Huayu 2021: Isn’t he in the technology field?

Chapter 160 A dashing, smiling beauty with possessiveness

At nine o'clock in the evening, the night was dark.

Inside the private room of Li Family Cuisine, the group from Chuandian Entertainment were all speechless with shock at Liu Qiangdong's words.

A few years ago, when internet capital first entered the market, the earning power of some top celebrities was indeed terrifying. Take "General and I" as an example to see how much the top celebrities earned back then.

But times have changed now.

Capital may have money, but it's not stupid. In the context of the film and television industry's downturn, powerful entertainment companies still have to rely on their partnerships with video platforms to survive. Even big IPs and outstanding roles require actors to lower their fees to secure them. Making money is not that easy.

Let alone small karami like them?

Then look at President Jiang. In just two months, he made 300 million yuan by hand-crafting a system in his spare time. In between, he also made a cameo appearance in a movie, attended the Baidu AI Conference, and even played the male lead!

Sure enough, they came to the entertainment industry just to have fun!
The group suddenly felt the unevenness of the world...

At this moment, Xu Lei, the head of JD Logistics, stood up unsteadily, holding a wine dispenser. The glass of the dispenser reflected his flushed face.

"President Jiang, you absolutely have to drink this! If we had your system during the 618 shopping festival, things would be so much easier. Don't even mention President Liu's displeasure; we're all kicking ourselves for it!"

As he spoke, he handed over the wine glass with a pained expression.

"Mr. Xu is right!"

"President Jiang, you have to drink this!"

……

The other JD.com executives joined in the commotion, and Liu Qiangdong watched the spectacle with a smile.

I wasn't angry, but I was a little depressed. Of course, the main purpose was to get people drunk.

Li Yitong glanced at Jiang Qing beside her, a hint of worry flashing in her eyes.

Looks like you don't have a very high alcohol tolerance.

Jiang Qing's face was flushed, and she looked completely dazed.

Just as he was about to get up, Li Yitong's eyes suddenly curved into crescent moons.

She tapped her fingertips lightly on the edge of the steamed grouper plate and looked at Xu Lei with a smile.

"Mr. Xu, this dish will freeze if we don't eat it soon."

Before anyone could react, she picked up the wine cup in front of Jiang Qing and downed it in one gulp, the sound of her swallowing crisp like crushing rock candy.

When the empty glass was turned upside down, a drop of wine slid down her chin and into her collarbone, making Jiang Qing's eyelids twitch.

Wow! A heroine among women!

Everyone in the private room was taken aback by her bold and forthright aura.

Liu Qiangdong was the first to come to his senses and led the applause, his face showing appreciation.

"Miss Li's straightforwardness is just like that of a girl from Shandong Province."

"Mr. Liu has a keen eye."

Li Yitong smiled and pulled out a tissue to press against her neck, her crescent-shaped eyes glistening with moisture under the light.

"I am from Jinan."

"No wonder, but Miss Li's appearance is more like that of a girl from the South."

Liu Qiangdong smacked his lips and sighed, and the others echoed his sentiments.

Amidst the chorus of praise, Jiang Qing reached for the wine bottle to fill her own glass, but Li Yitong tapped the back of her hand with the end of her chopsticks.

Those crescent-shaped eyes suddenly came closer.

"Did President Jiang just say he wanted to try Buddha Jumps Over the Wall?"

Before Jiang Qing could react, she turned and shouted towards the door.

"Waiter, could you please serve this gentleman a bowl of soup to help him sober up?"

As everyone laughed so hard they almost fell over, Jiang Qing noticed that Li Yitong's ear tips were turning red.

The heroine from just moments ago is now pressing the inside of a chilled plum juice cup against her burning cheeks.

"What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a female drunkard before?"

When Li Yitong turned her head, she met Jiang Qing's eyes, her eyes reddening as she looked at him.

"Um……"

Jiang Qing nodded seriously, then smiled as the other person's eyebrows furrowed in an instant.

"I've never seen such a beautiful female drunkard."

Li Yitong's expression froze for a moment, then she smiled brightly, her eyes sparkling like stars.

She was somewhat surprised; Jiang Qing wouldn't have acted like this before.

He seems to have... changed a bit.

After that, no amount of wine could reach Jiang Qing without passing Li Yitong.

When the clock struck ten, Chen Duo helped Jiang Qing, whose steps were unsteady, walk outside.

Li Yitong naturally took his other arm, her crescent-shaped eyes flickering in the neon lights outside the Li Family Restaurant.

A cool night breeze swept over Jiang Qing, who suddenly stopped.

"Where's my phone?"

"Here it is."

Li Yitong took out a black phone from her bag and waved it, her crescent-shaped eyes crinkling into two arches with laughter.

"You almost put it into Buddha Jumps Over the Wall soup just now."

"Thank you."

After the effects of the alcohol kicked in, Jiang Qing became somewhat sluggish.

Li Yitong smiled and shook her head gently, looking at his blank expression with a strange gaze.

As they approached the car and the driver opened the door, Liu Qiangdong suddenly grabbed Chen Duo.

"Xiao Chen, get in my car and we'll go."

Before he could respond, she shoved him into her car.

Just as Li Yitong was about to speak, Liu Qiangdong slammed the Rolls-Royce door shut.

Be careful on the road!

He smiled and waved to the two of them, and Jiang Qing, still holding her eyelids open, raised her hand and waved back a few times.

Li Yitong smiled and nodded at Liu Qiangdong. When she turned to look at her boss and Yang Chaoyue, she blushed when she saw Zhang Liang's encouraging gaze.

When she saw Yang Chaoyue's forced smile, she raised the corners of her lips and quietly straightened her back.

Don't be too ambitious, little girl.

This was the prey that my sister encountered first.

As the vehicle started, Li Yitong slowly withdrew her gaze.

In the carriage filled with the scent of sandalwood and alcohol, Li Yitong reached out to smooth the collar of Jiang Qing, who was feigning sleep.

When she looked up and saw the protrusion above, she instinctively moved closer to it.

The moment his fingertips touched the warm Adam's apple, those crescent-shaped eyes lit up in the dim light.

"Did Teacher Li take advantage of someone's vulnerability?"

Jiang Qing opened her eyelids a crack to look at her.

"No way."

She casually pulled on her seatbelt and buckled it, her crescent-shaped eyes blinking in the streetlights flashing past the window.

"President Jiang has such a poor alcohol tolerance, yet he still tries to show off?"

"You drank seven cups of Moutai."

"Do you believe I can drink the entire production team under the table at my wrap party?"

She rolled down the car window, and the night wind blew her high ponytail into a fluttering flag.

"Want me to teach you some tricks to sober up?"

Suddenly, as if remembering something, she turned her head sharply, her eyes sparkling.

Jiang Qing watched as she took out the cooling balm from her makeup bag, her crescent-shaped eyes narrowing mischievously.

"murder?"

He sensed something was wrong and instinctively leaned back.

"Old Fang from the film crew."

She applied some of the ointment to her temples, and her crescent-shaped eyes glistened with moisture from the stimulation.

"That's how I got through filming the winter swimming scenes back then."

Her fingertips, scented with mint, hovered in front of his eyes.

"Want to try?" "I... hiss..."

While waiting at a red light, the driver saw in the rearview mirror that the tech upstart whom the boss had repeatedly told him to treat with care was grimacing and covering his forehead, while the female celebrity next to him was taking pictures of his contorted face with her phone.

Li Yitong smiled so hard that tears welled up in her eyes.

"President Jiang's expression is meme-worthy!"

"deleted!"

"Take it yourself."

She stuffed her phone into the inside pocket of her suit jacket, her crescent-shaped eyes brimming with the glee of a successful prank.

Seeing Jiang Qing freeze instantly, the female celebrity laughed so hard she fell onto his shoulder.

"Are all tech people this innocent?"

"..."

Jiang Qing glanced at the driver in front of her and chose to remain silent.

If they weren't in the car, and if he weren't still a little dizzy, he would have shown this mischievous, smiling beauty another side of tech people.

Half an hour later, the car stopped on the side of the road next to the Bulgari Hotel.

When Jiang Qing got out of the car, he was mostly sober. He saw Li Yitong still supporting him with practiced ease and didn't say anything.

The frustration of being rejected by Dudu yesterday, coupled with the stimulation of alcohol, gave him a strange impulse today.

What's more, he was standing next to a female celebrity who had confessed her feelings to him long ago.

She is sweet and lovely, yet also bold and generous, and her crescent-shaped eyes subtly reveal a hint of sexiness when they move.

Sweet yet sophisticated!

How could anyone not be charmed by such an older sister?

As they approached the revolving door of the Bulgari Hotel, Jiang Qing suddenly grabbed Li Yitong's wrist.

She followed his gaze and saw several people in the lobby pacing back and forth with telephoto lenses.

"How to do?"

She turned and buried her face in his arms, asking in a muffled voice.

The two shared a silent understanding; even though she could have left immediately after being dropped off at the hotel, she was still thinking about how to get in.

Everything is unspoken.

Jiang Qing shook her head, took out her phone, and sent a message.

Five minutes later, the hotel manager came out pushing a luggage cart full of pillows and bedding, completely blocking the two of them.

Li Yitong looked up at him in surprise, and Jiang Qing smiled and raised an eyebrow at her.

She covered her mouth and giggled, thinking that it was indeed an interesting experience.

Crawling into the luggage car, Li Yitong peeked at Jiang Qing through the gap in the down comforter, her crescent-shaped eyes crinkling into two thin slits with laughter.

"Mr. Jiang is so skilled?"

Jiang Qing loosened his tie.

"You might not believe it, but this is my first time."

She immediately burst into laughter, her body trembling with ecstasy.

After passing through the hall, the two immediately emerged, and burst out laughing the moment they turned to look at each other.

The two of them belatedly realized that there were many methods available, yet they had chosen the most abstract one.

When the elevator mirror reflected their figures, Li Yitong suddenly tiptoed closer to Jiang Qing's ear, her warm breath, carrying the scent of citrus, tickling his heart.

"Do you think tomorrow's trending topic will be a tech tycoon having a late-night rendezvous with a female celebrity?"

"Is Teacher Li really looking forward to it?"

She smiled and took a half step back without answering, her crescent-shaped eyes sparkling like shattered diamonds.

"Where's the key card?"

Jiang Qing handed it to her casually.

When the door lock beeped, Jiang Qing pretended to stumble and grabbed the entryway cabinet for support.

Li Yitong's gesture of reaching for the light switch suddenly stopped. Outside the floor-to-ceiling window, the lights of the CCTV building were flowing like a silver river.

That's a really good location.

She looked away and helped Jiang Qing up again, leading him to sit down on the sofa in the living room.

"Can you take a bath by yourself?"

She took a bottle of mineral water from the minibar, her crescent-shaped eyes sweeping over the disheveled collar.

"Does Teacher Li need help?"

"It's a beautiful thought."

She unscrewed the bottle cap and placed it in his hand, her smiling eyes appearing especially gentle under the warm light.

There are hangover pills by the bedside, and a bathrobe is there.

Before she could finish speaking, Jiang Qing suddenly grabbed her wrist.

The moment their skin touched, her crescent-shaped eyes widened slightly, then quickly curved back into a composed arc.

"Is Mr. Jiang still drunk?"

"Lipstick."

He released his grip and pulled a Chanel velvet lipstick from the inside pocket of his suit.

"Teacher Li left something behind."

Li Yitong took the lipstick, her crescent-shaped eyes lingering for a moment on the scratches on the lipstick tube.

She suddenly twisted out half of the ointment, drew a crescent moon on a hotel notepad, and stuffed it into Jiang Qing's hand.

Consider it a token of gratitude.

As she turned around, her ponytail flew high, and her snow-white waist swayed so much that Jiang Qing squinted his eyes.

"Five, four, three..."

Li Yitong silently recited it in her heart.

"Tongtong."

The moment the voice rang out, she subtly curled her lips.

"how?"

Turning around, she revealed a pre-prepared expression of confusion.

"Does what you said to me last time still stand?"

Jiang Qing leaned back on the sofa, looking up at the graceful female celebrity in front of her.

"of course."

Li Yitong answered without hesitation.

"So Jiang Qing, are you going to give me an answer today?"

She moved closer step by step, her hands behind her back, her crescent-shaped eyes filled with anticipation.

"Ah."

Jiang Qing's answer made Li Yitong's eyes light up.

"I admit you impressed me last time, and you're even more captivating today, but..."

The joy on Li Yitong's face began to fade.

"I have someone else in my heart."

"Ah……"

She gave a cold laugh.

"So what you're trying to say is that you only like Ono?"

"It's not just Ono."

Li Yitong was stunned for a moment, staring blankly at Jiang Qing as she slowly got up.

"And Sister Meng, and... others."

She froze on the spot.

She only came to her senses when she felt a warm, large hand supporting her waist.

The moment she looked up and met his eyes, she saw...

So possessive!
