283 Drinking Competition
“Do you have a good idea?” Yue Qi asked with great interest.
“We’ll come up with a great way to help you solve this problem!” another boy said.
The two of them smiled at each other and clinked their drinks.
In Fang Xiaonuan’s class, there were usually no boys who would go and provoke her, because they had heard many stories of her hitting people. Even Ji Wen had been beaten up three times, and two had been sent to the hospital. If he wanted to pursue Fang Xiaonuan, he had to be able to beat her. Otherwise, if she was unhappy one day, she would hit him and send him to the hospital. Therefore, if he wanted to woo Fang Xiaonuan, he had to be able to beat her!
Ji Wen had said long ago that they would definitely participate in a drinking contest. They had just done one round and there was no clear winner yet. They were ready to try again.
“It was a draw just now. This time, let’s just drink a bottle of beer. One round costs 100000 yuan. Do you dare?” One of the boys pointed at Ji Wen.
Ji Wen smiled and placed an empty can on the table. He felt that everyone was just a student, so he said, “100000 is too much. It’s just a class reunion. 10000 yuan per round is enough. There’s no need to play for so much.”
When the other men heard this, they thought that Ji Wen was afraid, so they sarcastically said, “Young Master Ji, it’s not that you can’t afford to lose, right? If you don’t have money, you can bet the two beauties beside you so that we can have a chance with them. Hahaha!”
The people around them made fun of Fang Xiaonuan and Liu Siyu, but to Ji Wen, they were insulting his best friends!
Ji Wen, who was still laughing just now, immediately became gloomy. His eyes were filled with anger as he said, “You think I can’t afford to lose? If you really want to play for so much, then let’s bet five million. Whoever falls over first loses. Do you dare?”
He smiled and glanced at the students around him, locking eyes on the boy who had just made fun of his two friends.
The man’s expression froze. “Five million? This much?” He dared to play 100000 yuan per round, but if it was 5 million yuan per round, he would have to pay 5 million yuan for every round he lost. That would be too great of a loss. Ji Wen did not seem to be joking.
“Play! Why not? It’s so exciting!” Yue Qi suddenly walked over and interjected. He even patted the boy who had been provoked by Ji Wen and said, “Zhang Lian, this is such a fun game, you have to do it!”
Zhang Lian’s expression turned sour. “Young Master Yue, I…”
Yue Qi did not give him a chance to speak at all and said, “We don’t get together that often, so we must have fun. How about this, if you lose, I’ll pay the five million for you. How about that?”
“Yo! Young Master Yue is so generous. As expected, Young Master Yue’s family is rich!” Some of the students complimented him.
“Zhang Lian, just go ahead and play. Young Master Yue has already said that he will pay for you. If you win, the money will be yours. Why are you still hesitating?”
Yue Qi patted Zhang Lian’s shoulder. “Don’t worry. The students are watching. If you lose, I’ll definitely help you pay.”
Ji Wen glanced at Yue Qi, who was up to no good, and then turned to look at his two good friends some distance away. He felt a little uneasy. “Alright, since you want to play, play to your heart’s content! Five million per round. Here you go. Serve me some beer!”
Ji Wen took out his bank card and placed it on the table. Yue Qi also took out a card and placed it on the table. The two of them were already competing in secret.
After a while, all the bottles of beer on the table were cleared, and the waiter brought in more bottled beer.
All the drinks were opened by the waiter. The girls not far away saw the scene and exclaimed, “Waa! Ji Wen is going to have a drinking contest with Zhang Lian. Each round is worth five million. Everyone, let’s go and take a look. They’re playing with too much money!”
Fang Xiaonuan and Liu Siyu looked at each other. The two of them stood up at the same time and walked over quickly.
Ji Wen and Zhang Lian were still drinking non-stop. Ji Wen had even taken off his coat and thrown it on the sofa. He was only wearing a coffee-colored shirt, and he had a bottle of beer to his lips.
Zhang Lian did not show any weakness and also drank from the bottle. He glanced at Ji Wen from the corner of his eye, clearly competing with him.
Ji Wen was obviously faster. After he finished one bottle, he quickly picked up another. The onlooking male and female students were clapping and cheering for the two boys.
However, only Fang Xiaonuan and Liu Siyu were upset. Their hearts ached for Ji Wen.
Fang Xiaonuan tugged at a classmate beside her and asked, “If it’s a drinking contest, then it’s a drinking contest. Why do they have to play for five million a round?”
The student said, “Ji Wen set the bet at five million all on his own. Zhang Lian said at the beginning that if Ji Wen couldn’t afford it, he could bet you or Siyu. In the end, he directly said he wanted to play five million.”
