Outside the box, Zachary Cheng was holding a mobile phone in his right hand and talking to Michael Shen on the phone, while his left ear was hit by the demonic sound coming from the box next door.

It seems that the song is still "My Good Brother".

Serena Shen spoke very softly, and he didn't hear it very clearly, but he vaguely felt like she was talking about him.

He glanced at her and asked, "What did you just say about me?"

"Nothing." Serena Shen leaned against the wall and looked down at her toes.

This girl with top-notch cold white skin can be said to have extremely attractive skin condition after drinking, which makes people deeply understand what it means to have white and rosy skin.

In addition, her eyes were slightly drooped at the moment, and she didn't know what she was thinking. Zachary Cheng looked at her side face and inexplicably felt that she seemed to have a little girl's emotions at the moment?

On the phone, Michael Shen still looked like he trusted Zachary Cheng very much and said, "That's all right, Ning Ning, I'll leave it to you!"

"Don't worry!" Zachary Cheng repeated.

"OK, I'm ready to go out. Tell Ning Ning that your eldest cousin has returned to Hangzhou. I will have supper with him later. If you want to come later, you can come together, cousin. ." Michael Shen said.

"OK."

Just like that, the phone was hung up over there.

Serena Shen put her hands behind her back, placed them on her waist and hips, and then half-leaned against the wall in this posture, with her palms against the wall.

She raised her head slightly to look at Zachary Cheng and asked, "What did he just say?"

"He said that your eldest cousin has returned to Hangzhou, and he will go to have supper with your eldest cousin later. He said that if we finish early, we can go there to eat together." Zachary Cheng conveyed.

Didn't he agree with Serena Shen before that he would leave early because he was afraid of getting drunk today.

As for whether he was going to have supper with Michael Shen or not, he didn't care. Anyway, he hadn't seen his cheap cousin for a long time.

When Serena Shen heard this, she just nodded slightly.

"Let's go in." Zachary Cheng said.

In the box, these young people were already a little drunk.

Many people drink. They don't drink at first. I can't do it anymore, so I can do whatever I can.

But once you drink a certain amount and get yourself high, you will start to transform, and you will even beg for alcohol.

This is also why in some drinking establishments, when everyone drinks too much, they don’t know how to restrain themselves and drink violently.

Like today, these people either brought their girlfriends or the girls they were chasing.

After a few glasses of wine and playing table games, the girls' emotions will be aroused, and the atmosphere will naturally be better.

Seeing that Zachary Cheng and Serena Shen came back from the phone call, everyone started playing the second round of [Miss Card].

This game may have different ways of playing in different places, and the meaning of each card may be different, but the general routine is the same.

The way they are playing now is that if you draw 2 cards, they are the miss cards. When anyone is punished with a drink, they can shout "Mihuang Euzi" and you have to say a toast, such as "Drink well, uncle" and so on.

If you forget to say it, you have to drink double the amount.

There is also the 8 card, which is the toilet card. If there is no such card, if you want to go to the toilet during the game, you will be told that it is not allowed. Either hold it in, or be punished with a large glass of wine.

In this game, Zachary Cheng's favorite card is commonly known as "Psycho".

After drawing this card, no one can reply to his words. Once someone talks to him, that person will drink.

He likes this card so much because it has so many dirty tricks.

Boy, he got what he wanted.

"Hey! I've got a mental illness!" Zachary Cheng grinned.

Then, he whispered to Serena Shen: "After this round of the game is over, we will retreat first."

"Okay." Serena Shen replied softly.

Immediately afterwards, he saw Zachary Cheng pouring wine for her, smiling and gesturing for her to drink it.

Serena Shen: ""

Next, she watched helplessly as Zachary Cheng acted like a monster in the audience.

Some people are very deliberate when looking for someone to talk to after taking this card. This is useless, and most people will not be fooled at all.

Zachary Cheng is not the same. He will choose to use some very natural modes, even very dirty modes.

For example, Dong Dong is his key target, and he can be fooled three times in five minutes.

At first, he said to Dong Dong: "Dong Dong, help me get some pieces of paper."

"Okay, here you go."

"drink!"

Dong Dong: ""

Later, Zachary Cheng was really mad.

He watched Dong Dong lose in the mini-game "Visit Three Gardens". After a while, he suddenly stood up and asked him seriously: "Did you not drink the glass of wine you owed for the game just now?"

"What, Brother Cheng! I drank!" Dong Dong picked up his wine glass, feeling insulted.

"You drink." Zachary Cheng said.

"What are you drinking?" Dong Dong was puzzled.

"You've spoken to me twice now." Zachary Cheng said matter-of-factly.

Mr. Dong: ""

Damn it! This man deserves to die!

Then, when he was punished with a drink, he turned around and went to Liu Feng, who had taken the lady card, to drink with him.

Serena Shen just watched Zachary Cheng behaving like a human being, feeling a bit dumbfounded.

But it just so happened that she had bad luck with cards this whole round. She always had to drink, and it was the kind of compulsory card that did not require playing games but drinking.

For example, if you draw the card 9, you have to drink by yourself.

Only halfway through the deck of cards, she felt a little drunk.

This caused Zachary Cheng to go to the back and he was a little reluctant to cheat her, so he even helped her get a drink instead.

After the whole round of the game was over, he was ready to take Serena Shen away.

"What about that? Let's withdraw first. You guys can continue playing for a while." Zachary Cheng stood up and said.

"Stop, Brother Cheng! Let's play some more!" Dong Dong refused to let him go.

He is only thinking about drawing cards in the next round. I must draw "Crazy" and then cheat him!

He didn't even think about it. With his brain, could Zachary Cheng be fooled?

"Serena Shen and I both have things to do tomorrow, so you can play for a while." Zachary Cheng was too lazy to pay attention to him.

He took a look and saw that there was enough wine in the box for them to drink, so he didn't add any more wine.

With the amount of alcohol these young people have, no matter how much they drink, something could easily happen.

After all, Zachary Cheng's status was different, so after everyone tried to persuade him, they didn't dare to stop him.

If Dong Dong wants to run away now, a lot of people will definitely start shouting: "Can't he drink? Can't he drink?"

After walking out of the box, Serena Shen took out a breath and said to Zachary Cheng, "Then I'll go to the bathroom first."

There was someone in the bathroom in the box, probably vomiting, so Serena Shen chose to go to the bathroom outside.

"Okay, I'll wash my face too." Zachary Cheng said.

In fact, he just felt that Serena Shen had drank a lot and it was better to stay outside.

Zachary Cheng took out his phone and checked the time. It was only ten forty.

"It's still early," he thought to himself.

In the bathroom, Serena Shen stood in front of the mirror, washing her hands and looking up in the mirror.

She took a look at the clothes she was wearing today, and indeed she accidentally wore the same outfit she wore when the evening breeze blew that day.

And just like last time, I felt a little too drunk.


"It's just that I was the only one who drank last time, and he drank a lot today too." She thought to herself.

At this moment, she looked at her face in the mirror and felt that her face was quite red.

After wiping the water on her hands with a paper towel, she gently patted her cheeks with her cold hands, which were still quite hot.

If they follow the rhythm of that night, the two of them will take a battery car together and then go to Youlai to play.

But that is certainly not possible today.

Zachary Cheng himself drank a lot, and he came by taxi.

As for [You Lai Wan], this store is already being transferred, and it will probably be sold soon.

After walking out of the bathroom, Serena Shen saw Zachary Cheng who was smoking and pinched the cigarette in his hand.

"Let's go," he said.

The two of them walked side by side slowly toward the elevator.

Serena Shen's car was parked on the second underground floor. After entering the elevator, Zachary Cheng asked, "Are you going to find your brother and your eldest cousin?"

"No, I won't go after drinking today." Serena Shen replied.

"What's wrong? What does it have to do with drinking?"

"You've never met my eldest cousin. He's actually a nice guy, but he's very wordy." Serena Shen recalled.

She seemed to have remembered something interesting, and a faint smile appeared on her face. Of course, it might be that she became a little more lively after drinking.

"Let me tell you, in fact, whether it's me, my brother, or John, we all deliberately ignore him sometimes."

"It's the same even in group chats."

"Because once we talk to him, he is too talkative and can't stop talking. Sometimes when the conversation gets more exciting, he will ask us to join him in a group chat."

Zachary Cheng smiled: "That's right."

He guessed that this eldest cousin was the oldest among these people, and he would probably chatter a bit when he saw Serena Shen drinking.

"But I'm a little hungry." Zachary Cheng didn't eat any staple food at night, and he was used to eating something after drinking, so that he wouldn't feel uncomfortable the next day.

"I have the bread I just bought this afternoon in the car, is that okay?" Serena Shen asked.

She wouldn't eat late night snacks anyway.

"Okay, just have something simple." Zachary Cheng nodded.

After arriving at the parking lot, the two quickly found Serena Shen's Range Rover.

Serena Shen sat in the back seat. Since she would need to call a driver later, she thought she would sit in the back instead of the co-pilot.

Zachary Cheng opened the door on the other side and sat in the back row naturally.

The space inside the car is only that big, and the two of them are just in a small space.

In fact, because the car was not started, there was no air circulation.

For some reason, Serena Shen felt her cheeks getting hotter, as if they both could feel each other's breath.

"Well, here's the bread for you. I'm going to start the car." Serena Shen handed him the bag containing the bread and prepared to get out of the car.

"I'll go." Zachary Cheng was sitting behind the driver's seat, so it was more convenient for him to go.

And after he started the car, he naturally sat back in the back seat.

Serena Shen's mobile phone automatically connected to the car via Bluetooth, and then music started playing automatically in the car.

The song sounded, and it was Jay Chou's "The Longest Movie."

"It can't be such a coincidence, right?" After Zachary Cheng took a bite of bread, he looked at Serena Shen who was actually very close to him in surprise, but there was a hint of amusement in his eyes.

"Uh." After drinking, she didn't know what to say.

"You didn't hear me singing beautifully in the KTV, so you secretly downloaded this song while you were sitting next to me, right?" Zachary Cheng smiled.

"I originally had this song in my playlist, but I didn't download it after I changed my phone. I just heard it and downloaded it." Serena Shen replied.

This is tantamount to a disguised admission.

At this moment, Zachary Cheng felt some strange emotions in his heart.

This is equivalent to you casually singing a favorite song at a KTV, and the girl sitting next to you listened to it carefully. After listening, she picked up her phone and downloaded the song immediately in the box.

It's a very small thing, but at the stage of emotional ambiguity, it's quite poignant.

"I can sing pretty well, right?" he asked.

After saying that, he hummed along with the music in the car.

"Yes, it's okay." She replied.

"What do you mean it's OK? Even if Jay Chou comes here, he may not be able to beat him!" he said coaxingly.

"Have you ever been to his concert?" Serena Shen asked.

She chose to change the subject instead of answering Zachary Cheng's stinky words.

In his previous life, Zachary Cheng was a frequent visitor to various celebrity concerts, and he usually took his younger sister there.

He has been to Jay Chou's concerts three times in total, with different girls.

Speaking of which, taking a girl to a music festival or concert is a good way.

He personally prefers the latter, because the music festival is actually quite tiring.

Taking girls to a concert has a good atmosphere and sometimes creates a sense of romance.

This kind of place can also meet girls’ photography needs.

If the ticket you buy is in a good enough location, posting it on WeChat Moments can satisfy a little vanity.

Of course, like Zachary Cheng in his previous life, he definitely didn't want to show his face in other people's circles of friends.

Nor will they let others show their faces in their circle of friends.

For people like him: It’s okay to swear, but not to post on Moments.

But later on, tickets to the concerts of some popular singers were simply not available, and scalper tickets were extremely expensive, making the cost actually very high.

Two tickets plus travel expenses and hotel are not a small expense.

But he’s not short of money anyway, and he quite likes going to concerts.

But in this life, he has never been to any singer's concert, so he said: "I have never been to his concert."

"Neither did I. I wanted to go during the summer vacation one year, but I couldn't go because of some things." Serena Shen said.

"Otherwise, you can help me settle the small door of the milk tea shop. When Jay Chou starts his tour, I'll treat you to a Jay Chou concert! This promise is valid for a long time!"

"What do you mean? Bribing me?" Serena Shen turned around and asked.

"Yes." Zachary Cheng turned around, stared directly at her, and met her eyes: "I'm just bribing you, won't you?"
