Mommy, the wealthy daddy has come to propose again.

"It's better to come sooner than later. Can I share a table with you for dinner?"

Seeing no one answered, Lan Qichen found himself at the bottom of the stairs.

He first took a seat directly next to Bai Ning, and then poured himself a glass of dry red.

Then he called the waiter, circled a few more expensive dishes on the menu, and waved his hand: "Eat whatever you want, I'll pay for it."

Bai Ning had no expression on his face the whole time, watching him quietly.

Xiao Boxheng smiled and raised his glass politely: "Mr. Lan, I respect you."

Although he felt very unhappy about the arrival of this uninvited guest in front of him, in order to highlight his generosity in front of his sweetheart, he still chose to treat him with courtesy.

Lan Qichen clinked the glass with him casually, then raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.

"Mr. Lan has a good drinking capacity."

Xiao Boxheng only took a small sip, looking at his love rival opposite with a smile in his eyes, and a hint of mockery at the corners of his slightly raised lips.

This little expression fell into Lan Qichen's eyes, and it seemed like a naked provocation.

You little boy, dare to show off your power in front of me?

Deliberately looking for trouble?

"Mr. Xiao, weren't you a good drinker at the last dinner where we signed the contract?"

Lan Qichen said angrily: "Why are you pretending to be reserved now? Are you trying to show off your gentlemanly demeanor?"

Before Xiao Boxheng could defend himself, he continued: "Actually, it's not necessary. To be honest, women like men who are masculine. Your ability to drink... is too low."

After that, he drank another glass of wine.

Lan Qichen's eyes wandered to Bai Ning, confirming that what he just said was based on her criteria for choosing a mate, which instantly aroused Xiao Boxheng's desire to win.

"Mr. Lan is joking," Xiao Boxheng poured himself a glass of wine with a smile on his face and raised his glass to his love rival, declaring a head-on challenge.

"It's been a long time since I had a drink with Mr. Lan. Why don't we choose another day to catch the sun? How about we stay drunk tonight?"

During the drinking contest, Lan Qichen was the first to make trouble with his rude remarks. Although Xiao Boxheng did not cause trouble, it did not mean that he was afraid of trouble. How could he endure being mocked by his love rival?

In order not to lose face in front of Bai Ning, Xiao Boxheng chose to fight back, at least his grace was still intact.

"Okay," Lan Qichen drank like water and responded with a smile, "That's exactly what I meant."

At this point, the two of them started drinking together, one glass at a time, and no one would admit defeat.

A large table of sumptuous dishes was basically untouched. There were a lot of empty wine bottles on the table, and they were scattered on the floor.

"Okay, you two, stop drinking. There's no one to clean up the mess when you're drunk."

Bai Ning simply snatched the wine bottle from Lan Qichen's hand and ordered: "Don't drink anymore. I'll call you a car to go back. Do you hear me?"

I thought that after leaving, they would never meet again in this life, but unexpectedly, the world is too small, and they finally met again after going round and round.

Is it fate or evil?

Lan Qichen's eyes were blurry with drunkenness. She opened a new one without giving him a drink, raised her head and drank heavily.

The scene of Bai Ning caring about Lan Qichen fell into Xiao Boxheng's eyes, and he couldn't help but feel a sadness in his heart.

She still cares about him.

The scene of the two of them in the same frame stung Xiao Boxheng's eyes. He laughed miserably and drank one glass after another to drown his sorrows.

Raise your glass to dissipate your worries and worry even more.

"Stop drinking."

A low female voice sounded above her head. Xiao Boxheng raised his head and met Bai Ning's eyes like sinking water.

She snatched the cup from his hand and stopped him forcefully: "That's enough, I'll ask a driver to take you home."

Even though she drank too much, her face was still clear in his eyes, and her picturesque brows were even more sulky.

Is this worrying about me?

"You care about me?"

Xiao Boxheng smiled, looking at her with a little admiration in his eyes.

"Bai Ning...actually I...I'm quite happy."

He obediently put down his wine glass, got into the car and left with his heart filled with joy.
