Are you trying to force me to become a star?

Chapter 65 Alcohol Tolerance

"Teacher Lin Yuan, I hope you can get some rest and not be too stressed."

"Teacher Lin Yuan, please take your time writing. I'll wait patiently."

"Teacher Lin Yuan, where did you go for the National Day holiday? Hoping to bump into you. (Happy emoji)"

"..."

"Lin Yuan, even the donkeys in the production team don't dare to rest like this."

"Lin Yuan, it's been three days already. You're not planning on having a seven-day National Day holiday, are you?"

"Lin Yuan, I have never seen a novelist who can spend the entire National Day holiday in one day."

"..."

"Old thief Lin Yuan, I hope you can update properly and stop being so arrogant."

"Lin Yuan, you old scoundrel, hurry up and write it! I can't wait any longer!"

"Hey Lin Yuan, where did you go for the National Day holiday? Hope we can bump into each other. (smiling emoji)"

"..."

After finishing her Tai Chi practice for the day, Xu Jinyan leisurely returned to the dining table and sat down.

Spread a small amount of yogurt on toast, add a boiled egg, cherry tomatoes, blueberries, and finally some nuts, and a breakfast ends up being just like that.

Looking at the clear sky, he couldn't help but stretch. What a day full of energy!

He finished writing the entire novel during this holiday, but it hasn't been published yet.

Open the system:

[Positive Emotion Score: 900, 0000]

[Negative Emotion Value: 740, 0000];

Through his observations and statistics over the past few days, starting from the first day of the holiday, the negative emotion values ​​received by the system were 20, 40, 80, 160 million, 320 million, 80, and 20, totaling 720 million.

Of course, he also stirred up emotions and fueled the fire in various reader group chats during this process.

After the negative sentiment reached its peak on October 5th, people stopped having any expectations for the National Day update.

That's all I gained from the whole holiday.

Today is the first day back to work. Although not updating might bring huge benefits, I will still try my best not to disappoint my readers!

Sometimes, once a heart is cold, it can never be warmed up again. Lin Yuan wanted to take a full vacation, and although everyone grumbled and complained, they could still understand and accept it.

But Lin Yuan must not be arrogant because of his talent; no one can live without reading novels.

Moreover, he intends to do business for the long term.

Therefore, he plans to resume updates today.

Not only that, he'll also release a massive update to soothe everyone's wounded hearts.

—So that it can withstand the next "damage".

……

……

"Cheers!"

A group of friends were having a small gathering at a restaurant near the Zhonghai Chedun Film and Television Base.

after awhile.

Xu Jinyan pushed open the door and came in, first apologizing, "Sorry I'm late, I didn't expect it to be so congested today."

"It's okay, it's okay, we've only just begun." Xiaotian skipped over to greet them, her joy overflowing.

Today is a get-together for several actors from their film crew; they're planning to invite a few friends over.

That's quite normal. After all, only a small number of people in the entertainment industry have actually worked together. Most people get to know each other through introductions from friends or at these kinds of dinner parties.

Today is the seventh day since the novel resumed updating. Xu Jinyan was chatting with her friends in a group of haters when she received an invitation from Xiao Tian.

After taking her seat, Xu Jinyan smiled and greeted the familiar celebrities.

Just then, a cheerful voice rang out: "Those who are late have to punish themselves with three drinks!"

[Negative emotions from Chen Feiyu: +299]

Xu Jinyan looked over with some surprise and asked, "Is that Mr. Arthur ahead?"

Tian Xiwei was displeased; this guy always liked to show off and act cool on set, but she still laughed heartily and said, "I'll do it, I'll do it."

Xu Jinyan snatched the wine glass from her hand and laughed, "You want to sneak a sip and drink my wine?"

Then he “drank” three cups in a row.

Putting down his glass, Xu Jinyan was in a good mood. Now, which singer would dare to force him to drink? Only actors would dare to do that. They don't take Xu Jinyan seriously at all.

"Impressive drinking capacity!"

Everyone at the table applauded and cheered when they saw Xu Jinyan drink three cups in a row without turning red or out of breath.

Guan Xiaotong, who was on set, asked curiously, "Xu Jinyan, how much alcohol can you drink?"

Seeing that everyone was looking over, Xu Jinyan held up four fingers.

Looking at the strange gesture, they guessed, "Four jin?"

Xu Jinyan smiled slightly: "No middle finger, drink!"

"Ha ha ha ha"

This answer made everyone laugh.

Lu Han, whom Guan Xiaotong brought along, laughed the loudest. She immediately found Xu Jinyan interesting: "Then we'll have to have a contest today."

Li Yitong nudged Xiaotian and whispered in her ear, "Still savoring it? It was just touching hands, wasn't it?"

Tian Xiwei's face immediately flushed red. When Xu Jinyan snatched the wine glass, he was holding her hand, which made her heart race. She was secretly delighted: she had held his hand too, and today was already worth it.

I just didn't expect Li Yitong to be observing so carefully from the side.

She glared at her, whispered something to her for a while, and when she looked at Xu Jinyan again, she found that Xu Jinyan had already started drinking with them.

Tian Xiwei quickly put some food on his plate: "Drink slowly, eat something first."

[Negative emotions from Chen Feiyu: +399]

"Don't worry, I'm fine," Xu Jinyan said, taking the advice and putting down her wine glass. After all, none of the men present were going to leave alive today.

Then, he leaned close to Xiaotian's ear and whispered, "Isn't that Chen Feiyu annoying? Watch me drink him under the table today."

Xiao Tian blushed slightly. Had he noticed something? Was he unhappy?

Then she saw Xu Jinyan start talking to a group of actors about movies and TV series, and she especially praised director Chen Kaige's film art.

[Positive emotions from Chen Feiyu: +199];

Xu Jinyan was somewhat surprised; this child was too easy to coax.

Chen Feiyu wore a reserved smile; he simply loved it when people praised his father.

He even stood up and raised his glass, saying:

"I also greatly admire your music. I hear in it Rilke's loneliness, the sense of destiny in Márquez's writing, and the delicate reminiscence of Proust's Memories of Bygone Days..."

Listening to his eloquent speech, everyone was stunned. Is this what an artistic family upbringing produces?

Looking at the proud expression on his face, Xu Jinyan couldn't help but sigh: What does it mean to be a semi-colonial and semi-feudal family?

A simple home-cooked meal, half of modern history!

He solemnly raised his glass and downed it in one gulp. This time he really drank it all; he didn't cheat.

"Arthur, please have a seat!"

"Have you heard of my name?" Chen Feiyu asked curiously after sitting down.

"It's a household name." Xu Jinyan nodded.

After all, this is your masterpiece.

Next, the others at the table saw Xu Jinyan drinking with Chen Feiyu.

As a pampered young master, Chen Feiyu was completely unable to resist Xu Jinyan's persuasive drinking tactics.

At first, everyone thought Xu Jinyan was trying to flatter Director Chen, but later they realized that she was just trying to get him drunk.

Wang Yanlin, who was standing to the side, clicked his tongue in amazement. Wasn't Xu Jinyan supposed to be a college student yet? How come she could spout such eloquent phrases?

Xu Jinyan: I was a professional hostess in my past life.

At first, Chen Feiyu thought Xu Jinyan was trying to befriend his father, but he gradually realized that Xu Jinyan was after him.

With so many people watching, he couldn't very well refuse. It wasn't just a matter of politeness; it also involved a man's pride.

Especially in front of several pretty girls present.

As everyone got more and more excited, he drank more and more.

By the end, his eyes were glazed over. He stopped Xu Jinyan from drinking more, grabbed Xu Jinyan's hand, and said with a wry smile, "Brother, I was wrong. Please forgive me this time."

Xu Jinyan slammed her wine glass on the table: I hate apologizing afterwards the most!
