Chapter 1818: Chapter 1818: It Would Be Embarrassing If Word Got Out
“They’ve already left, Miss Ye, no need to rush to find them.” Yu Xiuzhun walked leisurely to Ye Mingi, speaking playfully.
“What did you say?” Ye Mingi did not expect Yu Xiuzhun to stop her, and took a step back in surprise, looking up at him.
“When I just arrived, Dan Hanjie had already left with Qin Youxuan. Where they are relaxing now, I have no idea.” Yu Xiuzhun crossed his arms, raising an eyebrow mischievously.
“…”
Ye Mingi was montarily at a loss for words, unsure how to respond.
“Since Mr. Jin and Miss Ye are free now, why not join in the fun? I haven’t attended such a party in ages and almost forgot how to play. It’s rare to et acquaintances.”
Yang ilan chid in, trying to coax as well.
“What, is Mr. Jin afraid?” Yu Xiuzhun’s cold gaze shot towards Jin Chenye.
His words were full of provocation.
“There’s nothing to fear. Since Mr. Yu is so interested, it would be rude to refuse.” Jin Chenye adjusted his tie, his gentle eyes flashing with a dark light.
He turned to Ye Mingi, “You’re my companion today, just follow without worry.”
“…”
Ye Mingi’s face stiffened montarily, but she obediently nodded.
Don’t lose face even if you lose ground.
Yu Xiuzhun was intentionally stirring up trouble; she could see that.
If Jin Chenye kept backing down, it’d be laughable if word got out.
“Good, since everyone has decided to play, let’s not waste any ti.” Yu Xiuzhun turned and walked briskly towards the poker table area.
His steps were hurried, carrying a hint of anger.
“Mr. Yu…”
Yang ilan was stunned, quickly lifting her skirt to chase after him.
At the poker table area, many wealthy young heirs were already playing poker.
The Dan Family’s dinner party invited many celebrities, so those who ca here were people with status and wealth.
Everyone said they were playing around, but the chips on the table could easily be more than what an ordinary person earns in a lifeti.
“Mr. Yu, you ca too. Want to join us?” Soone noticed Yu Xiuzhun’s arrival, imdiately stood up from their seat, and asked respectfully.
Besides Dan Hanjie, among the new generation leaders in the Chinese Business Circle, Yu Xiuzhun was the most capable and respected.
Whether to appease the Yu Family or for other reasons, anyone who t Yu Xiuzhun had to respectfully call him Mr. Yu.
This kind of scene was not unfamiliar to Ye Mingi at all.
Before Ye Zhanxing passed away, she was the only heiress of the Ye Family, always surrounded by flattery and complints wherever she went.
Yu Xiuzhun glanced around, finally walking to the table closest to the pool.
Jin Chenye held Ye Mingi’s hand, moving forward unhurriedly.
The last to arrive, unexpectedly, was the overlooked Yang ilan by Yu Xiuzhun.
Watching the strangely tense atmosphere among them, she only belatedly realized she had overlooked sothing important.
“Sit down. What would you like to drink? I’ll get it for you.” Jin Chenye considerately pulled a chair out for Ye Mingi and asked in a low voice.
“…I’m not really thirsty.” Ye Mingi pursed her lips nervously.
“Then how about a cocktail?” Jin Chenye’s gentle eyes twinkled, as he adjusted his suit jacket and looked at Yu Xiuzhun, “Would Mr. Yu mind waiting for two minutes?”
“No need for such trouble, Mr. Jin doesn’t need to make a special trip. Just have a waiter bring it over.” With those words, Yu Xiuzhun snapped his fingers, and a waiter imdiately noticed and ca over.
