Chapter 67: Drunk, One Night
How could Fu Sinian, who was standing by, not notice Jiang Tang's sneaky behavior?
He subconsciously reached out to stop Jiang Tang. After all, it was obvious that Jiang Tang could not hold his liquor well. If he continued drinking, he might get drunk before finishing the meal.
But seeing Jiang Tang drinking like a kitten drinking water, and thinking about what would happen if Jiang Tang got drunk... Fu Sinian's eyes moved, and the hand he had just raised was silently put down.
He tacitly condoned Jiang Tang, and the sinister man appeared again.
After taking a few sips, Liang Kailai seemed to have gained confidence and was finally able to speak.
"Sister-in-law, there's something I've been holding in my heart for five years, and now I can finally tell you, I'm sorry."
"Five years ago, it was my fault. At that time, Captain Fu took a wedding leave to go back and get married. You two should have spent more time together as newlyweds. But I failed in my mission and let the enemy spies slip away right under my nose. Captain Fu had to rush back to participate in the mission in order to clean up my mess."
"It's only your first day of marriage, and the groom ran away, sister-in-law. I know you must be angry, so you've been sulking and refusing to join the army for the past five years, not even showing your child to Captain Fu. I know how you feel, but please don't be angry with Captain Fu. It's my fault. I'll drink a glass as punishment."
Jiang Tang wanted to reach out to stop Liang Kailai, but Liang Kailai drank too quickly and drank the glass in one gulp.
"You..." Jiang Tang could only helplessly remind, "The alcohol content is quite high, drink less. Actually... I'm not that angry."
Speaking of five years ago, that was the original owner after all, Jiang Tang felt a little embarrassed.
She didn't know how to explain it. She never expected that Fu Sinian had a set of strategic logic in his mind, and even Liang Kailai had it too. Jiang Tang didn't need to explain it at all, because they had already thought of a reason for Jiang Tang.
"Impossible! Sister-in-law, I know you must be angry! How can you not be angry about something like this! I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I delayed you for five years." Liang Kailai said with great guilt, and then laughed again. "It's so great to see your family so happy now! So great! Sister-in-law, thank you for not holding a grudge. Come, cheers."
Liang Kailai toasted Jiang Tang again.
Jiang Tang clinked his cup lightly and said, "Let the past be the past. Let's not talk about it anymore."
"Sister-in-law, you are so generous! Okay, I'll listen to you. We won't mention it anymore." Liang Kailai nodded vigorously, then suddenly lowered his voice and leaned closer to Jiang Tang and said, "Sister-in-law, do you have any sisters at home? Any who are still unmarried?"
"Captain Liang, are you considering your lifelong event and want to get married?" Jiang Tang immediately understood what Liang Kailai meant.
Liang Kailai didn't shy away and gave a hearty grin, "I do! Of course I do! It would be best if I could be as pretty as my sister-in-law—no, half as pretty as my sister-in-law, that would be enough. And then have a few children, a wife and children, and a warm bed. Who wouldn't want that!"
Jiang Tang does have a younger sister, but that's Jiang Qinghuan.
After Jiang Qinghuan's family lost their ancestral home and property, they had no way to escape to Hong Kong City. They should have been taken away to the countryside for reform.
Someone like Jiang Qinghuan is not worthy of Liang Kailai at all.
Jiang Tang said directly, "I don't have any sisters or anything like that, but I'm keeping Captain Liang's marriage in mind. If I meet a suitable girl, I'll definitely introduce you to her."
"Sister-in-law, it's a deal. My happiness for the rest of my life depends on you."
"Okay, it's a deal."
Jiang Tang clinked the wine glass in his hand with Liang Kailai's again and took another sip.
She held her chin and thought, it was all her fault for not reading the novel carefully. As an important supporting character, Liang Kailai must have an independent love line. It's a pity that Jiang Tang couldn't remember what Liang Kailai's official partner's name was.
If you don’t remember, then don’t remember. Anyway, as she traveled through time, the story took on a whole new development. Liang Kailai had handsome and heroic features, and he was a soldier with military merits. It must not be difficult for him to find a beautiful girl to marry.
The two of them spoke one sentence after another, one mouthful after another.
Liang Kailai could drink a lot. His highest record was that he knocked out a whole platoon by himself. But it was just a few glasses of liquor, which was nothing for him to drink without any shame or anxiety.
Jiang Tang is different.
Before she knew it, a heat surged to Jiang Tang's cheeks, her delicate and charming face turned red, and her eyes were misty.
Jiang Tang's vision became blurred, and before he realized it, he subconsciously squinted his eyes to look at people.
She revealed her charm unconsciously, and her narrowed eyes seemed to be sending out a wink.
Fu Sinian reminded her at the right time, "Tangtang, you are drunk."
"No—"
Jiang Tang denied it, after all, drunks like to say she is not drunk.
To prove that she was not drunk, Jiang Tang tried to stand up and walk a few steps for Fu Sinian to see.
But she had just stood up when her body began to sway and her head began to spin. Oh no... she was really drunk.
Jiang Tang lost his balance and fell straight into Fu Sinian's arms.
Fu Sinian quickly supported Jiang Tang and said softly, "Tangtang, you are drunk. I will take you back to your room to rest."
Jiang Tang felt dizzy and stopped arguing with Fu Sinian. The man helped her into the room and she lay down on the bed, rubbing her flushed face against the pillow.
Although she was drunk, she was very well-mannered and did not make any noise. She closed her eyes and felt the bed. After finding Fu Sinian's pillow, she put it in her arms, hugged it, and then fell asleep as obediently as a kitten.
Fu Sinian touched Jiang Tang's forehead and made sure that she was just drunk and not nauseous before leaving the room.
As soon as he walked out of the room, he met Liang Kailai's shining eyes and asked with a sharp gaze.
"How is it? Is sister-in-law asleep?"
Fu Sinian frowned slightly and said, "She doesn't drink well, you shouldn't force her to drink.
"Hehe, I forced her to drink, and you didn't stop me." Liang Kailai exposed Fu Sinian's little trick. He moved closer and said in a low voice, "Captain Fu, what do you think of my trick? Is it more effective than changing the bed?"
Several days had passed since the bed-changing incident. Liang Kailai thought about it carefully afterwards, and combined with Fu Sinian's personality, he was able to figure out most of the situation.
Captain Fu, who changed his bed with such a grand ceremony, probably hasn't even gotten to eat the meat yet.
So Liang Kailai came here specially today. His congratulations were genuine, his apology was genuine, and as for...his ill intentions, that was also true.
Liang Kailai nudged Fu Sinian with his elbow. "Captain Fu, I can only help you up to this point. You'll have to work hard on the rest. I think my sister-in-law is a nice person with a good temper. She lives harmoniously in the compound. Just like my sister-in-law said, the past is in the past. Just live a good life with her in peace."
