My Sleeping Beauty Husband novel (Cynthia and Alston) novel Chapter 218

Chapter 218 Drinking

Lorenz followed his father, holding the wine.

When he went to Jadney City before, Alston had already married Cynthia. Although he didn’t like this man, because – Cynthia was pregnant not long after, he never found a chance to embarrass Alston.

Now that his father was leading the way, he would follow.

“Alston, you finally came to Coast City. Let’s drink today.

As Lorenz said, he filled the empty glass in front of Alston with wine.

Alston was helpless. Their intentions were too obvious.

Before he came, he learned how he should behave. He knew that men who didn’t smoke or drink were very popular with elders.

Alston thought for a second, wondering if he should pretend to be incapable of drinking.

Just as he was thinking about it, Cynthia looked at Lorenz and her uncle. “Alston’s back was hurt just now, and he shouldn’t drink.”

“Cynthia, a good man must drink. Whether it’s a business negotiation or a variety of banquets, he won’t be taken advantage of if he drinks.”

Grandpa also joined in the fun. “Yes, drink. If your grandma was not here, I would like to try. The wine here is brewed by the chef, and it tastes good.”

Seeing his greedy face, grandma said, “The doctor told you not to drink.”

When the grandfather heard this, his face was full of disappointment.

Alston felt envy in his heart. In the Smith family, this picture would never appear. Everyone had their own thoughts and wanted to plot against others.

“It’s okay, Cynthia. I’m not hurt. I can drink.” Alston said as he picked up the wine glass, and drank the whole glass in one gulp.

This wine was indeed very dense and mellow, with a hint of sweetness. After drinking it, he didn’t feel anything for moment, but within a few seconds, there was a spiciness rushing straight to his throat.

Alston’s face didn’t change at all.

Cynthia’s uncle showed a smile and drank the wine in his hand.

“It’s my turn.” After Cynthia’s uncle finished drinking, Lorenz drank it.

The two drank with Alston one after another. Cynthia looked at them with a worried look on her face. Although she knew that Alston could drink, how could he hold two people?

In the end, Cynthia was overly worried. Both her uncle and Lorenz blushed, and they couldn’t speak very clearly, but Alston’s expression remained normal.

Cynthia’s uncle and Lorenz were defeated. Alston could drink too well. After drinking for so long, he didn’t even feel drunk.

Lorenz’s face was blushed all over, his eyes were moist, and he sat next to Cynthia. “Cynthia, although a man needs to drink, a man who is too good at drinking must be an alcoholic and unreliable.”

Alston, who was sitting on the other side of Cynthia, was speechless. Was it okay to say bad things about him in front of him?

When Cynthia looked towards Alston, Alston lost his calm look in an instant, his face flushed, and his eyes showed a hint of confusion and ignorance.

“Alston doesn’t usually drink much, and he is also drunk.”

As Lorenz followed her gaze and saw Alston’s face full of drunkenness, he gritted his teeth. Alston pretended to be drunk and wanted Cynthia to sympathize.

He leaned closer to Cynthia’s ear again and whispered. “He is drunk with a few drinks. Alston is too weak.”

Alston, who was pretending to be drunk, felt helpless.

He didn’t know if he should be drunk or not. Lorenz was too difficult to deal with.

When they returned to the Green family, it was getting late. Grandpa and grandma went to sleep. Uncle and Lorenz were drunk and were helped back to the room by Cynthia’s aunt. After the two babies were settled, Cynthia dragged Alston back to the room.

As soon as she entered the room, Cynthia saw that the drunkenness in Alston’s eyes had completely dissipated. She snorted. “I knew you were not drunk.”
