All the goddesses in the world are lusting after my body.

"Before saying such things, at least look at my messages first, right?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Tang smiled and, taking advantage of the dim lighting, placed a light kiss on Lilith's cheek.

However, even a kiss that wasn't imbued with much emotion was enough to make Lilith, who was immersed in love, completely lose her composure and forget all her struggles and stubbornness.

She was stunned for a long time before she recovered, but it seemed that she had already forgotten that she was angry with Jiang Tang. She only remembered his words and hurriedly went to find her phone.

The girl's dazed and absent-minded appearance also had a unique beauty, while Jiang Tang had already straightened up, and could be described as "proud" as he met everyone's gaze.

But wherever his gaze fell, no one dared to meet his eyes.

When you don't feel awkward, it's the other person who feels awkward.

In Jiang Tang's mind, since he had already been misunderstood, wouldn't it be a huge loss if he didn't actually kiss her?

He never thought about clearing up the misunderstanding. Others' misunderstandings were like a sharp knife, stabbing straight at him. But what if he picked up the knife first?

They have an attitude of "I did it, so what?"

Then their misunderstandings become weak and powerless.

Just like moral blackmail, it won't work on people who have no morals.

If it really comes to that, Jiang Tang would rather be an immoral person than give in to the moral blackmail of his own people.

Lilith frantically pulled her phone out of her bag, and Jiang Tang's reply message lit up on the still-locked screen.

What did I ask myself again?

Is it still the same old "What are you doing?"? It seems so... It's unoriginal, and it makes you not want to reply.

But Jiang Tang not only replied to himself.

Moreover, Jiang Tang's reply was...

Jiang Tang: I'm drinking with some people. Do you want to come to that bar from last time if you're free?

The gloom in Lilith's eyes gradually disappeared, and then a glimmer of light began to gather.

Although Jiang Tang's response was not perfect, it was more of a straightforward reply to the facts.

But that's enough.

Who needs flowery words? Reality is enough of a surprise. In the eyes of someone who cares about you, what you are doing is a very important thing.

Because this reveals to Lilith that... Jiang Tang has not hidden anything about himself, including the time, place, and what he is doing.

Jiang Tang didn't lie to himself either.

He even invited me to drink, which is enough to prove that he is open and aboveboard, rather than having a secret rendezvous.

His relationship with this so-called store manager named Liu Chuyun was not improper, and his resignation should have been voluntary...

Warmth emanated from above her head. Lilith tilted her head back, her eyes glazed over, her pure golden hair swaying as she sniffed.

It was Jiang Tang. He touched his head.

I feel like I've been looked down upon, treated like a girl who needs to be coaxed... That bad guy.

So, would you like to drink together?

"……want!"

Lilith's eyes flashed with a defiant light, but more so with a sharp confrontation towards Liu Chuyun, who stood behind Jiang Tang, still smiling and calmly drinking her wine.

The latter even waved at her, acting all amicable as if nothing had happened.

On the long bar counter, Jiang Tang returned to his seat. He saw the fruit platter in front of him, picked up a slice of watermelon, and began to taste it.

To his left was Liu Chuyun, calmly drinking her wine; to his right was Lilith, waiting for the sommelier to bring her a glass.

Seeing Jiang Tang enjoying the watermelon so much, Lilith reached out and took a slice. She took small bites of the seedless, sandy flesh, which tasted delicious. Her big eyes widened immediately.

"It's time to roll the dice," Liu Chuyun said matter-of-factly.

The game between the two is not over yet, or rather, it is about to end.

Jiang Tang nodded.

"Okay, my number is 55661."

Without any hesitation, he opened the dice cup in front of him.

It's a simple comparison of sizes, but there's a special rule: if you roll a 1 on a die, that 1 can be used as any number. Six sixes are generally the largest, but six ones can beat it.

Jiang Tang thought he had the victory in the bag and smiled as he looked at Liu Chuyun.

Before opening the dice cup, the latter drank the wine in her cup in one gulp. Jiang Tang guessed that even though she had won so many rounds against him, she had drunk no less wine than he had.

That goes beyond gambling; it's purely about creating an atmosphere and getting drunk.

Jiang Tang didn't want her to get him drunk, otherwise it would be terrible if it happened like last time...

Yes, Jiang Tang had actually been drugged by Liu Chuyun once, and when he woke up again, he was in Liu Chuyun's house, on her bed, with only fragmented memories remaining.

But don't get the wrong idea. It's highly unlikely that someone would have sex while drunk, because you can't do *that* when you're intoxicated...

But that doesn’t mean Jiang Tang didn’t do anything else.

Some things... that make him feel ashamed whenever he thinks about them.

Liu Chuyun slowly and gently lifted a crack in the dice cup, peeked inside, and her smile deepened.

Lilith craned her neck to see what tricks this woman had up her sleeve this time.

The girl had great faith in Jiang Tang's skills because he had once perfectly surpassed her.

Lilith seemed to have forgotten that she was a complete novice when it came to drinking, which meant that Jiang Tang was actually playing at the Bronze or Silver level, so it wasn't surprising that he could win.

But today, the person he's facing... is a king.

The next second, Liu Chuyun suddenly opened the dice cup and said in a light and triumphant tone.

"Four sixes, one five, I'm the best!"

"How could such a thing happen!" Lilith exclaimed indignantly on behalf of Jiang Tang.

“I’ll honor my bet. If Jiang Tang thinks I cheated, then this round can be disregarded.”

"Of course I believe you, I'll drink it."

Jiang Tang's trust in Liu Chuyun made Lilith's side grit their teeth and feel a bit sour.

But it seems that Liu Chuyun really didn't have a chance to do anything. While Jiang Tang was leaving, she was talking to herself.

Lilith watched with some resentment as Liu Chuyun refilled Jiang Tang's wine glass. The pale red wine was like blood, and the way the woman held the wine bottle upside down with her slender fingertips looked like a devil tempting people to hell.

The wine glass was filled, and Jiang Tang was about to pick it up, ready to accept defeat.

A slender white hand grasped the glass beforehand and took it away from Jiang Tang. Although she hesitated subconsciously when faced with a whole glass of wine, the girl bravely closed her eyes and drank it all in one gulp.

Its snow-white neck swayed, like a beautiful swan drinking water.

It was Lilith; she was going to drink the whole cup on Jiang Tang's behalf.

Her brows furrowed, clearly showing her discomfort, but if Liu Chuyun was an alluring devil, then she wanted to become an angel who would suffer in Jiang Tang's place...

The moment she put down her glass, the girl held her forehead, clearly feeling a little dizzy.

She really does get drunk easily... especially noticeable when she's with Jiang Tang.

This prompted Jiang Tang to look at her with concern.

"Lilith?"

"...I was just thirsty, this wine is quite good!"

What a lame excuse, but the girl's earnest expression made it hard to expose her.

"Hehe, drink more if you like. Like I said, it's on the house." Liu Chuyun smiled and urged again, as if she thought the fun wasn't enough.

"Of course I want to drink, but I don't need your fake generosity. Jiang Tang and I will pay the bills from my card."

As she spoke, Lilith rummaged through her bag, pulled out a black card, and tossed it onto the bar. It turns out that the scene in the novel where someone pulls out a black card so easily actually exists in real life.

However, Lilith couldn't quite grasp the essence of that kind of pretentious slap-in-the-face act, resulting in her pretentious act coming across as completely awkward in front of Jiang Tang and Liu Chuyun.

Of course, the main reason is that Lilith's identity is what it is, so there's no sense of her pretending to be weak while actually being strong, and the feeling of satisfaction is just so-so.

Jiang Tang couldn't help but chuckle at the girl's puffed-up face.

Liu Chuyun also laughed.

Lilith complained.

"What are you laughing at?!"

"No, no, this is the first time I've ever seen the original Centurion Black Gold Card. The young lady's generosity is truly astonishing."

As she spoke, Liu Chuyun calmly took the card, examined and stroked it closely, and sighed repeatedly.

But her small business doesn't need such a black card. The meal will still be free, but let's just pretend the card was swiped, so as not to hurt the young lady's proud self-esteem.

Lilith was flattered, especially by a woman she considered a rival... she naturally felt quite pleased with herself.

"It's nothing, but I'm surprised you have such good taste... Keep drinking! What game were you guys playing? Can I join in?"

"Miss's alcohol tolerance..." Liu Chuyun seemed hesitant to speak.

Lilith was immediately indignant.

"Don't talk like I'm doomed! Jiang Tang, step aside, I'm going to have a drinking contest with her today!"

The girl leaned closer, and her fearless, youthful energy made Jiang Tang lean back a little.

Liu Chuyun smiled helplessly.

"Since you insist, Miss Lilith, then there's nothing I can do. Dice or cards?"

"I'm fine with anything!"

Jiang Tang glanced at Liu Chuyun with a twitch at the corner of his mouth.

The latter blinked his eyes, which had taken on a cunning glint.

How could he not know what this woman was up to?

But Lilith is so easily provoked and falls into the trap.
