"Hey, what's the point of you two ladies drinking by yourselves? Let's have a drink together." A young man with blond hair, wearing an earring and a gold necklace of questionable authenticity, held a wine glass, leaned over to take a plastic stool from the next table, and sat down next to Chu Xingyue, speaking to her with a breath reeking of alcohol.

Chu Xingyue raised an eyebrow. She'd only just arrived in the city and already run into these clueless bastards. She picked up her glass, clinked it against the blond-haired guy's, took a sip, and put the glass down without saying a word. Chu Jiaojiao finished her drink, refilled Chu Xingyue's glass, and then refilled her own. "Big brother, we sisters have both finished our drinks. This is beer, you're not being honest." Where did these stinky bastards come from? She'd never had a proper drink before, and they were practically offering themselves up for free. It would be stupid to refuse, Chu Jiaojiao thought to herself.

"Hey, miss, you're quite the drinker! We'll keep you company, but let me be clear: if you can't outdrink us, don't blame us if something happens later. We don't force anyone." "Yeah, yeah, if you get drunk, come have some fun with us!" The two henchmen chimed in with lewd banter.

Chu Xingyue and Chu Jiaojiao exchanged a glance. Years of tacit understanding allowed them to read each other's eyes. "Boss, we'd like a case of baijiu and ten cases of beer for this table." The proprietress shook her head at the boss, who was about to move the bottles. The boss hesitated for a moment, then walked up to Chu Jiaojiao and said worriedly, "Girls, drinking so much alcohol will be terrible for you. You'll need to go to the hospital, especially since you're both girls." He then turned to the blond-haired man next to him and pleaded, "Brother Hao, these two girls don't look like regulars here. I saw them politely clink glasses with you and finish their drinks. Could you please let them drink on their own for my sake? If something happens to them in my shop, I can't afford to be held responsible."

Chu Xingyue listened to the boss's words. She had seen the exchange of glances between the couple. The boss and his wife weren't necessarily kind; they might have been afraid that if something happened to them in his shop, he would bear the main responsibility. However, the fact that they spoke up to stop them showed that they had some courage. The boss felt his clothes being tugged and looked down at the calm and kind-hearted girl opposite him. She smiled at him and said, "Boss, go get the wine. We know what we're doing, don't worry." Looking at her face, the boss inexplicably felt a sense of trust in her, as if she was confident that nothing would go wrong.

Seeing that the two girls didn't seem scared at all, the shop owner brought in liquor and beer, piling them up at Chu Xingyue and her companion's feet. The people at the other tables automatically lowered their voices, listening intently to the commotion, their eyes constantly glancing at the table, afraid of missing a single moment of the scene.

In a private room of the teahouse on the second floor across the street, a group of middle-aged men in white short-sleeved shirts were trying to sell themselves to a young man. Another man sat on the sofa by the window, slowly sipping his tea and watching the barbecue stalls across the street with interest. From the moment the two girls sat down, the elegant Chu Xingyue caught his eye. These two young girls dared to drink baijiu alone outside, and each of them downed a cup without changing their expressions. The voices of these young men with blond hair were not quiet and reached the ears of the man who was used to enjoying the breeze.

Downstairs, the group of young men with blond hair had already drunk three glasses of baijiu with Chu Xingyue and her sister. Chu Jiaojiao opened another bottle of baijiu and poured it into their glasses, then filled her own and Chu Xingyue's glasses as well. The young men's hands trembled slightly as they held their glasses, exchanging glances and thinking: "Where did these two unfamiliar girls come from? They haven't eaten a single bite of food and have already downed four glasses of baijiu without batting an eye, and they're still going strong. We've met our match today. A woman who can drink several bottles of baijiu without batting an eye is definitely not someone to be trifled with." And there were two of them. Little Yellow Hair had saved himself many times with his keen intuition, and this time was no exception. At this moment, he was already thinking of backing down. He grinned, stood up, bent down, and raised his wine glass to Chu Xingyue and Chu Jiaojiao. "Sisters, shouldn't we eat some food? Even iron can't handle drinking like this. Let's eat and drink at the same time. I'm calling you sisters because I didn't know you were important. Please forgive me, sisters." After he finished speaking, his two underlings also stood up, raised their wine glasses, and bent down. Following their boss was always the right thing to do.
