Chapter 112: Hongmen Banquet

The two followed He Mei into the room. The room was not big, with two rooms and a bedroom, and the other part was divided into a kitchen and a living room. They had to go to the bathroom outside to wash. There were a lot of daily necessities piled in the room, so it looked a bit crowded.

"Xie Lei is here too! Come and sit down, come and sit down, the food will be ready soon." When He Jun saw Xie Lei coming in, he immediately and enthusiastically invited him to sit down. He didn't feel awkward at all. After all, he didn't call Xie Lei before, and since he was here, of course he had to entertain him warmly.

Pei Yu and Xie Lei looked at each other, and only the other party knew what was in their eyes.

"Team Leader He, this is what my girlfriend sent me. I'll bring it to you for you to try." Pei Yu took the thing in his hand directly into the kitchen.

"Then I won't be polite. I'll accept it. Thank you." He Jun thanked politely after taking the things.

When He Mei heard that this thing belonged to Pei Yu's girlfriend, her face suddenly turned bad. She walked up and said sarcastically: "Brother Pei, when did you start dating someone? How come I haven't heard of her?"

Before Pei Yu could speak, Xie Lei immediately took over.

"Brother Yu's girlfriend started dating before he joined the army, and they've even met each other's parents. You probably don't know this, but the meat sauce and rabbit meat that Brother Yu's girlfriend makes are simply amazing. If they get married in the future, Brother Yu will really make a fortune and have a great meal."

When He Jun heard this, he immediately knew what the two people meant. He also felt the same way now, and hoped that his sister would not be so stubborn.

Where is He Mei? After hearing this, and looking at Pei Yu's slightly shy expression, his whole face seemed to be twisted with anger!

This damn Xie Lei, if he doesn’t speak no one will think he is dumb, why does he talk so much!

After the dishes were served, He Mei poured a glass of white wine for the three of them. The two of them had refused at first, but He Jun said that they only wanted to drink this one glass and it wouldn't delay their training tomorrow morning, so the two of them did not refuse.

"Brother, go to the kitchen and get the vinegar. How can we eat dumplings without vinegar? Go quickly!" He Mei urged.

He Jun glanced at his sister, smiled dotingly, and went into the kitchen to get it.

Pei Yu and Xie Lei looked at each other. Here it comes, here it comes, now!

Xie Lei pretended to accidentally knock Pei Yu's chopsticks away with his arm, and the chopsticks fell to He Mei's feet. He Mei didn't think much about it and just lowered her head to help Pei Yu pick up the chopsticks.

In a flash, Pei Yu swapped his cup with He Mei's wine glass.

When they saw He Mei turned her back to get the wine glass, they became alert. You must be on guard against others!

"Come on, the vinegar is here, everyone, please use your chopsticks!" He Jun sat down with the vinegar and invited the two people to eat.

He Mei changed a pair of chopsticks for Pei Yu, enthusiastically put the dumplings into Pei Yu's bowl, and asked him to eat more.

"Pei Yu, let's raise our glasses to toast Sergeant He. Thank you for your warm hospitality today." Xie Lei stood up and raised his glass, motioning Pei Yu to do the same.

After receiving Xie Lei's signal, Pei Yu also stood up, and the two of them took a sip of the wine in the glass. Pei Yu's wine had been replaced, so they could drink it without worry.

Xie Lei did not change his wine, just in case Xie Lei pretended to use his sleeve to plug his mouth and spit the wine in his mouth into his sleeve.

"If you like it in the future, you can come often. Come and eat the dishes. They are all made with plums. You can try them." He Jun also took a sip of wine and invited them to eat.

"Brother Pei, try the braised fish I made." He Mei originally wanted to pick up a piece of fish and put it into Pei Yu's bowl, but Pei Yu dodged it directly.

"Sorry, I don't like others picking food for me," Pei Yu said lightly.

As soon as these words were spoken, He Mei and He Jun's faces changed. Seeing this situation, Xie Lei immediately tried to smooth things over.

"Brother Yu is a germaphobe. Haha, I got beaten for sitting on his bed. Just let him pick up food for himself if he wants to eat it. Just think about it, you use chopsticks covered with your own saliva to pick up food for others. How unhygienic and dirty it is."

"I'm just saying, don't take it seriously, hehe"

When He Mei heard Xie Lei say this, her face became even uglier! What does it mean? I just dislike them!

"Sergeant He, let me toast you again. Thank you for helping me when I first joined the army, otherwise I would not have adapted to army life so quickly." Pei Yu did not feel embarrassed and stood up to toast.

Squad Leader He didn't know what to say, so he could only clink glasses and drink, then let them eat the dishes and dumplings with a wry smile.

He knew that Pei Yu was pointing at him. If he didn't take care of his sister anymore, Pei Yu would no longer care about his own face.

Xie Lei stood up again and clinked glasses with He Jun. Their purpose was to find out whether there was any problem with the wine.

He Mei was also observing Pei Yu's movements and expressions. He had already drunk most of the wine, so why was there no reaction?

He Mei didn't even tell her brother about her plan for today. She originally thought that the three of them would be there and put the drugs directly into her brother's and Pei Yu's wine glasses. After Pei Yu and her brother fainted, she would leave her brother in the living room, drag Pei Yu into the bedroom, and then pretend to have sex with him.

When my sister-in-law comes back from her parents' home tomorrow morning and happens to see it, she will then say that Pei Yu forced himself on her after getting drunk. Anyway, no one can explain what happened after drinking. In order to prevent this matter from being exposed and to stay in the army, Pei Yu had to marry her.

The plan was very good, but Xie Lei followed Pei Yu here. The amount of drugs was not enough for three people, which made her a bit troubled. She could only divide the drugs into three portions and apply them on the cups, and then pour the wine herself to cover up the traces of the drugs.

She brought this drug from the village. She had seen villagers use this drug to make their own sheep unconscious before, so she secretly took some.

He Jun felt that the more he drank, the more dizzy he felt. Wasn't this just because of his alcohol tolerance?

Soon He Jun couldn't hold on any longer and fell on the table. Xie Lei and Pei Yu followed He Jun's example and fell on the table as well.

He Mei saw the three men lying on the table. She felt both excited and nervous. She gently pushed her brother, but there was no response.

He pushed Pei Yu again and called out to him a few times, but Pei Yu didn't move.

Then he walked to Xie Lei's side, reached out and pulled out a few strands of Xie Lei's hair. Xie Lei clenched his teeth in pain and didn't make a sound, steadying himself.

This damn rat spirit, why does he pull out my hair when he comes to me? Does he have a grudge against me? Xie Lei was furious.

"Brother Pei, I have liked you for a long time. Why don't you like me? Anyway, after tonight, you will be mine, and you can only marry me in this life. You wait for me. I'll make the bed now. Tonight is our wedding night." After saying that, he turned around and wanted to go into the bedroom.

It happened so quickly that the moment she turned around, Pei Yu knocked her unconscious with a knife and she fell straight to the ground.
