorts of positions. I guarantee that you’ll try it once and won’t be able to let me go.”

“Oh ~ How many times did CEO Yao tried?”

Zhuo Xiaozhuo stiffened. Ji Naitang continued, “How strange. Since you’re so good in bed, why did you get dumped by CEO Yao in less than a week?”

“Ji Naitang!” Zhuo Xiaozhuo gnashed his teeth in anger. Ji Naitang quietly pulled his arm away and smiled mockingly at him before turning to leave.

Zhuo Xiaozhuo angrily put his hands on his hips. He angrily thought that he didn’t believe that he couldn’t sleep with Ji Naitang!

The banquet didn’t end until 11:00 p.m. Ji Naitang and Cen Muqi went to take a shower in their room. They heard a knock on the door when they finished. Ji Naitang walked over and opened the door.

Cen Muqi was lying in bed as he watched Ji Naitang bring something over and place it down on a table. He asked, puzzled, “What is it?”

“It’s sobering congee. You drank a lot of wine earlier, CEO Cen. You’ll be more comfortable after eating this.” Ji Naitang scooped some congee into a small bowl. At this time, a phone rang in the room.

Cen Muqi looked at the phone next to bed. It was Ji Naitang’s. “Your phone.”

Ji Naitang was focused on the congee and wasn’t listening. Cen Muqi looked at the phone and couldn’t help but accept the call. Then he raised his voice and said, “Ji Naitang, your phone.”

“Ah? Who is it?”

Ji Naitang put down the spoon and walked over. Cen Muqi mildly said, “Chunhua ~ Your lover?”

Ji Naitang staggered. He coughed and picked up his phone. “She’s my grandfather’s housekeeper.” He then held the phone and walked over to the floor-to-ceiling windows.

“Hello? What is it?”

The other side was silent for a moment before Yao Yuanjing’s extremely furious voice sounded. “Ji Naitang, explain to me what the hell is Chunhua?”

Ji Naitang calmly replied, “Chunhua jie,* did my grandfather’s condition worsen?”

[Jie or jiejie = literally: “older sister,” can be used to denote familiarity or respect]

Yao Yuanjing tried hard to suppress his anger. He was afraid that he would accidentally anger himself to death. That would be a bad deal for him. He took a few deep breaths and said solemnly, “Do you know that Cen Muqi sent someone to the bar to investigate you?”

Ji Naitang slightly froze and looked subconsciously at Cen Muqi, who was in bed. Their eyes met.
