534: Chapter 530: Mighty Toad 534: Chapter 530: Mighty Toad Gao Yang really didn’t care much about whether he could drink or not.
After all, it was just drinking, nothing worth competing over so seriously.
Gao Yang didn’t care, but Glolov did, and although Li Jinfang originally didn’t care, after hearing Glolov’s advice, he started to take it seriously as well.
Gao Yang felt that competing with a Russian over drinking was unreliable, especially since one of them was nicknamed “Barrel.” If one couldn’t deduce the implications behind that nickname, that would be foolish.
Samuel could undoubtedly hold his liquor, but Gao Yang had no clue about Li Jinfang’s capacity.
Although he had heard from Glolov that Li Jinfang could drink well, he lacked a direct understanding of just how much he could actually consume.
Gao Yang had drunk with Li Jinfang several times, but if they weren’t getting drunk, it meant they weren’t drinking much.
If they were to drink freely, Gao Yang was always the first to be knocked out, so he had no idea how much Li Jinfang could actually drink.
Samuel and Li Jinfang began their drinking contest.
They ate nothing, just smiling as they waited for their glasses to be filled, then lifted them, tilted their heads back, and poured the liquor into their mouths.
Few in the room could keep their seats.
Uriyangko had already crawled under the table, and Glolov initially leaned on the table, then gradually slid down.
Drinking too fiercely and quickly was why they were knocked out without even a chance to throw up.
Gao Yang kept count of how many drinks both men consumed.
When both had reached their tenth glass, Samuel appeared unaffected, but Li Jinfang’s face turned red and he started to sway in his seat.
Gao Yang frowned.
The alcohol Li Jinfang had consumed had clearly exceeded the limits most people could endure.
Ten glasses meant more than three kilos, nearly four.
Gao Yang really began to fear that if they continued, it might become lethal.
Gao Yang said sternly, “Jinfang, don’t drink anymore.
We still need to leave, and drinking too much isn’t good.”
Without looking up, Li Jinfang just stared at Samuel and shouted, “Brother Yang, don’t interrupt me.
I can drink hard liquor.
Just watch how I’ll knock Samuel down.
As soon as he collapses, I’ll rush to the bathroom to throw up, and that should settle it.
If we drag this out, it could get tricky.”
Gao Yang glanced at Samuel, who was sitting steadily, holding his glass firmly.
He didn’t look like he would fall over after just one drink.
After speaking, Li Jinfang raised his glass, signaled, and then tipped his head back for another drink.
Samuel, showing no weakness, drank as well.
Now, he was fighting alone.
All the Russians had collapsed; he was the only one left sitting.
His main adversary, Li Jinfang, looked like he could still hold up.
Of course, Gao Yang and Bruce, although sober, didn’t count as they weren’t drinking.
Drinking was like conducting a war, and Li Jinfang had even started applying military tactics.
His strategy was a continuous fierce attack until Samuel was down.
Li Jinfang poured and drank quickly, then, while pouring another, he urgently said to Gao Yang in Chinese, “Brother Yang, I can’t hold on much longer.
At most two more glasses.
If he doesn’t fall then, I will.
Get ready to carry someone.”
After speaking and filling his glass, Li Jinfang once again raised his glass to Samuel, saying, “Truly worthy of the name ‘Barrel.’ Cheers.”
Li Jinfang downed his drink, and Samuel smiled, drank his with grace, and seemed to have no troubles at all.
Gao Yang’s heart sank completely, feeling that Samuel was a god of wine, the kind that could never be defeated.
However, just when Gao Yang was starting to despair, he saw Samuel give Li Jinfang a thumbs up, then abruptly leaned forward and face-planted onto the table with a loud bang, right onto the plate in front of him.
Watching Samuel fall, Li Jinfang was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing, “Looked like he was fine, but he couldn’t handle it after all.
Gave me quite the scare, thought I was going to lose.”
After that, Li Jinfang staggered to his feet, leaning against the wall as he moved, and Gao Yang quickly asked, “Where are you going?”
Li Jinfang said boastfully, “I’m going to throw up first.”
Cui Bo quickly helped Li Jinfang to the restroom, and as they opened the door, about four or five people walked in silently, not uttering a word, and started carrying out those who were mostly lying on the ground.
After a while, only Gao Yang and a few others remained in the room.
What was supposed to be a celebration had turned into a drinking contest, and not a single dish on the table had been touched.
Looking at the others, Gao Yang waved his hand and said, “Alright, we can finally start eating, come on.”
Nobody drank anymore, and the few of them began to eat and talk leisurely, at most sipping a bit of champagne that accompanied the meal.
The atmosphere became much more relaxed.
After joking around for a bit, Gao Yang changed the subject and turned to Andy He, “Dr.
He, now that we’ve reached Brazil, you must be thinking of going home, right?”
Andy He nodded and said, “Yes, I’ve been away for a long time, it’s time for me to go home.”
Gao Yang smiled and said, “It’s time to go back, but what are your plans for the future, Dr.
He?
I was wondering how you’ve considered the issue we discussed last time.”
Now that they had reached Brazil, Gao Yang was definitely about to part ways with Andy He.
Since Gao Yang and Andy He had expressed their intention to recruit him, Andy He had only said he would think about it, but until now, he hadn’t given an answer, so Gao Yang felt he had to ask before they parted ways.
Andy He looked down and pondered for a moment, then gave Gao Yang a helpless smile and said, “Honestly, I’m really drawn to your way of life, but I can only regretfully say no for now.
Now that I’m back in Brazil, I definitely need to spend some time at home, and…”
After glancing at Ava next to him, Andy He sighed helplessly and continued, “Ava’s here too, and I need to settle her down properly.
You know, I haven’t really taken Ava out to have fun these past years.
I think I might take Ava to travel around the world, so, I’m sorry, I can’t consider anything else for now.”
Ava beamed with joy, while Gao Yang let out a sigh of regret, “Alright then, have a great time, and also, send my regards to your family.”
Raising his glass to Gao Yang, Andy He smiled and said, “When a settled life becomes unbearable, I hope you’ll still consider letting me join Satan.”
While they were talking, Li Jinfang staggered back without Cui Bo’s help and resumed his seat.
After waving his hand, he said, “The food hasn’t cooled down, has it?
The Russians are all down, no one’s going to disturb us eating anymore, let’s eat!” (To be continued.
