Chapter 598

After Sun Xuefei drank the wine, her face was flushed, and she looked at Su Xinghui with affection, which made Su Xinghui feel somewhat uncomfortable all over.

Sun Sinian said to Sun Xuelan, "Xuelan, you toast Big Brother Su too."

Sun Xuelan didn't drink alcohol; she poured herself a glass of beverage and said, "Big Brother Su, I toast you!"

Su Xinghui nodded slightly and drank another glass of wine. Sun Xuelan drank the beverage, and although it wasn't alcohol, her face also turned flushed, and she secretly glanced at Su Xinghui.

Seeing the performance of his two daughters, Sun Sinian also nodded secretly. This was a scene he was happy to see. To be honest, he really had the idea of recruiting Su Xinghui as a son-in-law. As for which daughter to marry him to, that would depend on who Su Xinghui liked.

Sun Sinian was very confident in his two daughters. Both were very pretty and had many pursuers, but he had always strictly controlled them, not letting them accept pursuers casually. He treated these two daughters as rare goods to be hoarded, hoping to let them marry young talents in officialdom. And now, was there any young talent more suitable than Su Xinghui?

If Su Xinghui became his son-in-law, wouldn't Su Xinghui's background become his own? How far would he be from soaring to great heights then?

Thinking of the wonderful outcome, Sun Sinian's eyes shone. He toasted Su Xinghui frequently. Su Xinghui, taking things as they came, drank with him whenever Sun Sinian wanted. Before long, the bottle of Moutai hit the bottom.

Sun Sinian wanted to open the second bottle, but Su Xinghui hurriedly said, "Director Sun, let's just leave it at that for today. Let's just eat. If I drink any more, I'll be over my limit."

Sun Sinian laughed, "Township Head Su, I specifically inquired about this. You have a massive capacity; you've never gotten drunk in Meng Hu Ling."

Zhang Ping felt sorry for the bottle of Moutai. She said to Sun Sinian, "Old Sun, forget it. Township Head Su doesn't want to drink anymore, don't force him. If Township Head Su gets drunk later, it won't be good."

Sun Sinian glared and said, "I told you to stop talking, why do you have so much to say?"

Zhang Ping didn't dare to speak again, and Sun Sinian opened the second bottle of Moutai.

By the time the second bottle was almost finished, Sun Sinian was already seven or eight parts drunk. He said to Su Xinghui, "Come, Township Head Su, let's two brothers have another drink."

Su Xinghui said, "Director Sun, you're drunk. Why don't you go rest?"

Sun Sinian raised his glass and said, "I'm not drunk. Come, drink!"

After drinking this glass, Sun Sinian could no longer hold on. He rushed to the bathroom and vomited with a "wa" sound. It didn't matter that he vomited, but it was a pity for all the Moutai he had drunk.

Zhang Ping ran to the bathroom, patted Sun Sinian's back, and complained, "Why did you drink so much? What a waste."

Sun Sinian said, "You don't know anything. As long as we get on good terms with Township Head Su, our whole family will benefit for a lifetime."

Su Xinghui suddenly felt a sense of boredom. He stood up and said to Sun Sinian's children, "I'm leaving first. Tell Director Sun later, thank him for me!"

Sun Xuefei said, "Township Head Su, sit for a while longer."

Su Xinghui said, "Forget it. Hearing Director Sun vomit, I feel a bit uncomfortable too. I'd better go back early, lest I make a fool of myself."

Hearing Su Xinghui say this, Sun Xuefei couldn't keep him anymore. She said, "Then I'll see you out."

Su Xinghui said, "That's not necessary. My home is close. You go take care of Director Sun."

After saying this, Su Xinghui waved at them and left the Sun residence.

Downstairs, Su Xinghui felt a cold wind blowing in his face, which refreshed his spirit. He let out a long breath. At the Sun residence, he really felt some oppression, as if his breathing was somewhat obstructed.

Not long after walking, he suddenly saw a familiar figure. It was Xue Qin, and there was another person beside her. The two were walking side by side toward him.

Su Xinghui subconsciously wanted to avoid them, but Xue Qin had clearly seen him. Her pace slowed, and she hesitated before calling out, "Su Xinghui."

Su Xinghui could only pretend he had just seen Xue Qin. He said with a smile, "Oh, Xue Qin, where are you coming from?"

Xue Qin said, "We're coming back from eating outside."

Su Xinghui smiled and said, "Who is this? Aren't you going to introduce me?"

Xue Qin turned her head to look at the man beside her. After hesitating for a few seconds, she said, "This is my boyfriend, Chen Ping'an."

Su Xinghui extended his right hand to Chen Ping'an and smiled, "Hello, Chen Ping'an. I'm Xue Qin's classmate, Su Xinghui."

Chen Ping'an was an honest and simple man. He was an electrician at the County Power Bureau, of medium height, with a sturdy build and a simple, honest smile always on his face. Seeing Su Xinghui extend his hand, he hurriedly reached out and grasped Su Xinghui's hand, saying, "Hello, Su Xinghui."

Seeing the two shake hands, Xue Qin's face wore an unnatural smile.

After the handshake, Su Xinghui said, "Xue Qin, Chen Ping'an, I'm heading back. Let's get together next time if there's a chance."

Xue Qin nodded. Chen Ping'an wasn't a man of many words either, and he just nodded with a smile.

After saying this, Su Xinghui waved at them with a smile and walked away quickly.

Walking out of the County Committee compound and standing on the street, Su Xinghui felt a sense of loss. He suddenly didn't know where to go. He had that illusion again of not knowing which space-time he was in.

Perhaps it was a sequela of rebirth; he occasionally had such moments of daze, not knowing if he was in his twenties or forties.

Standing in place for a while, a cold wind blew, which woke him up. He suddenly had a strong impulse. He found a public phone and dialed a number.

The phone rang a few times before it was picked up. A familiar voice on the other end said, "Hello, who are you looking for?"

Su Xinghui said, "Is that Xiaoya? It's Su Xinghui!"

Lu Xiaoya's voice suddenly became cheerful: "Xinghui, where are you? Is there something you need to find my dad for? He's not home today. Today is New Year's Day, and the Provincial Committee has activities."

Su Xinghui said, "I'm not looking for Uncle Lu today."
