746 This Is Ridiculous
Father Shi was just being polite. He did not expect Xie Yunzhou to really sit down.
This was ridiculous.
But he had already sat down.
Moreover, he was sitting beside Shi Xi.
“What are you doing here?” Shi Xi asked softly.
“Happy New Year.” Xie Yunzhou didn’t even blink. “I’m apologizing to you as well.”
“Come, come, let’s have a drink together.” Father Shi liked to be lively and continued to drink with his children.
Xie Yunzhou had a wine glass in front of him, so he naturally drank it as well.
Shi Xu and Shi Chen took turns pouring wine for Xie Yunzhou, and he drank quite a bit.
Even Shi Shuo knew that Xie Yunzhou did not come with good intentions, so he drank two more cups.
In the end, Shi Shuo was the first to fall.
Father Shi did not drink much and asked Xie Yunzhou a question like an elder, “Why didn’t you go back to Yanjing for the New Year?”
“I still have work to do here.”
“It’s good to be young. Come, come, let’s touch again.”
Shi Xi could not stand it anymore.
“This is the last bottle. You’re not allowed to drink anymore.”
“The adults are drinking. The children are playing on the side.”
Shi Xi saw that Mother Shi had a look of disgust on her face that said, “You deserve it if you drink to death” and decided not to say anything.
Do whatever you want!
The few of them could hold their liquor well. In the end, Shi Chen said that he felt dizzy and ran away before leaving.
Mother Shi went to cook them some hangover soup.
Looking at Xie Yunzhou who was sitting on the sofa, Shi Xi asked, “Are you alright?”
Xie Yunzhou, who had been forced to drink a lot: “…”
From the looks of it, it was not good.
Shi Xi called Xie Yunzhou’s assistant and asked him to pick him up.
The assistant on the other end of the phone was troubled. “Miss Shi, I’m back in my hometown for the New Year. I’m not in Feng City.”
“Happy New Year. I’ll find someone else.”
After hanging up, Shi Xi thought about it.
It was not good to trouble others.
“Then let him stay here. It’s not like there’s no room.” Mother Shi had more or less heard of Xie Yunzhou’s deeds and asked Shi Xi softly, “He didn’t tell you in advance that he was here to give you a gift?”
“I didn’t know he was coming. Let him stay,” Shi Xi said helplessly.
Mother Shi passed the hangover soup to Shi Xi. “Let him drink it and let him sleep. He won’t have a headache or stomach ache tomorrow morning.”
Shi Xi thought to herself that he deserved a headache and a stomachache for drinking so much.
However, she still fed it to Xie Yunzhou.
“Send it to your brother and the others while you’re at it.”
Shi Xi: “…”
Ning Yu took the initiative to clean up after dinner.
“Leave it there. Let your brothers clean it up tomorrow morning,” said Mother Shi, stopping Ning Yu.
Ning Yu looked up.
“Bring your little brother a bowl of hangover soup.” Mother Shi was holding a bowl of hangover soup and was about to feed Father. Shi a bowl.
The group of people drank in a mess.
Father Shi was fine. He didn’t drink much and wasn’t drunk. After drinking the hangover soup, he started chatting with Mother Shi.
“What does Xie Yunzhou mean by coming here today?” Father Shi was confused. “I don’t think he’s talking about marrying Xi Xi.”
“Just to pay a New Year’s visit?” Mother Shi guessed.
Father Shi disagreed and drank the hangover soup. “Who would pay a New Year’s visit at this time? He must have come here for some reason.”
“Then why didn’t you ask earlier?” Mother Shi glared at him.
“How do you ask? He insisted that it was a New Year’s greeting. What else can I say?” Father Shi lay down. “Sleep, sleep. We’ll talk about it tomorrow.”

On the other side, Shi Xi went to deliver the hangover soup to Shi Xu.
Shi Xu drank quite a bit, but he was still sober. He pressed his hand against Shi Xi’s shoulder. “Xie Yunzhou is a bad person. You can’t get along with him.”
Shi Xi was speechless. Sober my ass!
He was already drunk!
Fortunately, Shi Xu was still conscious even though he was drunk. He obediently drank the hangover soup and fell asleep.
