When Su Xi listened from her hiding place, her spirits perked up . With nervousness, she looked at the man whose face flushed from wine intoxication .
"Whaa, what?" Old Patriarch Feng was muddled from drinking . He didn't hear clearly what Lin Cheng Zhi said .
Seeing this, a smile flashed in his eyes . He continued on and asked, "Uncle Feng, do you have my aunt in your heart?"
"Your Aunt?" Old Patriarch Feng let out a wine belch, his eyes were half-squinted . His one hand supporting his head . He was shaking as if he were going to fall down at any moment .
"Mm, my Aunt, Su Xi . "
"Su Xi, Su Xi is a foolish girl . Tell me, why would she fall in love with me, a decrepit old man? I'm a rotten old man . I can't match her . " He spoke while waving his hand .
"But, you should know that my Aunt doesn't care . "
"But I care!"
He seemed to get angry suddenly . He knocked the wine bowl heavily on the table . Half of the bowl spilt over . Then he heard him say, "So what if I have her in my heart? If I love her, then I should give her the best . Since I can't give it to her, I should just continuously push her away, but that silly girl threw herself at me and got her heart hurt time and again . Tell me, isn't she foolish? Very foolish, right?"
"I want to escape, this old man wants to escape this afternoon!" He said in a very serious tone and pounded the wine bowl on the table vigorously . The next moment, however, he frowned again and looked perplexed . "But I have a second thought . If I escaped and she still waits for me, I will really feel very guilty . I couldn't think of a way out for a whole afternoon . Tell me, what would you do?"
He held up the wine bowl to drink, only to find that the wine in the bowl was spilt . He shouted loudly, "Pour the wine!"
Lin Cheng Zhi was caught off guard and he jumped in fright . He looked at him strangely and quickly poured the wine for him . "Then, quickly marry her! It's not a problem that can't be solved . Anyway, my Aunt likes you and won't care if you are older than her . " He also took a sip of wine after being startled by him .
That won't do! I'm old and wrinkly all over, how can I harm Su Xi? Impossible, impossible . "
"Pfft! Cough cough!"
Lin Cheng Zhi listened to his words and choked on the wine . He stared at him . He felt that Uncle Feng's way of thinking and speaking was simply too unpredictable . Even he could say such words as being wrinkly all over . It really made him not knowing whether to laugh or cry .
"Come come, Uncle Feng . Drink more . " While laughing, he poured more wine for him .
However, after drinking two more bowls of wine, Old Patriarch Feng finally fell drunk, and his whole body laid on the table, whispering: "This won't do . . . This won't do . . . "
"Uncle Feng? Uncle Feng?" Lin Cheng Zhi called twice . When he saw that he had not responded, he looked into the darkness and said with a smile, "Aunt, Uncle Feng is drunk . "
Su Xi stepped out from the shadows and walked lightly to the table . Looking at the drunk Old Patriarch Feng, she asked, "Why did you get an idea of having a drink with him?"
"Hey hey, Aunt, I knew Uncle Feng when he came here decades ago, and I haven't had time to talk with him recently . Tonight, I just happened to have time . I took some wine and came to see Uncle Feng for a drink and a chat . "
He stood up and looked at his aunt with a meaningful smile . "Aunt, you and my father's methods are too gentle . It's impossible for Uncle Feng, he doesn't dare to take that step . If Aunt really decides not to marry anyone but him in this life, then you have the chance tonight . "
