Zhu Ling looked at their interactions thoughtfully.
Jing Yao said that they got married by agreement because Liang Xun wanted the child in her stomach. Was that true?
Zhu Ling was puzzled, but Zhu Sui and Shen Yu couldn’t bear to look at him. Liang Xun was really unbearable.
Soon, the dishes added by Zhu Ling were sent into the private room. At the same time, two bottles of baijiu were sent in.
Zhu Sui looked at his sister with a headache. “Drink less. It’s inevitable for you to go out to socialize. I can understand that, but there’s no need to drink today.”
Zhu Ling glared at her brother. “Don’t speak. I didn’t say that I wanted you to drink. I’ll drink with Best Actor Shen and Mr. Liang. Don’t tell me the two of you won’t touch a drop of alcohol like my brother?”
Shen Yu looked at Liang Xun and then at Zhu Ling. For some reason, he felt that this girl did not come with good intentions.
…..
He was the first to smile. “How can that be? If Miss Zhu wants to drink, I’ll definitely accompany you.”
Zhu Ling smiled and raised her eyebrows at Liang Xun. “Mr. Liang, what about you?”
“Lingling.” Before Liang Xun could speak, Jing Yao spoke first.
Zhu Ling looked at her, and Jing Yao gave her a look secretly.
Zhu Ling understood what she meant. She didn’t want her to make Liang Xun drink. Jing Yao’s heart ached for him. Zhu Ling expected better from her.
Zhu Ling was displeased. A little white rabbit like Jing Yao would only be eaten up by a big bad wolf like Liang Xun. Look, it had only been a short while, and Jing Yao was already protecting him.
“Mr. Liang, can you drink?” Zhu Ling had to get Liang Xun drunk tonight. Otherwise, she really couldn’t take it lying down. She trusted Liang Xun so much back then. Knowing that he was her brother’s good buddy, she trusted him with Jing Yao.
Liang Xun could actually understand Zhu Ling’s thoughts. He knew that Zhu Ling had helped Jing Yao a lot in the past, so he nodded. “Of course.”
Jing Yao was on the brink of tears. She didn’t want Liang Xun to drink the most. She couldn’t handle the drunk Liang Xun.
“Do you really want to drink?” Jing Yao leaned close to Liang Xun and asked him softly.
Jing Yao’s thoughts were written all over her face. Liang Xun saw through her at a glance. A smile flashed across his eyes and he said in a low voice, “You don’t want me to drink? But Zhu Ling is your best friend. Will she be unhappy if I don’t drink?”
Jing Yao glanced at Zhu Ling. Zhu Ling rolled up her sleeves and looked like she was ready to fight. She might indeed be unhappy if she stopped her now.
Jing Yao had no choice but to compromise. However, she refused to give up. “Then drink less.”
Liang Xun smiled and nodded. He was amused by the girl’s conflicted and cute expression. He pretended to be confused and asked, “Did I do anything to make you unhappy after 1 got drunk last time?”
Hearing his question, Jing Yao instantly remembered that Liang Xun was drunk not long ago. Her face slowly started to burn. She lowered her eyes and didn’t dare to look at Liang Xun. She whispered, “Don’t you remember what you did when you were drunk?”
Liang Xun’s smile was about to overflow from his eyes. He held back his laughter and said in a slightly troubled tone, “I don’t remember. Unless someone helps me recall, 1 might be able to remember if you’re willing to remind me.”
Jing Yao’s face was as red as blood. She stepped back a little and thought to herself, Who wants to help you recall such an awkward thing?
“You were quite quiet after you got drunk. You didn’t do anything,” Jing Yao said calmly with a flushed face.
Liang Xun’s heart was about to melt. Such a wifey was too cute.
Zhu Ling still didn’t know that she had given Liang Xun a chance to get close to Jing Yao for nothing. She poured the liquor for Liang Xun one glass after another. As Jing Yao’s manager, she interacted with all kinds of people and drinking was a compulsory course. She had specially practiced it and could be considered an expert among girls.
After finishing the two bottles of baijiu, Liang Xun leaned on Jing Yao’s shoulder quietly.
Shen Yu’s eyes wandered and he couldn’t help but glance at Zhu Ling.
Zhu Ling still looked very calm, as if she was drinking plain water instead of liquor, but in fact, she just did not show it on her face. Her mind was already in a mess.
Every time she drank, she would hold her breath and set a goal for herself. Once she achieved her goal, she would pass out in peace.
Her goal today was to get Liang Xun drunk. Seeing that Liang Xun was unconscious, she smiled, and her cold and calm expression was replaced by a silliness.
She looked at Liang Xun smugly. “Jerk, to think I trusted you so much back then and even handed Yaoyao to you to take care of.”
“…” Liang Xun, who was focused on pretending to be drunk..
