An Ning, who was sitting next to him, stopped talking and looked at Lin Yi as if she was petrified.
“You… you actually drank the entire bottle?”
“Didn’t you say that you could drink three bottles yourself? How embarra.s.sing would it be if I couldn’t drink more than you?” Lin Yi said.
“In my current state, 1 can drink two more bottles, that would be near my limit.”
An Ning gulped.
“I didn’t mean three bottles. I was talking about using this vodka as a base and making c.o.c.ktails. 1 can drink three gla.s.ses of those.”
“F*ck, you didn’t make yourself clear. 1 drank a whole bottle for nothing.”
An Ning felt her head buzzing.
He downed a bottle of Beluga vodka in one go. Was this guy’s stomach made of iron?
“I didn’t expect you to be able to drink vodka neat.”
“Alright, don’t mind these details.” Lin Yi took out another bottle of vodka. “Didn’t you say that you can drink a lot? Let’s just do it this way. It’s boring to make c.o.c.ktails.”
An Ning,”…”
I’m a normal person. I can’t drink it like this.
“I think you’re trying to drink me to death,” An Ning said. “I’d rather have something ordinary.”
With that, An Ning skillfully made a c.o.c.ktail that suited her taste.
Lin Yi watched carefully from the side. Her technique was quite professional.
An Ning brought out more than ten gla.s.ses in one go. The two of them kept toasting each other and downed one gla.s.s after another.
It didn’t take long for them to finish more than ten gla.s.ses. Then, she prepared some more.
At first, when the two of them drank, they would chat. However, towards the end, they spoke less and less.
An Ning drank one gla.s.s after another, her face turning redder and redder while her eyes glazed over.
“Drink slowly. You’re almost at your limit.”
An Ning rested her chin on her hand and swirled the light brown liquid in her gla.s.s.
“Fortunately, I haven’t pa.s.sed out yet. I can still drink a little.”
“I’ve told you, don’t overthink things. n.o.body is perfect.”
“Our families were neighbors when we were kids, but we lost contact after my family moved away.”
An Ning swirled the wine gla.s.s in her hand and the light shone on her face.
“Last year, 1 happened to meet him at the hospital during a physical examination, and since we were neighbors when we were little, we gradually rekindled our relationship. We confirmed our romantic relationship, and later 1 found that he’s quite outstanding. He’s on track to become an deputy director next year, and I was thinking that if everything went smoothly, we could consider getting married next year. But what happened today was really unexpected.”
“Anyway, he’s almost thirty, so let’s be more realistic and not imagine people to be perfect. But don’t think too negatively either. As long as the big picture is good, don’t dwell on the small details.”
“In general, it’s good…”
An Ning muttered to herself before letting out a bitter laugh.
She didn’t seem so sure about whether it was overall good or bad.
“If it were you, would you charge forward without caring about the details?”
“If I said yes, wouldn’t I be slapping your boyfriend’s face? Besides, it would seem hypocritical.”
“It’s okay. Just answer me.”
“This kind of question is just like deciding who to save first when your girlfriend and mother fall into the water. It’s completely a false dilemma,” Lin Yi took a sip of his drink and said.
“But if it were me, I wouldn’t let such a situation happen in the first place because that would be a total failure on my part.”
“It seems that people who can achieve great things are indeed different from ordinary commoners.”
An Ning smiled and raised her gla.s.s. “Here’s to you.”
“We should wrap this up. If you drink any more, it’ll be too much.”
“It’s alright. I’m drinking red wine now. It’s no big deal.” An Ning looked at him and said.
“But if you can’t drink anymore, we can stop.”
“F*ck, I’ve been drinking for so many years. How can you look down on me?”
“Don’t talk like that that. You’re a successful person after all. Be more civilized with your words.” An Ning said,
“Besides, you’ve already had a bottle of vodka. It’s hard to tell who will fall first.”
“Then let’s continue drinking.”
After a few words, the two of them drank one gla.s.s after another. Neither of them had any intention of stopping.
In the end, after finishing the two bottles of red wine, An Ning successfully pa.s.sed out on the sofa, unable to get up no matter how hard she tried.
Lin Yi got up and stretched. He looked at his watch and realized that it was already past midnight. It was time to go back to sleep.
At the same time, three men with buzz cuts walked in from outside.
Two of them were wearing black down jackets and the other was wearing a military coat. Moreover, they were all in their thirties or forties. They were dressed sloppily and did not match the atmosphere in the bar.
“Brother Ma, we’re here.”
Seeing the three of them come in, Zhang Xiaojun greeted them in a low voice, and the three of them walked over.
“What happened? You called us over in a hurry.”
The person who spoke was the one in the military coat. His name was Ma Hongye, and he was a buddy that Zhang Xiaojun had met in prison.
“Someone bullied my brother. I’m still on probation and can’t do anything. 1 want to ask Brother Ma for a favor.”
“That’s all? I thought something urgent had happened.” Ma Hongye said.
“Where is he? I’ll go over and help you vent your anger.”
Zhang Xiaojun pointed in the direction of Lin Yi and An Ning.
“It’s that man and a woman in the corner. They’re leaving soon. When we go out later, beat the man up and run. When you have time tomorrow, I’ll buy you a meal to thank you properly.”
“There’s no need to be so polite. You’re the one who helped me find my current job. Just take it as me returning the favor.”
“That won’t do. This is a separate matter. You even brought two little brothers over. 1 definitely won’t let your hard work go to waste.”
“Alright, we’ll talk after I’m done.” Ma Hongye looked in Lin Yi’s direction.
“But that woman is pretty good-looking. I think she drank too much.”
Seeing Ma Hongye’s shifty eyes, Zhang Xiaojun asked with a smile,
“What’s the matter, Brother Ma? Do you have any funny ideas?”
“Isn’t it still trendy pick up corpses nowadays? I like that woman. After 1 beat that man up, I’ll take that woman away and play with her for the night. She won’t know who did it.”
“I don’t care about the details. If you have fun, just take it as an unexpected perk.”
“It seems like this trip wasn’t made in vain. I can’t hold it in anymore, haha…”
Just as they were talking, Lin Yi helped An Ning put on her clothes.
Then, he supported her and walked out of the bar.
Seeing that An Ning had pa.s.sed out from the alcohol, all the men in the bar turned to look at Lin Yi with a perverted expression.
After drinking so much, they were going to have fun tonight.
Seeing the two of them walk out of the bar, Ma Hongye patted Zhang Xiaojun’s shoulder.
“I’ll go out and take care of business. Wait for my good news..”
