"You know I always uses to drink than you, you too can't delay that and forget about that you drink not than me!" His friend said with loud voice.

"Not need for argument! You guys should come and approve yourself!" Another guy said.

Chameleon stood up from where he was sitting and his friend too stood up, tuned the table and two of them sat down opposite to each other.

"Let see who know on to drink!" Another guy said. Opened a new wine, poured it inside two cups without putting ice blocks inside it and put it at the front of two of them. Other customers that were there with their friends or girlfriends were looking at them.

"I will count three and you guys will drink it once. We will pour another one, the counting still remain the same and you too continue drinking it!" The second guy said

"Okay! Let start, I am fully ready!" Chameleon said.

"Three! Two!! One!!" As the man finished counting, two of them took the cups with their two hands and drank it once.

Chameleon felt pungent in his tongue and two of them put the cup down. The first guy poured another wine inside the two cup and two of them waiting for counting.

"I told you! You better stop and accept me as the winner!" Chameleon said and talking to his friend.

"Thee! Two!! One!!" The guy counted as the guy finished pouring another cups, two of them looked at each other and drank everything. Chameleon's friend felt like vomiting as he drank the last one and put the cup down.

"He has wanted to vomit, name me as the winner and let the game end!" Chameleon shouted and laughing.

"Not over yet! I am still standing on my feet, pour another wine!" His friend said and didn't want to accept.

The guy opened another new wine and poured it inside the two cups.

!We are waiting for the winner! Winner!!

People continued shouting and looking at them. Chameleon and his friend took the wine at the same time, Chameleon drank everything before his friend. He just drank a little and his stomach had been disturbing him.

He forced himself to drink it finished and wanted to put the cup down, he vomited out heavily and dirty the floor. He stood up quickly and going to the toilet outside the restaurant and beside it.

"I told you!" Chameleon laughed, and people started hailing him. A guy stood up from where he was sitting and walked closed to their table.

"I challenge you! Let do it and with less pepper noodles!" The guy said and sat down on the chair that Chameleon's friend stood up from.

"Wang Lei! Don't do this because you have take much wine already and this will make you to vomit!" The guy that was pouring wine for them said.

"You come to challenge me right and with less pepper noodles! I will surprise you, bring the noodles!" Chameleon laughed and ordered for the noodles.

"Okay! Let carry on then!" The second guy said. The lady that was managing the restaurant got there with noodles full inside a big bowl and with four sticks put beside it. She packed the empty bottles and left the place.

"The game started again! So let go on!" The guy poured wine inside the cups for Chameleon and the guy.

'Three! Two!! One!!!" People joined the guy to call it and said in chorused.

Chameleon and the guy took the cups at the same time and drank everything and put the cup down. Two of them took the sticks, took noodles from the bowl and eating it.

The guy poured another wine, counted the number and two of them drank it. Chameleon's friend had felt fine and got to the place back, met two of them eating noodles.

As Chameleon ate the noodles finished, he started feeling stomach running and also like to vomit. He looked at the guy, took the wine and drank it again.

As he drank it, the vomiting started coming rushy.

He covered his mouth and running out from the restaurant. A young beautiful lady was walking around the restaurant and looking for place but she didn't get it, checking the name when Chameleon ran out and pushed each other.

"Oh! I am sorry and why are you running out!" The lady said with low voice and standing at the front of Chameleon. She was wearing a very beautiful Chinese gown and had a long beautiful hair.

"I am so------" Chameleon vomited on the lady's shoe and the floor as he wanted to say sorry and continued running to the toilet. The lady looked at him and ran after him.

Two of them entered the toilet at the same time, Chameleon started vomiting on the floor and making some noises. The lady was looking at him as she on the tap and washing the vomiting from her shoes.

"I am good! Thank you" Chameleon said.

"No! I don't agree! Follow me!" The lady held Chameleon's hand and taking him to the market side.

Chameleon was looking at her and looking at where she was taking him too. All of a sudden, Chameleon removed his hand from the Lady's hand.

"Where the hell are you taking me to? Who are you and what the hell is your problem with me?" Chameleon shouted and said with loud voice.

"Calm down! I am just trying to be nice!" She held Chameleon's hand again and continued taking him inside the market. Chameleon had fed up, looking at the unknown lady and she didn't release his hand.

She arranged everywhere in the living room before she started sweeping. Warned the children not to dirty the ground again and started sweeping.

The two children were pouring the dirty from groundnut on the floor at where she had slept and calling her back.

As she was sweeping it that was how they were pouring it and laughing at her. Xiu ying had been getting angry but she can't abused them because of their mother.

"Okay!" Two of them said in chorused, stood up and leaving the living room.

"They left! And said only okay! Wow!!" Xiu ying was so surprised and didn't know what just happened. She was standing and thinking of what just happened.

"Those spoil brat just left like that! It's strange!" She continued sweeping the floor and very fast with it.
