"How is it? I told you it tasted good, didn't I?"

Watching Jiang Ran down the wine in one gulp, Wen Zhi blinked and smiled brightly.

Jiang Ran paused, holding the cup, and looked at Wen Zhi with some suspicion.

He was a little confused. Why was she looking at him like that? Did she put something in the drink?!

"It does taste good, there's practically no alcohol flavor left."

Beside her, Wen Ling had already finished a glass of wine. She placed the glass in front of Wen Zhi and gestured with her hand.

As if encouraged, Wen Zhi smiled and poured Wen Ling another cup.

Deng Lanlan, who was carrying a barrel of wine, also poured a glass for Fang Kai.

None of the people at the table reacted strangely.

Moreover, the cup was newly arrived, and Jiang Ran could even see water droplets left over from the washing process.

There shouldn't be any problems... right?

No matter what, Wen Zhi wouldn't be so crazy as to sacrifice everyone else just to get rid of him...

"Brother-in-law?"

Wen Zhi called out and gestured to the wine glass in front of Jiang Ran.

Seeing that she was still holding a spoon, indicating that she would refill his glass after he finished drinking, Jiang Ran reacted faster than his brain. Without thinking, he picked up the glass and downed the wine in one gulp.

"I'll leave that bucket here. If anyone wants some, please help themselves!"

Wen Zhi pointed to the floor next to Jiang Ran's feet. Behind her, Deng Lanlan understood and placed the bucket where Wen Zhi pointed.

After everyone was seated, the meal continued.

The phone call seemed like a minor incident; immersed in the excitement of Jiang Ran serving her food and cooking it for her, Wen Ling completely forgot about it.

Three against two.

Wen Zhi and Deng Lanlan didn't eat much, but they kept glancing at Jiang Ran and Wen Ling, watching their glasses slowly empty.

"Sizzle—"

A sound of a chair being moved rang out, and Deng Lanlan subconsciously looked to her side, only to see Fang Kai holding an empty glass, as if he was about to refill the glass.

With lightning speed, she pulled Fang Kai back to his seat.

Fang Kai was taken aback and looked at Deng Lanlan with some confusion.

"Sit down!"

Deng Lanlan lowered her voice and scolded him.

Fang Kai had just sat up halfway when he glanced stiffly at Deng Lanlan, only to be pulled back down onto the stool by her in the next second.

"You should drink something else; that stuff isn't for you!"

Deng Lanlan kept her voice very low, and occasionally glanced at the two people opposite her, as if afraid they would hear her.

Fang Kai scratched his head, looking confused. "Didn't we just say that if we wanted to drink, we should get it ourselves...?"

"Are you genuinely stupid or just pretending? Can't you even tell?!"

Deng Lanlan rolled her eyes, and seeing that Fang Kai looked even more confused, she leaned close to his ear and said, "That stuff is 50-proof whiskey, and you're still drunk?!"

"Bourbon...?"

Fang Kai was stunned for a moment, and after a long pause, he managed to utter those two words.

His voice was loud, and Jiang Ran looked up, peering over through the steam from the hot pot, and asked, "What are you guys talking about?"

Wen Ling, who was about to put the cup to her lips, was taken aback and looked confused.

"Nothing, nothing. We were just talking about the new TV series that came out recently. By the way, sis, I'm thinking of going to the US for a few days in a few days. Could you sponsor me some money?"

Wen Zhi changed the subject without changing her expression, even putting on a pleading look with a "please, please" expression.

Wen Ling was in a good mood today, and for some reason, her head was buzzing a little, especially with the steam rising from the hot pot in front of her, making the room feel hot.

She had already taken off her coat, but her cheeks still felt burning hot.

"Yeah, go if you want to."

Wen Ling responded and casually pushed the empty cup in front of Jiang Ran.

Jiang Ran had just finished another drink. Seeing the extra empty cup in front of him, Jiang Ran understood immediately. Without thinking much, he used the wine bucket at his feet to pour a cup for Wen Ling and himself.

It's really strange, why does this fruit wine make me thirstier the more I drink?

Jiang Ran muttered to himself as he looked at the hot pot with bubbling chili oil in front of him.

It's probably because of the spiciness.

When eating hot pot, a food that is high in oil and spice, plain warm water is no longer enough to make you swallow it. You have to drink something chilled to soothe your taste buds.

Seeing the actions of the two people opposite her, Wen Zhi's eyes crinkled with laughter.

Knowing her sister was in a good mood today, Wen Zhi took the opportunity to suggest, "Sis, how about we play cards after we finish eating?"

"play cards?"

Not only were the two main characters across the table stunned, but Deng Lanlan, who was still lecturing Fang Kai, was also stunned.

What's going on? Playing cards? How could Premier Wen possibly play this kind of game...?

"OK."

Wen Ling smiled slightly, put down her cup, and looked at Jiang Ran: "Do you want to play?"

"Whatever. I can't sleep after eating so much today, so playing cards to digest my food is a good idea."

As long as it's normal communication, Jiang Ran doesn't have any objections.

Wen Zhi immediately perked up, "Shall we play cards or mahjong?"

She finished speaking, glanced back at the five people at the table, and quickly said, "If we're going to play mahjong, there are five of us and one more person. How about we play cards instead? Let's play 10:30, let's start!"

"Chi..."

Just as Deng Lanlan was about to speak, she saw Wen Zhi frantically blinking at her.

"..."

Looking at Jiang Ran, Wen Ling asked, "Do you know how to play the game she mentioned?"

"I've heard of it... but..."

Jiang Ran recalled that he had gone out with his roommates once during college, but it was too early then. He didn't drink much, so he didn't know much about drinking parties.

Seeing Jiang Ran's somewhat hesitant expression, as if afraid the two would change their minds, Wen Zhi's eyes flashed, and she immediately made up her mind: "Then let's play this. Don't worry, Lanlan and Fang Kai don't know how to play either. I'll be the dealer and teach the four of you later. It's very simple, I guarantee you'll learn it!"

After saying that, Wen Zhi rushed to the coffee table in the living room and quickly picked up a hand of cards.

Glancing at the nearly empty beer barrel on the ground, Wen Zhi said with a smile, "Since we're playing cards, let's have the loser drink beer!"

Instead of asking a question, Wen Zhi looked at Deng Lanlan and said, "Lanlan, Fang Kai, go to the freezer. I put a few buckets of raw liquor there. Go get them!"

They just finished fruit wine and now they want me to drink beer?!

Jiang Ran touched her slightly flushed cheeks.

Was he really spicier from the hot pot?!

Seeing that Fang Kai and Deng Lanlan had already stood up, and neither of them seemed drunk at all, Jiang Ran frowned: "They've had too much to drink..."

"That beer is only 3 or 4 degrees alcohol, brother-in-law, don't tell me you can get drunk from just a few sips!"

"Besides, we're not gambling. We're already out here, what would it be like if we didn't have a good time!"

That's true, but...

Jiang Ran looked at Wen Ling.

The other person didn't speak, but just leaned back in their seat, their cheeks flushed just like his.

Wen Zhi's face was also flushed, probably from the spiciness...

Alcohol with an alcohol content of 3 or 4 degrees is indeed unlikely to cause intoxication.

Jiang Ran didn't think much of it and tacitly agreed.

Seeing this, Wen Zhi's lips curled up slightly.

mock up!

If I don't get you two drunk today, I'm not a Wen!
