After drinking, Huang Xiaolong’s face didn’t turn red and his heart didn’t beat faster. Seeing this, those in the room marvelled.

“Little Long…you…you can drink slower, right?! Quick, eat some food, so you don’t hurt your stomach!” Chu Tingting cared about Huang Xiaolong and quickly picked up some food with her chopsticks to feed him. Under the table, she subconsciously held his hand, her pretty cheeks full of intense regret. “It’s all my fault…all my fault…”

Huang Xiaolong accepted Chu Tingting’s kindness, eating the food she had fed him and giggled. “Tingting, thank you for your concern, but…I really can hold my liquor…”

As he spoke, he gently scratched Tingting’s palm under the table.

“Uh” Seeing Huang Xiaolong’s lively and clear eyes, Chu Tingting felt relieved to find no sign of intoxication. She exclaimed, “Little Long…you, you are naughty!”

She tried to pull her hand out of his, but Huang Xiaolong’s grip suddenly tightened.

Chu Tingting shot him a teasing glance but didn’t bother to pull her hand back.

But, she couldn’t help but wonder. “By the way, Little Long, based on what you just said, Yang Kai should suffer from hyperphagia. Who would feel hungrier the more they eat? Even a gluttonous pig wouldn’t behave like this. But you also said he hasn’t fallen ill. I’m a little unclear, what’s going on exactly?”

“Uh…Tingting, are you sure you want to know?” Huang Xiaolong looked at Yang Kai with a bewitching expression.

“Of course I want to know.” Chu Tingting nodded passionately.

“Well…I’ll tell you…don’t make a scene…” Huang Xiaolong whispered into her ear, making her tremble slightly.

“This guy, he is possessed by a ghost…” Huang Xiaolong said in a low voice.

“Uh!!!” Chu Tingting was shocked, but she quickly covered her mouth to prevent a yell and stared at Yang Kai unblinkingly.

“He’s been possessed by a hungry ghost. They are very fierce ghosts, always in severe hunger, highly fond of eating human brains and souls. Before they prey, they often possess the victims, giving them a severe feeling of hunger, causing them to eat incessantly. Eventually, the victims will literally be stuffed to death. Their spirits will then be eaten by the hungry ghosts. Generally, anyone who encounters a hungry ghost is doomed.” Huang Xiaolong explained with a chuckle. “This short and pudgy fellow has been possessed for a week, just like a pig, eating non-stop. If my estimates are correct, he will be stuffed to death in three days.”

Huang Xiaolong’s words stunned Chu Tingting.

While others couldn’t see the hungry ghost inside Yang Kai, Huang Xiaolong could see it clearly…

At this moment, inside Yang Kai’s body, a fierce ghost dressed in red was lurking, full of resentment. The ghost had a skinny body, like that of a starving African child, but its belly was huge with a big mouth.

This was the hungry ghost.

“Quit the bullshit!” Yang Kai glared at Huang Xiaolong and immediately resumed devouring the dishes. He grabbed a whole roasted pig and started to tear into it voraciously. “Enjoy everyone, this pork is delicious, really delicious…”

The classmates watched in astonishment at Yang Kai.

“Ahem…Yang Kai, why don’t I introduce you to some good doctors? Trying traditional Chinese medicine could help. You seem to have a problem.” Deng Zihan, watching Yang Kai gorge himself, suggested.

Boy, Yang Kai has already demolished a quarter of the whole roasted pig in a very short time!

Yang Kai kept his head down and continued to eat, no longer caring to speak or trouble Huang Xiaolong.

Deng Zihan, however, took up the mantle from him, staring at Huang Xiaolong and seeming to plot something.

“Huh? Where is Zhong Hui? She called me a few days ago insisting that I attend this reunion. Why isn’t she here?” Chu Tingting suddenly asked.

Zhong Hui was her close friend and dorm-mate in college. They were inseparable.

Zhong Hui moved elsewhere after graduation and just returned to Binhai couple of weeks ago. She had called Chu Tingting several times insisting she attend the reunion. Chu Tingting had come today largely due to her friendship with Zhong Hui.

Yet Zhong Hui was missing. This was puzzling.

“Oh…” A classmate with a buzz cut, who lived next door to Zhong Hui, explained, “Miss Chu, Zhong Hui is ill. She fell into a coma a few days ago and the doctors can’t figure out why. Her condition…seems like a vegetative state…”

Vegetative state?

“What? How can this happen?!” Chu Tingting was completely stupefied, tears welling up in her eyes. “It can’t be true; she just called me a few days ago!”

The buzz-cut man shrugged helplessly. “I’m telling the truth, Miss Chu. I don’t joke about students’ health. I live next to Zhong Hui and I know her. She’s very much like a vegetable…ah, the hospital…also can’t do anything.”

Zhong Hui was known in school as a kind person; she was well-liked by everyone.

Upon hearing such terrible news, the classmates in the private room fell silent, a shadow of gloom crossing their minds.

Chu Tingting also started to choke up. She picked up the tissues on the table, constantly wailing and wiping away her tears.

“Tingting, don’t cry…” Huang Xiaolong hurriedly consoled. “Don’t cry, don’t be sad, it’s okay, how about… I take a look at your classmate’s condition?”

“You?” Chu Tingting raised her teared up eyes at Huang Xiaolong.

“Mmm, my medical skills are quite extraordinary, even if it’s a true vegetative state, I can cure it.” Huang Xiaolong said, his eyes clear and sincere.

A glimmer of hope flickered in Chu Tingting’s heart!

Although she didn’t know much about Huang Xiaolong’s medical skills, she didn’t doubt for a moment that Huang Xiaolong was incredibly skilled.

Maybe… just maybe… Huang Xiaolong could really help!

“That’s great! That’s wonderful! Xiaolong, after dinner, can we go to Zhong Hui’s house, okay?” Chu Tingting enthusiastically replied, like a drowning person clutching at a life-saving straw.

“Alright.” Huang Xiaolong nodded, smiling.

“Haha, don’t brag too much.” At this moment, Deng Zihan looked at Huang Xiaolong with a playful expression, chuckling. “Alright, let’s continue to drink. As friends, we’re meeting for the first time, spare me some face and drink a few rounds.”

“Oh, how would you like to drink?” Huang Xiaolong replied nonchalantly.

Huang Xiaolong knew this guy was trying to get him drunk to humiliate him. But he was not scared. Not just a Deng Zihan, even if everyone in this private room were to attempt to out-drink him; the ones who would end up drunk would only be them.

“This is how, my friend, we first drink separately,” Deng Zihan raised his glass, “although, my stomach isn’t very good, I usually don’t drink. Today, as a class gathering, I’m making an exception. So, let’s do this… I’ll drink half a glass, you’ll drink a full glass.”

The people in the private room were all left at a loss for words upon hearing this.

What Deng Zihan was proposing was a drinking match with Huang Xiaolong. It’s normal to play drinking games on a night out, but proclaiming that you’ll only drink half as much as the other person is plainly bullying, isn’t it?

“Why should you drink half and I have to drink a full glass?” Huang Xiaolong asked with a puzzled expression. “It seems unfair.”

Deng Zihan’s face immediately darkened. “Unfair? Haha? I’ve already said, I usually don’t drink and today is an exception. Let’s put it this way, when I’m out for business drinks, or gathering with friends, others toast, I drink as I please. Today, you drink a full glass, and I accompany you with half a glass, this is already giving you a lot of face, you know?”

In our country, there are indeed some unwritten rules at the dining table.

For example, in the official sector, when subordinates toast to their superiors, it’s usually the subordinate who must down their drink while the superior drinks at will. Subordinates can’t demand that superiors also finish their drink, because superiors agreeing to drink at all is already showing you face. After all, you can’t compare with their status.

Again, for example, if someone is a big shot, and is more powerful than you, when you toast, you can only down your drink, while the big shot drinks at their leisure.

Yet again, if you’re looking for help or inviting someone for a dinner, you can only drink with a smile.

Being a deputy chief of a police station, Deng Zihan has some power and when he goes out for meals, there are a lot of people trying to suck up to him. The phrase he hears the most is “Chief Deng, drink as you please, I’ll down this one.”

Over time, Deng Zihan has developed a nasty habit of acting arrogant and throwing around his weight at the dining table.

But it’s just not appropriate here!

Huang Xiaolong is neither his subordinate nor seeking his help, so naturally, he won’t give Deng Zihan any face. Moreover, considering Huang Xiaolong’s status, he couldn’t find anyone in this world worth sucking up to.

“If you want to drink with me, that’s fine, but you can’t take advantage of me.” Huang Xiaolong replied matter-of-factly. “You drink as much as I drink.”

Bang!!!!!!!

Deng Zihan fiercely slammed his glass on the table, “I heard you’re still a college student and also from a rural area who hasn’t officially entered society… Do you understand the rules of society? I’m willing to drink with you, willing to accompany you with half a glass, I’m already giving you enough face because of Miss. Chu. What? You’re still not satisfied?”

Deng Zihan sneered at Chu Tingting. “Miss. Chu, your boyfriend really doesn’t know how to behave! If he continues behaving like this when he enters society, he’ll definitely face obstacles everywhere! He’s demanding that I drink as much as he drinks, who does he think he is? His face is beyond saving!”

“Actually… you’ve got it all backward…” Huang Xiaolong chuckled, “I’m willing to drink with you, which means I’m giving you face. How much is your face worth?”

Silence!

The private room suddenly fell quiet!

Only the sound of Yang Kai’s snoring and smacking his lips while eating greedily disturbed the unsettling atmosphere, making it even more eerie.
