The world of film and television begins from childhood

The confession-like words made Gu Jia's expression extremely complicated, but she didn't feel disgusted.

"Thank you for thinking so highly of me, but..."

She didn't say anything else, but Zhou Chen understood what she meant.

"I know that after being betrayed once, you no longer dare to believe in love easily, but I will use time to prove that I will not let you down."

"Thank you for your kindness."

As if to relieve the depression in her heart, Gu Jia drank the red wine in the glass.

The meal lasted more than two hours, and three bottles of red wine were consumed, more than half of which was drunk by Gu Jia, so that by the end, Gu Jia was completely drunk.

"Gu Jia, Gu Jia."

Zhou Chen pushed Gu Jia who was lying on the table, but Gu Jia didn't react at all and passed out.

A bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. This was the first time he saw Gu Jia lose her composure. No, it was not just a loss of composure. She had even lost consciousness.

There was no choice but Zhou Chen could only help her leave the music restaurant.

After walking outside, Zhou Chen directly picked up Gu Jia horizontally. Gu Jia was not short, but she was very light and very flexible. Zhou Chen picked her up easily.

That soft body made Zhou Chen involuntarily feel a little moved, but he quickly suppressed it.

"Gu Jia, Gu Jia, wake up."

He placed Gu Jia in the back seat of the car and patted her cheek gently, trying to wake her up, but Gu Jia just shook twice, pushed Zhou Chen's hand away, and then collapsed in the back seat.

Seeing Gu Jia sleeping in the seat, she looked like a drunk beauty, completely different from the strong woman she usually portrayed, and had an amazing beauty.

He couldn't help but stretch out his hand towards Gu Jia's cheek, but just when he was about to touch it, Zhou Chen suddenly stopped, then supported Gu Jia's body and walked to the driver's seat.

The car slowly drove towards Junyue Mansion. He did not take advantage of the situation, not because Gu Jia was not tempting enough, but because his goal was not just to get Gu Jia, but to conquer Gu Jia and make her return to his heart, which would allow him to be Xu Ziyan's cheap father.

Worried that Gu Jia might fall from the back seat, Zhou Chen drove very slowly, and it took him nearly an hour to get back to the underground parking lot of Grand Hyatt Residences.

After parking the car, Zhou Chen opened the back door and saw Gu Jia curled up, sleeping soundly, with drool even at the corners of her mouth. He found it even funnier.

Who would have thought that Gu Jia, who has always been a goddess in front of outsiders, would actually have such a side to her.

Gently patting Gu Jia's cheek, Zhou Chen called out, "Gu Jia, we're at Junyue Mansion, we're home, wake up, I'll take you home."

But Gu Jia still didn't respond and looked really drunk. Zhou Chen had no choice but to speak again.

Finally, after calling out several times, Gu Jia responded, but her reaction was to slap Zhou Chen's hands away with her hands and call out unconsciously.

"I won't go home. I can't go home. I can't let Zi Yan see me like this. I won't go home..."

Although Gu Jia's eyes were open, they were blurry and it was obvious that she was confused and not awake.

The reason why she said these words was probably because Xu Ziyan held a very high position in her mind, which allowed her to barely remain a little sober.

This put Zhou Chen in a difficult position. He asked, "If you don't want to go home, where do you want to go?"

"Whatever. As long as I don't go home and don't let Zi Yan see me like this, that's all."

After saying that, she tilted her head again and fell asleep.

"Ugh."

Zhou Chen sighed softly. Women really shouldn't drink outside. It was just that he wanted Gu Jia to return to his heart, otherwise, he would just pick up a corpse.

Gu Jia didn't want to go home, and he couldn't force her to go back, let alone let her sleep in the car, so he could only carry Gu Jia out of the car.

With the beauty in his arms and the physical contact while walking, Zhou Chen reacted unconsciously.

In order to win over Gu Jia and because Zhao Jingyu is pregnant, he hasn't touched a woman for a while.

Now Gu Jia was being held by him unconsciously, it would be strange if she didn't react.

I took the elevator to the 20th floor. Fortunately, there was no one in the elevator, otherwise if someone saw me, it would definitely cause unnecessary trouble.

After arriving home, Zhou Chen put Gu Jia on his bed. Looking at the charming face of Gu Jia, the desire in his heart emerged uncontrollably, and even his breathing became rapid.

Although he kept reminding himself to restrain himself, it was not easy to control himself when he saw Gu Jia lying on the bed in a casual posture.

Although Gu Jia is already 30 years old this year, she looks only in her twenties due to exercise and maintenance. Her cheeks are smooth and tender, which makes people more attractive the more you look at her.

Facing those bright red lips, Zhou Chen uncontrollably lowered his body and moved closer to Gu Jia.

But when their lips were less than three centimeters apart, Zhou Chen suddenly stopped. At this moment, he could already smell Gu Jia's alcoholic breath.

There was a pause of a few seconds, and finally Zhou Chen did not continue. Instead, he straightened up, first took off Gu Jia's shoes and coat, and then pulled the quilt next to her to cover her.

After doing all this, Zhou Chen turned off the bedroom light and walked out of the bedroom.

The moment he closed the bedroom door and turned around, a faint smile appeared on Zhou Chen's lips.

The reason why he didn't kiss her just now was not because he really didn't want to take advantage of her, but because he had already discovered that Gu Jia had woken up.

Everything he did just now was for Gu Jia to see. He wanted to test Gu Jia's bottom line, but also to pull back from the brink, so that Gu Jia would think that he was a gentleman and a man worthy of trust.

People say that women are smart, but we men are not stupid either. Not all men are animals with lower bodies.

In the bedroom, Gu Jia suddenly opened her eyes and gasped for breath.

In fact, she had already started to wake up when Zhou Chen carried her into the elevator. When she found herself being taken to her home by Zhou Chen, she woke up instantly.

She had been pretending to be drunk because she was being held by Zhou Chen. It would be embarrassing if she woke up suddenly, so even if she was awake, she pretended not to be awake.

Especially when Zhou Chen put her on the bed, even with her eyes closed, she could feel Zhou Chen's burning gaze, which made her heart beat fast.

When Zhou Chen kept getting closer to her and was only a few centimeters away from her, her heart almost jumped out.

She didn't know why she didn't open her eyes immediately and shout at Zhou Chen to leave. She just felt that her body was no longer under her control.

If the divorce had not taken place, she would have left Zhou Chen's arms when she was sober, and what happened later would not have happened.

But she had been divorced for more than a month, and Zhou Chen's pursuit during this period had somewhat moved her, so she did not stop him immediately.

Fortunately, Zhou Chen did not kiss her in the end and did not take advantage of her being drunk to molest her.

She had already thought about it just now. If Zhou Chen flirted with her, she would sit up immediately, slap Zhou Chen hard, and then leave after cursing.

She was relieved that Zhou Chen did not flirt with her, and her liking for Zhou Chen increased rapidly.

When she was pretending to be unconscious and at the mercy of others, Zhou Chen, who liked her, was able to resist the urge and did not flirt with her. Just for this reason, she felt that he was better than most men. She did not trust Zhou Chen wrongly.

"Zhou Chen, will he be a good partner? If I am with him, will Zi Yan accept him? And will his family accept me as a single mother with a child? If we are together, in the future..."

She never wanted Zhou Chen to pursue her, but now she has begun to think about whether it is good or bad to be with Zhou Chen.

In a short period of time, her mentality underwent a two-fold reversal.

At this moment, she didn't think of Xu Huanshan at all.

While she was daydreaming, the strong effect of alcohol hit her head again, making her feel dizzy again. Not long after, she fell asleep on Zhou Chen's bed.

Chapter 372 Awakening, the tangled Gu Jia

When Gu Jia opened her eyes and saw the unfamiliar pillow and bedding, she was stunned at first, then her eyes widened and she suddenly sat up from the bed.

"here?"

Gu Jia first quickly looked around, then touched her clothes, and was relieved to find that her clothes were still there.

This was an unfamiliar environment for her. She wanted to recall why she was here, but as soon as she thought about it, her head started to hurt so badly that she couldn't help but cover her head.

When she smelled the strong smell of alcohol in the room, she finally remembered what had happened.

"Last night, what on earth did I do?"

The memories in her mind slowly emerged, and Gu Jia covered her face with her hands. Even for a female elite like her, recalling the scene at that time, she felt extremely embarrassed and ashamed.

Some people lose their memory when they are drunk, but she was conscious for a period of time last night, so she has memory of what happened yesterday.

She didn't know what happened to her yesterday, why she drank so much, and why she was willing to come back with Zhou Chen. Could it be that she had already accepted Zhou Chen subconsciously?

Shaking her head, Gu Jia quickly got rid of these thoughts and then sat down on the edge of the bed.

Seeing her bag on the bedside table, she remembered that she had not returned home all night and wondered how her father and Xu Ziyan were doing.

When she took out her cell phone, she found that there were more than thirty missed calls, twenty of which were from her father, and the remaining dozen were from Zhong Xiaoqin and Xu Huanshan.

Seeing these missed calls, Gu Jia knew something was wrong, so she quickly called her father and briefly explained to him why she had not returned home the previous night.

Then she called Zhong Xiaoqin back. As for Xu Huanshan, she didn't care.

During the period after the divorce, Xu Huanshan often called her, but she would not answer most of the time because she did not want to be entangled with Xu Huanshan anymore and she was afraid that she would become soft-hearted.

After dealing with these things, Gu Jia was in trouble again because of her current situation. She woke up in Zhou Chen's bed, which was embarrassing to think about.

After tidying up her appearance, Gu Jia stood up, took a few deep breaths, then opened the bedroom door with a determined expression.

When she walked out of the bedroom, she saw the familiar living room. She had been to Zhou Chen's house before, so she naturally had an impression of it.

Zhou Chen was quickly found in the living room. He was sitting on the sofa in front of a laptop, not knowing what he was operating.

As soon as she came over, Zhou Chen noticed her. He raised his head, looked at Gu Jia, whose hair was still a little messy, and smiled slightly.

"Our Principal Gu has finally woken up. You slept for more than ten hours."

"There's some hangover soup I made in the kitchen. My cooking skills are average, so just drink a bowl. It should help with your hangover."

Gu Jia, who was a little embarrassed, was surprised when she heard this and asked, "You can also make soup?"

Zhou Chen: "What's so surprising about this? I'm not a complete novice. My hangover soup is made with medicinal herbs and it's very effective."

"Go drink a bowl first to sober up. If you have anything to say, we can talk later."

After saying that, he continued to look at the computer.

Gu Jia was originally preparing to leave, but seeing that Zhou Chen had kindly prepared the hangover soup for her, it would be really unreasonable to leave without drinking a sip.

So she stopped being pretentious and walked towards the kitchen. She opened the casserole as Zhou Chen said, and there was indeed soup inside.

Zhou Chen was looking at the share price of Chenxing Pharmaceutical Factory. Chenxing Pharmaceutical Factory was acquired by him privately and did not belong to Huaxing Group.

After the new drug came onto the market, he quickly took the pharmaceutical factory public. After a few months, as the sales of the new drug grew better and better, the stock price of Chenxing Pharmaceutical Factory naturally soared rapidly.

In just a few months, the share price of Chenxing Pharmaceutical Factory has increased more than ten times, and the growth trend has not slowed down at all. At this rate, it is estimated that the share price will reach at least twenty times the initial price before the New Year.

Although the stock price cannot be directly converted into money, it is absolutely terrifying for the development of Chenxing Pharmaceutical Factory.

In just these few months, Zhou Chen has received invitations from numerous venture capitalists from home and abroad. These people all want to invest in Chenxing Pharmaceutical Factory, and many capital giants also want to purchase shares in Chenxing Pharmaceutical Factory.

But who is Zhou Chen? Chenxing Pharmaceutical Factory has now become his tool for making money. How could he give up his shares easily?

What's more, he has the Zhou family behind him and has no shortage of funds. In the future, when he is under pressure or reaches a bottleneck, he may sell part of his shares. But now, except for those shares he has invested in the market, he will never sell his own shares.

After a while, Zhou Chen raised his head when he heard footsteps and asked Gu Jia who was walking beside him, "How do you feel after drinking the soup? Are you feeling better?"

"What kind of hangover soup is this? I feel much better after drinking it."

She also knew how to cook sobering soup, but it was not even on the same level as Zhou Chen's. Not long after she finished drinking it, she felt comfortable. The effect was too quick.

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "This is my homemade hangover soup, but it's made with precious medicinal herbs, so of course the effect is different."

At this point, he looked at Gu Jia with a half-smile: "Gu Jia, we have known each other for almost a year. The way you were drunk yesterday really opened my eyes. It turns out that a rational woman like you can get drunk?"

Thinking of the scene of herself getting drunk yesterday, Gu Jia's face suddenly turned red.

"I'm a normal person too, why can't I get drunk? But you didn't do anything bad to me when I was drunk, did you?"

As soon as she said this, Gu Jia was stunned, because it sounded like she was just acting coquettishly, and she didn't know why she said such a thing.

Zhou Chen smiled bitterly: "I wanted to do something, but I was too timid and didn't do it. To be honest, I regret it now. If I were given another chance, I would definitely do something. I would do everything I should and shouldn't do."

These words made Gu Jia's face even redder, and she rolled her eyes at Zhou Chen.

"Not at all serious."

"Zhou Chen, thank you so much for yesterday."

"You don't have to thank me. I got you drunk the first time we had dinner together. It was my fault. I decided to make amends and treat you to another meal."

Zhou Chen looked sincere, but Gu Jia rolled her eyes again.

"I won't be fooled by you again. I'm going to go back and wash up first. I have to go to work later."

"You're like this, don't go today, just rest at home."

"No, I feel fine now. There's a lot going on at school, and I need to go over and keep an eye on it."
