Chapter 61

"Zhu Tianming, what, what are you planning to do?"

Upon seeing the two people following behind Zhu Tianming, Xiao Rui's expression suddenly changed.

"Oh, this must be your sister-in-law? She is really beautiful."

The two hooligans laughed and acted as if the two people present were invisible.

Zhu Tianming ignored Xiao Rui and directly stared at Chen Yang, "Brother, can you consider giving up now?"

"Is threatening others your way of expressing love?"

Chen Yang's eyes were calm, seemingly not feeling the threat from the two hooligans. Instead, he said, "If you truly love Miss Xiao, you should make her feel happy."

"Happiness?"

Zhu Tianming was taken aback.

"Yes, happiness. Only by leaving Miss Xiao will she feel happy. If you really love her, you should leave her on your own."

Chen Yang was talking nonsense, but in his mind, he was thinking about what dishes to order next.

"This..."

Zhu Tianming hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, "No, I still think my happiness is the most important. I can't let Xiao Rui leave me."

"What a selfish man." Chen Yang was genuinely surprised.

"Each to his own. My life principle is to be a selfish person and let those who gossip go to hell."

Zhu Tianming was extremely pleased with himself.

"Can you two stop embarrassing yourselves?"

Xiao Rui was truly defeated by the conversation between these two men. They didn't feel embarrassed, but she did. If possible, she really wanted to leave to avoid the embarrassment.

"Since you're so straightforward, why don't we make a bet?"

Chen Yang's mind raced, and he slowly said, "If you win, I'll leave unconditionally. If you lose, you leave immediately."

"What kind of bet?"

Zhu Tianming's heart itched at the mention of a bet.

"Do you know how much you can eat and drink?"

Chen Yang shook his teacup, "This bet is simple. We'll see who can eat and drink more. It's straightforward."

"What? A bet on eating and drinking? How can you compete with Brother Ming?"

The two hooligans almost burst out laughing at Chen Yang's so-called bet.

"Hehe, are you sure you want to bet on this?"

Zhu Tianming opened his mouth, showing great disdain.

"Of course, but the loser has to pay for the food and drinks."

"Hmph..."

Zhu Tianming was completely convinced that Chen Yang would lose. He was not just pleased but ecstatic. When it came to eating and drinking, when had he ever been afraid of anyone?

"Fine, no one can back out!"

Zhu Tianming was overjoyed. If the bet was about who had more money, he would have had to give up, but when it came to eating and drinking, he, Zhu Tianming, had never been afraid of anyone.

"I just hope you won't back out." Chen Yang slowly said, his expression showing great confidence.

"Hey, you two, can you stop fooling around? Zhu Tianming, leave quickly, don't embarrass yourself here. If you don't leave, I'll get angry!"

Xiao Rui was very angry at the childish bet between the two men. What did they think she was? A piece of merchandise? Even if they had to bet, they could bet on something else, not on who could eat more... She felt extremely embarrassed, no matter who won.

"Xiao Rui, don't worry, I will definitely win."

Zhu Tianming thought Xiao Rui was worried he might lose, feeling touched. He patted his chest and had the two hooligans go in to order dishes and bring beer.

Soon, the two hooligans each carried a box of beer and placed it in front of Chen Yang and Zhu Tianming.

"Clap, clap..."

Zhu Tianming patted the beer box and looked down at Chen Yang with a condescending gaze, "Brother, what do you think? A box of beer is just the start of the warm-up."

"What?"

Chen Yang's shocked expression instantly made Zhu Tianming full of disdain. Was he scared by just one box of beer?

"Afraid? Scared by just a little bit of beer?"

"No."

Chen Yang still looked shocked, pointing at the beer box, "Is one box of beer just the warm-up? Isn't that a bit too little?"

"What?"

This time, it was Zhu Tianming's turn to be shocked, "Are you just making it up as you go?"

"Brother Ming, the dishes are here."

At this moment, the two hooligans brought in a tray piled high with hot pot dishes.

"Pour, pour everything in."

Regardless of whether Chen Yang was bluffing, Zhu Tianming waved his hand and had his henchmen pour all the dishes into the oil pot.

"Brother, for fairness, all the dishes in this鸳鸯pot, we each get one portion, okay?"

Zhu Tianming, who actually cared about fairness, naturally did not object to this.

Seeing the two men ignore her, Xiao Rui, sitting on the side, looked helpless. She was invited to have dinner, right? How did she suddenly get excluded? What was she supposed to eat?

Regardless of what Xiao Rui thought, Zhu Tianming boldly picked up a bottle of beer, not using a bottle opener, and opened it with a chopstick, "Clap," the cap flew off.

Using a chopstick to instantly pry off the cap required some skill, which most people couldn't do so easily.

Zhu Tianming poured a glass of beer and drank it in one gulp, looking at Chen Yang with great satisfaction.

If there were such fools inviting him to drink and eat every day, how wonderful that would be!

Chen Yang slowly took a bottle of beer from the box, not using a bottle opener, but instead placed his thumb under the cap and flicked it lightly.

"Bang..."

A dull sound, the cap shot into the sky like a cannonball, fast and fierce. Everyone only saw a blur, and the cap was already gone.

"Puff..."

Zhu Tianming sprayed out a mouthful of beer, looking at Chen Yang in disbelief, "You, you, you..."

The two hooligans beside him also saw clearly that this man had flicked off the cap with just his thumb, almost popping their eyes out.

Chinese beer caps are designed to be opened with a bottle opener, not like foreign beer caps. To flick off a Chinese beer cap with just a thumb, and to do it so effortlessly, was truly bewildering to the people present.

"How, how did you do that?"

Zhu Tianming finally managed to speak clearly.

"Hey, you don't know how? Every man who drinks beer should know this simple trick."

Chen Yang calmly poured a glass of beer and drank it, then said, "By the way, you spat out a glass of beer, that doesn't count."

"Fine, I can see you're not an ordinary person, so I won't hold back."

Saying this, Zhu Tianming grabbed a bottle of beer and drank it in one go, then grabbed another bottle and drank it the same way. Repeating this, four bottles of beer were quickly finished.

No wonder the two hooligans said Zhu Tianming couldn't lose. To drink four bottles of beer in one go without changing his expression was no small feat.

Looking at Chen Yang with a challenging gaze, he expected to scare him, but Chen Yang didn't even look up, just started eating and chewing.

"Hey, Brother Ming has already drunk four bottles, aren't you going to drink?"

A blond hooligan reminded him.

"This bet is about who can eat and drink more, not following your pace, right?"

While talking, Chen Yang ate, and in a few blinks, he had finished all the food in his bowl.

Not good! This kid is eating to pad his stomach.

Zhu Tianming wasn't stupid; he knew that eating something before drinking made it less likely to get drunk. Without a word, he quickly grabbed a bowl and chopsticks and started picking food from the pot.

One person was eating frantically, sweating profusely, while the other was eating slowly and methodically. Surprisingly, even though Chen Yang's movements looked slow, the food in his pot was decreasing the fastest.

No matter how frantically Zhu Tianming ate and drank, Chen Yang had already finished eight dishes and five bottles of beer without him noticing.

This made Zhu Tianming break out in a cold sweat when he casually looked up.

Fortunately, he found some comfort in the fact that although he wasn't eating as fast as the other, he had already drunk seven bottles of beer.
