My Billionaire Husband Claimed Me His Precious-Chapter 898 - 817: Drowning Sorrows in Alcohol

"You should also consider what industry he’s in, and the fact that he decided to invest without any hesitation before filming begins shows he’s adaptable in any situation."

"Your opinion of Meng Yan is quite high."

Mo Wenwan gazed at Meng Yan with a faint expression, her eyes flickering: "If it weren’t for the paparazzi catching him meeting Hua Tiantian in private, I would think even more highly of his composure."

"If you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have forgotten. How is Hua Tiantian now?" 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

"She’s fine. She called me yesterday, saying she’s in a good state now. Her current focus will be on work, and she doesn’t want to think about anything else for the time being."

Lin Xiaoxiao nodded thoughtfully: "Fortunately, she’s come to her senses. It’s for the best."

Meng Yan certainly handled his liquor well. Rong Lan watched him, seeing him drink glass after glass without any sign of getting drunk. Thinking about how he couldn’t drink anymore made him sigh. He used to dislike drinking, so it didn’t matter, but now that his body absolutely forbids it, he feels something is missing.

"What, the lesson from last time still sticks with you?"

Qin Miaomiao placed a glass of juice in front of Rong Lan, speaking with utmost seriousness: "From now on, you can only drink juice."

Rong Lan couldn’t help but smile bitterly, staring at the orange-yellow juice and said: "Just now, President Meng reminded me in the same way. Did you all plan in advance today to keep me from touching any alcohol?"

"We are all thinking about your health." Qin Miaomiao said, glancing over at Meng Yan before continuing: "If you follow President Meng’s lead, you might end up in the hospital sobering up."

Qin Miaomiao spoke very seriously and solemnly, leaving Rong Lan with no room for doubt.

"To not let your kindness go to waste, I’ll drink this juice completely."

"That’s more like it."

Qin Miaomiao spoke to Rong Lan in a tone akin to an adult talking to a child. Ever since she accidentally heard from an assistant that Rong Lan’s health hadn’t been good lately and that the doctor had banned him from drinking, it became clear that previous events had impacted his health.

Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but feel guilty.

Rong Lan noticed something was off with Qin Miaomiao, and asked, puzzled, while setting down his juice: "What’s wrong with you?"

"Rong Lan... actually, you don’t have to be this nice to me. I’m afraid I can’t repay your kindness."

Suddenly, Qin Miaomiao spoke her mind. The surroundings were noisy, and no one paid attention to her and Rong Lan speaking quietly. As her words reached Rong Lan’s ears, his fingers began to shake nervously.

"Did you hear something you shouldn’t have, or why..."

"No. It’s just that I feel... your concern for me goes beyond that of ordinary friends." Qin Miaomiao said, her eyes vacant as she looked at the man who seemed bewildered.

Lin Xiaoxiao stared at a string of harassment calls, reaching her limit of patience, and looking at the familiar phone number, she snapped: "Mr. Song, are you done yet?"

Considering today was a wrap-up party, Lin Xiaoxiao deliberately lowered her voice. She thought sourly of how things with Song Li had ended on bad terms, and now her mind wasn’t on him at all. After impulsively shouting, she noticed the other side went silent, and she softened up.

"I’m very busy now, just say what you have to say."

Qin Miaomiao couldn’t find Lin Xiaoxiao anywhere. She had just spoken with Rong Lan, unexpectedly making the atmosphere extremely awkward. To give each other some space to think, she temporarily left the hall, planning to get some fresh air outside.

Rong Lan knew very well that the chance between him and Qin Miaomiao had passed. The reason he agreed to direct "Secret Number Six" was to resolve his conflict. Although the doctor had long advised him to stay in the hospital and go nowhere, he still went to see Qin Miaomiao.
