My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 880

Chapter 880 The Burning Alcohol

Nan Xing, on the other hand, was distressed deep down. He usually drank red wine, and Nan Chen was strict about being intoxicated during working hours.

Therefore, even when Nan Xing hung out with his friends on weekends, he dared not get drunk for fear that he might suffer from a hangover when the company needed him for urgent matters.

He would be in trouble again if Nan Chen found out that he couldn't carry out his tasks properly due to inebriation.

Moreover, he was the young master of the Nan family, which was influential in Flower City. He wouldn't allow himself to get stoned outside, as it would bring about serious safety risks.

One wouldn't even be able to control one's own behavior once drunk, much less ensure one's own safety.

Therefore, Nan Xing's alcohol tolerance was actually quite low. Although he was often out having fun with his friends and female companions and was capable of drinking with girls for recreation, he wouldn't be able to keep up with men who had a high alcohol tolerance.

Moreover, he proposed drinking Erguotou, which was the strongest of all hard liquor. There was no way he could handle it.

At that moment, he could only hope that Lu Tiance would refuse outright. However, after a moment of hesitation, Lu Tiance asked Nan Xing again, “Do you like Erguotou?”

Nan Xing nodded. “Yes, I like it very much.”

Lying with a straight face, Nan Xing felt so bitter inside that he almost wanted to give himself two slaps on the face.

“You're our guest, so I'll drink some with you. I happen to be on vacation from tomorrow onward, so it won't be a problem,” said Lu Tiance.

I can't believe he actually agreed!

Nan Xing could tell that Lu Tiance's impression of him had improved after he claimed he enjoyed drinking Erguotou.

People tended to be drawn to those who shared their interests and hobbies, hence the idiom “birds of the same feather flock together.”

“So, how many bottles do you guys want?” Lu Jingyuan was also excited. I can't believe Tiance actually agreed to drink with Nan Xing! Things are looking good!

Lu Tiance looked at Nan Xing and asked, “How much can you handle?”

Nan Xing couldn't possibly back down in front of his “brother-in-law,” so he replied, “How about one bottle each? We'll order more if it's not enough.”

“All right,” Lu Tiance agreed.

Nan Xing began comforting himself inwardly. Though I'm not good at drinking hard liquor, a tiny bottle of it should be fine. Even if we end up ordering more, I'm sure I won't get too drunk and lose control of myself. At most, I'd become talkative, that's all.

Lu Jingyuan called the waiter over. “Two bottles of Erguotou, please.”

“Big ones or small ones?” asked the waiter.

“Big ones,” replied Lu Jingyuan. She knew her brother well and was aware that he and his friends would always drink big bottles of Erguotou.

Lu Tiance had no objections to his sister's decision. He and his friends never drank small bottles of alcohol.

Nan Xing, on the other hand, was dumbfounded.

In his knowledge, drinking hard liquor straight out of a bottle meant small bottles, and never big ones.

A big bottle of Erguotou for each person? Is this some kind of joke?

He failed to hide his distress, and Lu Tiance noticed the troubled look on his face. “Is there a problem? Is one bottle too little? We can add more if you want,” Lu Tiance said.

Nan Xing quickly shook his head. “No. I have no issues with that.”

Lu Tiance nodded and didn't say anything.

It was clear that he, like Nan Chen, didn't like to talk.

However, he was still more talkative than Nan Chen, and he would probably talk more and be easier to communicate with once he was drunk.

When the alcohol was served, the waiter opened the bottles for them and was about to pour it into the decanter, but Lu Tiance gestured for him not to.

“Bring two wine glasses that are not too small,” Lu Tiance instructed.

The waiter then brought two wine glasses that could hold about one hundred milliliters each.
