Reborn in 2015, I became a male god starting in high school.

Chapter 143 2nd

Chapter 143, Part 2

After the first drink was finished, the atmosphere improved a bit.

Zhou Guowei poured himself another drink and said:

Ziyang, this is the second glass. My son and I will drink it alone.

“I’m really happy for your achievements today, but I also feel ashamed. I haven’t fulfilled my responsibilities as a father during your upbringing, and I’m truly ashamed,” Zhou Guowei said with some sadness.

"That's too much, that's too much to say. Today is such a happy day, Dad, don't be so sad. I think things are fine as they are. You're doing well, and I'm doing well too, aren't I?" Zhou Ziyang said, clinking his glass with Zhou Guowei's.

Xu Qing also noticed that Zhou Guowei was a little out of control, and chimed in, "That's right, it's such a happy day today."

"Old Zhou, you haven't had a drink yet."

"Yes, son is right. Today is a happy day. Son, I am really happy."

Zhou Guowei kept emphasizing that he was very happy, saying that Zhou Ziyang was promising, had been admitted to university, and was successful in making money.

He drank the beverage as if it were alcohol, which is a case of getting drunk on his own, not on the alcohol.

In the end, I still opened that bottle of Wuliangye.

Drinking beverages ultimately doesn't feel good.

Zhou Ziyang could choose not to drink, but he definitely had to. Without alcohol, he simply wouldn't know what to say.

Xu Qing also said, "Okay, Lao Zhou, I'll have a drink with you."

“Then I’ll have some too,” Xia Wei quickly said.

"What are you doing causing trouble? You should learn from Ziyang." Xu Qing glared at Xia Wei.

Zhou Guowei said, "If the child wants to drink, let him have a little."

“Exactly!” Xia Wei agreed and made a face at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing definitely didn't want Xia Wei to drink, but Zhou Guowei thought he wanted to put pressure on Zhou Ziyang by having everyone at the table drink.

Zhou Ziyang has a thick skin.

Anyone can drink.

He doesn't drink alcohol.

I poured Xia Wei a glass of Wuliangye liquor.

Xia Wei took a small sip herself and was so spicy she was like a puppy, saying it was really awful.

"Then why are you still drinking!" Xu Qing said, dissatisfied.

Xia Wei pouted, clearly indicating that she didn't want to drink anymore.

Zhou Ziyang, however, said that's how drinking is.

"It will feel spicy at first, but you should just drink it all in one go."

"Nonsense, Ziyang, you're just teaching her nonsense," Xu Qing immediately retorted upon hearing this.

Zhou Ziyang smiled and said, "I'm telling the truth, Aunt Xu. This cup will definitely warm you up."

Xu Qing rolled her eyes at Zhou Ziyang: "Then you should set an example for your sister."

Zhou Ziyang then said, "I can't drink."

"I have to drive."

This remark livened up the atmosphere at the table.

Zhou Guowei drank three cups with Zhou Ziyang in a row and wanted Zhou Ziyang to drink one with him, but Zhou Ziyang refused, saying he couldn't drink alcohol.

The more he said that, the more depressed Zhou Guowei became, and he could only drink alone in silence.

Xia Wei, being quite tactful, raised her wine glass to Zhou Guowei:
"Uncle Zhou, let me raise a glass to you to thank you for taking care of me all these years!"

No wonder Zhou Guowei treated Xia Wei so well in his past life.

There was really no other way; on the one hand, there was the son who just wouldn't warm up no matter what.

On the one hand, although she is not her own child, she is indeed a very caring and thoughtful daughter.

Even if Zhou Ziyang were to achieve great things, Xia Wei's actions still brought Zhou Guowei comfort. He raised his glass, smiled, and said, "It's nothing, it's just what I should do."

The two of them then shared a drink.

At this moment, Xu Qing also poured herself a glass of wine. She looked at Zhou Ziyang, who was only focused on eating, and said, "Ziyang, come on, Aunt Xu will toast you."

Zhou Ziyang held his drink cup, waiting for Xu Qing to speak.

Xu Qing spoke very seriously, saying, "Auntie has to apologize to you first."

Zhou Guowei was pleased to hear this and told Zhou Ziyang to listen carefully to what his Aunt Xu had to say.

But Xu Qing said that her aunt had indeed done many wrong things before.

"Auntie didn't understand you and had many misunderstandings about you. Later, Auntie realized her mistakes. Auntie wants to say that she hopes you will give Auntie a chance."

"You may have some deep misunderstandings about your aunt, but you can't let me affect your relationship with Weiwei. I'll drink this glass first."

After saying this, Xu Qing downed a glass of baijiu in one gulp.

Xia Wei and Zhou Guowei cheered from the other side.

Xu Qing was a master at drinking; before Zhou Ziyang could even say a word, Xu Qing had already finished speaking.

Zhou Ziyang sighed and said, "Aunt Xu, actually you don't have any misunderstandings about me. Oh well, there's no point in saying anything more. You've already drunk your wine, so I'll drink mine too."

After saying that, Zhou Ziyang finished the drink in his cup in one gulp.

Seeing that Zhou Ziyang had drunk his beverage, Xia Wei smiled and said, "Okay, then let's settle everything today."

Zhou Ziyang smiled.

Xu Qing was also quite happy. She poured herself another glass of wine, but didn't rush to drink with Zhou Ziyang.

Instead, she first put a piece of food on Zhou Ziyang's plate and said, "Auntie does have a deep misunderstanding about you."

"Your aunt always thought that the car and house you have in Jinling were provided by your father."

"I only realized now that you earned it all by yourself, so Auntie really admires you."

Zhou Ziyang was puzzled. He looked at Zhou Guowei, then at Xu Qing, and asked, "Did my dad tell you this?"

Xu Qing smiled gently: "Of course not."

“Weiwei told me all of this. If Weiwei hadn’t told me, I really wouldn’t have known.”

"I never imagined Ziyang, you're so capable, starting your own company at such a young age."

"If you need any help in the future, please don't hesitate to ask Weiwei for help. With you by Weiwei's side, Auntie feels at ease."

Xu Qing smiled as she served food to Zhou Ziyang.

It was obvious that Xia Wei had told Xu Qing about her part-time job for Zhou Ziyang in Jinling.

Now Xu Qing finally understood the whole story and realized how formidable Zhou Ziyang was.

I really hope that Zhou Ziyang can give Xia Wei more training in the future.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Ziyang humbly replied, "Actually, my father also helped with this company."

"I didn't help much; it was all because you're young and capable."

Zhou Ziyang wanted to shift the blame a little, but who would have thought that Zhou Guowei wouldn't help at all? Zhou Guowei was actually quite pleased with Zhou Ziyang starting his company.

Xu Qing smiled and said, "Ziyang, you don't need to be modest. We all know you are very capable."

Seeing that Xu Qing and Zhou Guowei both approved of Zhou Ziyang, Xia Wei was very happy. She giggled and said, "Me too, I also think Zhou Ziyang is very capable."

Zhou Ziyang glanced at her and said, "Thank you."

They drank and toasted each other, and no one knows how many glasses of wine they drank.

Zhou Guowei was genuinely happy and gratified, so he drank a couple more glasses of wine, but he didn't get drunk; he just felt slightly dizzy.

Xu Qing had also drunk quite a bit, her face was flushed, and she had a certain charm.

Zhou Guowei kept patting Zhou Ziyang on the shoulder to express his satisfaction.

Xu Qing kept urging Zhou Ziyang and Xia Wei to get along well.

After several rounds of dishes and several drinks, the meal was served.

I don't know how long they chatted. Zhou Ziyang arrived around 5 PM.

Then we ate at 5:30, and it took until 8 o'clock in total.

It took about three hours to eat.

I unknowingly drank half of the Wuliangye that I had just opened.

Of course, Zhou Ziyang really didn't touch a drop of alcohol.

Zhou Guowei was still not finished, and he continued to share his life experience with Zhou Ziyang.

When the topic of marriage came up at the end, Zhou Guowei was somewhat moved.

I almost said something I'd regret.

He said, "The person I've wronged the most in my life is your mother."

Xu Qing was standing right next to him at the time, and his expression immediately changed.

Zhou Ziyang quickly said, "Dad, you're drunk. Okay, okay, let's not talk about this anymore."

"I'm not drunk."

Zhou Guowei wanted to continue speaking.

However, Zhou Ziyang stopped him, insisting that he was drunk.

"Aunt Xu, how about my dad and I go for a walk?"

As Zhou Ziyang spoke, he thought of helping his father out.

"Let me do it."

Xu Qing helped support him and quickly said, "This is an old problem of his. I'll take him out for some fresh air and he'll be fine. Weiwei, you stay here and keep Ziyang company."

"Huh?" Xia Wei asked, puzzled.

However, Xu Qing had already helped Zhou Guowei up.

Zhou Guowei didn't drink much; he just got carried away with his emotions and couldn't help but talk too much.

Now that I've been interrupted, I've come to my senses.

Especially after being supported by Xu Qing, he murmured a couple of times, "Ah, I'm getting old."

"It's time to go out for a walk."

“Right? Let’s go out for a walk and let the young people spend more time together,” Xu Qing said with a smile.

Zhou Guowei hesitated somewhat after hearing this.

But after glancing at Zhou Ziyang, she remembered what Xia Wei had just said to her.

Finally, he sighed.

I thought I should help Weiwei.

After all, it was raised by my side.

So the two of them said they were going out for a walk, leaving Zhou Ziyang and Xia Wei at home.

"No, Mom, how could you just leave like that!"

Xia Wei was surprised by how helpful her uncle and mother were, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.

The huge house was now empty except for Zhou Ziyang and Xia Wei.

Xia Wei was genuinely shy for a moment.

"Then, shall I take you to my room to look at the Water Margin cards?"

Zhou Ziyang said, "What's so interesting about the Water Margin cards? Show me around."

"There's not much to see here."

Zhou Guowei's family home consists of two combined apartments, which is indeed large, mainly consisting of four bedrooms and two bathrooms. Now, it has been converted into a room for Xia Wei, a room for Xu Qing, a master bedroom for Zhou Guowei, and a study.

Xu Qing doesn't usually stay in her room, and there's nothing particularly nice about it; it's mostly filled with cosmetics.

Zhou Guowei's room was the former bedroom of Zhou Ziyang's mother and father.

Zhou Ziyang remembered this room.

Xia Wei told Zhou Ziyang that Uncle Zhou was living alone now.

The door is not closed.

Zhou Ziyang simply grabbed Xia Wei's hand and said, "Let's go inside and take a look."

Upon entering, I found that, indeed, this bedroom, which was about 30 square meters, was quite large.

It's usually said that Zhou Guowei lives there alone, but it's very clean.

The room smelled nice, and the bed was for two people.

The wedding bed was still the same wedding bed, but the bedding was newly bought.

In addition to the wedding bed, there is also a small desk.

The clothes rack held Zhou Guowei's usual clothes, as well as several women's lace camisoles.

Xia Wei saw what Zhou Ziyang was looking at, and blushed a little. She said, "Zhou Ziyang, don't mind it."

Zhou Ziyang put his arm around Xia Wei's shoulder and said, "Why would I care? Isn't this just a matter of course?"

"But."

Xia Wei felt embarrassed and wanted to say something more.

But Zhou Ziyang kissed her on the lips.

"Well,"

Zhou Ziyang's kiss seemed to have a magical power, making it impossible for Xia Wei to refuse. She could only close her eyes, hug Zhou Ziyang's neck, and soon they were kissing again.

The two hugged and kissed for a while.

Zhou Ziyang put his arm around Xia Wei's slender waist and pushed her all the way to the bed.

Actually, when we were in Xia Wei's room earlier, Zhou Ziyang had already been thinking about taking Xia Wei.

However, it was interrupted because of Zhou Guowei.

To be honest, Zhou Ziyang was a little absent-minded while eating.

Although I've been with Jiang Menghan a few times, a whole week has passed.

After that encounter with Jiang Menghan, Zhou Ziyang not only failed to calm down, but his desire for her was also aroused.

Since Xia Wei is being so proactive...

Moreover, Xu Qing and Zhou Guowei are so willing.

Then I'll grant their wish.

Think of this.

Zhou Ziyang pulled Xia Wei directly onto Zhou Guowei's bed.
