Chapter 469: The Boss is powerful
There was a moment of silence as Mrs. Hoyle didn't seem as aggressive as she once was since she was about starting a new acquaintance with Olive, and suddenly Mrs. Hoyle didn't know how to communicate with Olive.
"Mrs. Hoyle, do you have anything else to say?"
"No, good-bye."
Olive raised her lips as she listened to the busy beep of the phone hanging up and thought of Mrs. Hoyle's awkward voice when Mrs. Hoyle talked to her.
Was this a good start? At least Mrs. Hoyle was less domineering towards her than Mrs. Hoyle had been.
Annie really helped.
By the time Olive returned to her private box, some of the dim lights have dimmed and the noise of the crowd has died down.
She thought she had gone into the wrong room and was about to come out when she saw the sizzling up of the candle in the middle of the table.
Someone shouted, "Happy birthday, Boss. I wish you many happy returns of the day.
Then they started singing birthday songs in a jagged pattern, making the scene seem old-fashioned and uncreative.
Well, it's Kent's birthday today? Why didn't anyone tell her? How could Alan say nothing to her? If he had spoken to her earlier, she could have prepared a present.
"Make a wish." They cried.
Kent slapped his subordinate on the head. "Today, as a single man, I have been fooling around with you, and you have wished me many happy returns of the day. Do you want me to stay single all the time?"
Kent's subordinate laughed. "What makes you think so? I wish you many years as wise as you are today. Boss, you are so charming, and you are a very rich bachelor, so the line of women admiring you is longer than the train. If you were to remain a bachelor, would you not be hated greatly by both man and God? What do you want those of us who work for you to think? So, if you want a woman, it's as easy as saying a word. All kinds of beauties are yours to choose from, no matter how tall or thin."
With the compliment, Kent's eyes narrowed with laughter, looking like a Maitreya, while he pointed to his subordinate. "Come here."
Kent's subordinate was obedient and moved closer.
"Turn around." Said Kent.
Kent's subordinate didn't understand but turned around obediently.
Kent gave his subordinate a kick in the ass and said. "I haven't seen you learn anything else, but you are getting better at flattering me."
Kent's subordinate wasn't prepared for this, so he had a sudden intimacy with the floor.
The atmosphere was even warmer since everyone in the private box seemed to be laughing their heads off. Kent's subordinate was not ashamed, as he got to his feet and laughed. "Boss, are you deliberately molesting me?"
"You shameless gay, the Boss is a real straight man, so don't expect that."
"Even if the Boss becomes gay, between the two of you, you will be fucked by the Boss."
Amid all the laughing and joking, Olive sat next to Alan, whispering in his ear. "It's Kent's birthday today, so why didn't you tell me about it in advance?"
Alan, who knew what was on her mind, smiled and said. "He doesn't need any gifts, but he does need a woman who is considerate and close to him, while he wants the woman to like him not for his looks, nor his power or wealth, but only for himself."
Shouted Kent. "I'm telling you, I've stopped having casual sex with women, so you guys are going to keep those lascivious women away from me."
Damon laughed. "Boss Bai, are you going to be like Boss Hoyle, saving your virginity for Janetta?"
All these people in Jiangcheng knew that Boss Bai's love affair was always going on, but they didn't always know what's going on in Luo City these few months. So now when Damon talked about this, it's like an instant explosion in the private box.
"Boss, so you already have someone you like."
"Which beauty is it? Tell us quickly."
Kent stared. "Am I that shallow? You like women just for the way they look. Go on, if any of you can drink and win Alan's sweetheart, Olive, I will have a prize for you."
Olive protested. "How does this have anything to do with me? Aren't you deliberately bullying me?"
He's such a bad egg! The alcohol capacity of the woman really couldn't be exposed easily in front of the man, otherwise, this man was always thinking about deliberately getting you drunk.
Kent told her. "You can ask Alan to help you."
"Even if each of us can beat the other three here in drinks, that's still more subordinates of you. Kent, if you really want to beat me at drinking, do it yourself. I don't need my husband to help me, and you don't need to tell your subordinates to help you drink, dare you?" Olive's smiling face was as beautiful as a pear in full bloom, while she looked at him. He's trying to plot against her? No way!
Kent said uncontrollably after being challenged in public by a woman. "Let's fight for a drink now, and I can save you three drinks lest people say I'm bullying a woman."
Olive said directly. "That's not necessary, but I think beer is rather tasteless, so maybe we can put it another way. There's nothing Boss Bai can't do, so how about having a bartender come in and ask the bartender to make different flavors and we'll compete on what the bartender has made?"
"You can't be serious." Said Alan, frowning deeply.
Kent said it out loud deliberately, knowing that his friend was nervous. "What else can there be to lie about? You guys are so disobedient. Why do you do things like that, Kim? Didn't you hear madame say she wanted a bartender?"
"Ok, I'll call a bartender right away." Kent's subordinate who got a kick in the ass ran out immediately.
Olive felt like she had nothing to worry about, so she turned her head to give Alan a reassuring look. It was drinking between acquaintances, and although there were some faces unknown to her, she had Alan by her side, so that even when she was drunk, she had him to carry her home, so she didn't worry at all!
A few moments later, the bartender was called in, along with the waiter, who pushed in a variety of original wines and mixology equipment. Kent's subordinate was quick on the job.
But just drinking could be too monotonous, so Olive had another brainstorm. "Kent, why don't we play a game to add to the fun?"
Kent waved his hand and said. "NO, don't I know you? You have a lot of tricks up your sleeve, and if I'm not careful, you'll set me up again. We only drink, and what's the use of all that drama?"
Olive's newly hatched plan turned out to be unworkable, but it didn't matter, as she smiled and said to him. "What about the one who loses when we drink?"
"If you lose, you know what I want, and if I'm going to lose, you'll be their Boss instead of me." When Kent said these words, he surprised his subordinates with his indifferent tone, and someone even called out.
“Boss……”
Kent had his thought as he has worked hard for years to be the Boss, and now the matter of the Hoyle family was about to be solved, so he can let her win on purpose because if he lost, he could take a long vacation and relax for a while.
Laughed Olive. "If I lose, it is not difficult to do what you want, but if you lose, even if you would like me to take your place as the Boss, your subordinates may not be so pleased, so even if you want to relax for a while, it won't work. Thus, you'd better be your boss and make some other bets with me."
"You found that out, too? If I'm going to lose, I'll do whatever you want." Kent didn't deny what he was thinking, but how could he be the one who lost when they drank?
He was good at drinking since he was very young, so if he lost to such a little woman when they drank, it would be a great insult to his dignity as a Boss Bai, and even if he had seen that she was a good drinker, he would have had to hold out until the end, because that would make him look like a real man.
But as he drank his eighth glass of wine with Olive, it scared him a little in his heart. In particular, when he saw Alan's face, which was black with anger, the words "settle accounts with him afterwards." immediately jumped into his mind.
Kent's subordinates next to her stared at her as she gulped down a glass of wine. They cheered and clapped for her at first, but in the end, they all stared in surprise.
No one drank like Olive as Olive looked like drinking water instead of alcohol. Generally speaking, women couldn't handle alcohol as well as men, not to mention that these drinks were made by the bartender.
Drinking these drinks made by the bartender was easier to get drunk, but she wasn't blushing or dizzy, while she's articulate and clear-thinking, and she's not even a little tipsy.
"Sister-in-law, you really can drink."
Glancing at Alan's angry and blackened face, Kent smiled and said. "You act like a snob. Your sister-in- law, Olive, is a reserved woman and doesn't readily show her skill, but when she does, it will be an astonishment to you, so now you have seen what she can do."
"Indeed, indeed. My sister-in-law is a legendary drinker." There was a voice of approval in the crowd as Kent's subordinates were amazed by her.
Olive chuckled. "Are you still going to compete with me for a drink? I may not win you, but you may not win me either."
Kent ignored Alan's angry eyes, which seemed to be trying to kill him. Kent had a big smile as his eyes were curved. "Are you so confident?"
Olive smiled. "If I didn't have confidence, I wouldn't be able to compete with you, Boss Bai."
"You are a woman, so how can you drink so much?" "Is it because you were lovesick during those years that you drank a lot?" he quipped to her, feeling a little curious.
Olive was teased, but she wasn't angry. Instead, she gave him a meaningful look, and then, slowly leaning towards his ear, she said with a smile. "Why do I think you're more like a loser in love, which is why you're suspected of drowning your sorrows in alcohol? This lively atmosphere sets off your lonely soul."
She saw through his mind, so he snorted coldly. "It's still your fault."
"It's hard to be a good person as I was kind enough to help you, but you blamed me instead of thanking me. My kindness was not rewarded, alas!" Olive sighed deliberately, pretending to be aggrieved.
Kent despised the way she looked. "Bah, are you a good person? I don't know you yet? You're full of intrigue as your naughty Annie."
Olive patted her lower belly. "It's clearly got wine in it, so where's the intrigue?" Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
"Good! No wonder your naughty Annie is so eloquent, as it turns out that she has inherited you. A mother makes a daughter, while a good man will not quarrel with a woman, so we shall go on drinking." With a gesture from Kent, the bartender immediately offered two different drinks.
Alan, with a deep frown, reached out to stop Olive from drinking and said to Kent. "I'll drink the rest of the wine with you. You have one drink and I'll drink two until I have the same number of glasses as you."
Alan could not bear to see them go on behaving like this. After all, Olive was his wife, so even if Olive was a good drinker, it would hurt her body if she drank too much, and even if they didn't care about her body, he cared about her body.
Kent disagreed. "Why are you here? Get out of the way..."
No sooner had Kent said that than the door of the private box was banged open.
It's not that someone pushed the door open in a normal way, or that someone went into the wrong room because as soon as the door was banged open, a strange woman suddenly fell with a flop. She was followed by two fierce men who chased her in and dragged her out, while one of the men smiled awkwardly, apologizing to the people in the room.
"Sorry to interrupt you, everyone. My girlfriend got drunk and went to the wrong room, and I'm so sorry. You go on, while I'll take her away immediately..."
