“Miss Song, come with me,” Lu Xun said, ignoring Producer Ye who was looking at him in anger. Once he got a clear look on her face, Lu Xun tugged at her hand, pulling the girl closely to his side.

Seeing that the person in his embrace was pulled away, Producer Ye’s face turned red with anger. He raised his hand and started to point at Lu Xun’s face. “Who are you? What are you doing? Do you know who I am?” Producer Ye retracted his finger the moment he saw Lu Xun’s cold face.

Lu Xun glanced at his assistant before he pulled the girl away.

Producer Ye took a step, wanting to grab the woman back, however, someone else had blocked his path.

Special Assistant Bei Yuan flashed his businesslike smile and handed over his business card. “Mister please wait here. We have evidence on tape that you are trying to take advantage of a drunk lady. We have already called the police. I hope that you can cooperate with us.”

The producer was about to say something until he saw the name on the card. The NEXT Group?

…

Song Xing Xing realized that someone was pulling her hand away the moment she had almost walked out of the restaurant. Suddenly, she was a little puzzled at what was going on.

She did not have the chance to say a word and continued to be dragged away out of the restaurant. When they finally stopped, her body turned and Song Xing Xing was surprised when she saw her boss’s familiar face.

The words she wanted to say were stuck in her throat. Her mind went blank and suddenly she did not know what she should do.

Why was this man here? Why did she keep running into this person?

“Miss Song, why are you here?” Lu Xun asked. “Why are you with that person?”

Song Xing Xing pushed her hair away from her face and blinked. She was too shocked to meet her boss at such a place that she failed to hear his question. “President Lu?”

Lu Xun narrowed his eyes and scanned her face. He let go of his grip on her arms and took a step back. “You’re not drunk.”

“Huh? Of course, I am not drunk.” Song Xing Xing thought about her situation a while ago and realized what had happened. “President Lu, did you come to help me? Wait. Why are you here as well?”

“I had an appointment with someone. My assistant saw you and thought that you were in a dangerous situation.” Since they knew each other and she was a sister to someone he knew, Lu Xun could not sit back and pretend that he did not see anything. Moreover, he had a sister. If his sister ran into a troublesome situation like this, Lu Xun hoped that someone would step up to help her as well.

Song Xing Xing rearranged her hair and her dress. She knew very well that she looked like a mess at this moment.

Lu Xun heaved a long sigh. He did not know what had happened with this girl. It was better to leave this place before someone else saw them.”Let me just take you home. It’s dangerous for you to walk around alone at this time.”

Song Xing Xing considered for a while and quickly agreed.

The moment she slid into the car, Song Xing Xing took a deep breath and covered her face with both hands. Everything that happened inside the restaurant replayed in her mind. Her heart was heavy as she thought about what Bai Zhi had done.

After she had drunk a few glasses, Song Xing Xing saw that Bai Zhi had whispered a few words to Producer Ye before she took her to leave. She was her friend, but Bai Zhi had not said a word before she left. It was as if she was handing her over to Producer Ye.

That disgusting man did not take too long to try to get close to her. He tried to touch her a few times and she had rejected him. Song Xing Xing did not expect that the person would follow her until the restroom.

The vehicle stopped at the red lights and Lu Xun turned to look at the person beside him again.

“Why are you pretending to be drunk?”

Song Xing Xing removed her hand from her face and took a deep breath. “I was pretending so that I can escape that man. Otherwise, I would not be allowed to leave that room at all.” Her voice grew smaller when she sensed her boss’s anger.

Lu Xun grew angry at her reason. “Why are you attending such a gathering in the first place? Do you know how dangerous it would be? What are you going to do if you could not escape?”

She was suddenly lectured by her boss and Song Xing Xing turned speechless.

“I came here because a friend invited me over.”

“Then, where is that friend of yours? Why did your friend leave you with such a person?”

Song Xing Xing bit at her lips and lowered her head. She too would like to know the answer to those questions.

“Actually, it’s not that easy to make me drunk,” she spoke. “My alcohol tolerance was quite high.”

Because of her family’s status, her parents were worried that she might be schemed against. After she had passed the legal drinking age, her family has been teaching her to drink and a few tricks to avoid such situations.

It was just that… Song Xing Xing was not expecting that her friend would want to pull such disgusting tricks on her. Not only that Bai Zhi had let her entertain that producer. She did not even care if that producer took her home and did something unspeakable. The way Bai Zhi had acted made her feel as if she was sold by her good friend to a disgusting man.

She was alone and did not know anyone in that room. Song Xing Xing was worried about her safety if she does something. Then, she pretended that she was drunk so that the man would lower his guard against her. She could guess that the producer’s next step was to bring her away from the restaurant.

It was better to isolate that producer from the others and take him somewhere there were a lot of people around before she could deal with him. Anyway, without the production crew around, it would not be easy for Producer Ye to do anything to her.

However, before she could do anything, someone else has come over and rescued her.

Song Xing Xing looked out the window and saw the scene outside. “Stop the car here.” Seeing that he did not stop, Song Xing Xing spoke again, “President Lu, I would like to go out of here.”

Lu Xun found a suitable place to stop and pulled over his car. He watched the girl alighted the car and realized that they were stopping at the lake park.. Worried that something similar would happen again, Lu Xun decided to come out and look after that person for a while.
