Chapter 384: Murong Qiao’s Background
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Seeing Ruan Ying’s “pa.s.sion” towards Murong Qiao, An Nuo was not only jealous this time, but also planned to take the initiative to attack.
“The meat in this dish is very tender. You will definitely like it.” An Nuo took advantage of the opportunity.
She naturally understood Murong Qiao’s taste better than Ruan Ying. Moreover, the two of them lived together. No matter how she looked at it, she had a greater advantage.
Ruan Ying was not to be outdone. “This milk-flavored cheese is also fragrant. Qiaoqiao, try it—”
“How about singing after dinner?” An Nuo tried to change the topic.
Eating wasn’t important. Anyway, there were so many entertainment facilities nearby. She could find something fun to do with Murong Qiao.
It would be best if it was a two-person game. That way, Ruan Ying could only stand at the side and watch.
On the left was An Nuo, and on the right was Ruan Ying. The two of them had clearly not spoken much just now, but at this moment, they had a tacit understanding.
The faint smell of gunpowder filled the air. On the left was An Nuo, and on the right was Ruan Ying. Murong Qiao found it hard to accept the doubled “pa.s.sion”.
“Eat, eat…” Her reply was drowned out by the enthusiasm.
Just as An Nuo and Ruan Ying were grabbing Murong Qiao’s attention, Xian Yu suddenly appeared from behind and put his arm around his Little Sister’s shoulder.
“You guys chat first. Can I borrow Qiaoqiao for a while?” Xian Yu chuckled and raised his eyebrows.
Ruan Ying and An Nuo stopped what they were doing at the same time and looked at Xian Yu.
The enemy in front of them had yet to be dealt with, but another one suddenly appeared. It was really a headache.
However, Xian Yu was Murong Qiao’s brother, so the two of them couldn’t reject him. Moreover, Xian Yu was also a celebrity that An Nuo liked very much.
Murong Qiao heaved a sigh of relief. “Let’s go.”
Before Ruan Ying and An Nuo could answer, Murong Qiao quickly followed her Fifth Brother and slipped away.
As for Ruan Ying and An Nuo, they could only watch as Xian Yu took Murong Qiao away and left the two of them looking at each other. However, their hostility didn’t decrease at all.
“Heh.” An Nuo snorted softly, as if she was unconvinced. “Give me a gla.s.s of wine.”
Her gla.s.s was empty. She asked the waiter to fill it.
Seeing this, Ruan Ying also shouted, “I want a gla.s.s too!”
She couldn’t help but imitate An Nuo.
This sentence seemed to have started an invisible war. An Nuo acted out of character and drank the gla.s.s of wine before adding another.
Seeing this, Ruan Ying imitated her actions and said that she could drink more.
Hence, their focus shifted away from Murong Qiao and started to drink silently. They clearly didn’t speak, but they didn’t stop drinking. It was as if whoever drank more would win Murong Qiao over.
The drinking compet.i.tion had just started when Murong Qiao and Xian Yu went to the balcony outside the private room to take a breather and feel the night breeze on their faces. Their thoughts also became much clearer.
Xian Yu stood beside his Little Sister with a smile on his face and seemed to be in a good mood.
He had arrived earlier than Murong Qiao and only managed to escape after being pestered by a few people. That was why he only appeared at the end. “You’re so popular?” Xian Yu teased.
He pointed at Ruan Ying and An Nuo, who were drinking not far away. Murong Qiao followed his gaze and saw this scene, and she was caught between laughter and tears.
Murong Qiao felt that she was not very charming. “It will stop later.”
She was talking about An Nuo. As far as she knew, An Nuo was not a very good drinker. If she drank cup by cup according to the current momentum, the alcohol would quickly invade her brain.
“I haven’t congratulated Big Brother for winning the award yet. It’s very impressive.” Murong Qiao thought of something serious.
The award for Best Actor was the result of Xian Yu’s own hard work. Previously, in the production team of “Fearless”, not only Director Liu Cheng, but the other staff members also started to have a whole new level of respect for Xian Yu.
However, Xian Yu answered seriously, “Your contribution is greater than mine.”
This was what he thought, and it was also the truth.
“Me?” Murong Qiao didn’t react.
Xian Yu nodded heavily. “If the novel you wrote hadn’t been adapted into a script, how could I have become the male lead?”
Ever since “Fearless” was broadcasted, it had been publicly acknowledged to be extremely popular. Even now, almost a year has pa.s.sed, but it still firmly occupies the top few spots in many television dramas. It could be seen how much everyone liked it.
As the male lead, Xian Yu benefited the most.
“It’s mostly because you had added life to the main character.”
“The male character is already very hard to portray, but you’ve completely exceeded my expectations…” Murong Qiao was familiar with praising her Big Brother.
The moment she opened her mouth, she couldn’t stop. From his acting skills to matching the character’s image, to her original creation based on Xian Yu… With Xian Yu as the heart of the story, Murong Qiao’s words weren’t exaggerated.
At this moment, An Nuo and Ruan Ying were still drinking. They were so dizzy that they had completely forgotten their initial goal.
“Drink… drink!” Ruan Ying supported her chin with one hand and smiled until her eyes narrowed.
An Nuo answered vaguely, but there was a hint of confusion in her words. “Again, again. This is nothing.”
“I’ll have more too!” Qu Xi’s eyes sparkled as she refilled the wine.
Just now, when she saw the two of them drinking, she inexplicably joined them and drank until her face was red.
On the other side, Chi Hanjing also raised his gla.s.s. “Drink, drink, drink! I’m already on my eighteenth cup. Is that okay?”
The four of them drank another gla.s.s. An Nuo couldn’t resist the corrosion of alcohol and gradually leaned on the table. However, her posture was still considered proper’.
“Boohoo…” Ruan Ying was different. “Huo Xiuyuan, wait for your retribution!”
Perhaps it was because of the alcohol, she suddenly remembered that she had been deceived and became sad.
“Don’t be sad over such a man. A stinky man like him…” An Nuo leaned over and even comforted Ruan Ying.
Ruan Ying hugged An Nuo and cried. Qu Xi and Chi Hanjing happily drank a few gla.s.ses of wine.
The scene was chaotic.
When Murong Qiao came back, she saw Ruan Ying and An Nuo huddled together like little animals and talking vaguely. Their words were all incoherent, but they were smiling happily.
“I say, how much did you drink?” Murong Qiao smelled the strong fragrance of wine before she got close.
Seeing that it was almost eleven o’clock, everyone had to go home.
But An Nuo… Murong Qiao looked at her drunk and blushing face on the table. It was obvious that she had lost her ability to move. She suddenly felt that she might as well not have left just now.
“An Nuo, let’s go home.” She tried to wake An Nuo up.
Unfortunately, drunkards were deaf to the outside world. An Nuo didn’t move at all.
Murong Qiao sighed. “An Nuo, raise your hand… I’ll send you home.”
She forced the other party to get up and planned to carry her home herself. Her hands were not idle either as she called the Ruan family.
“Yes, Ruan Ying is with me. She might have to trouble you to pick her up as she’s drunk…”
However, when An Nuo moved, Ruan Ying, who was beside her, felt something. She opened her eyes in a daze and heard Murong Qiao’s words.
Ruan Ying almost slammed the table and stood up. “I’m not going home!”
‘You’re asking someone to send me back while An Nuo will be personally sent back by you. I won’t agree, I won’t…” Ruan Ying was unwilling.
After drinking, her emotions were magnified. When she saw Murong Qiao sending An Nuo home, she naturally let out an aggrieved cry.
She didn’t know that An Nuo lived with Murong Qiao and thought that Murong Qiao was biased.
An Nuo however, was completely drunk. There was no movement at this moment, but Ruan Ying was difficult to deal with.
Not only did she retort, but she even wrapped her arms around Murong Qiao’s neck under the influence of the alcohol, as if she was determined to stick to Murong Qiao and not leave her.
Murong Qiao felt that she had sighed too many times to count.
It was so difficult to deal with drunkards..
