Kung Fu Baby with 17 Doting Brothers-Chapter 571: Tricking Third Senior Brother

Tuanzi’s face is full of curiosity.

It’s her first time seeing her third senior brother drunk, and she feels it’s very novel, interesting, and she really wants to poke his face.

[Ancient Martial System: If he truly likes drinking but usually doesn’t, it shows restraint. So why did he suddenly drink so much today?]

Among the senior brothers, the system feels most at ease with this cold-faced third senior brother. He is highly skilled in martial arts, calm, restrained, and very protective of the host. Although Duan Xiayou and Ji Zhangzhuo also protect the host, the former is too lazy, and the latter is too scheming. As for Li Zhou, the system is not familiar with him yet and decides to observe more.

When outside, with Tantai Yi’s caution, it is impossible to let himself get drunk.

[Ancient Martial System: Either you watch over him, or let someone else watch over him. Go find out; he wouldn’t suddenly indulge himself like this.]

Tuanzi quickly called Li Zhou over, not forgetting to prepare a few plates of food for him in the meantime.

Seeing Tantai Yi’s appearance, Li Zhou also felt it was novel, always having the sense of an otherworldly immortal tainted by earthly smoke and fire.

Tuanzi was busy, hurriedly taking her short legs to find Wen Li.

"Cousin, did you see who just spoke with the third senior brother?"

In anger, her features were scrunched together, and the soft flesh of her cheeks trembled slightly.

Wen Li couldn’t help but pinch her cheek, while his gaze fell on Tantai Yi nearby, noticing his drunken stupor and instinctively drinking more, his brow furrowed slightly.

If it were in private, he might tease a bit, but now it was a formal occasion. Who dared target his sister’s senior brother at his own celebration banquet?

Wen Li, more perceptive than Tuanzi, quickly identified the suspicious target and directly took his angry sister to confront him.

An ordinary-looking man was nervously clutching a wine glass, the other hand incessantly rubbing the one holding the glass.

He occasionally glanced guiltily in a certain direction, then quickly looked down.

Tuanzi approached and noticed slight frostbite marks on the back of the man’s hand.

In such hot weather, getting frostbite is extremely difficult, meaning there’s only one truth.

Her gaze instantly sharpened, as if turning into blades slicing toward this person.

[Miaomiao: Anyone plotting against my senior brother is a bad person! Miaomiao wants to defeat the bad guy!]

Du Zhe sat uneasily in the chair, his eyes darting around, and a shadow fell over him as an angry little girl appeared in his view.

The little girl clenched her fists, glaring at him with fierce innocence.

He was so frightened he leaned back.

"You feel guilty!"

Tuanzi reprimanded, "Speak, why did you plot against my senior brother?"

She threatened, waving her little fists.

As a writer immersed in his work with little other interest, Du Zhe truly did not know Tuanzi’s identity or Tantai Yi’s relationship with her.

"Your senior brother?"

"The super handsome one!"

Tuanzi pointed at the tipsy Tantai Yi.

Du Zhe’s face immediately flushed. He hurriedly stood up to explain, "I didn’t mean it. I thought it was juice when I invited him to drink."

The celebration banquet had prepared a lot of alcohol, different varieties, all very tempting in appearance.

"Besides, the alcohol content isn’t high," Du Zhe lifted the glass in his hand, "I also drank a few glasses with no problem, but he..."

Du Zhe awkwardly recalled the recent events.

He overcame his inner fear, proactively engaging with Tantai Yi and invited him to have some juice.

They drank a few sips without realizing it was alcohol.

Only when Tantai Yi’s cheeks turned rosy did Du Zhe realize something was wrong and tried to snatch the glass from him, but ended up being attacked.

"After that, he just kept drinking one cup after another, exuding cold air from his whole body, so I stayed away."

Tuanzi looked at him skeptically.

Wen Li seriously examined that glass of wine, helplessly holding his forehead.

"This wine has the highest alcohol content, specially blended, barely smelling of alcohol but with a strong aftereffect."

"Is, is that so?" Du Zhe was even more embarrassed. He didn’t drink often and was surprised to find his alcohol tolerance wasn’t bad.

As he spoke, he turned aside uncomfortably, as though the little girl’s gaze before him could pierce through him.

Tuanzi was still suspicious of him.

[Miaomiao: How could the clever, alert third senior brother be deceived by wine disguised as juice?]

[Ancient Martial System: But think, your senior brother was always in ancient times. Did they have such orange or blue mixed drinks back then? It indeed looks more like juice.]

That statement sounded a bit plausible.

But Tuanzi still wouldn’t let him off, "Why did you suddenly talk to my senior brother? You didn’t know each other before, did you?"

Wen Li knew this writer, they exchanged works privately, and he remembered this person was not good at socializing and chose to become a professional writer due to social anxiety.

A socially anxious person wouldn’t initiate contact unless necessary, so he too was suspicious of the man’s intentions.

Under the joint scrutiny of the large and small duo, Du Zhe was practically shriveling into his chair.

"I... I admit, when I first saw him..."

Tuanzi’s eyes widened. This line sounded so familiar; she seemed to have heard it in some drama.

"I got inspired," Du Zhe gasped, "wanted to write a novel with him as the protagonist, so, so I tried to interact with him to understand his personality more, but, but..."

Du Zhe, tearfully, covered the frostbitten area on his hand, "I didn’t expect that drink had such a high alcohol content!"

He also didn’t expect the seemingly aloof Tantai Yi to have such a low tolerance, continuing to drink expressionlessly after getting drunk on a single glass.

This had the makings of a potential alcoholic.

Such a big contrast!

Tuanzi looked at him with a stern face, "Really?"

Du Zhe almost swore an oath.

"Really, really!" He wailed internally, Why does this little girl, so adorable, emit such a strong aura?

"It should be true."

Wen Li comforted his explosive sister, "I know him somewhat; he doesn’t have the guts."

Only then did Tuanzi cease her questioning.

Confirming that Tantai Yi was drunk, Wen Li had a waiter bring sobering soup.

Yet Tantai Yi refused to drink it, insisting on silently drinking alcohol.

"Is this considered good drinking behavior or not?"

Gu Li came over to watch, quietly mumbling.

"Whether it’s good or not, I don’t know," Gu Zhuo glanced at his worried sister, "I only know, his martial arts are the best, and even Miaomiao can’t deal with him. If he won’t drink, we can’t force him."

Tuanzi was extremely troubled but had no solution, so she could only allow Tantai Yi to keep drinking.

"So the senior brother behaves like this when drunk."

Tuanzi rubbed her face in frustration.

"Sigh, later will I have to tempt him onto the carriage with alcohol?"

She imagined a few scenarios.

Using vegetables to trick a rabbit into a cage. Using fish snacks to lure a cat into a cage. Using alcohol to trick her senior brother into a carriage to take him home.

"Hmm, come to think of it, that’s not a bad idea."
