Half an hour later.

Z CLUB.

Did he ask her to come to the bar to have fun?

Ji Xiao got out of the car and looked at the reflection in front of the glass door. The off-shoulder strap outlined her delicate collarbones. Under the short skirt, her slender legs were shining white, and her slightly curly long hair made her look sexy and charming.

The last time she dressed like this was when she went out to play with her roommates in college.

She felt uncomfortable all over.

"What are you waiting for?" Jiang Yi walked over from behind Ji Xiao. He had changed into a black casual suit with a cigarette in his mouth. He rested his arm casually on her shoulder and said, "Hey gorgeous, why don't we go in for a drink?"

Ji Xiao shook off his hand.

"I didn't expect that you, who is usually decent, would have such a naughty side in private."

Jiang Yi had booked a private room in advance, and the two of them walked inside.

"Life is too dull. If I don't find something to do and be happy, won't I be bored?"

As he spoke, Jiang Yi pushed open the door of the private room.

She thought it was just a gathering of a few people, but she didn't expect that there were so many people sitting in the room.

"Wow, that's strange. Jiang Yi brought a beautiful woman with him today?"

"Tut-tut, tut-tut, what a good figure. Why don't you introduce her to us?"

"Her appearance and legs, we can't stand it!"

“...”

There was a lot of lovey-dovey conversation going on inside.

"Damn it, shut up!" Jiang Yi kicked the man.

The man chuckled and winked at Ji Xiao. "Hey gorgeous, remember to give me your number later."

"Bang!"

Jiang Yi kicked him again.

"They're just blabbermouths. They don't dare to do anything."

Ji Xiao chose a seat close to the inside and sat down. Not long after, Jiang Yi squeezed over and handed her a bottle of wine.

"Do you want some?"

"I don't know how to drink."

It's true, she could drink a little when she was in college, but after two years, she didn't have any alcohol at all. Now she probably got drunk as soon as she drank.

"Do you think I brought you here just to let you sit here and watch?" Jiang Yi handed the wine to Ji Xiao. "Although it doesn't make sense, alcohol is indeed a good medicine for healing the heartbreak. That's what it's like to be in a breakup. You can just drink it and get out of the breakup."

"Besides, I'll carry you back when you're drunk. What are you afraid of?"

Breakup?

Ji Xiao lowered her head.

Could it be considered a breakup? For so many years, it was just one-sided love at most, wasn't it?

Gu Jin was like a thorn in her heart. Just thinking about him made her feel a tearing pain in her heart. They would be divorced tomorrow, and she would not be his wife tomorrow.

Tomorrow, she would not even have the right to love him.

Ji Xiao took the wine from Jiang Yi and poured it into her mouth. Caught off guard, the pungent liquid rushed down her throat, choking her to the point that she coughed non-stop, and tears welled up in her eyes.

"F*ck, my lady, do you know how strong this wine is? How dare you pour it into your mouth?" Jiang Yi quickly handed her lemon juice and stroked her back.

When she finally recovered, the burning sensation in her throat could not dissipate for a long time. Her tongue seemed to be numb, and the smell of alcohol rushed straight to her head. Everything in front of her gradually became a little unreal.

It was all lies. Didn't they say that alcohol could paralyze the nerves? Why did her heart hurt even more.

It hurt so much that she felt suffocated and burst into tears.

Ji Xiao tore at her collar uncomfortably, groped for a bottle of wine on the table, and was about to pour it into her mouth.

Fortunately, Jiang Yi was quick-witted. He grabbed the bottle of wine in her hand and tried to take it away, but Ji Xiao refused to let go.

"Give it to me, give it to me, Jiang Yi."

Jiang Yi was stunned. The woman's eyes were terrifyingly red, and her slightly red cheeks were covered with tears.

Her lively eyes were filled with sadness and despair.

He loosened his grip, picked up the glass, poured half a glass of wine from the bottle, and said in a low voice, "It's not that I don't want you to drink it, but it's too strong. You'll hurt your stomach if you drink it like that. Drink it slowly."

The wine was indeed strong. It was so spicy that her stomach was churning.

"I love him for about..." Ji Xiao held the wine glass and began counting with her fingers. "It's been so many years."

"I didn't ask him to love me. I just... burp... I want to be with him. Even if he doesn't love me, I'm satisfied to be his wife..."

“...”

The surroundings were very noisy, and the woman's voice was very soft. Jiang Yi couldn't hear her clearly, but she was curled up in the corner, so petite that it made him feel sorry for her.

His wide palm fell on her furry head.

"You are very good, and there will be better man to love you."

Ji Xiao had indeed underestimated her capacity for liquor. She had drunk more than half a bottle of strong liquor.

He should have stopped her just now.

Jiang Yi helplessly patted Ji Xiao on the back, who was vomiting in the bathroom. "I told you, drink less, finish vomiting, don't vomit in my car later."

Wiping her mouth, Ji Xiao staggered out of the bathroom. Jiang Yi followed closely behind her, afraid that she would fall.

As expected, Ji Xiao stumbled and fell into the arms of Jiang Yi.

"Gu... Gu Jin?"

Ji Xiao blinked and poked Jiang Yi in the face. Then, she burst out laughing. "Why are you here? Haha, let's drink together..."

Jiang Yi was speechless. "Look clearly, I'm not your unfaithful man, Gu Jin."

"Nonsense! Gu Jin isn't a heartless person!" Ji Xiao waved her arms reluctantly. "Gu Jin is the best!"

"My Gu Jin, is the best."

"Yes, yes, yes, he's the best. Don't move around. I'll send you home now."

Jiang Yi struggled to hold onto the restless Ji Xiao, he wrapped one arm around her waist and used the other to pass through the base of her thigh. He was about to lift her up when he was pulled away by a force and slammed into the wall.

Looking at Ji Xiao, he found that she had fallen steadily into someone else's arms.

"Gu Jin?"

Jiang Yi raised his head and met Gu Jin, whose expression was as cold as ice.

"Why are you here?"

As the CEO of Gu's Group, it was rumored that he hated people in such a chaotic place the most. It was unbelievable that he would appear alone in such a foul bar.

"Someone's plotting against my wife. I'm here to see what he's up to."

His ice-cold gaze fell on the hand of Jiang Yi, and his furious eyes seemed to want to cut him into pieces.

This pair of hands had just wrapped around her waist and even touched her legs!

"You're getting a divorce."

"We haven't divorced yet!" He roared and tightened his arms around the woman. "At least for now, I'm still her husband!"

Gu Jin looked intimidating. Jiang Yi shook his painful arm and said contemptuously, "Fine, you're right."

"But in the future, you can't stop others from getting close to her."
