　　Hearing Gong Siming's voice of questioning, Si Wan feels ridiculous: from what position is he questioning her?

　　"It's none of your business. Just take care of your own little lover!"

　　After her words, Si Wan goes off by herself, leaving Gong Siming gnas.h.i.+ng his teeth in anger.

　　Manager Zhang, the head of the Repluse Bay joint project which is under negotiating, is about forty years old but has a bald head already, just like the "Mediterranean Sea".

　　In the business circle, everyone knows that Zhang loves beauty. When seeing Si Wan who is very pretty, Manager Zhang immediately shows his welcome, "Director Si, nice to meet you." In the meanwhile, his fat hands are touching Si Wan's small ones.

　　Si Wan smiles with her composure maintained and then she pulls her hand back by pulling out the chair. "Manager Zhang, glad to meet you."

　　During the talk, a person of good sense offers his seat which is near Manager Zhang to Si Wan. Manager Zhang has been gallantly urging Si Wan to drink: "Director Si is really young and promising, for a joint project as big as Repluse Bay, you can still deal with ease. I admire you very much."

　　While talking, he approaches Si Wan slowly, with his stubby arm putting around Si Wan's shoulder, he proposes: "For our cooperation in future, tonight let's drink to heart's content."

　　Everyone on the table knows that although Si Wan is the young hostess of the Gong Family, Gong Siming hates her a lot, so she is in name only.

　　Xiaoyu tries to mediate at once, "Manager Zhang, Director Si doesn't handle alcohol anymore and she has already drunk …"

　　"What?" Hearing this, Manager Zhang's smiling face changes at once: "Just a few gla.s.ses of liquor, Director Si still wants to reject? It seems that the sincerity for cooperation of Gongs.h.i.+ Group is not that enough!"

　　Cooperation is more important!

　　Reaching a hand on Xiaoyu's leg to steady herself, Si Wan gives Xiaoyu a conciliatory pat; with a smile on her face, she then lifts her gla.s.s and empties it at one draught: "Manager Zhang, I pardon your forgiveness. It's my pleasure to drink with you."

　　One gla.s.s after another, being possessed by s.e.xual desire, Manager Zhang deliberately piles Si Wan with liquor, and Si Wan has no other choice but to drink continuously.

　　Xiaoyu is so anxious, but dare not disturb the situation. Her eyes set on Gong Siming who is not far away and is whispering with Han Jingjing in his arm.

　　Humph!

　　Although Gong Siming is here, definitely he will not help Director Si.

　　Xiaoyu rises quietly and hopes to find Liu Qing to come for help.

　　Han Jingjing and Gong Siming are indeed whispering. Han Jingjing is lying right near Gong Siming's ears, laughing in a soft tone, "Boss Gong, look, Director Si is piled with drink now; she looks so lonely and pitiful."

　　Gong Siming glances at the "Mediterranean Sea", who puts his hand on Si Wan' s shoulder; he is so adulatory that his whole body seems stuck to the woman.

　　Gong Siming kneads the slim waist of Han Jingjing with his fingers, showing no intention to help Si Wan. He continues to flirt with the woman in his arm and says disdainfully: "Let her alone."
