Ye Jiayao's alcohol tolerance was high and no one could keep up with her as she drank to her heart's content.
After they had finished their meal, Wang Mingde, who was still sober, offered to take her home. Ye Jiayao looked down at the mess of a guy on the floor and waved her hand in dismissal.
She said, "That's alright, I'm not drunk. You'd already have a hard time carrying these drunkards to the house with Old Guan. Oh, and make some sobering soup for them to drink, alright? Shopkeeper Li would go ballistic if no one would be able to work tomorrow."
In truth, Ye Jiayao knew that she had drunk too much. She had only been forcing herself to act as if the alcohol didn't affect her one bit. However, as soon as she left the restaurant, she gave up the pretense and allowed herself to stagger home, occasionally burping loudly.
