Chapter 034 Have I Disappointed You
Li Zhilong laughed loudly: “Good, good, good, Brother Su, you really match my temperament! It’s rare to meet someone so straightforward! Come, let’s all drink together! Bottoms up!”
So Li Zhilong led his seven subordinates, each drinking half a jin!
At this point, Li Zhilong and Su Rui both had a full jin of liquor in their stomachs. The former felt dizzy, heavy-eyed, with his stomach burning.
It’s worth noting that this was a jin of high-proof Wuliangye, on an empty stomach with hardly any food as foundation, which was indeed very uncomfortable.
Su Rui glanced at Xue Ruyun, his eyes still clear.
Then he turned and called out to the doorway: “Waiter, bring some milk to help Brother Li soothe his stomach!”
Drinking milk to counter alcohol is common knowledge. If you drink half a jin of milk before drinking, your tolerance would be impressive – three or four liang of alcohol would hardly affect you.
Hearing Su Rui’s “caring” words, Li Zhilong laughed heartily: “Brother Su, you really know how to care for your big brother, but we’re men drinking together, what do we need milk for? That’s for women! If we’re drinking, let’s drink to our heart’s content today! Fill my glass again!”
“Big brother, you… you’ve had too much!” Yellow Hair said with a stiffened tongue. This guy looked tough but couldn’t handle even half a jin.
“You’re talking nonsense!” Li Zhilong slapped Yellow Hair: “Su and I hit it off immediately, this amount of alcohol is nothing! All of you should learn from Brother Su. Come, let’s have another glass together!”
The men were somewhat reluctant. How much longer could they last drinking like this?
Su Rui clapped and laughed loudly: “Brother Li is truly straightforward. Today, however much you drink, I’ll match it!”
Li Zhilong slapped his thigh and said: “Good, Brother Su, your temperament suits me perfectly. You finish yours, I’ll finish mine, and everyone else follow along!”
Since the boss was drinking this way, the others couldn’t refuse to show respect. They all drank another half jin with pained expressions. Now everyone had consumed at least a jin of alcohol.
With a jin and a half of alcohol in his stomach, Li Zhilong felt his eyelids too heavy to lift. Panting, he said to Su Rui: “Little brother, this is the first time I’ve encountered someone who drinks like you. Awesome doesn’t even begin to describe it! It’s beyond awesome! I haven’t been this happy for many days. Where should we go have fun later?”
“Where we go isn’t important. What matters is that we drink to our satisfaction first!”
Alcohol is indeed a magical thing that can turn two complete strangers into intimate friends who would do anything for each other within five minutes.
“Good, you’ve got character, I like it!” Li Zhilong laughed heartily, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth!
Su Rui walked over with another large glass of alcohol, pulled up a stool next to Li Zhilong, put his arm around the other’s shoulder, looking extremely affectionate, and said with a smile: “Brother Li, meeting someone as generous as you is my three-lifetime fortune! Someone with your capabilities must hold a high position in the Green Dragon Gang!”
Li Zhilong chuckled with a hint of pride. Due to the alcohol, his voice was somewhat stiff, and his tongue couldn’t straighten.
“Brother, you’re right, good eye. Your big brother’s position in the gang is decent. But after relying on the Bikan Group as a big tree, I believe my position in the gang should advance further. When that time comes, Brother Su, you must help me more. Keep an eye out for any business or deals for me, and I’ll introduce business to you too. We’ll achieve mutual benefits. How does that sound?”
Li Zhilong didn’t have any lofty life ideals. Advancing further in the Green Dragon Gang was his long-term goal. If someday in the future he could reach the position of deputy gang leader, it would probably far exceed this fellow’s expectations.
“Brother Li, we hit it off immediately. Even if you hadn’t mentioned it, I, Su Rui, would do the same! Actually, business is just fleeting; brotherhood is what’s real. To make a friend like Brother Li, I, Su Rui, would rather give up my job at the Bikan Group!”
“Good, good, good, that’s excellent, truly a good brother! You’re a man of your word!” Li Zhilong said, exhaling alcohol-laden breath. His hairy black hand patted Su Rui’s shoulder repeatedly, seemingly having completely forgotten about the beautiful Xue Ruyun sitting across from them.
Su Rui smiled slightly and said: “Brother Li, I greatly admire the leader of the Green Dragon Gang – Big Brother Li Yang. I wonder when I might have the opportunity to meet him?”
As he finished speaking, Su Rui’s eyes flickered momentarily, casually glancing at Xue Ruyun.
She winked at him seductively and secretly gave him a thumbs up.
Seeing this vixen make such an expression, Su Rui, who had already consumed a jin and a half of white liquor, felt a surge of fire rising from his lower abdomen. No wonder people say it’s easy to lose control after drinking. Indeed, alcohol, a highly stimulating substance, combined with beautiful women, another highly stimulating element, creates an unparalleled destructive force on men.
“Oh, if you want to meet him, that’s easy! Although our big brother only holds a regular gang meeting once a month, he goes to the Kaidi Entertainment Club to relax every night, year after year, without fail!” At this point, Li Zhilong lowered his voice and whispered in Su Rui’s ear: “Brother, I’m only telling you this because we get along well. I wouldn’t tell just anyone. Our boss has a super large, luxurious private room at the Kaidi Entertainment Club. Every night, beautiful women parade for him!”
Hearing this, Su Rui’s eyes flickered again, and the corners of his mouth curved into a slight smile.
“So Big Brother Li Yang has such refined taste? The Kaidi Entertainment Club is said to be one of the best entertainment venues in Ninghai!”
“Of course!” Li Zhilong laughed heartily, “I rarely have the chance to go in there. Once I accompanied the boss inside, and it was absolutely a paradise of pleasure! Those women were extremely open, extremely open! Although I find a couple of girls to accompany me every night, compared to the boss, I’m nothing! Not even a drop in the bucket!”
Su Rui smiled slightly, raised his voice, and said to everyone present: “Brothers, I feel we all get along exceptionally well today. It’s rare to make such good friends. Why don’t I treat everyone to a good time at the Kaidi Entertainment Club? What do you say?”
These men were middle or lower-middle level members of the Green Dragon Gang. The Kaidi Entertainment Club was quite expensive; with their income, they’d probably need a month’s salary for one visit. Therefore, they usually didn’t enter such high-end nightclubs – those girls cost at least a thousand per session!
Hearing Su Rui’s invitation, these men’s eyes lit up involuntarily.
With a rich guy here, why not take advantage? Who wouldn’t want a chance to indulge in luxury? Who wouldn’t want to taste the women at the Kaidi Entertainment Club?
Everyone seemed tempted, looking eagerly at Li Zhilong, clearly very excited about this prospect.
Seeing this, Su Rui stood up, slapped the table again, and said: “Brothers, tonight is my treat. Order as much good liquor and as many beautiful women as you want. One person gets two, three, no, five women to sleep with. How about that?”
Hearing Su Rui speak this way, the vixen Xue Ruyun across from him couldn’t help but glare at him. However, her glare was still full of charm, with one part reproach and nine parts seduction.
Hearing Su Rui’s words, those seven guys became even more excited. None of them had experienced how extravagant the Kaidi Entertainment Club was. What man wouldn’t want to enjoy himself there, with five women to sleep with, and not having to pay? Such good fortune was like pie falling from the sky!
Li Zhilong felt that, as a mid-level leader in the Green Dragon Gang and an important figure, if he went to the Kaidi Nightclub tonight and met Big Brother Li Yang, it would be awkward. The boss might think he wasn’t focused on gang affairs and work, but instead indulging in nightly pleasures!
This would have a very negative impact on his image. Even though he was quite drunk, Li Zhilong still maintained relatively normal thinking. Indeed, to rise to his current position in such a large gang was not something a fool could achieve.
“I think I’ll pass. Let’s just enjoy our drinks today. Another day, I’ll treat you all to a different nightclub. How about that? At that time, Brother Su, you must honor us with your presence, otherwise it would be disrespecting me, Li.” Li Zhilong’s words undoubtedly extinguished the hopes of his subordinates. These men had just kindled hope, only to have it instantly doused.
Having already extracted Li Yang’s whereabouts, Su Rui didn’t insist further, but said: “Brother Li, today Su Rui has hit it off with all you brothers. No need for more words, I’ll drink first to show respect!”
With that, Su Rui poured himself another full glass, another half jin!
If he drank it, Su Rui would have consumed two jin tonight!
But except for Xue Ruyun, who remained sober throughout, no one seemed to notice that Su Rui, apart from a slight change in his speaking pace, remained steady without any flushing or palpitations. Even the smile on his face appeared completely natural.
“Good!” Li Zhilong said: “You cowards, look at how manly Brother Su is. Don’t embarrass our Green Dragon Gang. Brothers, fill your glasses to the brim!”
“Good, good, good, fill them up!”
Half a case of Wuliangye was gone in the blink of an eye!
“Come on, drink up!” Li Zhilong said heroically, finishing his drink first!
Su Rui smiled and tilted his head back, drinking as if it were water – though it was really quite filling!
After this round, almost all the Green Dragon Gang members except Su Rui had collapsed on the table, drooling and unconscious!
Although Su Rui appeared clear-headed, the alcohol on his breath was undeniable. He sat down beside Xue Ruyun, seeming somewhat drunk. He gently patted her smooth, sleek thigh again and said: “How do you feel? Did your little brother disappoint you this time?”
