Zhang Tao grabbed the bottle and poured it into his mouth. The wine flowed down his chin onto his shirt, spreading a dark color on his chest.

The boys applauded, some even standing on their chairs. The entire box was filled with the aroma of fermented malt, mixed with the smell of barbecue and sweat, like a pot of boiling youth soup.

Su Xiaoqiang looked at Ye Fan surrounded by the crowd, the lights casting fine shadows on his profile.

He had clearly won, but he didn't look very happy. He just quietly accepted the compliments and jokes from his classmates.

That sense of alienation and detachment was like a transparent film, separating him from the surrounding noise.

"Squad leader! Let's play finger-guessing!" someone suddenly shouted.

Su Xiaoqiang turned around and saw Lin Xia being pushed by several girls towards the group of boys.

The squad leader, who usually wears a ponytail, let her hair down today, and her black hair fell to her waist like a waterfall.

She was wearing denim shorts and a white T-shirt, revealing a pair of slender legs that were dazzlingly white under the light.

"I won't..." Lin Xia waved her hands to refuse, her cheeks flushed.

"What are you afraid of! If you lose, let Ye Fan drink for you!" Zhang Tao said in a teasing tone, drawing a burst of ambiguous laughter.

Who didn't know that the squad leader liked Ye Fan for three whole years? Thanks to the squad leader for taking care of him for three years, let them be the best assist at this last moment!

Su Xiaoqiang clenched his wine glass.

She noticed Lin Xia's eyes quickly swept over Ye Fan, then ducked away like a frightened rabbit. She was too familiar with that hesitant look - she had seen it countless times in the mirror.

"I'll do it!"

Su Xiaoqiang suddenly stood up, and the chair scraped against the floor with a harsh sound. Everyone's eyes turned to her, including Ye Fan's eyes that were as calm as a lake.

She walked over to Ye Fan and deliberately pushed a boy away with her shoulder: "I'll row with you, senior!"

There was silence in the box for a moment, and then there was a louder booing.

Some people whistled, some banged the table, and some took out their cell phones to record the scene.

Everyone gave face to the girl who was also a junior high school student and who organized the party.

Chapter 54 The weird waiter, the coming killing!

Su Xiaoqiang felt her ears burning, but she held her chin higher. She had specially worn her new red dress today, which made her skin look as white as snow.

Ye Fan glanced at her, his lips curled up slightly: "What are you betting on?"

"If I win, you promise me one thing." Su Xiaoqiang looked him straight in the eye. "If I lose..." She bit her lower lip. "It's up to you."

The boys booed loudly. Ye Fan shook his head, seemingly amused by her bluntness. "Okay."

"Rock, scissors—"

"cloth!"

Su Xiaoqiang played scissors, and Ye Fan did the same. In the second round, they both played paper. In the third round, Su Xiaoqiang's scissors faced Ye Fan's paper again.

"I win," she announced, her voice trembling slightly with excitement.

Ye Fan nodded, raised his glass and drank it all: "Tell me, what's the matter?"

It all depends on luck, so he will accept the loss and will not deny it.

Su Xiaoqiang opened his mouth and was suddenly speechless.

She had wanted him to go to the amusement park with her—like a date. But now, in front of the whole class, this request seemed too ambiguous.

Just as she hesitated, a figure staggered in.

"It's...my turn!"

Lin Xia was already half drunk, holding a half-full bottle of beer in her hand, her eyes blurry. She stumbled and fell into Ye Fan's arms.

The box suddenly became so quiet that the hum of the air conditioner could be heard.

Everyone stared with wide eyes, watching their usually steady and self-possessed squad leader hanging on Ye Fan like a sloth.

"Deskmate?"

Ye Fan called out tentatively, his hands hanging in the air, not knowing where to put them.

"You don't know how to call my name? You haven't called my name for the past three years."

Lin Xia raised her head, and the tip of her nose almost touched Ye Fan's chin.

Her eyelashes cast fine shadows under the light, and her lips were glistening with alcohol. "Ye... Ye Fan..." She burped slightly, "You feel so cool..."

As she spoke, she actually pressed her hot cheek against Ye Fan's neck, and raised one leg restlessly, sitting directly on Ye Fan's thigh.

The edge of the denim shorts rubbed against Ye Fan's jeans, making a slight friction sound.

Su Xiaoqiang felt a surge of blood rushing to her head. She suddenly put down her wine glass, and the sound of the glass hitting the table made several classmates shrink their necks.

"Senior Lin is drunk," she said stiffly, reaching for the monitor's arm. "I'll take her to the bathroom."

Lin Xia, however, clung tighter like an octopus, mumbling incoherently: "No... I want to play with Ye Fan..." Her fingers unconsciously grabbed the hem of Ye Fan's T-shirt, revealing a slender waistline.

A rare crack appeared on Ye Fan's expression.

He gently grabbed Lin Xia's shoulders and tried to push her away, but she mistook it for an invitation to hug.

Lin Xia pressed herself close to him, and the fresh scent of shampoo mixed with the smell of alcohol hit his face.

"The class monitor usually looks quite serious..." a boy muttered.

"I didn't expect him to be so proactive when drunk..."

"Don't talk nonsense!" The girl behind him glared at him fiercely, "It's not like you all don't know how long the class monitor has liked Ye Fan."

"This is the last chance. If the squad leader doesn't take Ye Fan down now, there will be no chance in the future!"

The whispers of discussion pierced Su Xiaoqiang's ears like needles.

She looked at Lin Xia, who was almost lying on Ye Fan, her chest heaving violently.

The squad leader who was always gentle and polite was now tracing the shape of Ye Fan's collarbone with his fingertips, humming a tuneless song.

"I'll ask the waiter to get some hangover soup." Su Xiaoqiang turned and left, his nails digging deep into his palms.

How could it be that the banquet she had arranged had become someone else's? The pride of the little goddess would never allow such a thing to happen!

Lin Xia's giggling voice came from behind: "Ye Fan...your ears are red..." followed by the boys' ambiguous cheering.

Su Xiaoqiang quickened her pace, and the hem of her red skirt swept across the door frame of the box like a burning fire.

She had to quickly get a bowl of sobering soup to break this clumsy performance. Senior Brother Ye could only be hers!

The door of the box suddenly opened, and warm yellow light and noisy voices poured out.

Su Xiaoqiang turned around and looked up to see Ye Fan standing at the door with the unconscious Lin Xia hanging on his shoulder.

"She's been clamoring to find you." Ye Fan said helplessly, carefully supporting the squad leader who was staggering.

Lin Xia squinted her eyes to identify him for a while, then suddenly broke into a brilliant smile: "Xiao Qiang!" She broke free from Ye Fan's hand, rushed over and hugged Su Xiao Qiang, "I like Xiao Qiang the most!"

A strong smell of alcohol hit me in the face.

Su Xiaoqiang stiffly accepted this sudden hug. Lin Xia's hair brushed against her cheek, tickling her. Through the thin fabric, she could feel the other person's high body temperature and rapid heartbeat.

"Senior Lin...you've drunk too much." Su Xiaoqiang said softly, unconsciously softening his tone.

Lin Xia raised her head, her nose almost touching Su Xiaoqiang's. Her eyes were wet, as if covered with a layer of mist. "Xiaoqiang looks so beautiful today..." Her fingers stroked Su Xiaoqiang's red dress, "Like...like a bride..."

Su Xiaoqiang's breath hitched. Lin Xia's thumb unconsciously rubbed her collarbone, and the touch felt like a feather.

The distance was so close that she could count the number of the other person's eyelashes and smell the faint scent of beer between his lips and teeth.

"Take her to the Sober Bar."

Ye Fan spoke helplessly and reached out to pull Lin Xia over.

He couldn't take Lin Xia to the men's restroom, so he had to trouble Su Xiaoqiang.

Lin Xia hung back on Ye Fan like a koala, muttering words like "Xiao Qiang is beautiful".

Su Xiaoqiang stood up, and the wrinkles on her skirt looked like a tangled mess of thoughts.

"Senior." She called out to Ye Fan, who was about to leave, "The bet just now..."

"You can tell me anytime. As long as it's something I can do, I'll definitely do my best!"

Ye Fan looked back at her and said with a smile. Lin Xia's head rested on his shoulder, and her breathing had become even and long.

"Okay then, I'll take Senior Lin to the bathroom now."

Su Xiaoqiang cheered.

"Well, I'll trouble you then."

Ye Fan nodded and helped the sleeping Lin Xia towards the bathroom.

The banquet was going on in a lively manner. The boys drank boxes of beer one after another. Most of the boys had red faces, and some even lay on the table unconscious.

The girls also drank a lot of wine in the lively atmosphere, and even those who didn’t drink got drunk even without drinking.

Throwing aside the pressure, everyone was chatting happily, and they all felt light and airy, as if flying on the clouds.

Ye Fan sat in the middle and admired this unique scenery. He was a little drunk.

Even if the alcohol content of the water of life reaches 95%, after being filtered through the kidneys of the royal hybrid, it will never make Ye Fan's brain feel drunk.

Unless Ye Fan voluntarily relaxes the filtering ability of his kidneys, like now, he actually likes the feeling of letting go of all the pressure.

Under the anesthesia of alcohol, the usually troubled brain calms down, leaving only the pure enjoyment of the here and now.

At this time, a waiter came in. He silently cleared the empty bottles on the table and approached Ye Fan step by step...

Chapter 55 The sudden assassin and the king’s wrath!

The light from the crystal chandelier cast a cold glow on the dagger.

When the short blade slipped out of the waiter's sleeve, Su Xiaoqiang was raising his glass towards Ye Fan.

She saw the cold light splitting the air, saw the dark blue nine-dragon tattoo on the waiter's wrist, and saw Ye Fan's pupils suddenly shrink.

The body moves faster than the mind.
