“There’s no need!” Bai Tang said.

Helian Qi smiled and did not say anything else. What he wanted was her. Where the children went had nothing to do with him. It was best if there was someone to watch over them. Even if there was no one to watch over them, he had a way to make them obedient.

The two of them entered a high-class room. Bai Tang ordered the most expensive dishes in the Drunken Immortal Pavilion, looking like she wanted to make him poor. Helian Qi did not expose her. With a beauty by his side, so what if he was scammed? If she liked it, he could buy this restaurant for her.

Bai Tang smiled and said, “The specialty of the Drunken Immortal Pavilion is stinky tofu and snail noodles. The taste is a little heavy, I’m afraid you won’t be used to it.”

Helian Qi looked at her affectionately. “It will be enough with a beauty by my side.”

Disgusting!

Bai Tang secretly rolled her eyes. In the end, she did not order these two dishes. She was afraid that she would be so focused on eating that she would forget to fight with this fellow. She changed to ordering a jar of thirty-year-old Huadiao.

The flower carvings in the Drunken Immortal Pavilion were all transported from Jiangzuo. Not only was the wine strong and mellow, but it was also very strong after-effect.

After ordering, Bai Tang used the excuse of going to the toilet. In fact, she wanted to drug the dishes. She had been wandering outside for many years. How could she not have some self-defense methods?

Helian Qi smiled generously. “Please help yourself.”

Bai Tang narrowed her eyes. “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll run away?”

Helian Qi gestured for Bai Tang to look down.

Bai Tang pushed open the window suspiciously and stuck her head out to take a look. She saw that the little munchkins who were supposed to be with the shopkeeper had run far away and were playing happily with an unfamiliar servant.

That servant was… this bastard’s coachman!

Bai Tang clenched her fists under her wide sleeves.

“Miss, do you still want to relieve yourself?” Helian Qi asked with a smile.

Bai Tang cursed his eighteen generations of ancestors in her heart. She turned around and said with a fake smile, “Of course I have to go. Please wait for me for a moment, Master. I’ll come and serve you your meal later.”

Helian Qi smiled and gestured for her to go ahead.

Bai Tang left coldly.

Bai Tang mixed into the kitchen and added a double dose of knockout medicine to a few new dishes. This knockout medicine was colorless and tasteless. It melted when it touched water. It looked like it was just a few more drops of soup.

After Bai Tang was done, she returned to the room.

Bai Tang had thought about it. If this fellow didn’t eat the dishes, she would force him to drink. If he didn’t want to drink, she would feed him the dishes. The wine wasn’t drugged, so Bai Tang guessed that she would most likely drink it too. As for the dishes, she had only drug the meat dishes. When the time came, she would just excuse herself for eating vegetarian.

A table of dishes was quickly served.

As expected, Helian Qi first poured a glass of wine for Bai Tang before pouring a glass for himself.

Old fox! Bai Tang smiled and picked up her wine glass. “Master, it’s too boring for us to drink like this. Why don’t we play games while we’re at it? Whoever loses will drink.”

“I can’t do your… Capital’s drinking game,” Helian Qi said.

Bai Tang smiled and said, “Master, you’re not from the Capital. That’s fine. I’ll teach you.”

Ha, she owned a restaurant. Who could beat her in drinking games?

Helian Qi lost very badly. He had drunk most of the thirty-year-old Huadiao. Ordinary people would have collapsed after drinking so much, but Helian Qi was not drunk at all.

Bai Tang’s eyes flashed and she asked Helian Qi, “Why aren’t you eating?”

Helian Qi held her tender hand and said, “Help me take it.”

Bai Tang wished she could chop off his wolf claws!

“Okay.” Bai Tang smiled sweetly and picked up a piece of braised pork belly with sauce for him. She remembered that there was the most knockout medicine in this dish. “Master, try it quickly. It’ll turn cold if you don’t eat it.”

“You eat too,” Helian Qi said.

Bai Tang said, “I’ve been eating vegetarian and chanting Buddha with my mother since I was young. I don’t eat meat or fish.”

Helian Qi looked at Bai Tang’s snow-white neck evilly and said, “No wonder you looked so otherworldly and beautiful.”

Bai Tang smiled brightly. “Master, please.”

Helian Qi ate it with a smile. His evil look did not look like he was eating meat, but white lotus.

Bai Tang was disgusted and picked up a few more meat dishes for him. Helian Qi accepted all of them. Finally, when he was on his sixth chopstick, his body froze. His eyes rolled back and he collapsed on the table!

Ha!

He had finally fallen!

After eating so much, she almost thought that the knockout medicine had lost its effect!

Bai Tang pushed him and confirmed that he had really fainted. Then, she clapped her hands in satisfaction and stood up to walk out of the door. However, after taking a few steps, she suddenly felt dizzy.
