Chapter 21: You’re Lusting After Someone’s Eyes, How Shameless

Food Comes First.

It was a hot pot restaurant. Its main selling point was that all the ingredients were fresh. The meat and vegetables were delivered on the same day, so the prices were much higher than at normal hot pot restaurants.

Luckily, after Maple Internet Café was promoted around Qingnan University as a sponsor, it became quite well-known in the nearby college district. Business was booming every day.

So Boss Chen generously waved his hand and treated the whole team to dinner.

"Order whatever you want!"

He was incredibly generous.

Only then did Lin Wan have the courage to walk into this restaurant, which looked expensive just from its decoration.

After they entered, Zhuo Feng casually suggested how everyone should sit.

The top laner sat with the jungler.

The mid laner sat with the coach.

The ADC sat with the support.

After learning that Lin Wan could not eat food that was too spicy, everyone agreed to order a divided hot pot with one spicy side and one mild side.

Then Chen Jie waved his hand and said, "Order whatever you like!"

Lin Wan ordered a plate of lotus root slices. They were crunchy and slightly sweet, and he liked them very much. Well... the main reason was that everything else was too expensive, and he felt embarrassed to order them.

The others were much less careful. They pointed at the meat section on the menu.

"This one, this one, and this one. Skip that one. Bring one serving of everything else, and four plates each of beef and lamb."

Watching them order like that, Lin Wan quickly did the math in his head.

Good grief... this had to be at least 1,500 yuan already! Even though it wasn't his money, why did his heart still ache a little?

Everyone on Team RSNDM except Lin Wan was a tall, strong young man. They could all eat huge amounts of food, especially Yu Sen. He weighed almost as much as two and a half Lin Wans put together, and he could easily eat enough for five people.

Lin Wan looked at the tall stack of empty plates in front of Yu Sen, then looked at his stomach.

Seriously... how could he fit all that food inside? It was like a bottomless pit! Although Lin Wan's appetite had also grown recently, it was nowhere close to Yu Sen's. He couldn't help wondering what kind of family could afford to feed him.

In the end, everyone finally put down their chopsticks only after Chen Jie's calm smile had turned into a forced one.

When it was time to pay, Lin Wan noticed that Chen Jie's hand was shaking a little. He had expected his teammates to eat a lot, but he had never imagined they could eat this much.

They had also ordered some beer.

Although alcohol could slow down a person's reactions and affect game performance, they weren't professional players, so having a few drinks wasn't a big deal.

Because of his illness, Lin Wan naturally didn't drink at all.

His teammates, however, drank quite a bit.

What surprised everyone was that Zhuo Feng had an unbelievably low alcohol tolerance.

After drinking only a little more than one bottle, his face turned red, his legs became weak, and he started swaying from side to side.

Ding Hanwei and Yu Sen had to catch a train, and Chen Jie wasn't going back to school.

So after calling a ride, Lin Wan and Han Jinsong had no choice but to support Zhuo Feng as they waited by the roadside.

Zhuo Feng had a big build, and now that he was drunk, he wasn't helping at all. He felt as heavy as a sack of rocks, and the two of them could barely hold him up.

Lin Wan was shorter, so most of Zhuo Feng's weight kept leaning onto him. He almost felt like he was being pushed a few centimeters shorter.

When they reached the roadside, Lin Wan was carrying a plastic bag. If Zhuo Feng threw up after the cold wind hit him, at least they would have something to catch it.

Cars sped past on the road, and the cool wind they created made Lin Wan's ears turn slightly red.

Zhuo Feng leaned his head toward Lin Wan and opened his eyes just a tiny bit, secretly looking at Lin Wan's eyes.

His eyelashes were long, and the corners of his eyes had a soft, rounded shape instead of the narrow look most people had. His pupils were dark and bright, making him look both innocent and adorable.

Zhuo Feng's eyes slowly opened wider.

There wasn't even a trace of drunkenness left in them.

But the moment Lin Wan turned to look at him, Zhuo Feng quickly shut his eyes again.

Seeing that Zhuo Feng showed no signs of throwing up, Lin Wan lifted his arm higher onto his shoulder so he wouldn't slip off and fall to the ground.

When their ride arrived, Lin Wan and Han Jinsong struggled to help Zhuo Feng into the back seat of the car.

The driver looked at the situation and became a little nervous.

"Please don't let him throw up in my car!"

Lin Wan hung the plastic bag over Zhuo Feng's face like a giant mask and smiled awkwardly.

"Don't worry, sir. This way, nothing can go wrong!"

The two of them sat with Zhuo Feng in the middle, each holding one of his arms so he wouldn't fall over.

From a distance, it looked like Zhuo Feng had both arms spread open, hugging one person on each side.

Han Jinsong was worried that Zhuo Feng would crush Lin Wan, so he deliberately rested Zhuo Feng's head on his own shoulder.

But when the car went around a bend, Zhuo Feng's head naturally rolled over and ended up resting on Lin Wan's shoulder. The plastic bag also slipped off.

Feeling the extra weight on his shoulder, the warm breath on his neck, and the faint smell of alcohol, Lin Wan frowned and moved away a little.

He picked up the plastic bag and put it back over Zhuo Feng's face.

Good grief, he absolutely couldn't let Zhuo Feng throw up on him!

Breathing in the clean scent of laundry detergent mixed with a light milky smell from Lin Wan's clothes, Zhuo Feng slowly became sleepy.

Before he knew it, he had actually fallen asleep.

Luckily, the ride was short, and they soon arrived at the school gate.

Lin Wan raised his hand and lightly patted Zhuo Feng's face a few times.

"Hey, Zhuo Feng. Wake up. We're at school."

This guy's head was as heavy as the pig heads used for New Year's offerings in the past. It weighed a ton! His shoulder was almost numb from carrying it. Now that they had reached school, he was finally free.

"Mm... yeah..."

Zhuo Feng answered in a sleepy mumble.

The two of them helped Zhuo Feng out of the car.

Han Jinsong thought for a moment and pointed toward the security booth.

"I'll ask the security guard to help us carry him back to the dorm. There's no way the two of us can get him all the way up to the fifth floor by ourselves."

The other two roommates had left right after finishing their exams that day. They had even brought their luggage with them to the exam, or they wouldn't have needed to ask someone else for help.

"Okay."

They let Zhuo Feng lean against the wall, and Han Jinsong hurried toward the security booth.

After Han Jinsong had walked some distance away, Zhuo Feng slowly stood up and rubbed his temples.

"We're back at school?"

Lin Wan was still holding one of Zhuo Feng's arms, afraid that if he wasn't careful, Zhuo Feng would suddenly fall headfirst and seriously hurt himself.

"Yeah, we're back. How are you feeling?"

Zhuo Feng rubbed his face with both hands.

"Better."

"If you can't handle alcohol, don't drink that much again. Luckily, you were having dinner with us today. If you ever get drunk while you're with strangers, what are you going to do then?"

"Okay!"

Zhuo Feng held back the smile trying to appear on his lips, but the happiness still showed in his eyes.

Not long after, Han Jinsong came back. Seeing Zhuo Feng already standing, he scratched his head, unable to understand how he had sobered up so quickly.

"Can you walk?"

"Yeah."

"Alright!"

He ran back to tell the security guard that they no longer needed help.

After returning to the dorm and washing up, Zhuo Feng lay on his bed.

He stared at the top of his mosquito net with bright, wide-open eyes.

Thinking back on everything that had happened today, he couldn't stop grinning to himself, though he didn't dare laugh out loud.

But after smiling for a while, his expression slowly became serious again.

As the saying goes, ‘A man who is three parts drunk can put on such a good act that his future wife will cry.’

Zhuo Feng... Zhuo Feng.

You actually took advantage of Lin Wan's friendship by pretending to be drunk!

Aren't you ashamed of yourself?
