Chapter 37: Having Fun

  You Zhībīng insisted that Ping Yuanchao not send anyone to follow him, and Ping Yuanchao also understood some of his personality. Since coming out of the capital city, he didn't want to be restricted in any way. Moreover, they had already brought their own drivers, now they only lacked a guide. Even if he were to send someone else to follow, it would just be for the sake of having a guide.

  After some thought, Pingyuan Chao stopped insisting and instructed: "Know the soldiers, you must pay attention to safety on the road, drive slowly, and contact me in time if anything happens!"

  "You can rest assured, Uncle Ping! Nothing will happen between me and Xi Yao!"

  Feng Xi Yao smiled sweetly and said beside him: "Uncle Ping, don't worry, we'll be fine, you have things to attend to!"

  Ping Yuan chuckled and said: "You two weird elves, I'm a bit worried about you!"

  You Zhībīng and Féng Xīyáo both burst out laughing, Píng Yuǎn Cháo finished speaking with a smile and left, Zhù Zǐchuán hastily followed him to see him off.

  As soon as they left, Feng Xi Yao smiled and looked at Ye Ping Yu: "Comrade Ye Ping Yu, you seemed to have drunk a lot of wine just now!"

  At this time, Ye Pingyu was really drunk, his eyelids were a bit disobedient, but as soon as he heard Feng Xiuyao speaking to him, he immediately opened his eyes and said: "I'm fine, I can still drink a little more!"

  "Haha! Can you still drink? If you drink more, I think you'll fall over, Second Brother, do you think he can still drink?" Feng Xiyao said with a smile to You Zhibing.

  You Zhībīng looked at Yè Píngyǔ's appearance and also smiled, feeling that Yè Píngyǔ's current appearance was very funny. He chuckled and said to Yè Píngyǔ: "Little Ye, are you okay now? If not, go rest in the room for a while. Tomorrow we still need you to take them to find your grandfather!"

  Ye Pingyu straightened his body and said: "Mr. You, I'm fine, I didn't toast your wine earlier, now let me make up for it with another cup!"

  After finishing, Ye Pingyu swayed his body to go and toast Yu Zhibing's wine. Yu Zhibing smiled and said: "Little Ye, don't drink too much wine anymore, I think you've had a lot to drink. Don't call me Mr. Yu either, that's what Director Zhu calls me. You're younger than me, so just call me Brother Yu. This is my sister, you can directly call her name Feng Xiuyao. Your grandfather helped my father back then, we're like one family, don't be too formal!"

  Dazed and confused, Ye Pingyu stood there not knowing what to say, now that they were one family. The other party was a noble guest from the capital, could he even keep up?

  "Brother Yu, I really want to toast you another glass of wine!" Ye Pingyu thought for a moment and suddenly blurted out this sentence.

  When he heard him say that he wanted to drink with himself so generously, You Zhībīng suddenly stood up and said: "Good! Little Ye, let's have another drink!"

  Feng Xiyao pouted beside them, "Second Brother, are you two really going to drink? Look at his state, if he drinks more, he'll definitely get drunk!"

  "Little sister, you're quite concerned about Comrade Xiao Ye, aren't you? I, your second brother, also had a lot to drink earlier!" Yu Zhi Bing chuckled and glanced at Feng Xi Yao with a sly smile.

  Feng Xi Yao's face turned red, she reached out and pinched him, then coquettishly scolded: "Second brother, what nonsense are you talking about? I'm just saying he really has had too much to drink! You shouldn't drink anymore either!"

  Watching the two siblings talking, Ye Pingyu was confused and couldn't figure out what they were doing. He guessed they were making fun of him. Anyway, he was too far away from them. After they visited their grandfather tomorrow, they might not meet again. What did it have to do with him if they said something about caring for him?

  The two siblings finished speaking and saw that Ye Pingyu was still standing there, very strong. Yu Zhibing was also moved, the wine table is like a battlefield, he used to be a soldier, and he always admired people who never fell on the battlefield!

  You Zhībīng directly walked over, poured half a cup of wine from his own cup, and then only gave Yè Píngyǔ a very small portion. He said: "Little Ye, you've had quite a bit to drink already, just have this much, I need to use this cup of wine to toast your grandfather again on behalf of my father, so let's just have one more cup, how about it?"

  Although somewhat puzzled, he still knew that his cup had less wine and You Zhongbing's cup had more wine, so he immediately said: "Brother You, you've come from afar to see my grandfather, I'll thank you on behalf of my grandfather first. Let's fill our cups to the brim and drink them in one go, how about it?"

  You Zhi Bing listened and thought that Ye Ping Yu was really generous and bold, drinking without any reservations. If he drinks like this, he must be a straightforward person who gets things done, such a person is worth befriending!

  "Alright, Xiao Ye, let's down it in one go!" Yu Zhi Bing also got excited, filled up both of their cups, and then started drinking together with Ye Ping Yu.

  Looking at the two of them drinking there, Feng Xiyao shook her head and sighed. She knew this second brother's temper, if he met a drinking buddy who suited his taste, they would drink without stopping. Earlier when Ping Yuan Chao was here, he was still somewhat restrained, but now that Ping Yuan Chao had left, she estimated that the wine would be drunk endlessly. And before coming over, her father had also reminded her not to let him drink too much.

  Two men clinked their cups together and downed the wine, after which Yu Zhi Bing suddenly became excited and sat down next to Ye Ping Yu, saying: "Little Ye, I think you're a romantic at heart. Why don't we play rock-paper-scissors? Whoever loses has to drink."

  Ye Ping usually didn't play around like this, but he was also excited at the moment, so he said: "Brother You, how do you play? Teach me, and let's have a good drink!"

  You Zhībīng burst out laughing when he heard that Ye Píngyǔ had never played before, and explained the rules to him. Ye Píngyǔ then learned from him and started playing with his fists. At first, he didn't understand and made mistakes, drinking several mouthfuls of wine in a row. However, afterwards, he found his way and made You Zhībīng drink several mouthfuls of wine in a row. You Zhībīng laughed loudly, while Féng Xīyáo frowned as she watched them from the side.

  Zhūzi chuán bǎ píng yuǎn cháo sòng shàng chē yòu ān pái le yī xià ránhòu cái zhuǎn shēn huí lái, jiéguǒ yī huí lái jiù fāxiàn yóu zhī bīng hé yè píng yǔ liǎng rén gēn liǎng huó bǎo sì de zài nà lǐ huà quán hē jiǔ le, zhè ràng tā biǎo qíng yī zōng, dàn hěn kuài xǐng guò shén lái zǒu guò qù xiào dào: "zěnme yàng, nǐmen shuí shū de duō a?"

  You Zhībīng couldn't help but laugh and said: "Director Zhù, are you joining in? Little Ye is truly a genius. He just learned how to play rock-paper-scissors and has already made me drink several cups of wine!"

  Zhu Zi Chuan burst out laughing and said: "It's that intense? In that case, I don't dare to row with you guys!"

  Feng Xi Yao came over and persuaded them: "Alright, you all shouldn't drink anymore, there are still things to do tomorrow!"

  This loud shout woke Ye Pingyu up, what was he doing just now, Cao Dafu was still in that room, and there were things to do tomorrow, but he had forgotten all about it.

  "Yóu Gē, I...I can't drink anymore, let's stop, okay?" Yè Píngyǔ suggested stopping voluntarily.

  "You can't just stop now! You made me drink several cups of wine earlier, but you didn't even take a sip. How can we not continue playing? Don't worry about tomorrow!"

  As soon as Yu Zhi saw Bing Wan's energy rise, Feng Xi Yao said angrily: "Second brother, I'll come and play with you, let's see how much you can drink!"

  After saying that, she pulled Ye Pingyu to one side and wanted to play with You Zhongbing herself. Ye Pingyu had no choice but to dodge to the side. You Zhongbing saw her coming over to play with him and said with a dissatisfied expression: "Little sister, you can't drink, what are you playing?"

  "Hum! I'll drown you with drinks!" Feng Xiyao's eyes snapped open, her gaze blazing with anger as she confronted You Zhibing.

  He saw his sister interrupting his interest, and he was still afraid of this sister. He glared at Feng Xiuyao a few times, but Feng Xiuyao wasn't afraid of him. In the end, he had to admit defeat and said, "Okay, let's not play anymore, go back to your room and rest!"

  Yu Zhi Bing's temper flared up, he stopped drinking and didn't continue to stay for dinner, wanting to return to his room to rest. He then looked at Ye Ping Yu and said: "Xiao Ye, we'll play again when we have the chance, let's get drunk first!"

  Ye Pingyu was already drunk at this time, and he couldn't speak in complete sentences: "Alright, Yu Ge, let's get drunk together!"

  Didn't expect that after just going out for a bit, the two of them would end up in this state. Can only shake head and arrange rooms for both of them. Ye Pingyu also can't drink anymore, might as well go back to the room to rest first.

  Feng Xi Yao didn't want to eat anymore, and wanted to go back to the room to rest together. Zhu Zi Chuan arranged for them to stay in a room at the Tao Ran Hotel, and after making arrangements, he walked into Cao Da Fu's room.

  Just now when Han Yuanqing came to toast, Cao Dafu and Yang Leyi were left in the room, feeling very bored. They didn't know where Ye Pingyu went, nor did they know where Han Yuanqing went. Only the two of them and Driver Old Zhu were left, feeling like Liu Laolao's first visit to the Grand View Garden, not understanding anything, like a wooden puppet. What is all this about!

  After a while, Yang Leyi took the initiative to say to Cao Dafu: "Secretary Cao, this good dish and good wine would be wasted if we don't drink it. Let me toast you with a glass of wine!"

  Cao Dafu didn't have the mood to drink with him, although today's hospitality was indeed good, but today didn't follow his intention to invite guests, and didn't express that kind of sentiment, uncomfortable, not pleasant. And where did Ye Pingyu go? Nobody knows, it's all very mysterious, don't know what they're doing behind the scenes.

  After a while, Han Yuanqing finally came back, looking very good, much happier than before. He then drank with them heartily. Seeing Han Yuanqing so happy, Cao Dafu's mood improved somewhat, and he hastily clinked glasses with Han Yuanqing.

  They had almost finished drinking, and Zhuo Zi Chuan came from outside again. Cao Da Fu hastily stood up, and Zhuo Zi Chuan walked over and sat down for a while, having a few more drinks with him, which was another expression of goodwill. This made Cao Da Fu very happy, as he had been in a rush when he first arrived, but unexpectedly became enthusiastic towards the end. Since that's the case, what else could he be unhappy about? The only thing that still seemed strange to him was why Ye Ping Yu hadn't returned yet.
