"Tao Zi, this is the men's restroom. What are you doing here?"
Having sprinkled the stuff everywhere, Song Chuan shook his hands and quickly put the fire extinguisher back.
Tao Zi, standing behind him, had a flushed face: "Because I waited in the private room for a long time, but I didn't see you come back."
"I thought you were passed out in the restroom."
Song Chuan couldn't help but twitch his mouth: "You're underestimating me, aren't you?"
"It's just a little beer."
"Besides making me bloated, it has no other effect on me. Let's go, let's keep drinking."
After investing in Zhou Xun's Pu Ling Capital, Song Chuan was really broke, not even a penny left.
Hurry up and make Tao Zi mess up.
If there are no more reward drops.
For the karaoke bill, he'd have to pretend to be drunk and let Tao Zi pay.
He went to the front desk and bought some more white wine and red wine on credit. Song Chuan carried the bottles and lined them up on the table.
So much alcohol.
He didn't believe he couldn't get Tao Zi drunk.
"Song Chuan, it'd be such a waste if we can't finish all this. Should we return some?"
"No returns. We're getting wasted tonight."
Song Chuan poured the baijiu into the glass and handed it to Tao Zi: "Come on, drink up."
Tao Zi couldn't help but swallow, she had never drunk baijiu before.
She leaned in and sniffed the glass, then took a small sip.
After that first sip...
Her whole body instantly warmed up.
She sighed comfortably: "More, more."
One glass, two glasses... By the third glass...
Tao Zi was already feeling dizzy, her face flushed as she fell into Song Chuan's arms.
Even when she sat up, she swayed a little: "Song Chuan… brother… I… I want to drink more…"
"Give it to me quickly!"
"I want to drink more."
Playing with the wine glass in his hand, Song Chuan's gaze fell on the table full of alcohol, a smile playing on his lips.
"What a waste."
"I didn't expect you to be good at beer, but you went down so quickly with the baijiu. If I'd known, I should have given you baijiu first."
"Brother Song Chuan… what did you say… what do you want to feed me… is it that…"
The word jumped out of her mouth, and Song Chuan's eyelids twitched instantly, and he couldn't help but chuckle.
"Tao Zi, you're such a dirty girl."
"Song Chuan-gege, how am I dirty~?"
"If you weren't dirty, why would you ask Song Chuan-gege for that, aren't you ashamed?"
Tao Zi, drunk, was much bolder. She directly wrapped her arms around Song Chuan's neck.
"It wasn't me who said… this kind of thing… It was a friend who was chatting with me yesterday…"
"She… she said… there's a gege living in her house… that gege gave her…"
It wasn't hard to deduce from her words that her friend was definitely Ying Zi.
Song Chuan raised an eyebrow: "Gave her what? Tell me."
"I ate… I ate that… I want to eat it too… I can't… I can't eat anymore… Song Chuan, I want to throw up…"
Seeing how uncomfortable she was, Song Chuan quickly put his arm around her shoulders. "Hold it in, don't throw up."
"How about I take you singing? Maybe you won't feel like throwing up after singing for a while."
"Singing? Good… good… good… singing…"
"Come on."
He picked up the microphone that was placed to the side and handed it to her.
"I'll pick a song for you."
"No matter what Song Chuan does to you later, hold onto the microphone tightly, okay?"
"Alright, alright."
"Come on, sit on big brother's lap."
Damn it!
Tao Zi, after drinking, had completely unleashed her true nature. The next second, she sat on Song Chuan's lap, being incredibly obedient.
Song Chuan's gaze hardened!
"..."
When Song Chuan left the karaoke place with Tao Zi, he really didn't have a penny left in his wallet.
He was even a little worried about not being able to pay the bill.
Fortunately, as soon as he stepped out of the private room door, the waiter informed him that the bill for his room had already been settled.
By whom, specifically?
The waiter didn't know.
But Song Chuan could more or less guess.
He'd only been in contact with one person here.
Who else could it be but Zhou Xun?
It seemed Zhou Xun still had a bit of a conscience; Song Chuan hadn't invested in him for nothing.
Hugging Tao Zi, who had been dripping the whole way, as they left the karaoke bar, Song Chuan didn't dare call a car, fearing he'd stain the back seat.
Luckily, this karaoke place wasn't too far from Shuxiang Yayuan.
However, Song Chuan wasn't taking Tao Zi back to Shuxiang Yayuan; instead, he was taking her to Pan Shuai's place.
Although Pan Shuai was Tao Zi's maternal uncle, they were still of different genders and didn't live together.
But to make it easier to take care of Tao Zi, Pan Shuai lived in a single apartment complex close to Shuxiang Yayuan.
They arrived after walking a few steps.
But carrying someone made the journey take a bit longer.
Fortunately, Song Chuan had already carried her to Pan Shuai's door and rang the doorbell.
He rang it for a long time.
There wasn't a sound.
Damn it!
Could Pan Shuai not be home?
Song Chuan's mood immediately soured. If Pan Shuai wasn't home, wouldn't he fail this mission?
"Who is it?"
The door opened from the inside, and Pan Shuai stood in the doorway with a toothbrush in his mouth, his mouth full of foam.
As the door opened.
A wave of alcohol fumes hit him in the face, instantly setting Pan Shuai's anger ablaze.
Especially when he saw Tao Zi in Song Chuan's arms, looking like a pile of mud, his anger flared even higher.
"Tao Zi!!"
This roar startled Tao Zi, who was still dazed. She immediately straightened up, and the alcohol seemed to wear off a bit.
"Teacher Li told me you took the day off today, saying you were doing good deeds. So, you went drinking???"
"Drunk as a skunk!"
"Are you trying to make me angry to death!"
Tao Zi was so frightened that she swallowed hard: "Uncle, no, no, no, listen to me, I really did good deeds."
"This is the brother I helped."
Terrified, Tao Zi kept blinking at Song Chuan, wanting him to explain things for her.
Song Chuan gave a dry laugh, "Um... ahem..."
"Tao Zi's uncle, please don't be angry. The thing is, I fainted on the road today, and Tao Zi helped me."
"Out of gratitude, I treated her to a meal. There was alcohol on the table, and she couldn't handle it, so she ended up like this. I hope you don't misunderstand."
