Yan Rusheng wasn't entirely drunk; he just didn't want to be sober . If he were sober, he wouldn't have had the courage to go to her room, nor would he hug or apologize to her .
When he hugged her just now, he could feel her body trembling . Fear was evident in her eyes as well .
Was she really traumatized by what he did that night?
"I'm not signing . " He relinquished his grip and tottered to the bed .
Xuxu was startled by his reply . "Why?"
Did he get drunk because something went wrong with the contract?
He had spearheaded this project with Country Y ever since he took over the reins of the company . Furthermore, he had made countless trips to Country Y because of the project .

He had invested time, effort, and resources into this project and it was practically almost ready to begin . How could he just say that he wasn't going to sign the contract?
Xuxu had already brushed aside her fear aside the minute she started thinking of work-related matters . She trailed after Yan Rusheng and kept pressing him for an answer .
Yan Rusheng sat down on her bed and leaned lazily against the headboard . Xuxu sat in front of him, and he gazed at her, unsmiling . "Charles wanted to add an additional clause and change the representative from our side to you . Do you think I would agree to that?"
Xuxu frowned with puzzlement and thought to herself, Why would Charles ask to change it to me?
We've only ever met that one time .
Yan Rusheng smirked when he saw her puzzled expression . "Wen Xuxu, are you shocked too? You're such an ordinary woman, yet you're so eye-catching to other men . "
He turned to his side, his back facing her, and pulled her blanket over his head .

Xuxu looked at him calmly, "Since I'm so ordinary, then exchanging me for a contract worth hundreds of millions of dollars is a good deal . "
After hearing his reply and according to her understanding of him, he had definitely fallen out with the other party earlier today .
Even though he didn't have any feelings for her, he was a man filled with arrogance and pride . How could he allow himself to use a woman, his lawful wife to win a contract?
So she wasn't in the least bit surprised by his decision . She was merely worried about the consequences it would bring since the Board of Directors had been eagerly anticipating the commencement of this project .
Xuxu was still fretting about what would happen if they failed to sign the contract and how he'd answer to the Board of Directors . Yan Rusheng peeked his head out from the blanket and looked at her, seething with anger . "Yes, so I'm also blind . "
Xuxu was dumbfounded when she heard his confession .
'You're such an ordinary woman, yet you're so eye-catching to other men . . . '
No no no, Wen Xuxu, don't overthink it!
She shifted her wandering mind back to the important matter once more . "Let's look for Princess Lu Fei and talk things over tomorrow . "
Since they were married, she had to play her part when it came to Flourish & Prosper's matters .
This project with Country Y had a significant impact on the company, and she couldn't sit by and watch him being ruled by his emotions .
Yan Rusheng sneered, "I'm not discussing it anymore . I don't care about the contract . "
Xuxu flared up . "Yan Rusheng, then leave if you're not going to talk about the contract!"
"If I agree to discuss it, does that mean that I don't have to leave?" Young Master Yan asked softly . His peach-blossom-shaped eyes shone like exquisite black jade, sparkling as he blinked .
He seemed to be acting like a spoiled child .
Xuxu was speechless . " . . . "
His behavior tonight must be due to his pride being threatened and provoked, and he couldn't take it lying down . That must be why his brain was malfunctioning .
Yan Rusheng gradually shut his eyes as Xuxu watched him . And his breathing became regular and deep .
Xuxu was aware that a drunk man was really dangerous, especially when that man . . . was Yan Rusheng .
She thought that it would be unwise to antagonize him right now .
She was about to get up and head to the guest room when she caught sight of Yan Rusheng's feet . He was still wearing his leather shoes, and it had already stained her floral bedsheets .
