For Fang Zheng, drinking with others is a very fresh experience.

In fact, Fang Zheng himself didn't like drinking very much. Although he lived in a country with a popular drinking culture before his rebirth, it didn't mean that Fang Zheng liked drinking. It could even be said that Fang Zheng always kept a distance from drinking, and only drank a few glasses occasionally, but that was all.

As for drinking and competing in drinking, Fang Zheng has no chance of doing that.

After being reborn in this world, Fang Zheng only went to the tavern in the main world to drink a few glasses occasionally. Later, when he opened the Tiandao Palace, he naturally didn't drink much. After all, the people around Fang Zheng were all children, so Fang Zheng certainly couldn't take them to drink, let alone drink in front of them.

"Mr. Fang Zheng, you seem to seldom come to the bar?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha sat at the bar, looking at Fang Zheng beside her, and asked curiously. Fang Zheng took the wine handed over by the bartender and nodded.

"Yes, in fact, I seldom drink."

“This is really rare.”

Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Kasumigaoka Utaha showed a surprised expression.

"To be honest, this answer really surprised me."

"Anyway, drinking less alcohol is good for your health."

Fang Zheng raised his glass and took a sip, then smiled and shook his head. He certainly knew why Kasumigaoka Utaha was so surprised. After all, Japan's drinking culture was even more fierce, and it was not uncommon for office workers to go to izakayas after get off work and drink until they vomited. It should be said that in Japanese society, men who don't drink much are rarer than pandas.

"I think drinking is a good pastime."

As she spoke, Kasumigaoka Utaha stretched out her fingers and gently stroked the edge of the wine glass.

"At least I can forget about those unpleasant things and not have to think about anything... leave all the troubles behind..."

Hearing what Kasumigaoka Utaha said, Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows and looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha beside him. Because she had attended the celebration party before, Kasumigaoka Utaha was wearing a pure white dress and tight black stockings on the lower body. Her seductive curves could be clearly seen under the dim light of the bar. At this moment, Kasumigaoka Utaha looked a little melancholy.

"What's wrong? You look like you have something on your mind. Are you dissatisfied with this sale?"

"That's not the case. This book makes me feel very happy."

Hearing Fang Zheng's question, Kasumigaoka Utaha smiled bitterly and shook her head, then she turned her head and looked at Fang Zheng.

"But, Mr. Fang Zheng, I did discover something when I was collecting materials."

"Oh? What did you find?"

“Those children…”

As she spoke, Kasumigaoka Utaha narrowed her eyes complacently and revealed a fox-like smile.

"You seem to have an unusual relationship with several kids in the Dark Moon Sword Guild."

Having said that, Kasumigaoka Utaha stared at Fang Zheng carefully, waiting for his reaction, but Fang Zheng calmly drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and then looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha again.

"Ah, yes, that's true... so what?"

"Is this okay? If Sawamura-san finds out..."

"She knows."

"Why?"

Hearing Fang Zheng's calm answer, Kasumigaoka Utaha was stunned.

"What does this mean?"

"Like I said, Eriri is well aware of the situation between me and the other girls. In fact, they have a pretty good relationship with each other."

"That Sawamura-san?"

"Why? You don't believe it?"

"certainly……"

Hearing Fang Zheng's question, Kasumigaoka Utaha shook her head in disbelief, and then she took another sip of wine.

"That Sawamura-san who uses the tsundere blonde twintails as a label? How could she accept that? To be honest, from what I know about Sawamura-san, if she found out about this, she would probably be devastated."

"Blonde and tsundere with twin tails? She does have blonde hair and twin tails, but to be honest, I've only seen her act tsundere a few times."

Fang Zheng also ordered another glass of wine and continued talking.

"My impression of Eriri is that she is a serious, smart, and very frank child."

"I can't find even a trace of honesty from Sawamura-san..."

Hearing this, Kasumigaoka Utaha felt even more incredible.

"Are we really talking about the same person?"

"I don't know exactly what Eriri was like before, at least that was the impression she gave me when I saw her in the game world... Of course, she was a little bit awkward at first, but... she gradually got used to it."

“It’s really unimaginable…”

After taking another sip of wine, Kasumigaoka Utaha murmured to herself, and then she looked at Fang Zheng curiously again.

"So, Mr. Fang Zheng, if you don't mind, could you tell me how you got together with Eriri?"

“Is this also part of the source material for the novel?”

"No, it's just my personal interest in my friend's relationship experience."

"Well... to be honest, it was Eriri who confessed to me first. At that time, she expressed her feelings to me and confessed her love to me, and I agreed to her confession..."

"But you are also dating other girls at the same time, isn't that unfair to Sawamura-san?"

Having said that, there was already a hint of criticism in Kasumigaoka Utaha's tone.

"I once confessed to Eriri that I couldn't love only her, and Eriri understood this."

However, Fang Zheng didn't care and continued talking. However, after hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Kasumigaoka Utaha snorted.

"Isn't there a choice to love only her?"

"No."

Fang Zheng shook his head.

"To be honest, I can't understand the idea and feeling of loving only one person. In fact, before Eriri confessed her love to me, I already had several girlfriends. So if I don't make it clear to Eriri, it will not only be irresponsible to Eriri, but also to my other lovers."

Fang Zheng was telling the truth. Of course he "knew" what love was. After all, there were many such plots in TV, novels, and games. But Fang Zheng could not understand the existence of "only love". In Fang Zheng's opinion, the reason why "you are my only one" appeared in reality was entirely because of the existence of monogamy. When reality constrained people's choices, fighting for the only seat became the last choice.

However, Fang Zheng said that he could not understand the plot in the love story where the hero only loved the heroine and rejected all other people's feelings. He could not imagine that such love existed.

“…Haha…”

Hearing this, Kasumigaoka Utaha sighed.

"This is not true love at all..."

"So, what is true love?"

After Fang Zheng raised this question, a long silence fell between the two.

Finally, Kasumigaoka Utaha sighed again.

"I don't know either."

Time passed minute by minute, and by the time Fang Zheng took Kasumigaoka Utaha out of the bar, it was already late at night.

"I...I don't accept it..."

Being supported by Fang Zheng, Kasumigaoka Utaha was still complaining all the way. Her face was flushed and she couldn't even walk properly. She was completely leaning on Fang Zheng...

"How could a fierce and tsundere girl like Sawamura-san be so easy to deal with... Tell me, did you drug her?"

"We are familiar with each other, but I will still sue you for defamation if you continue to talk nonsense like this, miss."

Looking at Kasumigaoka Utaha beside him, Fang Zheng was completely speechless.

"Okay, this is your room, right? Where is the key card?"

Fang Zheng supported the staggering Kasumigaoka Utaha who couldn't even walk, and came to her hotel room. After that, Fang Zheng didn't know what stimulated Kasumigaoka Utaha, and started drinking heavily. The result... naturally, this was the end.

"Wow...how come you're not drunk at all..."

"You'd better give up on getting me drunk."

Fang Zheng was speechless as he watched Kasumigaoka Utaha stumble, stagger, and fall. Although he drank a lot of wine with Kasumigaoka Utaha under her coercion, as a time dragon, how could Fang Zheng be drunk by human wine?

"Not at all, not gentlemanly..."

After finally finding the room card from Kasumigaoka Utaha's bag and opening the door, Fang Zheng then helped Kasumigaoka Utaha into the guest room.

"Come, sit down in the **, I'll pour you a glass of water..."

However, before Fang Zheng could finish his words, Kasumigaoka Utaha suddenly reached out and hugged Fang Zheng's neck, and then the two of them fell into the soft double bed.

"Ms. Kasumigaoka?"

"Call me...Shiyu..."

Looking at Fang Zheng in front of her, a complicated expression appeared on Kasumigaoka Utaha's face.

"I've given up... on that man... I can't get him no matter how hard I try... But I can't accept losing to that fake... arrogant... golden-haired loser..."
