Sometime later at night, Xiao Lei was at a BBQ restaurant with the rest of the crew, and she was surprised that the director had actually booked the entire restaurant for the dinner party.
"Come on, Ms. Xiao, have some beer with us," said one of the male crew members. He quickly poured a glass of beer and handed it to her. When Xiao Lei was hesitant to take it, his expression soured a little as he said, "Come on, just a glass. It's clean!"
Xiao Lei smiled gently and shook her head. "I'm sorry, but I don't really like to drink."
"Ah, come on!" the male crew said with a loud sigh. Perhaps because he was somewhat drunk, he raised his voice as he said, "I know I'm just a lowly worker, but we have been working together for a while now. You won't even give me face?"
"I'm sorry," Xiao Lei said as she tried to diffuse the tension. "I'm just not into drinking..."
