Chapter 748 - 331: Did I Just Encounter a Top-Tier Rich Second-Generation?

When one of the other guys started talking to him, Xu Yun instantly understood. ’I must have unintentionally stolen their thunder a moment ago.’

’So they want to have a little showdown with me to reclaim the spotlight!’

In fact, Xu Yun had noticed the other three guys as soon as he walked in.

But he was just here to tag along and had no intention of interacting with them. It was best to just pretend he hadn’t seen them.

He had no desire to show off in front of these guys and girls.

To put it bluntly, Xu Yun’s perspective had reached a certain level. He had long since moved past this low-brow stage of needing to flaunt his status to feel important.

In his current view, it was all a bit classless. Low.

If he were to show off now, it would be the kind that symbolized class and status.

Something along the lines of...

"When spring arrives, if I do not speak first, what insect dares to make a sound?"

So, he still politely refused, "I’m not much of a drinker, sorry."

"You’ve got to be kidding me."

One of them, named Xue Jiang, said in disbelief, "Who goes out to have fun and doesn’t drink? Bro, you’re killing the mood."

"Yeah, even if you can’t drink a lot, you can still have a little."

Another guy named Wang Longfei chimed in. "Don’t worry, we won’t get you wasted."

"I wasn’t planning on drinking, but since you all insist, I suppose I’ll join you for a bit."

Seeing this, Anar Guli tried to dissuade him. "Brother Xu, if you don’t want to drink, you don’t have to."

"Yeah."

The other two girls had received gifts from Xu Yun, so they naturally came to his defense. "If you can’t hold your liquor, you shouldn’t drink."

"It’s fine, I’ll just have a little."

Xu Yun opened a bottle of liquor in front of him, turned to Xue Jiang, the one who had challenged him, and said, "Bro, I’m drinking. You can do as you please."

Before anyone could process what he meant, they saw Xu Yun raise the bottle and start chugging. GLUG, GLUG, GLUG.

To everyone’s stunned silence, the entire bottle of liquor was gone, just like that.

Xu Yun set the bottle down and looked at the guys across from him.

The implication was clear: ’Your turn.’

Xue Jiang stared at the small glass in his hand, his face alternating between red and white. He was stuck, not knowing whether to drink or not.

’Dude, didn’t you say you couldn’t hold your liquor?’

’And you start by chugging a whole bottle?!!!’

Seeing this, the other two men’s expressions grew complicated. They silently put away the glasses they’d prepared for taking turns toasting him.

The girls were stunned, seeing what a beast Xu Yun was.

Xiaobei was especially bewildered. "Brother Xu, didn’t you say you couldn’t hold your liquor?"

"But I can’t."

Xu Yun replied with an innocent look on his face, "I can only handle about two bottles of this stuff. Any more and I start to get a little tipsy. It’s nothing like my other friends—they can put away three or four bottles easily."

Everyone: "..."

The moment those words left his mouth, the three guys were so intimidated they immediately dropped any thought of trying to get Xu Yun drunk.

’Holy shit. With a tolerance like that, he wouldn’t even be getting started by the time the three of us would be passed out drunk under the table.’

’Who knows who would be the one making a fool of themselves in the end.’

As Yiyi’s boyfriend, he spoke up to save his friends from the awkward situation. "I think Brother Xu is right. Maybe we should take it easy on the drinking."

"Right, let’s have the birthday cake instead."

Yiyi chimed in to help her boyfriend. "Didn’t you say you got me a birthday cake?"

"Of course." The boyfriend called over a server and asked them to bring out the cake they had prepared.

A moment later, a serving cart was wheeled in, bearing an exquisite, three-tiered cake.

The boyfriend looked at Yiyi affectionately and said, "Yiyi, happy birthday!"

Then, he presented his gift: a Gucci bag.

Yiyi exclaimed excitedly, "Wow, isn’t this bag the one..."

"When we were out shopping last time, I saw you kept looking at this bag, so I knew you liked it and secretly bought it for you."

"Thank you, sweetie." Yiyi, deeply touched, hugged her boyfriend and gave him a kiss.

Xiaobei couldn’t take the PDA. "Ugh, you two are too much! If you want to make out, get a room after the party. I want to eat some cake now."

"Okay, I’ll cut it." Yiyi picked up the knife, made the first cut, and gave the slice to her boyfriend. After that, she started cutting slices for everyone else.

Anar Guli thoughtfully cut a large piece for Xu Yun, while taking only a tiny slice for herself.

Xu Yun asked, "You’re eating so little?"

"I’m afraid I’ll get fat if I eat too much."

"It’s fine. I wouldn’t mind."

Xu Yun lowered his voice and chuckled. "A little more meat on you just means there’s more to hold on to."

"Stop it..."

Hearing this, Anar Guli’s face flushed with embarrassment.

"What are you two whispering about now?"

Seeing this, Xiaobei and Xiaolan sidled over. "And look, she’s blushing! Don’t tell me you two are figuring out where you’re sleeping tonight?"

"How’d you know?"

Xu Yun replied with a grin, "I’m not familiar with the area. Any recommendations for a good place?"

"Huh? So you really are!"

"No! Don’t listen to him, he’s just talking nonsense."

Anar Guli quickly denied it. "We were just making small talk."

The guys on the side saw this and felt a fresh wave of irritation.

All three girls were now fawning over him, completely ignoring them. As two rich kids, they really weren’t used to this.

At past parties, when had they not been the center of attention?

’No way. We have to get our prestige back!’

The young men’s thinking was quite simple.

It was time to flash some cash.

They started talking about money.

"God Xue, didn’t I hear your family just bought you an apartment?"

Wang Longfei asked with a grin, "You haven’t told us where it is, have you?"

"It’s not far from here. It’s in Tangchen Yipin."

God Xue said, a bit smugly, "It’s not that big. Just over 400 square meters."

Sure enough, as soon as he said it, the other three girls all turned to look at him—everyone except Anar Guli.
