This was the first time that Gu Zhijie left a gathering early in Shi Le's circle.
In previous gatherings, whenever Shi Le was there, he would stay until Shi Le left before leaving.
No matter how arrogant and domineering his personality was, he always behaved cautiously in front of Shi Le.
But the situation today is obviously different.
Even though Shi Le had already stated that he wanted to mediate the conflict between him and Chen Yan, Chen Yan did not give Shi Le any face at all.
On the surface, this seemed to make Shi Le lose face, but in fact, it was because of him that Shi Le's words were ineffective for the first time.
That was a slap in his face, and he couldn't remain calm and rational no matter what.
In addition, after Shi Le was humiliated, he did not seem angry at all. Instead, he really listened to Chen Yan's explanation.
For Gu Zhijie, this was equivalent to Shi Le choosing Chen Yan between him and Chen Yan.
No one would think that Shi Le was afraid of Chen Yan just because he gave in.
Given Shi Le's family background and the means he has demonstrated so far, there is no one in this country that Shi Le can be afraid of.
A district under the capital is equivalent to a local city in level.
Shi Le is now 30 years old and can become a deputy in the district government. This is an extremely amazing promotion speed.
Apart from family background, if one does not have sufficient abilities, it is also impossible to be promoted at such a rapid rate.
In the eyes of many people, Shi Le is destined to ascend the throne in the future.
Therefore, in their eyes, the current Shi Le is equivalent to the crown prince who is being cultivated.
Those who can follow Shi Le and form a circle around Shi Le are loyal ministers!
Gu Zhijie thought that he had been with Shi Le first and had served him wholeheartedly over the years, but Shi Le abandoned him because of a person who suddenly appeared, whom he had never met or even heard of before.
This was a huge blow to his self-esteem, and he really didn't have the face to stay in the private room any longer.
As for Chen Yan's declaration of war just now, he didn't take it too seriously.
His grandfather might have only served as a bureau committee member for one term, but a bureau committee member is a bureau committee member. In both internal and external introductions, "Party" and "State" must be written before his name.
People who have reached this level can never exist in isolation.
There will always be a huge and solid network of relationships surrounding them.
How could a person he had never heard of, who appeared out of nowhere, shake up such a network of relationships?
With Gu Zhijie's departure, the atmosphere in the private room suddenly became much more harmonious.
Chen Yan's alcohol tolerance was extremely exaggerated due to his awakened physique. At first, everyone was just drinking normally, but after a while, everyone noticed something was wrong.
Because although he had drunk a lot of alcohol, Chen Yan looked as if he had not drunk anything.
Before, whether they were drinking together or drinking alone, Chen Yan drank much more than them. However, after three rounds of drinks, when they were obviously drunk, Chen Yan looked as if nothing had happened.
So at Shi Le's suggestion, everyone began to take turns toasting Chen Yan.
Although they would not force Chen Yan to drink at the beginning, that was on the premise that Chen Yan could not drink much. In order to show friendship, drinking should be moderate.
But that's obviously not the case now.
Chen Yan can really drink!
In this case, naturally we all have to work together!
However, what no one expected was that even though they had already started a round-robin battle, and Chen Yan accepted everyone who came, it seemed that they still could not drink more than Chen Yan!
They drank until late at night, and everyone, including Shi Le, was so drunk that they couldn't even stand up straight. However, Chen Yan only looked slightly red in the face, and he was not drunk at all...
"Brother Yan! I call you brother! Your alcohol tolerance... is this..."
Shi Le squinted his hazy drunken eyes, put one hand weakly around Chen Yan's shoulders, and raised a thumbs up to Chen Yan with the other hand.
At the same time, the unknown voice continued, "I've lived for thirty years... and it's no exaggeration to say... you're the biggest drinker I've ever met! Seriously... I've seen people drink seven or eight kilograms of liquor with a strength of over fifty degrees in one sitting!"
But even a wine god like that can't drink as much as you can! Brother Yan... I'm convinced! In the future... if there's ever a situation where I need someone to drink with me... or one where I have to give face... you have to come and help me!
With you helping me... to save face... who am I afraid of in the bar? We two brothers... can be closer in the future... I have a bad temper... If you don't like it... just say it directly... Don't worry about it! "
Chen Yan said with a smile, "Okay, don't worry. If there's anything I can do to trouble you, I won't hesitate to help you. Where do you all live? Yinyin and I will take you home. Looking at you like this, it's unlikely that you can go home on your own."
Jixiang, who was also drunk and could barely open his eyes, said, "Brother Yan... I have... a bedroom here... that can accommodate us... all of us... You don't have to... worry about us..."
Shi Le nodded vigorously and said, "That's right... Jixiang has a private bedroom for us... Why don't you and Yinyin stay here too? Let Jixiang's people clean up a room for us... Everything is very well prepared here... Don't worry... there won't be enough space..."
"Bah! It's your business how you like to play, but don't lead my Chen Yan astray. I don't want to bother with you. Chen Yan and I are leaving first!"
Chu Yinyin didn't drink much tonight. Chen Yan's superb performance attracted all the attention, so Chu Yinyin only drank a little symbolically. Therefore, she even acted more sober than Chen Yan at the moment.
"Tsk, we haven't even gotten married yet... and it's like this... Will it be good after we get married? When you get married... I'll definitely give you... a big red envelope!"
Shi Le laughed.
Chu Yinyin rolled her eyes at Shi Le, then pulled Chen Yan out of the private room.
As the door of the private room was closed again, Shi Le, who was originally so drunk that he couldn't even stand up straight, immediately became clearer.
Jixiang quickly called the waiter and brought in a few bowls of sobering soup.
After each person drank a bowl of sobering soup, the others were still drunk but Shi Le seemed to be feeling much better.
Jixiang took the initiative to hand over a cigarette and lit it for Shi Le attentively.
Shi Le comfortably blew out a smoke ring and spoke in a steady tone, "This Chen Yan is far more extraordinary than any other person. From now on, you must treat him as you would me. Don't slack off in the slightest! According to my father, he possesses technology that can bring about a qualitative change in our country!"
