Cosset You Forever

She looked at the tall lanky man sitting on the chief guest chair. The man had a natural air of authority in his demeanor. A polite and professional smile spread over her face. "Mr. Hu, ladies and gentlemen, sorry for being late."

Chris Hu was the secretary of the capital committee of A Country. He was a man of low profile and was seldom seen in public. This time he was invited to a banquet to celebrate and launch the development of a new real estate project proposed by a number of CEOs from different corporations.

Chris Hu was a close friend of the former acting CEO of the SL group. Lola had seen him several times before but they didn't speak that much.

Chris nodded at the elegant-looking Lola and calmly said, "It's good to see you. Sit down please, Ms. Li. Let's start the proceedings."

Another female CEO from A Country, Joyce Mu of CP Capitals heard the words and emitted a loud laugh. She was a woman in her late thirties and was known for her forceful determination in the business.

Lola only took up her responsibility as the acting CEO recently, but her name had quickly spread all over A Country. Almost everyone knew about her!

Joyce looked at Lola intently and said, "Ms. Li, you are indeed running late. How about drinking three shots of vodka as a punishment?"

Lola Li is indeed a name with a troublesome nature. She was first caught up in love scandals with Yolanda and Harry. Recently, she was the center of attention of a kidnapping scheme. Not to mention the explosion happened in her backyard that led to the death of multiple people. Almost everyone in A Country learned about her and her name had been an object for gossip and rumors since then.

Lola Li, what a disputable person! Some people attested that she was a nice woman, while some people held the utterly opposite belief...

Tonight might be good chance for everyone to really know her!

On hearing Joyce's words, Lola gave her a sophisticated smile and poured herself a shot of vodka. This amazed everyone in the room. "Ms. Mu, of course I shall take the punishment. It is my fault for running late. I won't make any excuses. Therefore, I will punish myself with these. I hope no one will have any bad feelings about me anymore. Thank you very much!"

She was straightforward! And humble! This was the first real impression she gave to them.

First shot went down. She showed everyone the bottom of the glass. She drank a second glass. Her face turned a little bit reddish. And finally, she managed to drink the third shot of vodka. She maintained her coolness on the surface but her stomach was actually quite upset.

"Bravo! Ms. Li, what a tough woman!" Danny Fang, who sat right next to Lola, complimented her by clapping his hands. She was such a beauty and it would be fun to see her so drunk...

Haha...
