Lin Wenxi drifted into a light sleep. Hearing the dorm door creak, then he saw Gu Xi walk in the dorm with a dull look.

Gu Xi went motionlessly to Lin Wenxi's bedside and sat down. He was as quiet as the air.

"Gu Xi, haven't you gone to help Zheng Kai deal with affairs of the seventh week after his father's death?" In surprise, Lin Wenxi asked. He was the only person who stayed in Dorm No. 216 at the moment. Wang Xiang must have hung out with some girl. He was quite mysterious at his whereabouts all the time. In the countryside, according to the traditional customs, the first seven days after someone died and the seventh week after someone died were quite significant. Zheng Kai felt reluctant to go, but he still chose to go back to see off his dead father for his last journey in this world. And without asking anyone, Gu Xi went together with Zheng Kai.

"Wenxi, last year's Chinese Valentine's Day, what is your feeling when Zhao Yuan treated you like that?" Gu Xi murmured a question.

"You... What made you mention this suddenly?" Lin Wenxi could not help flushing slightly.

"You want him to treat you like that, do you?" Gu Xi said with a smile.

"It, it seems to be an inappropriate topic for discussion at this time." Lin Wenxi could not help feeling a bit embarrassed.

"Does it hurt?" Gu Xi asked.

"Yes... a little bit." Lin Wenxi was too embarrassed to admit.

"But you must have been happy," said Gu Xi.

"Gu Xi, what's wrong with you?" Lin Wenxi became a little anxious. He touched Gu Xi's forehead to see whether he had a fever or not.

"It hurts," Gu Xi said while smiling. Without saying anything more, he lay at Lin Wenxi's bedside. "Don't ask me any questions. I want to have a sweet dream. That's all."

Gu Xi never mentioned what had happened that night. He just changed his dorm at the day when Zheng Kai came back. Then there came a new roommate. Except for learning and making up his lessons, Lin Wenxi exhausted all his time and energy to plan a lot of issues, so he didn't spend that much time staying in the dorm with his new roommate. Gradually, he forgot that night Gu Xi laying beside him and fell asleep soon. On the bed, Gu Xi left a puddle of cold liquid.

"I didn't complete the task of the boxing field, but it was because of the accident. Is there anything else that I can do?" Zhao Yuan proposed a toast to the shopkeeper of the MO Capital.

"Only for your sake, I sit here and talk to you after you failed the task. As for other things, we will not choose the person who has failed to complete a task!" The shopkeeper pushed the glass away gently.

Zhao Yuan drank three cups of high-concentration Hengshui Laobaigan in a row. He raised his glass and proposed a toast once again, but the shopkeeper only gave him a cold smile.

"Kid, Laobaigan is nothing but bullsh*t. If you dare to drink this bottle of vodka, I will believe in your sincerity!" The clerk beside the shopkeeper grinned from ear to ear.


"Give it to me!" Zhao Yuan said in a clear and loud voice. He didn't frown, and he reached out without consulting anyone.

With the noise of a loud splash, Zhao Yuan glugged down the bottle of vodka. Immediately after that, he felt that his tongue and mouth were tingling for this liquor was very strong.

"Do you believe my sincerity now? But your opinion is fu*king useless." Zhao Yuan grabbed the collar of the clerk and pushed him away violently.

"Today, if I can walk out of the door soberly, every one of you has to believe me!" Zhao Yuan stood up and endured his strong dizzy feeling, his whole body burning like fire.

"Pa, pa..." Clapping his hands hard, the shopkeeper tilted and looked at Zhao Yuan with interest. He moved his chin to gesture at that clerk who just asked for a snub. Instantly, the clerk went away. When he came back, he carried four small crystal cups of wine here.

"These four cups are also vodka. I don't know whether or not you have heard of it." The shopkeeper covered one of the cups with a glass hood and opened the cap of it. After that, he took out a diamond-studded lighter and snapped it. All of a sudden, the flames dashed around in the hood. The shop clerk instantly poured sand into the hood and covering it with the glass cap. The fire continued burning inside for a while and died out.

Zhao Yuan looked coldly at the cup of wine. "I'm afraid that the concentration of this wine is much stronger than ordinary liquor."

The shopkeeper pushed the other three cups of wine over. He laughed out loud. "Drink them, the water of life, 96 degrees."

"Sure enough." Zhao Yuan thought. He picked up the cup and gazed at the Polish Distilled vodka. He smiled coldly and polished off the vodka. It felt like his lips were going to burst open. A ball of fire blocked in his throat, which burned straightly to his stomach. Suddenly, Zhao Yuan felt a sharp pain in his stomach as if someone was punching his stomach, again and again. Gradually, Zhao Yuan felt his consciousness fade.

"How is the taste?" Zhao Yuan heard a dizzying sound. During this time, even a little noise could give Zhao Yuan an extremely intense stimulation.

"Then, I'll just close my eyes," Zhao Yuan thought.

His sense of dizziness seemed to be getting stronger and stronger, and he felt as if his eyeballs were going to pop out. He seemed to be rising high into the air and enter an illusory world.

"I could not fall down because I have two more cups to drink."

Zhao Yuan lifted the cup and opened his eyes. Smiling faintly, he emptied his cup in one gulp once again.

Zhao Yuan felt another wave of violent burning, but it was not so intense as before. Before his stomach absorbed the alcohol, Zhao Yuan picked up the third cup. Now his hands were shaking slightly, somewhat uncontrollably. After he drank up the third cup in one swallow, Zhao Yuan opened his eyes and looked at those people quietly.

Many clerks had heard that someone was going to drink three cups of the water of life in succession. They gathered around one after another to see what exactly was going on. Someone could not help heckling him, "Tough cookie, walk two steps!"

Clenching his fists tight, Zhao Yuan slowly stood up. He tried hard to fight down his feeling of shaking and took one step forward, then another.

"Zhao Yuan!" Chen Wanxin ran through the door and came up to help him.

But Zhao Yuan stopped Chen Wanxin. "I can walk."

On the verge of collapse, every step he took was so difficult. "I have told myself that originally, the world is barren so that everything is free from attachment. I'm waiting for myself to walk out of the dilemma, step by step."

Zhao Yuan reached the door. Then he turned around and stared fiercely at the shopkeeper. "When?"

The shopkeeper said while smiling, "You can come back tomorrow."

Chen Wanxin turned around and cast a glare at the shopkeeper. Upon seeing this, Zhao Yuan could not help feeling surprised in his heart.

"Why should I wait until tomorrow?" Zhao Yuan deliberately asked.

"I have to cut the dress according to your figure." The shopkeeper smiled. He lifted his cup and walked into the internal chamber without saying goodbye.

"Yuan, why did you come to this place again?" Chen Wanxin asked eagerly.

"I belong here," Zhao Yuan said briefly.

"How can it be possible? How can it be possible?" Chen Wanxin shook her head in a panic.

"How can it not be possible? Wanxin, did you forget that I have been working here all along?" Zhao Yuan said with a smile and still struggled to walk.

"Chen Wanxin, I don't want to verify that you have something to do with this place at all! The Mo family, Zhang Dong, and Wanxin. Hehe, let me stir the muddy water and make it more turbid!"

Right after they returned to Chen Wanxin's place, Zhao Yuan threw himself down on the bed.

Chen Wanxin helped Zhao Yuan take off his shoes and tucked him in. She poured a few cups of boiled water with a little vinegar and fed him. Chen Wanxin lifted Zhao Yuan and let him lean on her shoulder. After a short time, Zhao Yuan made an uproar, and he puked until his gastric juice overflowed all over, and everything around him became a mess.

It took Chen Wanxin a long time to take care of him and clean up the mess. Until Zhao Yuan finally fell into a quiet sleep, she picked up her phone in tears.

"I have told you that you cannot let Zhao Yuan join in!" Chen Wanxin walked on the street, wrapping her overcoat tight. The early spring weather was so chilly that it was even a little colder than in the cold winter.

"Miss, it is what Boss Mo meant. Boss Mo will not ask Zhao Yuan to make a guarantee, but he needs Zhao Yuan to do something to check whether or not he is sincere enough. At the time when Zhao Yuan identifies him as a qualified seed for the Mo family, you may go to discuss with Zhao Yuan about this yourself. After all, Zhao Yuan's own will is the most important, am I right?" replied the shopkeeper respectfully with a slightly proud voice, which greatly annoyed Chen Wanxin.

"Stop saying useless sh*t! Is Zhao Yuan's will useful? I know perfectly well what you have done to Zhang Dong!" Chen Wanxin said sharply.

"Now, Zhao Yuan have nothing in the world. It is a nerve-racking thing for me to get his guarantee. I cannot kidnap you to threaten him," the shopkeeper said.

"It's useless to kidnap me!" Chen Wanxin said coldly. "You should go to kidnap Lin Wenxi instead, who is unusually quiet recently. Lin Wenxi, he is strangely quiet these days."
