Starting by picking up a female fan, he swept through the martial arts world.

Chapter 82 A Test from the Warlord Father-in-Law

Bai Jie was completely dumbfounded; this was a situation he had never imagined.

No?

How did you end up with your arms around each other's shoulders?

Even your own son wouldn't get this kind of treatment in public!

Jiang Lang was also a little confused.

He could imagine the suit would be stylish, but he didn't expect it to be this stylish.

You should know that this middle-aged man with graying temples is the one who holds the highest power in the vertical lineage.

He is also one of the few people in the entire Yunjin region who, in terms of individual combat strength alone, I need to be wary of.

Even Jiang Tai, who had just been promoted to Director of the Maritime Trade Office, could only bow and scrape and call him "Old Chief," but after seeing this formal suit, he showed no airs at all.

Bai Heng hooked his arm around Jiang Lang's neck: "Did you hear that? Zhao Li wants to help you fend off the drinks, are you going to let her or not?"

"That's absolutely impossible!"

Jiang Lang wasn't one to be impolite: "I'll drink with you to your heart's content today!"

Bai Heng laughed heartily: "Good! Your uncle likes straightforward people."

talking.

They pressed Jiang Lang down into a chair.

This is a small round table, only enough for four or five people to sit down temporarily to rest and chat. But judging from Bai Heng's demeanor, he seems to think that he can drink a thousand cups of wine with his son-in-law.

Bai Zhaoli hurriedly followed, saying, "Dad! Don't bully young people like that, your alcohol tolerance is..."

Bai Heng interrupted with a laugh: "What? You're already siding with outsiders? Sit down, you and Ah Lang will drink with Dad today!"

"Didn't you forbid me from drinking?"

"Today is an exception!"

'

Bai Zhaoli was also stunned for a moment. She had expected the dress to be strong, but she hadn't expected it to be this strong.

At this moment, Bai Jie arrived, laughing heartily, "Dad! This is my first time drinking with my brother-in-law, I'll definitely keep him company!"

"accompany?"

Bai Heng glanced at him: "Do I need you to keep me company? Go get the wine, bring it over, and go wherever you want."

White Calamity:

He felt a bit of chest tightness, but still brought over a few bottles of the strongest liquor, and then went to find his own small group.

Wang Yao was frantic: "Brother Jie! What happened? Didn't you say you were going to ruin Jiang Lang's reputation today? How come—"

Bai Jie, unusually, broke down: "Disgraced? After tonight, he might have to sweep the floor at my house!"

Why should I sweep your floor?

"Nonsense! He married into my family; if he's not sweeping the floor at my house, where is he sweeping the floor?"

'

'

Everyone looked at each other, completely bewildered.

When they first came back and heard that Bai Zhaoli was in a relationship, they were already shocked once.

After all, Bai Zhaoli has always been Bai Heng's darling. She has seen so-called young talents since she was a child, and her standards are extremely high. Moreover, she doesn't have to be burdened by social interactions, so very few people can catch her eye.

The result—Jiang Lang, what the hell?

Originally, it was thought to be just an accident, and even if Bai Zhaoli had lost her mind, Bai Heng would not be satisfied with this son-in-law.

Judging from the current situation, Bai Heng is more proactive than Bai Zhaoli.

What's going on?

On the other end.

Jiang Lang thoughtfully poured three glasses of wine: two full and one just barely covering the bottom. He first gave Bai Heng a full glass, and then pushed the smaller one in front of Bai Zhaoli.

He then adopted the demeanor of a humble and respectful new son-in-law: "Uncle! I'm not good with words and don't know what to say. I'm just happy to meet you today, so let me offer you a drink first."

After saying that, he downed the wine in his glass.

Then, with a ferocious expression, he turned the cup upside down to indicate that he had finished drinking.

"This liquor is really strong!"

"You little brat!"

Bai Heng was very satisfied with his performance, and drank his wine in one gulp as if it were water.

After finishing his drink, without batting an eye, he looked at Jiang Lang with a mocking smile: "If you're not good with words, then there's no one in the world who can argue eloquently. I see you're pretty good at arguing with people in the Special Operations Department; you were quite eloquent when you talked to Chen Shi yesterday."

Jiang Lang chuckled憨厚ly: "That has nothing to do with my words. It's mainly because I hate stupid people. I can't help but criticize stupid people when I meet them. I'm not usually very good at talking either."

Bai Zhaoli reluctantly chimed in, "Yes, Dad. He's usually not very good with words."

They said that, but they were actually complaining inside.

You can infuriate people with your words normally, and you're pretending to be innocent here.

Bai Heng laughed heartily: "That won't do! You can't just use your limited eloquence to argue with people. You need to learn how to coax young ladies. Zhao Li will be with you in the future. If you, as her husband, don't coax her, do you expect me, as her father, to do it?"

Jiang Lang: "————"

No?

I feel like something's getting increasingly off.

Is this the prelude to getting married on the spot?

He couldn't help but look at Bai Zhaoli.

Bai Zhaoli smiled and took his arm, saying, "Why don't you hurry up and learn from my dad?"

Jiang Lang: "————"

He understood that look; there were two words clearly written in Bai Zhaoli's eyes.

Pith!

He gritted his teeth and filled the two empty cups again: "I will definitely learn slowly in the future."

Bai Heng smiled with satisfaction: "Then you have to promise me that you can only coax Zhao Li from now on, and you can't coax those disreputable women outside."

"That was designated!"

"Cheers!"

"Dry!"

Another full glass.

Jiang Lang began to admire Bai Heng. As someone who owned a bar, his alcohol tolerance was naturally quite high. His initial aggressive drinking was merely a show of weakness to make a good impression.

But Bai Heng is acting a bit too aggressively; he probably won't be able to avoid getting drunk today.

Before the banquet had even officially started, the father and son had already been forced to drink until they were slightly tipsy.

Bai Heng snatched the wine bottle, poured two more full glasses, and casually filled Bai Zhaoli's glass with half a glass of wine: "Zhaoli, don't try to cheat. You've taken so many sips, but you haven't drunk any wine at all."

Bai Zhaoli was shocked: "Dad? You really want me to drink it!"

Jiang Lang seemed a little dizzy. He sipped half of his glass along the rim, then picked up Bai Zhaoli's glass and poured it into his own: "I'm doing this for—"

"Who wants you to take their place?"

Bai Zhaoli snatched the cup away: "I can drink it myself!"

She then forced herself to drink a few mouthfuls, choking and coughing until her pretty face turned red.

Bai Heng sighed with some emotion, "Ah Lang!"

"Um!

'

"The dress is nice; it has good taste."

"I think it looks great too!"

"You have good taste!"

Bai Heng refilled his glass: "Let's continue!"

Jiang Lang: "————"

Not a buddy?

Do you really drink alcohol like water?

After a few more drinks, Jiang Lang was genuinely a little dizzy, while Bai Heng remained completely unaffected.

"Ah Lang!"

"Uncle, please speak!"

"How have you been spending these past few years in the Azure Vein Domain?"

"Ha! It's all about studying and then getting into fights."

Jiang Lang slurred his words, but he was already on high alert. He could clearly feel that strands of spiritual energy were clinging to every muscle that could move his expression, and even binding his pulse, constantly monitoring the speed of his heartbeat.

Just know!

His "father-in-law" was no pushover.

Fortunately, he was prepared and managed to keep his body in a state of intoxication.

Bai Heng asked casually, "How did you meet your friend who sells mirrors?"

"We met through a fight, back then—"

"So, it seems you two have a very good relationship?"

"It's great! He even gives me a discount when he sells mirrors."

"But you said your relationship with the Secret Service was just average—"

"Um!?"

Jiang Lang jolted awake, as if he had instantly sobered up. He looked at Bai Heng hesitantly, appearing guilty.

Bai Heng laughed heartily: "Why are you so nervous? They're all our own kids, what are you going to do to me?"

Jiang Lang: "But I didn't tell the truth—"

Bai Heng laughed and said, "Only a fool would tell the truth! But Ah Lang, if possible, could you introduce your friend to your uncle?"

Jiang Lang pondered for a long time: "He is a free spirit, I can't guarantee it will work out, but I will definitely convey your message."

Even if I can't persuade you, I can still wholesale you some mirrors; those things are treasures.

"very good!"

Bai Heng nodded in satisfaction; he was indeed not angry at all about the matter.

On the contrary, Jiang Lang's performance made him particularly satisfied.

She's a bit cunning and knows how to protect herself. Even she and Qin Wei were fooled into saying "I'm a big idiot" a few times.

But he's not particularly cunning, making him a suitable son-in-law; my daughter won't suffer if she stays with him.

His gaze lingered on Jiang Lang's clothes for a long time, then he looked at his daughter. After a few drinks, she was clearly incoherent and was leaning on Jiang Lang's shoulder, chuckling foolishly.

Some emotions can't be acted out.

Jiang Lang, too, reveals a lot through some of his natural movements.

He suddenly spoke up: "Ah Lang! Have you noticed something?"

"Please speak!"

"Your personality isn't suited for academia; you're better suited for the military. I heard from Zhao Li that you're quite good at cultivating your skills in the Horned Star realm, so you're sure to achieve great things in the military. How about this: I'll arrange for you and Zhao Li to transfer to the Imperial Military Academy in the capital. You can get married after you graduate, and I'll arrange your military rank then."

"what?"

Jiang Lang was stunned; this was a tricky problem.

With such a promising future laid out before you, how can you refuse without seeming abrupt?
