Liu Shu trembled with excitent, worried that Zhang might suddenly be scared. With squinted eyes, she whispered, "Still... it’s the sa thing!"
Bai Lexin first worked as a laborer for several years, then went to war, and later started doing business.
His life experience was extrely rich. He had a pair of sharp, golden eyes from years of training, and didn’t notice Zhang Dadan’s intentional distraction tactics.
Now, Dr. Liu Zhiliu and he had only a superficial relationship, unrelated to life, death, illness, or bereavent. Why was that?
"Dadan! Seeing him like this doesn’t look like he’s seriously ill. Let him find you another day." Bai Lexin squinted and said softly.
Although Liu Zhi was very eager and wanted to help Zhang, he felt embarrassed to reveal his illness in front of an outsider.
"Zhang... Dr. Zhang Shen, another day... change to another day! Aren’t you going to the city this week? I’ll wait for you." Liu Chao nodded and replied.
Zhang Dadan saw that he was about to escape alone, so he deliberately threatened, "Dr. Liu, the more serious it becos, the more it might fester. It’s better for to help you heal quickly!"
Break down... fester? Bai Lexin furrowed his brows even tighter, even though he didn’t know what illness plagued Liu Zhi. But hearing about festering didn’t easily startle him; he urged with a disgusted expression:
"Dr... Dr. Liu, I have sothing to discuss with Zhang Dadan. You can go back first. Your illness... Dadan will surely help you!"
Liu Shu hesitated, seeing Zhang’s face, watching him blink nonstop, his heart aching even more.
I’m just a small guy. Why make things difficult for ? Haven’t you hard enough, Dadan?
Seeing Liu Chi’s indecision, Bai Jie didn’t dare to leave, so she directly turned to Zhang and said, "Zhang Dadan, why are you in such a hurry to leave? We’ll just eat you if we can’t!"
"Yes! Don’t rush, Dadan! I still have so much to tell you! Let Dr. Liu go first!" Bai Lexin said almost in one breath.
Seeing no way out, Zhang Dadan had to give in. He reluctantly smiled at Liu Zhi and said, "Dr. Liu, you should go back first."
Liu Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, bowed to Zhang and nodded, smiled at Bai Lexin, and dashed out of the villa.
After he left, Bai Lexin glanced at the clock and laughed. "It’s almost been an hour. It’s all Grandpa Qian’s fault. We haven’t even started eating yet!"
After that, he couldn’t help but eagerly pull Zhang Dadan towards the dining room. Zhang Dadan, grabbing his wrist, couldn’t break free, and had to follow.
The three of them entered the dining room, where lunch was already set on the table.
After sitting down, Bai Lexin first had soone pour wine and smiled at Zhang Dadan, saying, "Dadan, really, thank you for today!"
Before Mr. Zhang could modestly respond, Bai Lexin continued, "Without you, I wouldn’t know how to deal with the Qian Family and Grandpa issues. Co, let’s have a drink!"
Zhang Dadan quickly picked up a glass of wine, toasted to him, and drank it all in one go, modestly saying, "A small effort... it was nothing..."
Bai Lexin sat across from Zhang, noticing his humility but still complained, "You don’t know how difficult the Qian Family can be!"
"But today’s business, Grandpa Qian was really frightened. He won’t have the ti to bother our family anymore!"
Bai Lexin glared at Bai Jie, signaling her to stop talking nonsense, even though their relationship...
Zhang Dadan didn’t understand this, feeling a bit dizzy. He began to ask, "What was the purpose of that toast?"
Bai Lexin was obviously stunned, then laughed and said, "Nothing! Just for my old man’s health, okay?"
Having said everything, would Zhang Gan dare refuse? Naturally, he picked up another glass and drank it.
After two glasses, Bai Lexin said to Bai Jie, "Ah! Bai Jie, why are you just sitting there? Although I’ve never liked you drinking, today is a joyful day, so you can have a couple of glasses too!"
Then he saw a servant bring another glass, put it in front of Bai, and sneak a glance at her.
Zhang Dadan sensed a strange atmosphere, so he quickly ate a few bites and pretended to be full, saying, "Grandpa Bai, thank you for the al, I’m full!"
Seeing he was still in a hurry to leave, Bai Jie said unhappily, "What’s wrong? Do you think our food isn’t good?"
As soon as he heard her voice, he saw the chubby Bai Lexin, in a chef’s outfit, glaring at Zhang and asked, "Mr. Zhang, is there any dish you’re not satisfied with?"
Facing the fierce chubby man, Zhang Dadan couldn’t help but feel a bit resentful. Could he always put this innocent man out of work because of himself?
"No... no... everything’s delicious... really, but I ate too much this morning, so I’m not very hungry!" Zhang answered with a laugh.
His kind response made Bai Lexin grab the handle and laugh. "Not hungry? Then drink more!"
How much... drink how much wine? This old man really intended to make drink! It seed this al had been prepared for a long ti.
Don’t tell how much I’ve drunk. Even if I do get drunk, I’ll just be confused. You old man look down on .
"Alright, since you want to drink, I’ll have a few more with you!" Zhang Dadan laughed, truly not believing Bai Lexin could drink him under the table.
In Bai Lexin’s response, his eyes showed a strange smile. This was a planned plot, a victory after scheming.
"Good! Refreshing! I haven’t seen such a straightforward young man in a long ti!" Bai Xin laughed.
Bai Jie looked at him, timidly saying, "So... shall I drink with you? But I can’t handle white wine!"
Before Bai Lexin could reply, Zhang Dadan hurriedly said, "Don’t drink white wine, have red wine instead!"
Zhang Dadan didn’t like girls drinking, but on soone else’s turf, he didn’t cause a fuss and had to retreat to the second option.
"Quick... change her glass to white wine and bring a bottle of red wine..." Bai Lexin said softly.
From Zhang’s suggestion, he saw worry and compassion. If Zhang didn’t have feelings for his granddaughter, would he care about what wine she drank?
Bai Jie, the party involved, naturally realized the "full of affection" care from Zhang Dadan. She sneaked a glance at him, her face gradually blushing.
Seeing this, the butler on the other side playfully said, "Why is the young lady blushing before she even started drinking?"
Bai Jie, embarrassed and shy because of Wen Yan, said, "Uncle Bai, what are you talking about?"
Bai Lexin, as an old sly "businessman," since he wanted to match his granddaughter with Zhang Dadan, wouldn’t just prepare a simple conversation.
After all, the most powerless thing in the world is words. If you want to do sothing, you must act decisively.
What Bai Lexin wanted to do was to get Zhang Dadan and his granddaughter drunk and cook the rice.
Although as a grandfather, doing this was a bit an, even shaless, he knew what his granddaughter wanted.
If he did this, he was just helping her. What’s a little moral stain?
Zhang Dadan wasn’t aware of Bai Lexin’s trickery, but he thought the old man wanted to get him drunk, so he’d accept Bai in a daze, not being too alert.
Moreover, he was confident in his drinking capacity. How could a man in his seventies out-drink him?
Reality proved he underestimated Bai Xinxin.
