Chapter 283 Tristan Is Drunk
“It’s a gathering, so let’s have some alcohol,” suggested Sunny all of a sudden. He was too scared to outright fight Tristan, so he figured he’d settle for getting the guy drunk. The Wheelers had five members, so there was no way Tristan could out-drink all of them.
“Sure.”
Mark got up and went to retrieve a treasured bottle of shoppingmode vodka. He had spent a fortune to buy that bottle. Sunny stared when he saw Mark returning with that particular bottle. Isn’t that his most treasured bottle of shoppingmode vodka? Why is he getting it for us? Mark ignored Sunny’s stare. He simply popped the bottle open and poured everyone half a glass of vodka. Sophie knew her alcohol well. Even the scent of the vodka was exquisite. She picked up her glass and sipped some. The taste was perfect.
“This is amazing,” complimented Sophie before she took another sip.
“Is it really that good?” asked Ysabelle. She had never had vodka before, but the way Sophie appeared satisfied made Ysabelle take a sip.
“Oh, my gosh!” She wasn’t used to the liquor and almost spat everything out. Sophie couldn’t help giggling when she saw Ysabelle struggling like that. The former got the latter a piece of tissue.
“Maybe you should just stick to regular wine.” The shoppingmode vodka was good, but the alcohol content was ridiculously high. For those who had never taken shoppingmode vodka before, it was easy for them to get drunk quickly.
“Mr. Tristan, this is the first time we drink together. I’m sure you won’t turn down our offer to drink up, right?” I’m sure the rich are acquainted with exotic vodkas like these.
“Of course not,” replied Tristan as he picked his glass up. He wasn’t an idiot and knew that the vodka was so rare that it was virtually impossible to procure it, even with all the money in the world. He sipped at the liquor. Not bad.
“Thank you for your treat today.”
“Come on. We’re all men here, so what’s with all the excess politeness? Let’s just drink up,” replied Sunny immediately. He had only suggested getting some alcohol because he wanted to get Tristan drunk.
“Okay, if you say so,” replied Tristan. He knew what Sunny was planning right away. This kid has been hostile toward me from the very beginning. It’s obvious what his plans are.
“I’m young and can be hotheaded sometimes, Mr. Tristan. Please don’t take my rude words earlier to heart. Here, I will drink up to apologize for that,” said Sunny. He downed an entire shot after that.
Tristan picked up his glass and downed his drink as well. Sunny was just a punk to him, so he couldn’t care less. Mark filled his own glass. He didn’t say anything, but he nodded at Tristan and raised his drink at the latter before downing it. Tristan topped up his glass and tossed back another shot. The three other band members took turns toasting Tristan. After that, Sunny started the cycle again.
Ysabelle inched toward Sophie and whispered, “What do we do, Sophie? The tension between the men is so high.”
I knew it. Uncle Tristan being here causes all sorts of trouble. Sophie poured herself another glass of shoppingmode vodka. She enjoyed her drink and watched from the side.
“Ignore them. Just enjoy your food.”
“Oh, okay.”
Can Uncle Tristan handle drinking against all five of them? It’d be so embarrassing for him if he puked in front of Sophie. Sunny was the first one to fall after having too many shots. He collapsed against the couch and just laid there. Mark and Tristan battled until the very end. Mark was a man of few words, but it was clear he didn’t like Tristan either. That was understandable since they were all super protective of Sophie.
“That’s enough. It’s getting late,” said Sophie to put a stop to everything. The two of them had drunk too much, and if they continued, they would end up in the hospital.
“Okay.”
“Okay.” Both men were surprisingly obedient.
“I need to use the washroom,” said Mark. He was actually having a hard time keeping up.
“Are you okay?” asked Sophie in a concerned voice. Mark nodded.
“I’m fine. Don’t worry. I’m good,” replied Mark. He ran to the toilet as soon as he finished talking. Ysabelle followed along because she was worried. All she heard was Mark retching after he entered the toilet. That’s right… Superstars are still human, and he had too much to drink, so it’s normal for him to puke. She left quietly.
