Some people become duller because of it, while others become smarter. Maybe you're not so smart after you drink."
Li Xiaoyu pondered thoughtfully.
Tang Xiaojiu looked at Tang Suoye and asked,
"So, can you eat more when you drink?"
"No, you can't."
Tang Xiaojiu decided not to drink and continued to eat with gusto. Tang Suoye did the same.
As everyone clinked glasses, Li Xiaoyu asked, "Are you hoping that when I'm drunk, I'll be dumber and easier to bully?"
"You've always been easy to bully. If I wanted to bully you, I wouldn't need to waste this bottle of fine wine that I've saved for hundreds of years."
Li Xiaoyu nodded, feeling that Tang Xian made some sense. But it wasn't that she was easy to bully; it was that she was willing to be bullied by him.
For instance, the remark about 'not growing up', if it had come from Liu Lang, then Liu Buding might be frequenting the adult store in the future.
