After sitting down, it wasn't long before the food and drinks were immediately served.

"Brother Qin, a great kindness doesn't need to be thanked with words. This drink, I offer to you…"

Xiao Dao's temperament was very firm and hearty and it was because of this character that Qin Fang had so resolutely decided to help them in the beginning.

At that moment, Xiao Dao poured a full glass for himself and downed it in one gulp.

It was unclear whether the large glass cups used for drinking were a feature of the restaurant or specially arranged by Xiao Dao and his friends... Fortunately, they were drinking beer. Had it been spirits, Xiao Dao would probably have been half wasted after one glass.

"Good, what a capacity for alcohol... I'll drink too!"

Qin Fang was naturally quite pleased, filled his own glass to the brim, and prepared to bring it to his mouth.

"Maybe it's better not to drink. You still have to drive in the afternoon!"

But just as Qin Fang was about to drink, his arm was grabbed. Looking at the full glass of beer, the usually quiet Li Yuerong frowned and said softly to Qin Fang.

"Hehe, it's okay, don't worry... If I can't drive, I'll just have someone come to do it!"

Qin Fang chuckled. Since they came out to eat and everyone was drinking, it would be disrespectful if he didn't drink... Besides, his tolerance was pretty much of the 'thousand cups without a stumble' type, so this bit of beer was nothing to him.

When Li Yuerong heard Qin Fang's response, she did not persist in advising him. She knew that Qin Fang had people protecting him and if he did drink too much, someone would take him home. This reassured her quite a bit.

Su Yuan was more composed, just sneakily glancing at Li Yuerong, throwing a mischievous look that made Li Yuerong's cheeks turn slightly red and she rolled her eyes at Su Yuan.

"Me too, I'll drink up…"

With no one stopping him, Qin Fang raised his glass and, like Xiao Dao, finished his beer in one long draft without changing color or losing breath, as if he hadn't drunk a thing.

"Great..."

Everyone immediately praised in unison!

"It's my turn next, my turn next…"

Thus, the food continued to be served, but the drinking slowly picked up, glass by glass, round by round, and the group quickly became one lively bunch.

The atmosphere gradually warmed up, and even Su Yuan and Li Yuerong began to blend into it, both having consumed a few drinks.

Su Yuan could handle a few glasses; when Qin Fang first met her, she was unconscious from drunkenness, and although there might have been suspicions of her being drugged, she did have some tolerance for alcohol. She was in high spirits today and drank more than a bottle.

Li Yuerong had never drunk before, but she even joined Qin Fang for a glass... However, after one glass, her face developed the flushed redness of inebriation, and she leaned to one side.

But this also showed the spirited atmosphere of their meal, with everyone quickly mixing in together.

"Hey, isn't that Teacher Chu?"

Tian Ziqi had the sharpest eyes, or as described by Xiao Dao's friends, "a pair of rat eyes" – shifty and always looking around... During the drinking, he suddenly mumbled this observation.

Everyone was slightly startled, and following Tian Ziqi's gaze, they looked over just as the other party was also about to go upstairs. Their eyes met as they looked in their direction, colliding with each other.

"It really is Teacher Chu..."

"It truly is!"

"Who are those two men with him, never seen them before..."

Upon this collision, Xiao Dao, Li Yi, and the others all turned to look, their expressions changing as they began murmuring to each other.

Qin Fang hadn't been concerned at first, considering the newcomer was Xiao Dao and their teacher, whom Qin Fang certainly didn't know. He naturally wouldn't butt in, but that didn't stop him from taking a glance.

But that one look was enough for him to understand why Xiao Dao and the rest had such a strong reaction.

Ascending the stairs was a woman flanked by two men. The men were adequate, decent-looking and somewhat handsome, but they were clad in clothes that were noticeably expensive.

Qin Fang had just gone shopping yesterday with Ning Yumo and Cai Qing, visiting several boutiques of world-famous brands. He knew that some brands offered custom-tailored clothing at eye-wateringly high prices... and the garments these two men were wearing belonged to that category.

But that wasn't what mattered to Qin Fang. Compared to the woman, these two men were nothing but toads to a swan, beauty only enhancing their mediocrity, like piles of cow dung beside a flower offering...

Her flowing black hair casually draped over her shoulders, her face shaped like a melon seed with willow-leaf brows, cherry lips, thin lips, a round chin, and a pert nose. Such features combined to create a strikingly stunning impression...

There's no need to mention her figure either, with a tight black leather jacket accentuating her shapely bust and a common style of black slimming leggings covered by an exceedingly short black leather skirt, showcasing her elongated legs...

The black stiletto boots on her feet only highlighted her statuesque and perfect form... With just one look, even with her company, the two men didn't measure up anymore.

Even someone like Qin Fang, who had seen his fair share of exquisite beauties, couldn't help but admire this woman and exhale a single word – "Beautiful!"

This woman was not just beautiful, she also exuded an extremely wild aura... like an untamable stallion! Using a more contemporary term, she was indeed a "Queen"!

Yes, a Queen!

If she had a whip in her hand, the image would be even more fitting!

Yet this kind of woman was a university teacher. Without even thinking, Qin Fang knew she must be the object of many students' dreams and... nocturnal emissions!

As a man who had been through it, Qin Fang remembered the first time he saw his first woman and teacher, Fan Ning, he too had harbored such thoughts...

Knock, knock, knock, knock~~

Just as Xiao Dao and the others were wondering why their dream goddess, Teacher Chu, would come to dine here with two men, they noticed the beautiful teacher confidently marching toward them in her high-heeled boots...

The two pitiful men with her had a subtle shift in their expressions but had no choice but to follow Teacher Chu as she approached.

"Teacher Chu..."

Li Yi, the leader of their group and one of Teacher Chu's students, quickly stood up to greet the beautiful teacher as she approached.

"I haven't eaten yet, and seeing that you are all dining here, I don't mind adding an extra pair of chopsticks, do I?"

However, unexpectedly, Teacher Chu was anything but polite, pulling up a chair with a nonchalant air and sitting down.

Xiao Dao and the others totaled six people, plus Qin Fang, Su Yuan, and Li Yuerong, that made nine. The table was a standard ten-person round table, and just like that, Teacher Chu had commandeered the one spare seat.

"Mr. Xiao Chuan, Mr. Tanaka, I'm truly sorry, but it seems I won't be able to join you. These are all my students, and we had already arranged to dine together... Sorry!"

Not only had she taken the seat, but Teacher Chu also unapologetically used Qin Fang and the group as a shield... From their names alone, it appeared that the two lackluster men were from Japan.

"Right, we have an appointment with Teacher Chu, please forgive us..."

After Xiao Dao's issue, they all had a considerable distaste for Koreans, but the Japanese weren't much better in their eyes. Since the beautiful teacher clearly disliked dining with these two men, Li Yi and the others were more than willing to play the part of the shield and promptly shooed them away.

"Baka..."

While the beautiful teacher had spoken with some civility, Li Yi's remark was quite blunt. Xiao Chuan merely changed his expression, but Tanaka, apparently lacking composure, retorted angrily!
