Chapter 30 Why Stan is here?
Han was the manager of Wise Telecom. He was in his forties, not fond of sports, and appeared slightly overweight. Wearing a suit, he looked refined and courteous.
He received the gift bag from Elsa, which felt heavy in his hands. He looked inside and saw two bottles of premium liquor. There was something beneath them, he understood what it meant.
Han placed the gift bag by his feet and invited Elsa to sit down. “Miss Elsa, you can’t just apologize and let it slide for being late. There must be a punishment!”
“All right,” Elsa smiled, sitting down next to Han and leaving an appropriate distance between them. “But please don’t be too harsh, or there will be no one left to accompany you later.”
“Haha, of course. After all, you are Mr. Phil’s friend,” Han replied, extending an invitation to drink.
Cherry followed Elsa and wanted to sit beside her.
Phil flicked the cigarette from his mouth and pointed to the cards table nearby. “Elsa is discussing some business. Go and play cards over there.”
Elsa held Cherry’s hand and whispered, “Go ahead, I can handle him alone.”
Cherry knew she wouldn’t be of much help in this situation, so

she moved to the cards table.
Han poured the liquor into three glasses for Elsa.
Elsa smiled and emptied each glass one by one, tilting them upside down, which garnered some applause from the men.
During their conversation, Han kept leaning closer to Elsa, nearly touching her shoulders, and he discreetly placed his hand on her leg.
“I really like the gift, Miss Elsa. However, …” Han’s palm caressed Elsa’s leg, feeling its smoothness. He lowered his voice, “The matter you asked me to investigate concerns the client’s privacy. If something went wrong, I could lose my job.”
Elsa took hold of Han’s hand, pushing a glass toward him, her voice was soft and flirtatious. “You’re the brilliant manager, and I believe that nothing is a problem in your hands, isn’t that right?”
Elsa’s sweet voice ignited a fire within him, who thoroughly enjoyed her sweet words.
“As long as you help me to check the call records, it’s just a minor request.” Elsa toyed with her red lips, clinking her glass. against Han’s. “I’ll drink this toast to you.”
Elsa raised her head and finished the drink.
A tracé of liquor slid from the corner of her mouth, disappearing into her collarbone.
Han became even more heated upon seeing this.
He placed his hand on Elsa’s leg again. “Elsa, drinking is drinking, but if your compensation is too low, I won’t be able

Suppressing the urge to push him away, Elsa smiled lightly. “You tell me.”
“Be my companion on a one-week trip, and I’ll help you with what you asked for,” Han proposed with a smile, thinking it. was a good deal that Elsa would surely accept.
“I’ve been very busy with work lately and don’t have time for al trip,” Elsa pouted her red lips. “Manager Han, please don’t bully me. Why not you state a price.”
Han became a little unhappy. “Do I look like someone who lacks money?”
“Certainly not.” Elsa smiled and poured herself another glass of liquor. “I wish to be your companion for the trip, but firstly, I don’t have time, and secondly, your wife…”
She paused and whispered, “I know about your wife’s temperament. She keeps a close eye on you. If we go for a trip, she might follow right behind. If I lose my job, it’s no big deal, but I can’t afford to jeopardize your position, Manager Han.”
Thinking about the woman at home, Han felt irritated.
“All right, I won’t make things difficult for you either.” Han took out a bottle of liquor from the gift bag and placed it on the table. “Finish this and I will check ten call records for you!”
Elsa looked at the bottle of liquor, her eyes were gradually darkened.
She knew that Han was actually dissatisfied with her repeated

refusals and she even brought up his wife to irritate him. He deliberately challenged her by presenting her with a bottle of liquor!
Even if she had a high tolerance for alcohol, her body couldn’t. handle this entire bottle of strong liquor.
Seeing Elsa remain silent, Han deliberately asked, “What’s the matter? Miss Elsa, are you afraid? In that case, we have nothing to discuss!”
“I’m just thinking about which ten call records I need you to check for me.” Elsa raised her lips, swiftly unwrapped the packaging box, and took out the liquor. She unscrewed the cap and poured a full glass using a large water cup.
From a distance, Elsa could already smell the strong scent of the alcohol. She took a deep breath, picked up the cup, and raised it towards Han. “Manager Han, please keep your word.”
All the men in the private room watched as Elsa lifted the glass and finished the liquor as if it were water.
After finishing a large glass of liquor, her cheeks turned slightly flushed, adding a touch of charm. Her hand trembled as she held the cup.
Han sneered internally, picked up the liquor bottle, and grabbed the glass from Elsa’s hand.
The liquor trickled into the glass, filling it up right away.
Meanwhile, Elsa’s head started to feel heavy.
Han said, “Miss Elsa, finish this glass and you can have the deal.”

Elsa’s body swayed, and she braced herself against the table. She clenched her tongue between her teeth, then released it, trying to maintain some clarity.
“All right.”
Phil furrowed his brows.
He knew that Elsa couldn’t handle it anymore. She was forcing herself now, and finishing this large glass of liquor could be deadly.
“Han…” Phil snuffed out his cigarette in the ashtray, about to speak. Suddenly, the door to the private room was twisted open, and a waiter entered with someone.
After seeing the person clearly, Phil felt relieved. “Oh, Stan, why you are here?”
Phil’s mention of ‘Stan’ drew everyone’s attention to the door. They were surprised to see the tall figure entering-it was actually Stan!
The Laurier family had dominated half of Hill City, and
everyone knew Stan. Among the grandchildren of the Laurier family, he ranked sixth and was the helmsman of the Laurier family, highly favoured by his grandfather. Everyone who met him shows great respect.

And now, Stan had unexpectedly come to the Paradise Club.
Even the astute Han, in the presence of Stan, put away his arrogance and approached him with a smile to greet him. “Mr. Stan, I have long admired you. I am Han from Wise Telecom.””
In the face of various greetings, Stan remained indifferent.
His gaze swept over Elsa, who was sitting on the sofa, her cheeks were flushed, and her body was swaying, clearly intoxicated. His eyebrows furrowed involuntarily.
Han intended for Stan to sit next to him, with himself next to Elsa. However, Stan took a step forward and sat in Han’s seat.
Han hesitated for a moment before reluctantly sitting down beside him.
“Mr. Stan, the person next to you is Elsa, a host from Hill TV Station.” Han pointed to Elsa and introduced her to Stan, adding with praise, “She can drink a lot. She has already drunk. half a bottle of liquor, and her face is only slightly flushed.”
Stan noticed the liquor bottle on the table and the glass filled with liquor next to Elsa.
Han called out to Elsa, “Elsa, offer Mr. Stan a toast.”
Elsa’s head was dizzy, feeling uncomfortable. She was aware that someone had arrived, but she didn’t know who was sitting beside her, but she caught a familiar scent of pine wood.
