"Everything he said was true. He genuinely agreed with everything Su Wan said. Because he himself was also pressured today."
Lin Zhou: You're absolutely right, I have nothing to say. This isn't just empty talk, you've won.
Su Wan finished the wine in her glass.
She placed the cup on the table, and the bottom of the cup made a dull thud as it hit the surface.
Then her gaze swept over the bottles on the table, one by one empty bottles lying haphazardly next to the iron plate.
She stretched out her finger and pointed at the empty bottles one by one.
His lips moved as he counted. When he reached the fifth number, his fingers stopped in mid-air.
"waiter!"
She called into the shop, "Bring the drinks!"
Old Ma peeked out from behind the oven. Another oil stain had appeared on his apron, right on his chest.
He looked at Su Wan, then at Lin Zhou.
Lin Zhouchong made a gesture—he stretched his hand horizontally across his neck.
Old Ma nodded and was about to retreat.
"What?" Su Wan turned her head.
Her face was flushed, and several strands of her short hair slipped out from behind her ears and fell across her cheeks.
She looked at Lin Zhou, raising an eyebrow.
"You're not up to it?"
Lin Zhou lowered his hand from in front of his neck.
"This is only a few bottles."
Su Wan pointed to the five empty bottles on the table.
She drew a circle above the empty bottle with her finger.
"You're already done after only five bottles?"
Lin Zhou looked down at the five empty bottles on the table.
There were beer stains around each bottle, in concentric circles, which turned a light yellow color after drying.
He remembered it clearly—the first bottle was drunk by Su Wan herself, and it was already half empty when he arrived.
Su Wan drank most of the second bottle, and he drank the rest.
He opened all five bottles. He twisted the caps on every single one, and Su Wan only poured half a glass into each one, the rest going into his stomach.
There were five empty bottles on the table, and Su Wan had drunk less than two of them in total.
He drank more than four bottles.
But when Su Wan pointed to the five empty bottles and said, "You're already done after only drinking five bottles," Her tone was exactly the same as when she said, "I've never been drunk before, don't worry."
Confident and self-assured.
Lin Zhou was doing the math in his head.
Five minus one minus half equals three and a half bottles.
No, she drank at most two out of the five bottles.
The rest are all mine.
The comments section is also calculating.
"The Three-Second King is Settling Accounts" He was counting empty bottles.
He must have been thinking: I drank four out of those five bottles.
Su Wan: You're already done after only five bottles. Lin Zhou: You drank two, and I drank four. Su Wan: Only five bottles. Lin Zhou:..."
"The lock-picking king's expression... he's holding back."
His mouth is fighting with his heart again.
Mouth: Fine. Heart: All four bottles are mine, what right do you have to say that? Mouth: Fine.
Lin Zhou pushed the empty cup in front of him aside.
"Alright," he said.
"Bring the wine."
Old Ma placed six bottles of beer on the table, water droplets condensing on the bottles and dripping down the labels.
He glanced at Lin Zhou, then at Su Wan, hesitated, and turned to leave.
Lin Zhou didn't rush to pour the wine this time.
He placed a bottle of beer in front of him, unscrewed the cap, and let the foam rise to the bottle opening. He then took a sip.
The movements are very slow.
Then he put the bottle on the table, leaned back in his chair, and looked at Su Wan.
I'm not drinking anymore.
Just now, he drank three and a half of the four bottles, and Su Wan drank half a bottle.
If he keeps drinking at that speed, and then has six more bottles, he'll have to drink five.
No.
He decided to drink it slowly.
Take a sip, rest for half a day, and wait for Su Wan to drink.
Anyway, whoever passes out first after drinking is the only one who knows.
Su Wan poured herself a glass.
He tilted his head back and drank half a cup in one gulp.
He put down his glass and noticed that the wine bottle in front of Lin Zhou was still full.
His cup was only half full; it hadn't been refilled since the first cup was poured.
"you."
Su Wan pointed her finger at the wine bottle in front of Lin Zhou.
The label on the bottle was facing her, and it was still full; not even a suds had spilled from the neck.
"Are you raising fish?"
Lin Zhou's hand rested on his knee.
He looked at Su Wan, a hint of suspicion in his mind.
Was she drunk or not? Just now she pointed to five empty bottles and said, "You're already drunk after only five bottles," and he drank four of those five bottles.
She poured half a cup into her own glass, drank half of it, poured half of it into her own glass, and drank the other half. She kept the fish for half an hour. Did he say anything?
He's only had his bottle open for three minutes and has taken two sips.
She then started talking about how he raises fish.
The viewers in the live chat loved to watch the drama unfold.
"Raising fish?"
Officer Su: Are you raising fish? Lin Zhou: You've been raising them for half an hour, what did I say? Officer Su: Are you raising fish? Lin Zhou:..."
"The lock-picking king's expression was a whirlwind of emotions within him."
"But he didn't say anything."
"Because he knows he can't win an argument."
"A drunkard's logic is invincible."
Lin Zhou picked up the wine bottle.
"Okay, okay. I'll drink it."
He poured a full glass, and the foam overflowed from the rim, trickling down the side of the glass onto the table.
He picked up the cup and drank it all in one gulp, then turned the empty cup upside down and placed it face down on the table.
The cup was turned upside down, not a drop left.
Su Wan looked at the upside-down cup and was satisfied.
She picked up her own glass and took a sip.
This time it wasn't half a cup, it was a big gulp.
Then she put down her cup and didn't urge Lin Zhou any further.
Lin Zhou silently prayed.
The wine is of better quality.
begging.
Last time at Crescent Moon Plaza, the proprietress asked him if his legs were nice; that was someone testing him.
This time it's different. This time, Su Wan drank too much, and it's a test for her.
He has seen drunk people cry, laugh, curse, fight, and take off their clothes.
He didn't know which type Su Wan was.
He just wanted her to finish drinking and fall asleep on the table. He put her in a taxi, dropped her off at the police station dormitory, and then went home.
Su Wan drank another glass.
He drank quietly, showing no signs of losing control.
Lin Zhou breathed a sigh of relief.
He poured himself half a glass and sipped it slowly. The viewers in the live chat relaxed as well.
"Officer Su seems alright even when he's drunk."
"It's quite quiet."
"This is much better than when you were slamming your fist on the table earlier."
"The lock-picking king breathed a sigh of relief; his shoulders relaxed."
"Three-Second King: Good drinking manners are all that matters. Good drinking manners are all that matters."
Thirty minutes later.
Four more empty bottles appeared on the table.
Su Wan held the fifth bottle and drank half of it.
She suddenly put the wine bottle on the table.
The bottom of the bottle hit the table with more force than before, and the skewers in the metal tray jumped.
My mom said— She spoke.
The voice was more than half a tone higher than before, with the ending note rising and then falling back down halfway through.
"I'm immature, I'm inconsiderate, I don't think about my family, I'm 24 and I still haven't found a partner, so no one will want me in the future. What do you mean no one will want me? I've caught so many human traffickers, I've sent other people's children home, am I not good enough? Am I not good enough—" The last sentence was shouted out.
The sound exploded in the barbecue restaurant.
The woman peeling garlic at the next table suddenly looked up, clutching a half-peeled clove of garlic in her hand.
Lin Zhou reached out to take the wine bottle in front of her.
"Officer Su—" Su Wan pushed his arm away with her hand.
