Chapter 94 Today's Victory or Defeat
Chapter 94 Today's Victory or Defeat
Under the bright lights, Lu Mingfei was bent over and sprawled on the table, looking completely disheveled.
The shadow of his bangs was like a light veil, but it couldn't hide his bright eyes.
If it were Fingel, he would definitely take three or five photos and sell them to some girls in his cute puppy-like pose to raise funds.
But the person sitting across the table right now is Susie.
She was trying to figure out how to sew Lu Mingfei's school uniform pants back on.
Counterintuitively, Susie, who seems like a virtuous wife and loving mother, is actually not good at sewing, while the boisterous Nono is much better at it.
Because Susie was just an ordinary rich girl, she never had the opportunity to use this skill growing up.
On the contrary, Nono, a young lady from a prominent family, had systematically learned this traditional craft.
Nuonuo even celebrates the Qixi Festival every year, showing great respect for traditional culture.
However, Nono went for a drive tonight.
So Susie had no choice but to borrow Nuonuo's needle and thread to try and sew Lu Mingfei's school uniform pants back on.
The reason I say "trying" is because she is really not good at this technique. Although it's not exactly painful, the sewing is exceptionally slow.
Moreover, the way Lu Mingfei was lying there was particularly eye-catching.
It looks just like a big, dark-colored golden retriever with a lot of mischievous thoughts.
Right now, his eyes are darting around, scanning her dorm room.
Lu Mingfei's eyes swept over the whiskey on Susie's bed before settling on the jar of liquor.
Susie is quite efficient; she bought the wine as soon as she finished talking about it in the afternoon.
However, Lu Mingfei is having dinner with Ling tonight, and Susie plans to meet him again tomorrow.
At this moment, Lu Mingfei stared intently at the jar of wine, and Susie, seeing him like that, felt like she was about to drool.
This made her chuckle and say something.
"Hehe, drink it if you want. I bought it for you anyway."
Upon hearing this, Lu Mingfei didn't mince words. He opened the jar of wine, took out a small cup, and drank the wine in a rather refined manner.
As he drank, he frowned, and suddenly remembered what Angers had told him.
Susie observed him, unsure of what was going on.
"What's wrong? Is it not to your taste?"
Lu Mingfei shook his head, staring at the clear liquid in his hand.
Why was he drinking like that?
Drinking alcohol can indeed temporarily relieve one from the control of fate and improve one's physical condition.
But that's not the kind of drinking you need to do.
All you need to do is be in a state of drinking.
That's why Guan Yu famously killed Hua Xiong with a cup of wine; if you really wanted that state, one cup would have been enough.
It seems that he's been like this ever since he discovered that he's gradually adapted to alcohol without getting drunk.
It was as if fate did not want him to temporarily forget what he had been going through by drinking, thus preventing him from drowning his sorrows in alcohol.
So all he had left to do was repeat the act of drinking, no wonder the principal asked him if he didn't like drinking.
He suddenly felt a tightness in his throat, then thought for a moment, poured himself a glass of wine, and drank it down.
However, when a person's emotions fluctuate, it can not only cause a tightness in the throat, but also affect the food they eat—
"This wine is sour..."
Lu Mingfei lowered his eyes, his eyelashes casting shadows over them, and spoke with a sigh.
"Oh? This wine tastes sour?"
Susie looked curiously at the drinks in Lu Mingfei's hand.
She bought a jar, and considering the quantity, the price was quite economical.
Lu Mingfei shrugged and placed his wine glass on the table.
"Just try it."
As he spoke, he reached into his pocket to pull out a new wine glass—
"It tastes really good; maybe I can switch my whiskey for this."
Susie took a sip from Lu Mingfei's glass and nodded in agreement. It was really delicious; no wonder Lu Mingfei liked it so much.
Then she saw Lu Mingfei looking at her, and then at the cup in her hand.
The mist above formed the outline of her lips, which was now slowly dissipating.
"Uh...it's yours."
Lu Mingfei pushed away the cup Susie offered and spoke instead.
It seems too disgusting to take it home and wash it, and it seems a bit too heavy to drink it directly, so you might as well just give it away.
Susie's expression wasn't very pleasant. She pouted as if she were angry, like a pufferfish, and said unhappily.
"What, you're disgusted with me? I just sewed clothes for you, and now you think I've defiled your wine glass?"
Lu Mingfei is not holding back. How come there is still defilement here? Lu Bu and Diao Chan, right? They defile each other in this area.
He quickly spoke up.
"Oh no, no, you are the vice president of the Lionheart Society, how could you possibly defile me?"
"I am?"
Oh no, I just blurted out what I called myself earlier.
Lu Mingfei didn't think much of it and refilled his glass without hesitation, ignoring all the toasts and celebrations.
"I won't stand on ceremony."
Then he drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.
Susie nodded. The pants were almost finished being sewn. She got up and took a cup from the bedside table.
This is the glass she usually uses to drink whiskey.
So, under Lu Mingfei's gaze that seemed to say, "Don't you have a glass?", she poured herself a glass of wine and then smiled as she spoke.
"Aren't you going to clink glasses with me?"
"Bang!"
The crisp sound of glass clinking together made Susie, who felt the wine tasted really good, decide to have a good drink with Lu Mingfei.
This liquor doesn't taste like alcohol at all, so I guess the alcohol content isn't very high. I usually drink whiskey, though.
Thinking about this, Susie inexplicably felt confident that she could rival Lu Mingfei.
So when I saw Lu Mingfei drink it all in one gulp, what else was there to say? He drank it all in one gulp, so I drank it all in one gulp too!
...........
When Nono returned to her dormitory, she was greeted by a very abstract scene.
Lu Mingfei sat at the dining table in their dormitory with his school uniform pants in hand, looking helpless.
Across from me at the dining table was Susie, who was slumped over the table. Although she wasn't snoring, her breathing was quite heavy.
Nono could smell the alcohol filling the room with just a sniff; she thought to herself, "Susie really got it done quickly."
How dense must Chu Zihang be to keep up with Su Xi's change of heart? Could he have a problem with his sexual orientation?
Nono stroked her chin and suddenly felt that Caesar was a bit dangerous.
Yes, she knew that Susie had started having feelings for Lu Mingfei after the Bronze City operation.
Did Chu Zihang really think that inviting Lu Mingfei over on Valentine's Day was Chu Zihang's own scheme?
You should know that Caesar brought Chu Zihang to find Lu Mingfei for this event, so why don't you quickly thank Sister Nuo?
She even knew about it earlier than Susie herself, because she shared a dorm room with Susie and could sometimes hear Susie talking in her sleep and calling out Lu Mingfei's name.
Lu Mingfei walked up with a somewhat helpless expression.
"It's good that you're back. She drank too much, so you'll have to take care of her."
"You really think she's drunk?"
Nono looked at Lu Mingfei, who seemed oblivious and eager to leave, and felt a sense of exasperation.
But Lu Mingfei just looked completely bewildered, pointing to the two empty bottles of whiskey on the table.
"She said it wasn't strong enough halfway through, then mixed this with whiskey and drank a quarter of the jar. What else could it be?"
"Oh... then it's alright."
