Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2238
Although it did not produce much of an effect on him, he still pretended as though he was not good at drinking. He ceaselessly drew in cold air.
âGerald, it seems like youâre not very good at drinking.â Seeing Geraldâs appearance, Kai became much more confident.
âThatâs right. Iâm very weak at drinking. I basically get drunk after two to three glasses of wine.â Gerald echoed Kaiâs words and said so. In truth, that kind of wine did not affect him at all. The more he drank, the more he would just need to go and pee. He could even use his Herculean Primordial Spirit to evaporate the urine in his body.
âWeâre the same type of people. Then, letâs eat first!â Kai did not urge Gerald to drink more wine. If not, Gerald might feel that something was amiss.
Besides, Kai became not so anxious anymore after he learned about how much Gerald could drink.
After a meal, one at least needed to drink four to five glasses of wine.
âYouâre flattering me.â Gerald put down the wine glass and continued eating the food in front of him.
Kai just stared at him. After a short while, he could not help but ask, âBy the way, Gerald, what kind of relationship do you have with the Futaba family exactly? How come you help them so much when youâre a Westoner? Could it be that youâve fallen in love with Fujiko?â
âItâs just coincidental.â Gerald waved his hand and continued eating.
Hearing Geraldâs words that carried no meaning, Kai knew that he had made a vain attempt. Hence, he ceased talking.
Time passed, and Kai watched as Gerald ate endlessly. He then continued to make Gerald drink a few glasses of wine.
Gerald did not disappoint Kai either. After downing two glasses of wine consecutively, Gerald used the essential qi in his body to make his face look redder. He also pretended to be drunk in his actions.
âYoung Master, why do you have to deal with the Futaba family? Didnât your family maintain peace with them for hundreds of years? Or did someone from the Futaba family send the news to you secretly? If not, how did you know where Miss Futaba is?â
Gerald held his chin with one hand, and even the words he said were slightly incoherent. He looked like he was indeed drunk.
âHow is it possible that someone could have sent the news to us secretly? But it concerns my family, so I canât tell you about it.â Kai was stunned for a short while, but he revealed nothing.
âItâs fine if you donât tell me about it. I understand.â Waving his hand, Gerald replied.
âLetâs continue eating. Itâs my treat today. Eat and drink whatever you like. If itâs not enough, Iâll ask the waiter to serve you more!â Kai nodded. He felt that Gerald was terribly drunk.
After having another two mouthfuls of rice, Gerald threw away the spoon and pretended to be drunk.
He then directly lay prone on the table. Before long, one could hear his snores.
âGerald?â Seeing that scene, Kai was slightly helpless. Unexpectedly, he had not even drugged Gerald before the latter had sprawled over the table.
However, on the premise of knowing Geraldâs means, Kai did not lose his vigilance. He called out to Gerald a few times before he walked to him gently and called out to him again.
After Kai saw that Gerald made no response and movement, he stretched his hand out to pat Geraldâs back briefly.
âHeâs indeed bad at drinking. At first, I thought that it would be very troublesome, but I didnât expect that I would be able to settle him with such great ease!â Seeing that Gerald was indeed drunk, Kai broke into a smile. He had no scruples with his words now.
Gerald was bad at drinking. Kai knew that after four to five glasses of wine, which had an alcohol percentage of seventy percent, Gerald would not wake up even if the roof collapsed, let alone regain his consciousness. At least, he would sleep soundly for more than ten hours.
