After we broke up, a big boss in the Beijing circle kidnapped me to get my certificate.

Chapter 42 Drinking enough wine
Mr. Huo's secretary notified Lu Yao at short notice that the dinner would be held at Yipinxuan at [-]pm, one hour earlier than originally.

Lu Yao didn't have time to go home and change into clothes suitable for socializing, so she hurriedly took a taxi.

What a coincidence, we hit the evening rush hour after get off work.

The car was jammed on the road, and 10 minutes later it was still standing still.

She glanced at her watch, worried.

It has long been rumored in the industry that Mr. Huo hates others being late the most, and treats those who are late as "death penalty".

"Miss, if you are in a hurry, you can walk 100 meters forward and take the subway. This road will be congested for almost half an hour during the evening rush hour." The driver kindly reminded me.

Lu Yao looked at the endless red lights in front of her and had no choice but to get off the car and take the subway.

When she arrived at the lobby of Yipinxuan, it was already 55:5, only [-] minutes away from the agreed time.

At this time, the elevator was overcrowded, and even after waiting for a minute, no one could get in.

She chose to climb the stairs to the fifth floor. As soon as she arrived outside the door of Ruyi's box, she heard Melinda's harsh and flattering voice trying to please Mr. Huo.

Lu Yao tidied up her appearance, took a deep breath and pushed the door open.

As soon as Melinda saw Lu Yao come in, she immediately stood up and said with a smile: "Hey, isn't this the great beauty Lu? Why are you here now? Mr. Huo and I have been waiting for you for a long time."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the box looked at the clock on the wall.

Exactly, seven o'clock sharp.

"Mr. Huo, I'm sorry, I'm late." Lu Yao smiled apologetically.

Logically speaking, Xu Wenjie was supposed to accompany her to today's dinner, but Xu Wenjie wanted her to train herself well so that she could face big clients with ease after becoming a senior partner in the future.

When Mr. Huo saw Lu Yao's natural and exquisite facial features, he was stunned, with a joyful smile on his face.

Instead of scolding, he enthusiastically pointed to the empty seat next to him and said excitedly: "I have always heard that there is a super beautiful lawyer in Wenjie Law Firm. When I saw her today, she was as beautiful as a fairy. Come on, come on, don't stand still, Sit here."

Lu Yao quickly sat down, picked up the red wine glass, and said with a smile: "Mr. Huo, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting for so long. I'll punish myself with a drink."

After saying this, she drank half the glass of red wine in one gulp.

Melinda saw that Mr. Huo was interested in Lu Yao, so she secretly pulled down her underwear, revealing her perfect career line, and deliberately rubbed against Mr. Huo's body, and said softly: "Miss Lu, this punishment The wine is usually three glasses dry. If you only drink half a glass of red wine, it doesn’t look sincere at all.”

Mr. Huo is a good person, and Melinda and Lu Yao are competitors. He knows in his heart that Melinda is deliberately making things difficult for Lu Yao so that Lu Yao will retreat.

He thought to himself, if the wine was enough, Lu Yao wouldn't be allowed to sleep in his bed tonight?

He stared at Lu Yao with ambiguous eyes and raised a malicious smile at the corner of his mouth.

Lu Yao was in a dilemma, so she had no choice but to fill up the glass with liquor, smiled and toasted again: "Mr. Huo, I respect you."

Mr. Huo was also very considerate, clinking glasses with her and drinking down the wine in one gulp.

Lu Yao naturally didn't dare to slack off and drank three glasses of white wine in a row.

When the wine entered his throat, a burning sensation burned in his throat and reached his stomach. His ears instantly felt hot and his cheeks turned slightly red.

Mr. Huo saw her changes clearly, narrowed his eyes and smiled.

"Okay! I didn't expect Miss Lu to drink so well." Mr. Huo was very happy. He picked up the chopsticks and gave Lu Yao a piece of king crab leg. He put it in front of her and deliberately teased: "Girls can't drink too much." If you are anxious, you will get drunk easily. If you are drunk, you will get drunk easily..."
