Shancai Rebirth: My Choice

The more Dong Shen looked at him, the more satisfied he became. This child looked very gentle.

Her beloved daughter Shanlai is wild and needs someone sensible to take care of her.

Lei just stood by and smiled, and he didn't rush to speak when Deng Heyin didn't speak to him.

Deng Heyin didn't seem to be under any pressure. He casually picked up a glass of whiskey and handed it over. He didn't say anything, but just looked at Lei with a melancholy face.

Simon felt that the atmosphere was not right. Lei was not very good at drinking, let alone whiskey, which had a strong aftereffect.

He was just about to step forward and say something, but Lei took the cup handed to him by Deng Heyin as if nothing had happened.

Mei Zuo and the others nearby looked at each other. They had just observed carefully that Deng and Yin wanted the strongest kind of wine. No one knew what would happen after they drank it.

"Uncle, I toast to you." Lei smiled and raised his glass.

Deng Heyin clinked glasses with him and then drank it all in one gulp.

Lei finished his glass of wine after him, and his face didn't look changed at all.

Ximen, who had been watching from the side, breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, this kid didn't make a fool of himself. He used to be the kind of person who would blush after drinking a little bit of alcohol.

Who knew that drinking one cup was not enough, Deng Heyin took two more cups, drank one cup first, and then looked at Lei.

Lei just smiled faintly and took it and drank it without hesitation.

They didn't stop until they had three cups each.

Deng Heyin seemed very satisfied with Lei's performance. He patted him on the shoulder and chatted and laughed with the Ximen couple next to him.

Simon looked at Lei while answering the questions his old mother asked him from time to time. He felt that his brain was not enough.

The guy next to him could still talk freely when Deng Heyin asked him about his views on certain things. He could objectively state the nature of the matter and also express his own views.

Ximen was secretly shocked. When did the realm of this kind become so high?

Mei Zuo and Dao Ming Si did not dare to say anything. Although they each had their own abilities to handle things, their skills were not enough in front of the heads of these families. So they avoided speaking, for fear of saying something wrong and giving people a bad impression.

After talking for a while, they finally got down to business and had their meal together. Ximen went to the other side and called Shanlai over who was eating pastries.

Lei just happened to sit next to Deng Heyin.

Shanlai sat opposite the class, eating the food on the plate while looking at the person opposite.

He was a little strange tonight. He didn't say anything and didn't look up at her much. He just kept struggling with the food in front of him.

She winked at Simon next to her, who understood immediately and said to her as quietly as possible: "Lei just had a drink with Uncle Deng."

Shan Lai nodded, and then seemed to remember something, and looked at Ximen with some confusion, "What? Drinking? What did they drink?"

"Whiskey." Ximen lowered his voice again and again. When he felt the "concerned" look from Mo Yihang opposite him, he silently turned his head back towards Shanlai and ate the food in front of him reluctantly.

After the dinner, Deng Heyin exchanged a few polite words with the Ximen couple.

Shanlai stood obediently beside them, and Lei was also beside them. Perhaps due to the aftereffects of the alcohol, he just listened without expressing any opinion, let alone looking up at her.

"Then we'll leave first. Thank you for your family's hospitality today." Dong Shen smiled politely, took Mo Yihang's hand and said a few more words.

Mr. and Mrs. Simon watched the family get into the car and leave.

The moment the car drove out, Lei staggered forward. If Daomingsi hadn't been quick to hold him back, he would have had a close contact with the ground.

The Simon couple next to them looked at each other and could only smile helplessly. What a kid! He obviously couldn't drink but still accepted the wine. It was difficult for him not to show weakness in front of his future father-in-law.

"Since you all have been drinking tonight, don't go home. Just stay at our house and we'll talk tomorrow morning." Mo Yihang didn't give them a chance to refute. Before they could react, he turned around and went to entertain other guests.

Seeing that Lei was not in a good condition, Ximen could only shrug helplessly. This was Lei's future father-in-law, and it would be bad for him not to drink. If he drank, he would be in his current state.

He was busy now and had to help his mother entertain the remaining guests. Meizuo was more stable and could help a little. Ximen looked at his good brother Daomingsi next to him and said, "A Si, you can take Lei upstairs to lie down for a while. We will come up after we finish the things downstairs."

Mei Zuo also agreed, "Aji, you can take them up first. The guests who haven't left yet need to be entertained. Ximen and I can't spare the time, so please help me."

Daomingsi curled his lips, as if what they said made sense, "Okay, then I'll send Lei up." After saying that, he raised the hand that was supporting Lei.

Ximen called the butler next to him and asked him to take Daomingsi and the others upstairs and then cook a bowl of sobering soup for Lei. After everything was arranged, he went with Meizuo to entertain the guests.

Daomingsi and Ximen family's butler each carried one of Lei upstairs. When they finally reached the room, Daomingsi threw him on the bed, put his hands on his hips and looked at him, "I'm so tired. You're drinking even though you can't drink. You look like you have a serious illness." Having said that, he still didn't forget to get a towel and some warm water to wipe Lei's face.

After finishing all this, he was about to turn off the lights and go out when he accidentally saw the cell phone in Lei's pocket ringing.

Somehow, Daomingsi suddenly wanted to know who sent him the message, and took his phone and opened it.

[I'm home now. If you've been drinking, remember to drink some sobering tea.]

The chat box shows that the other party is "typing", and the note is "my muse".

Daoming Si stared at the dialog box for a long time, and another message popped up, "Mom likes you very much." There was an "I am very happy" emoticon package below it.

He didn't know how to describe his feelings at this moment.

No matter how stupid he is, he knows who is on the other side.

After taking a look at the unconscious person lying on the bed, Daomingsi somehow opened the dialog box and replied, "OK."

After thinking it over, he felt it was inappropriate and withdrew the idea, putting the phone back into Lei's pocket.

Somehow, when he thought of Shanlai's sweet smiling face, he felt a different emotion in his heart. She didn't seem that ugly, but rather pretty.

Lei, who was lying on the bed, seemed to frown, "It's okay, I can still have a drink."

It just sounds like the voice is a little hoarse, but other things don't seem to be a big problem.

Daomingsi thought he was awake, but he didn't seem to respond after calling him twice. Then he realized that he was drunk and started talking nonsense.

He also helped him take off his coat, put his cell phone on the bedside table next to him and covered him with a blanket.

After doing all this, he felt inexplicably irritated when he thought of the news he had just seen. He scratched his hair, turned off the light, and walked out of the room.
