Last time? Mu Yan's pupils tightened slightly, and Zhou Lifen had the nerve to bring up last time.
If she hadn't escaped, she couldn't imagine the consequences.
Human nature is truly complex. Some people can be despicable with such self-righteousness.
Mu Yan suppressed the hatred in her heart and walked over.
She didn't touch the wine on the table, instead pouring a new glass from the bottle.
She raised her glass towards Zhou Lifen, "Since Sister Zhou put it that way, I dare not disobey. I must toast Sister Zhou, to thank you for taking care of me for so long."
Zhou Lifen squinted slightly, this little girl had become quite clever.
"Clearly this is a punishment drink for you, how could you toast me?" she laughed, "That's not fair."
Mu Yan tilted her head back and finished the glass.
Zhou Lifen looked at her slightly flushed face and said with a smile, "One glass isn't enough, it should be at least three glasses, don't you all agree?"
The people around immediately started heckling, "That's right, that's right, three glasses!"
Mu Yan smiled gently, "Since Sister Zhou said so, even if I can't drink, I have to, right?"
She boldly picked up the glass, consuming three glasses in a row, her pretty face becoming more and more flushed, and her body swayed unsteadily.
The crowd, seeing her state, began to believe that she really couldn't hold her liquor.
In this way, it was hard not to give people the impression that Zhou Lifen was bullying with power.
Zhou Lifen wanted to continue forcing drinks on Mu Yan, but seeing everyone suddenly fall silent, she knew that going too far would backfire.
She generously said to Mu Yan, "Alright, if you can't drink, I won't force you. Eat, drink, and play as you please, no need to be polite."
Mu Yan said with a smile that didn't reach her eyes, "Thank you, Sister Zhou."
Zhou Lifen didn't reply, turning instead to talk with Director Zhu and the others.
Perhaps it was the overly bright lights in the room, Mu Yan felt dizzier.
She shook her head slightly, left the private room, and headed straight to the restroom.
In the restroom, Mu Yan repeatedly washed her face with cold water, finally feeling a bit sober, no longer seeing double.
After washing her face with cold water again, she prepared to leave but saw Zhou Lifen coming in through the mirror.
She withdrew her gaze and walked straight out.
Zhou Lifen looked at Mu Yan and said sarcastically, "Is this how you treat your seniors?"
Mu Yan paused, her lips curling slightly, "I wouldn't dare have a senior as malicious as you, lest I ruin my entire life."
Zhou Lifen sneered, "I couldn't tell you were so capable, managing to escape and leaving Director Zhu empty-handed in such a situation."
Mu Yan's face darkened instantly, she said coldly, "Yes, sorry to disappoint you."
Zhou Lifen adjusted her hair in the mirror with an arrogant expression, "Why would I be? I'm just pitying you for losing the chance to cozy up to a wealthy man. However, if you regret it, I can arrange it again."
Mu Yan let out a derisive laugh, "Still trying to use me as a stepping stone for your success? You're truly shameless!"
Zhou Lifen's eyes narrowed, suppressing the anger in her heart, she said coldly, "Don't you want to treat your brother's illness? I'm the only one who can help you."
"Whether you're helping or harming me, you and I both know, stop introducing Director Zhu to others, I think you and he are a perfect match."
Mu Yan kept a cold face, brushed past Zhou Lifen, and out of the restroom.
"What did you say? Stop right there!" Zhou Lifen shouted, but Mu Yan completely ignored her.
This was a public place, she didn't dare to go too far.
She angrily walked to the sink, slamming her palm on the mirror with a "smack."
The face in the mirror was full of malice, the eyes even more vicious.
"Little bitch!" she cursed through gritted teeth.
She had asked Chen Fang to check the hotel surveillance, but was told that the footage from that night had been cut.
The hotel wouldn't say whose decision it was, convinced her even more that there was a secret in that deleted footage.
She would find out, and once she had something against Mu Yan, she refused to believe Mu Yan wouldn't succumb.
