No wonder these relatives and friends were so surprised. This way of drinking has a name: going around the table.
It means going around the table and having a drink with each person. But ordinary people usually use small wine cups.
With such cups, even a heavy drinker can't handle it when there are many people. No one would believe it without seeing it with their own eyes.
But now the fact is right in front of them. They were all drunk one by one by Shu Yunyi going around the table.
What's even more astonishing is that Shu Yunyi herself showed no sign of being affected, as if she had just made a casual effort.
Everyone couldn't help but guess that it seemed she could even handle another catty of wine.
The youngest uncle, who had the poorest tolerance among them, was sitting there blankly with glazed eyes, looking as if he was about to slump under the table at any moment.
The few men who could hold their liquor the best also dared not say a word. They were sitting there drinking water and eating food to sober up.
Shen's Mother was shocked to see this. The dinner was supposed to be a happy occasion, and she was worried that Shu Yunyi might drink herself into trouble. So she quickly advised,
"Good girl, that's enough. You haven't eaten much. Be careful of hurting your stomach."
"Don't drink anymore. Thank you, dear."
Shu Yunyi's actions were obviously to win face for the Shen family. Shen's Mother wasn't blind and could clearly see that. Her words were filled with both joy and concern.
Seeing this, the second aunt couldn't help but swallow hard. None of the defeated people at this table could be a match for Shu Yunyi. If they continued to drink, they might not even be able to get home.
Shu Yunyi thought her current state was just right.
Except for Shen Yi, the youngest uncle who always liked to show off, the others were all slightly drunk but not completely out of it.
"Auntie, I'll listen to you."
Shu Yunyi readily agreed.
"Alright, stop drinking. I'll go and get the rice."
"Everyone, have some rice to fill your stomachs."
Saying this, Shen's Mother stood up and was about to go to the kitchen to get the rice cooker.
At this time, the courtyard gate creaked as it opened, and the sound of footsteps approached.
Everyone looked towards the door at the same time. They saw Shen Yi walking out of the darkness.
After a three - hour drive in a hurry, he finally arrived home.
Shu Yunyi's beautiful eyes lit up. When their eyes met, she couldn't contain her inner joy. The corners of her mouth involuntarily turned up, and her heart started pounding. A warm current welled up in her heart, as sweet as honey.
The stool scraped across the floor with a sharp noise as Shu Yunyi stood up and rushed towards Shen Yi.
The tight - fitting dress couldn't stop her swift steps. She rushed up to him in just a few steps.
There were glimmers of light in Shu Yunyi's pupils. Her face, which hadn't changed after more than a dozen glasses of wine, now flushed a deep red, as delicate as a lotus flower.
Her eyes were filled with both the joy of reunion and infatuation for Shen Yi. Crossing over past and present lives, she finally achieved her wish.
Shu Yunyi buried her head in Shen Yi's chest, closed her eyes and felt his presence. She hugged his waist tightly with both hands,
"Xiaoyi, it's so good to see you again..."
"Wow!"
The elder cousin sister and the younger aunt by marriage beside them were filled with girlish excitement. They clapped their hands and cheered, looking like they had just witnessed a wonderful romance.
The elders around them also showed smiles on their faces. Although they were usually reserved about expressing their emotions, they still didn't mind such a sweet scene.
Of course, seeing the elegant female teacher in public lose her composure and show a girlish side also surprised several of them.
By now, Shen Yi couldn't and didn't want to hide his memory anymore. He just wanted to recognize her immediately.
He held the young - looking Shu Yunyi in his arms. There was a sense of time turning back in his heart. It felt warm inside. He leaned over and whispered to comfort her,
"I've been waiting for you, my Teacher Shu."
Shu Yunyi's heart fluttered with excitement. After taking a long, deep breath, she managed to calm down her emotions and didn't shed tears on the spot.
The hot breath from her breathing hit Shen Yi's neck, accompanied by a faint smell of alcohol. Shen Yi immediately frowned.
He couldn't help but hold her shoulders with both hands, leaned over to smell carefully, and exclaimed in surprise,
"You've been drinking?!"
Shu Yunyi's heart skipped a beat. In her joy just now, she had forgotten about this.
The fear engraved in her heart from her past life seemed to come back again. The memory of that decadent and crazy experience welled up in her mind.
She couldn't help but lower her head and mumbled pitifully,
"Sorry..."
Shen Yi looked at her angrily and said,
"You..."
Then he leaned over and scolded her in a low voice,
"Don't you know how you died in your past life? Why don't you learn your lesson?"
Seeing that the good - natured situation between them suddenly took a turn for the worse, the second aunt, Liu Huimin, was the first to voice her dissatisfaction,
"Xiaoyi, Second Aunt can't stand this. What on earth has our little Shu done to offend you?"
Although Shu Yunyi had only known these elders for a few hours, they were all impressed by her behavior and spoke up for her, scolding Shen Yi.
"What's wrong with little Shu having a drink with us?"
"Yes, as soon as you come back, you're being so rude. It's like you're trying to show off."
"Don't be afraid, little Shu. We'll support you."
All the elders present were scolding, and Shen Yi could only listen. Even Shen's Mother frowned in dissatisfaction.
Shen Yi didn't expect that a casual remark would arouse public outrage. He glanced at Shu Yunyi in surprise.
No wonder she was a professor. She was so good at uniting people. Now if he refuted, he would be on the opposite side.
So he had to suppress his words for the moment, forced a smile, and waved his hand to explain,
"No, no. She's not in good health and can't drink now."
The elder relatives obviously didn't realize the seriousness of the problem and waved their hands, saying that it didn't matter to have a little drink occasionally.
Shen Yi continued to explain patiently,
"She has a big drinking problem. That's why I don't let her drink too much. In fact, my next step was to get her to quit drinking."
Then he walked over and sat down in Shu Yunyi's seat and continued,
"Second aunt's husband, Second Aunt, youngest uncle, younger aunt by marriage, if you haven't had enough to drink, I'll drink with you on her behalf."
When the elders at the table heard this, they were almost stunned. They quickly shook their heads and denied it. They were just standing up for Shu Yunyi, not really wanting to drink more.
"That's enough, that's enough. No more drinking, no more."
"Where's Xiaoyi's mom? Hurry up and serve the rice. We're starving."
They quickly changed the topic, thinking,
'One of your wives is already hard enough to handle. Are you trying to have a husband - wife relay of drinking? We can't be fooled.'
Seeing that the situation had calmed down, Shu Yunyi leaned over to Shen Yi, looking coy, and apologized in a low voice,
"I was wrong~"
"It's just this once. I won't dare to do it again."
Shen Yi didn't say a word. He wasn't joking about getting her to quit drinking. He had experience and knew that it had to be done all at once without any slack.
At this time, Shen's Mother came in with the rice cooker. Shen Yi nodded at Shu Yunyi and said,
"Go and help mom serve the rice."
Shu Yunyi was sitting there looking wronged. Hearing this, she immediately got up like a docile little wife and went to do it.
This scene fell into the eyes of several "heads of the family". They looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.
Was this still the university teacher they thought she was just a few hours ago?
Even Shen's Father couldn't help but admire his son's way of handling things.
Turning the situation around?
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
