A muffled thud.
The room fell silent for a few seconds.
After everyone realized what was happening, Qi Ye's laughter was loud enough to lift the roof off.
He was leaning against the door frame, laughing so hard he couldn't straighten up.
Fu Yinyin dropped her golf club and rushed over. Seeing Fu Tingshen clutching his forehead and wearing a pain mask, she said worriedly, "I'm so sorry, should we call an ambulance?"
Fu Tingshen's head was buzzing. When he came to his senses, he hurriedly said, "Why call an ambulance? Jiahe, help me sit down on the sofa. I'm dizzy."
The waiter brought the medicine, and Zhou Jiahe applied it to him, not forgetting to scold him for it: "Serves you right for lying to me. Now you're really hurt, aren't you?"
Even after applying the medicine, Fu Tingshen still got a bump on his head.
Fu Yinyin felt extremely guilty.
Besides Zhou Jiahe, Fu Yinyin was also there to serve him tea and water.
As night fell, a few people had a barbecue on the terrace.
Fu Tingshen said it would be more fun to grill it himself, so he told the waiter to put the ingredients down and then let him leave.
However, Fu Tingshen showed no intention of making a move.
Fu Tingshen sat to the side, taking advantage of the swelling on his head, waiting for the food to be served to him.
Fu Yinyin was busy running around, and everything she baked ended up in Fu Tingshen's mouth. It was only after Tong Yexin and Jiang Lianshu shared the food they baked with her that she was able to eat a few bites.
Qin Yue and Lu Yanci worked together, while Qi Ye looked around at this and that, and no matter how much he ate, he didn't find the food delicious.
He definitely won't come to this kind of event next time.
Tong Yexin handed a glass of beer she had poured to Fu Yinyin: "Look at the pile of beer in front of your cousin. It's enough for him to eat for a while. Take a break."
After taking a sip of slightly cool beer, Fu Yinyin, who was covered in sweat from her busy work, let out a comfortable sigh.
Qi Ye poured himself a glass of wine and then poured one for Lu Yanci: "Today is also the day you officially announced your relationship, so President Lu should at least have a couple of drinks."
Lu Yanci: "I still need to drive."
"Why are you driving? Call your driver and have him pick you up later. It's not easy for us to get together, so let's drink until we drop." Fu Tingshen couldn't sit still any longer and hurriedly said, knowing how rare it was for Lu Yan to refuse a drink.
“Exactly, exactly. If all else fails, we’ll hire a designated driver,” Zhou Jiahe chimed in. “What’s the fun in eating barbecue without drinking? Let’s all drink until we drop today.”
Today was mainly to see her friends, and Lu Yanci didn't want to spoil their fun, so she took the wine glass and drank the wine in it in one gulp.
"Brother Lu is straightforward." Fu Tingshen said, pulling his stool closer to Lu Yanci and pouring him a drink.
Qin Yue watched him down one glass after another, her eyelids twitched, and she leaned closer to him and whispered, "If you really can't drink anymore, then don't."
Lu Yanci squeezed her hand, a hint of intoxication in his eyes.
Looking into her eyes, I saw a tenderness that was even more intoxicating than when she was sober.
His voice became hoarse: "It's nothing."
“What could a little beer do? Come on, fill up Mr. Lu’s glass, and Jiang Lianshu too. You’ve been drinking for ages, why aren’t you coming down?”
Fu Yinyin: "He's a lightweight, I'll drink."
Fu Tingshen mocked his overconfident cousin: "You think you can hold your liquor well?"
To be honest, Fu Tingshen really looked down on this guy surnamed Jiang.
So what if he knows a little kung fu? It's nothing special.
Knowing full well that the little girl is interested in him, yet neither rejecting nor accepting, Tong Yexin still gets so close to him. Who is she planning to play hard to get with?
Tong Yexin placed a glass of wine in front of Jiang Lianshu: "Everyone's drinking, so don't try to be special here. Don't worry, I won't leave you here if you get drunk. I'll find someone to take you home."
As soon as Tong Yexin finished speaking, Jiang Lianshu drank the wine in his cup in one gulp.
Fu Yinyin felt a lump in her throat. Why did he listen to Tong Yexin so much? Feeling uncomfortable, she downed a glass of wine.
Slightly drunk, Qi Ye started talking non-stop.
In order to distract herself from Jiang Lianshu, Fu Yinyin also started chatting about this and that.
Lu Yanci heard a lot about Qin Yue's past from them, some of which he had never been involved in and was unaware of.
By the end, everyone was staggering and unsteady, except for Qin Yue and Tong Yexin who remained relatively sober.
Tong Yexin is a heavy drinker who can drink a lot without getting drunk, Qin Yue has a good alcohol tolerance, and Lu Yanci always pours half of the wine in front of her into his own glass.
Lu Yanci's eyes were glazed over, and he was slow to react when Qin Yue spoke to him.
When the party ended, Fu Yinyin held onto Jiang Lianshu's arm tightly.
"I need you to take me home."
Tong Yexin pulled her close: "It's so late, and you're all drunk. Aren't you afraid your parents will break your legs if they see you having a man take you home?"
Upon hearing this, Fu Yinyin immediately pictured her parents wielding sticks, ready to beat her. She shook her head vigorously.
"Besides, do you think he can even stand up by himself?" Tong Yexin glanced at Jiang Lianshu, who was propping his head up and could barely open his eyes, and pinched Fu Yinyin's soft cheek with one hand. "Be good, I'll take you back."
She wrinkled her nose and pouted in dissatisfaction: "Your face is all swollen from being pinched."
The other person gently rubbed her cheek and said softly, "That's fine."
"Mm." Fu Yinyin nodded in satisfaction.
Tong Yexin gave the waiter Jiang Lianshu's address and asked him to find someone to take him home.
"How did you get his address?" The man, who had been quite drunk, was now much more sober, staring at her with his round eyes.
Tong Yexin raised her eyebrows: "Ask me again when you're sober. Now, shut your mouth, come with me, and don't ask any more questions."
...
Lu Yanci was barely able to walk in a straight line.
Qin Yue gently helped him walk out.
The driver was already waiting outside.
Seeing him stagger out drunk, Miss Qin struggled to support him and quickly went to help.
Lu Yanci avoided his hand.
Once in the car, the driver looked in the rearview mirror and saw Mr. Lu leaning on Ms. Qin's shoulder, and couldn't help but regret his earlier behavior.
With Miss Qin here, there's no need for me to do anything.
Don't even mention that President Lu can walk in a straight line; he can only walk in S-curves. With Miss Qin there, he doesn't need me to help him.
The driver silently raised the barrier.
Seeing Lu Yanci's furrowed brows and uncomfortable appearance, Qin Yue gently massaged his temples. Just as she was about to suggest that he lie down on his side with his head resting on her lap, the driver lowered the partition.
Qin Yue swallowed back what she was about to say.
"Miss Qin, shall I take you home first?"
Qin Yue glanced at the intoxicated Lu Yanci and hesitated whether to take him home first and wait until he sobered up before going back herself. Just then, she heard the driver say, "Don't worry, Miss Qin, I will take good care of Mr. Lu tonight."
Qin Yue replied, "Then please take me home first."
"Miss Qin, you're too kind. It's all I should do."
