Chapter 486 Don’t be afraid
As night falls, stars dot the night sky.
The magnificent banquet hall was brightly lit.
Golden chandeliers, exquisite silverware, sparkling crystal glasses, fresh flowers and shadowy candlelight.
These luxurious and romantic elements all demonstrate the current prosperity of Siyuan Jewelry.
In the luxurious private room, romantic jazz music played slowly.
The gorgeous woman in a white lace evening gown was sipping milky coconut juice absentmindedly.
With graceful curves and a slender waist that can be held in one hand, she is elegant and noble, like a charming angel descended to the earth.
Rachel held a wine glass and handed it to Ruya, "Si Yuan, it's boring to just drink coconut juice. You can't live without drinking when you're in the world. At a party, only drinking can liven up the party."
Ruya took the wine glass and put it on the coffee table. "I'll pour it out in one glass. In order to save you some trouble tonight, I'd better not drink this wine."
Rachel looked at the red wine glass on the coffee table thoughtfully. "You actually get drunk after one glass of wine? Can I understand that you will lose your memory after drinking one glass of wine?"
Ruya chuckled, "It's not as severe as blackout, but it's almost there. Anyway, I can't drink alcohol with a certain alcohol content."
Rachel's eyes flashed with a meaningful light, "What a coincidence, isn't it? I am the exact opposite of you. I can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk."
Rachel blinked at Ruya and said, "Si Yuan, you should invite me to all your dinner parties from now on. When we discuss business, you drink juice and I will drink for you. We can go out together and not have that stinky man Si Che."
Hearing the wine-blocking, Ru Ya was startled, and then she fell into the past.
When Si Yuan Jewelry was just starting out, she and Si Che were often forced to drink.
She thought that wine culture was only applicable in China, until Siyuan Jewelry wanted to expand its business...
Ruya then realized that wine culture is a global passport, except that white wine has become brandy, vodka, and whiskey...
Once upon a time, whenever there was a dinner party, Si Che would help her block the drinking.
Every time after coming out of a dinner party, Si Che would almost always hold on to a tree and vomit all over the place. There were even a few times when he drank so much that he had stomach bleeding and was admitted to the hospital.
Ru Ya sighed softly, and suddenly wondered if she was going too far by deliberately distancing herself from Si Che.
After all, she and Si Che have a friendship of sharing weal and woe.
Although they are not related by blood, they are closer than siblings.
Ru Ya closed her eyes and kept convincing herself that it was right for her to distance herself from Si Che. She could accompany him for a while, but it was not a long-term solution.
a long time···
Ruya said, "Rachel, your timing in coming to Siyuan Jewelry is great."
Rachel was confused, "What do you mean?"
Ruya pointed at the glass of coconut juice and said, "Power, status and money are the best amulets for women. With these, women don't have to cater to anyone. For example, now I rarely attend useless dinner parties. If I really need to attend, then everyone in the party must accompany me to drink coconut juice."
"Those days when I was forced to drink are all gone..."
Rachel wanted to say that she admired her very much, but when she opened her mouth, she suddenly felt that the word "admiration" was too thin.
It was not easy for her to work her way up in D's company, let alone starting a jewelry brand from scratch.
Along the way, there will inevitably be swords, sabers, and blood.
Si Yuan is now safe and sound, and he must have paid a lot to achieve his current position as a king.
After a long while, she finally spoke, "You must have had a hard time these years."
Ruya had a faint smile on her face. Is it difficult?
Of course it is difficult.
However, all the hardships and difficulties she had experienced have now become her indestructible armor as time went by.
Ruya thought that now she should have nothing to be afraid of.
Likewise, nothing can bring her down.
What she needs to do is to become strong, strong, and infinitely strong.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little depressing, but Rachel was still thinking about tonight's mission, so she suggested: "Si Yuan, let's go out and feel the lively atmosphere outside. Young people, don't be so depressed. Let's go, get up and have fun!"
Rachel continued to talk without stopping, she just pulled Ruya out.
Ruya was dragged out of the private room by Rachel. She looked at the noisy crowd in front of her and suddenly felt a little at a loss.
At this time, a waiter was walking towards them with a tray. Rachel waved and took out two highball glasses from the tray.
It's two glasses of milky white drinks.
Rachel took a sip and said, "Hmm~ It's coconut milk, Si Yuan, no wonder you like coconut milk. I just drank some wine and now I'm tasting coconut milk. This coconut milk is really a breath of fresh air in the beverage world."
"Here, Si Yuan, try it."
Ruya did not take the wine glass, "I don't want to drink anymore. I'm not thirsty now."
Rachel suddenly realized that everyone has two sides.
For example, Yao Yuan is a bloodthirsty, cruel and tyrannical boss outside, but he gives all his tenderness to Si Yuan.
As for Si Yuan, she is decisive and resolute at work, a typical queen.
But putting aside work, Si Yuan in life is a bit silly and cute. For example, the current Si Yuan is more like what a 24-year-old girl should be like.
"Look at the men and women holding wine glasses around you. How many of them are really thirsty?" Rachel insisted on handing the wine glass to Ruya. "Drink it. After you drink it, I will take you to dance over there."
Ruya had no choice but to drink up the coconut milk in the cup in one gulp.
After she drank all the coconut milk, she felt a little strange. The taste of this coconut milk was a little different from the one in the private room just now.
However, she was now clear-headed and had not tasted any alcohol at all.
Besides, Rachel drank it just now.
So, she let Rachel lead her around without worry.
She didn't want to dance, so she just sat on a couch nearby while Rachel danced.
Suddenly, all the lights in the ball went out.
Just when everyone was panicking, a pure English accent rang in everyone's ears.
It turned out that the thirty-minute late-night masked dance had begun.
Five minutes of total darkness while everyone finds their dance partner.
Then turn on the dim lights and play some music.
The sudden darkness made Ruya feel a little flustered, as she used to be not afraid of the dark.
But after living in Northern Europe for three years, she developed a deep fear of dark environments.
Rachel let go of Ruya's hand at this time, "Si Yuan, I'm going to find my electric shock Romeo, listen to me, enjoy tonight boldly, dear, bye~"
Ruya was panicking and wanted to find Rachel, "Rachel, where are you, I..."
Afraid of the dark, the two words haven’t been uttered yet.
Her hand, which was groping in the air, was suddenly gently held by someone.
A man's suppressed voice came to my ears, and he said in English, "Don't be afraid."
