"Alcohol? Where's the alcohol?"
As soon as he sat down, Liu Renchun began clamoring for a drink, pounding the table so hard it echoed. He had lost money and was in a foul mood, looking for a place to vent.
In China, a meal without alcohol is considered incomplete. Li Xianglan had taken the money and bought only food, forgetting to buy any alcohol.
"Oh dear, it seems I forgot to buy alcohol. Is there a convenience store in the village? I'll go buy a few bottles," Gu Xixi said. As the host, it was natural for her to try to fulfill her guests' requests.
Jiang Xiaobai said, "Chief Gu, no need to buy any. I have several bottles of fine liquor in the trunk of my car. I'll get them for everyone to enjoy."
After leaving Jin Nanhui's club last time, Jin Nanhui gave Jiang Xiaobai several bottles of fine liquor. Jiang Xiaobai didn't usually drink, so those bottles were still in the trunk, untouched.
