Chapter 523 He had too much to drink, I sent him home ~

estioned her in a harsh voice.Upon seeing Yu Chennan, Luo Zhiqin's body tensed involuntarily.Since the breakup, this was their first time meeting.Why was he immediately defending Lon Ningxi!“I don't,...Facing the elder's hospitality, Li Bochen merely shrugged and nonchalantly said, "I've been rather busy lately. When you celebrate your birthday next year, I'll definitely let you hold a grandson."

The old man's eyebrows shot up in surprise, "That'd be great then. If you back out next year, you'll answer to me!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the somewhat awkward atmosphere instantly eased considerably.

Mu Xi Yin, who was sitting beside him, blushed and immediately stood up to toast.

She smiled and was about to speak, but Jian Yining, who was sitting on the other side, moved faster and cut her off.

"Today is your old man's birthday, I raise a glass to you, wishing you good fortune like the East Sea and good health."

Mu Xiyin's smile froze instantly.

Looking into Jian Yi Ning's eyes, there was a hint of coldness.

But she quickly adjusted her expression and followed up with a few well wishes.

"Okay, okay."

Mr. Li nodded in satisfaction and turned his gaze to Mu Qinshan beside him, praising without reservation, "These two children are really a perfect match. YinYin is a good girl. If I had such an obedient and sensible daughter, it would be great."

"The fact that Little Audio can make grandpa happy is truly her good fortune." Mu Qin Shan, Mu Xi Yin's father, smiled and took a sip of wine to mask his previous awkwardness.

Today, at his birthday banquet, he sat beside Old Master Li. Such an arrangement meant something, and everyone present knew it well.

Mr. Li nodded, "In the future, Yin Yin will be able to stay by my side forever. It's also a blessing for this old man."

"Mr. Li and Fourth Young Master, I'm just glad you're not bothered by my trouble."

Mu Xi Yin's cheeks flushed, she naturally understood Elder Li's implication and shyly looked at Li Bo Chen.

"It's obvious this is a hassle, yet you still ask us to help without complaint. Miss Mu, you truly know how to talk."

Li Bochen's expression was playful, like a bucket of cold water poured onto Mu Xiyin's head, instantly extinguishing the hope in her heart.

She clenched her fists in frustration, her eyes darkening.

Across from them, Jian Yining had always been paying attention to Li Botong and Mu Xi Yin. Seeing Li Botong's reaction, she was in a good mood.

"How could this be, YinYin is such a well-behaved and sensible girl. It's impossible to find such a good girl even with a lantern." Old Master Li glared at Li Boche, "Fourth child, don't you think so"

Li Bocen drained the wine from his glass and said, "If you like it, then I don't mind."

Mu Xiyin looked at Li Bocen's perfunctory attitude, a hint of gloom flashed in her eyes. Suddenly, she saw Old Master Li winking at her, and then a servant brought over a pitcher of freshly squeezed juice.

Mu Xi Yin immediately took the juice and pushed it in front of Li Bo Chen.

"Si Shao, drinking is bad for your stomach. This freshly squeezed juice is good, you should try it."

Li Bocen ignored him, saying indifferently, "No need, I'm not interested."

Jane Ning chuckled, "Mu Xiyin, it seems you still don't understand the fourth brother. He doesn't like drinking those sweet things."

Mu Xiyin glanced at Jian Yining, smiling gently, "People's tastes change, Second Sister-in-law, don't they"

As soon as she heard the words "a word, second sister-in-law," Jian Yining's hand holding the cup clenched tightly.

"Drip drip —"

Li Bichen's phone suddenly rang.

Li Bohan took out his phone and glanced at the caller ID displaying "Luo Ningxi" three characters. He didn't hang up, but directly turned off his phone.

"Is there something urgent"

Muxi's voice was gentle and soft as she spoke, giving up on the juice and pouring him a glass of wine instead.

And Li Bochen was irritated because of those phone calls. He took a gulp of red wine and said, "Nothing much, just some trivial matters."

Seeing Li Bochen drink the wine, Mu Xiyin's heart beat frantically against her chest, a hint of triumph flashing in her eyes. Li Bochen, wait until you become my man. Master Li will naturally make you responsible for me. Then...

Mr. Li, the elderly gentleman, was very pleased to see this scene between the two of them.

Come everyone, have dinner. It's a family feast tonight, so please relax.

After three rounds of drinking, it wasn't long before Li Bochen suddenly felt a dizziness in his head and reached out to support his forehead.

He didn't drink much today, let alone get drunk, but what was wrong with him now

But Mu Xi Yin noticed Li Bo Chen's abnormality, and hurriedly reached out to support him; "Fourth Young Master, are you alright"

"Let go!" Li Bichen's voice was cold and hard, but the moment Mu Xiyin leaned closer, the dizziness and discomfort she felt inexplicably eased.

In that moment of stunned silence, Mu Xiyin had already come closer, leaning against him and addressing Old Master Li, "Uncle Li, Young Master Si seems to have had a bit too much. I'll take him back."engnan, to actually conspire with that despicable person against me!"Luo Zhiqin thought the more she thought about it, the angrier she became, so angry that her stomach ached!"Alright, let's just forg...
