Chapter 361: That’s What It Means
"You told me to deal with him, so I made him drink a kilogram of white wine—"
"I meant for you to handle it financially! Who told you to get him drunk?"
Chen Kaide isn’t Suizi’s biological father. With no fatherly expectations of him, Suizi did harbor a certain compunction.
Even if Chen Kaide wasn’t a competent husband or father, and that Suizi was brought up by solely by Chen Lijun, he provided no economic assistance.
But still, he gave her a nominal father figure, saving her and her mother from the disdain and potential loss of life due to honor issues during that particular period.
Therefore, Suizi wanted to compensate him a bit financially.
But then, her close confidant, Yu Jingting, takes her subtle suggestion and forces a corporate-level interpretation, making the man pass out from drinking?
"I didn’t think he would be such a weakling, someone who drinks heavily like him would get drunk from a kilogram of white wine? Of course, that’s not the point, the important thing is, I got quite a bit of information out of him."
With his mother-in-law being tight-lipped, unable to get anything out of her, Yu Jingting changed his tactic and started to seek clues from Chen Kaide.
"Oh, so you purposefully got him drunk?" Suizi caught on to the key point, just as expected of Yu Jingting, always up to no good.
"Don’t worry about these details, aren’t you curious about what he said while drunk?"
