Chapter 230: Never Getting Drunk
Ding Ning glared and shouted unhappily, “What did you say? You don’t know whether I can or not? You said I was brilliant last night, but why are you suspecting my ability today?”

Mu Yanran was depressed and blushed, thinking, “You are a rogue! Last night I said your carving skill was brilliant, not your drinking ability.

“You are misleading others by speaking so ambiguously. Others may be thinking I had sex with you, and that you are potent in bed. Alas! It is so shameful.”

But when she saw Wang Xianghua’s darkening face from the corner of her eye, she recovered instantly, thinking, “This is shameful, but this misunderstanding might be a good way to get rid of Wang Xianghua.”

She didn’t think about giving any further explanation, sat back angrily, and thought, “Die then, from drinking! You deserve it!”

Wang Xianghua was delighted. “They are arguing. Nothing can be better than that. When I get Ding Ning drunk, this will be my opportunity, and Mu Yanran will undoubtedly become my tamed prey tonight.”

When Wang Xianghua thought about this, his eyes were filled with fire, and he stared greedily at Mu Yanran. With a smiling face, he said, “Mr. Ding is a hero indeed. Then, I shall try my best to drink with you. No matter how much you drink, it is still my treat.”

“Great, a promise is a promise. President Wang, I have borne your words in my mind. Yanran, and also the beautiful waitress, please be my witnesses.”

Ding Ning happily leered at the waitress, who was there, with their dishes.

The waitress’s face flushed and as she nodded, her heart was beating rapidly. “I never thought this rough-looking man could be so charismatic, and he is so handsome when he smiles.”

Mu Yanran looked serious and kept silent, but Wang Xianghua sneered. To show he could keep his promise and gradually make Ding Ning drunk, he immediately took out a bank card, handed it to the waitress, and said, “Beauty, there is ten million yuan in this card. Please put it at the bar counter. Tonight, all the expenses will be my treat.”

“President Wang, you are frank. Tonight, I must drink as much as I can, and make sure I am sated before we go home.”

Ding Ning stroked the table and laughed heartily.

Next, it was Ding Ning’s “performing time”. He downed a bottle of 1999 La Romanee Conti, as if it was merely water.

One bottle, two bottles, three bottles…

When Ding Ning gulped down the fifth bottle of 1999 La Romanee Conti, his face was flushed, then he picked up his chopsticks to eat.

Stunned, Wang Xianghua let out a long sigh of relief. “I thought this guy would never get drunk, no matter how much he drank. Now, he is almost drunk. One more bottle, and the guy is bound to be completely drunk.”

Mu Yanran stopped her argument with Ding Ning, and looked a little worried. She whispered, “Are you okay? Don’t drink anymore.”

“O—okay, and I…I can still drink. The black pepper, lemongrass fried steak tastes really good.”

Ding Ning’s eyes lost their focus, and he spoke in a slurry tone, but he could still eat the black pepper, lemongrass fried steak. Mu Yanran suspected that he was the avatar of a Taotie. Could he not feel his stomach bulging?

“Manager Mu, please eat more. Mr. Ding can drink as much as he wishes. Don’t worry. He is okay.”

Wang Xianghua smiled, his eyes narrowing into slits. According to his calculation, Ding Ning should be drunk after drinking six bottles of wine. He was a useless, eyesore of a man. Mu Yanran would finally be his prey.

He had made his plans for this, for a long time already. Tonight, no matter what happened, he would take Mu Yanran to his bed. She was already his prey, and he would not let her flee.

When he thought about this, there was already undisguised raw desire in his eyes, when he looked at Mu Yanran.

Seeing the lewd look in his eyes, Mu Yanran became serious and was angry with Ding Ning. “You are not thinking of the consequences; if you are drunk, what would I do?”

When she was worrying about this, she suddenly realized that Ding Ning was holding her hands. He squeezed them a little harder several times, and she became even angrier. It was not the proper time, but he still wanted to harass her.

“Don’t worry. This amount of wine is nothing to me. Your friend is a tough man. I am just pretending to be drunk, to make fun of him.”

Ding Ning’s voice suddenly came into her mind, clear and fluent, without any trace of being drunk. She was stunned and opened her eyes wide.

Wang Xianghua, who was not aware of what was happening, was still trying to persuade Ding Ning to drink more. Mu Yanran suddenly realized that she didn’t understand this friend-like brother at all. He still had so many secrets, awaiting her discovery.

“He has excellent carving skills, drinks like a fish, but will not get drunk, and can speak through his brain, so that others could not hear him at all. My goodness, does he have supernatural powers?”

Her beautiful eyes had an unusual look in them, and she suddenly had a desire to get to know Ding Ning better, and discover all his secrets.

“Open, open the bottle, I want to drink more, continue…continue drinking!”

Ding Ning’s handsome face turned red, his eyes had already lost their focus, and his speech was slurred. He gulped down the sixth bottle of wine, and insisted that Wang Xianghua open another bottle of wine.

In order to make Ding Ning drunk, Wang Xianghua reluctantly acted as a bartender and opened the seventh bottle. Although this amount was beyond his calculation, he thought Ding Ning had clearly reached his limit, because he could not even speak clearly.

But next, the eighth bottle, the ninth bottle…

When the 12th bottle had gone down into his stomach, Ding Ning still looked a little drunk, as if he could fall anytime to the floor, and not wake up., But he did not fall and continued shouting for more wine.

“Have I met a drinking god?” Wang Xianghua was worried and agonized mentally, when he thought about his 2,400,000 yuan being spent in this way. He wanted to break his promise, but he had handed his bank card to the bar counter. He had bragged and it would be shameful to break his promise. He sat there, feeling as if he had pins and needles all over his body, and his face turned darker and darker.

The waitress ignored his face, thinking only about her commission, and when she saw the cute drinking state of Ding Ning, she thought he was more and more adorable.

If Ding Ning said he wanted wine, she would carry boxes of wine to him immediately. The restaurant manager had even noticed this, standing at the box door, peeking in and grinned. Today, the turnover of this dinner, would be as much as the total sales of several months.

As time went by, Ding Ning had already gulped down eight boxes of wine, but he remained the same as before, shouting for more wine.

The waitress became terrified and looked awkwardly at Wang Xianghua, “Sir, your bank card only has 10 million yuan, but the wine expense has already reached 9.6 million. This gentleman can only drink two more bottles with the balance of money. Do you want to continue?”

“What did you say? President Wang is…is a rich man, is …is a tycoon, with hundreds of millions of yuan. 10 million yuan is nothing to him. What you said obviously means you are looking down on him…looking down on president Wang. Is it so…president Wang? Hiccup…president Wang, she is looking down on you, and I am angry for you. No, you are the boss of Tianfu Company, and how can you…can you be looked down on by a small time waitress of this restaurant? This will surely affect your prestigious image, but the restaurant’s concern is also reasonable. If you refused to accept the amount you consumed, although I know you are not a person like that. But, they…they don’t know yet. Take out your card, continue taking out your card, I want to drink more.”

Ding Ning hiccupped and held Wang Xianghua’s shoulders as if they were old friends, and bragged about Wang Xianghua’s wealth and made his face turn red and dark. He reluctantly took out a card with 20 million yuan inside, handed it to the waitress, and gritted his teeth and said, “Take it. I will keep my promise. No matter how much you drink, it is my treat.”

“Haha, I know, President Wang, you are a straightforward man indeed. Wine, more wine.”

Ding Ning smiled happily and patted Wang Xianghua on the shoulder, saying, “My bladder is full, let me go to the washroom to pee, and let’s continue drinking when I am back.”

“You are not going to drink anymore, are you?”

Having spent so much money already, Wang Xianghua didn’t want to see it go to waste. Today, no matter what happened or how high the price it was, he must make Ding Ning drunk.

“How come? Beauty, wine, bring me 10 more boxes now, and bring me more, if need be.”

Ding Ning staggered to the washroom. He could use his True Qi to remove the alcohol, but so much water in his stomach, made him feel uncomfortable.

“I am also going to the washroom.”

Mu Yanran hurriedly went over and supported him like a good wife, walking with him to the washroom. When they were out of Wang Xianghua’s sight, she asked worriedly, “Are you alright?”

“Don’t worry. Only my stomach feels full. Even though I drink 100 more boxes, I wouldn’t get drunk. He wants to date you. No way.”

Ding Ning held her shoulder, whispering and smiling. His eyes were clear, he spoke clearly, and his previous drunkenness had disappeared.

“You, you, president Wang will hate you.”

Mu Yanran was not worried, rolled her eyes at him as she coyly grumbled, and then excitedly asked, “How can you drink so much?”

“Uh! I am a born drinker who never gets drunk, probably because I have more enzymes that is able to dilute alcohol.”

Ding Ning covered it up with an excuse. How could he tell her he was using his True Qi to dilute the alcohol? It was too complicated to explain it.

Mu Yanran seemed to be accept this explanation, nodded, and said admiringly, “I’ve heard that some people will never get drunk no matter how much they drink. I never expected you to be one of them. If I could do that, it would be great.”

“As a lady, drinking less is good for your health, but you also need to be careful who you are drinking with. You must be careful when you drink with those who have evil intentions.”

Ding Ning warned her.

“I know. Don’t nag!”

Mu Yanran was in a good mood and rolled her eyes at him.

Her little girl look stimulated Ding Ning’s sexual desire, and he held her shoulder tighter, but fortunately, Mu Yanran did not realize it.

At the door of the washroom, Ding Ning smiled and said, “Go now. Don’t wet your pants.”

“Go away, rogue!”

Mu Yanran kicked him hard, and, swinging her hips, walked into the ladies’ room.

After Ding Ning peed, he felt physically and mentally better, and he thought it was worthwhile to make Wang Xianghua suffer mentally in this way.

“This bastard loves money and uses all kinds of ways to get promoted, right? Then, I will make you lose money and suffer severely. This is also a good way for Mu Yanran to vent her anger.”

Just as the two of them returned to the room to continue drinking, a large group of dandies walked into the hotel.

The ones in front were Qin Canglan and a handsome young man. The two of them walked shoulder to shoulder, and Qin Canglan smiled and asked, “Yixiao, you haven’t been in Ninghai for several years. Is your father well?”

“My father is well, but my grandpa is not. Brother Qin, you wanted to ask about my sister, right?”

Yixiao, dressed in carefully tailored white shorts and a short jacket, looked exceptionally handsome. He had an extremely eerily and seductive smile, and a feminine air about him. He did not look manly at all.

Qin Canglan had a “hey, hey” smile and said frankly, “I like your sister. That’s not a secret. How is she now?”

“I don’t know.”

Yixiao’s slightly sad reply gave Qin Canglan a shock, “What does that mean?”

“My sister has run away from home for more than two years, already. During those years, I was forced by my father to study our family business, and he does not want me to leave Gusu. This time I came to Ninghai because I want you to help me look for my sister.”

“Run away from home? What was wrong with her? Was she bullied by someone? Why didn’t you tell me last time you called me?”

Qin Canglan’s face turned serious, and he stopped and asked nervously,

When he thought that the lady whom he met and fell in love with at first sight, three years ago, was now alone and wandering about somewhere, he felt his heart contract as if it had been torn into pieces.

“She was weak and alone, somewhere far from home, and she was also so beautiful. She could probably even be bullied by others.” Thinking of this, he found his heart turning cold and he was so worried. He wished he could look for her at once and be at her side, to guard her.
