Chapter 279: Chapter 279 News

Zhao Tong had two bottles of beer and started talking nonstop.

He talked about the past, the present, and the future.

Jiang Li just listened quietly, though he felt that Zhao Tong really became too chatty when drunk.

Still, he was a chatty person with a clear train of thought and no blurred memory—otherwise, how could he articulate so many events from the past six years so clearly?

Caught in Zhao Tong’s incessant chatter, Jiang Li revisited the six years he had known Ying Xi.

Had it really been six years?

The sixth year he knew Ying Heng, Ying Heng died.

The sixth year he knew Ying Xi, Ying Xi broke off their relationship.

Jiang Li felt that his luck in life was probably not that great.

"...right?" Zhao Tong, who had been rambling on his own, rarely asked Jiang Li anything.

Jiang Li was a bit distracted, and when Zhao Tong suddenly asked, he didn’t catch it, "Huh? What?"

Zhao Tong didn’t get upset at his distraction and repeated, "I said, Ying Xi hasn’t been feeling well. I was supposed to accompany my nephew to Three Gardens to relax together. But now that won’t work, my sister and her boyfriend are taking my nephew there, and there is no role for me. I can’t possibly go and add more light to their outing as the third wheel. Right?"

Jiang Li was taken aback, the message in those words was quite loaded; Zhao Tong must have really drunk too much.

Although Jiang Li was very anxious about his own issues, he still remembered the information in Zhao Tong’s words.

Jiang Li nodded, "Oh, yes, it really isn’t appropriate."

"Exactly, it’s not appropriate. Ah, now I don’t even know how to cheer Ying Xi up..." Zhao Tong said as he waved his hand and stood up, grabbing the last empty bottle.

"That’s it, I won’t keep you any longer, I’m heading off, you should go back and rest too. Staying here is useless, you should either go up directly or just go back to rest, he won’t be coming down. He’s like a tree that has grown in that empty house..."

Jiang Li nodded, "Yeah, thank you. Drive safely."
