"How could I possibly accept this? We're all eating together, there's no need to talk about serving or not serving!" Qin Kou'er really liked Xiao Xian's gentleness, which made her even more impressed with her.
Xiao Xian waved her hands repeatedly, "No need, Miss, I can really stand! Please enjoy your meal!"
As she spoke, Xiao Xian quickly poured wine for Qin Kou'er.
At this moment, Lan Linxue raised her glass and said with a smile, "Come on, let's raise a glass to Pavilion Master Qin. After all, he has given us so many gifts. We must tell the children to remember to be grateful and repay kindness!"
As she spoke, Lan Linxue turned to look at Qin Kou'er with a smile, and clinked her wine glass against Qin Kou'er's, "A toast to Pavilion Master Qin's compassionate heart!"
After saying that, Lan Linxue looked up and drank the wine directly.
The people below also raised their glasses to toast Qin Kou'er, and then finished their drinks first.
Qin Kou'er looked down at the wine in her glass, thinking about her health, but in this situation, if she didn't drink it, she wouldn't be able to keep up the good look.
Helpless, Qin Kou'er smiled at Lan Linxue, then raised her glass and drank the wine.
As soon as she finished her drink, Qin Kou'er paused for a moment, then quickly turned to look at Xiao Xian.
Xiao Xian smiled slightly at her.
Qin Kou'er glanced quickly at Lan Linxue again, then calmly put down her wine glass and continued eating as if nothing had happened.
After finishing their first drink, the people below began to clink glasses and toast each other.
Although Lan Linxue looked down on Jun Yannuo, it didn't stop others from having a good impression of him. In fact, it could be said that everyone except Lan Linxue thought Jun Yannuo was quite good.
The seventh brother wanted to toast Jun Yannuo, but found that the wine glass in his hand was too small and girly, so he asked someone to change it to a larger glass.
Immediately, the servants brought over a large wine cup, which the seventh brother replaced with his own. He filled the cup and began to toast the emperor with his vows.
For a moment, the scene spiraled out of control. Everyone initially approached Jun Yannuo with respect, offering him a drink. But as they drank, they noticed that Jun Yannuo showed no signs of drunkenness. Gradually, they began deliberately plying him with alcohol, wanting to see just how much he would need to drink to get intoxicated.
At first, Lan Linxue took care of Qin Kou'er's meals, but in the end, he also got involved in the battle.
Since Hai Tian was following Jun Yan Nuo, he naturally joined Jun Yan Nuo in fighting against the "external enemy." In the end, they stopped using the wine jug and started drinking directly from the wine jars, pouring the wine into large bowls.
Even Lan Linxue was gripping her wine bowl, desperately fighting with Jun Yannuo.
Jun Yannuo had long disliked Lan Linxue, and now that he had a chance, he was determined not to let it go. The two of them stood up with their wine bowls, their eyes bloodshot, but they still refused to put them down.
Qin Kou'er sat on the stool, watching the group of men standing there with bowls and jars in their hands. She shook her head helplessly. What kind of situation was this? They had agreed to go see the children soon. Were they really going to go there reeking of alcohol?
Moreover, given their current condition, it's questionable whether they'll even be able to leave soon.
However, she did not intend to offer any advice.
Qin Kou'er always believed that a man should act like a man. Even if he couldn't die on the battlefield, he should still have a chance to be unrestrained.
Qin Kou'er could tell that Lao Qi and Gui Tou were all veterans of the battlefield, and they must have already suffered greatly by being forced to struggle amidst the political intrigues and schemes of Lan Linxue. Why should she spoil their mood when they had such a rare opportunity to drink to their hearts' content?
Moreover, Lan Linxue rarely had such opportunities to indulge herself, so even though Qin Kou'er saw Lan Linxue holding a large bowl and hugging Shuanghua's neck while the two of them drank together, she didn't say anything, but just watched with a slight smile.
When she saw that everyone had almost forgotten about her, she quietly got up, preparing to turn around and go for a walk with Xiaoxian.
As soon as she stood up, Lan Linxue turned around and grabbed her hand tightly: "Where are you going?"
Qin Kou'er smiled slightly and whispered in Lan Linxue's ear, "I've been sitting for too long, I'm a little tired, I'm going to go out and rest for a while! You keep playing!"
Lan Linxue looked at Qin Kou'er with slightly drunken eyes, then whispered to the fairy behind her, "Take good care of Miss Qin."
Then he let go of Qin Kou'er's hand, "Come back soon!"
No sooner had she finished speaking than Shuanghua, standing next to her, grabbed a wine bowl and shoved it into Lan Linxue's mouth, forcing her to drink!
Qin Kou'er looked at it helplessly, then turned to Xiao Xian and said with a soft smile, "Let's go, Xiao Xian, take me out for some fresh air!"
Xiao Xian nodded quickly, then helped Qin Kou'er walk out.
Seeing someone about to touch Qin Kou'er, she immediately shoved them aside with disgust, "A bunch of drunkards! They never know how to behave themselves, and now they're embarrassing themselves in front of our esteemed guests. It's infuriating!"
Qin Kou'er looked at Xiao Xian, smiled slightly, and pretended not to have heard.
Once outside, Qin Kou'er let out a long sigh of relief; the air inside was indeed terrible!
Looking at the flickering candlelight outside, Qin Kou'er turned to Xiao Xian and whispered, "Xiao Xian, why don't we go to the Children's Academy? We came here for the children, after all; we don't want to miss them."
As she spoke, Qin Kou'er nodded and gestured towards the inside, "I don't think we can count on these people tonight. Why don't you come with me to take a look!"
Xiao Xian immediately nodded, "Okay! However, at this hour, the children are probably already asleep!"
Qin Kou'er shook her head slightly: "It's alright. I just want to see if they're living well!"
