1935: She Really Couldn’t Do It!

She Really Couldn’t Do It!

"There's nothing to pity about it. Everyone has their own ambitions. I feel that I am better suited as an agent," Xiao Yuqian said.2

"That's true! With Miss Xiao's good looks and abilities, you will excel no matter what you do.

Li Dacheng kept on praising her but Xiao Yuqian's felt extremely nervous in her heart. She came to see him so that they could talk about the acquisition. What could she do if he kept on avoiding talking about it?

"Thank you, President Li, for the praise. However, the reason I came here today is to talk about the Xiao family business. I know Licheng Group wants to buy it over but I hope President Li can spare us. If you do so, I won't be able to thank you enough."

"Oh, this thing. This is easy to solve. Come, come. Have a few drinks with me first."

Li Dacheng held a cup of alcohol and Xiao Yuqian evaded it once again. "I'm sorry, President Li. I really can't drink alcohol. Why don't I pour it for you to pay you my respect?"

Li Dacheng saw she wasn't giving him any face and his expression immediately turned slightly cold. "Miss Xiao, you came to see me today because you wanted to ask for my help. You don't even give me face when I ask you to drink with me. Where is your sincerity? Since this is the case, then there is no need to talk about the acquisition. Guards, come and see her out!"

The room's entrance opened very quickly and two bodyguards came in. Xiao Yuqian wanted to seize her last chance. She said, "Wait! President Li, I will drink this as you wish!"

Xiao Yuqian stood up, picked up the cup, raised her head, and drank it in one go.

Li Dacheng looked at her as she downed the cup and his mouth lifted up into a smile. He schemed in his heart that once she was drunk and the drug started to take effect, there was no way she wouldn't let him have his way with her.

Li Dacheng poured another drink for her after she put down the cup. When the alcohol went down into her stomach, Xiao Yuqian felt her throat and stomach both burning. It felt unbearable. She definitely wouldn't be able to drink the second cup.

"I can't drink anymore, President Li. I really can't continue drinking. My tolerance for alcohol is very low."

In any case, the drug had already entered her so Li Dacheng was in no rush. He then started to ask her to eat. "It's fine if you can't drink. Miss Xiao, eat some more!"

Li Dacheng took the opportunity to change seats and sit beside her. "I will sit closer so we can talk about the acquisition."

Xiao Yuqian felt the alcohol going to her head right now. She used one hand to support her forehead and tilted her head to listen to Li Dacheng.

Li Dacheng started talking nonstop. However, Xiao Yuqian had already started to become slightly absent-minded. Not long after, she felt a wave of indescribable heat rising in her body.

It got hotter and hotter. It was so hot that it made her want to rip off her collar.

She had drunk and also gotten drunk in the past. However, she never encountered a situation like what she faced today.

She had a low tolerance level for alcohol, but it was not so bad that she would faint from one cup. As Xiao Yuqian often hung around such social circles, she could immediately deduce that Li Dacheng had done something to the alcohol she just drank.

What should she do now?

She looked at Li Dacheng's face and she felt disgusted in her heart. She wanted to leave but when she thought about her father at the hospital and the risky situation the Xiao business was in, if she left, wouldn't their business be done for tomorrow?

Could it be that she really needed to take this step today to save the Xiao family business?

As Li Dacheng was speaking, he touched Xiao Yuqian's head. "Miss Xiao is really a beauty. The more I look at you the harder it is to hold back. Oh my. So young and pretty, with such a good figure too. If you are willing to consider me, discussions about the acquisition will be easy!"

The moment his voice disappeared, he grabbed Xiao Yuqian's hand with one hand, and his other hand was already on her back, getting ready to embrace her.

The moment Li Dacheng touched Xiao Yuqian, the disgust in her heart overpowered the effect of the drug. She really couldn't do it!
