Chapter 54
The first embroidery was to honor Fane's contribution in defending the country. The second is a blessing for Fane and Selena. That excuse made Fane unable to refuse to toast.
Not to mention, the man was old. If Fane were to reject his offer, he would clearly appear to be being disrespectful.
Therefore, all Fane could do was smile and accept the glass given to him.
It was just that Fane did not expect that even after three toasts, the man in front of him still did not leave as the other man came over carrying more alcoholic beverages.
Fane frowned when he started to think it was very strange. This person usually looked down on him. Now they all take her out for a drink together?
Therefore, this was very unnatural and it was obvious that they were trying to get him drunk. However, no matter how much they tried to prank her, she never took heart over their attitude.
The five years he had spent in such terrible conditions on the battlefield made his body extremely fit. Now that he was in a very strange meeting, there was no way this fellow could really get him drunk.
After that, more people continued to come to him. Fane smiled at them politely, then chatted lightly before finally drinking all the alcohol in his glass. He looks very impressive.
After drinking seven to eight glasses of red wine, Selena who was watching from the side started to look a little panicked. After Fane sat down again, he instinctively pulled on Fane's shirt gently.
"Do you not know how to refuse? It's okay to drink just a little. You drink so much so fast. What would you do if you were drunk?"
Selena lowered her voice and reminded Fane in a gentle tone. Fane's heart immediately felt warm after hearing his words. He never thought that Selena would love him so much.
A wife like that would be hard to find. To save her pride, Fane deliberately spoke in a softer tone so that no one else could hear her.
"Don't worry, my tolerance for alcohol is pretty good. Besides, you could see that basically everyone who came was elders. Their reasons will even make you unable to resist them. Actually they're pretty good for not taking you out for a drink with them!"
Fane also lowered his voice and replied in a soft tone, he placed his hand on his own mouth.
"This is red wine. Even though it tastes good, drinking it that fast can have tremendous consequences. You'll get drunk easily so be careful!"
If Fane deliberately rejected one of them, the elders would say that Fane looked down on them and that would be quite a complicated thing to deal with later.
The only problem was how could he not worry about the way Fane drank?
Ivan smiled broadly as he walked up to Fane with a glass of red wine in his hand.
Fane looked at him, then frowned and said, "Young Master Ivan, don't tell me you also want to drink with me? It just so happened that I broke your arm!"
Ivan's mouth shook violently when he heard Fane's words. However, he controlled his emotions and said with a smile,
"Heheh, it's all a misunderstanding. I was actually playing around with Kylie back then. I didn't expect you to misinterpret it!"
After she finished explaining, Ivan added, "Whatever happens, Selena is still my cousin and you should call me cousin too. Although I feel you are incapable of anything, but it is not easy to survive through the battlefield and be able to return. Therefore, let me toast to you!"
After saying so, Ivan immediately downed his glass to dry. He then said, "Fane, you're not going to deny this honor, are you?" "Heheh, you're so nice. It is my honor that Young Master Ivan would toast me. So, it doesn't matter if I do!"
Fane chuckled and immediately downed the red wine in his glass.
"Huhahah. Goody! Now we'll talk! I like to hang out with all kinds of people. What do you think if we drink three glasses?"
One of Ivan's hands was still clad in a cast, but he still deftly picked up a bottle of red wine and poured it into two empty glasses.
"It's not a good idea because your injury has not fully recovered. Young Master Ivan, you better not drink that much!"
Fane pretended to be drunk as he slowly shook his head and advised Ivan.
Seriate......
Thank you
