Chapter 253 Game of Kings
Chun Rixi understood that it was Zhu Anqing's doing. Lu Junze had no intention of letting her attend the dinner tonight.
Those who came to the dinner included several leaders from the marketing department of Chunrixi Company and several backbones of Jiangran Company. During the meal, they talked about the domestic and international economic situation, and the atmosphere in the whole box was very high.
Jiang Ran picked up his wine glass and happily suggested that everyone raise their glasses together. Everyone stood up and raised the glasses in front of them.
Chun Rixi had no choice but to stand up and picked up the juice cup beside her, but her hand was held by Jiang Ran.
Lu Junze immediately turned his sharp eyes towards her, full of warning and ridicule.
Jiang Ran took the juice cup from her hand, placed it gently on the table, then placed the wine glass he had used in her hand and spoke gently.
"Ms. Chun, you should have a drink with everyone else on this occasion. Drinking juice is a bit disrespectful to me!"
He then picked up another glass of wine poured by the waiter, lowered the mouth of the glass intentionally, gently clinked it with her glass, said cheers, and then picked up the glass and drank it all.
The others also drank it all in one gulp, then sat down and continued chatting and eating.
But Chun Rixi had never drunk white wine, and she seemed to be in a dilemma at the moment. The wine glass in her hand was taken away by a hand with a silver cuff.
Lu Junze had walked to her side without her knowing when, raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"My assistant is allergic to alcohol, so please don't make things difficult for her, Mr. Jiang!"
Jiang Ran suddenly grabbed Chun Rixi's hand and covered it in his own palm, saying apologetically.
"Oh, blame me! I was so excited when I saw Miss Chun that I didn't think things through!"
Lu Junze grabbed Chun Rixi's shoulders, lifted her up, and spoke in a cold tone.
"Sit next to me, you sit next to CEO Jiang. I'm afraid you'll be fooled by him and reveal the company's secrets!"
Everyone immediately laughed happily and praised Lu Junze's humor.
Chun Rixi, who was sitting next to Lu Junze, would step forward and block all the wine for her whenever they needed to clink glasses and drink.
The embarrassment on Zhu Anqing's face gradually turned into jealousy in her heart. She couldn't turn a blind eye to Lu Junze's behavior, but when she thought that they were already engaged, she had to persuade herself to be magnanimous.
After the dinner, Lu Junze was obviously a little drunk, but Jiang Ran was still not satisfied and dragged him to the bar to continue drinking.
"You guys go ahead. I'm not feeling well. I'll go back first."
Chun Rixi immediately planned to go to the roadside to hail a taxi, but Lu Junze came up to her, held her wrist, and refused to let her go or say a word.
"Sister Xiaoxi, you're the only one among us who didn't drink a drop of alcohol. Brother Junze helped you block so much alcohol, and you just walked away like this?"
Chun Rixi jumped into the driving seat helplessly and asked Zhu Anqing and the others to get in the car.
The department managers and Jiang Ran's people also got into a car and followed.
The car stopped in front of the Chuyu Bar. Lu Junze immediately gave a stern order when he saw the neon sign.
"Go to another bar! Not here!"
After saying that, he reached out to grab the steering wheel. Chun Rixi hurriedly pushed him back to the passenger seat and drove the car away from the First Encounter Bar with some perfunctory words.
In the bar box, Lu Junze lay on the comfortable and soft sofa with his legs wide open and his eyes closed.
Jiang Ran suggested playing the King Game, and with the consent of Zhu Anqing and other colleagues, Chun Rixi had to join the game.
Not sure if it was bad luck or someone did it on purpose, but Jiang Ran drew the King in the first round.
He glanced at everyone present, and then his burning gaze fell on Chun Rixi's cheek.
He placed the beer in front of Chun Rixi and said with a smile.
"Haruhi, lick the bottle!"
Everyone immediately started making ambiguous and teasing noises. Chun Rixi foolishly wanted to go forward, but Lu Junze's hand held her head down and forced her back.
He angrily cursed "fool", then turned his head and spoke in a sinister tone without hiding the anger on his face.
"Jiang Ran, this joke is too much!"
Jiang Ran showed a sly smile on his face, immediately picked up the bottle of wine, and said in an apologetic tone.
"Oh, I'm so sorry! I didn't realize she was new to society! I'll drink a glass of wine as punishment!"
After saying that, he drank most of the beer in the bottle, immediately picked up the sign box, and asked everyone to continue.
Jiang Ran seemed to be lucky, as he was still the king the second time, and he didn't intend to let Chun Rixi go.
"Haruhi, look at me for 11 seconds."
Chun Rixi thought this was such a simple request, so she moved to Jiang Ran's side, sat down and looked at him.
Jiang Ran's face moved closer, his nose tip almost touching Chun Rixi's nose tip, and his breath almost hit her face.
Kasuga Xi could see her own shadow in his black pupils, which made her instinctively step back and keep a safe social distance.
The people in the box seemed to do it on purpose. When the countdown reached 1, they all laughed and repeated 1 instead of continuing to count to 0.
Jiang Ran made up his mind and just as he was about to raise his hand to hug and kiss her, she was grabbed by the collar and dragged to the other end of the sofa by Lu Junze.
"Haruhi, you are so stupid! 10 seconds have passed long ago. What are you waiting for?"
The others burst into laughter, and Chun Rixi blushed with embarrassment. Fortunately, the lights in the box were dim, so no one could see her embarrassed expression and blushing cheeks.
Later, other people drew the king's lot, and the strange instructions made everyone laugh.
However, this time, Lu Junze drew the king's lot, and everyone was waiting for him to give orders. He seemed to be still drunk and pointed at his waist and spoke to Chun Rixi.
"Haruhi, come up!"
Everyone burst into laughter and looked at the embarrassed Chun Rixi, waiting for her reaction.
She picked up the juice cup on the coffee table and said awkwardly that she would drink a glass as a punishment.
"Miss Juice, you've been drinking juice all night, you can't admit your punishment this time! Come up!"
Zhu Anqing immediately stepped forward, held Lu Junze's arm, and persuaded him gently.
"Brother Junze, you've had too much to drink. How about we just stop here today and call it a day!"
Lu Junze pushed her away impatiently, still pointing at Chun Rixi and giving her orders.
"Come up quickly, everyone is waiting, don't spoil the fun!"
Chun Rixi was a little annoyed. She walked up to Lu Junze with a cold face, looked at him with drunken eyes and a smile on his lips, raised her legs and pressed hard on his waist and abdomen.
Lu Junze cried out in pain, then raised his hands and clasped her waist, speaking in a low voice through gritted teeth.
"I'm giving you a piece of advice. In future games like this, people with brains like yours will be taken advantage of by others!"
Chun Rixi suddenly leaned over and whispered in his ear. This sudden intimacy made Lu Junze's breathing stagnate, and then became rapid.
"I don't want to play this kind of boring game either, so, can you please not let me attend this kind of social events in the future?"
She stood up and pulled the hem of her skirt, then sat aside and looked at her phone as if nothing had happened. She felt that her rapid heartbeat had been heard by the people around her.
