I Became the Eye Candy: Four Bigshots Claimed to be My Dad?-Chapter 62: Immortal’s Intoxication Truly Lives Up to Its Reputation

The two of them went up to the fourth floor, and Zhan Chi ordered a table full of the restaurant’s signature dishes.

Ye Qianning hadn’t said a word since they entered the restaurant. She thought Sang Zhi looked like someone she knew.

Not someone from this era, but a person from the memories of her past life. Her head had been injured because of her special ability when she was very young, so some of her memories were unclear.

The way Sang Zhi had looked up just now seemed to overlap with one of those images. She couldn’t tell if it was just a trick of her mind or if she had forgotten something from her past life.

Zhan Chi noticed Ye Qianning’s silence and assumed she was missing her mother. Remembering what she’d said earlier, his heart ached for her a little.

"Don’t worry. If anyone ever bullies you, just tell me. I’ll take care of them for you."

Ye Qianning snapped out of her thoughts and said calmly, "If anyone bullies me, I’ll beat them so hard they’ll regret the day they were born."

Zhan Chi’s face filled with admiration. "That’s right. You’ve got a personality a lot like mine."

"Give me a break. I can take after anyone but you. You’re not my dad," Ye Qianning huffed, picking up her chopsticks and starting to eat.

Zhan Chi was left speechless, and it was an awful feeling. ’Now that I think about it,’ he mused, ’we never did a blood-drop kinship test. There’s a good chance this chubby little girl is actually related to me.’

Ye Qianning thought that Immortal’s Drunkenness truly lived up to its name as the best restaurant in the Capital City. The food was on par with anything from the nation’s finest chefs.

"Waiter, bring us a jug of Immortal’s Drunkenness."

’Now to see if the liquor is any good.’

"Right away! One jug of Immortal’s Drunkenness for the Tianzi Private Room!" an attendant shouted from outside the door. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

"You’re going to drink?" Zhan Chi was aghast.

"Just a taste."

"Absolutely not. Immortal’s Drunkenness is too strong; kids can’t touch it." As irresponsible as Zhan Chi could be, he wouldn’t stand by and watch a little girl drink alcohol. Boys, of course, were a different story.

Ye Qianning simply continued eating her food.

Zhan Chi had never liked children to begin with. But after spending time with Ye Qianning, it wasn’t that he disliked her anymore. He just didn’t understand her at all!

’Are all children this unreasonable?’

"Your Immortal’s Drunkenness is here." The waiter knocked and entered.

Ye Qianning’s eyes lit up.

Zhan Chi snatched the jug of Immortal’s Drunkenness and clutched it to his chest. "You are not drinking this."

"Just a sniff," Ye Qianning said with a frown.

"No."

"Then don’t ask me to eat with you ever again." ’A meal without wine? What kind of invitation is that?’

"Fine... just a sniff?"

"Mm," Ye Qianning nodded.

Zhan Chi opened the Immortal’s Drunkenness and poured some into a cup. He was afraid Ye Qianning would actually drink it, so he kept a tight grip on the cup as he held it up to her nose.

Ye Qianning was a connoisseur of fine spirits. As the aroma of the Immortal’s Drunkenness wafted into her nose, she could tell from the rich fragrance alone that the liquor would be sweet and smooth on the tongue, followed by a potent, fiery kick.

BANG!

The door to the room was kicked open, and Xiang Minghou burst in like a storm.

He took one look, and his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. He saw Zhan Chi holding a wine cup, trying to pour liquor down his daughter’s throat!

Zhan Chi, still holding the cup, froze. He turned to look at the furious man. ’If I tell him I was just letting the chubby girl get a whiff,’ he wondered, ’will he believe me?’

"Zhan Chi, I’ll skin you alive!" Xiang Minghou roared, lunging at him.

Zhan Chi dodged the attack with a flying leap, his conscience screaming.

"Xiang Minghou, calm down! Calm down! It’s not what it looks like!"

"Calm down, my ass! You dare try to get my daughter drunk? I’m going to beat you to death!" Xiang Minghou was consumed by rage, each of his strikes ruthless and deadly.

Zhan Chi was no match for Xiang Minghou and could only dodge frantically. "I told you, it’s not what it looks like! Little fatty, say something—!"

Seizing the opportunity, Ye Qianning downed the small cup of liquor. It was pure bliss. Immortal’s Drunkenness truly lived up to its name.

"..."

Zhan Chi was speechless. He darted out the window, and Xiang Minghou followed in hot pursuit. The two of them fought their way from the private room all the way down to the street.
