But now that she knew that she had taken a fancy to her cousin, Mo Xin was no longer on guard. She smiled softly and said, âDonât lie to me. 1 saw you keep glancing at my cousin. Actually, my cousin is very popular in Daqing. Thereâs nothing to be embarrassed about.â
Bai Xianyu felt a little helpless when she saw her expression which said, âIâve already seen through you.â
ââwine.â
A cold and low male voice sounded from the back of the boat.
This voice was too recognizable. Coupled with an indescribable chill, the voices in the pleasure boat became much softer.
Mo Linyuanâs gaze subtly swept past the girl beside him and landed on Xie Xingyun, whose face was as calm as water.
The guard reacted quickly and filled his cup with wine.
Xie Xingyun ignored everyoneâs gazes and raised his arm slightly. Just as he was about to drink, he was interrupted by Mo Linyuanâs smiling voice.
âI heard that the Prince of Nanzhao is peerlessly heroic, brave, and good at fighting. His alcohol tolerance is also good. As his grandson, Brother Xie should have a good alcohol tolerance, right?â
Along the way, Xie Xingyun did not say a word to Mo Linyuan. Li Dan and the others also felt that something was wrong. Now that Mo Linyuan took the initiative to speak, it was more like an initiative to express goodwill.
They began to smooth things over.
âCousinâs alcohol tolerance is still a mystery. Iâve never seen Cousin drink since he was young.â
âNow that you mention it, this seems to be the first time Iâve seen Cousin drink. He rarely drinks at banquets.â

Xie Xingyun noticed Bai Xianyuâs gaze on him from the corner of his eye. He paused and put the wine cup away.
Then he stood up and looked at Mo Linyuan with his sharp eyes. âLetâs compete?
Li Chun and the others were stunned.
Mo Linyuan was also a little surprised, but he did not seem to be overly surprised. He smiled, âSure.â
Sixth Prince Li Ye was the first to comprehend the situation. âAre you guys competing to see whose alcohol tolerance is better?â
Xie Xingyun did not answer. He turned his head and said, âPrepare the wine.â
The guard responded and immediately went to prepare.
With that, he walked towards Bai Xianyu. Bai Xianyu looked up at him until he stopped on her right. Then, she heard Xie Xingyun say coldly again, âAdd another chair.â
âYes!â
After the guard brought the chair over, Xie Xingyun was on Bai Xianyuâs right.
The two of them were so close that she could smell his unique masculine scent.
In this way, Bai Xianyuâs figure was also blocked by him.
From Mo Linyuanâs angle, not even a strand of hair could be seen.
He smiled, his eyes serious. âWhy donât we roll the dice? One, two, three, you drink. Four, five, six, Iâll drink. Letâs see who canât hold out and collapse first.â
âWhatever.â
Other than a few dense ones, the rest of the people sensed that the two of them were not on good terms.
Li Chun smiled excitedly. âThen Iâll be your judge.â
âSomeone, bring a table over. There must be enough wine. If not, go ashore and buy some!â
âYes, Your Highness!â
Bai Xianyu was a little bored, and with Xie Xingyun blocking her view, it made the position where she was seem cramped.
She changed her seat and sat diagonally opposite Mo Linyuan.
Xie Xingyun saw her running over from the corner of his eye. The cold aura emitted from his body was even stronger, like ice that had not melted for years.
Mo Linyuan was really a little surprised now, but there was also an imperceptible joy in his heart.
He was in a good mood. âLooks like Iâll have to get drunk today.â
Xie Xingyun glanced at the girlâs face and his smile was superficial. âYes, I wonât stop until Iâm drunk.â
Mo Linyuan smirked.
The table was quickly moved over. There were 18 pots of wine in two rows, and a stack of wine bowls was placed in front of the two of them.
âFor the sake of fairness, let me throw the dice!â Li Chun seemed to be very familiar with it. He pressed his palms together and threw.
âThree points!â Li Chun did not notice that the atmosphere between the two of them was not right at all. âCousin, itâs your turn to drink a bowl.â
The guard quickly filled it up and Xie Xingyun drank a bowl expressionlessly.
In the beginning, everyone was bored, so they watched the two of them challenge each other in drinking. However, not long after, everyone dispersed and went to enjoy themselves.
Only Bai Xianyu, Mo Xin, Li Chun, and Li Changming remained.
Xie Xingyunâs luck did not seem to be good. Li Chun threw the dice, and two out of three times, it was his points.
However, Xie Xingyun continued drinking without feeling anything.
Bai Xianyu suddenly wondered if he was angry with her, so he had a bet with Mo Linyuan on drinking.
âSome more.â
Xie Xingyunâs neck was red, and the corners of his eyes were bloodshot..
