Song Beian saw Su Nianen look away after she’d greeted him. It was obvious that she didn’t want to talk to him.

Song Beian leaned over again. “Miss Su, what do you want to drink?”

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned to everyone. “Sit, sit, no need to be a stranger.”

After greeting everyone, he turned to Su Nianen.

“Have you thought about what you want to drink, Nianen?”

The corners of Su Nianen’s mouth twitched. She couldn’t handle people who got overfamiliar with a stranger.

“Why don’t I prepare something for you to drink?”

As soon as Song Beian finished speaking, he called for the waiter who quickly served a few types of wine, fruits, and soda.

Su Nianen looked at the unopened wine on the table and felt a headache coming.

“Beer will do.”

Song Beian was holding a glass of vodka when he heard Su Nianen’s words. He put it down and said to the waiter standing by,

“A dozen beers.”

Su Nianen’s eyes widened. Were people in bars all drinking like this nowadays?

Song Beian turned around and was overjoyed to see Su Nianen’s gaze.

“What’s wrong, En? Do you want some food?”

Su Nianen’s face stiffened. In less than two minutes, the way this fellow addressed her had changed three times.

Song Beian’s intimacy not only made Su Nianen feel strange, but the people around him also felt surprised. Everyone’s gazes seemed to fall on Su Nien.

The many gazes that Su Nianen received were obviously because of Song Beian’s attention.

“We’re not close, are we?”

Song Beian brushed his hair. “We’ll get to know each other after meeting a few more times.”

“We don’t have to,” Su Nianen replied politely.

Song Beian smiled and said, “En, you’re brushing me off with that smile, but I like it.”

“…” Su Nianen was stunned.

The smile in Song Beian’s eyes was blinding. He did not avoid Su Nianen’s gaze at all.

Su Nianen really didn’t understand. She asked, “Are young people nowadays all so direct and enthusiastic?”

Was this how things were like?

Song Beian laughed out loud. “En, you’re so cute.”

“??”

Su Nianen’s face was full of question marks.

She subconsciously sized up everyone. Everyone in the circle, regardless of gender, was still looking at her.

She turned to Song Beian. “I’m very laughable, aren’t I?”

She was a little angry for no reason.

She stood up, took her clothes, and prepared to leave.

Song Beian panicked and quickly reached out to hold her back.

She turned back, her gaze falling to his hand.

Seeing this, Song Beian immediately retracted his hand and stood up. His attitude was much more sincere.

“I don’t know how I offended you, but I’m really happy to see you today. Why don’t we go upstairs and sit since it’s too noisy here?”

Su Nianen frowned. “It’s late, the elderly have to go home and rest. We can’t stay up late. I’m sorry.”

Song Beian laughed softly. “En, you’re two years younger than me.”

This guy even knew that?

Su Nianen looked up. Questions flashed across her eyes, but she didn’t care and insisted on leaving.

Only then did Wen Xiaoyu stand up and say, “Nianen, Master Song just came back from overseas. His way of speaking and making friends is different from how we do it in China. If it makes you uncomfortable, don’t take it to heart.”

Song Beian immediately replied, “Yes, yes. If I said anything rude to you, I apologize. En, I really want to be friends with you.”

Su Nianen smiled and Wen Xiaoyu pulled her to sit down.

“You just got here and you’re leaving, that’s no good.”

“Sorry…”

“If you’re leaving, what’s the point of us staying? Don’t leave. How about this? I’ll drink on behalf of Young Master Song. You have to give me face, right?”

As Wen Xiaoyu spoke, she had already poured a glass of strong alcohol. Su Nianen didn’t have time to stop her and she had already drunk it in one gulp.
