Chapter 467 Don’t remember
Chapter 467 Don’t remember
Silk and Bamboo Hall.
Lin Chuan and Li Yue sat side by side at a long table filled with delicacies, while Jiang Wanying, Bai Zhi and Ye Xiaoxiao sat opposite them.
Inside the hall, the sound of stringed instruments lingered endlessly, melodiously lingering. The dancers, dressed in the unique costumes of the demon race, stepped lightly and moved gracefully, showcasing their graceful demeanor.
"I offer a toast to you all, as you have come from afar."
Jun Moxie had a gentle expression. He stood up from the main seat, picked up the wine glass, and glanced at everyone seated there one by one.
"Senior Jun, you're too polite."
Lin Chuan smiled, raised his glass, tilted his head back and drank it all in one gulp, looking calm.
Seeing this, the women also raised their glasses and took a sip.
"Haha, Prince Lin has a good alcohol tolerance."
Seeing Lin Chuan finish his drink in one gulp, Jun Moxie immediately followed suit, then put down his glass and said loudly, "I don't have any rules here. Just eat, drink, and have fun. Do whatever you want."
There was a bold look in his eyes, and he raised his hand slightly to signal everyone to feel free.
"Thank you, Senior Jun." Lin Chuan nodded slightly.
"Hey, I already said there are no rules, why are you still being so polite?"
Jun Moxie shook his head slightly, with a helpless smile on his face.
But soon, he seemed to have thought of something and suddenly changed the subject, "Although I have seen Prince Lin's drinking capacity last time, you should not drink too much tonight. If you want to drink, I will make sure to let Prince Lin enjoy it next time."
"Of course, Senior Jun, don't worry." Lin Chuan looked serious and nodded slightly.
"Ah."
Jun Moxie nodded, then quickly walked to Li Yue's side, a sincere smile on his face, and said softly, "Daoyou Li, you have come from afar and are willing to help me find a solution. I offer you a toast."
As he spoke, he raised his glass and looked at Li Yue with eyes full of gratitude.
"When did I ever say I was willing to help Fellow Daoist Jun find a solution?"
Li Yue raised an eyebrow, her expression full of confusion.
"Didn't Fellow Daoist Li..."
Jun Moxie's mouth twitched, and a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.
"Really? I don't seem to remember."
Li Yue asked back in a calm and nonchalant tone.
"..."
Jun Moyue opened his mouth but was speechless for a moment, so he could only look at Lin Chuan with a helpless and pleading look.
"This is for Sister Li."
Lin Chuan calmly handed the storage bag that Jun Moyue had given him earlier to Li Yue.
"Why are you giving it to me? I don't need it, just keep it for yourself."
Li Yue frowned slightly and gently pushed the storage bag back.
"This is what Senior Jun gave to Sister Li. He said that anyone close to me will get a copy."
"It's just that Sister Li and he are of the same generation. This gift is given to the younger generation in the name of giving it to them. It's not appropriate to give it to you in person." Lin Chuan explained softly.
"Really?"
Li Yue narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, with suspicion surging in them.
"of course."
Lin Chuan looked determined and nodded solemnly, meeting Li Yue's suspicious gaze with frank eyes.
"What about the gift he gave you? Take it out and show it to me."
Li Yue stared at Lin Chuan with a probing look in her eyes.
"Here it is."
As Lin Chuan spoke, he took out a storage bag. This storage bag was forced upon him by Jiang Wanying when he was surrounded by her and the others.
"..."
Seeing Lin Chuan take out another identical storage bag, Li Yue was slightly startled, but soon she shook her head and said softly, "This should be given to you by Wanying and the others, right?"
"This was really given to me by Senior Jun. Everyone around me has one. If Sister Li doesn't want it, then forget it. I'll just return it after the dinner."
As Lin Chuan spoke, he prepared to take back the storage bag he had handed over.
"Wait...wait, who said I don't want it anymore."
Li Yue grabbed Lin Chuan's hand, with a hint of anxiety in her eyes.
"Then Sister Li, after you accept it, you will always be by my side."
Lin Chuan raised the corner of his mouth slightly and teased in a way that sounded both joking and serious.
"..."
Li Yue's ears flushed, and she bit her lower lip. She grabbed the storage bag with one hand, glanced at it quickly, and then handed it back with a look of disgust on her face. She snorted, "He actually has the nerve to put such a small thing in a storage bag."
"Sister Li, this is..."
Lin Chuan was slightly stunned, his face full of confusion.
"I've already accepted it, but I'm giving it to you now. Keep it for yourself. If you don't have enough, just ask me for more. Don't be shy. And I don't like what you said just now..."
Li Yue looked at Lin Chuan with burning eyes and said seriously, "Even if I don't accept it, I will always be by your side."
"..."
Lin Chuan was slightly startled, then the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, "Sister Li has actually learned to say sweet nothings. It would be nice if I could hear them every day in the future."
"It's a beautiful thought."
Li Yue gave Lin Chuan a reproachful look, then turned to look at Jun Mo Xie.
After Jun Moxie, Jiang Wanying and the others toasted each other, they returned to their main seats, but his gaze kept turning towards them from time to time.
"I offer a toast to you, fellow Daoist Jun."
Li Yue raised her wine glass, a faint smile on her lips, and said in a soft and gentle voice, "I just forgot what you were referring to. I hope you will forgive me."
"..."
Jun Moxie looked at Lin Chuan with admiration, opened his mouth, but could not say anything.
Inside the hall, the sound of stringed instruments was incessant. Lin Chuan and Li Yue were talking in very low voices, and no one knew what they said.
He had just toasted Jiang Wanying and Bai Zhi with a glass of wine, but when he returned to his seat, he found that Li Yue's attitude towards him had completely changed.
"Friend Jun, are you angry about what happened just now? How about this, I will drink a glass as punishment."
Li Yue finished her words, raised her wrist slightly, tilted her head back and drank it all in one gulp.
"Oh, I'm old now, and I'm always distracted. I made Fellow Daoist Li laugh at me. I'll drink three cups as punishment."
Jun Moxie suddenly came back to his senses, his tone full of apology. After that, he picked up the wine glass and drank three cups in a row.
"No, no, it's my memory that's bad. I always forget things. I'll drink three cups as punishment."
Li Yue smiled widely, and without waiting for a response from others, she picked up the wine glass, tilted her head back and drank the wine in the glass, three glasses in a row, her movements smooth and natural. Then she gently put the glass down, with a smile still on her lips.
"Sister Li..."
Lin Chuan frowned slightly, his eyes filled with worry, and he subconsciously reached out to grab Li Yue's sleeve.
"Don't worry."
Li Yue raised the corners of her lips and winked at Lin Chuan playfully.
"I've long heard that Fellow Daoist Li is not only the best in the continent in alchemy, but also once boasted about wanting to get drunk. Seeing him today, I can see his reputation is truly well-deserved. Why don't we take this opportunity to have a duel?"
Jun Moxie raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Li Yue with interest.
"That's exactly what I meant." Li Yue nodded slightly.
"Come here, bring two jars of Bugui wine."
Jun Moye gave the order in a deep voice. In an instant, Xue Ji sauntered in, clutching two muddy wine jars.
The rich aroma of wine filled the hall, and after a while Ye Xiaoxiao's cheeks flushed.
Jun Moxie and Li Yue, however, looked calm as they picked up their large bowls and drank from them.
"..."
Lin Chuan frowned slightly, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
"Don't worry, what Senior Jun said before is true. Sister Liyue can drink a lot."
Seeing Lin Chuan's face full of worry, Jiang Wanying comforted him softly.
"Then why haven't I heard that Sister Li has this sign?"
Lin Chuan looked at Li Yue who was still drinking, his eyes full of confusion.
"That happened a long time ago. I only heard Master mention it. It seems that Master was the one who smashed the sign."
Jiang Wanying shook her head and spoke slowly.
"???"
"So Master's alcohol tolerance is better than Sister Li's?"
Lin Chuan's face was full of disbelief and he couldn't help but ask.
"Xu Hanyi has a... horrible alcohol tolerance. She's just a coward. She came to me and said she wanted to challenge me, but after two bottles of sake, she went crazy. Not only did she cut off my sign with a sword, but she also beat me up in public. How can I have the face to hang this sign in the future!"
Li Yue's cheeks flushed slightly, and she shook the half-jar of Bugui wine in her hand and spoke loudly.
Jun Moyue had been lying on the table motionless since some time ago.
