Chapter 588 – Questions
Although the district was not as big as other bigger towns, and the population was less than 20,000 people, there were still restaurants and small hotels.
This restaurant was newly opened this year. It was a small restaurant run by a husband and wife team, with some of their relatives helping out. Because there were not many restaurants in the district, this restaurant’s business was doing well.
When Feng Yu and the rest arrived, 4 out of the 6 tables in the restaurant was occupied. The 3 of them sat down, and Wen Dongjun ordered 6 dishes.
Liu Jichuan frowned. How could 3 people eat so much? But he had said that he will be treating them, and he did not say anything. After retiring from service, his family was better off and had some savings.
But little does he knows that Wen Dongjun and Feng Yu have no intentions of asking him to treat. All this while, if they went to bigger restaurants, Feng Yu would be paying. If they ate at smaller restaurants, Wen Dongjun would pay for their meal. Today Wen Dongjun will be paying, so he was the one ordering.
“Beer or Baijiu?” Wen Dongjun looked at Feng Yu. He knows Feng Yu could not hold his liquor well. But Feng Yu had suggested drinking. Wen Dongjun wants to take this opportunity to make Feng Yu drunk.
“I have just returned and is still feeling car sick slightly from the long journey. I think beer will do. Dongjun, you order some Baijiu for you and Brother Chuan. Boss, 1 bottle of 60% alcohol Baijiu and a bottle of beer.” Feng Yu shouted.
Wen Dongjun snickered. Carsick? This was the first time I heard someone getting car sick when driving!
Just say you can’t drink. 1 bottle of beer and you still dare to order?!
Liu Jichuan did not say anything. The boss of the restaurant served a plate of peanuts and liquor. Feng Yu immediately raise his glass.
Feng Yu finished his glass of beer: “I had a bottom up. You all just carry on.”
Wen Dongjun glanced at Feng Yu. Damn. You have a beer, and you want to bottom up with us? You try to finish a glass of Baijiu yourself. I am sure the next moment you are sleeping under the table!
But Wen Dongjun saw Feng Yu giving him a signal with his eyes. Both of them had grown up together, and Wen Dongjun immediately knows what Feng Yu was up to. Feng Yu wants to make Liu Jichuan drunk.
Wen Dongjun thought Feng Yu was trying to prank Liu Jichuan, but what Feng Yu actually wanted was to make Liu Jichuan talk after he was drunk.
Liu Jichuan saw Feng Yu had bottom ups and Wen Dongjun hesitated for a while before taking in a big gulp and drinking almost a third of his glass.
These two were Liu Jichuan’s first friends he met after he retired from service. He did not say anything and also drank a big mouthful. The stinging and burning feeling could be felt from his mouth to his stomach. Liu Jichuan immediately ate a few peanuts to make himself feel better.
After Feng Yu finished his glass of beer, he ate a few peanuts too.
“Brother Chuan, you can really drink. Today, we must drink more.” Wen Dongjun was surprised when he saw the way Liu Jichuan drank.
Liu Jichuan was cursing himself in his heart. If he knew, he should just take a small sip. He was in the military for a few years and other than New Year, he was not allowed to drink alcohol. The only time he got drunk was the day before he retires from service.
Liu Jichuan’s family was poor before he joined the military. He does drinks once in a while but has never got drunk before. As a former soldier, he had high ego and pride. He does not like to look down by others. Even if he can’t drink, he must also put up a brave front. Seems like today will be the second time in his life to get drunk.
“Yes. We must drink our fill today. Xiao Yu, you must also drink more.” Liu Jichuan said.
“Of course. I will surely drink more. Oh, the dishes are served. Here, one more glass.” Feng Yu raises his glass again and immediately finishes it.
Wen Dongjun did not say a word and finishes half his glass. After having two big mouthfuls of Baijiu, he felt he could not take it anymore. Usually, Wen Dongjun could finish about 300 ml of this 60% alcohol Baijiu. But today, they were drinking too fast. Liu Jichuan was worse than him. His face was flushed.
After that, Feng Yu purposely slow down their speed of drinking and keep telling Wen Dongjun to slow down. As if Wen Dongjun was the one trying to make Liu Jichuan drunk.
Wen Dongjun stepped on Feng Yu’s feet under the table. You are the one who asked me to make him drunk. Now, you are trying to be the good guy?
But Wen Dongjun did not know that Feng Yu was trying to catch Liu Jichuan unaware. If they were too obvious, Liu Jichuan might stop drinking with them.
Feng Yu had learned this trick from his Brother-in-law. He had learned this to make Kirilenko drunk. But it seems that this was also useful against Liu Jichuan.
Wen Dongjun and Liu Jichuan ate very fast when all the dishes were served. It was not that they were hungry. They wanted to suppress the alcohol in their stomach. Feng Yu ate slowly. The food in this small restaurant was actually delicious.
After Feng Yu had finished his bottle of beer, Wen Dongjun and Liu Jichuan had also finished their bottle of Baijiu.
“Lady boss, one more bottle of Baijiu and beer.” Feng Yu ordered.
Wen Dongjun was at his limits. He looked at Feng Yu. Why were they still drinking? Can’t you see that Liu Jichuan was almost gone? He might vomit if he swallows one more sip!
Feng Yu happily filled their glasses. He was very good at pouring drinks for others.
“Come, Brother Chuan, it’s really been a long time since we met. I will give you a toast.” Feng Yu shamelessly said and finishes his glass of beer. It was only two bottles of beer, and he knew he would not get drunk.
Liu Jichuan forced himself to take a sip of Baijiu. He gasped for air after that. He was trying to keep sober.
“Brother Chuan, do you still remember the 3 of us went hunting?” Feng Yu asked.
Wen Dongjun excitedly said: “Yes. I had even hunted a beer!”
Feng Yu rolled his eyes. Was that your credit? If it weren’t for Liu Jichuan, both of them would be killed by that bear!
Liu jichuan’s face was all red and replied: “Of course. How could I forget it?”
Feng Yu looked at Liu Jichuan’s eyes and could see he recalled the events of that day. But Liu Jichuan was too drunk, and Feng Yu could not tell if he had something to hide.
“Dongjun, do you have any cigarettes? No? Can you help me buy a pack?”
Wen Dongjun was confused. I am a non-smoker, why would I be carrying a pack of cigarettes with me? Oh, it must be for Brother Chuan.
Wen Dongjun walked out of the restaurant to buy cigarettes. Feng Yu looked around him, and all the customers there were drinking. Other than the lady boss who was sitting at the cashier, he was the soberest person in the restaurant. The cashier was quite far from where they were seated, and the place was noisy from the sound of the kitchen and other customers talking loudly.
“Brother Chuan, I have a question in my heart which I wanted to ask you. If I had not followed you all for that hunt, can Wen Dongjun return safely?”
