Chapter 197: Chapter 198 Drunkenness 16

"Cooperation? What are you cooperating on?" Rose Hua asked in confusion, looking at Tian Ning and Huo Shaohua.

Shouldn’t these two be love rivals? How are they cooperating now?

"I’ve officially started working at the Huo Group," Tian Ning replied with a smile, his gaze automatically drifting to Tian Xingyun.

"What? Tian Ning, you’re working at the Huo Group?" Tian Xingyun asked in surprise, wondering why he would work there.

"I personally hired him, didn’t he tell you?" Huo Shaohua sat down, smirking as he looked at Tian Xingyun.

It seemed she really didn’t know about Tian Ning applying for the job.

"I planned to tell you on my first day of work," Tian Ning explained to Tian Xingyun, thinking it would be a surprise for her.

He didn’t expect that Huo Shaohua would accompany her back to Huatan Village, revealing the secret.

"Congratulations, Tian Ning. The Huo Group has great benefits."

"Tian Ning, you’re really lucky this time, working at the Huo Group. Your future prospects are limitless," Rose Hua said with a tone of envy. Unfortunately, she didn’t have the qualifications.

Otherwise, she would have asked Xingyun to pull some strings and get her into the Huo Group.

That way, it would be easier to marry a wealthy man and never worry about food and clothes again.

"Thank you, President Huo, for the opportunity. Let me toast you!" Tian Ning picked up the wine jug, poured for Shaohua, and filled his own glass.

"No need to be formal, you’re Xingyun’s cousin, it’s only right. Besides, your abilities earn you this opportunity," Huo Shaohua stood up holding his glass, smiled at Tian Xingyun, and drank it all.

Tian Ning’s expression stiffened, but he kept smiling as he drank.

Huo Shaohua probably guessed his feelings for Xingyun, intentionally calling him her cousin in front of everyone.

Everyone here knew that he and Xingyun would eventually get married.

But things are unpredictable; now she’s someone else’s wife.

"Come, brother-in-law, I toast to you," the second brother stood up with his glass, toasting Huo Shaohua.

This guy was really daring, making Tian Ning look bad on their turf in Huatan Village.

What a joke, if it weren’t for his appearance...

This time Tian Ning came back, the two families planned to let him marry Xingyun.

Who would have thought someone named Huo would show up.

For the rest of the time, everyone took turns toasting Huo Shaohua.

Tian Xingyun tried to stop them but her second brother angrily told her to shut up.

She could only watch as her second brother and Fugui continued to pour drinks for Huo Shaohua.

When her second brother wasn’t looking, Tian Xingyun quietly tugged on Huo Shaohua’s clothing, whispering, "Stop drinking, this wine is very strong!"

"No worries," Huo Shaohua answered with a smile, fully aware of Fugui’s intentions.

They just wanted to get him drunk and make a fool of him.

They underestimated him.

"Stop drinking, this wine is really strong. Last time Hu Yuxi was drunk and dizzy the whole next day," Tian Xingyun kindly reminded him, not wanting him to end up like Hu Yuxi.

"Are you saying I’m not as good as that guy?" Huo Shaohua frowned, a little irritated.

"That’s not what I meant..."

"Drink up, are you scared?" Hua Fugui stood with his drink, eyes sparkling, pointing at Huo Shaohua.

Today he was determined to get this guy named Huo drunk!

"Drink." Huo Shaohua ignored Tian Xingyun, continuing to drink with Hua Fugui and the others.

The men drank until past ten, with Hua Fugui passed out on the ground, unconscious.

The village chief and Aunt Hua took him home with a tricycle.

Rose Hua was also drunk, and Mom Tian and the second sister-in-law took her home.

The villagers slowly dispersed, all a bit tipsy.

Everyone was very happy today because they knew the Huo Group would no longer trouble Huatan Village.

Everyone toasted Huo Shaohua, deeply thankful to him.
