Chapter 917
Of course, they had to toast Yang Sisi with every question as well .
Yang Sisi had never been in a situation like this before, so she was a little nervous . Every time someone asked her a question, she would first sneak a glance at Xu Jiamu, mumble a short answer, naively clink glasses with someone, and down the drink .
Xu Jiamu could tell she was a bit uncomfortable, so he said, "Guys, quit teasing her . "
Though he spoke in a flat voice, to everyone's ears he sounded a little protective .
With that, Xu Jiamu called the waiter and switched the glass of rice wine in front of Yang Sisi for a warm cup of corn juice . Then, he picked up some food and put it into her bowl .
Having seen this, everyone smiled understandingly .
Song Xiangsi also smiled, but when everyone asked her to drink with them, she didn't bother to find an excuse and downed her drink without messing around .
Xu Jiamu didn't have much to say, nor did he really drink . Every now and then, he would shoot a glance in Song Xiangsi's direction . Seeing as she didn't refuse anyone's drinks, downing one glass after another, he couldn't help but furrow his brows .
"Jiamu . . . Song Xiangsi can really drink," softly whispered Yang Sisi, who also paid attention to Song Xiangsi .
Xu Jiamu turned his head and smirked at Yang Sisi . Then, picked up more food and put it into her bowl .
"Jiamu, did you forget? I hate eating mushrooms . " Yang Sisi picked up her chopsticks, and put the food back into his bowl .
Xu Jiamu was stunned for a moment, then picked up his own chopsticks and courteously put a piece of fish into her bowl . .
Only then did Yang Sisi smile at Xu Jiamu with curved eyes, and lowered her head to eat .

He turned his head and stared at the plate of mushrooms . Then, he held the chopsticks and slowly put the food into his mouth .
It was Song Xiangsi who liked to eat mushrooms .
There was a private restaurant that served mushroom hot pots on Beijing's second Ring Road . It was Song Xiangsi's favorite . He took Yang Sisi there for their first meal out . That was when he learned that she didn't like to eat mushrooms, so whenever they ate out together, he would always be weary of ordering them . However, tonight . . . eighty percent of the dishes on the table had mushrooms .

Since Yang Sisi was being protected by Xu Jiamu, everyone else tried their best to get Song Xiangsi, who was pretty, to drink .
No matter how well she could take her alcohol, after downing one glass after another, she couldn't stomach it . It was quite obvious, for she was a little sluggish when she downed her next drink .
Xu Jiamu looked calm and serene, yet his hand silently gripped his chopsticks tighter .
That woman . . . was about to finish a liter of rice wine . . . Ever since he sat down, she hadn't eaten a thing . Did she want to die?
All of a sudden, Song Xiangsi couldn't take it anymore, so she jumped up and left the room .
Xu Jiamu, who appeared calm throughout, pursed his lips, like he was struggling with something . Eventually, he put his chopsticks down on the table, and walked out of the room with "Off for a smoke" .
He hastily walked over to the restroom . Without even entering, he heard the sound of Song Xiangsi vomiting .
