Chapter 409: Chapter 409: Punish Myself with Three Drinks

"Where are you going?" Li Lei asked coldly.

"Heading home, do you need something?" Zhang Yang replied cheerfully.

At the same time, he also sized up Li Lei’s outfit.

It was hard to tell if it was intentional, but she wore very conservative clothing, an all-black tracksuit that covered her completely.

This made Zhang Yang somewhat annoyed. Unfortunately, he wasn’t going to indulge her.

After saying that, Zhang Yang turned around and walked away.

Seeing this, Li Lei quickly grabbed Zhang Yang’s arm.

"I’m already here, where else do you plan to go? Can’t we just have a proper talk?" she said.

Zhang Yang picked up his phone, turned on the screen, then pointed to the time displayed.

"You’re already two minutes late. I’ve said before that I won’t wait for anyone once the time has passed. So let’s chat another day, I’m not in the mood anymore today."

Li Lei was infuriated by Zhang Yang’s words, "Zhang Yang, you’re being too unreasonable."

"With no sense of time at all, who exactly is unreasonable here? You didn’t adhere to the agreement," he retorted.

"That was because there was a traffic jam. What could I have done about it? Could I possibly have flown here?" Li Lei said through clenched teeth.

"That’s your problem, not mine. There, you’ve just wasted another two minutes of my time."

Seeing that Zhang Yang was really about to leave, Li Lei immediately grabbed his hand and, regardless of whether Zhang Yang refused or not, led him into the Shangri-La Hotel.

They didn’t go upstairs but entered the restaurant instead.

A waiter came over, and Li Lei snatched the menu and handed it to Zhang Yang.

With a somewhat forceful air, she said, "Order whatever you want, it’s on me. Consider it an apology for being two minutes late."

Since Zhang Yang was brought here already, he wasn’t in a hurry to leave anymore.

But he was quite displeased with Li Lei’s high-handed attitude.

"You want to apologize sincerely, right? Then show some genuine intent. Otherwise, I won’t accept it, and don’t say I didn’t give you a chance," he said.

Zhang Yang then said to the waiter: "Bring a bottle of the wine I’ve stored."

The waiter looked puzzled for a moment, then asked, "Sir, may I have your name please?"

"Zhang Yang!"

The waiter nodded, "Alright, Mr. Zhang Yang, please wait a moment while I check."

Li Lei looked at Zhang Yang somewhat unexpectedly, not anticipating that Zhang Yang had wine stored here.

After all, Shangri-La Hotel is a five-star establishment. You don’t just get to store wine by being a customer; you must meet a certain spending threshold first.

Who exactly was Zhang Yang? According to her investigation, he was just an ordinary college student, who had become an intern at a major hospital after graduation.

However, he always managed to pull off some impressive feats. It was the same last time, initially intending to use money to make Zhang Yang compromise.

But Zhang Yang outright flaunted his bank transfers worth hundreds of thousands right there, effortlessly.

As she was pondering, the waiter quickly ran over, his expression now extremely respectful compared to before.

"Hello, Mr. Zhang Yang, you have stored two million worth of Moutai Beer with us. How many bottles would you like?"

Li Lei was taken aback, turning to the waiter she asked, "How much wine? Are you sure you didn’t get it wrong about the two million?"

The waiter replied politely, "Yes, ma’am, Mr. Zhang Yang indeed has over two million worth of wine stored here at the Shangri-La Hotel."

Li Lei directly said to Zhang Yang, "Are you sick? Storing so much alcohol."

"Mind your own business, I enjoy it," Zhang Yang retorted right back.

Li Lei was choked up and felt a storm brewing inside her heart.

She had seen wealthy bosses before, but never someone like Zhang Yang, who stored alcohol worth over two million all at once. Was this a joke? Even the wealthy shouldn’t spend like this.

Zhang Yang ignored her and directly said to the waiter, "Just bring a bottle over for now."

"Yes, sir!"

"Sir, what would you like to order?" the waiter asked again, extremely respectful.

"Ordering food—we’ll talk about that later. Perhaps if someone doesn’t sincerely apologize, it’ll save us from wasting time here," Zhang Yang said.

The waiter, a keen observer, immediately noticed some tension between Zhang Yang and the beautiful woman opposite him.

Without saying much more, he quickly brought over a bottle of Moutai Beer, opened it, and poured two glasses.

The waiter then tactfully left.

Looking at the two glasses of alcohol in front of her, Li Lei was speechless.

Her face grew colder as she said, "Zhang Yang, is there really a need to go this far? We could sit down and have a proper conversation."

Sure, let’s drink this first and then talk. Aren’t you supposed to apologize? Don’t tell me you need me to teach you the rule of self-punishing three drinks?"

Upon hearing Zhang Yang’s words, Li Lei was furiously irate. This young man was truly disrespectful.

"So, are you drinking or not? If not, I’m leaving, and this bottle is yours," said Zhang Yang as he was about to get up.

"Wait, I didn’t say I wouldn’t drink," Li Lei quickly stopped Zhang Yang.

"Then please, begin your performance. As a career-oriented powerful woman like you, your alcohol tolerance must be impressive," he said with a mocking face, enjoying watching the usually aloof Li Lei struggle not to respond to his taunts.

This was the thrill of conquest for him.

Li Lei, though embarrassed and annoyed, couldn’t do much but accept the situation.

She had never been humiliated like this before, self-punishing with three drinks was a first for her.

"Zhang Yang, I apologize for being late and I apologize again for my son’s previous behavior," Li Lei said.

"You are you, don’t bring that loser into this," Zhang Yang cut her off sharply.

Li Lei was grinding her teeth in rage. She was usually very calm, but around Zhang Yang, she often struggled to control her emotions.

Without drinking these three drinks, there was no way to communicate normally with Zhang Yang. So Li Lei simply downed the three glasses, clearly showing she could really hold her liquor.

Zhang Yang clapped and praised, "Impressive, truly fitting of a female CEO. Your drinking is extraordinary."

At this point, Li Lei felt a burning sensation in her stomach, which was quite empty.

Drinking so much on an empty stomach was a bit unbearable and even led to some dizziness due to the rush.

What Li Lei didn’t notice was that her face had already turned red.

But Li Lei didn’t care about that and once again asked coldly, "Can we talk normally now?"

"Of course, but are you sure you want to talk here?" Zhang Yang asked.

Hearing Zhang Yang’s words, Li Lei immediately said, "Right here. I won’t be going anywhere else, and I hope you stop harboring those unrealistic fantasies."

"Unrealistic fantasies, huh. Well then, since you put it that way, I’ll give you a chance. Just say what you want to talk about," Zhang Yang responded.
