C250 – They Were All Drunk
Indeed, they appeared sober despite having consumed alcohol.
They were capable of consuming up to half a liter more of wine.
They were genuinely pleased to encounter Su Ming.
They understood that many individuals do not feel the effects of alcohol immediately but become intoxicated after continuous drinking.
They suspected Su Ming was one of those who gradually become intoxicated.
They exclaimed in unison, “Cheers!”
Su Ming refilled his glass and lifted it in a toast.
They experienced a sense of regret internally.
Their decision to drink directly upon meeting Su Ming, especially without eating first, was ill-advised.
Their eagerness led them to drink on an empty stomach, which they hadn’t considered until it was too late.
Consuming alcohol without any food in the stomach is detrimental to health and increases intoxication levels.
They wished they had opted for a casual meal, such as a barbecue at a street stall, before drinking.
However, their realization came too late to change their course of action.
With Su Ming already engaging in the toast, they felt compelled to join.
After finishing his drink, Huang Tao became unconscious.
He toppled from his chair, succumbing to sleep.
Wang Haiyang also lost consciousness after his fourth glass.
He found rest on the couch.
Subsequently, Zhang Siyan too fell unconscious.
Normally, Zhang Siyan could handle his liquor quite well.
His limit was reached after consuming three kilograms of baijiu, showcasing his considerable drinking capacity.
“Mr. Su.”
As Su Ming was about to pour another drink, Zhang Siyan, somewhat disoriented, grabbed his hand.
With a tearful voice, he admitted defeat, promising to no longer boast about his drinking prowess.
Su Ming, with a smile, assured him that he was completely sober.
At this point, Zhang Siyan was overtaken by tears.
Each had consumed nearly three kilograms of baijiu, while Su Ming alone had consumed ten kilograms.
Even if it had been water, one would expect a bathroom break by now, yet Su Ming sat there unaffected.
Su Ming made this declaration without any hint of alteration in his demeanor.
Zhang Siyan found himself at a loss, unable to consume any more alcohol.
“Mr. Su, we admit our mistake and will no longer make unwarranted claims.”nove(l)bi(n.)com
Upon concluding his plea, he collapsed to the floor.
Together, the group had a significant capacity for alcohol.
They had pledged to host Mr. Su but failed to do so.
Eventually, all three became inebriated.
Loong Tianyu anticipated their reaction upon sobering up would be less than pleasant.
The thought crossed Loong Tianyu’s mind with ease.
Settling the bill was simple, given its relatively minor amount.
The cost was negligible to them.
However, attempting to pay was futile.
Their intoxication level rendered them incapacitated.
Orienting themselves was an impossibility.
The manager made his return after some time.
He approached with a bill in hand.
Upon inspection, Su Ming found the total to be reasonably priced.
The tab, comprising several bottles of premium liquor and snacks, was notably affordable.
A discount was applied, courtesy of their friendship with the establishment’s owner.
Su Ming proceeded to settle the bill with his credit card.
Loong Tianyu made a call on his phone.
A bus soon arrived from a distance.
Upon its arrival, numerous individuals disembarked.
Su Ming observed and pieced together the situation.
The bus was arranged by Loong Tianyu for transportation purposes.
It served to collect the family members who would then escort the intoxicated individuals home.
Shortly thereafter, the companions were collected by their families or assistants.
Their composed demeanor and adept handling were noticeable.
This scenario was evidently not their first occurrence.
Members of Lee Xiaocheng’s family were particularly proficient, displaying a mix of skill and disdain.
The reason being, he was invariably among those inebriated.
Instances occurred where, despite others being sober, he alone was drunk.
This recurrent scenario was a source of embarrassment for them.
“Mr. Su, my car is conveniently parked outside the racetrack, and I haven’t drunk anything. I can drive you home.”
Loong Tianyu noted the late hour, reassuring that the car would be returned the following day.
Su Ming expressed indifference, suggesting they could drive until they wished to return his cars.
Without further discussion, Loong Tianyu agreed.
He instructed Su Ming to wait at the bar, then retrieved the car from the parking lot to drive Su Ming to the city center.
Upon dropping him off, Loong Tianyu headed home.
