He naturally wanted An Youyu to become his daughter-in-law, but he knew that Lin Yi would never agree. He only said that to tease the old man Lin Yi, but he never expected that the old man would react so strongly, showing no respect for him, the chief of the Elders' Pavilion.

Li Hongxiang coughed awkwardly, "Brother Lin, I was just saying, can you please not react like that?"

"nonsense!"

Lin Yi glared at him. "You can't even talk about this! Yu'er can only be my granddaughter-in-law. If you say that again, believe me, I'll beat you up, you old bastard!"

Li Hongxiang: "..."

have to.

The more I talk about it, the more excited I get!

To even dare to say something like "beat him up," probably only Lin Yi in the whole world would dare to say such a thing.

Of course, there are reasons for that.

Lin Yi and Li Hongxiang knew each other when they were young, as they shared a dormitory in college.

They are both friends and brothers.

At that time, Li Hongxiang was just an ordinary college student, while Lin Yi, as the heir of the Lin family, was anything but ordinary. It could be said that their statuses were worlds apart, and Li Hongxiang received help from Lin Yi in many matters.

After graduation, Lin Yi took over the Lin family and became the head of the Chaopin family.

Li Hongxiang, on the other hand, worked hard within the system for decades, and miraculously rose to the position of chief member of the Elders' Council.

Their relationship has been kept strictly confidential. No one knows about it except the two of them, not even Lin Yi's wife, Xu Yanshu.

So when Xu Yanshu heard her husband's rude words, she was really frightened. She quickly got up and went to her husband's side, whispering in his ear, "Don't talk nonsense, okay? Why are you saying such things in front of Chief Li? Are you getting arrogant?"

Lin Yi glanced at his wife and said something surprising: "It's not like I haven't beaten him before. What can he do if I beat him again?"

Xu Yanshu: "..."

The information contained in her husband's words was so overwhelming that it left her mind in a state of confusion.

Li Hongxiang smiled and smoothed things over, "Madam, there's no need to take it to heart. Brother Lin and I are old acquaintances, and I'm used to hearing Brother Lin's nonsensical remarks."

Hearing Li Hongxiang say this, Xu Yanshu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

To everyone's surprise, Lin Yi's already displeased expression worsened after hearing Li Hongxiang's words. He glared at him irritably and said, "I said it's nonsense, but what you said is? Brother Li, after all these years, you're still quite good at embellishing yourself."

Li Hongxiang's face flushed red, and he could no longer hold back. "I'm telling you, you're the head of one of the three super-class families, how come you're still the same as before? There are juniors here, can't you consider my feelings?"

"cannot!"

"..."

Seeing Li Hongxiang's utterly speechless expression, Lin Yi felt a surge of satisfaction. "This isn't my fault. I gave you plenty of face at first, but you didn't appreciate it. You even dared to joke about my granddaughter-in-law, so of course I won't tolerate it!"

Li Hongxiang looked utterly dejected. "Fine, fine, just pretend I didn't say anything."

Before Lin Yi could respond, Lin Mo, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up, "Words spoken are like water spilled, Chief Li. Xiaoyuer is my future wife. Your joke is not funny at all. If that's the case, I'll have to withdraw the agreement I just made with the Elders' Council."

Li Hongxiang: "..."

The old are domineering, the young are deadly!

It turns out that if you are not from the same family, you won’t enter the same house!

He was just joking, wasn't he?

As for this?

Xu Yanshu had a headache.

It's one thing for the husband to be rude, but why is the grandson following suit?

No matter what, Li Hongxiang was the chief of the Elders' Council. Regardless of the relationship between her husband and him, it was neither reasonable nor ethical for her to be so disrespectful.

Lin Shu noticed her mother's expression and reminded her, "Xiao Mo, don't be so disrespectful. Watch your words."

Hearing his mother's reminder, Lin Mo didn't explain. He glanced at Li Hongxiang across from him, gave a polite smile, and then asked his mother, "Mom, someone is making advances towards your daughter-in-law. Can you really tolerate that?"

"I……"

"Could it be that you've changed your attitude simply because of Chief Li's status?"

"..."

Lin Shu opened her mouth, remained silent for a few seconds, then turned to her mother, Xu Yanshu, and said, "Mom, I don't think Xiao Mo said anything wrong. Yu'er is my bottom line. Anyone who dares to mess with her is asking for my life. Anyone who makes me unhappy will make me unhappy too."

Xu Yanshu: "..."

Forget it, I'm too tired.

Destroy it!

There's not a single normal person in her family. Li Hongxiang was clearly joking, but everyone in her family, young and old, has gone crazy.

She sighed helplessly and spread her hands at Li Hongxiang, "Chief Li, as you can see, I don't have much say at home. Please don't make jokes like that in the future. We don't have any treasures at home. Yu'er is the only treasure we have right now."

Li Hongxiang chuckled dryly, "Madam, I was just joking, I'm so sorry."

"belch……"

An Youyu, the main character in the conversation, was still hiccuping from the alcohol. She looked at her empty glass for a while and mumbled, "Wine lees? My wine lees?"

"Okay, okay, I'll pour it for you right away."

Lin Mo looked at him with doting eyes, but just as he picked up the wine jar, he heard his grandfather coughing.

Lin Yi snatched the wine jar, turned around and took a bottle of red wine from the wine rack behind him, handing it to Lin Mo. "Here, this will do just as well for Yu'er, she won't be able to taste the difference anyway."

Lin Mo found it amusing but didn't go too far. He took the red wine, poured a glass for An Youyu, and gently instructed, "This is the last glass. You can't drink any more after this, understand?"

Already drunk, An Youyu's rebellious nature was triggered. She cupped Lin Mo's face and rubbed it, saying, "Little brother should listen to his sister, but sister doesn't necessarily have to listen to little brother, understand?"

With that, under everyone's gaze, she picked up her wine glass and drank the red wine in one gulp.

After finishing her drink, she smacked her lips, her delicate eyebrows furrowing. "Something's not right. I want to drink the wine I just drank. That wine was delicious. This wine is not good."

Lin Mo held her in his arms and looked helplessly at Lin Yi, who was in the main seat. "Grandpa, this is the situation. What do you think?"

Lin Yi's beard twitched, and he hesitated for a long time before finally sighing heavily, "Fine, she's my future granddaughter-in-law, so I'll spoil her."

After saying that, he got up and carried the wine jar he had put away back to the dining table, even placing it directly in front of Lin Mo. "Let this girl drink as much as she wants. Grandpa is going all out today. I don't believe she can finish this half-jar of wine."

Lin Mo immediately started flattering, "Grandpa is so generous!"

He wrapped one arm around An Youyu's slender waist, and with the other hand he easily lifted the wine jar to pour the wine, not forgetting to pour himself a cup as well.

"Little Fish, come on, cheers!"

An Youyu raised her delicate hand high and called out in her childish voice, "Cheers!"

Everyone: "..."

Chapter 783 The Empty Wine Jar

"It's rare to encounter Brother Lin being so generous, so I must shamelessly drink another cup of fine wine."

Upon hearing Li Hongxiang's words, Lin Yi waved his hand dismissively, "Whatever, drink as much as you want. You can only drink three cups at most, but I don't believe you dare to drink three cups."

Li Hongxiang was taken aback. "Why don't you believe me?"

Lin Yi laughed, "You'll get drunk after three cups? I don't believe you, the chief of the Elders' Pavilion, would dare to get drunk in my house."

"Why wouldn't I dare? Since Brother Lin doesn't believe me, I'll prove it with facts."

Hearing Li Hongxiang's provocative words, Lin Yi wasn't angry. "Let him drink. Who can outdrink you? Anyway, once he's drunk, I'm going to take advantage of him and take some unflattering photos. Maybe those photos will automatically end up online. Tsk!"

Li Hongxiang: "..."

Threatened by Lin Yi, he really didn't dare to drink too much. After hesitating for a while, he drank the wine in his glass in one gulp and took the initiative to get up and say goodbye.

For Li Hongxiang, today is already very satisfying.

Not only did they settle their business, but they also had the unexpected bonus of a betting agreement with Lin Mo, and even got to taste the legendary spirit wine.

Three birds with one stone!

After the Lin family saw Li Hongxiang off, when they returned to the restaurant, Lin Xue, who was standing next to Lin Yi, suddenly exclaimed.

The commotion drew a light scolding from Lin Yi, "How old are you? Why are you making such a fuss?"

Lin Xue's expression was priceless. She pointed ahead and said, "Dad, look over there..."

Lin Yi looked in the direction his youngest daughter was pointing, and the next second, his eyes suddenly widened, and he was completely flustered.

At the dining table, Lin Mo and An Youyu were still toasting each other, but the wine jars that had been filled with wine had been placed upside down on the table.

Lin Yi felt a chill run down his spine and quickly stepped forward. "Xiao Mo, don't make me beat you up. Do you know how precious this wine is? Who told you to leave the wine jar like that?"

Lin Mo drank the last glass of wine, and he remained perfectly sober.

There's no way around it; with the Dionysus's Descent skill, it's almost impossible to get him drunk.

Hearing his grandfather's cold question, Lin Mo smiled and scratched his head, cautiously replying, "Grandpa, do you think there's a possibility?"

"What's possible?"

"The wine jar is empty."

"..."

Lin Yi stared wide-eyed in disbelief, quickly picked up the upside-down wine jar, and was immediately dumbfounded.

Indeed... there's no more alcohol!

His face twitched uncontrollably. "Where's the wine? Where's the wine in here?"

Lin Mo coughed dryly and gave an awkward smile. "Grandpa, do you think there's another possibility?"

"If you have something to say, say it, and if you have something to say, let it go!"

"Little Fish and I finished the wine."

"In the short time I was seeing someone off, you and Yu'er drank all the wine in here?"

"Correct."

Meeting his grandfather's gaze, Lin Mo felt a little guilty and whispered, "While you were seeing off Chief Li, I drank sixteen cups, and Xiaoyuer drank fifteen."

As he spoke, he glanced at An Youyu, who was slumped on the table, completely drunk, and a hidden smile flickered deep in his eyes.
