Billionaire God of War

Jiang Ning sat across Liu Qing. He stared at her reddened eyes and found himself at a loss for words.

"This is some potent wine!" Liu Qing narrowed her eyes. "It burns. But we should drink and celebrate, right?"

Jiang Ning knew that she was trying to force a smile on her face.

He didn't understand why she was doing it though. All he had said was that he wasn't going to fall in love with her. She didn't have to react this way.

They had only known each other for a brief period of time. Had she really fallen in love with him?

"You're right. We should celebrate. But I'm not sure if that's what you're doing. I'm worried that you're trying to drown your sorrows," said Jiang Ning. "Are you sure you're not feeling upset?"

"I'm not!" Liu Qing yelled before filling Jiang Ning's and her cups full. "Come on, drink!"

She emptied her cup. Her eyes landed on the empty bottles on the table.

"Men! Bring us more wine!"

Her eyes had turned misty. She stared unblinkingly at Jiang Ning. He could hear the slightest hint of moroseness in her voice.

"I know I'm not a likeable person," said Liu Qing. "My father doesn't pay any attention to me. My brothers never treated me as their sister. Everyone else thinks I'm just riding on my father's position as the sect leader...I wanted to prove myself, but I've never been able to do that. Then you turned up."

Her eyes gradually took on a gentle sheen. That was a bad sign. Jiang Ning's instincts blared loudly at him.

"You're drunk," said Jiang Ning. "Stop. You should head back to your room and get some rest." 'Tm not drunk." Liu Qing waved her hands wildly and turned towards the guard standing hesitantly at the door. "Go get me more wine!"

Exasperated, the guard left.
