A few jars of over twenty year old zhuyeqing* are already arranged on the table.

Zhao Jiangui still puts in maximum effort to decline, "I won't drink, I really can't drink."

Ji Han replies with the question, "You're afraid after you drink you'll act drunkenly?"

Zhao Jiangui rambles, "I... If I drink, I'll kill people!"

Ji Han stares, actually can't help feeling like Zhao Jiangui's actions are extremely interesting.

"Don't worry." Ji Han says, "Killing me isn't that easy."

Zhao Jiangui, "But..."

Ji Han has already opened the seal on a jar of liquor.

The mellow and rich fragrance of the liquor already instantly permeates the area.

Merely smelling the fragrance of the liquor, Zhao Jiangui already feels like he's starting to get dizzy.

Ji Han continues, "Don't worry. You don't have to drink, I won't bully you at all."

Zhao Jiangui, "..."

Ji Han, "You have one cup, I'll have three cups."

Zhao Jiangui, "..."

With this forceful method, Zhao Jiangui's heart has unavoidably suffered somewhat of a setback.

But Ji Han is extremely proud of himself.

He doesn't know why, but looking at Zhao Jiangui's suffering appearance, his heart is unable to suppress a strange sense of satisfaction, this feeling, it's finally almost stronger to some extent than the pleasure of progressing in swordsmans.h.i.+p.

Zhao Jiangui opens his mouth, "That's no good."

Ji Han is delighted, "Then how many cups do you want me to force you to have?"

"I don't like other people forcing me." Zhao Jiangui says each word of the sentence, "You have one cup, I have one cup."

Ji Han, "..."

...

Ji Han is displeased.

In his heart that strange sense of satisfaction had not persisted long, already smashed just by Zhao Jiangui's one sentence, how can he be happy about this?

Ji Han always thought his alcohol tolerance extremely high, sometimes at a feast in the sect, he alone could drink and keep the law, still only showing six or seven points of being drunk.

Zhao Jiangui actually wants a fair contest with him?

He doesn't know his limits.

Ji Han laughs grimly.

Watch how I get you drunk!

I hope you all had/are having a great Halloween! (It's my birthday and I wanted to be a couple of chapters further in, but sadly it did not happen. I apologize.)
