Chapter 71


    But out of politeness, she reached out her hand and shook his hand gently. "Hello."


    They all greeted each other briefly. It was Ji Chuanyi''s turn. Before he could speak, Shu Tian called out


    obediently, "Brother Chuanyi."


    Hearing this, Ling Junze and Pei Yu looked at each other, and through their eyes, they were seemingly


    saying, "Good for him."


    Li Han sat down expressionlessly with his arm around her. He nced at Ji Chuanyi who was gloating.


    "A man whose life has been half spent feels good to be called "brother" by a young girl?"


    Ji Chuanyi felt grieved. "I''m thirty-two. We are the same age, okay?"


    If his life could be said to have been spent half, then Li Han was no better.


    Unexpectedly, Li Han said without changing his face, "My real age is younger than that in my ID card."


    "It''s no more than a few days!" Ji Chuanyi was shocked. He didn''t expect Boss Li, famous for being


    serious, to be so shameless!


    Shu Tian turned slightly to his ear and asked, "When''s your birthday?"


    He raised his eyebrows slightly. "December 25th."


    Shu Tian was slightly surprised. "It''s Christmas Day."


    "Mmm." Li Han didn''t care much. He hadn''t celebrated his birthday for so many years, and he had long


    regarded it as the most ordinary day. For him, his birthday after his parents divorced became

    meaningless.


    Shu Tian sat up straight and calcted in her mind that December 25th was less than a month away.


    Would she send something as a gift to him by then?


    However, she couldn''t afford the expensive one, and the cheap one couldn''t be counted as a proper


    gift. Li Han usually looked like he didn''tck anything.


    Just as she was fretting, the waiter had already served an aperitif. There were three kinds of aperitifs,


    each in a different ss. When Li Han saw that she wanted to drink, he pointed to a light brown liquid


    on the side. "You drink this."


    Shu Tian understood what he meant and was a little embarrassed. After all, he had bumped into her


    when she was drunk and probably knew how little she could drink...


    She picked up the ss and took a small sip. It was sour but bitter, but not disgusting to drink. It was


    more of a mellow and refreshing taste, but she didn''t know how much this small ss of wine cost.


    French food had its priorities, from appetizers to main dishes to the final desserts. It took a long time to


    finish a meal. Shu Tian was a little restrained from the beginning, but Pei Yu and the others took care of


    her. After all, she was too young to be so scheming so she quickly opened herself up.


    The meal was very enjoyable. All the men present had the habit of smoking cigarettes. When they felt


    like smoking, they called Li Han to the main entrance of the first floor to smoke one.


    "Brother Li Han, my sister-inw is too cute!" As soon as he reached downstairs, Pei Yu began to


    speak freely. He shouted "sister-inw" more quickly than anyone else. "I think getting along with her


    will definitely make me feel younger."


    As he spoke, he nudged Ling Junze, "Don''t you think so?"


    "Your intelligence speaks for your age. You don''t need to be younger." Ling Junze teased him, "But Shu


    Tian is much more innocent than I thought."


    At this point, Ling Junze felt the same way.


    Shu Tian was different from those random women outside. She was very refreshing, both in her


    character and appearance, which attracted others to get close to her.


    Li Han listened quietly, not making a sound. When a cigarette was almost finished, he looked at Pei Yu.


    "You can go in first and keep an eye on her."


    Pei Yu was the most talkative of the few, and Shu Tian wouldn''t feel bored or awkward with him.


    Hearing this, Pei Yu rarely cooperated. After smoking, he turned around and walked upstairs. Ling


    Junze, Ji Chuanyi, and Li Han were left standing there.


    Ling Junze was not a heavy smoker, so he stopped smoking after one cigarette. He turned to look at


    the tall man beside him. "Han, what do you think?"


    He meant something, and everyone understood what he was thinking about.


    Li Han had already lit his second cigarette, put it on his lips, and took a deep breath. "Just follow the


    n."


    Ling Junze nodded and said, "You have to be prepared for the affairs in the United States. Chujing


    hasn''t been in a stable state recently. I''ll ask Dr. George to pay more attention... By the way, does Shu


    Tian know about this?"


    Li Han took a quick puff of smoke and quickly exhaled. His brows furrowed slightly, and his deep eyes


    looked dodgy. "No."


    Ling Junze lowered his voice and whispered hesitantly, "Aren''t you going to tell her?"


    "Not yet."


    Hearing this, Ling Junze did not say anything more. He just thought about Jiang Chujing''s recent


    situation and the rtionship between Shu Tian and Li Han and felt a little uneasy.


    He hoped he was just worrying too much.


    Ji Chuanyi listened and did not speak. Although he knew these things, he could not interfere. Jiang


    Chujing was a very special existence for Li Han.


    After a leisurely cigarette, it took another ten minutes for the three of them to return to the second floor.


    However, Li Han did not expect that Shu Tian had been drunk in less than a quarter of an hour since he


    came out.


    On this side, Pei Yu was still drinking with Shu Tian. "Sister-inw, I salute you with this ss of wine.


    Now that you can win the favor of Li Han, you are definitely a heroine."


    Shu Tianughed so hard. "I also think so. You know how difficult it is to get along with Li Han, don''t


    you? He''s old, has a bad temper, and doesn''t take people seriously. Oh, I admire myself! Cheers!"


    Li Han had seen what Shu Tian looked like after getting drunk, and all the unruliness in her bones


    came out under the influence of alcohol, but...


    What did she just say?


    He was old, bad-tempered, and arrogant?


    Was this the image he had in her heart?


    Ling Junze saw that Li Han''s face darkened so he secretly became worried about Shu Tian. She was


    the first person who dared toment on Li Han like that.


    Shu Tian picked up the ss and was about to deliver it to her mouth. Before she could seed, she


    was snatched by another big hand. She looked up and met Li Han''s dark eyes. "You''re back..."


    Li Han ignored her and looked at Pei Yu, who was still conscious. "Did you force her to drink?"


    Although Pei Yu did not drink much, he was also a little drunk. His beautiful eyes shone brightly.


    "Brother Han, this is the first time I met my sister-inw, so I am inevitably excited. Just allow me to do


    that!"


    "..."


    The woman sitting by the side, who had not spoken all night, suddenly said, "She drank a lot. Almost


    half a bottle of red wine."


    Li Han nced at Pei Yu, who had already hid behind Ling Junze and didn''t dare to look at him. He


    lowered his eyes and looked at Shu Tian''s flushed cheeks. Although his tone was impatient, the


    gentleness in his eyes was so real. "You know how little you can drink. Why did you have to drink too


    much?"


    Shu Tian wouldn''t tell him that she didn''t want to drink, but Pei Yuined to him about Li Han. She


    agreed with him so much that she drank too much without holding back.


    "I feel dizzy."


    At a time like this, it was most effective to pretend to be pitiful.
