Even as a "normie," I'm completely oblivious to it.

In reality, those two haughty fighting maids were quite happy to fight over the job of driving for her brother!

Yu Zhe and Qi Xinye also picked up their wine glasses and looked at them.

The glass contains a pale yellowish-orange liquid that smells like alcohol.

Yu Zhe, who understood the situation, immediately frowned: "Champagne?"

“Yeah! Champagne!” Yu Che stood up and playfully raised her glass. “The three of us had a great talk today! Cough... even though it seems like we didn’t really talk much, the atmosphere has to be right! We need a glass of champagne to celebrate our victory!”

She stood up and raised her glass.

Qi Xinye looked at Yu Zhe with some distress and asked for his opinion.

What opinions could Yu Zhe possibly have?

He put down his wine glass, walked around the table, and pressed Yu Che down to sit: "You brat, don't let me beat you up. You still talk about Lu Ling and Lu Yao, are you going through a rebellious phase? You little kid, how dare you drink in front of me? And don't you know that Sister Ye's constitution is such that she can't drink alcohol?"

Logically speaking, children from large families like theirs should have plenty of opportunities to come into contact with alcohol, but unfortunately, Yu Zhe and Yu Che have hardly ever drunk any alcohol. This has nothing to do with whether their families are rich or not; they are simply not interested in it.

"Hmm..." Yu Che glanced at her glass, "But brother... it's not just for today, it's also to celebrate what you promised me a few days ago... having a sip of champagne isn't too much to ask, right? Look, there's only a tiny bit in this glass. Oh, and that big-breasted girl's glass has orange juice! I arranged it all in advance!"

"this..."

If that's the case... there really isn't much wine in this glass.

Ever since Yu Che confessed her feelings that day, she seems to have been suppressing them. In order to prevent her from becoming too clingy, I should give her a chance to vent.

Yu Zhe sighed softly, picked up her wine glass, poured the already meager amount of wine into the empty teacup next to her, and then handed it back to her.

"That's enough for you. No more, and that won't do."

"Uh... isn't this just ordering the bottom of the cup...?"

"Huh?! You have a problem with that?"

"Brother, I have no objections!"

After saying that, Yu Zhe raised his glass and looked at Qi Xinye next to him: "Sister Ye, let's join in her commotion, it's nothing anyway."

"Okay... this is just orange juice, so it's fine, but Xiao Zhe, this is real alcohol, you don't usually drink this... is it okay?"

"No problem, don't underestimate a tough guy's ability to down a drink in one gulp. Come on, cheers!"

""cheers!""

The glasses clinked together with a crisp sound.

The three of them simultaneously brought their wine glasses to their lips.

Qi Xinye drank the orange juice without any pressure, while Yu Zhe frowned and downed it in one gulp.

Only... Yu Che, the one who initiated this event?

"Cough cough cough! I... I'm sorry, I'll try again."

She had only taken a tiny sip of the wine at the bottom of her glass when she started coughing violently.

So... why pretend to be so strong when you've never drunk any alcohol?

All three present understood that Yu Che wanted to show Yu Zhe that she had grown and was now capable of standing on her own.

She was about to raise her glass to drink again.

Yu Zhe quickly snatched the wine glass from her: "Stop! You only have one chance. If you don't succeed, you don't drink. What are you trying to prove here? Hey, don't grab it! Listen to me!"

"Ah! What a catastrophic failure! My brother has completely treated me like a child!"

Qi Xinye also laughed and said, "Really, Yu Che, don't force yourself if you can't drink. Being able to drink doesn't mean a person is any more capable or mature."

"Stop talking if you're drinking orange juice!"

"..."

Fine, I won't say it then.

Seeing that he couldn't win the wine glass, Yu Che could only let out a mournful cry.

"Brother, please give me one more chance, just one...tsk, who is this?"

Just as she was thinking about acting cute with Yu Zhe, Yu Che's work phone rang.

She answered the phone: "Yes, it's me. What? You can't handle this? Okay, it's the 34th floor, right? I'll go down and take a look. You guys go to the technical department and ask for help."

After hanging up the phone, she walked apologetically to Yu Zhe: "Brother, there seems to be a problem with the IT department, involving a bit of a business dispute. I have to go down and take a look. Give me...give me three minutes! I'll be right back!"

"What can you possibly see in three minutes? I'll go with you anyway."

"No, no, no, I can't drink. My brother is here, so I need to at least prove my abilities a little. I need to prove that I'm different from that Cai Zixiao. You sit here, I'll be right back!"

Zixiao, you've been caught in the crossfire again.

Seeing Yu Che dash out in a flash, Yu Zhe shrugged helplessly.

But Yu Che, after leaving the house, turned back and poked his head out the door, instructing, "Big-breasted girl! While I'm not here, don't do anything strange to my brother. If I find out, I'll..."

"Alright, alright, go ahead, nothing will happen."

Qi Xinye smiled wryly and "guaranteeed" that she couldn't leave without doing so.

However, Qi Xinye herself also

I know that if we don't do something during these precious few minutes...

Wouldn't that be a huge loss?

13. Let's cause trouble!

Making trouble is a clever and effective tactic.

Having come this far, Qi Xinye has gradually come to understand exactly where the gap between her and Yu Che lies.

That means they won't cause trouble!

Now is an opportunity.

Yu Zhe watched Yu Che leave, closed the door, and then turned back to Qi Xinye with a smile, saying, "Sister Ye, don't mind her. She's very disrespectful. When we were little, she used to call you 'sister,' but now... cough, never mind."

Yu Zhe's gaze shifted slightly. Actually, the way she addresses you now is quite accurate, isn't it?

"Haha... It's okay. Yu Che has been like this for a long time, always treating me like an enemy. It's not hard to understand. Hey, compared to this... Xiao Zhe, can I have a sip of the wine in this glass?"

"Ok?"

Yu Zhe looked in the direction Qi Xinye was pointing.

She was referring to the portion of wine that Yu Zhe had just poured from Yu Che's cup into an empty teacup.

Yu Zhe turned around helplessly: "I say, Sister Ye... why are you suddenly acting like that girl Yu Che? Alcohol isn't a good thing. Didn't you just say that being able to drink doesn't prove how capable a person is? It's irrelevant. Besides, your constitution isn't suited for alcohol, you haven't forgotten, have you?"

"That's true...but..."

Qi Xinye stared at the glass of wine. If Yu Zhe had said that normally, she, being the eldest and most sensible, would probably have given up on trying it.

But... those two words that I had just made up my mind resurfaced in my mind.

Do something!

She moved closer to Yu Zhe, picked up a strand of his silver hair, and bent down to smell it.

"Hmm... Xiao Zhe's hair still smells so good today, is he still using the same shampoo?"

Stop grabbing my hair and smelling it all the time! Can't you at least give a tough guy the most basic respect?!

"Uh... Sister Ye, don't follow Yun'er's example, okay? Also, just say what you want to say, don't change the subject!"

"Alright..."

That's true. If we delay any longer, Yu Che will be back soon, and any things we want to do will face ten times the obstacles.

Qi Xinye pointed to the half-glass of wine again.

"Xiao Zhe, didn't you say earlier that Yu Che shouldn't drink because she's a child? But I'm two years older than both of you, so I'm not a child in your eyes anymore... So, having just one sip isn't too much to ask, right?"

Hey, you're trying to twist the facts here!

Yu Zhe quickly retorted, "No, no, no, Sister Ye, of course you're not a child. But as I just said, we don't let her drink because she's young, and we don't let you drink because of your constitution. You get drunk as soon as you touch alcohol, so why do you drink at all!"

Being exposed...

Qi Xinye's cheeks puffed out, like a little hamster, revealing an unhappy and sulky expression.

Since we've already decided to cause trouble, how can we stop now!

Qi Xinye did not give up. Instead, she took a step forward, placed her hands on Yu Zhe's legs, and looked into Yu Zhe's eyes with a flushed face.

"Xiao Zhe...so what if I'm drunk? At worst...at worst I'll just fall asleep. Can you take your sister home later? Or...are you just not going to take care of me after I get drunk...?"

"No...that's not how it works..."

Too, too close! Yu Zhe felt a soft "pressure" up close!

"What's going on?"

Uh... how is Yu Zhe supposed to tell her this?

It turns out that Sister Ye always thought that she would fall asleep immediately after getting drunk.

But... the few times Yu Zhe saw her drunk, she would ramble on and on before finally falling asleep, which was nothing like what you said!

Seeing her pitiful look, Yu Zhe had no choice but to tell the truth.

"No... Sister Ye, listen to me, when you're drunk you don't just go to sleep, you always say strange things, which isn't good for you, anyway... Sister Ye?!"

Yu Zhe was still earnestly explaining the pros and cons to her when Qi Xinye suddenly reached out, picked up the teacup, and tried to drink it.

"Xiao Zhe, you're trying to lie to me again... No way, I wouldn't do what you say, just you wait!"

Gudong!

Following Yu Zhe's example of drinking, Qi Xinye downed her drink in one gulp.

Sigh... Don't blame Yu Zhe for not stopping her. His hand was being held down by something soft and he couldn't move. Besides, judging from her determined look, there was no way to stop her even if he wanted to.

"Cough...I'm done drinking! Xiao Zhe, look, I'm fine...I'm fine, aren't I? Hey...why are you spinning around..."

Yu Zhe patted his forehead and shook his head helplessly.

There's nothing more to say.
