C249 – You Drink a Lot
They clearly seemed to be regular patrons of the bar.
Upon their arrival, the bar manager promptly came over to welcome them and arranged for white wine in their room.
Su Ming noticed that the manager had set aside a selection of Maotai Liquor specifically for them.
Even though Su Ming had access to various expensive red wines, he personally found them to be quite average.
He believed the white wine served at the imperial court surpassed this in quality.
“Mr. Su, today’s selection by Zhang comprises entirely of fine wines.”
Wang Haiyang, observing the wines, couldn’t help but chuckle.
“Mr. Su, allow me the honor of proposing a toast to you.”
Zhang Siyan filled a small cup with wine for himself.
This cup had a generous capacity.
Three such cups amounted to half a liter of wine!
Since Zhang Siyan was keen on drinking, Su Ming was ready to join him.
Su Ming intended to show Zhang Siyan a challenging time.
Loong Tianyu, sitting aside, continued to smile throughout.
He was aware that these individuals were in for a surprise today.
During their meal the previous day, he observed that Su Ming consumed a considerable amount of alcohol.
Despite drinking heavily, Su Ming showed no signs of intoxication.
Su Ming effortlessly finished his wine glass in one swallow.
“Mr. Su, though we’ve been acquainted for some time, our initial interaction wasn’t the warmest. Please accept this cup as my apology.”
Wang Haiyang, with a smile, filled his cup and emptied it in one go.
Huang Tao also offered a toast to Su Ming.
Su Ming found their attempts amusing.
Did they think they could intoxicate him?
Considering his capacity, Su Ming was unconcerned about getting drunk.
“Tianyu, aren’t you drinking?”
Wang Haiyang noticed Loong Tianyu’s amusement.
“I’ve stopped drinking. My stomach’s been a bit off lately.”
Loong Tianyu declined, shaking his head.
He didn’t intend to indulge as much as the others.
Everyone except Loong Tianyu raised their glasses to Su Ming.
By now, Su Ming had consumed over half a liter of white wine.
Yet, they were astonished to find that Su Ming appeared sober, as if he had merely drunk water.
“Mr. Su, your capacity for alcohol is impressive!”
Wang Haiyang expressed his admiration.
The strictness of Loong Tianyu’s family was the cause of his unique behavior.
His family was engaged in the food and beverage sector.
His grandfather, in particular, placed a high emphasis on dietary matters.
After the family patriarch’s taste buds began to deteriorate, he imposed dietary restrictions on the family.
While others might envy Loong Tianyu for the delicacies his family enjoyed,
He, on the other hand, longed for the simplicity of fast food.
This resulted in mutual envy among them.
Hence, Loong Tianyu found joy in his side meal.
Among those drinking with Su Ming, Wang Haiyang was the only one still somewhat alert, despite his bleary eyes and unsteady stance.
Meanwhile, Lee Xiaocheng’s face had turned red, and he was babbling incoherently.
He was on the verge of drunkenness.
Huang Tao was slightly more coherent than Lee Xiaocheng,
Still able to engage in conversation.
Zhang Siyan showed a greater tolerance for alcohol than his peers.
His proficiency in drinking was attributed to his upbringing in a prominent family.
Yet, he too felt a bit lightheaded,
Having consumed over a liter of wine.
As they drank, they inwardly marveled at Mr. Su’s capacity for alcohol.
His consumption of two bottles had left him unaffected.
The group was disinclined to continue drinking.
Any more alcohol would render them utterly insensible.
However, witnessing Su Ming’s enjoyment, they were persuaded to keep up.
They managed to finish another bottle.
This brought them a momentary sense of relief,
Believing the ordeal was finally behind them.
But then, Su Ming set his cup down and simultaneously signaled for more.
“Boss, bring us two more bottles!”
This request utterly deflated the group.
Their initial plan had been to outdrink Mr. Su.
Yet it was clear that Mr. Su’s tolerance far exceeded their expectations.
Mr. Su would drink four glasses to their one,
Yet he remained sober while their senses dulled.
By this point, Lee Xiaocheng had slumped beneath the table, utterly intoxicated.
They resolved to continue drinking alongside Mr. Su.
