Chapter: 2917

He Yuanjiang hurriedly said: "Oh no, Mr. Hong, I don't have such a large capacity for drinking at my age, when I was younger I could drink about one liter, but now six or seven catty is the limit, let alone this high-proof wine, I estimate I can only drink half a liter at most..."

Hong Wu smiled and said: "Professor He, although the wine has a high proof, you can just open up and enjoy a few cups!"

He Yuanjiang's mood was exceptionally good, exclaiming: "Good! Then let's have a few more cups!"

Ye Chen listened and immediately poured himself and Professor He each a cup of white wine, then instructed Hong Wu: "Hong Wu, please prepare some drinks for Miss He."

Hong Wu was about to go get it when Professor He suddenly spoke up: "Know Autumn, Ye Chen is your savior, you should also drink a bit, perfect timing to toast him a few cups later!"

Know Autumn hesitated slightly before nodding and saying: "Okay, Dad."

Ye Chen hurriedly said: "Know Autumn hasn't fully rested yet, I think white wine is enough for now, Hong Wu, go get a bottle of red wine instead."

Hong Wu busily said, "Alright, Professor Ye, I'll go right away."

Know Autumn looked at Ye Chen with gratitude and said, "Professor He, I'll toast you a few cups later using red wine!"

Ye Chen smiled and said, "We're equals from now on. Just call me by my name in the future, no need to be so formal."

Know Autumn nodded slightly and said, "Then in our working relationship, I'll address you as Professor He, but privately, just call you by your name."

Ye Chen chuckled without saying anything more.

After Hong Wu brought over the red wine, He Yuanjiang stood up, cupped his hands together, and said to Ye Chen, "Ye Chen, this young lady is my only descendant, and I'll drink with her and Know Autumn to thank you for saving our lives!"

Ye Chen quickly got up and cupped his hands together, saying, "He Uncle's words are too heavy. Thank you's not needed; it's all in the wine."

He Yuanjiang immediately said, "That's right! It's all in the wine. Come, let me take a sip first as a toast!"

He Yuanjiang was indeed very joyful today.

Not only did his only daughter escape danger, but she returned safely to his side.

What's more important is that this time around, she will definitely understand the risks and dangers of the world and won't blindly pursue unrealistic ideals like before.

And his daughter has already agreed to stay with Ye Chen, which means he can spend a long time living in Jinling with her, safe and carefree.

Feeling joyful, I naturally had a few extra cups.

After three rounds of wine, He Yuanjiang was somewhat intoxicated.

He kept thanking Ye Chen, finally focusing on his daughter's affairs.

Looking at his daughter with eyes that were 3/4 drunk and 7/10 fond, he sighed: "Know Autumn, you and Ye Chen are roughly the same age. However, Ye Chen has been married for four years now; it's time for you to focus on your personal issues as well."

Know Autumn had a small half-bottle of red wine, although she wasn't drunk yet, her cheeks were already flushed with a few hints of rosiness.

When she heard her father suddenly start worrying about her lifelong affairs again, she felt embarrassed and said: "Dad... there's no need to be in such a hurry. I have many friends around me, like my current age still studying in school, even if I get married at 30 or so, it won't be a problem." JrNovels.com
