By the time most of the guests had left, Li Qing was also pretty much drunk.
After that, he drank quite a bit of sobering soup and strong tea, but his vision was still hazy.
Gong Ge, who had been busy elsewhere, finally came over.
Seeing Gong Ge looking like a silly goose in formal attire, Li Qing said irritably, "Gong, you really screwed me over this time. How could you forget to tell me about the task Lü Zong assigned?"
Gong Ge wiped the sweat from his forehead and sat down next to Li Qing, "Brother, stop it, I got scolded enough today already. I didn't just forget to notify you, I forgot a lot of people."
"I always had a bad memory, and it gets even worse when I'm busy. Damn it, Lü Zong should never have let me handle this. You have no idea how busy I've been these days, I literally wanted to chop myself into pieces."
Li Qing said only one sentence, but it triggered a tirade of complaints from Gong Ge.
