Chapter 11 A Game of Whac-A-Mole (1/2)

In the Roman Hall, there was a table for ten; a soft and luxurious carpet was on the floor and the cutlery on every table was very specific. There was also a television in the room and a fridge, filling the place with a homely atmosphere.

The four people sat at the ten-people table, which appeared slightly empty. But Tong Lei enjoyed this feeling tremendously. The etiquette girl came to the room and left after placing the meal card. Following which, there were two waiting staffs who came over—one offered up the menu, and the other poured drinks for everyone—their service was very pleasant.

Being the host, Tong Lei familiarly flipped the menu to the page of the most delectable seafood and pointed with his finger. ”Give me four of this.”

”Wow! Tong Lei, I love eating abalone the most.” Sitting at one side, Xiao Xi said happily, ”Only, it is worth One Thousand and Eight Hundred per piece. Normally I would not let other people have it; you are so generous!”

Tong Lei laughed; the more people praised him, the more self-satisfied he became and following which, his finger moved. ”Come, have another one.”

”Heaven Nine Fins!” Yang Shiwen looked at Tong Lei. ”Let the four of us just have a simple meal; why to order such expensive shark fin?”

”Haha Shiwen, your family is the richest in the East China Sea, how dare I be stingy when I treat you to a meal?” Tong Lei appeared self-satisfied, as if the more someone was shocked and dumbfounded someone was towards him, the more face he had.

”There's nothing much with the rest; just order a set of A-grade seafood feast then.” Tong Lei waved his hand grandly, appearing very domineering.

This time, don't talk about Xiao Xi and Yang Shiwen; even those two service staff were shocked for a while.

”Master Lei, the A-grade seafood buffet is a total of sixteen dishes—you four will not be able to finish all of it!”

”Master Lei, you four ordered the A-grade set, which seems a bit of a waste!”

Being the service staff of the five-star hotel, they naturally liked to promote the expensive dishes to their customers. This way, the service staff would be able to get a high commission. But at the same time, they would also pretend to think about the customers' best interests. The two service staff cajoled Tong Lei one after the other but in reality, they could not be happier.

”No worries!” Tong Lei said, laughing. ”The A-grade seafood is only fifty-eight thousand; as long as we are happy while eating it, it's fine.”

Liu Feng laughed, looking at Tong Lei pretend, and did not say a thing.

This time, Tong Lei looked towards Liu Feng. ”Big Boss, look at this; what beer should we drink?”

Liu Feng said, ”If you eat seafood then don't drink beer. It's easy to cause gout; just serve white wine.”

”Just as I thought.” Tong Lei said, ”Serve two bottles of Maotai.”

”How is two bottles enough?” Liu Feng raised his hand and gave a hand sign of six. ”Come deliver one box!”

Huh!

This time, all the people present, including the two service staffs were shocked. Maotai was a white wine of 52 degrees. One bottle was half a kilogram, and one box had six bottles; that meant three kilograms of high degree white wine! The two men, drinking three kilograms of white wine; was this to drink wine, or to play with someone's lives?

”Why? Men can't drink more white wine?” Liu Feng laughed, saying, ”Tong Lei, didn't you get into the capital's military college? When you get into this prestigious college, you would be the country's soldier. As a man who is a soldier, you can't be too lazy!”

”Who said I was lazy, bring it on!” Tong Lei waved his hand. ”Bring one box here, and let those two beauties have fruit juice.”

The two service women's lips twitched at the same time; since Master Lei had already said this, both of them could only follow on the order.

A few minutes later, all the dishes on the menu were sent.

The four promptly started to eat but Tong Lei had only eaten two mouthfuls of food when he voluntarily opened a bottle of white wine. He first poured out a cup for Liu Feng, and then another for himself.

”Big Boss, today since we are meeting for the first time, even if I truly don't like you, but your energy, and your verve, I am in awe! Come, let me give you a toast.” Tong Lei raised his wine cup and finished drinking the wine with a toss of his head.

Ha!

After toasting, Tong Lei made a broad move.

”Wow! Tong Lei, a cup of two and a half, you hold it in for a while,” Xiao Xi said, chewing his sea cucumber and saying at the same time.

”Heh heh, no worries, drinking the wine like this is quite refreshing.” Tong Lei laughed, and inverted the wine cup that was in his hand, not a single drop remained inside.

Yang Shiwen did not utter a sound but secretly looked at Liu Feng.

Liu Feng smiled and raised his wine cup and tossed his head backwards to finish drinking the wine.

What was different from Tong Lei was that when Liu Feng had finished drinking his cup of wine, he did not even yawn. It was as if he had finished drinking a cup of plain water. His calmness completely trumped Tong Lei.

”Big Boss, good capacity for liquor, haha!” Tong Lei put down his beer cup and returned to his own seat and started eating vegetables to suppress the effects of the liquor.

But this time Liu Feng stood up again and took an initiative to fill up Tong Lei's cup, then pouring wine for himself, saying at the same time, ”Tong Lei, initially, taking you little brother in was not my intention. You have the madness of the Fuerdai and even have the habit of pretension; you are really not worth my keeping. From you, I really cannot find even one positive point, but...”

Puff!

Hearing Liu Feng's words, Xiao Xi, who was listening from the other hand, almost spurted his drink in laughter. Even Yang Shiwen's shoulders were shrugging.

And Tong Lei himself, his skin was originally black and this time, his whole face seemed to change into the colour of the bottom of the pot. D*mn, what did he mean by saying that he could not find a single positive point?

Liu Feng continued to say, ”But eventually, that you are able to admit defeat, I say that you still have some sense in you! If you don't even have such sense, then you won't be fit to enter the military college or become a soldier. For your little sense, let's toast!”

After saying these words, Liu Feng raised his head, and it was another toast.

”Good!”

Tong Lei really felt like he was a man with a lot of guts after hearing Liu Feng's words. Thus, he agreed.

The two men each made a toast and a bottle of Maotai was gone.

Later, Liu Feng reached out to open another bottle and filled two empty bottles up as well.

”Still drinking?”

”Shiwen, this handsome bodyguard can drink, can't he?”

Xiao Xi, who was sitting and watching by the side, looked shocked. This took just a small effort that a bottle of Maotai had already been finished and another bottle had been opened?

Seeing Liu Feng's look, his face not changing expression and not changing his tone, there was definitely no worries. But Tong Lei's blackened face had already turned red and even his breathing had become rough considerably.

Tong Lei was not incapable of consuming alcohol but after drinking two cups, he had finished the 0.25 kilogram of wine and felt that he had eaten a bit too much.

But Liu Feng did not think of letting Tong Lei off so easily. He filled up the two cups of wine and touched the cup, saying, ”This cup is to celebrate Shiwen's recovery of health. Cheers!”

Grumble!
