Bo Chengcheng’s smile faded a little at the thought of Jiang Yeqing.
It had been a long time since she last saw him.
Just the fact that the woman was pregnant was enough to make him throw himself all over her.
Now that she had given birth to his son, Jiang Yeqing was nowhere to be seen.
Initially, she thought that since it was the New Year, he would take her feelings into account.
Indeed, things were no longer the way they were.
Bo Chengcheng glanced over and saw that Li Beinian and Mu Xichen were sitting next to each other. The two of them seemed to be so together.
It wasn’t as though they were physically stuck together, but the way they looked at each other so lovingly was like a manifestation of the strong ties between them.
Bo Chengcheng looked away and shifted her gaze to Yang Dawu, asking, “Do you have a cigarette?”
Yang Dawu was a little surprised and shook his head. “No. You smoke?”
Bo Chengcheng did not affirm or deny, but smiled and asked again, “Are you soldiers trained by Leader Mu all so self-disciplined?”
“This isn’t self-discipline.” Yang Dawu felt that she was really too beautiful – mature and charming, only… she seemed to be in a bad mood today.
Seeing that she did not answer, he thought for a moment and added, “I just don’t have this hobby.”
“Hmmm… that’s pretty good.” Bo Chengcheng leaned back on the sofa and adjusted her glasses. “It’s so good to be young.”
She looked in the direction of Bai Yuan and Cheng Su as she made this remark.
Bai Yuan was sitting next to Cheng Su. While playing the game, he didn’t forget to protect her, constantly reminding the rest, “Su Su is a decent girl. Don’t scare her.”
“…”
“You guys, take it easy. If Su Su loses, I’ll take the rap for her!”
“…”
“Hey, get lost. You’re deliberately targeting Su Su. Are you a gentleman!”
“…”
Of course, Cheng Su could clearly sense that she was being protected.
Initially, she downed two glasses of beer.
But before long, she became a little tipsy.
After two glasses, Bai Yuan took the alcohol on her behalf.
It had to be said, although Bai Yuan usually appeared carefree, the way he took the alcohol on behalf of Cheng Su was quite manly.
Cheng Su couldn’t help sneaking a few glances at him. She was blushing lightly, but who knew if it was from shyness or the alcohol.
Bo Chengcheng was not the only one who noticed this.
Li Beinian saw it too. She pursed her lips and teased him. Soon, she started to persuade the others to trap Bai Yuan and Cheng Su.
Cheng Su pushed her cards away anxiously and said, “I’m not playing anymore. I keep losing. Bai Yuan is going to die from too many drinks!”
“It’s fine.” Bai Yuan said with a wave of his hand. “I have room for more drinks still. Don’t underestimate me, I’m one of the top five drinkers in our team!”
“Really?”
“It’s true. Don’t be deceived by how tall and strong Brother Yang looks. In fact, one glass of beer will knock him out!”
Yang Dawu was indignant at being targeted. “Get lost, don’t drag me into this. You know I can’t hold my liquor, yet you’re laughing at me!”
“Hahaha!”
“The one best at holding his drink is probably Ah Ye!”
“No, not me. That’ll be Boss.” Gu Mingye put down his glass and said seriously, “The last time Mu Donglin had a drinking competition with Boss, it was ten bottles of Whiskey…”
Gu Mingye started to brag while everyone looked at Mu Xichen in disbelief.
Mu Xichen continued to drink calmly.
Unexpectedly, Gu Mingye chuckled and said meaningfully, “But I must say, Boss is impressive. The day after he got drunk, he carried Sister-in-law off to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get married!”
“Tsk tsk!”
A look of realization spread across the men’s faces as they started cheering.
“That’s violence under intoxication!”
