Chen Shanhe paused holding the wine glass and raised his eyelids to look at Jiang Shiyue.
Jiang Shiyue looked at him with her big eyes, which were clearly black and white, with a hint of unconscious concern in her curiosity.
In the end, Chen Shanhe said nothing and drank the wine in the glass.
The white wine glass he used was a bit like a miniature version of the red wine glass, except that the red wine glass was made of transparent glass while the white wine glass was made of white porcelain.
Chen Shanhe didn't answer, and Jiang Shiyue didn't get angry. Instead, she felt that she had crossed the line.
After all, the two of them are just a plastic couple.
Everyone has secrets that they don't want to tell.
The atmosphere in the room was slightly awkward.
Jiang Shiyue was about to get up and leave when Chen Shanhe suddenly spoke.
"I was grounded."
Jiang Shiyue bit the steel wire that skewered the meat, and she frowned in pain.
Was he speaking suddenly to scare her to death so he could inherit her huge fortune?
The joking words were swallowed back when he saw Chen Shanhe's depressed expression.
Someone happened to knock on the door.
It’s Mengmeng’s family of three.
Chen Shanhe closed the floodgates of his heart again and lowered his head to drink.
Jiang Shiyue felt a little regretful, but still greeted people with a smile.
Xu Rushan was the last one to enter. He pointed at Chen Shanhe and said to Mengmeng's mother, "See, I knew he would drink secretly."
Mengmeng's mother glared at Xu Rushan coquettishly, put the plate she was carrying on the square table, and asked Jiang Shiyue, "Sister-in-law, Old Xu said he couldn't have a good time eating, so he had to come to you. Should we join in?"
"I couldn't ask for more." Jiang Shiyue said hurriedly, "Barbecue is fun when there are many people eating together."
Chen Shanhe didn't say anything, stood up and took another wine glass and handed it to Xu Rushan.
Two families with six people.
Chen Shanhe and Xu Rushan sat across the table from each other, Mengmeng and Yangyang sat side by side on a bench, Jiang Shiyue and Mengmeng's mother sat next to each other opposite Yangyang, and on the other side of them were their men.
Mengmeng's mother leaned close to Jiang Shiyue's ear and whispered, "Our Lao Xu said that Chen Ying would be in a bad mood when he returned. He insisted on coming to drink with Chen Ying! He even specially switched posts with the deputy battalion commander."
Jiang Shiyue thought that the friendship between comrades was iron-clad, unlike her fake wife.
Xu Rushan didn't actually say anything, he just accompanied Chen Shanhe to drink.
They hardly eat meat and only drink alcohol.
One cup after another.
The liquor they drank was grain liquor brewed in a military factory. It had a high alcohol content of 52°. After a while, Xu Rushan's eyes became a little dazed.
Chen Shanhe's eyelashes were long and thick, covering his eyes. Jiang Shiyue couldn't see his eyes and didn't know if he was drunk too.
"Chen Shanhe." Xu Rushan suddenly spoke, his tongue a little thick. "It's been three years. Why don't you submit an application and try again?"
Chen Shanhe shook his head.
Xu Rushan slammed the table and stood up, "Chen Shanhe, we all hate Yao Tengfei, but actually you are just like him!"
Jiang Shiyue was startled and looked up at Xu Rushan.
Mengmeng's mother gently covered her heart with her hand and patted Xu Rushan's arm with her other hand. "I scared you to death! Why are you acting so drunk for no reason?"
Yangyang on the opposite side covered Mengmeng's ears, looked at Chen Shanhe and then at Xu Rushan, jumped off the bench, pulled Mengmeng into the inner room and closed the door.
Jiang Shiyue: “…”
Xu Rushan was indifferent to the surrounding movements. After being hit by Mengmeng's mother, he just scratched his arm and continued to point at Chen Shanhe and scold him: "Don't be fooled by your usual brotherly attitude towards us! In fact, you are just like Yao Tengfei in your bones. Your heart is not in the repair camp! Don't think I don't know that every time a fighter jet is delivered, you always go up to stay for a while..."
Xu Rushan burped as he spoke.
"Since you like being a pilot so much, why don't you go back?"
"Yao Tengfei is right, Chen Shanhe, you're just a coward!"
"Chen Shanhe, if you're a man, just speak up! You... no, you definitely wouldn't tell me if you didn't treat me as a brother! But, I treat you as a brother, and I hope you can do what you like."
“…”
Chen Shanhe remained silent from beginning to end.
Xu Rushan became more and more excited as he spoke. He stood up, leaned over, grabbed Chen Shanhe's collar with both hands and pulled him towards himself.
Chen Shanhe didn't fight back, just sat there motionless.
Xu Rushan was drunk and his hands were weak. "Chen Shanhe, are you a man? Playing dumb and deserting is not a manly thing to do. Just tell me if you want to go back! As long as you say you want to, brothers will find a way together. What kind of man are you if you keep deserting?"
"Yes, this isn't the first time you've been unmanly! It was the same when you got married. A grown man over 5 feet tall lets a woman run wild and make the family compound uneasy without even a fart. Are you really unable to handle her? No, you just don't care about her and treat her like an ant. It's almost the same as you treat us brothers. None of us have entered your heart! That's why you never tell us when you have something on your mind."
Jiang Shiyue: “…”
Mengmeng's mother apologized repeatedly in embarrassment: "Sister Shiyue, don't take it to heart! Our Lao Xu loves to talk nonsense when he's drunk."
Can Jiang Shiyue argue with a drunkard? No.
Besides, the original owner was really a worthless person.
She shook her head and said, "It's okay."
Mengmeng's mother dragged Xu Rushan out and said, "You don't even know your last name after drinking two cups of cat urine! Go home quickly."
"Let me go!" Xu Rushan refused to leave. "I haven't finished talking yet!"
"What are you talking about? You'll hit your head against the wall when you wake up tomorrow!" Mengmeng's mother was so angry that she pulled Xu Rushan into the inner room and called Mengmeng to go home.
After seeing off Mengmeng and her family of three, Jiang Shiyue saw Chen Shanhe still drinking. She hesitated for a moment, but did not stop him and took Yangyang to the bathroom to take a shower.
Although the alcohol content of the wine brewed by their military factories is high, it will not make people feel uncomfortable or cause hangovers.
It's okay to drink too much, right?!
Jiang Shiyue and Yangyang came back from taking a shower, and Chen Shanhe was sitting at the table, not knowing what he was thinking.
There were already two empty bottles of wine on the table.
Chen Shanhe only has these two bottles of wine.
Jiang Shiyue coaxed Yangyang to sleep, dug out the wine she had bought from the city, and placed it on the table. "Want to drink more?"
Chen Shanhe heard the noise and looked up at her.
The pupils of his eyes were very dark, like a bottomless ink well.
It seemed darker now, but unusually clear, with a hint of confusion and grievance.
"Jiang Shiyue."
Chen Shanhe suddenly spoke.
Jiang Shiyue hummed, put the wine on the table, and sat down opposite him. "What's wrong?"
"We haven't had a proper conversation since we got married. Want to go out for a walk and chat today?"
Jiang Shiyue was stunned and neither agreed nor objected.
The main thing was Chen Shanhe’s condition. She didn’t know whether he was drunk or sober.
Xu Rushan was drunk and his tongue was thick, but Chen Shanhe looked too sober.
Chen Shanhe didn't really want Jiang Shiyue to answer, so he stood up and walked out.
Jiang Shiyue followed him out, afraid that he would fall.
However, Chen Shanhe walked in a straight line.
But Jiang Shiyue still felt that he was drunk.
After all, due to Chen Shanhe's previous profession, his ability to resist dizziness is very strong.
