Zhang Kun held a short and fat transparent glass, the crimson liquid in it had just stopped shaking, and the wine remaining on the wall of the glass could no longer flow back to the bottom. He stared directly at Shi Jiaojiao expressionlessly, and there was nothing in his eyes except for the woman in front of him. Everyone felt the oppressive coercion of this strange man, and the joy of the frolicking just now was swept away, and they all involuntarily became nervous and stopped making a sound. This little bit of silence first affected the excitement of the wine table next to it, and slowly, spread to the entire small banquet hall, and people who didn't know why either looked at each other or exchanged their heads with puzzled expressions.

Before this, Shi Jiaojiao didn't think that Zhang Kun might attend this annual meeting, Lao Liang emphasized to her many times a few days ago that this banquet was attended by all. But in the past two days, Shi Jiaojiao's mind was stuffed with her parents, Ah Ruan, Xiao Xu, and other things, and when the expected person really appeared, she was really shocked as if she was completely ignorant, and she didn't know how to react. She behaved more indifferently than anyone present, staring at Zhang Kun's deep eyes in a daze, stunned.

"Ahh I thought that it would be Lao Liang who broke this cold scene, but I didn't expect that the newly appointed manager was sensitive to Zhang Kun's relationship, he held a wine glass with a spring breeze on his face, with a smug look of "only I understand this matter", squeezed in front of Zhang Kun, and smiled with everyone: "Everyone, why are you stunned, this is the person who really deserves a toast!" Seeing that everyone's expressions were even more confused, the manager gained more happiness in showing off the relationship, and suddenly turned around and shouted to Lao Liang, "Mr. Liang, introduce to everyone!" Lao Liang lowered his eyebrows, took a sip of wine in a muffled voice, and waved his hand.

The new manager opened his mouth, and then quietly glanced at Zhang Kun's side face without any emotion, and the sudden embarrassment made him swallow his saliva. "There should be colleagues here who have seen me at the second phase of the capital injection briefing." Zhang Kun took advantage of his height, swept his gaze over the faces of everyone present, raised the wine glass that Yang took away from Shi Jiaojiao's hand, and said, "Thank you for your contribution to the company, and I apologize for meeting you so late." After speaking, he poured half a glass of red wine into one sip and lit up the empty glass.

Everyone stared at each other and reacted for a while, and their brains summarized all the relevant speculations and experiences they knew, and finally understood that this was one of the rumored big funders behind the scenes. The atmosphere was lively again, and people applauded and cheered or raised their glasses to pay their respects to the high-level who would normally be difficult to reach. Shi Jiaojiao, who had been completely forgotten, hid herself behind Zhang Kun, feeling relieved and embarrassed.

After listening to Zhang Kun's announcement, Lao Liang unconsciously licked his dry lips, lowered his head and laughed "hehe", with a tasteful expression. Dr. Yang's elbow hit Lao Liang's left shoulder for no reason, and although it didn't fall hard, it also made the stocky middle-aged man shake a few times due to the unstability of his upper body. Before he could open his mouth, Dr. Yang had already rushed towards Zhang Kun, seemingly completely unaware of who he had encountered. "Hehe" Lao Liang thought about the way this returnee elite usually saw his overtures, and couldn't help but laugh twice.

"The manager said that you persuaded the wrong wine, and there is another meaning! Don't know, do you? Dr. Yang was very satisfied with everyone's gaze, he crossed Zhang Kun and looked directly at Shi Jiaojiao in the back, "Our Manager Shi is the fiancée of Mr. Zhang, you persuade the big boss's wife-to-be, do you have to punish yourself for a cup!" The audience was in an uproar. Shi Jiaojiao had a premonition that something was wrong when Professor Yang came over, and she wanted to stop it in time, but when she opened her mouth, she didn't know how to explain, so she could only hang her eyes and freeze in place.

"I said it a long time ago, Manager Shi ......" "Manager Shi, you can really hide it!" …… The experienced personnel manager grasped the point, "Manager Shi is about to be transferred to the office, this is also what everyone is giving her, she can't drink, Mr. Zhang can't drink a cup for his wife!" The proposal was reasonable and lively, and everyone responded to it one after another, secretly cheering up, and they must coax this cold-faced person together! No one understands Shi Jiaojiao's embarrassment, Ah Ruan saw that Shi Jiaojiao's face was a little pale, and secretly held her hand, and was surprised to find that the hand in the palm of her hand was cold when the heating was sufficient!

More clever, he re-filled the wine glass to Zhang Kun in time. The cup was handed to the man, and he did not take it immediately, nor did he speak. Shi Jiaojiao's brain quickly analyzed the possible situation: he would refuse and concisely reveal the truth that the two had nothing to do with each other, which was in line with his straightforward and domineering character; He would have drunk this wine because he was troublesome and simply followed the situation, anyway, it didn't matter to him whether these people knew the truth or not......

Under everyone's gaze, Zhang Kun's action of taking the glass of wine seemed to be slowed down. He received the wine glass close to his body, turned his head to look at Shi Jiaojiao, pursed his lips and smiled, "This is for you to drink." After speaking, he raised his head and drank it all, and the whole audience was cheering after coaxing. Shi Jiaojiao lowered her eyes and used a seemingly shy gesture to hide her mixed feelings.

After three years, the percussion of each coexisting picture finally left a hidden crack on her airtight and solid heart wall, and she couldn't control the divergence of emotional lines, and thought about things in the direction full of ambiguity: he chose the second way, which could relieve her. He must have done it, or he wouldn't have taken the first drink quietly...... Shi Jiaojiao was silent in this feast, looking at Zhang Kun's back with confused eyes.

The party returned to normal order, and the colleague who came to Shi Jiaojiao accepted the tea instead of wine, but his expression was so hot that people were even more tired of coping. Taking advantage of the time when no one was available, Shi Jiaojiao patted the shoulder of the financial manager next to her, "Go to the bathroom, call me if there is something." The middle-aged woman nodded, "Go ahead, I'll keep an eye on you." "Thank you." Shi Jiaojiao got up with a bent waist and left the room with the lightest movements, for fear of alarming those exploratory eyes.

The narrow corridor carried air much cooler than the ballroom, which cooled into the lungs and cleared the groggy mind at once. The mobile phone showed that there was still a quarter of an hour before eight o'clock, and Tang Jianyu must be busy at this time, but despite this, Shi Jiaojiao still sent a message: Are you there? Today's annual meeting Zhang Kun is also here. "Sure enough, it's in the lab......" After two minutes without receiving a reply, Shi Jiaojiao leaned against the wall and blew a breath, holding the mobile phone in her left hand and hanging her arms at the sides of her body.

"Can't you find a private room?" A waiter came out of the door and saw Shi Jiaojiao kindly asked, Shi Jiaojiao bounced up from the wall and stood up, waving her hand, "No, just stand for a while, it's okay." The square-faced waiter smiled kindly, "Our store is fully air-conditioned. Shi Jiaojiao nodded, watching her walk into the depths of the corridor with a stack of white towels. The sigh in her ears was very light, but it was very heavy when it hit the eardrum, Shi Jiaojiao turned her head and saw Zhang Kun's eyes like a cold pool.
