way, holding the pot.But the next moment, a big hand suddenly grasped her hand: "Wait a minute, Ningyuan, Xia A Po's husband is ill, give this porridge to her instead."Ning Yuan turned her head and lo...Chapter 156: Flushed and Embarrassed

The man was incredibly handsome and had an alluringly restrained aura. He wore a well-tailored black suit, with a crisp white shirt underneath.

That angular handsome face, cold and sharp eyes, thin lips, and that aloof and noble aura all over his body.

Besides Shi Lin, who else could it be

"Oh, so it's Mr. Qin's company having a team building event. I saw familiar faces from afar just now and came over to say hello."

Lu Zhibai, pushing the door open, greeted them with a playful and teasing tone.

The music in the private room was loud. Qin Li didn't speak, just beckoned his hand as a way of greeting them.

Zhong Xue, who was singing into a microphone, immediately recognized the two doctors from the hospital when she saw them. She had been injured on a construction site some time ago, and it was Lu Zhibai who had bandaged her!

I didn't expect them to know the boss, they seem pretty close.

Zhong Xue immediately grabbed the microphone and enthusiastically called out to the door: "Doctor Lu, why don't you all come in together There are more people, it's more lively!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the female colleagues in the private room expressed their enthusiastic welcome.

After all, who wouldn't want to play with two handsome guys

Even if you don't know them, it's a visual treat.

Lu Zhibai turned his head and glanced at Shi Lin, his eyes smiling ambiguously: "Oh I'm fine, but I don't know if Dr. Shi is willing to come. After all, he has always disliked noisy places like this."

The next second, Shi Rin strode in and sat directly beside Lin Mian, his voice somewhat nonchalant.

"It's pretty good to play occasionally."

Lu Zhibai knew he wasn't really interested in the alcohol, so he chuckled and didn't expose him. Instead, he sat on the sofa closest to the inside and leaned against Qin Li who was choosing songs.

"Mr. Qin, your hospitality is hard to refuse. Since you've invited us so warmly, we wouldn't be rude to decline."

Qin Li: …

What else could he say

The private room's lights were dim. Shi Lin leaned against the sofa, his long legs crossed, his posture loose and carefree.

His trousers rubbed against Lin Mian's legs, the warm temperature seeping through the fabric and flowing continuously into her skin. There was a kind of blush-inducing ambiguity.

Lin Mian gasped, stiffening in place, not daring to move.

"Mianmian, Doctor Shi is close to you, quickly pour him some wine."

When Zhong Xue finished singing a song, the person sitting beside her urged her on.

Lin Mian suddenly came to her senses and reached for the bottle of liquor and empty glasses on the table. As she poured the wine, she didn't dare to look at him.

"Here's your drink, doctor."

Lin Mian pushed the full wine glass toward him, speaking in a low voice. The two of them were as polite and distant as strangers.

It was as if he had never done that kind of thing in bed before.

"I drive, I don't drink."

Time Lin leaned back casually, letting out a few words lightly.

"Oh…"

Lin Mian reluctantly took the wine back, feeling a bit awkward for a moment.

She was about to pick up the juice in front of her, taking a strategic sip of water to ease the awkwardness. Who knew that the next second, another hand with distinct knuckles would beat her to it, reaching for her cup and taking a gulp first.

Alcohol cannot be drunk, juice can.

Lin Mian: “That’s my cup.”

"Oh, is that so" Shirin took a slow sip from his cup and said languidly, "My apologies, I seem to have taken the wrong one."

"...."

He clearly intentionally snatched it away from her, didn't he

Lin Mian was choked with anger, words stuck in her throat.

When she sat next to him, she became even more reserved, unable to meet his gaze. She could only stare intently at the screen in front of her, silently reading the lyrics.

The tip of my nose was filled with the man's faint, unique scent. It was very refreshing and pleasant to smell.

She mostly smells it when she's doing it in bed.

She hadn't seen him in a few days, and the scent of him made her cheeks flush and her heart race. Her mind was filled with images of what had happened between them in bed.

It can't be shaken off.

"Cotton, you haven't chosen a song yet, everyone else has already sung, only you're left. What song will you sing I'll choose one for you."

Zhong Xue sat in front of the song request stage and enthusiastically asked Lin Mian.

Qin Li just went out because of something. She's in charge of taking song requests here now.

Lin Mian was a little shy and hurriedly waved her hand, saying, "Forget it, I'd rather just listen to you sing. I can't sing well at all, and I only know old songs..."

Lu Zhibai, seeing the situation, immediately chimed in:

"What's the point of singing if you don't sing loudly Just be bold! Besides, Dr. Shi loves old songs the most. Maybe all the songs you sing are his favorites, right, Dr. Shi"

Shi Rin was slowly swaying the glass in front of her, without saying a word.

But his eyes fell on Lin Mian, with a playful glint in them.

"Sing a song, sing a song…"

The crowd was cheering and the atmosphere was electric.

Lin Mian, amidst the jeering and cheering, could only grit her teeth and choose a song.

Mayday's "Stubbornness". She just observed that everyone was requesting high-pitched, energetic songs and no one was asking for ballads.

To avoid dampening everyone's spirits, she had no choice but to sing this one high-pitched song, the only one she knew.

Taking the microphone, she took a deep breath and belted out a high note.

"With my last bit of stubbornness, I clenched my hands tightly and refused to let go. Is the next stop heaven Even if I'm disappointed, I can't give up hope..."

As the song ended, silence filled the private room.

After a few seconds, Lu Zhibai stiffly clapped his hands and said with difficulty, "It's quite stubborn."

Lin Mian was embarrassed: "I told you, I can't sing well..."

Lu Zhibai was speechless: "You're surprisingly sincere. I thought you were being humble, but I didn't expect you to be a genuine person."

Honesty is the only ultimate weapon.

Lin Mian stuck out her tongue and put the phone back.

Turning her head, she saw that Shi Rin's face had grown even worse.

Lin Mian: "..."

After the team building activity, on the way back, Lin Mian and Zhong Xue were originally waiting for Qin Li's car. However, they didn't wait for Qin Li, but instead, a black Range Rover stopped in front of them.

The car window rolled down, revealing half of the man's superior and delicate profile.
