I'm such a lovesick person.

Chapter 429 Suspicion
Xiao Bing's hand, gripping the wine glass, had four almost flat bony prominences on the back of his hand, a sign of long-term boxing practice.

At this moment, although she had already drunk quite a bit of alcohol and her body was in a relaxed state, Wei Lin felt that she could suddenly attack at any moment.

By focusing intently and sensing carefully, Wei Lin realized that Xiao Bing not only had strong vitality, but also seemed to have a surging sense of power within her.

He immediately realized that this woman was just as skilled in combat as he was.

In other words, Xiao Bing is very good at fighting.

Despite her incredible power due to the enhanced fruit, He Jingxuan was no match for Xiao Bing because she hadn't delved deeply into combat techniques.

An Xin is even less of a match.

"If a fight really breaks out, I have a feeling that neither Lao Duan nor Qin Bo would be a match for Xiao Bing?"

"Dou San is ruthless enough, but he's getting old after all."

"Damn, they can really drink!"

While Wei Lin was secretly surprised, Xiao Bing poured herself another glass of wine and went to find Huo Shiqi.

After she entered the private room, she started drinking with people everywhere, and her alcohol tolerance was truly astonishing, which frightened many people.

“Ordinary people shouldn’t have such strong vitality. Besides her, the other person I’ve seen with such strong vitality is at Mingji Hospital.”

"Could this woman have consumed a power-enhancing fruit?!"

Once this thought arose, Wei Lin suddenly lost his composure.

Those who possess the Enhancement Fruit are people who, like him, are favored by the Love Value System. The person he is most familiar with right now is Mr. Wu.

Wei Lin suspected that Xiao Bing knew Mr. Wu, and that the reason why her vitality was so strong was because Mr. Wu had given her a strengthening fruit.

"If that's the case, what is her relationship with Mr. Wu? Is she Mr. Wu's woman? Or a relative?"

Wei Lin's thoughts were surging.

Xiao Bing was still moving around in the private room, but Wei Lin's mind had already wandered elsewhere, and he began to worry that his identity would be exposed because of Xiao Bing.

"Delete my memory? It's useless. Too many people have seen me, and they will keep reminding Xiao Bing."

"With Xiao Bing's vigorous vitality, if someone tells her my name and what happened tonight, she will always find a way to find out the details."

"She knows she won't black out from drinking; if she were to mysteriously lose her memories of me, it would be a clue!"

"If she really has a relationship with Mr. Wu, how can I get her to stand on my side? Can she help me conceal her identity?"

Wei Lin frowned and pondered.

"Mr. Wei, shall we add each other on WeChat and exchange contact information?"

After moving around for a while, Xiao Bing returned to Wei Lin with only a flask of liquor in her hand. She had already drunk the bottle of liquor she brought with her.

"Wow, Ms. Xiao, you have a huge capacity for alcohol. I've really never seen many women who can drink as much as you."

Wei Lin politely added her contact information.

"I can tell from his tone that Mr. Wei is quite a heavy drinker," Xiao Bing said with a bright smile. "If there's an opportunity, please take care of me!"

Wei Lin nodded, saying insincerely, "Definitely, definitely!"

Xiao Bing left satisfied.

At this moment, Wei Lin noticed that Xiao Bing had only been there for a short while, but everyone had already been given a bit too much to drink.

"Damn it! Just how much can this woman named Xiao Bing drink?"

Huo Haosheng sat down next to Qin Bo and shouted, "She said she drank half a jin of liquor before coming here! She hasn't been here long, has she? She drank the whole bottle of baijiu, right?"

Qin Bo said with a bitter face, "To be honest, I've never seen her drunk."

Everyone at the table was amazed by Xiao Bing's drinking capacity, saying how impressive this woman was.

Wei Lin quietly asked Duan Hongjing, "Old Duan, just who is she?"

"She runs many KTVs, nightclubs, arcades, and bathhouses in Jiangsu Province. Her father used to run them, but after they fell into her hands, she made them even better."

"Brother, don't let her age fool you, she's really amazing."

"I admire her a bit, you'll understand once you get to know her."

Duan Hongjing commented.

Dou San hesitated for a moment before saying, "I heard she has a mysterious big shot behind her, like her godfather or boyfriend or something? I don't know the specifics, but there are a lot of rumors about it in Jinling City. Lao Duan, Qin Bo, do you two know anything about this?"

Duan Hongjing scoffed dismissively, "I've known her father and her for many years, and I've never heard of this before!" Qin Bo added, "Hearsay is completely unreliable!"

……

"Zhang Qin, if Huo Haosheng doesn't continue to cause you trouble, then don't bother with him."

As soon as Xiao Bing returned to his private room, he immediately kept his promise and said casually, "I just went over and toasted him, and that kid was really giving me face. I didn't force him, but he drank a whole pot with me."

Zhang Qin, who was already drunk, showed his displeasure when he saw that she was helping Huo Haosheng.

"Sister Bingbing, are you helping him or me? What's our relationship? You've only met him once, and you're telling me not to cause him trouble? That's a bit unreasonable, isn't it?"

Zhang Qin looked as if he had been greatly wronged.

The other people at the table knew the two of them and felt that Huo Haosheng had only shared a pot of wine with Xiao Bing, and that she shouldn't have spoken up for him.

However, she was highly respected among the crowd, and even those older than her dared not say much.

"Zhang Qin, do you think I would harm you?"

Xiao Bing said slowly.

Zhang Qin still doesn't know Huo Haosheng's true background. Based on her understanding of Zhang Qin's family situation, if Zhang Qin continues to fight Huo Haosheng like this, Zhang Qin will definitely be the one who suffers in the end.

Upon hearing this, everyone looked on with curiosity.

Zhang Qin was taken aback and said, "Isn't he just a rich kid?"

Xiao Bing narrowed her eyes slightly and said coldly, "Zhang Qin, the conflict between you two is just a minor squabble over a girl, and it doesn't involve any real interests. Take my advice and stop making trouble; it won't do you any good."

Zhang Qin hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Why does Huo Haosheng insist on making a scene?"

Xiao Bing thought about it seriously for a moment and said, "I just added his sister on WeChat. If Huo Haosheng really wants to keep an eye on you, let me know and I'll put in a good word for you to resolve this matter."

Zhang Qin nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

The others at the table also noticed something was amiss and realized that Huo Haosheng was no ordinary person. They were all quite impressed by Xiao Bing's methods.

……

Xiao Bing's arrival immediately shattered Wei Lin's mood for continuing the fun in the second round.

Seeing that Feng Yuzhi had already drunk quite a bit, he pulled An Xin aside and whispered a few words to her before taking He Jingxuan away, saying he had something to do the next day.

Qin Bo and the others tried to persuade him a few times, but seeing that he was determined, they stopped trying.

Half an hour later, Wei Lin returned to the executive suite of Tianyue Hotel and asked Coach Xiao He to take a shower first.

"Xiao Bing".

Wei Lin opened her WeChat Moments and scrolled through them one by one. He only saw a few posts about the opening of a business club, and none of the posts had been liked by anyone he knew.

Xiao Bing hadn't posted any selfies or group photos, leaving Wei Lin with no clues.

"He's resilient, a formidable fighter, and very young. At just over thirty, he manages so many clubs, arcades, and bathhouses. Xiao Bing is definitely no ordinary person."

"Did she notice anything about me?"

“She was upstairs before. She should have seen me when I stood up for Huo Haosheng.”

Wei Lin was a bit suspicious, always feeling that Xiao Bing's appearance at Qin Bo's seafood restaurant might have been for a purpose.

"Mr. Wei, why did you go home early?"

At that moment, Xiao Bing sent a message: "My dinner party is over. I just went to check on your side and found that you left first."

"Mr. Wei, it's still early. Aren't you going to come out and have some more fun?"

"Your brother and his family, Huo Shiqi and her siblings, and Lao Duan and the others are all here."

"I have several venues in Nanjing. Why don't you let your girlfriend go to sleep first, and sneak out to have a few more drinks with everyone?"

Xiao Bing extended a warm invitation.

After a moment's thought, Wei Lin replied politely, "I appreciate your kind offer, but I have something to do tomorrow morning, so I won't be coming out for another drink."

Xiao Bing said, "Alright. Mr. Wei, you are the man I have ever met who gives me the strongest feeling of strength and vitality, and you also have the best alcohol tolerance."

Wei Lin's heart skipped a beat.
