"Ouch~ Did I drink fake alcohol or sothing? Why does my head hurt so much?"
After waking up, Chu Tian clutched his throbbing head, lying on the bed for quite so ti before he felt a bit better.
Just as he was about to get out of bed, he suddenly realized this wasn’t his place.
Glancing around at the surroundings, it seed to be a hotel, if he wasn’t mistaken.
Startled, he hurriedly looked around. Seeing no signs of anyone else, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Phew, that scared to death. Luckily, I’m alone. Otherwise, I’d have been in a really compromising situation..."
Muttering to himself, Chu Tian hesitated a mont, scratched his ssy hair, and decided to freshen up first.
Taking the opportunity while showering, he roughly recalled last night’s events.
According to his fragnted mory, all three of them had drunk a lot. However, compared to Yu Cheng, who had relentlessly pushed Chu Tian to drink, Wei Liangxiao, who was with them, was in much better shape. Although Wei Liangxiao also staggered, he was at least still fairly lucid.
Last night, it must have been Wei Liangxiao who booked the hotel for the two of them. As for Wei Liangxiao himself, he probably went ho. After all, he had to prepare for today’s show recording and didn’t dare to overindulge.
Feeling relieved that there were no inappropriate images in his mory, Chu Tian relaxed a lot.
After freshening up, he glanced at his phone and hurried to his studio.
As soon as he arrived at the office, he ran into Xu Qingqiu, who was discussing promotional materials with the operations team.
"Chu Tian, good morning."
"Ah? Oh, morning..."
The sudden greeting startled him, making him think the boss had noticed he was late. He quickly tried to slip towards the recording studio, but before he could get far, he was abruptly stopped.
"Stop right there!"
Xu Qingqiu had initially just greeted him instinctively, but soon noticed sothing was off!
First of all, it was nearly eleven o’clock. Seeing Chu Tian in a hurry, she figured he was late.
Being late was trivial, but she suddenly realized that Chu Tian was wearing yesterday’s clothes!
What did that an? It ant he hadn’t gone ho last night!
Being late, staying out all night, plus that thing he said yesterday...
Could it be that he really had a wife? And even a child?
With this thought, Xu Qingqiu felt a chill in her heart, and even her voice trembled a bit as she asked,
"Where were you last night?"
"Ah?"
Have I been caught? Is she going to dock my pay? Even though I don’t care about the salary anymore, and being late is a bit embarrassing... but given my relationship with Xu Qingqiu, she shouldn’t make things difficult for , right? Then why did she stop ? And ask where I was? What does this an?
Although confused and uneasy, since he’d been caught, he had no choice but to admit it honestly.
"Haha, sorry boss, I was drinking with friends last night and accidentally overslept."
"Drinking? With whom?"
Xu Qingqiu felt relieved for so reason, even hoping his answer was true, but she was still uncertain.
"It was Director Yu Cheng; do you rember him? From the ’Dormitory 7’ show? His show wrapped up a few days ago. He just got back yesterday and insisted on dragging out for drinks, so we ended up drinking too much."
"Really?"
Xu Qingqiu frowned as she walked over, still sowhat skeptical.
"Of course, it’s true. If you don’t believe , you can call Director Yu and ask."
Why is this like she’s checking up on ?
Chu Tian felt the atmosphere growing increasingly awkward and uncomfortable. Could she have misunderstood sothing?
As he was lost in thought, Xu Qingqiu silently stood next to him, even leaning in to sniff discreetly with her delicate nose.
The delicate, translucent tip of her nose was right before Chu Tian’s eyes. It twitched slightly as she sniffed. This all seed to unfold in slow motion before Chu Tian, making his heart flutter and giving him the sudden urge to reach out and pinch that cute little nose.
"Hmm, you reek of alcohol. How much did you drink last night?"
"Ah? Oh, I don’t rember. It was quite a bit, anyway. He ended up just dumping at the hotel—see? I didn’t even get to change my clothes."
"Alright, try not to drink so much next ti. If you really must drink, call , and I’ll co to get you."
"Oh... okay... sure."
Chu Tian was a bit dazed, feeling strangely touched by Xu Qingqiu’s words, as if a warm current was flowing throughout his body.
He spent the whole day in a foggy state.
He didn’t even realize when work was over.
"Chu Tian, aren’t you leaving yet?"
"Ah? Leaving? Yes, I was just about to go downstairs for dinner. I’ll head ho after eating."
"Alright, go ho early, and no drinking!"
"Okay, got it."
Watching Xu Qingqiu and the others go ho, Chu Tian finally snapped back to reality.
Good grief, what’s wrong with ? Do I have a fever?
Shaking his head, Chu Tian was about to go ho when he suddenly rembered that he hadn’t given Xu Qingqiu the song she requested earlier. Now that he had so ti, he might as well deliver it.
He went back to get the authorization letter he had prepared earlier. Then, he retrieved the USB drive containing the song from his System Space. He turned and went to the office. As usual, he entered the password, casually walked in to drop off the items, and then quickly rushed downstairs.
He was completely unaware that several red lights on the office wall were flashing.
It was crowded since it was after work. He wanted to eat tomato beef brisket noodles today, and if he was any later, he’d have to wait in line.
A rich person eating at a fast-food place? Well, he did have money, but before he could even get used to having it, he’d invested it all into the show.
The show’s funding hadn’t even fully co through yet. All told, he only had tens of thousands of yuan on hand. He figured he should save wherever possible, as it would still be several days before any revenue arrived.
