As Ji Chen spoke, he paused, and his gentle eyes suddenly turned cold.

“However, Xiaoxiao has suffered a lot since she was young. Now that Dad and Mom are not in charge, I can only replace them as her brother. Although Ji Group has nothing to do with Xiaoxiao, Radiant will always be Xiaoxiao’s escape route.”

Everyone present could understand the meaning behind Ji Chen’s words.

Although Ji Gao and Jiang He were unreliable now, with Ji Chen as her brother, he would not watch others bully Gu Xiao.

No matter who the other party was, as long as he bullied Gu Xiao, he would definitely seek justice for Gu Xiao. No matter what, he and Radiant would always stand behind Gu Xiao.

Facing Ji Chen’s warning words, Mr Chu and Mrs Chu did not feel offended at all.

Mr Chu looked at Ji Chen with even more satisfaction.

After all, there were not many people who dared to say this to him, and Ji Chen’s words were not empty words. He had enough confidence to say this to him.

“Brother Chen, don’t worry. I won’t bully Xiaoxiao! I will definitely take care of Xiaoxiao!”

Without waiting for Mr Chu and Mrs Chu to speak, Chu An hurriedly expressed his stance. He was afraid that if he was a little late, the engagement with Gu Xiao would be ruined.

Ji Chen looked sideways at Chu An with the coldest gaze, and the intimidating air around him pressed down on the other party like a mountain. Even Chu An felt a trace of pressure when facing the current Ji Chen.

However, at the thought of Gu Xiao, Chu An still endured Ji Chen’s pressure and looked into the other party’s eyes, expressing his determination towards Gu Xiao.

After two to three seconds, Ji Chen restrained the coldness in his eyes and his expression softened a little.

He nodded at Chu An and hummed softly. “1 believe you.”

These words could be considered complete approval of Chu An, and it could also be considered complete approval of Chu An and Gu Xiao’s engagement.

Hearing this, Chu An revealed an obvious smile. “Brother Chen, don’t worry. 1 definitely won’t disappoint you!”

Gu Xiao looked at Chu An, then at Ji Chen, then lowered her eyes and smiled. This feeling of being cared for and valued by others was really not bad.

After that, the atmosphere in the private room warmed up a lot. Mr Chu and Chu Zi pulled Ji Chen aside and kept talking, discussing business matters, discussing the changes in the economy…

Then, Mr Chu and Chu Zi realized that no matter what they said, Ji Chen could follow up with a few sentences and even offer some good insights.

Hence, Mr Chu and Chu Zi looked at Ji Chen as if they regretted not meeting sooner. When they were eating later, they forced a few glasses of wine to Ji Chen.

However, Mrs Chu and Chu An’s sister-in-law kept Gu Xiao occupied, and the three of them were whispering together the whole time.

On the other hand, Chu An, one of the main characters of today’s engagement, seemed to have been forgotten by everyone.

However, seeing that Gu Xiao and Mrs Chu were chatting happily, even if no one paid attention to him, Chu An was already satisfied.

However, after lunch, everyone realized a problem… Ji Chen seemed to have been forced too many drinksby Mr Chu and Chu Zi, and gotten drunk…

After dinner, Ji Chen agreed that they would be leaving soon, but Gu Xiao realized that Ji Chen did not take any action. He was still sitting on the chair and looking at a certain point seriously.

Gu Xiao sensed that something was wrong and approached Ji Chen. “Brother, are you still alert?”

Mr Chu and Chu Zi felt a little guilty. When they met Mrs Chu’s disapproving gaze, they felt even more guilty. Mr Chu and Chu Zi, who were tough outside, wanted to hide themselves somewhere the other party could not see when they met Mrs Chu’s gaze.

“We didn’t know that Little Ji’s alcohol tolerance was so poor. When we were talking to him previously, he could still logically discuss topics with us.”

Mr Chu muttered softly, and Chu Zi hurriedly nodded at the side.

When they saw that Ji Chen’s expression did not change and his thoughts were clear, they thought that he had a good alcohol tolerance. But who knew that even if Ji Chen was drunk, he would still act as usual and only revealed that something was wrong at this time.

Mrs Chu glared at Mr Chu and Chu Zi resentfully before her gaze landed on Ji Chen.

At this moment, after hearing Gu Xiao’s words, Ji Chen slowly turned his head to look at her. After taking a closer look, he called in a low voice, “Xiaoxiao.”

“Brother, it’s me.”

“Sister.”

Gu Xiao was stunned for a moment, but she still nodded. “It’s me, Brother. You’re drunk.”

“Xiaoxiao is my sister, my sister.” Ji Chen stared at Gu Xiao and murmured.

Gu Xiao looked at Ji Chen, who was drunk and kept talking about his sister. She felt amused and warm at the same time.

“Yes, I am your sister, Xiaoxiao.” She comforted Ji Chen softly.. “How about Xiaoxiao bringing you home now?”
