Nelson estimated that Leo would collapse after another half round.
Nick couldn’t help but laugh. Nelson was truly impressive, effortlessly handling Leo.
In response, Nick picked up his wine glass again and approached, not allowing Leo’s rhythm to pause, “Mr. Bloomer, at home, you rely on your parents; outside, you rely on friends. We are friends now. Let’s have another round!”
Soon, all thirty-six bottles of red wine were emptied.
Tina anxiously called out to Leo, “Leo, you can’t drink anymore.”
“Drink, keep drinking.” Leo swayed, his gaze unfocused, appearing on the verge of intoxication.
“Yes, drink. We won’t leave until we’re all drunk.” Nick unbuttoned his collar and this time, directly ordered a box of Maotai.
The battle resumed.
Soon, Nelson and the others were somewhat surprised. Despite Leo’s apparent drunkenness, swaying and staggering, he never fell down.
While Tina kept advising, Leo ignored her, continuously clinking glasses with the others.
After six bottles of Maotai, all of them collapsed onto their chairs, panting heavily, and no one dared to offer Leo another toast.
With no more toasts, Leo smiled, picked up a bottle of Vodka, poured himself a glass, and then refilled Nick and the others.
“Since you’ve all toasted me and treated me as a friend, I want to toast each of you!” Leo said with a cheerful smile, and then went on to toast one after another.
Nelson and Nick initially wore disdainful expressions.
They thought Leo was probably already drunk; otherwise, why would he turn around and toast them?
However, their expressions quickly changed because, despite Leo’s swaying, he steadily toasted them in turn.
Leo toasted three glasses in total.
Soon, all six girls lay sprawled on the table, completely intoxicated and motionless.
Vanessa slumped directly onto the floor.
Leo raised his glass again.
Nelson’s right hand was trembling now.
With another glass of Vodka down, Nelson’s face turned crimson, and his speech became slurred.
Unexpectedly, Leo didn’t stop; he poured another glass, continuing to toast everyone, urging them to drink together.
Three glasses in a row, and Nick and the others collapsed on the ground, snoring loudly.
Tina was completely stunned.
“Nelson, a thousand glasses are still too few when it comes to true friends.” Leo looked at Nelson with a smile, “Come on, one more drink.”
Nelson’s right hand was shaking badly, his eyes filled with despair. What the hell, was this guy a real wine barrel?
After downing a glass, Nelson felt his whole body burning. He felt dizzy and unsteady on his feet.
Leo, still composed, opened another bottle of wine, filled both glasses, and smiled warmly, “Come on, Nelson, one more drink!”
“Bang!” Nelson collapsed directly, unconscious or scared, no one could tell.
Almost simultaneously, Leo tossed away his wine glass, removed three silver needles from his body, and instantly regained his composure.
Deep, controlling eyes expressed a sense of dominance.
Leo sneered, picked up a bottle of wine, walked up to Nelson, pinched his nose, and poured the wine into his mouth.
Nelson was completely unconscious.
Tina looked on in shock. Leo had single-handedly incapacitated so many people; it was truly terrifying.
“Leo, you’re amazing. Bringing you to the party was the right choice!” Tina’s worried expression had vanished, replaced by excitement.
“Your goal is achieved; let’s go.” Leo smiled and stood up from his seat.
“Sure, I’ll use the restroom real quick; wait for me.”
When Tina went to the restroom, Leo lifted Nelson and Nick, then retrieved a bottle of liquid from Nelson’s pocket. Leo knew exactly what this liquid was for. Without hesitation, he poured it into Nelson and Nick’s mouths. Under the influence of the potion, they would quickly sober up from their drunken state, and then something inappropriate might happen here.
Three days flew by in the blink of an eye, reaching the day of Tina’s departure. Leo personally drove Tina to the airport. To Leo’s surprise, as they bid farewell, Tina unexpectedly called him “brother-in-law.” If Leo remembered correctly, throughout the four years of becoming a member of the Henley family, Tina had always addressed him by his name, never calling him “brother-in-law.”
After leaving the airport, Leo drove to the Seven Stars Sword Sect. He planned to consult Jennifer for detailed information about the Lynd family and make necessary preparations. The matter concerning the Lynd family was like a time bomb, ready to explode at any moment. For safety reasons, Leo decided to handle it personally.
…
Langstel International Airport, in the waiting hall.
Leo leaned back in his seat, eyes squinted, casually observing the men and women around. Soon, Leo’s eyes widened because he saw a pair of slender legs.
In Leo’s gaze, the owner of the elegant legs stopped in front of him. Leo’s eyes moved upward, first seeing a tight denim top that was well-filled, then a snow-white neck with white earphones.
Finally, a lovely face with sunglasses.
“Leo!?” The sunglass beauty took off her sunglasses, her voice carrying a hint of surprise.
“Madame Godwin!?” Leo’s face also revealed astonishment.
Indeed, the person in front of Leo was the beautiful policewoman, Madame Godwin.
“How come you’re here?” Madame Godwin asked.
“Doing some business in Jingbei. What about you?” Leo smiled and asked in return.
“In a few days, it’s my grandpa’s eightieth birthday. I’m going back to celebrate for him.” Madame Godwin explained, taking off her earphones and sitting next to Leo.
“Are you really just here for business?” Madame Godwin knew Leo quite well.
“Of course.” Leo nodded and smiled. “Madame Godwin, you seem to care a lot about me?”
“Quit being conceited; who cares about you!” Madame Godwin rolled her eyes at Leo and put on one earphone.
“What are you listening to? Let me hear.” Leo unceremoniously plugged the other earphone into his ear.
Now, Madame Godwin’s face looked somewhat unnatural. She mumbled to herself, “Seems like only couples share a pair of earphones.” In fact, the people passing by perceived them as a couple. Many gazed at Leo with expressions ranging from admiration to envy, thinking that anyone with such a beautiful girlfriend must be either wealthy or a rich second generation.
Madame Godwin sneakily glanced at Leo, thinking that he must be secretly pleased. After all, he was now sitting with a beautiful policewoman, and they even shared a pair of earphones.
However, Madame Godwin then noticed that Leo’s attention didn’t seem to be on her. This guy was listening to her favorite music while scrolling through his friends’ updates on his phone!
