For the next week, Du YouWei was really called by Zhang ShaoYan to go to tuition every day, even on QiXi Festival [1]. But from Zhang Shaoyan’s standpoint, he might not even know what QiXi Festival is?

[1] 七夕/ Qī xī – Chinese Valentine’s day

….. Du YouWei thinks it is very possible.

In the afternoon Zhang ShaoYan came to pick her up in person. Du YouWei got into the car with her schoolbag on her back, and said with a smile, “Good afternoon.”

Zhang ShaoYan let Gao Ye drive the car out. On the way, he took out an exquisite gift box and handed it to Du YouWei: “For you.”

Du YouWei was stunned, and then took the gift: “Thank you.”

Zhang ShaoYan gave her two bracelets before, and Du YouWei thought that this time it will be also a bracelet. After opening it, she found that he changed a new pattern: “Necklace?”

“Yeah.”

Zhang ShaoYan nodded slightly, Du YouWei smiled and put the necklace around her neck, and said to him, “Does it look good?”

“Um.” After Zhang ShaoYan finished, he still looking at her, Du YouWei blinked hesitantly, and said to him: “I like it very much, thank you!”

“Um.”

Du YouWei: “…” No, why did he keep staring at her??

Du YouWei stared at him uncomfortably. Zhang ShaoYan waited for a while, and finally frowned slightly and asked her, “Do you have anything to give me?”

“…” Du YouWei said, “What?”

Zhang ShaoYan frowned again: “Think by yourself.”

Du YouWei sat next to him, looked at him, and saw him look upset, so she called him: “Zhang ShaoYan?”

Zhang ShaoYan ignored her, Du YouWei poke his arm, then said: “What day is it today?”

“Think by yourself.”

Du YouWei was amused by his appearance and laughed “Puff”: “So you know QiXi Festival?”

Zhang ShaoYan finally turned around and looked at her with a little surprise and ridicule: “So in your eyes, I am someone who doesn’t even know QiXi Festival?”

“After all, you didn’t know 520 before.”

“Those two are not the same at all.”

“Alright, okay, don’t be angry.” Du YouWei also took out a beautifully packaged box from her bag, “Here. For you.”

Zhang ShaoYan glanced down, and without opening the box, he guessed what was inside: “Tie?”

“Yes!” Du YouWei chose this tie specially for his new suit—well, his new suit is the white suit Du YouWei helped him customize before his birthday. The master that made the suit was a well-known person in City A. After half a year, Du YouWei had added a lot of money to fasten up the process but she still had to wait for another month. The master even became very temperamental and said that if she urged him again, he wouldn’t do it. Du YouWei had to be quiet as a chicken obediently.

Zhang ShaoYan accepted the tie she gave, and asked her playfully, “You gave me a tie, did you want to put it around my neck, and then pull it to kiss me again?”

Du YouWei: “…”

He acted like this; then how can she look at the tie from now on???

“or do you have any new ways to play?”

“…” Du YouWei looked at him incredulously, “I didn’t expect you to know a lot about my second personality. But I gave you a tie to wear it normally. ”

Zhang ShaoYan gave a sullen laugh and said, “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome.” Du YouWei looked at his smile, and her mood rose.

But this mood did not last long, after she started to write the math papers, she fell back to the ground with a thud. She doesn’t know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that the papers Zhang ShaoYan gave her seemed to be getting harder and harder!

After diligently writing the test paper for the whole afternoon, Zhang ShaoYan finally read it for the sake of today’s holiday and told her to dismiss the class in advance: “The paper will be changed next time. I have settled my work. Let’s go eat first.”

“Okay!” Du YouWei was already hungry and wished to go to dinner earlier. As soon as she packed her things enthusiastically, Gao Ye knocked on the door and said to Zhang ShaoYan with a little embarrassed expression: “Boss, Hall just called and said that there is something wrong with the foreign company, and his flight with James will be changed to tomorrow. Since its will be early in the morning tomorrow, they want to advance the dinner with you to tonight.”

Zhang ShaoYan frowned almost invisibly, as if thinking about something. Du YouWei stood on the spot carrying her schoolbag, looked at him and said, “Or shall we go to dinner tomorrow?”

Anyway, she will also come to tuition tomorrow. 

Zhang ShaoYan didn’t answer, he seemed to be dissatisfied with this proposal. After a while, he said to Du YouWei: “You go to dinner with us.”

“Ah?” Du YouWei was a little surprised, “You want to talk about your business, right? Will it be okay if I follow along?”

“There is nothing wrong with it. It is just eating anyway. When we arrived there, you just eat.”

“…Oh, then all right.” Zhang ShaoYan want to take her with him to the business dinner?

“Then I’ll let the driver prepare the car.” Gao Ye went out to arrange, and Zhang ShaoYan walked out from behind the desk and put on his suit jacket: “Let’s go.”

“Okay.”

Since Du YouWei will meet Zhang ShaoYan’s people, as not to embarrass Zhang ShaoYan, she specially put on makeup on in the car. Gao Ye leaned slightly, and said to Zhang ShaoYan in the back row: “Boss, do you want to eat something? James and Hall may ask you to drink wine again later.”

Du YouWei cleaned up her lipstick a little bit and curiously asked Gao Ye: “Assistant Gao, who is this James and Hall? Are they your customers?”

Gao Ye took a look at Zhang ShaoYan, and then said to Du YouWei: “James and Hall are the boss’s foreign business partners, they particularly like Chinese culture. Every time they come to China; they will find the boss… to exchange work.”

Gao Ye swallowed the words “eat, drink and play” and said: “They like Chinese food, especially wine. Every time they eat, they must ask the boss to accompany them to drink.”

But Zhang ShaoYan didn’t like to drink, and his alcohol tolerance was not very good, so how could he be able to beat the two of them by himself!

“James and Hall have a good tolerance.” In the end, Gao Ye just said so bitterly.

“Oh…” Du YouWei nodded, seemingly enlightened, “Then these two seems to be a bad person.”

Gao Ye nodded in agreement. The two of them probably wanted to give them another shot before leaving.

When the three of them arrived in the restaurant, James and Hall had already arrived. No dishes were served in the private room, but a bottle of liquor was opened.

“Zhang, you are here, we have been waiting for you for a long time.” Seeing Zhang ShaoYan coming in, the two foreign friends greeted him enthusiastically. Du YouWei followed Zhang ShaoYan and looked at the two foreigners in suits curiously.

“Sit down.” Zhang ShaoYan still has that iceberg face, and the enthusiastic foreigners can’t melt him. James and Hall stood there and did not move. They were already stunned by Du YouWei who was following Zhang ShaoYan!

Knowing Zhang ShaoYan for so long, this is the first time they have seen him with a woman by his side. And with such a lovely Chinese girl!

“Oh, Zhang, shouldn’t you introduce this beautiful Chinese girl to us first?” Both James and Hall looked at him eagerly and expectantly; both of them liked Chinese culture, and what they liked most about Chinese culture was actually not Chinese food, but Chinese girls.

Zhang ShaoYan introduced: “My woman.”

James: “…”

Hall: “…”

Ok.

Du YouWei was led by Zhang ShaoYan and sat down beside him. Gao Ye sat on the other side of her. James and Hall could only sit on the opposite side and look at her in the distance.

“Since everyone is here, let’s serve the food.” On the way here, Zhang ShaoYan had asked Gao Ye to order the food in advance, and the kitchen should be almost ready by now.

James got up and poured him a glass of wine, and handed it to him: “There’s no hurry, when Chinese people meet, shouldn’t they drink three glasses first?”

Zhang ShaoYan said blankly, “But you are not Chinese.”

James: “… ”

He felt that Zhang’s remark were destroying the friendship between the Chinese and foreign people!

Gao Ye stepped forward at the right time to round things up: “The boss has just finished the meeting, let me drink this glass for him.”

Seeing Gao Ye drank the wine, James and Hall let him go: “Then let’s serve the food, we don’t want to starve this beautiful Chinese girl.”

Du YouWei, the beautiful Chinese girl, smiled embarrassedly.

The dishes Gao Ye ordered today are all authentic Chinese dishes since that is TianXiaJu’s specialty.

James and Hall naturally ate happily, but they like more to persuade Gao Ye to drink more. They are even better than the Chinese. Seeing that Gao Ye was about to fail, Du YouWei took the glass of wine for Zhang ShaoYan when they once again passed the glass to Zhang ShaoYan: “Two little brothers, I will drink this glass.”

Zhang ShaoYan raised his eyes and looked at her. “Don’t make trouble.”

Du YouWei blinked at him and said to James and Hall: “Seeing you guys drinking so happily, I’m also a bit greedy, so I’ll drink this cup first!” She finished, looked up and drank the wine.

Zhang ShaoYan frowned suddenly and snatched the wine glass from her hand: “This is white wine, you drank it in one gulp?” Du YouWei coughed, patted his shoulder and said: “It’s okay, don’t worry.”

Zhang ShaoYan’s eyebrows wrinkled tightly. He frowned and looked at her carefully, as if watching her for any discomfort. However, Du YouWei is still sober, and said to James and Hall: “More?”

“Great, I can’t believe you Chinese girls are such good drinkers!” James and Hall applauded her one by one and filled the glasses again.

Du YouWei wanted to get the wine glass, however Zhang ShaoYan took it, Du YouWei tugged twice and still couldn’t move his hand. She simply picked up Zhang Shaoyan’s hand and drank the glass with his hand.

Zhang ShaoYan: “…”

“Good!” James and Hall cheered again.

Seeing Du YouWei drank with them, Gao Ye was so scared that he immediately sobers up even though he drank half of the wine.

James and Hall drank happily, saying that since Du YouWei was a girl, if she had a drink, they would drink two. Du YouWei agreed, Du YouWei agreed in one breath, and received another warning look from Zhang ShaoYan: “Enough.”

“I’m really fine.” She approached Zhang ShaoYan and quietly said to him, “To tell you the truth, I’m a good drinker!”

In the next ten minutes, Du YouWei proved with her actual actions that she was indeed drinking well.

James and Hall, who used to get Gao Ye drunk to the ground, are already lying on the table and snoring.

Gao Ye: “…”

Miss Du is a champion, it doesn’t even show on her face.

Du YouWei watched them got knocked up, picked up the chopsticks and said to Gao Ye and Zhang ShaoYan: “Now we can eat the food with peace of mind.”

Gao Ye: “…”

Zhang Shaoyan’s face was very bad, he touched Du YouWei’s forehead and asked: “Who allowed you to drink so much alcohol? Is it uncomfortable?”

“No, I telling you, my grandmother, has a good alcohol tolerance. When she was young, no man could beat her.” Du YouWei proudly told Zhang ShaoYan about her family, “My mother and my aunt are also better than the men. Don’t look at their noble looks, if they are really going to the wine table. It’s the deadly Yama!”

Gao Ye: “…” It’s over, is Miss Du already drunk?

Zhang ShaoYan didn’t speak and stayed with a stern face, and Du YouWei continued to proudly say: “But my mother usually doesn’t allow me to drink, for fear that I will go out to scare others. The drinking gene in our family is inherited to females and not males, so my brother can’t do it. Oh, I will tell you a secret. Every time my brother goes to dinner, he will go with my cousin. My brother is responsible for fooling people, and my cousin is responsible for drinking everyone down. The combination of the two of them, no one can beat them.”

Gao Ye: “…” He seems to have indeed heard of this.

Zhang ShaoYan helped her sit down and looked at her reproachfully: “You dare to drink so much wine next time?”

Du YouWei said unconvinced: “I really wasn’t drunk. I just get excited more easily after drinking wine.”

“Oh?” Zhang ShaoYan looked at her, she was not excited, she is drunk, “how excited are you?”

“For example…” Du YouWei stood up suddenly, leaned in close to Zhang ShaoYan, patted her right hand on the table beside him with a “boom”, and lowered her head close to him, “This way.”

Her breath was on Zhang Shaoyan’s face. Still carrying alcohol, as if the person who smelled it would also go drunk.

Gao Ye looked in their direction, tugging at the corners of his mouth.

This is… table kabedon??
