The drinking party, where women are inherently at a disadvantage.
Moreover, the people who came today are all seniors in the circle, and they will also have business dealings in the future.
And it’s someone’s birthday banquet, she can’t afford to be rude and ruin the event. All these reasons combined, she had no choice but to drink.
From seven to nine-thirty, eating while chatting, chatting while drinking.
Su Wanxin could no longer remember how much she had drunk, only feeling discomfort all over her body, especially her stomach, which was faintly aching.
Fu Shihan was sitting diagonally opposite her, she didn’t need to look directly, and could catch glimpses of the joy he was sharing with the woman next to him from the corner of her eye.
That woman was the birthday person’s granddaughter, intentionally arranged to sit next to Fu Shihan, there definitely was a reason. As for the reason, everyone was well aware.
He didn’t refuse, and no one at the table dared to force him to drink, so he seemed like an outsider throughout the event, wearing a black shirt with the sleeves rolled up slightly, revealing an exquisitely expensive watch on his wrist.
He rarely acted so much like a profligate wealthy heir, sitting improperly with a mischievous smile.
Although different from the usual impression he gave, it must be said, women do like this kind of behavior, including Su Wanxin herself.
The meal was incredibly tormenting. Finally, when it ended, Su Wanxin, suppressing the urge to vomit, strenuously walked out.
She had already booked a designated driver in advance. Some people were thinking of arranging another round of drinking to continue having fun, and they invited Su Wanxin to join, but this time she refused.
"Sorry, I have to catch a flight early tomorrow morning, maybe next time," Su Wanxin said with a strained smile, promising, "I’ll definitely treat everyone to drinks once I’m back from the business trip."
She had given them enough face tonight, drinking whenever toasted to, although part of it was also due to Fu Shihan’s instigation, but he did it covertly, and not many noticed.
Furthermore, the signs of her catching a cold were too apparent, so the men let her go after seeing her condition.
Su Wanxin hurried to the parking lot, her face pale.
She leaned on the passenger seat to catch some cold air for a while, and soon the designated driver arrived to drive her back.
Su Wanxin furrowed her brow, her hands clenched into fists covering her stomach, feeling awful all over.
Throughout the journey, the dizziness and nausea became increasingly evident. Finally, at the moment she got home, she quickly opened the car door, got out, and leaned over the trash bin at her doorstep, vomiting uncontrollably.
"Are you alright?"
The designated driver was a girl, who got a shock from seeing her like this and hurried over to pat her back.
Su Wanxin took the wet wipe handed to her, shook her head, and thanked the girl softly, but the intermittent abdominal pains reminded her that something was wrong.
She had been drunk before, but it was never like this.
Whether dizzy or vomiting, she had never experienced stomach pain before.
Su Wanxin breathed heavily, feeling discomfort, worrying whether she had drunk too much and if it might be a stomach bleed.
She had already been living separately from Su Yao for two days, with no one else at home.
She had a flight to Bin City at seven o’clock tomorrow morning. She wanted to make money, but she also wanted to stay alive. So, after thinking for a moment, she turned to look at the girl beside her and asked, "Can you take me to the hospital?"
"Let’s go!"
The woman nodded continuously, helping her into the car.
Returning to the car, Su Wanxin bit her lip, her eyes slightly reddening.
The road to the hospital was fairly clear, encountering only one red light. Upon arriving, Su Wanxin, accompanied by the designated driver, headed toward the emergency department. Halfway there, she paused, her face changing color.
