Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 172: Chapter 172 Meal Gathering_1

Translator: 549690339

The place where the boss treated them to a meal was a very famous hotel in A City.

Jian Yufei had been to this place before. After marrying Ruan Tianling, she rarely had contact with his social circle, but every time they went out to eat, they always went to high-end places.

At the dinner table, several men chatted merrily, constantly clinking glasses. Jian Yufei maintained a foolish smile, feeling like a third wheel.

“How old are you this year, little sister?” An assistant mayor sitting next to her, whose face was flushed from drinking, asked her with a smiling face.

“Twenty-one,” Jian Yufei responded with a smile, her smile was polite, carrying an aura of wealth and refinement.

Having lived with the Ruan Family for over a year, she had unknowingly started to change.

Despite her lack of worldly experiences, she was no longer the naive and gawky girl she used to be.

Used to all kinds of social exchanges at the Ruan Family, she felt no pressure at all at this small dinner gathering.

Besides, having lived one life more than others, she had come to see many things in a new light. The current Jian Yufei was markedly different from her previous self.

It was like the difference between a naive teenage girl and a mature woman in her thirties.

Jian Yufei’s appearance was attractive without a doubt, her lips were red and her teeth white, her skin was smooth and fair. Her beauty invoked two feelings – softness and attractiveness.

Men usually prefer women who appear soft, but are mature and elegant deep inside.

Jian Yufei possessed both these traits. Her smiling face was like a blooming peony, dignified and beautiful, with a hint of seductive charm.

The men present stared at her, their mouths dry and faces flushed, whether it was due to the alcohol, nobody knew.

The assistant mayor’s already muddled gaze seemed to heat up a few degrees. He couldn’t take his eyes off Jian Yufei, and poured her a drink himself: “Little sister, work is not easy. Let me toast to you. If you have any difficulties in the future, come find me, don’t hesitate.”

A full cup of beer may not knock someone out, but it can certainly get one drunk.

Especially for someone like her who couldn’t handle liquor.

Jian Yufei showed a troubled expression, and the boss next to her encouraged her with a smile, “Xiaojian, you can’t refuse a toast from the assistant mayor. A cup of wine won’t get you drunk. Just drink with him.”

Before coming, the boss had told her that she must not offend any of the guests today. The company was just starting out and needed these people’s support. If they left happy, he would give her a raise.

Of course, if she happened to offend anyone, it would mean that she had to pack up and leave.

The assistant mayor held a significant amount of power in the city’s commercial bureau. If he was the one proposing the toast, she couldn’t refuse.

Jian Yufei hesitated for a moment before lifting her cup and drank with him.

She didn’t like alcohol, not even beer. As the unpleasant-tasting beer flowed down her throat, her stomach churned in revolt, and her face turned a charming shade of pink instantly, making her look even more attractive.

“Let’s have another!” The assistant mayor poured her another glass, causing Jian Yufei to shake her head and wave her hands: “No, I can’t drink any more.”

“This is the last one, and you have to drink it, no excuses!” The assistant mayor declared in a tone that suggested the refusal would be an offense. Jian Yufei thought, since it was the last one, she could drink it and not have to drink any more after that.

She lifted her glass and tilted her head back to drink. But she was drinking so fast, that halfway through the drink, her small stomach could not contain all the beer, and she almost threw up.
