CHAPTER 348: CHAPTER 348: WHAT BACK DOOR? IT’S JUST OUR OWN DOOR (8)
Sheng Jianan hung up the phone and returned to the card table. His face, which had been slightly eased by the call, turned sullen again. Zhou Chengze could roughly guess what was going on as he looked at him, and a trace of bitterness flashed in his heart. The usually playful Chengze decided not to say anything.
It was Xu Muyi who spoke up: "Brother Jianan, whose call did you take? Why do you look so upset?"
Sheng Jianan glanced at his phone. Tang Yanqi’s soft voice still lingered in his ears, and he smirked: "A troublesome woman."
Xu Muyi bit her lip, glanced at Xu Muyun beside her, and said no more.

Tang Yanqi and her roommates finished eating and booked a small private room in a nearby KTV. They rarely came here, as Bai Bing and Bai Xue didn’t like such places. Qi Cheng, although she liked lively environments, couldn’t create much fun by herself, so they seldom came.
Today, they were only here because they were so excited about getting the internship opportunity at Shengshi, they wanted to have some fun.
Qi, uncharacteristically bold, waved her hand and ordered a stack of beers: "Tangtang, today we’re not leaving until we’re drunk."
Tang Yanqi didn’t want to drink much, as her period hadn’t ended, but she also didn’t want to dampen their spirits, so she took a bottle and placed it in front of her. She just drank a little when everyone raised their glasses.
Even though Qi Cheng was shouting about drinking, she had the weakest tolerance among the four of them, a typical lightweight. She was already staggering before the first bottle was finished.
With one hand grabbing Tang Yanqi and the other holding the microphone, she shouted loudly: "If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t believe friends are more devoted than lovers..."
A clearly cheerful song, and she made it feel as somber as "Love Even Until Death."
Bai Bing couldn’t take it anymore. She snatched the microphone from Qi Cheng and pushed her onto the sofa: "Chengzi, you better just lie down over here."
"Hey, hey, give me back the mic."
Tang Yanqi reached out to stop her: "Missy, please spare our ears."
Qi Cheng, tipsy and intoxicated, wasn’t upset by Tang Yanqi’s words. She grabbed her arm, giggling: "Tang... ugh... Tangtang, I’m telling you, you must... must make sure to secure the position of Young Madam Sheng, in the future we’ll... we’ll rely on you to rise to glory."
Tang Yanqi looked at her speechless. If it wasn’t for the fact that everyone understood each other, her words could really feel like opportunism.
After more than three hours of fooling around, Qi Cheng was completely drunk, and Bai Bing and Bai Xue had also drunk a lot. Tang Yanqi looked at them. Originally, she didn’t want to trouble Sheng Jianan, but with three drunken people, she couldn’t manage by herself, so she had to call Sheng Jianan.
In the private room, after hanging up Tang Yanqi’s call, Sheng Jianan threw his cards aside and patted Zhou Chengze’s shoulder: "Let’s go, time to pick someone up."
Xu Muyi protested, pouting: "Brother Jianan, where do you get off cheating like this? I was about to win this hand."
Sheng Jianan smiled as he put on his clothes: "Alright, tell me what you have your eyes on, and I’ll buy it for you."
"You’re the one who said it, don’t complain that I’m exploiting you later."
Sheng Jianan laughed and grabbed Zhou Chengze, who had already disappeared through the door.
"Hey, hey, I’m saying Brother Nan, why are you dragging me along to pick someone up?"
Sheng Jianan glanced at him: "I’m picking up my person. You, send the others home."
"I..."
Young Master Zhou pouted, oh well, he was destined to be a lackey anyway.
