Brian Si could only smile at these words.
“Luo Ming, can you accompany me to the bathroom?” It seems that it’s a little dark over there. I don’t dare go alone. Antonia pointed at Brian Si with a pitiful look, guessing that he would be with her.
“Okay.” Brian Si didn’t look in the direction she was pointing at, so he agreed without saying a word.
Antonia walked into the bathroom while Brian Si was outside.
“Ah…” Antonia’s scream came from the bathroom.
When Brian Si heard him, he immediately rushed in. A worried expression appeared on his face. He frowned and asked with concern, “What happened?”
Antonia’s face turned pale and her heart was still palpitating. She stuttered, “There was a mouse just now… I was scared.”
Thinking that something big had happened, Brian Si let out a sigh of relief when he found out about the situation. He returned to his usual expression and said coldly, “It’s just a mouse. It’s not worth making a big fuss.”
“I… I know, but I’ve been afraid of these since I was young.” Antonia’s voice was like a mosquito fly as she cried.
“Since it’s okay, let’s go. There might be a snake later.”
Brian Si took a step first, but Antonia still had some lingering fear in her heart. She quickly followed Brian Si and paid attention to her surroundings to see if any other animals she was afraid of had appeared.
Florence Li was left alone and she didn’t want to go there.
At this moment, a fat man with big ears came over to Florence Li with a glass of wine.
“Are you Florence Li?” Can you please have a glass of wine with me? The man’s eyes stared at Florence Li’s chest. Her clothes were like a V collar, revealing a faint white skin and a ditch.
“Sorry, I don’t know you, so there’s no need to drink.” Florence Li rejected her straightforwardly and the contempt in her eyes was not hidden. She noticed his eyes and scolded the wretched man in her heart.
The man coldly snorted, his eyes full of disdain for Florence Li, thinking that he did not know how to appreciate her.
“Aren’t you Brian Si’s lover?” Why are you pretending to be tall? Your face and figure are pretty good. I’ll give you three hundred thousand. How about sleeping with me for a night? The man revealed his true purpose and spoke without turning the Bush, directly insulting Florence Li.
As soon as she said this, Florence Li picked up the red wine on the table beside her and poured it on his face mercilessly. She angrily said, “You… are too much!”
The man did not expect Florence Li to do such a thing. He wiped the red wine on his face with one hand and raised the other. He was about to slap Florence Li’s face with a fierce look.
Florence Li closed her eyes and her eyelashes were still trembling. She was ready to get hit.
A powerful hand held the man’s hand and the man was about to curse. After seeing the other person’s face, he swallowed the words he wanted to say.
It was Brian Si, whose eyes were filled with anger. His slightly narrowed eyes looked dangerous to the man.
“Mr. Zhang, what happened? You want to hit her?”
When she heard Brian Si’s voice, Florence Li opened her eyes and saw Brian Si holding General Zhang’s hand.
“She was the one who poured me red wine first!” Mr. Zhang pointed at Florence Li and said fiercely.
Obviously, he didn’t want to tell Brian Si that he was speaking rudely.
The next second, Mr. Zhang asked, “Who are you to talk for her?”
Florence Li didn’t want to put Brian Si in a difficult position. She reacted quickly and took the lead, “I’m his friend.”
He was obviously trying to embarrass Brian Si. He was a big shot in the business world and a business rival of Brian Si. How could he not take this opportunity to embarrass him?
Just then, Austin Zhou came over and saw what happened just now. He came over and hugged Florence Li’s waist. He said to Mr. Zhang, “I’m her boyfriend.”
Brian Si’s face darkened when he heard this. He felt relieved when he thought that Austin Zhou was also helping Florence Li.
“I just saw Mr. Zhang talking to my girlfriend first, and then she was angry at you with red wine. You must’ve said something that annoyed her that she did that, right?” Austin Zhou squinted and asked.
“This…” Mr. Zhang felt guilty. Because Austin Zhou was right, he paused for a long time without saying anything.
Florence Li wasn’t afraid of provoking Mr. Zhang, so she wasn’t someone easy to bully. She said with certainty, “That’s true. It was Mr. Zhang who insulted me that I did.”
Austin Zhou knew that Mr. Zhang and Mr. Zhang were fighting for a piece of land and mentioned his weakness. Mr. Zhang knew that he was in trouble and retreated.
Just as Mr. Zhang was about to leave, Austin Zhou felt that there was still a need to apologize to him, so he said sincerely, “My girlfriend splashed your red wine just now. Since she was brought by me, I have to apologize to you. Sorry, I hope you won’t take this matter to heart.”
Mr. Zhang didn’t dare to take it seriously. He knew that he was the result of his own death, so he could only slip away. Before he left, he respectfully said, “I have something wrong with me, so I won’t take it to heart. I still have something to do, so I’ll leave first. I’ll meet again another day.”
Seeing Mr. Zhang disappear from the banquet, Florence Li let out a sigh of relief. She was very grateful that Brian Si had stopped her.
If not for him, her face would have been swollen. She was grateful to Austin Zhou for saving herself.
But the bitterness in her heart couldn’t be erased.
“Thank you.” Florence Li smiled. “If it wasn’t for you, I would have been unable to escape.” She thanked Brian Si earnestly, but she was sarcastic to Brian Si.
“What did Mr. Zhang say to you?” Brian Si looked at Florence Li, frowned and asked seriously.
Florence Li didn’t dare to look at him anymore, so she could only look elsewhere. She was embarrassed to say it and lowered her head like a child who had made a mistake. She said in a low voice, “He offered me a high price to sleep with me and said that I’m a lover.”
When Antonia heard this, her lips curved into an imperceptible sneer. Isn’t she a lover?
Brian Si rubbed his brows and said helplessly, “Okay, I got it.”
In the end, it was his fault. He owed Florence Li too much, so he couldn’t make up for it.
However, he insisted on taking such an extreme route to keep her by his side.
Austin Zhou didn’t want Florence Li to stay here anymore. He had heard the rumors and was afraid that more would happen next. He just wanted to protect Florence Li and not let her be hurt, so he wanted to take her away.
“Follow me.” Austin Zhou regarded Brian Si as transparent, his eyes full of affection for Florence Li, and only belonged to her.
