316: Chapter 316: Heroes Erge Over White Liquor 316: Chapter 316: Heroes Erge Over White Liquor Perhaps Miao Honglei had already guessed their attitude, for he firmly dismissed the common view, then proposed that Xiang Yu take over Han Guoli’s forces.
And Han Guohua’s forces would still be managed by Pan Wenjie.
“Xiang Yu, can you do well with the opportunity I’m giving you?” Miao Honglei looked at Xiang Yu and asked.
Xiang Yu knew that Miao Honglei had made him the team leader for two reasons: one was his recognition of Xiang Yu’s abilities, and the other was to use Xiang Yu to intimidate people like Pan Wenjie, to tell them that Miao Honglei was the true boss here.
The decision to appoint whover he wanted was just a matter of his word.
The final reason was that Miao Honglei wanted to shut Xiang Yu’s mouth with this move, warning him.
One must not say what shouldn’t be said, for leaking Miao Honglei’s dirty secrets could an losing one’s head.
“Big Brother is honoring by putting in charge, and I will certainly do well,” Xiang Yu assured as he sat up straight.
Pan Wenjie and the other two team leaders, seeing that things were indeed as they had anticipated, all had foul expressions.
They had never felt so humiliated; to be oppressed by a newcor was extrely uncomfortable.
“Don’t be too smug too soon, if you don’t do a good job, Big Brother will still take you down,” Pan Wenjie said coldly to Xiang Yu.
Xiang Yu did not pay any attention to him and then looked at Miao Honglei, asking, “Big Brother, when do I take office?”
“You can take office after you return from here today,” said Miao Honglei, before turning to Pan Wenjie and continuing, “Wenjie, later you go with Xiang Yu for the handover, tell him all the things he needs to know.”
Pan Wenjie was already feeling suffocated, and now, hearing that he had to do the handover with Xiang Yu, he felt even more upset.
However, he couldn’t show this in front of Miao Honglei, after all, Miao Honglei was the boss.
“Big Brother Wenjie, then I’ll trouble you,” Xiang Yu said to Pan Wenjie with a sneering smile, then feigned politeness.
He knew Pan Wenjie would be very angry at this mont; it was deliberate provocation.
Pan Wenjie didn’t respond to Xiang Yu, but looked at Miao Honglei, then said “Yes” in agreent.
“That settles it, co on brothers, let’s feast,” said Miao Honglei, leading the others into a room.
By then, the table was already laid with fine food and drink.
Each dish was of the highest quality.
The table was worth at least ten thousand yuan, but they didn’t care, they were all wealthy.
“No one leaves tonight until they’re drunk,” Miao Honglei laughed heartily.
Everyone poured themselves a drink, and he led with three toasts.
After that, the toasting was more casual, with his n taking turns to toast Miao Honglei.
Miao Honglei just sipped lightly, like a dragonfly skimming the water, while the others downed their glasses in one go.
Xiang Yu was no exception, he raised a glass and said, “Big Brother, I’m so happy today, I toast you.
You’ve shown great favor, and I will surely brave fire and water for you in the future.”
What Xiang Yu said sounded righteous and sincere, but in his heart, he was thinking about how to kill the other man.
Touched by Xiang Yu’s words, Miao Honglei also raised a glass and said, “Brother, you shouldn’t say such things.
We share our fortunes and face difficulties together.
Co on, let’s drink.”
Xiang Yu drank his glass, and Miao Honglei followed suit, finishing the drink in front of him.
Pan Wenjie, observing this, felt uncomfortable inside.
Miao Honglei sipped with others, but with Xiang Yu, he emptied his glass.
It was a clear sign that Xiang Yu had more clout than the others.
At that mont, Pan Wenjie exchanged glances with the other two team leaders, then picked up his glass and said, “I’ve long heard of Team Leader Xiang’s exceptional capacity for liquor, and seeing it today, it’s truly well deserved.
Here, I toast to you.”
Xiang Yu knew the other party wanted to get him drunk, so he ignored Pan Wenjie and just kept eating his food.
Pan Wenjie, holding his drink, paused midair with a sour expression on his face.
Even Miao Honglei, who was sitting there, felt uncomfortable watching, “Xiang Yu, stop eating for now, Wenjie is toasting you,” Miao Honglei quickly said.
It was only then that Xiang Yu looked at Pan Wenjie with a feigned surprise, “What did you say, Brother Wenjie?”
“Drink up.” Pan Wenjie, angered, downed his drink in one gulp.
Seeing Xiang Yu’s smug expression now that he had beco the squadron leader, he felt like hitting him, but it just wasn’t the right ti.
Pan Wenjie had already made up his mind.
Once Xiang Yu took office, he would make sure he knew just how wrong it was for him to have co into this world.
Seeing as Pan Wenjie had finished his drink, Xiang Yu showed no intention of drinking, but eventually, at Miao Honglei’s behest, Xiang Yu finally picked up his glass and emptied it, giving Miao Honglei so face.
The other two squadron leaders followed up with toasts to Xiang Yu.
By then, Xiang Yu had let himself go, refusing no one.
As long as soone toasted him, he would surely oblige.
His approach to drinking seed no different from sipping plain water.
Pan Wenjie and the others took turns toasting Xiang Yu, originally intending to lay him out flat and disgrace him.
But instead of Xiang Yu being affected by all the alcohol, they were the ones who began to feel tipsy.
In particular, Pan Wenjie started feeling drunk after only a few drinks, spouting nonsense.
He said sothing about Miao Honglei being unfair.
At that point, Miao Honglei was also feeling the effects of the alcohol, so he had soone slap Pan Wenjie twice and then carried him back to his room to sleep.
The other two squadron leaders had also reached their limits, with one of them passing out on the table and another sliding down onto the floor from his chair.
It was supposed to be the three of them taking turns drinking with Xiang Yu to get him drunk.
But now, Xiang Yu was completely fine, while all three of them were out of commission.
“A bunch of trash…” Miao Honglei laughed heartily and then continued to drink with Xiang Yu.
In the end, Miao Honglei too passed out on the table.
At that mont, Xiang Yu was still unaffected.
He had a natural tolerance for liquor, no matter how much he drank, it hardly fazed him, at most making his stomach feel a bit too full.
It could be said that if Xiang Yu were to test for a level-one professional alcohol companion, he would have had no problem at all.
Ever since he started drinking, he had never t his match.
Tie Zhuzi and Xiao Xuan, who had been standing by the door, walked in once they saw everyone had hit the deck.
Tie Zhuzi had been starving for a while and attacked the food on the table like a whirlwind.
anwhile, a squadron leader started snoring on one side, which annoyed Tie Zhuzi so much that he kicked him off the chair.
He then sat down to eat.
In the midst of this, Miao Honglei suddenly sat up, grabbed a cup, and tried to drink with Xiang Yu.
This startled Tie Zhuzi so much that he couldn’t help but punch Miao Honglei hard in the face.
Already sowhat dazed, Miao Honglei was knocked out cold by Tie Zhuzi’s punch.
“Brother Yu…” Tie Zhuzi knew he might have caused trouble and looked at Xiang Yu sowhat sheepishly.
Xiang Yu shook his head coolly, “It’s fine.
He won’t rember anything when he wakes up.”
Relieved by the response, Tie Zhuzi kicked Miao Honglei a couple more tis and continued cursing under his breath.
If Miao Honglei knew that Tie Zhuzi was kicking him, he would definitely have been angry enough to spit blood…
