Lucia once bought several sets of designer clothes for Luofeng, including formal wear, but Luofeng never felt comfortable wearing them. He felt he wasn't that kind of person and didn't need to pretend to be something he wasn't, so for tonight's party, he just picked a casual outfit that he thought was decent. He didn't expect to be looked down upon by Tracy. His thoughts were simple, and he still thought Tracy was warm and hospitable, but Aaron saw everything and had his own conclusions.

Sure enough, this Tracy still looked down on her roommate. Hmph, what a snobbish woman!

Tracy, however, didn't know that Aaron was a tomboy. She only thought he was very handsome and naturally became extra friendly. If it weren't for their second meeting, she would have wanted to stick to him right away. This made Aaron very disgusted, but he couldn't push her away in such a setting. After sitting down, he found an excuse to sit next to Luofeng, not giving Tracy a chance to fawn over him. However, Tracy thought she was just shy and found her even more adorable, constantly sending her flirtatious glances. But Aaron turned her face away and continued talking to Luofeng, pretending not to notice.

The ballroom was quite crowded. Besides Luofeng, Qiqi, and Aaron, Tracy had invited many of her good friends from Victoria City and classmates from Saint De College, most of whom had a certain status. The three of them were the most down-to-earth. However, as soon as they sat down, they attracted several gazes, which came from several male students from Saint De College, including both martial arts and magic students, all dressed in designer clothes and somewhat famous in Saint De College.

They were all Qiqi's admirers. Although they had been rejected, they hadn't given up on the magic department's first-year beauty and were hoping to get closer during Tracy's birthday party tonight.

However, as soon as Qiqi entered, she acted as if she didn't recognize them. In fact, the little beauty didn't remember who they were. Her heart was entirely on Luofeng, and she never left his side, leaving these admirers with no chance.

Wearing a white knee-length skirt, Qiqi looked like an angel, beautiful despite her background as a servant. She seemed to have a natural elegance as a mage. Although Tracy was the star of the party, Qiqi was the most outstanding female in the ballroom.

Seeing the magic department's beauty chatting and laughing with Luofeng, the male students from Saint De College felt both jealous and indignant.

Damn, Qiqi's boyfriend, Luofeng from Starlight College, is just a bumpkin. How could Qiqi like him so much? It's like a beautiful flower stuck in cow dung! I come from a prestigious family in Victoria City and attend Saint De College. I'm far superior to him!

Soon, a boy in a tuxedo walked over with a smile. "Hehe, friend, are you Luofeng?"

"Yes, you..." Luofeng was a bit puzzled because he didn't recognize him.

The boy introduced himself, "I'm Jerry from the martial arts department at Saint De College. Nice to meet you."

Luofeng didn't know why he suddenly came over to greet him, but since the other party was so polite, he couldn't be rude. "Nice to meet you too. Oh, right, this is my roommate, Aaron."

The boy's target wasn't Aaron. He glanced at him, not recognizing him, and just made a few casual remarks.

However, Aaron recognized him.

This Jerry came from a prominent family in Victoria City, had a good background, and some talent, but he wasn't very focused on martial arts. In his third year at Saint De College, he was only an average student because he was obsessed with drinking and women, a playboy who spent his days chasing girls, and his family couldn't control him.

It seemed he had targeted Qiqi as his prey but hadn't succeeded.

Despite his ulterior motives, Jerry didn't show it on his face. "Come on, Luofeng, let's play some card games and have a few drinks."

"Uh, this..." Luofeng originally just wanted to sit down and didn't plan to interact with strangers, so he was a bit hesitant.

At this moment, Tracy also urged, "Go on, Luofeng. It's my birthday, and I want the atmosphere to be lively. Sitting here doing nothing isn't good, Aaron, you should go with Luofeng."

Since the hostess had spoken, Luofeng couldn't refuse. He said to the little beauty beside him, "Qiqi, you sit down first. I'll be back soon."

"Okay, Brother Feng."

Neither of them thought much about it, but Aaron was more cautious.

That Jerry clearly wasn't a good person. Inviting Luofeng to play a card game so enthusiastically must have had ulterior motives.

I'll see what tricks you have up your sleeve!

Besides Luofeng, Aaron, and Jerry, several other male students from Saint De College also joined the card game.

As a popular game in the Radiant Federation, there are many ways to play cards. When Jerry quickly suggested one way, the other Saint De College students immediately agreed, and the smart Aaron understood what was going on.

In this way of playing, the outcome isn't just based on individual skill. If two or more players collude, they can easily take down one player.

And the target was clearly Luofeng.

Sure enough, from the start, Luofeng kept losing. The male students from Saint De College had clearly reached a consensus to target Luofeng, but they did it secretly, making it seem like Luofeng's losses were just coincidences. They only symbolically drank a few cups.

In no time, Luofeng had drunk several bottles of wine.

Jerry laughed, "Hehe, Luofeng, your luck doesn't seem to be very good today. But don't worry, keep playing. No one is always unlucky, right?"

Luck?

Aaron sneered inwardly. What a nice way to put it! If you weren't cheating, would Luofeng lose so much?

These guys clearly wanted to get Luofeng drunk, make him embarrass himself in front of everyone, and ruin his image in Qiqi's eyes.

But, my friend, you've clearly miscalculated!

Aaron himself had once planned to make Luofeng embarrass himself at a drinking table, but it failed, and he paid a heavy price, even losing his first kiss.

Luofeng's drinking capacity was even better than his own, let alone these guys.

Aaron found the underhanded tactics of colluding to cheat despicable. Although he had once wanted to make Luofeng embarrass himself, he would have done it fairly, without colluding with anyone.

Hehe, Jerry, you're right. Luofeng won't be unlucky forever. His good luck is here now!

Next, Jerry and the others started to lose in turn, losing in a way that left them puzzled.

Aaron was secretly helping Luofeng manipulate the game, but her card skills were so high that Jerry and the others couldn't see through it. They only thought their cooperation wasn't good enough.

But Aaron didn't let them lose continuously, or they might have noticed and found an excuse to end the game.

Overall, Luofeng still lost more, but Jerry and the others had to drink a few cups from time to time.

These guys were used to such settings, and Luofeng, coming from a small city, couldn't possibly match their drinking capacity, especially since he was drinking more. So, they continued to play and get Luofeng drunk.

However, they didn't expect that after using the method of the "Wine God" from the Ten Supreme Beings, Luofeng could drink like water.

After playing for who knows how many rounds, one of the Saint De College students, after drinking another cup, suddenly changed his expression, jumped up from the table, and stumbled toward the bathroom. But before he reached the center of the ballroom, he couldn't hold it anymore and vomited, spewing all over the floor. The people dancing nearby screamed and quickly moved away, their eyes full of disgust.

"Ah!"

Tracy screamed. She didn't want this kind of mess at her high-end party and quickly called the waiters to clean up as fast as possible.

The male students from Saint De College exchanged glances, all secretly relieved that the one who embarrassed himself wasn't them. Otherwise, they would have lost face.

But if they continued drinking, they couldn't guarantee it wouldn't happen again. Even if they didn't vomit in public, collapsing in public would also be very embarrassing, so they all found excuses to leave.

Jerry's expression was also uncertain. He didn't expect Luofeng's drinking capacity to be so good. Even he felt a bit dizzy, but Luofeng seemed completely fine. After thinking for a moment, he gave up.
