Chapter 528: Liu Yuran has truly sacrificed too much for this family!
"It should be so; Third Master Tang, please take Young Master Li to rest first." Master Zhang speaks up in agreement, and Liu Laoban also nods noncommittally.
"No need. Although I cannot hold my liquor, since you all are so enthusiastic, how could I let everyone be disappointed?" Li Chen smiles and shakes his head slightly. He understands Tang Yue's meaning, but this kind of thing doesn't need to be rushed; with rare leisure, he naturally wants to reward himself well.
The blushing Master Zhang and Liu Laoban exchange glances, both seeing excitement in the other's eyes.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect Young Master Li to be a man of such temperament. Since that's the case, Zhang will boldly toast Young Master Li again!"
"Right, right, right, I also want to toast Young Master Li!"
In their eyes, Tang Yue had absolutely no reason to lie to them about Li Chen's alcohol tolerance.
Now that Li Chen is in this state, it's clearly because Tang Yue accidentally let it slip, making him feel he lost face, so he wants to win it back.
Drinking—as veterans of the business world, they are professionals!
At worst, they'll just keep this Imperial clan Young Master happy for a while and then pretend to be drunk; who knows, they might even earn some favor!
Thinking this, the two have already raised their glasses to Li Chen.
To this, Li Chen naturally refuses no one.
Tang Yue is different from the two; he knows Li Chen can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk. He originally just found a random excuse to let Li Chen leave, never expecting Li Chen would actually want to stay.
But since things have reached this point, he naturally dares not expose it.
Soon, the scene changes from the two merchants finding excuses to toast, to Li Chen occasionally raising his glass to signal the two merchants.
"Drink, drink!" The two merchants have long since drunk their bellies full and round, their faces red and ears hot, their speech even becoming stuttered.
But do they dare not drink? The answer is naturally no.
At this moment, Master Zhang and Liu Laoban have already cursed Tang Yue's ancestors eighteen generations over a thousand times in their hearts. You damn bastard, you actually said Young Master Li couldn't hold his liquor? You call this not holding liquor? You're about to make us two veterans of the wine table vomit!
The two old drunks wanted to show off, but Li Chen hasn't even felt a thing.
Seeing the scene gradually becoming cold, Tang Yue smiles and finds a topic: "Master Liu, I heard Madame Zhang Liu Liu Shi was a rare beauty back in the day; how did you manage to win her over?"
The topics men can talk about are nothing more than women, cultivation, and finally, making money.
As for making money and cultivation, Tang Yue naturally knows he can't talk to Li Chen about those, but women are definitely okay!
Master Zhang hiccups upon hearing this, his face filled with pride as he giggles foolishly: "Hehehe, my wife had so many suitors back then; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say the threshold of my father-in-law's house was worn down by those proposing marriage.
All sorts of young masters, all sorts of cultivation geniuses were everywhere, but in the end, didn't it still fall into the hands of this merchant!"
"You all don't know, Old Zhang is famously doting on his wife.
I've heard Madame Zhang Liu Liu Shi even uses milk brought from the grasslands to bathe.
You look at Madame Zhang Liu Liu Shi's skin; it's maintained in a way that doesn't look like a married woman's at all. Saying it's like a seven or eight-year-old child's, where you could pinch water out of it, wouldn't be an exaggeration!" Liu Laoban smiles and joins in when the topic turns to Madame Zhang Liu Liu Shi.
"Hmm, the skin does look tender." Li Chen nods slightly.
Seeing Li Chen nodding in agreement, Master Zhang becomes even more spirited: "Hahaha, everyone is our own people, so I won't hide it from you all; when we share a bed, I don't dare use too much force, for fear of breaking her skin!"
"Third Master Tang and Liu Laoban should have heard some street rumors, right? I, Zhang, go to the Immortal Fragrance Pavilion every few days, right?
I won't hide it from you all, it's actually because I'm holding back; I'm truly afraid of breaking the one at home!" ===== CHAPTER 529 =====
