234: Naming

Given their understanding of Zhou Shi, it was highly likely that he would not have given Lai Zhiyun this courtesy.

But just as this thought emerged, Zhou Liao also picked up his glass.

"Together. Brother, here's to you."

Zhou Shi raised his glass, tilting it slightly upwards, and clinked it with the glasses of Zhou Liao and Lai Zhiyun.

Luo Baoling: "..."

Luo Baoxiang: "..."

Indeed, it was Zhou Liao's face that was greater.

By association, Zhou Shi was considerably more polite to Lai Zhiyun.

At meals and gatherings, the only ones Zhou Shi was willing to clink glasses with were a few close family members.

With others, he always maintained a distance.

The courtesy of polite small talk was always something others adjusted to for him, not something he forced himself to fit into.

For example, at a lively family dinner, when the atmosphere was right and an elder suggested everyone have a drink, Zhou Shi was definitely the most aloof one.
