Chapter 2565: with translation of chapter title
"Boss is certainly formidable." Su Yun said with a disdainful face.
"Well, Boss, you don't know how hard it was for me when I first arrived; just trying to see any review committee member was difficult. After three or five days without seeing anyone, I thought, with this time, I might as well be happier doing Shou Bing at home."
"What happened next?" Su Yun had already opened the iron-capped Moutai, a rich liquor aroma assailing the nose, Zheng Ren slightly tipsy.
"I don't know from which day it started, um... until one day Professor Brown suddenly called me, asking me to go to his place for a sit." Rudolf Wagner professor said, "Emma, Boss, you don't know how scared I was then."
"Promising."
"I guess it's because you got your work done on your side; that bunch of nonsense usually doesn't give me a good face, yet they can call me to go to his place for a sit? I guess if I don't go, he'll come running over."
"But at that time they completely confused me, and I recklessly went to Professor Brown's house and drank alcohol for an Evening."
Zheng Ren smiled, thinking it should be Thus term: Thus term: Kelisidian having obtained permission from Old Luoqie, after which the Bruhl Family stepped forward.
"Later Professor Brown pretended to be drunk, asking me how I knew His Excellency Ke Li." Rudolf Wagner professor said, "His Excellency Ke Li is such a big shot; how could I know him? But I don't know him, my Boss knows him."
"Fugui'er, things got convenient later, right?" Zheng Ren asked with a smile.
"Mm." The professor said: "Until the end I heard that Lafusen, the chair of the evaluation committee, went to Di Du to give lectures, and I knew it was almost done. But until yesterday Evening there was no word. Boss, Yun Ge'er, you don't know my heart, it shattered into eight pieces, fell to the ground and I can't piece them together."
"It's fine, hurry up and sober up." Zheng Ren said: "From now on, I estimate you'll have to answer many calls."
"Mm, it's not like that." Rudolf Wagner professor said: "I hadn't even woken up when the phone startled me. They said the website has already posted the winners' list; we are the sole winners in biology and medicine."
"I still thought I was dreaming; I was just about to go back to sleep when the video came in."
"Drink less." Zheng Ren habitually advised: "I estimate there will be a lot of media lately..."
"Boss, you're so talkative, hurry up and drink." Su Yun nudged Zheng Ren aside with her shoulder, holding her wine cup, she raised it toward the professor on the video, "Fugui'er, let's celebrate our Nobel Prize, cheers!"
Rudolf Wagner professor was already happily dazed; he looked around in confusion, still couldn't find alcohol. Finally he took a bottle of pure water, used water as wine, and everyone took a sip from afar.
"When are you returning to Heidelberg?" Su Yun finished her three-liang three cup, then asked.
"I still haven't figured it out, my head feels buzzing and painful. Going back to listen to their empty flattery is really not as good as returning to Di Du to drink together with us." Rudolf Wagner professor said.
"Then come back, let's go to Xiang Shan to see the red leaves." Su Yun said, "Let's have a good drink, not returning until drunk."
Zheng Ren truly couldn't understand why celebrating must involve drinking, but it seems it's always been like this since ancient times. No matter how he struggles, he probably can't surpass those four ancient words.
Just thinking about the countless drinking gatherings lately, Zheng Ren started to get a headache, even if he doesn't have to drink himself. Just the socializing is enough to make him worried and troubled.
"Mm!" Rudolf Wagner professor happily replied: "On my side I'll go thank the evaluation committee, then I'll head back."
"Then that's it, turn it off." Su Yun said, "We'll start drinking; today we definitely have to get the Boss drunk. Usually we don't drink, but for such a big occasion not drinking would be inexcusable."
"Yun Ge'er, you must get the Boss utterly confused!" the professor happily said: "Then give me a photo; I want to see what the Boss looks like when he's utterly confused."
Everyone burst into laughter, Zheng Ren cut off the signal.
Su Yun poured another cup of wine, smiling and saying: "Boss, around this time last year it seemed you had just had an incident and were sent to the Emergency Department, right?"
"Still a few days away." Zheng Ren recalled last year's events, feeling as if in a dream.
"It's really fast; this year we'll win the Nobel Prize." Su Yun said, "Come on, let's drink first, then you tell me what secrets the Fifth Edition of External Medicine actually has, okay?"
"Ha." Zheng Ren looked at the cocktail before him, feeling somewhat troubled.
Looking very pretty, Su Yun's bartending skills are quite excellent. Eight layers of different colors, bright and sparkling, looking like insect-repelling pagoda candy.
"Is it due to different densities?" Zheng Ren held the cocktail glass, asking an unrelated question in a rather dull manner.
"Yes, each liquid has a different density; you need a very delicate technique to mix them together while keeping distinct layers." Su Yun said proudly: "Take it slow, this is a perfect vodka tonic."
Upon hearing vodka, Zheng Ren's head instantly swelled.
Even less and less, this cup of vodka is equivalent to one or two liang of baijiu. Today I'm not planning to do anything, but tomorrow it seems there's still Shou Bing to do.
Just thinking about drinking, just thinking about socializing, Zheng Ren really has a headache...
"Boss, I've already gained some insight into the feel; previously mixing drinks, I couldn't make a cocktail with such distinct layers." Su Yun said with a smiling squint: "Come on, don't just stand there, let's drink a cup together."
"Wait a moment." Chang Yue suddenly said.
"Huh?"
"The liquor just given to Heizi has been finished." Chang Yue adjusted his glasses, then picked up the Moutai bottle and poured Heizi a small half cup.
Heizi's tail wagged with great vigor, looking as if it might break.
"For the Nobel Prize, for victory, cheers!" Su Yun raised her cup and shouted loudly.
Zheng Ren felt a bit awkward; he rarely attends drinking gatherings, or basically never does. At such times he should originally stand up and say some encouraging words, but he couldn't utter a single sentence.
Not only does he himself not speak, but hearing Su Yun speak also makes him feel embarrassed.
Although slightly awkward, seeing Su Yun's face brimming with youthful passion, Zheng Ren recalled his journey; at the toughest times he himself went to each department to pay respects...
A surge of warm blood welled up in his chest, he raised his cup.
"Cheers!"
Two beautiful cocktails and three three-liang three cups, filled with rich aged liquor, clinked together.
Zheng Ren, after all, also has a youthful heart; the crisp clinking sound rang out, his chest surging with passion, he actually downed the cocktail in one gulp.
Various colored liquids entered his throat; although the alcohol concentration wasn't high, he also felt a surge of scorching spiciness, a straight line passing through throat into esophagus and stomach.
Alcohol repeatedly irritating the esophageal wall is always bad; at this moment Zheng Ren's mind holds only this thought.
