A Favor Done, A Husband Won

Chapter 655 - 649: Sweet Extra—Married Couple Variety Show 134

Shi Su glanced at Wei Sinan with a sidelong look, then pointed subtly in Ami’s direction with her chin and said, "If you want to show off, you can too, don’t you think you should seize the opportunity yourself?"Wei Sinan didn’t speak at first and didn’t specifically look at Ami either, but it was obvious that he also put down the beer bottle at the same time.

The look he gave Shi Su seemed to say: You sure have a lot to say.

Shi Su chuckled secretly and was just about to pick up the bottled water when Hao Jin suddenly said, "Hey, Shi Su, that’s not fair. You’re relying on Mr. Jing to back you up, planning to stay sober in this round, huh?"

Before Shi Su could speak, Lihua Auntie spoke slowly, "It’s fine for a young lady to drink less. You big guys drink on your own, don’t drag Shi with you."

"Tsk." Hao Jin immediately quieted down but still had a hint of challenge in his eyes. He then gave Meng Li a look, "Wife, want a bottle?"

"What for? I have to get up early tomorrow. I’ll put on a face mask and sleep soon. It’s rare for me these days to have a good night’s sleep. If I don’t take care of my skin now, my face will crack," Meng Li dismissed him casually.

Hao Jin laughed instantly and pretended to lean over to kiss her, "Let me see, which part is going to crack?"

"Go away, go away!" Meng Li quickly jumped up from her seat, not wanting to sit next to him anymore, and went straight to sit next to Xv Qingqing.

Xv Qingqing looked at them, utterly amused, "Among all of us guests, Hao Jin, you’re the most lively, and only Meng Li can tolerate you."

"Who said I can tolerate him? It’s not like I have other choices," Meng Li sighed as she gave Hao Jin a side glance.

Hao Jin placed one hand on the beer bottle and raised his eyebrows at Meng Li, "What do you mean, no choice? There were plenty of guys chasing you back then, and in the end, you had the discerning eye to choose me."

The whole table burst into laughter, and the clinking of bottles continued.

Shi Su sneakily gave a grateful look to Fang Lihua for speaking up for her earlier.

Fang Lihua smiled without saying much, but she did scoop a bowl of soup not far away and asked Xv Qingqing, who was sitting closer to Shi Su, to help bring it over and place it in front of Shi Su.

After receiving the soup, Xv Qingqing didn’t understand at first. She realized it when she saw Lihua Auntie’s expression. When she turned and placed it in front of Shi Su, she noticed Shi Su was still quietly sitting beside Jing Jihan, clearly planning not to drink any alcohol tonight.

"Really not drinking? Is your stomach still that uncomfortable?" Xv Qingqing asked softly.

Shi Su lightly laughed and shook her head, "No, it’s much better, but I really don’t feel like drinking alcohol."

Luo Fang also leaned over to look at Shi Su and then suddenly said to Jing Jihan, "Is it because Mr. Jing doesn’t let Shi Su drink? With Shi Su’s personality, she wouldn’t be the type to avoid such a situation."

Shi Su secretly glared at Luo Fang and went along with his words, "Just think of me as having a strict husband."

"Exactly! Shi Su hasn’t drunk a drop today, really not blending in with everyone. You see, even Xv Qingqing had two glasses," Hao Jin chimed in again, pointing with his chin at the empty glasses in front of Xv Qingqing.

Just as Shi Su was about to speak, Jing Jihan nonchalantly took away the glass of alcohol that had just been placed in front of her.

"See, I told you, it’s because Mr. Jing doesn’t let her drink," Hao Jin immediately pointed at the silent yet clearly unyielding action Jing Jihan just made.

"Although Shi Su isn’t that physically weak, it’s true she shouldn’t be drinking. I’ll drink for her, three glasses to cover one of hers," Jing Jihan said as he poured himself another glass.
