"Is this where you said the candlelight dinner was?" Standing in front of the gate of the sea, Ling Yao lowered his head with an extremely oppressive feeling. His forehead was almost touching Hai Xiao Min's forehead. As he spoke, he seemed to be gritting his teeth.

It was fine if he sent Hai Xiaomin home last night, but when he came back today, he should have picked a few gifts first. In the end, he was tricked into coming here empty-handed!

Hai Xiaomin replied, "If we turn off the lights, wouldn't it be candlelight for dinner?"

Hearing this kind of candlelight dinner, Ling Yao felt like he was going to choke.

"Alright, alright. Let's hurry up and go in. Everyone is waiting for us!" Hai Xiao Min didn't give him a chance to be angry, she dragged his arm and snickered, "Dad, mom, I've brought them."

As soon as he entered the room, Ling Yao was stunned by the scene before him.

It had only been a day, but this house seemed to have changed greatly. The small living room was decorated with lanterns and decorations, the walls were decorated with fiery red decorations, the balcony was decorated with colored lanterns, and a large round table was placed in the middle of the living room.

Everyone in the room was more or less dressed in red, with a carefree smile on their faces. The atmosphere was festive and auspicious.

Is this China's traditional New Year's Eve?

"Ling Yao is here! Come sit, sit!" The Sea Mother passionately added a pair of chopsticks to Ling Yu's bowl.

Ling Yao regained his senses, and quickly entered the role. He paid his respects to the two elders for a year: "Happy New Year, Uncle and Aunt! I was in a hurry on the way, and didn't have time to prepare any gifts, so I'll make it up later. I hope Uncle and Aunt won't take offense! "

"What are you saying? Why are you acting so foreign to me? If you're here, then wouldn't your intentions be here?" Mother Hai smiled, not taking the matter of the gift to heart.

Seeing that they were almost all here, it would be too cold if they didn't eat any more food, everyone sat down and began to move their chopsticks.

Ling Yao, New Year's Eve is just a time to have a meal together with your family. If you don't like the taste, feel free to take care of it. Come, have a taste of my aunt's roasted black chicken!" Mother Hai picked up a chicken drumstick and scooped it into an empty bowl to scoop up the chicken soup.

Being overwhelmed by the unexpected favor, Ling Shang stood up and took the bowl from her. "Auntie, you're too polite. I'm sorry for bothering you today, but I should be the one paying you a visit!"

After saying that, she put down her bowl and specially scooped a bowl for Mother Hai, who praised his actions endlessly and beamed at Father Hai with her eyes. See, if you have such a filial and sensible son-in-law, what else is there for you to be dissatisfied with.

Father Hai pouted and was about to say something when another bowl of chicken soup was handed to him and stopped him in his mouth.

"Uncle."

His father, Hai Yang, looked at him and did not know what to do. However, how could it be possible for a bowl of chicken soup to successfully curry favor with his mother and father?

Father Hai appeared unfazed by Ling Yao's flattery. He calmly poured two glasses of white wine in front of him. "It's the new year and you're not going to replace the wine with soup. Man, let's toast first!"

The atmosphere at the table froze. Everyone could tell that Father Hai was deliberately making things difficult for Ling Yao.

"Hai Fen!" the mother said to herself.

"I know my limits." Father Hai refused to listen and insisted on drinking with Ling Yao.

Now that the Hai Clan had reached this stage, there were no lack of mistakes in his judgement. This was already a big lesson for him. He no longer believed that people could only look at the surface.

A person's character could also be tested by passing the wine test.

Hai Xiaoming looked worriedly at the two men in the house and asked Hai Lanyin for help. Hai Lanyin calmly handed over a bottle of beer.

Hai Xiao Min suddenly realized and quickly said: "Father, you are in bad health! "If the alcohol is harmful, why don't you drink some beer? Beer is good!"

He didn't expect that Hai Fu would be so stubborn that even nine oxen wouldn't be able to pull him back. "If it's white, then I won't have to lie down without using two glasses of white wine!"

Ling Yao had no choice but to take a cup: "Since it's a traditional rule, we shouldn't decline."

Right at this moment, someone under the table kicked him. Ling Yao raised his eyes and saw Hai Xiaomin staring at him with a look of innocence. This was your father's wine, how could he not show it to him?

Giving her a comforting look, Ling Yao finished it in one gulp. However, as soon as the wine entered his mouth, a knot appeared between his handsome eyebrows.

Spicy! How spicy!

This time, Hai Xiao Min didn't sympathize with him. Previously, when he heard from Jess Xiu that he grew up in the United States, he knew that he definitely hadn't drunk much of China's high concentration liquor. Wasn't this just asking for trouble?

"That's right!" Father Hai nodded his head in satisfaction and poured another cup for the two of them. Ling Yao was able to endure it and did not say anything. Two men, drink one cup, drink one cup.

Father Hai's alcohol tolerance was average. After he drank half a bottle, his expression became absent-minded.

Hai Xiao Min heaved a sigh of relief, thinking that her father's side would have to settle down soon, so Ling Yao … As he turned his head, Ling Yao's handsome face turned red. His eyes were fluttering, and he was about to fall flat on the table.

F * ck me! This alcohol tolerance is even worse!

"The wine … the wine is gone?" Father Hai used all his strength to pour the empty bottle with a misty expression. When he realized that he couldn't pour out a single drop, he was afraid that Lu Li would want more wine if he shouted so he quickly snatched the bottle away.

"Dad, it's enough, Ling Yao is already drunk!"

"Is that so?" Hearing this, Father Hai raised his head and looked at Ling Yao. This was the effect he wanted, "Hey, the Ling kid!"

"Hmm?" Ling Yao's eyes were blurry.

"Look at me, who am I?" Father Hai pointed his tongue at him.

Ling Yao squinted his eyes, as if he was too far away to see the face, and finally answered with an alluring, drunken smile: "Father-in-law!"

Hai Xiao Min was directly struck down by his father-in-law, it was only his second time meeting him. He normally doesn't care about his face, he wouldn't be so careless in front of his elders. Was this really the effect of speaking the truth when drinking wine?

The people at the table did not think much of it. They all knew that he was drunk and was just messing around.

"What about her?" Hai Fu pointed to Hai Lan Yin.

While nibbling on the pork chop, Hai Lanyin innocently raised her head. She could only look at her father who was drunk and messing around and shake her head helplessly with a smile.

Ling Yao tilted his head and looked at it for a while: "I don't recognize it." He had only met Hai Lan Yin a few times.

Father Hai was unwilling to let this go. "Then tell me, is she beautiful?"

"I guess so. The contours of the oriental women's facial features... It's not sharp enough, it looks about the same. " Even if he was drunk, Ling Yao could still analyze it clearly. However, his evaluation was truly a little asking for a beating. Hai Lanyin was clearly a great beauty.

Father Hai was silent for two seconds, thinking about something. "Then look at her again."

"Who?" Ling Huang turned around and saw Hai Xiao Min. He felt dizzy and stared at her for a few seconds. Then, he pursed his lips and said, "Min Min."

Luckily, he was not embarrassed to the point that even she could not recognize him!
