“The ceiling isn’t shaking; you’re drunk,” Tao Zhi said with heartache.
Tian Tian smiled sweetly. “I’m not drunk.”
Tao Zhi then glared at Luo Ya. “If anything happens to Tiantian, 1 won’t let you off!”
Luo Ya was a little scared. When she thought of her family, she felt more confident. She asked Tian Tian, “Tian Tian, do you really like Tao Zhi?”
It was said that after drinking, one would speak the truth. Now that Tian Tian was drunk, everything she said must be true. If Tian Tian said that she liked Tao Zhi, she would most likely tell the truth.

Tao Zhi’s heart warmed. He hugged Tian Tian and said gently, “You’re drunk. Let me take you to rest.”
Luo Ya still didn’t want Tao Zhi to leave. “Ah Zhi, wait a moment. I have something to say.”
Tao Zhi’s gaze suddenly became fierce, and his tone was cold. “I have nothing to say to you!”
“All Zhi-” Luo Ya wanted to stop Tao Zhi, but another man stopped her.
“Luo Ya, don’t you think you’ve lost enough face today?” Luo Ya’s brother, Luo Peng, was furious. “What were you doing just now?”
Luo Ya was extremely flustered. “Big Brother, I… I was talking to Brother Ah Zhi.”
Tao Zhi said coldly, “Young Master Luo, your sister’s way of talking to others is really special. She’s sober, but she likes to force others to drink. I don’t think many people would do that, right?”
Luo Peng knew that he was in the wrong. He apologized and said, “Young Master Tao, it is our mistake. My sister has offended you and your girlfriend. In a few days, 1 will definitely bring her to apologize to you and your girlfriend. 1 hope you can forgive her.”
Tao Zhi said, “My girlfriend is drunk now. I’m going to take her out to rest. As for whether she will forgive Miss Luo, we’ll have to wait until she wakes up.”
He picked Tian Tian up and led her out of the venue. Luo Ya still wanted to follow him, but Luo Peng caught her.
“Where do you want to go?” Luo Peng grabbed her arm tightly.
Luo Ya struggled in pain. “Brother, I still have something to say to Ah Zhi.”
“He already has a girlfriend. What are you going to say to him?” Luo Peng was really angered to death by Luo Ya. He knew that Luo Ya liked Tao Zhi and that today’s banquet was arranged for Tao Zhi. However, he did not know that Tao Zhi already had a girlfriend. Otherwise, he would definitely not allow Luo Ya to come.
“What can his girlfriend help him with? If I marry Brother Ah Zhi, with their family’s wealth and our family’s status, no one in the entire Capital will dare to offend us again,” Luo Ya said unwillingly.
Luo Peng glanced around. He realized that many people were looking at them. Although what Luo Ya said was true, how could such be said openly? If word got out, others would say they were colluding with the government and business. It would not be good for their family.

Luo Ya didn’t want to leave. She said arrogantly, “I’m not talking nonsense. Dad’s status says it all! As long as Brother Ah Zhi and 1 get married, Dad will definitely help the Tao family expand the market. At that time, who in the entire Capital will be better than us?”
Luo Peng did not care about his manners. He grabbed Luo Ya’s arm and dragged her out forcefully. “Come back with me!”
Luo Ya didn’t want to leave. If she was dragged away by her brother in public today, how would she be able to speak in front of her sisters in the future?
“I’m not leaving!” Luo Ya struggled.
Luo Peng couldn’t afford to lose face, so he directly carried Luo Ya up. “You have to leave even if you don’t want to!”
Although the Luo siblings had left, the banquet still had to continue. Everyone ate and drank happily, discussing the farce just now.
Tan Rou and Zhuang Liu watched the entire process from the crowd. They originally wanted to help Tian Tian, but with Tao Zhi by their side, they couldn’t interfere.
“Luo Ya is indeed foolish. She said those words out in public. She’s not afraid of bringing trouble to her father,” Tan Rou commented.
Zhuang Liu commented, “Luo Ya has been spoiled at home; that’s why she’s so lawless. With this lesson, Luo Peng will never allow her to attend any banquets in the future..”
