Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Even so, Qin Hao didn’t let Yu Ge off. Whenever he had the time, he would approach her. Fortunately, Mo Jue kept getting in the way.

As a result, the three of them, Mo Jue, Qin Hao, and Yu Qian, could be seen talking and laughing, but in reality, death glares were flying everywhere. As for Yu Ge, she had the short end of the stick having to drink and converse with others.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, Yu Ge sneaked into the bathroom. This welcoming banquet was too suffocating. In addition, although Yu Ge had been in the entertainment circle for so many years, she was still unable to adapt to some of the rules of the entertainment circle.

Although Yu Ge had participated in a few large family gatherings since she was young, there was still a big difference between a dinner party in the entertainment circle and a family gathering. At the very least, in a large family, everyone cared about their family’s reputation. What wouldn’t be said openly? However, in a dinner party in the entertainment industry, there was no need to have any scruples. Everyone’s true colors were revealed in private, at the dinner table, it was clear at a glance. All these fake personalities made Yu Ge feel suffocated.

However, what surprised Yu Ge the most today was that Mo Jue was actually here. They didn’t say much today. In addition to the director’s attitude towards Mo Jue, Yu Ge really couldn’t decide whether he was here for the business investment or… for her?

That day, Mo Jue very seriously told Yu Ge that he wanted to pursue her. It was Yu Ge who suggested it herself, but this was only a delaying tactic. Deep down, she didn’t take this matter seriously at all. After all, as the CEO of the Mo Company, Mo Jue had many things to attend to every day. How could he have the time to pursue a small celebrity!

As time passed, she had originally forgotten about this matter until today when she met Mo Jue again on the set.

Yu Ge’s alcohol tolerance was low, so she was already extremely dizzy. She thought about life for a while in the bathroom. Although she was still very dizzy, she had sobered up a little. She touched up her makeup and prepared to go back.

However, she didn’t expect to meet Qin Hao the moment she went out.

Yu Ge couldn’t help but think what type of stalker Qin Hao was. Why was he still following her around? He had blocked her several times a day.

Yu Ge was very dizzy now and did not know what to do. Qin Hao took the gamble and followed her to the bathroom, so there was no way for her to call for help. The moment her phone was knocked down, Yu Ge had a feeling that she was going to die. It was her fault for not being careful enough to be alone in such a place.

When Mo Jue finished making the call and came out, he saw that Yu Ge’s phone had been knocked down to the ground by Qin Hao, and she was swaying as she fell into Qin Hao’s arms.

Mo Jue had been paying attention to Yu Ge from the start. The moment she came out of the private room, Mo Jue followed her out. However, he couldn’t just wait outside the women’s washroom. When he returned the call from the washroom, that was the first thing he saw when he came back.

Mo Jue strode forward, picked up her phone, and rescued Yu Ge from Qin Hao’s hands. He said to Qin Hao, “Young Master Qin, you have a girlfriend. It’s better to not mess with other girls.”

When Mo Jue brought Yu Ge to the parking lot, Yu Ge was so drunk that she couldn’t even stand properly. She could only walk after being half-carried by Mo Jue. She even muttered to him as they walked, “Give me a mask. Don’t let the reporters take pictures of me.”

“Being an idol must be burdensome.” Mo Jue accepted his fate and put on the mask for Yu Ge. However, when they reached the car, Yu Ge was the first to throw the mask away.

“How can you still drink this much with your low alcohol tolerance?” Mo Jue mocked Yu Ge mercilessly.

Yu Ge couldn’t hear what he said at all. She muttered, “Ask Xiao Tao to apply a leave for me.” Then, her head tilted and she lost consciousness.

When Yu Ge woke up the next day, the last thing that came to her mind was her phone that had been knocked out. She narrowed her eyes and fumbled around.

When she touched it and realized that it did not feel right, she opened her eyes and was dumbfounded.

Why was her grip on Mo Jue who was asleep? Yu Ge was stunned by her shameless actions and shook her head. When she fully woke up, she prepared to sneakily leave.
