Li Zheng was so angry at Ning Qianqian's sarcastic remarks that his face turned red and then pale.
"Li Zheng, why aren't you saying anything?"
"Everyone, eat more. It's rare to have such expensive dishes. I don't usually order them. I have to say, these dishes are really delicious."
"Of course, these dishes are all quite expensive. Li Zheng, you're not going to run away later and leave me to pay the bill, are you? I don't have that much money."
"How could that be! Do you think I, Li Zheng, am that kind of person? You, on the other hand, should prepare your money first, lest you can't come up with it, I won't pay your bill!"
"Don't worry, even if I can't pay, I have my girlfriend, Mengmeng, to pay for me!"
Liu Qingmeng is like a beautiful flower beside Wang Xinghe, but she is definitely not just a pretty face; she always steps up when it matters.
"Yes, even if you want this hotel, I will buy it for you."
"Bullshit! Can you stop bragging? You two, do you even know how much this hotel is worth? And you even bought it."
"Then you don't need to worry about it."
For the first time, Li Zheng felt like he was sitting next to a pretty but useless vase. He was tired of it anyway, so he might as well find a chance to kick it out.
After making up his mind, Li Zheng took the wine and went to the next table to offer a toast.
As Li Zheng took the lead, the classmates who usually got along well also started drinking with each other.
Everyone was eager to drink more, and even classmates who had never drunk alcohol before wanted to try some. A bottle of wine that costs tens of thousands of yuan was considered a bargain.
"Xinghe, I was wrong when we were in school, I deliberately targeted you, now I'll toast you!" A classmate walked over with a glass of wine.
Wang Xinghe clinked glasses with him, and the two drank it all in one gulp.
"Everyone, don't drink too much, just enjoy yourselves," Teacher Lu advised.
“We know, Teacher Lu, you should drink to your heart’s content. Here, let me toast you.”
Teacher Lu's words unexpectedly attracted the students' attention, and they kept drinking cup after cup. After a round, Teacher Lu couldn't take it anymore.
"Mengmeng, let's have a drink too." Ning Qianqian raised her glass.
"Mengmeng, please stop drinking." Wang Xinghe put down Liu Qingmeng's wine glass. Every time he drank too much, Wang Xinghe would face a major test. If this continued, someone would die.
"What's it to you if I'm drinking with Mengmeng! Go away!"
"Ning Qianqian, Mengmeng can't drink alcohol. If you keep doing this, I'll call your dad to come pick you up if you get drunk."
"Wang Xinghe, you're ruthless!"
"Okay, Xingxing, I'll just have a little, I won't drink too much. Besides, Qianqian mentioned it, so let me have a little."
Upon hearing Liu Qingmeng's request, Wang Xinghe thought for a moment and agreed. With him watching over her, Liu Qingmeng wouldn't drink much.
"You guys keep eating, I'm going to the restroom."
"Go on, go on, you're finally gone. Come on, Mengmeng, let's have a drink!"
After Wang Xinghe finished using the restroom, he was about to go back when he saw a woman in the hallway outside who looked drunk, leaning against the wall with her back bent.
Wang Xinghe walked over and saw that it was Shi Yue.
"Shi Yue, are you alright?"
"Wang, Wang Xinghe, can you do me a favor and take me to this room?"
Shi Yue deliberately tugged at the front of her clothes, trying to lean against Wang Xinghe.
Wang Xinghe quickly dodged, and Shi Yue missed her target.
"Stay here and don't move. I'll go call Li Zheng for you."
"No! Don't call him, just the two of us, okay?"
"Shi Yue, are you sick in the head?!"
"I'm not sick! The person I've always loved is you! I don't like Li Zheng! I'm sorry, I just lied to you. Let's be together, okay? I know you love me too, right?"
"No, Shi Yue, didn't I make it very clear to you in high school that I don't like you? I didn't like you before, and I won't like you in the future. So, I'll pretend that what happened today never happened. You can go back now."
"Wang Xinghe! Why, why don't you like me? Is it because I'm not pretty? I can tell that your girlfriend is fake, right? She's not your girlfriend, there's no intimacy between you two at all!"
“Not every couple will do intimate things in front of others. My girlfriend is quite shy and doesn’t like to show it in front of others. Li Zheng is a good guy. You can live a good life with him.”
"He doesn't like me, he only likes my body, and he'll throw me away after he's had his fun."
"So, don't just think about being a pretty face. Don't you want to be a star? Strive to develop in that direction. Consider this my advice to you."
After saying that, Wang Xinghe left without lingering.
"Wang Xinghe, I hate you!"
Wang Xinghe didn't even turn his head, pretending he hadn't heard anything.
When I came back, good heavens! I had only been gone for a short while, and there was already a bottle of baijiu (Chinese liquor) in front of the two of them. It seemed they had already started drinking.
"Come on, Mengmeng, let's have another drink!"
Liu Qingmeng's face was flushed, and her eyes were somewhat dazed. She held the wine glass and was about to put it to her lips.
Wang Xinghe snatched the wine glass away.
"Huh? You're back? What were you doing? Qianqian and I have been drinking for so long, and you're only just getting back?"
"You even know that you guys have been drinking for a long time, and how much you've drunk."
"I only drank a little bit, just a little bit. You can ask Qianqian if you don't believe me."
"Yeah, we only had a little bit. Wang Xinghe, why are you yelling at me! Come on, Mengmeng, ignore her, let's keep drinking!"
"Stop drinking! No more drinking!" Wang Xinghe snatched Ning Qianqian's wine glass away as well.
"Wang Xinghe, you're really nosy! Fine, I won't drink then, I can't just eat my vegetables!"
"Mengmeng, how are you? Are you drunk?"
"I'm not drunk! I'm not drunk at all, I can still drink!"
"Alright, Mengmeng, you're drunk. Why don't you lie down here and rest for a bit?"
“Then I’m going to lie here!” Liu Qingmeng said, pointing to Wang Xinghe’s legs.
"Mengmeng, there are so many classmates and teachers here, why don't you just climb on the table?"
"No, the table is dirty. I don't want to climb on it. I want to lie here." With that, Liu Qingmeng was already lying down. Wang Xinghe thought to himself, "Fine, I'll lie down then. At least I can sleep and behave myself."
"Huh? Where's Mengmeng?" Ning Qianqian noticed that Liu Qingmeng had suddenly disappeared.
"It's all your fault. You've already fallen asleep on my lap."
"Oh, you fell asleep so quickly? How come you can't hold your liquor?"
"I think you're about ready too."
"I'm not that easily drunk! I was faking it; I'm not drunk at all!"
Wang Xinghe was too lazy to argue with a drunk person, so he simply shut up and ate.
Liu Qingmeng lay on Wang Xinghe's lap like a kitten, breathing warm air, making Wang Xinghe's heart itch.
