…

At the Li family's dinner table.

Looking at Li Yanbai, who was slumped on the table after drinking, Chu Yang smiled shyly: "You all saw it too, it was Uncle who insisted on drinking with me, I had no choice."

Han Dachun gave him a thumbs up.

Wenjing, Lianhua, and Ding Lei were filled with admiration.

Zhang Xiaoyu and Li Qingshu had strange expressions.

Li Yanbai, who had been drunk to the point of passing out, was still muttering, "You little brat, you can really drink, huh? I couldn't even take you down... hiccup, awesome!"

Then he raised a hand and put it on Chu Yang's shoulder: "I admire you, but let me make this clear first, if you dare to bully... Shu'er, if you dare to do anything to betray her, I'll... I'll slap that Heart-Turning Bottle... on your forehead!!"

After saying that, he fell asleep.

Chu Yang: "..."

Zhang Xiaoyu quickly said, "Chu Yang, don't listen to this old senile man's drunken talk. You guys continue eating. I'll throw him onto the bed first, Shu'er."

“Okay, Mom.” Li Qingshu glanced apologetically at Chu Yang.

Then, she and her mother, one on each side, lifted Li Yanbai up and dragged him into the room, as if they had done this countless times before, their movements quite practiced.

"Wow, Chu Yang is amazing! He got his future father-in-law drunk in no time, and you didn't even flinch. I'm impressed!" Han Dachun exclaimed.

Chu Yang smiled slightly: "It's because he can't hold his liquor; he gets drunk after just half a jin."

Shen Nansheng is probably of similar strength, so taking him down would be a piece of cake.

"Come on, shall we have one too?" he said with a smile, raising his glass.

Da Chun waved his hands repeatedly: "With your alcohol tolerance, I can't even beat you at drinking coconut milk!"

Chu Yang turned his wine glass toward Wen Jing and the other two.

The three of them backed away, saying, "We'll just have soda. You can really drink!"

…

"You've drunk so much, don't you want to rest for a bit?"

After lunch, Chu Yang and Li Qingshu took a walk in the courtyard.

Han Dachun, Wen Jing, Lianhua, and Ding Lei then played mahjong together.

Li Yanbai, a wealthy and powerful man, even had mahjong tiles made of the finest Hetian jade in his home.

There's also this huge garden-style mansion, filled with antique collections.

After having a drink with him, Chu Yang even had the urge to become sworn brothers with him.

Having more elder brothers makes the road easier to travel.

As for what the specific relationship will be like in the future, we'll see how things unfold then.

"I'm fine. Someone with your dad's alcohol tolerance can outdrink five or six people," Chu Yang joked.

Li Qingshu was amused and then said, "Let's see if he can still be so arrogant. He's putting on airs like he's in the sky. Hmph."

It seems he's a bit unhappy with his father's previous behavior.

Chu Yang held her hand and said softly, "Your father didn't mean any harm; he was just trying to help you. But it seems he's accepted me now, isn't he?"

Holding his hand, Li Qingshu felt a little flustered. She looked around and tried to break free, but he held on tightly.

"What do you mean by accepting you? It's not like I've accepted you..."

"Propose marriage in person?" Chu Yang replied.

Li Qingshu blushed and said, "Who asked you to propose marriage?"

Chu Yang chuckled and pulled her closer to him. Their arms brushed together, and it felt like an electric shock.

Li Qingshu seemed to enjoy the touch as well, and said softly, "My dad is often out socializing, and he always comes home drunk. Will you do that in the future?"

"No, although I have a high alcohol tolerance, I rarely drink." Chu Yang stopped, picked a pure white jasmine flower, and tucked it into her hair. Then he examined it closely and said, "It's beautiful, but you are more beautiful than the flower."

Li Qingshu nodded shyly, a sweet smile spreading across her lips.

Then, as if remembering something, she sighed softly, "I'm going to the capital tomorrow, and I won't see you for more than a month."

“We can video chat using QQ,” Chu Yang said.

"QQ video chat?" Li Qingshu occasionally goes online, but she only browses forums.

These days, penguins are still relatively new, with only a few million online users nationwide.

Who would have thought that twenty years later, not only QQ, but also WeChat, would completely cover the social communication of all Chinese people?

This reminded Chu Yang of something, and he decided that when he had some free time, he would see if he could find Little Ma through Shen Nansheng, maybe even become his sworn brother or something.

"Okay, you can register a QQ account and then add me as a friend, and then we can video chat, face to face through the screen."

"That's amazing!" Li Qingshu's beautiful eyes lit up. "Then help me set it up now. We can use my dad's computer while he's drunk!"

Then she pulled Chu Yang into a study.

The study was decorated and furnished in an antique style, with various calligraphy and painting ornaments. Chu Yang estimated that any one of them could be sold for a high price.

Li Qingshu went to the computer and pressed the power button.

“My dad won’t let me use his computer, but I know the login password.”

"Why would you tell me the password if I wouldn't let you use it?" Chu Yang was very curious.

“He accidentally said it once when he was drunk,” Li Qingshu said with a mischievous smile.

Chu Yang was immediately alarmed. Drinking could easily lead to trouble. He must never get drunk again, or his secrets might be exposed.

Li Qingshu entered her account password on the keyboard and successfully logged into the desktop.

Then I blushed at the sight of a bunch of beautiful women on my desktop.

Chu Yang suppressed a laugh, feeling that this busty girl looked familiar, like Ms. Muto?

This respected figure in the entertainment industry, renowned for both his talent and virtue, is truly the most respected mentor to many promising young people.

There's an old saying that goes something like this: "I've never met Muto in my life..."

So, there must be a lot of good stuff hidden in Old Li's computer.
