Chapter 1102: Very Abnormal

"Xiu, this is where you're wrong."

"Don't bring up things that are not related to the topic, kid."

"Can't you see that Tu Ran is embarrassed?" Shen Yingli despised this guy.

"I'm fine." Tu Ran was indeed a little embarrassed, but since he was a guest, he couldn't show a gloomy face.

Besides, she herself is not someone who changes her expression so easily.

Seeing this, Xiao Jie quickly coughed and walked forward, "Doctor Tu, this is the tea my master prepared for you. It's the best green tea just delivered from the south. My master knows you like Maofeng and Longjing, so he prepared it especially for you."

"Thank you very much."

Tu Ran smiled and nodded, then took the exquisitely packaged tea from Xiao Jie.

"Don't thank me, thank our master." Xiao Jie didn't dare to take credit for it.

Tu Ran didn't hesitate and glanced at Nie Xiu, "Thank you, Mr. Nie."

"Need not."

After Nie Xiu sat down, his expression was normal, as if the joke he just made was not his.

Chen Yingli immediately changed the subject, "Does my cheongsam look good?"

"It's okay." Nie Xiu said.

"Tu Ran, wear yours someday and blind his eyes." Chen Yingli joked.

Tu Ran shook his head repeatedly.

"This fabric is so precious, I probably wouldn't want to wear it."

"No, auntie gave it to you so that you can wear it. You must use it properly."

"It would be a shame not to wear it. It would be a waste of my aunt's hard work."

"Speaking of which, Auntie is really good to you."

"This gilded floating cloud brocade is the first time I've seen it. I didn't even know my aunt had such a wonderful treasure."

"I'm lucky to have you this time."

"Miss Shen, please don't say that."

"I'm really terrified."

"How could I have deserved to be in the eyes of Madam Nie?" Tu Ran really never dared to have such delusions.

Even if he hadn't wanted to use the Xie family to break away from the Lin family and find the whereabouts of the Fire Dragon Ball.

She didn't even dare to covet the Xie family.

Tu Ran has always been self-aware and never does anything unrealistic.

"Are you afraid of my mother?"

“Not really…”

"If you weren't afraid, you wouldn't have come to me to quit and wouldn't have dared to tell my mother." Boss Nie said shockingly.

"What? What are you two talking about?"

"Is there any episode that I don't know about?" Chen Yingli was confused.

Nie Xiu directly exposed the situation, "She didn't dare to accept the fabric my mother gave her for free. She even wanted to pay for it and asked me to name a price. Doctor Tu must be very wealthy."

"Ah? There's such a thing?"

"Haha, Tu Ran, are you really that afraid of my aunt?" Shen Yingli couldn't understand Tu Ran's panic, but just thought her behavior was so cute.

"I..." Tu Ran didn't know how to answer for a moment.

He could only glance at Nie Xiu with resentment, "Mr. Nie, why did you have to expose me to my face? This is not what a gentleman does."

"You didn't ask me to keep it a secret." A certain big shot pretended to be stupid.

Tu Ran: ...

"Next time if there's something you don't want Chen Yingli to know, you need to specifically emphasize that I keep it a secret."

Tu Ran: ...

After being teased by Nie Xiu, Tu Ran felt even more embarrassed and blushed.

But it wasn't a shy red, it was really embarrassing.

How could you say this in front of Miss Shen?

It made them seem like they had something shameful to do.

Chen Yingli laughed and scolded, "Asshole, you've become so powerful now that you even want to hide things from me... Let me tell you, Tu Ran and I have a much stronger relationship than you do. We can keep secrets from you, but you two definitely don't have any secrets from me, right, Tu Ran? We're best friends."

Tu Ran smiled slightly, still not knowing what to say.

Chen Yingli realized that the joke was almost over and couldn't keep going on.

He just waved his hand and started serving the dishes.

The chefs at Chenyuan are all very skilled, much better than those at Muyunzhai.

But not so confident.

They are all exquisitely presented and taste great.

But sometimes when people eat, they eat to gain confidence.

Fortunately, Tu Ran didn’t eat much at night, so he just ate a few bites.

Chen Yingli was in a good mood. Near the end of the meeting, he took out a bottle of treasured ice white wine.

"Tu Ran, I know you don't want to drink."

"Then take a few bites."

"This is my personal treasure. I found it in the wine cellar today."

“It’s very beautiful.”

“I don’t know if it tastes good or not.”

After saying that, Xiao Jie handed over the opened Bingbai, and Shen Yingli divided it into three parts.

There was just one bottle left, but the glasses were almost full.

"Xiu, you should drink some too."

"It's rare to be happy today."

"The beauty is before my eyes, and the beauty is beside me."

"Now that you guys often accompany me to dinner, I feel like my depression is gone." Chen Yingli smiled and raised his glass of wine.

"Thank you Miss Shen for your hospitality."

"Don't be so polite to me. What's the point of treating me like this? I invited you here because I'm planning to go to your Muyunzhai for a free meal later, haha."

"You're welcome anytime." Tu Ran smiled.

Nie Xiu glanced at Tu Ran and said, "You are not allowed to cheat."

"What are you talking about, Mr. Nie?"

"You are good at making hangover remedies." Nie Xiu teased half-seriously.

"I didn't know I was drinking when I came here, so why would I need to take hangover medicine? Besides... it's just one glass of wine, so it really shouldn't be necessary."

"If that's not the case, you can help me drink my cup too." Boss Nie suddenly made an unreasonable request.

Tu Ran: ...

"Xiu, what's going on with you today?"

"Has he been cursed?"

Nie Xiu usually speaks very little, but today he was unusually talkative. Not only that, he kept teasing Tu Ran, which was very abnormal.

"Yes, that's right. I'm not Nie Xiu now. I'm the Devil King."

Tu Ran: ...

Chen Yingli: ...

"It's not funny at all, so awkward." Shen Yingli mocked him.

Tu Ran retorted, "I have no reason to drink for you. You are in good health and not allergic to alcohol."

"Then I'll drink it for you."

After saying that, before Tu Ran could react, the wine glass was snatched away by Boss Nie.

Then, to the shock of Tu Ran and Shen Yingli, the boss drank two glasses in a row.

"What a nerve."

"Are you still Nie Xiu?" Shen Yingli was stunned.

The next second, Big Boss Nie started to act like a jerk. He held his forehead and began to perform—

"Oops, I think I'm drunk."

"I feel very dizzy."

"Tu Ran."

"I drank this glass of wine for you. I blocked the wine for you."

"Don't you even say thank you to me?"

Tu Ran was shocked for ten thousand years!

"You're trying to scam me, aren't you?" she asked.

"I did help you drink, and I do feel dizzy. What should I do? You're in trouble, you know?"

"Boss Nie, you are a man of status, could you please stop being such a scoundrel?"

"When did I ask you to help me block the wine?"

"You snatched it away yourself, okay?"

“What a pity, I haven’t even tasted a single bite of Miss Shen’s treasured Ice White.”

"No matter how you calculate it, the loss is all mine, okay?"

"Mr. Nie, what kind of porcelain are you touching?"

Xiaojie almost laughed out loud...
