Everyone was obviously unprepared for Zhou Huiyi's sudden arrival, and the lively wine table seemed like a quiet scene.
Finally, the fat man walked over, swaying under the influence of alcohol, and said, "Hui Yi, come in, it's so cold outside."
Feichen stood guard at the door like a little guard, and then moved back a little.
Zhou Huiyi entered the room, her cheeks were flushed due to the cold air, her hair was messed up by the wind, and a few strands fell on her eyelids.
She looked at the man sitting at the banquet. He had not spoken. She hesitated and did not dare to step forward, staring at his face anxiously.
After all, they were comrades who crawled out of the same trench and fought together for so many years. The relationship between them could no longer be expressed as deep.
In order to break the awkward atmosphere, Xu Chuanyang and Ye Hanxuan greeted her to sit down with a smile, "If you don't come over, the fat man will drink all the wine and eat all the meat."
"Who said the meat is gone and will this be enough?" Mother Lu came out with a large plate full of big bones in sauce. Luo Xi followed behind and reminded her carefully, "Mom, slow down."
She raised her head, her eyes collided with Zhou Huiyi's through the bright light, and her steps paused.
When Mother Lu saw a guest, she hurriedly said, "Girl, come over and eat. Don't stand there blowing the wind."
"Auntie has already spoken, why don't you come here quickly?"
Zhou Huiyi saw the identity of Mother Lu, and when she heard what she said, she walked over without looking at Lu Sheng's face.
The fat man hurriedly gave up his seat next to her and got her chopsticks and a wine glass.
"Come on, come on, everyone, keep drinking."
As if to ease the awkward atmosphere, several people immediately started changing glasses. Zhou Huiyi drank a few glasses of wine and her face turned red. She looked at Lu Sheng opposite. He had not said a word since just now. At this time,
He lowered his head and ate in silence.
After Luo Xi finished helping Lu's mother, she washed her hands and sat down. As soon as she sat down, there was a big bone in sauce on the plate, "This is my mother's specialty dish. I loved it when I was a child, but my family was poor at that time."
, my father passed away early and couldn’t afford to eat. Every New Year, Village Chief Hao would always send a few bones over, and my mother would make this kind of sauced bones for me, and I would gnaw them clean every time.
Even the bone marrow inside is not spared. Village Chief Hao often makes fun of me, 'Ah Sheng, don't chew it so cleanly, leave some for the dog.'"
Luo Xi burst out laughing, her crescent-shaped eyes shining like diamonds under the light, "I didn't even know you liked eating this."
"It's different now. I've long been tired of eating delicacies from mountains and seas. Only my mother's craftsmanship is the most nostalgic. You can try it."
Luo Xi took a small bite and felt the fragrance linger on her lips and teeth. Compared with those big restaurants, this dish tasted more like home. "It's delicious."
He smiled and said, "I'll crush the bone marrow for you later. It'll be so delicious."
"Yeah." She lowered her head and continued to chew the bones, while he kept telling her interesting stories about her childhood, which made her cover her mouth and laugh from time to time. The two of them talked and laughed in their own little world. Regarding Zhou Huiyi's sudden appearance,
He didn't seem to care at all.
"Hui Yi, drink and drink."
Zhou Huiyi drank several drinks in a row, and kept looking towards the opposite side intentionally or unintentionally. Their heads came together and murmured, as if they said something interesting. They looked at each other and smiled from time to time. The smile was reflected in her eyes by the light,
Immediately, it was like several steel thorns piercing in. Zhou Huiyi clenched the cup in her hand, raised her head, and drank.
"Good drinker." The fat man applauded, clapping his hands.
She saluted in a circle, and finally stood up and raised her glass to Lu Sheng, "Captain, I salute you."
Luo Xi frowned slightly and turned to look at Lu Sheng, only to see him picking up the food casually and refusing coldly and directly, "I don't drink."
Zhou Huiyi's face became even more rosy due to drinking. She smiled brightly and said, "It doesn't matter, you can do whatever you want, I'll do it."
Although the cup she used was a small cup, it was still enough. She drank all the white wine in one go, lowered the glass, and not a drop of wine was left.
When the fat man saw her, he immediately tugged on her arm and said, "Hui Yi, the captain has just recovered from a serious illness and cannot drink. Come, I will drink with you."
"I know he can't drink. This is of my own free will."
Zhou Huiyi poured another full cup and stared at Lu Sheng with her bright eyes, "This cup is an apology to the captain."
In the blink of an eye, the strong drink rolled down my throat again.
She poured a third cup, but this time she looked at Luo Xi, "This cup is to apologize to Luo Xi."
Luo Xi watched her raise her neck boldly, her drinking gesture was exactly the same as her usual style.
Within a moment, Zhou Huiyi had already drank a pound of liquor, and she still had no intention of stopping. She raised her cup again and said, "I did something wrong this time. I know you are all blaming me, so I want to express my gratitude to you."
Everyone apologizes, and I will drink three more glasses in a row."
She reached for the wine bottle, and Lu Sheng suddenly said in a deep voice: "That's enough."
"not enough."
Lu Sheng put down his chopsticks, his eyes dimmed slightly, and his voice was not loud but full of shock, "I said enough."
Zhou Huiyi finally retracted her hand that had been placed on the bottle. She looked at Lu Sheng and burst into tears, "I know you are angry with me, but I just don't want to watch you die. I'm wrong."
No, I just ask you to forgive me, this kind of thing will not happen again, please give me another chance."
She spoke so pitifully that she burst into tears.
"Captain, please forgive Hui Yi this time." Fatty followed and begged.
Xu Chuanyang and Ye Hanxuan couldn't bear to see Zhou Huiyi abusing herself like this, "Captain, Huiyi means well after all. Now that she knows she was wrong, please forgive her."
Lu Sheng remained silent, his face condensed, and everyone looked at Luo Xi.
Surrounded by those scorching gazes, Luo Xi had to put down the chopsticks in her hands. She didn't have a close relationship with the people in the Ghost Army, and their relationship couldn't be compared with Zhou Huiyi and the others. Although she hated her, she was still
She indirectly saved Lu Sheng once. Although her intention was to keep her in Japan forever, by some strange combination of circumstances, her plan came to nothing. She had no good impression of this woman from the beginning.
She was Lu Sheng's comrade-in-arms, and she had gone through fire and water for Lu Sheng. This time, Lu Sheng seemed to be determined not to pay attention to her. She didn't want to interfere in their affairs, but the eyes of these people looking at her were obviously begging, for the sake of
Ghost Soldiers, for the sake of their comradeship and for Lu Sheng to no longer have a difficult time, she finally said against her will: "I accept your apology."
Lu Sheng looked at her with complicated eyes.
Zhou Huiyi cried with joy, "Luo Xi, I'm so sorry, I thought you wouldn't forgive me."
"Don't get me wrong, it's because of Lu Sheng that I forgive you." She wiped her hands with a tissue, "I'm going to stay with the child, you continue."
Before leaving, he warned, "No drinking allowed."
