"Xiao Zhaozhao, why are you speaking so elegantly on the stage today?" Chu Lichen said, not seeming to care about the answer. He quietly slipped to He Mozhao's side, picked up the Qiongqi on He Mozhao's legs, and held him in his arms. "Let me hold this little tiger. I have wanted to play with it for a long time."
Qiongqi was suddenly caught and began to struggle. There were many people present, so it was not easy for it to speak human words and cause a sensation. It could only open its tiger eyes wide and look at He Mozhao with grievance.
"Cousin, be gentle"
He Mozhao saw that Chu Lichen was having fun and did not follow Qiongqi's wishes, so he could only say something to Chu Lichen helplessly.
Chu Lichen responded with a smile, turned around, carried Qiongqi and went to show off to the group of celebrities.
After showing off, Qiongqi was already in a listless state when he returned to He Mozhao.
As soon as it returned to He Mozhao's arms, Qiongqi struggled to get into his arms until Baili Xiyao slapped it in the face. Then it stopped and lay down obediently, not daring to move again.
"Mr. Mo, I've heard of your great name for a long time. Seeing you today, I'm convinced you're truly extraordinary. I'm here to offer you a toast."
The group of people who were originally chatting and laughing were interrupted by Fan Qi's voice. They all stopped talking and stopped laughing.
The look in Fan Qi's eyes when he looked at He Mozhao was not innocent at all, but it was not disgusting enough to be considered obscene either. However, it was full of calculations, which made people feel uncomfortable. It was a waste of such a strong and upright appearance.
"It seems that the saying that appearance is determined by the heart is not true," Zuo Linyu leaned close to Mu Shaojin's ear and complained softly. The people present had excellent hearing and naturally heard it. Lin Linsen was the first to burst out laughing.
"Mr. Fan," He Mozhao called out lightly, took the orange juice at hand, and without clinking the glass, brought it directly to his mouth and took a sip.
"Boss Mo, are you looking down on me, Fan?" Seeing that He Mozhao only drank orange juice, Fan Qi frowned slightly, hiding his dissatisfaction and pretending to be joking. In his hand, he took a glass of champagne from the waiter who just passed by and handed it to He Mozhao, "You can't drink white wine, you have to drink a glass of champagne, this Louis Roederer is worth a try."
"Hey! I haven't had champagne for a long time. Mr. Fan, if you don't mind, give me this glass." Baili Hanming stood up without knowing when and walked to He Mozhao's side. He stretched out his hand to grab the wine glass, put it under his nose and sniffed it. Then he put the wine glass on the table with disdain and looked at Baili Xiyao, "Yaoyao, you are too stingy. You even use such bad champagne to serve wine?"
After saying that, Baili Hanming looked up at Fan Qi again, "Boss Fan, this wine isn't great. My brother-in-law is too noble to drink it, but since Boss Fan is here in person, it would be a shame not to drink to our heart's content. I think a friend of mine is craving alcohol, so I'd like to invite him over. How about drinking with Boss Fan until we're drunk? Put the money in my account, Baili Hanming, and I'll cover it."
"What a coincidence, Brother Ming, I have a friend who can drink quite well. He was invited here today and I think he can have a good drink with Mr. Fan as well," He Yiling took over Baili Hanming's words, stood up and waved to a person at a table not far away.
"How can I be absent from the drinking matter?"
He Feifei arrogantly asked the waiter to bring a bottle of Moutai. He smiled and approached Baili Hanming. He said to Fan Qi, "Mr. Fan, the alcohol content in your hand is too low. It doesn't match your status. Drink this. I guarantee you will enjoy it."
After saying this, he patted the Moutai bottle like a drunkard and gangster.
In just a few minutes, Fan Qi was surrounded from all sides. Even though Fan Qi was usually calm and composed, his expression showed signs of fatigue at this moment.
Fan Qi closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and opened them again, his lips curved in a formal manner. "Of course I'll accept your kindness, but I have to have a drink with Mr. Mo first."
"Mr. Fan, are you trying to get my brother drunk?" He Yishuang heard Fan Qi was about to drink with his brother when he came back from the phone. He immediately went over to him, but when he saw Fan Qi still holding a glass of wine, his face darkened. "Mr. Fan, are you trying to stay at my place for a few days?"
He Yishuang's words were quite direct. She was the only person present who was legally armed, so Fan Qi was a little hesitant. "Captain He, what are you talking about? How could I possibly force someone to drink? Since President Mo doesn't have any intention, I won't bother you anymore."
Seeing Fan Qi about to leave, He Feifei quickly asked Baili Hanming to hold him back, "Mr. Fan, don't be in a hurry to leave. I've already brought the Moutai. I'll give it to you to drink."
When trying to stuff the Maotai into Fan Qi's hand, He Feifei took the opportunity to push away Baili Hanming's hand holding Fan Qi, as if she thought Fan Qi was not clean, but her action was very generous and no one could find any mistake.
Fan Qi felt frustrated and didn't want to say anything more. He didn't take the Moutai and just left.
"What a pity, no one actually accepts this wine," He Feifei casually put the Moutai on the table, with a look of regret on his face.
After He Yiling whispered a few words to the person he had called over, he saw He Feifei like this and asked curiously, "Sister Fei, what fun things have you done this time?"
Hearing what he said, everyone at the table focused their attention on He Feifei. He Feifei chuckled, "When I arrived today, I saw that bastard Fan Qi. I thought he was going to make trouble, so I asked the waiter to prepare a bottle of Moutai for me in advance. I drank the wine in the bottle, added some fake wine, and mixed it with some laxatives. I thought if he dared to come, I would let him run wild for four or five days. Who knows, it didn't work out."
"A whole bottle of Moutai, Sister Fei, you drank it all?" After listening to this, He Mozhao only focused on that sentence.
"Well, it's just one bottle. I can drink ten or eight bottles too," He Feifei said with a little pride.
"Baby, don't pay attention to her. Since she came of age, she has been famous in the imperial capital for being able to drink a thousand cups without getting drunk." Baili Xiyao, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke. He grabbed Qiongqi's neck with one hand, glanced in the direction of Fan Qi, and motioned Qiongqi to stare at him.
After receiving the order, Qiongqi reluctantly turned invisible and left quickly.
"What does it feel like to drink a thousand cups without getting drunk?" This feeling is probably something He Mozhao will never be able to experience in his lifetime, so he is extremely curious.
“Just like baby drinking orange juice”
Listening to Baili Xiyao's words, He Mozhao imagined it for a moment and muttered, "If I could drink a thousand cups of orange juice, I would be very happy."
"What nonsense are you talking about? If you drink too much orange juice, you will get gout, high blood sugar and kidney stones," Baili Xiyao stretched out her hand and pinched his jade face, scolding him.
"I know, I'm just telling you~", He Mozhao's voice was as soft as a mosquito. He saved his handsome face from Baili Xiyao's hands and rubbed it gently.
He Mozhao stopped rubbing until his face turned a little red and continued chatting with his friends. Baili Xiyao was very quiet throughout the whole process, his whole mind was on the feast to be had in the evening.
At around eight o'clock, the banquet ended and the guests dispersed. He Mozhao, who had hardly sat down since he stood up, walked through the entire venue. Because he was happy, he didn't feel tired.
After everyone had completely dispersed and the elders and friends had left, Baili Xiyao took He Mozhao to the hotel suite she had booked early in the morning.
