"Boss is obviously formidable." Su Yun said with a look of disdain.
"Well, Boss, you don't know how hard it was for me when I first arrived; it was difficult to see any review committee member. After three or five days without seeing anyone, I thought, with this time, I might as well be happy doing Shou Bing at home."
"And then?" Su Yun had already opened the iron-capped Moutai, a rich wine aroma wafted over, Zheng Ren was slightly tipsy.
"I don't know from which day it started, um... until one day Reviewer Browne suddenly called me, inviting me to his place." Professor Rudolf Wagner said, "Emma ah Boss, you don't know how scared I was then."
"Promising."
"I guess it's because your side's work got through; that bunch of calves usually don't give me a good face, yet they can call me to go to his place? I guess if I don't go, he'll come running over."
"But then I was completely dazed, and I just went to Reviewer Browne's place and drank all night."
Zheng Ren smiled, thinking it should be after Thus term: Thus term: Kelisidian obtained permission from Lao Luoqie, representing the Bruhl Family in appearing.
"Afterwards, Reviewer Browne pretended to be drunk and asked me how I knew His Excellency Ke Li." Professor Rudolf Wagner said, "His Excellency Ke Li is such a big shot; how could I know him? But I don't know him, my Boss does."
"Fugui'er, things got easier later, right?" Zheng Ren asked with a smile.
"Mm." The professor said: "Until the end I heard that Lafusen, chair of the review committee, went to Di Du to give lectures, and I knew it was almost done. But I still hadn't heard anything until last night. Boss, Yun Ge'er, you don't know my heart; it's broken into eight pieces, fallen on the ground, I can't even put them back together."
"It's fine, sober up quickly." Zheng Ren said: "From now on, I expect you'll get a lot of calls."
"Mm, it's not like that." Professor Rudolf Wagner said: "I hadn't even woken up when the phone rang, saying the website had already posted the winners' list; we are the sole winners in biology and medicine."
"I thought I was dreaming; I was just about to go back to sleep when the video came in."
"Drink less." Zheng Ren habitually reminded: "I expect there will be a lot of media lately..."
"Boss, you're so talkative, hurry up and drink." Su Yun bumped Zheng Ren aside with her shoulder, held up her cup, and raised it toward the professor on the video, saying, "Fugui'er, cheers to our Nobel Prize!"
Professor Rudolf Wagner was already happily dazed; he searched around but 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 downed her 3.3-tael 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." Professor Rudolf Wagner said.
"Then come back, let's go to Xiang Shan to see the red leaves." Su Yun said, "Let's have a good drinking session; we won't return until we're drunk."
Zheng Ren truly couldn't understand why celebration must involve drinking, but it seems that since ancient times it's been like this. No matter how he struggles, he probably can't match the four characters "since ancient times".
Just thinking about the countless drinking gatherings lately, Zheng Ren starts 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!" Professor Rudolf Wagner happily replied: "I'll go thank the review committee on this end, then head back."
"Alright then, hang up." Su Yun said, "We'll start drinking; today we definitely have to get the Boss drunk. Normally he doesn't drink, but for such a big event not drinking would be unjustifiable."
"Yun Ge'er, you must get the Boss totally confused!" the professor happily said, "Then take a photo for me; I want to see what the Boss looks like when he's five horses long spear."
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 get the Nobel Prize." Su Yun said, "Come on, let's drink first, then tell me what secrets the Fifth Edition of External Medicine actually has."
"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 asked, holding the cocktail glass, posing an irrelevant question in a rather dull manner.
"Yes, each liquid has a different density; it takes 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 also amounts to one tael of baijiu. I'm not planning to do anything today, but it seems there's still surgery tomorrow.
Just thinking about drinking, just thinking about socializing, Zheng Ren really has a headache...
"Boss, I've gained some insight into the feel; before, when mixing drinks, I couldn't make a cocktail with such distinct layers." Su Yun said with a smile, "Come on, don't just stand there, let's drink a cup together."
"Wait a moment." Chang Yue suddenly said.
"Huh?"
"The liquor I just gave Heizi has already 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 were about to 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 bow...
A surge of hot blood welled up in his chest, and he raised his cup.
"Cheers!"
Two beautiful cocktails and three 3.3-tael cups, filled with rich aged baijiu, clinked together.
Zheng Ren, after all, still has a youthful heart; the crisp clinking sound rang out, his chest surging with passion, and 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, like a line passing through his throat into the esophagus and stomach.
Alcohol repeatedly irritating the esophageal wall is never good; at this moment Zheng Ren's mind held only this thought.
