A Favor Done, A Husband Won

Chapter 656 - 650: Sweet Extras—Husband and Wife on Variety Show 135

Hao Jin laughed and said, "Since Mr. Jing is so sincere, we brothers can’t make things too difficult for Shi Su, so Mr. Jing, please continue drinking."Seeing Hao Jin’s expression like a cat that’s got the cream, it was clear he wasn’t really intent on making Shi Su drink; he was just waiting for Jing Jihan to step in.

He really was trying to challenge Jing Jihan at the drinking table, aiming to see if he could drink down this social butterfly, Mr. Jing, who was accustomed to all sorts of business events.

Jing Jihan picked up a glass, looked at Hao Jin, and chuckled softly, "Does getting me drunk feel that rewarding?"

Hao Jin widened his eyes, saying seriously, "Of course it does!"

Jing Jihan’s long fingers gently caressed the glass, and he sighed with a laugh.

Hao Jin widened his eyes again and said, "I never dared to think that I could drink at the same table as Mr. Jing, even occasionally consider us brothers. If I could get you drunk, it would be a highlight of my life."

"It’s not that exaggerated. We all have different professions and have been dealing with each other for days. From being unfamiliar, we’re now at the point where we can call each other friends. I’ll finish this drink first, and everyone can drink as they please."

After saying this, Jing Jihan downed the glass in one go.

He had been drinking straight from the bottle earlier, and these three glasses were for Shi Su, so after finishing one, without waiting for anyone to speak, he went on to finish the other two glasses cleanly.

Seeing Jing Jihan not even frown after drinking for so long, Shi Su held her chin with one hand, smiling at him while occasionally glancing at the other guests.

At this point, those who wanted to drink were doing so with enthusiasm, and those who wanted to eat didn’t stop their chopsticks.

In front of Shi Su, Aunt Lihua kept bringing her food from time to time. Although Aunt Lihua didn’t say much, it made Shi Su feel a rare sense of care from an elder.

It wasn’t the kind of familial care like Mr. Jing and Grandma Jing’s, but the care and concern of a kind elderly woman who instinctively looked after her upon knowing she was pregnant.

This was something Shi Su didn’t feel when she was pregnant with Mianmian. Recently, she got pregnant again but happened to not return to the Jing Family, so they didn’t know yet.

So the most direct feeling at the moment was Aunt Lihua’s care.

Sitting across the table, Shi Su placed her hands together and nodded slightly toward Fang Lihua to express her gratitude quietly.

Xv Qingqing, noticing this interaction, looked at Shi Su and felt something was off. She vaguely guessed something but didn’t dwell on it as Luo Fang called her over to drink, so she didn’t pay more attention.

Past ten in the evening, everyone was full and satisfied with food and drink. Each took a sleeping bag to sleep on the floor on the first floor, ready to rest.

Fortunately, although no one went to sleep in the bedrooms, the showers in the bedroom bathrooms were comfortable, allowing everyone to take a refreshing bath. Coming out smelling good, they laid into their sleeping bags and chatted on their sides.

Jing Jihan wasn’t drunk at all, but after being encouraged to drink all night, he felt the alcohol a bit. Lying beside Shi Su, he closed his eyes and didn’t speak. Knowing he needed to sleep, Shi Su didn’t disturb him.

Suddenly, Meng Li gently patted Shi Su’s sleeping bag area, gesturing with her mouth for her to check Weibo.

Shi Su picked up her phone, opened Weibo for a look, and found no trending searches. But understanding the cheerful mood of the evening, she instinctively searched Zhang Kerong and Lin Xu’s Weibo accounts.
