Chapter 514: Chapter 514: Who is Xiang Yu, Who is Liu Bang?
Han Jingting smiled, "This is my husband, Chen Xuan!"
As soon as these words came out, the scene fell dead silent.
Cao Yan and the others looked at each other in disbelief.
Brother Can was still thinking about flirting with girls, yet here she was, bringing her own husband along. How fucking awkward!
When Fucha Rongcan heard Han Jingting’s response, fury surged in his heart as he looked towards Liang Xuan at his side.
Liang Xuan, feeling the reproach in Fucha Rongcan’s eyes, could only give an awkward smile, hinting that she was also helpless.
These events all took place in an instant.
After all, Fucha Rongcan was a seasoned player used to the high society; hitting on a girlfriend in front of her boyfriend was not something he hadn’t done before.
Moreover, Fucha Rongcan had long since heard that Han Jingting’s husband was a live-in son-in-law, a notorious good-for-nothing in Huai City.
Thinking this, Fucha Rongcan no longer took the situation at hand seriously.
You brought your husband on purpose, didn’t you?
Well then, today I’m going to let you see that compared to me, your worthless husband is nothing!
"Miss Han, since you’re here, please take a seat quickly!"
Fucha Rongcan didn’t even glance at Chen Xuan, treating him as if he were invisible.
Chen Xuan hadn’t understood why Han Jingting insisted on bringing him to this dinner, but now he had completely grasped the situation.
Clearly, Young Master Fucha harbored ulterior motives for Han Jingting, and since she owed him a favor and found it difficult to refuse, she brought Chen Xuan as a shield!
Upon realizing this, Chen Xuan felt quite relieved.
At least now, Han Jingting regarded him wholly as her husband, and she considered his feelings in everything!
However, if this Young Master Fucha dared to covet her despite knowing Han Jingting was already married, then that was truly despicable!
Chen Xuan was still not fully aware of the situation and hence didn’t say much, simply following Han Jingting to take a seat.
However, before Chen Xuan could follow her, Liang Xuan stopped him.
"Young Master Fucha and Jingting have something to discuss when sitting together. What are you following for?"
"Your place is over here!"
With impatience in her voice, Liang Xuan pointed to the position next to her, signaling Chen Xuan to sit down.
From beginning to end, Liang Xuan only saw Chen Xuan as a good-for-nothing living off a woman, so she didn’t regard him seriously and spoke without any courtesy.
Chen Xuan’s gaze hardened.
He had previously thought Liang Xuan was just a friend of Han Jingting, so he hadn’t paid too much attention.
But today, Liang Xuan’s behavior was clearly abnormal.
First she had advised Han Jingting not to bring him, and now she was deliberately blocking him to create an opportunity for that Young Master Fucha.
There was nothing simple about Liang Xuan’s intentions!
"Jingting is my wife; is there a problem with me sitting next to her?"
Chen Xuan looked at Liang Xuan, his voice cold.
Liang Xuan frowned slightly.
She had only met this Chen Xuan once before, and her firm impression was that he was nothing but a useless, spineless man who was constantly put upon.
However, the aura he was now emitting gave Liang Xuan a sense of pressure and surprise.
Before Liang Xuan could speak, Cao Yan, accompanied by a few other guys, had already surrounded them.
Without any regard for decorum, Cao Yan draped an arm around Chen Xuan’s neck and said meaningfully, "Didn’t we say that your ’wife’ has important, private matters to discuss with our Brother Can? Don’t interfere without reason."
"Since Miss Han has gone to the trouble of bringing you here, you’re a guest. Today is our first meeting, so come, let’s all toast to you!"
Cao Yan picked up a glass of wine and handed it to Chen Xuan.
Before they arrived, Fucha Rongcan had already told them to provide cover for him.
Now, naturally, they needed to block Chen Xuan properly, to create an opportunity for Fucha Rongcan to pick up girls!
"That’s right, that’s right, we’ve all been waiting to toast to you, hurry up and drink!"
The young scions of the Fu family behind him also clamored boisterously.
Liang Xuan’s mouth curled into a schadenfreude-filled cold smirk.
She immediately grasped Cao Yan and the others’ intentions.
With so many people, each toasting him with a drink, Chen Xuan was bound to be too drunk to stand.
By then, Fucha Rongcan could do whatever he wanted with Han Jingting!
Thinking of this, Liang Xuan also echoed the sentiment, "Have some manners, will you? Young Master Cao is offering you a drink. Hurry up and take it!"
Cao Yan looked at Chen Xuan with a feigned smile, yet no warmth in his eyes, "What’s the matter, you’re not going to save us face, are you?"
The Fu family’s young scions behind him also assumed an attitude ready to give Chen Xuan a hard time.
Chen Xuan had, of course, seen through the intentions of these people long ago.
It seemed that Young Master Fucha had been well-prepared, inviting Han Jingting to dinner without any good intentions at all!
It was truly a Hongmen banquet! Unfortunately, these people still hadn’t realized who was Xiang Yu and who was Liu Bang!
Chen Xuan smiled indifferently, "You’ve misunderstood, gathering together is fate, and if we’re to toast, I should be the one toasting you!"
"Only, I’m not too keen on using cups to drink; too effeminate."
"How about this, let’s drink straight from the bottle. What do you think?"
Cao Yan was dumbfounded, and those young scions were also exchanging puzzled glances, unsure of Chen Xuan’s intention now.
This was fifty-two degrees high-alcohol liquor; drink from the bottle? That had to be a joke, right?
Cao Yan thought that Chen Xuan was merely bluffing to scare them and felt disdain.
"Sure, let’s drink from the bottle, who’s afraid?"
As he said this, Cao Yan opened another bottle of liquor but didn’t drink himself, passing it instead to a chubby boy next to him.
"Fatty, come on, you drink with him first!"
Cao Yan was cunning, pulling up a human shield first to test the waters.
The chubby boy’s family was wealthy, too, but he clearly had a lower status in the circle compared to Cao Yan.
So when Cao Yan spoke, he naturally didn’t dare to object.
Moreover, the chubby boy thought the same as Cao Yan and the others, believing Chen Xuan was only putting on a front and didn’t take it seriously.
"Come on, drink up!"
The chubby boy clinked bottles with Chen Xuan and then tilted his head back to drink.
As he drank, he kept an eye on Chen Xuan’s progress, planning to stop as soon as Chen Xuan did.
What he didn’t expect was that Chen Xuan, once he lifted the bottle, showed no intention of putting it down.
In just a moment, an entire bottle of white liquor had been emptied into Chen Xuan’s stomach.
"Holy shit..."
Cao Yan and the others beside him were all stunned.
That was an entire jin of white liquor, downed in one gulp?
Isn’t that a little too fierce?!
The chubby boy was utterly bewildered; he had thought his opponent was just bluffing. Who knew he was actually serious?!
