Chapter 736: Setting Him Up
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“Okay, I’ll drink a little with you.” Gu Shaoting had a stomach problem, so he always stayed away from such hard liquor.
“Come, sit.” Qin Zhen said warmly. “Come, brother, let’s have a drink. Congratulations for getting your company out of crisis!”
It looked like everyone knew about Gu Group’s partnership with Tiansheng Corporation.
“Brother, I’m so sorry for not being able to help you when you’re in trouble. Here’s a toast to you.” Qin Zhen clinked glasses with Gu Shaoting again.
Gu Shaoting didn’t dare to drink too much. He always watched himself when he was away from home.
Qin Zhen saw that Gu Shaoting only took a little sip and couldn’t help but say, “Brother, is that all the face you are giving me?”
“Bottoms up.” Gu Shaoting couldn’t refuse his friend’s kindness, so he downed his drink. His stomach burned; the drink was very strong.
Qin Zhen saw his empty glass and nodded in satisfaction.
The two of had toast after toast. Soon, Gu Shaoting felt dizzy and sleepy.
What was going on? He didn’t think he drank that much. Why was he so bad at holding his liquor now?
He looked at Qin Zhen and saw that his face was red too and he was mumbling something with his chin on his hands.
Gu Shaoting wanted to say something, but he felt his eyelids becoming increasingly heavier and slumped on the table eventually.
As soon as he slumped over, Qin Zhen sobered up. He leaned over and called out, “Brother Ting, wake up.”
Gu Shaoting seemed to be asleep and didn’t move. Qin Zhen called him a few more times, but there was no response.
Qin Zhen then picked up his phone and called his friend. The two of them helped Gu Shaoting to a hotel.
Tong Fei was already in the room and everything was ready.
Tong Fei’s heart still ached when she saw Gu Shaoting.
They laid Gu Shaoting down on the bed and took a few pictures of his face. After that, Qin Zhen’s friend and Tong Fei did a few intimate poses, and Qin Zhen took photos.
After that, they took a video of his friend with Tong Fei, but Tong Fei was calling Gu Shaoting’s name.
After a few more intimate poses, Qin Zhen looked at the photos on his phone and nodded in satisfaction.
He remembered the term “deep fake” and he wanted to see if the technology was really that amazing.
Just as they were about to leave, ring, ring…
A familiar ringtone suddenly sounded. Everyone was startled. It was Gu Shaoting’s phone ringing.
“It’s so loud. It won’t wake him, right?” Tong Fei asked worriedly.
“No, I’ve added something in his drink. It’ll take at least two hours before he wakes up.” Qin Zhen said confidently. “Let me see who’s calling.”
As he spoke, Qin Zhen picked up Gu Shaoting’s phone and looked. The caller ID showed “Wife”.
So, it was Gu Shaoting’s wife calling. That was just great.
Qin Zhen suddenly had an idea. “I’ll press the answer button. You say something intimate that will cause misunderstandings.” That would make things even more realistic. The heavens were indeed on his side.
Qin Zhen pressed the answer button, and everyone held their breath.
“Shaoting?” Shu Pan asked tentatively over the phone. She was about to hang up since he seemed to be busy.
…
“Shaoting, honey, why are you answering your phone? Who is it? You’re not allowed to pick it up. You hardly come to France. Don’t you want to spend time with me?” Tong Fei said coquettishly. Such acting was a piece of cake for Tong Fei. She had played the mistress so many times and such lines were at her fingertips.
She needed no rehearsals, and they would be no bad takes.
After Tong Fei finished speaking, Qin Zhen hung up and then turned off Gu Shaoting’s phone.
The soft and demure voice on the other end of the phone stunned even Shu Pan, who was a woman.
She was in shock for a while. Why didn’t Gu Shaoting speak when he answered the phone? Why was there a woman talking instead? What was going on?
