Those brats didn't restrain themselves, heedless of my gender. On the contrary, they were even more excited and wished they could have toast me with a bigger glass. They claimed to be oppressed most of the time, saying it would be a shame to lose their only opportunity for retribution.
However, they didn't know that wine was like flavored water to me. I wouldn't have any reaction other than going to the restroom a few more times.
It wasn't my concern if they couldn't stand toasting.
Colin sat upright, his eyes filled with mist, smiling as he enjoyed my battle with his students. His students would cheer whenever I drank, while he would smile triumphantly.
On the surface, he looked dignified and elegant without losing his composure. However, I knew that he was drunk.
"Enough. Lulu is a lady. How could she manage to drink so much? I'll take her place."
Felix finally showed up to protect me.
It was a pity that his action was redundant. I didn't need his help at all.
I wasn't bragging. It was not strenuous for me to handle such a scene on my own.
"No need. Get out of the way. Baby can do it." Before I could respond, Colin reached out to push Felix away unpleasantly and impatiently.
He looked disgusted as if Felix wasn't his biological brother but rather a piece of trash.
I laughed blatantly, which made Felix look embarrassed and annoyed. He deserved it.
"Colin, won't you get tired of being jealous? How can she drink such strong wine? How are we going to explain to Aunt Harper and Uncle Gerald if she drinks too much? Can you be more serious?"
Felix attempted to take my wine glass after shaking off Colin's hand, but I evaded him. "Thank you, I can handle it."
Upon saying that, I drank another glass of wine.
