Chapter 298: I’ll Protect You
Sheng Hanjing wasn’t very good at drinking either. His mother had prepared a champagne tower, which was too much. He wasn’t very sober and was propping up his face, trying to hold it up.
As for Sheng You and Kang Weizhen, they were doing much better. After all, they often went out to socialize, so they were still chatting happily at this moment. However, they were still a little over-excited from the alcohol.
What surprised them was that they couldn’t make out Juncheng’s alcohol tolerance at all.
On the other hand, Yangyang was already drunk. She lay on the table, her black hair spread all over the tabletop.
Yi Juncheng couldn’t help but run his fingers through Sheng Yang’s hair in front of Sheng You and Kang Weizhen. She was so cute that he lost control of himself a little.
Sheng You felt his heart skipping a beat, but then he remembered that Yi Juncheng was Yangyang’s teacher. He couldn’t be so blatant about it, so he decided to make him drink.
Kang Weizhen knew her husband’s limits, so she didn’t stop him and only whispered to him, “Go easy on him. Don’t break him.”
She could understand her husband’s feelings. A father would always dislike his future son-in-law. He would feel that his love had been s.n.a.t.c.hed away from him.
But after a few rounds of drinking, Sheng You’s eyes gradually turned hazy and his thoughts gradually turned chaotic.
However, Juncheng remained calm.
Sheng You waved his hand, his voice a little hoa.r.s.e. “I can’t go on.”
He was experienced and had a good family. Whenever he was out for business, he never drank too much and knew his limits.
Unexpectedly, her husband was the one who was almost drunk. Kang Weizhen was surprised at this. Now that her husband had to tap out, she could a.s.sume his position and drink with Juncheng. However, that wouldn’t be too appropriate.
Instead of winning or losing this drinking game, she had a more important question. “Juncheng, why are you so good at drinking?”
Yi Juncheng picked up his gla.s.s and began to talk about his childhood like it was a joke. “When I was young, I had a nanny who treated me very well. I listened to whatever she said. One day, she gave me a lot of wine and I obeyed her every word. When I pa.s.sed out, I heard her telling my grandfather that I got alcohol poisoning because I drank too much when she wasn’t paying attention. I was eventually pulled back from the brink of death, and I also learned that the nanny wasn’t a good person. She was sent by my relatives to kill me. It was because I was a thorn in their side. Without me, all the wealth and status of the Yi family would belong to them.”
He seemed to be talking about someone else’s story as he looked unconcerned. He looked down, played with the gla.s.s, and stared at the champagne inside. His eyes were glittering, and there was a smile on his face.
Kang Weizhen was silent. She didn’t expect Yi Juncheng to reveal so much, which saddened her.
Every family had its own problems, but Juncheng really had a pitiful life…
Even so, she herself had experienced many things. How could she not tell that Juncheng was playing the sympathy card on her?
It was just that sometimes, the truth was hidden in the lies too.
At this time, Sheng Yang suddenly raised her head and held his hand tightly while still seemingly out of it. “I’ll protect you!”
