Chapter 76

"Let's have two more cold dishes to go with the drinks! And bring us a case of beer!" Zhang Linna said, looking at the menu.

Upon hearing that she wanted to drink, Zhang Dong and Lin Xueyan were both surprised.

"Linna, you want to drink more?" Lin Xueyan couldn't help but ask.

Zhang Linna waved her hand to signal the waitress to go ahead and prepare the dishes. After the waitress left, she then answered Lin Xueyan's question.

"Xueyan, of course we should drink! You invited Zhang Dong for dinner, how can we not show our gratitude with a toast?"

Hearing this, Zhang Dong's expression became a bit odd: "Zhang Linna, who taught you this?"

"Who else? Of course, it's my father-in-law! I often see him toasting like this at the dinner table! And by the way, you can just call me Linna, like Xueyan does." Zhang Linna said nonchalantly.

Zhang Dong and Lin Xueyan exchanged a glance, both seeing the wry smiles in each other's eyes.

Indeed, it's the influence of the environment!

Fortunately, Li Kuishan doesn't like to play finger-guessing games, or else Zhang Linna might have dragged them into a game later.

The restaurant served the dishes quickly, and soon a table full of dishes and a case of beer were brought over.

Zhang Linna poured a glass of beer very generously and raised it to Zhang Dong and Lin Xueyan.

"Dongzi, Xueyan, let's start with three glasses!"

After saying this, she drank it all in one go, leaving Lin Xueyan stunned.

Lin Xueyan hardly ever drinks, even at class reunions, she would only have one glass of beer, and no more.

But Zhang Linna wanted to drink three glasses right away, which was too much for her.

"Linna, you and Zhang Dong drink. I'll have at most one glass," Lin Xueyan said with a wry smile.

Zhang Linna blinked her eyes and asked curiously, "Xueyan, have you ever been drunk before?"

Lin Xueyan shook her head: "No, you know I don't drink much."

"Hehe, then let's try your alcohol tolerance today! Maybe you can drink a thousand cups without falling! Anyway, if you get drunk, Dongzi and I will make sure to get you home safely!"

After saying this, Zhang Linna kept urging Zhang Dong and Lin Xueyan to drink.

With no choice, the two of them raised their glasses.

Zhang Dong drank it all in one go; his alcohol tolerance was quite good.

Lin Xueyan, however, only took a small sip and put down her glass.

Seeing this, Zhang Linna encouraged her: "Xueyan, haven't you been in a bad mood these past two days? Drinking a couple of glasses will make you feel better!"

Persuaded by Zhang Linna, Lin Xueyan had no choice but to finish her glass in one go.

After drinking one glass, her fair face immediately turned red, clearly the type who gets flushed easily from drinking.

"Xueyan, you have a good alcohol tolerance! Eat some dishes! The food here is quite good!" Zhang Linna said with a smile.

After eating a few bites, Zhang Linna still insisted on drinking more, but this time she wasn't as insistent.

Before long, Lin Xueyan stood up with a red face.

"You two keep drinking, I'm going to the restroom."

Lin Xueyan was in good health, but she had a small problem: as soon as she drank beer, she had to go to the bathroom quickly.

Watching her leave the private room, a glint of unhidden joy flashed in Zhang Linna's eyes.

"Dongzi, I'm toasting you this glass, for saving my life last time! I must toast you!"

Saying this, Zhang Linna stood up with her glass and walked to Zhang Dong.

Zhang Dong smiled: "Linna, why are you being so formal? You can toast while sitting!"

Hearing this, Zhang Linna looked as if she had just realized something: "Dongzi, you want me to sit? Alright! I'll sit!"

With that, she sat on Zhang Dong's lap, almost pressing her entire body against him!

Zhang Dong was stunned, clearly not expecting Zhang Linna to sit on his lap.

"Linna, what are you doing?" Zhang Dong quickly said.

Zhang Linna smiled seductively: "You said to sit and toast! Besides, sitting like this... is more comfortable!"

As she spoke, Zhang Linna deliberately moved closer to Zhang Dong.

Because of the alcohol, Zhang Linna's fair face was naturally flushed.

Looking at her up close, Zhang Dong realized that Zhang Linna was actually a very beautiful woman, the kind who gets more attractive the more you look at her.

He couldn't tell what perfume Zhang Linna was wearing, but a faint scent now filled his nostrils.

Perhaps due to the perfume or the alcohol, Zhang Dong's heart began to race, and his breathing became more rapid.

Noticing Zhang Dong's change, a hint of satisfaction flashed in Zhang Linna's eyes.

Finally, he's moved by me!

Thinking this, Zhang Linna, with a seductive expression, raised her glass to Zhang Dong's lips.

"Dongzi, I'm toasting you, aren't you going to drink?"

"Linna, why don't you get up first, and then I'll drink?" Zhang Dong said with a dry laugh.

If it got out that he let the village chief's daughter-in-law sit on his lap to toast, it would be a shocking piece of news for the entire village!

"No way! I like toasting while sitting!"

Zhang Linna said, her cherry lips directly by Zhang Dong's ear, her breath like a gentle breeze.

"Do you not like it, Dongzi?"

As Zhang Linna spoke, a warm breath made Zhang Dong's ear itch.

"No... no!" Zhang Dong tried to control himself.

"Really! I'm glad you like it. I actually have an even more fun way to toast, do you want to try it?" Zhang Linna's voice was full of allure.

Hearing her last words, Zhang Dong almost lost his composure.

This girl is really good at seducing, even better than Yang Cuifei!

Is this a natural talent?

"Linna, get up first, or... I really can't hold back!" Zhang Dong almost gritted his teeth to say this.

Unexpectedly, hearing this, Zhang Linna covered her mouth and laughed.

"I'll get up after you drink my toast."

Saying this, Zhang Linna brought the glass to her own lips.

She took a light sip but didn't swallow it, keeping it in her mouth.

Then, under Zhang Dong's wide-eyed gaze, she hooked her arm around his neck.

Her red lips slowly approached Zhang Dong's.

Just as their lips were about to touch, the sound of high heels came from outside, and Lin Xueyan returned!

Zhang Dong was startled, and Zhang Linna was a bit disappointed, quickly swallowing the wine in her mouth.

"Dongzi, it looks like this toast failed, but I'll definitely seize the opportunity next time!"

By the time Lin Xueyan entered the room, Zhang Linna had already returned to her seat, with only a slight flush on her face, not giving away anything.

Zhang Dong sat up straight.

However, he subtly pulled the tablecloth to cover his thighs.
