Chapter 798: Parting (2)

The window of the car was not closed. There was a man sitting in the driver’s seat. The moment he saw Si Huang, he opened the door and came out. He looked at Si Huang and then at Qin Fan. He asked Si Huang,” Where’s Fourth Master?”

Si Huang had come here to tell him about this.” Xia Qitong should have drunk too much. Go to booth number 8 to pick him up.”

Cheng Hong nodded and left.

After they left, Qin Fan pulled Si Huang to sit on the side seat. When he was helping her fasten her seatbelt, he saw Si Huang looking in the direction Cheng Hong had left. He said unhappily,” Do I need to see that he has returned safely before I can rest assured?”

Si Huang could hear the jealousy in his tone. He shook his head and said speechlessly: ” Your friend drank too much and you’re just going to leave him alone?”

Qin Fan fastened his seatbelt and started the car.” I don’t care.”

...

“Being taken advantage of?”

“That’s a profit.”

“You mean Guo Chengxiong?”

“Yes.”

Si Huang pouted.

Qin Fan drove the car out of the parking lot. He did not want Si Huang to misunderstand him. He explained,” They have all been trained in this area. Even if they drink to death, no one can take advantage of them.”

“Xia Qitong and the others are different.” Si Huang said.

Qin Fan clicked his tongue lightly.” Those two are true.” The remaining one was not a simple rich second-generation heir.

Si Huang knew Xia Qitong’s identity, and of course he knew that he must have received professional training and wouldn’t get into trouble so easily, so he didn’t refute Qin Fan’s words. However, even though he knew, this did not hinder his concern as a friend. Moreover, there were many times when even the most powerful people would let down their guard. Today, Xia Qitong was indeed a little drunk.

Si Huang did not speak. Qin Fan drove the car out for a while and asked her again,”Where else do you want to go?”

Si Huang opened his eyes.” You’re a little strange today.”

“What’s strange about it?” Qin Fan asked.

“I thought you were angry at Li Jiming, but in the end…”

“I’m not happy, but he’s your friend.” Qin Fan parked the car by the roadside and turned to look at Si Huang.

Si Huang’s eyes moved.” You’re still going crazy with me?”

“It’s better than you being crazy with someone else without me knowing.” Qin Fan said in a deep voice.

Si Huang narrowed his eyes and smiled.

“As long as you’re happy, I’m here.”

“It’s already 1 am, and you’re still urging me to go somewhere else to continue playing?”

“I’ll let you have your fill once.”

Si Huang leaned against the seat weakly.” That’s why I’m curious. Today isn’t a special day.”

“It’s a special day.” Qin Fan said.

“Hmm?” Si Huang cast a questioning gaze.

Qin Fan reached out and touched her hair. At this moment, Si Huang looked very harmless and gentle. Her rosy face and lazy eyes were charming.” You forgot that you have to join the army after the final exams. It will be very tough then. You really won’t have the chance to play anymore.”

Si Huang’s eyes widened.

She had really forgotten about this.

So this was the main point.

“Pfft.” Qin Fan was amused by her expression. He then laughed even more and rubbed her hair.

Si Huang still didn’t like this behavior and turned his head to avoid it.

“Where else do you want to go?” Qin Fan asked patiently after putting down his hand.

“Let’s go home.” Si Huang said unhappily.

“You’re not playing anymore?”

Si Huang wasn’t a playful person to begin with. He didn’t want to go anywhere in the middle of the night. Especially after drinking too much, he actually wanted to sleep a long time ago.

However, when Qin Fan mentioned enlistment, Si Huang’s sleepiness faded a little. She stared at the man who was smiling happily in solitude.” Go home and sleep.”

The word ‘sleep’ made Qin Fan’s heart skip a beat. He stared deeply at Phoenix Si and the curve of his lips deepened.” Okay.”

The car started again and drove even faster than before. It even ran a red light on an empty street.

On the other side, after Cheng Hong entered the venue after confirming his identity, he soon found Xia Qitong sitting alone in a booth drinking.

Cheng Hong couldn’t see anyone else around him. He approached Xia Qitong and called out in a low voice.” Master?”

Xia Qitong didn’t react. Her gaze was fixed on a certain spot, as if she was thinking and in a daze.

Cheng Hong waited for a few seconds. When he saw Xia Qitong put down the wine glass in her hand, he called out again.” Boss, Young Master Si asked me to pick you up.”

“Hmm?” Xia Qitong turned around.

Only then did Cheng Hong realize that Xia Qitong’s eyes were hazy, and he looked drunk.

This was the first time he saw Xia Qitong drunk, and he couldn’t help but be stunned.

“Where is he?”

Cheng Hong realized that he was asking about Si Huang and replied,”I left with Qin Fan first.”

“Yes.” Xia Qitong stood up, her body swaying slightly.

“BOSS!”Cheng Hong reached out to support him.

Xia Qitong avoided it and shook her head to indicate that it was not necessary. She stood in place and rubbed her temples alone.

Cheng Hong saw that he was frowning uncomfortably and couldn’t help but say,” Boss, you’re clearly not good at drinking…”

“I’m fine.” Xia Qitong put down her hand. Other than her face being more rosy than usual, there was nothing unusual about her expression.

Walking out of the venue and back into the car, Cheng Hong watched Xia Qitong’s face slowly turn pale from ruddy, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

He didn’t dare to delay and took out a box of medicine from his pocket for Xia Qitong.” Boss, there’s no water for now. Do you want to eat some first?”

Xia Qitong glanced at it but didn’t take it.

Cheng Hong tactfully put it away.

From the rearview mirror, he saw Xia Qitong open the storage compartment in the back seat, take out the MP4 with headphones plugged in, plug the headphones into his ears, and then close his eyes to rest.

Cheng Hong didn’t even need to look at the MP4 to know what songs were on it, because he was responsible for downloading all the songs. There were only a few songs, and they were all sung by one person.

Cheng Hong’s expression was complicated. He had a bad premonition in his heart, but he suppressed himself from thinking about it. He started the car silently and drove as smoothly as possible.

Not long after the car drove, the phone rang.

Xia Qitong, who looked like she had fallen asleep in the backseat, opened her eyes and took off her earpiece to answer the call.

“Hello,”

“Got it.”

“.. There’s nothing else here.”

“Yes, I’ll go personally.”

When the call was hung up, Cheng Hong saw that Xia Qitong seemed to have completely sobered up. He whispered,” Boss, are you going abroad again?”

“Yes.”

“Actually, it’s fine to rest for a while.”

Xia Qitong chuckled.

Cheng Hong thought he wouldn’t answer.

Who knew that after a while, he heard a low sigh that sounded like he was talking to himself.” I need a place to rest.”
