When Guan Yue returned from the restroom, his steps were clearly unsteady.

He was completely drunk.

Seeing his unsteady steps, Chen Cixiu asked with concern, "Fatty, are you alright? If you are, let's go back first, it's getting late."

"It's nothing, what could possibly be wrong with me? Besides, we're so happy today, of course we should drink and enjoy ourselves."

Guan Yue waved his hand and summoned another box.

You can tell she's genuinely happy.

Although Guan Yue's alcohol tolerance wasn't particularly high, this amount of wine wasn't enough to make him drunk, especially since he had only drunk seven or eight bottles.

Guan Yue told the owner to continue grilling skewers.

"Huh? Mr. Chen?"

Chen Cixiu heard someone calling him from behind. He turned around and saw Li Li and a boy.

"Li Li? Coming for a late-night snack so late?"

He said with a smile.

"Yes, by the way, let me introduce you, this is my boyfriend."

This guy isn't particularly handsome, but he looks very refined.

"Hello, Mr. Chen."

Although Li Li's boyfriend was a few years older than Chen Cixiu, he still addressed Chen as "President" just like Li Li did.

"If you don't mind, shall we go together?"

Chen Cixiu pointed to the location.

"Sure."

Li Li nudged her boyfriend and sat down.

He introduced Guan Yue to Li Li and her boyfriend. Guan Yue was delighted and placed a disposable cup in front of Li Li and her boyfriend.

"Don't mind him, he's with my friend and he's especially happy today."

"Enough with the talk, bro, you're really lucky. I've watched your girlfriend's live streams, she's amazing, her professional knowledge is truly top-notch. I used to be lazy when I was in school, but ever since Brother Xiu started this company, I buy things from her whenever I'm not streaming. Li Li, right? If I remember correctly, thank you, thank you for not leaving when Brother Xiu had his scandal. Thank you."

After Guan Yue finished speaking, he drank it all in one gulp.

Chen Cixiu was amused by him.

He gestured to Li Li with his eyes that she shouldn't mind.

"Haochi Media is a great company. I work there, so I know Mr. Chen's character very well. I know it's not his fault, so why would I leave? And it's not that I don't want to leave Haochi Media; on the contrary, I should thank Haochi Media for supporting me so much."

Li Li picked up the disposable cup.

Chen Cixiu waved his hand, "Let's not do that. Let's eat and drink as we please and give it a try. The barbecue here is really good."

“We came here because we heard it was a good place,” Li Li’s boyfriend interjected.

"I've heard this is really worth it, you should try it, it won't taste good when it's cold."

Chen Cixiu responded to him.

The four of them chatted and laughed and drank quite a bit of wine. Chen Cixiu drank the most, while Guan Yue was already starting to look unsteady on his feet.

Snap!

He felt someone pat him on the shoulder, but when he looked to his right and back, he didn't see anyone.

"You drank quite a lot."

Guan Yue was already somewhat dazed at this point.

Hearing this, he looked up and saw a familiar face.

"Hey, Brother Xiu, I think I'm really drunk. Why do I see Chen Yue?"

Chen Cixiu put his hands down, and when the owner brought over the skewers, Chen Cixiu gestured for him to take them to the table next to him, giving Li Li and her boyfriend a look.

They understood immediately and moved to the table next to them.

Shen Yue did indeed arrive.

It wasn't Guan Yue who said he was drunk.

But he was curious: wasn't Shen Yue supposed to be working out of town? Why was she here now?

If they weren't out of town, it would be impossible for them not to come to his engagement.

It's precisely because it's located in another city that no one comes.

"Yeah, you've had too much to drink. Go take a nap. I'll chat with Cixiu for a bit."

Shen Yue sat down and poured some wine. "Together?"

Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Cixiu picked up his glass and clinked it against Shen Yue's.

After downing his drink in one gulp, Shen Yue said, "I wasn't originally going to come back, but my boss at that company is such an idiot."

Shen Yue used to be such a gentle girl. Except when she stood up to explain the reason after Guan Yue helped her in high school, she usually spoke very softly.

Even after going to university, it's still the same. It hasn't been that long.

The girl started cursing at the boss as soon as she came in.

"If I had known this would happen, I would have left earlier and come back for your engagement. I missed your proposal and your engagement. I'm so angry."

After saying that, he drank another cup.

"How did you know that Fatty and I were here?" Chen Cixiu asked with a smile.

"Do you think I don't know you guys? Since he said he wanted to invite you to eat, it must be here. He's told me about this place so many times, so I came here as soon as I got back."

Speaking of this, Chen Cixiu turned around and saw the suitcase.

No wonder, did you get off the high-speed train or the airport and come here immediately?

"So you're back and he still doesn't know?"

Chen Cixiu looked at Guan Yue.

At this moment, Guan Yue was truly drunk.

"What does he know? After I agreed to his request, he actually told me he wanted to come back and develop his career. If I still had my job at that time, I would have been furious. Luckily, that boss was really... never mind, let's not talk about that idiot. Here, I'll drink this as an apology. You can do as you please."

Shen Yue downed another gulp.

This girl who's been in the north for four years is really something else.

This person has become much more bold and unrestrained in temperament.
