Chapter 87,A Man Like None Other
Zayne burst into laughter and asked, “Oh? So you’re saying that you can drink very well?” “Well, I
haven’t been drunk before,” Jared answered expressionlessly. Jared’s response had triggered Zayne’s
interest. “All right, then! Since I’ve never encountered a worthy opponent before, I shall challenge you
to a drinking contest!” As he spoke, he waved his hand and requested a crate of liquor from the waiter.
“Jared, don’t overestimate yourself. Since when did you learn to drink liquor? Don’t make a fool out of
yourself,” Hannah cautioned with her furrowed brows. “Don’t worry, Mom. I know what I’m doing,” Jared
comforted. The moment Gary wanted to advise against the challenge as well, Franklin said, “Squad
Leader, let the youngsters be! Don’t you remember the fun we had back then? We used to have
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdrinking contests all the time!”
Upon hearing that, Gary had no choice but to keep his opinions to himself. All he could do was stare at
Jared helplessly. “Zayne, I know you can hold your liquor. Don’t be too harsh on Jared, okay? Besides,
it’s just for fun.” Franklin knew of Zayne’s drinking capability. Because he once witnessed Zayne
drinking a whole bottle of liquor and could still drive on his own. “Don’t worry, Mr. Saunders. For every
glass Jared drinks, I’ll down two!”
As Zayne was speaking, he opened a bottle and started pouring it into his glass. “What a ridiculously
small glass! Bring us two bowls instead!” Jared ordered the waiter. Upon hearing that, Zayne was
stunned as he stared at Jared with his bewildered eyes. “You can handle it, right?” Jared asked with a
faint smile. “Of course! I can even drink from the bottle!” Zayne scoffed. He’s just bluffing to scare me
off! In that case, it means that he can’t hold his liquor!
Soon after that, the waiter brought over two empty bowls. The bowls were so big that each of them
could fit a whole bottle of liquor. “Okay, so how should we do it?” Zayne asked with a provoking tone.
“Well, we’ll do it the fast way.” As soon as Jared finished his sentence, he downed the whole bowl of
liquor. Everyone present was in shock upon seeing that. Gary frowned worriedly and said, “Jared, why
would you drink like that?
It’s not good for your body! Enough, slow down.” “Dad, I’m fine!” Jared assured. He then flipped his
empty bowl over and said, “Zayne, it’s your turn.” Zayne was still in shock. He didn’t know Jared could
do that. Although I can drink, that’s just not the way! “It’s all right if you can’t do it.
Don’t force yourself, Zayne.” Gary was genuinely worried about Zayne. “Yeah, it’s okay if you don’t
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdrink, Zayne. But that’d mean you’ve chickened out.” Jared couldn’t help but taunt him. “Chickened
out?” Zayne was infuriated by the insult. “I’ve never chickened out from a drinking contest!” He then
shut his eyes and downed the bowl of liquor. By the time he was done, his face was flushed. Then,
Jared proceeded to pour out another two bowls of liquor.
Having noticed that things were getting out of control, Gary stood up and shouted, “That’s enough,
Jared!” While ignoring Gary, Jared stared at Zayne with contempt. “Stay out of it! Let’s continue
drinking!” Unable to swallow his pride, Zayne insisted that the contest should continue.
Jared then downed another bowl of liquor expressionlessly. Actually, the liquor had no effect on Jared.
The spiritual energy in his body was able to absorb the alcohol he consumed.
Again, everyone present was astounded as they watched Jared drink another bowl of liquor, especially
when he did it with such ease. “It’s okay, Zayne. Please stop now before you hurt yourself. Don’t
entertain Jared’s stupidity.” Maria was worried about Zayne’s well-being.
