I AM A MATCHMAKER ON TAOBAO CHAPTER 17

Shen Chuchu wanted to immediately get up and leave but she felt her departure would inevitably lose face for the others.* Especially towards Wang-ge whom she could tell from their recent conversation was a very proper producer.

*TL-note: To be embarrassed or humiliated, especially publicly. The expression and underlying concept come from Asia. If you lose face, you do something which makes you appear weak and makes people respect or admire you less.

Furthermore, Li Yutao and Wan Shanshan were still around. Even though she did not know what they were thinking but she felt sure they would not harm her. While she hesitated, Executive Chen spoke up.

"Chuchu, what a coincidence. You are also here."

Was it really a coincidence? Shen Chuchu thought to herself. As she thought more about it, her slightly sore head from earlier became even more unbearable. Did she drink too much? But according to her intake, she should not be drunk this quickly.

Wan Shanshan was afraid the still Shen Chuchu would ruin her plans, she quickly replied, "Chuchu, why are you standing there. You know Executive Chen so quickly get over here and apologise."

Once this was said, everyone became quiet.

Shen Chuchu stood still and frowned without a word. At this moment she felt the sky spin and had to steady herself with great effort.

Wan Shanshan touched her glass against Shen Chuchu's arm and urged, "Chuchu, what are you doing. Quickly go and have a drink with Executive Chen."

Shen Chuchu looked at Wan Shanshan's particularly deep expression and felt something was seriously wrong. As if an unknown danger was near. However, her body became even more uncomfortable and her line of sight was gradually blurred. She used all her strength to shake her head. There was only one thought in her mind, she needed to leave quickly.

At this, she endured her discomfort and opened her mouth to speak but found it exceptionally taxing. She restrained her inner panic with great effort and replied in a slow quiet voice, "Sorry, today's my fault. I am not feeling well so will take my leave now. I will make it up to everyone another day."

She turned her body to leave.

Wan Shanshan violently grabbed onto her when she saw Shen Chuchu was about to leave and spoke with a subtle threatening tone, "Chuchu, you are being disrespectful to Executive Chen! You better not forget why you came here today. Also, you are going to develop in the entertainment industry so you better think clearly. There are some people you can't afford to offend."

Without knowing why, Shen Chuchu felt dizzier and her body had an indescribable feeling. She held onto some clarity then looked at Wan Shanshan and coldly stated, "Wan-jie, what do you mean by that?"

As she spoke, her body felt unstable. Before she fell, she wanted to lean against the nearby table but she never felt the table.

"Chuchu what's wrong? Did you drink too much? Let me help you." Executive Chen's voice rang from beside her ear. Shen Chuchu did not fall but she felt goosebumps all over her body and her stomach turned with nausea. She wanted to push away Executive Chen but her arms were weak and floppy with no strength in them at all.

Then she heard another voice.

"Executive Chen, please take care of our Chuchu. Look at her, she should have known better not to drink so much when her alcohol tolerance is so low. Such an unsensible little girl."

When Shen Chuchu heard this, her heart shook and she desperately wanted to turn around and see what kind of expression was on Wan Shanshan's face. However, Executive Chen's disgusting voice rang again before she could turn around, "Haha, yes. Certainly not as sensible as you."
