Trembling At A High Altitude

After sending Doctor Ai and Chen Lei away, Li Teng felt dull.

It seems that I have been hollowed out.

For a while, I couldn't even find the state to draw comics.

From last night to this morning, I was so tired.

Li Teng decided to take a nap and recover, otherwise his body would collapse sooner or later.

Just as he was about to go to bed, the editor called and told him that he had received a royalties and asked Li Teng to log in to WeChat.

After Li Teng logged into WeChat, the editor transferred the money to him.

Five thousand dollars!

"So many?" Li Teng was a little surprised.

"Is that too much? Then back off a little bit," the editor joked.

"It's not too much." Li Teng said with a haha ​​expression.

"Come on, your comics are very popular here, draw more while you're in good shape." The editor encouraged Li Teng.

"Uh-huh."

Although I feel very happy after taking the money, I also want to paint a few more paintings.

However, after struggling all morning, Li Tengru finally felt uninterested and couldn't find his state of mind, so he decided to take a nap before talking.

…

I don’t know how long it took.

Li Teng was woken up by the ringing of his cell phone.

I grabbed it and saw that it was Mother Li who was calling.

"Oops!"

Li Teng slapped his forehead. He seemed to have forgotten something important.

"Did you contact Yinyin yesterday?"

As expected, Mother Li called to ask about this matter.

"Contacted." Li Teng lied bravely.

"What did she say?" Mother Li asked.

"I haven't replied yet." Li Teng continued to lie.

"You didn't contact her, right?" Mother Li felt that Li Teng was lying.

"How could it be? She really didn't reply to me." Li Teng said harshly.

"Then please send me a screenshot of your chat with her now." Mother Li asked for verification.

"..."

"Do you really want your mother to age ten years suddenly?" Mother Li was heartbroken.

"I'll contact her now and give you a screenshot later." Li Teng quickly comforted Mother Li.

"Okay, I'll wait."

After hanging up the phone with Li's mother, Li Teng had no choice but to send a message to Liu Yin.

"Are you still angry? Are you free today? Let's go out and sit for a while?"

Just when she was about to take a screenshot to send to Mother Li, Liu Yin replied.

"Okay, where are you? I'll pick you up."

"You don't need to pick me up. Make an appointment and I'll go by myself."

"Then where did you say you were going?"

Li Teng looked at the time... now... it's almost five o'clock in the afternoon? Have you slept for so long?

It’s dinner time! Wouldn't it be better to ask her out than to go to dinner?

"Go to Liuyun Hotel, I'll treat you to dinner." Li Teng thought for a while and thought of a place.

If you ask such a rich second-generation girl out for dinner, you can't take her to eat snacks, right?

He had just earned five thousand yuan, so there was no problem in going to Liuyun to treat him to a meal.

"Okay." Liu Yin agreed.

After finishing it, Li Teng sent the screenshot of the conversation to Li's mother.

"I'll just tell you! It's you! Take the initiative to contact her, maybe now that you have children, you won't listen no matter what you say!" Mother Li was obviously very happy.

"Mom, you..." Li Teng was speechless. He couldn't have a child so soon, right?

"Are you inviting her to dinner at the Liuyun Hotel? It's very expensive there. Do you have that much money? Can I transfer some money to you?" Mother Li was a little worried.

"No, I have money. I made money recently." Li Teng replied.

"Have you made money? How did you make money? Have you earned enough to go to Liuyun Hotel for dinner? Are you drawing those harmful cartoons again?" Mother Li asked warily.

"I didn't draw cartoons that harm people, I drew cartoons that harmed Japanese..." Li Teng defended.

"Are you really drawing comics again?"

"Mom, please leave it alone, I didn't do anything illegal." Li Teng was helpless.

"Don't do anything for money. As long as you take care of Yin Yin and become a son-in-law to their family, you still worry about having no money to spend in the future? Why are you so ignorant?" Mother Li blamed.

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

"By the way, you and Yinyin are dining at the Liuyun Hotel. Just indicate it when you pay the bill. Yinyin's character will definitely rush to pay the bill. You don't have to fight with her." Mother Li thought for a while and added a few words. sentence.

"..." Li Teng was speechless.

"Forget it, let's not talk about you. You can grasp it yourself. This is a major opportunity in your life."

"Know."

…

Liuyun Hotel.

Originally, Li Teng wanted to eat at the buffet.

Although 888 per person for the buffet seems expensive, it can at least be capped and costs less than 1,800 yuan for two people.

This is not necessarily the case when ordering food. With the standards of Liuyun Hotel, a bottle of wine or a plate of food may exceed this price.

But Liu Yin didn’t want to eat at the buffet.

Li Teng had no choice but to take her to find a private room.

"I'm treating you to a treat, please keep an eye on it."

Li Teng gave Liu Yin the menu.

Liu Yin ordered four dishes at random.

The total cost is only over five hundred yuan.

Li Teng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Would you like a drink?" the waiter asked.

"No, she doesn't drink." Li Teng smiled at the waiter.

"Sir, I'm sorry, I have to tell you something. This private room has a minimum consumption of 3888 yuan." The waiter said to Li Teng.

"Ah? Then..." Li Teng originally wanted to question whether this was the overlord's clause, but considering that he would lose face in front of Liu Yin, he endured it and decided not to talk about it.

"Then order a bottle of red wine? Do you drink red wine?" Li Teng tried to ask Liu Yin.

"Okay." Liu Yin nodded.

"What kind of red wine would you like to drink?" Li Teng flipped the menu to the drinks and handed it to Liu Yin.

"Just drink this. Mom likes to drink this kind of wine. I have also drank it. It tastes very good. You can try it." Liu Yin looked at the menu and quickly pointed to a wine.

Li Teng looked at the price of the wine... 18,888 yuan.

"One thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight? You still have enough money with you." Li Teng calculated silently.

"Something seems not right...are the next few 8's here?" Li Teng did the math again.

Depend on! Are you bullying me for not being good at math?

Li Teng's expression changed drastically.

The waiter glanced at Li Teng secretly and noticed that Li Teng's expression was not right. There was a hint of contempt and gloating on his face, and he turned around and walked out of the private room with the menu.

He took his girlfriend to the Liuyun Hotel to ask for a private room, slapped his face on her face and pretended to be fat. After spending the money, she was dumbfounded. They have seen this kind of thing before, and it seems that someone is going to be unlucky again today.

Of course, they didn't have to worry about whether Li Teng could afford it. As long as the wine was consumed, the hotel would have a way to make customers pay.

Soon, the dishes they ordered were delivered.

The waiter opened the cork of the red wine bottle and poured half a glass of red wine into each of their glasses.

"What happened at the cinema last time..." Li Teng took the initiative to bring up a topic.

"It's okay, I'm not angry. I know you are just for a moment..."

"No, I did it on purpose, to make you angry." Li Teng didn't let Liu Yin finish.

"..." Liu Yin didn't know what to say.

"If you continue to date me, I may do even more extreme things to you." Li Teng added a few words.

Liu Yin fell silent and drank the red wine by herself.

"Why did you agree to date me? What advantages do you see in me? Don't talk to me about anything. A rich second-generation girl like you and I are not from the same family. We have nothing in common, let alone any feelings. Basically, for what purpose are you dating me?" Li Teng drank the red wine in his hand and looked at Liu Yin.

"I didn't take the initiative, it was your mother who took the initiative to find me." Liu Yin corrected.

"Haha, don't you think this explanation is weak?" Li Teng was annoyed.

To be honest, he really liked the girl in front of him.

A man! Who doesn’t like cute and pretty girls? What's more, she is the daughter of the richest man in the city.

But when he thought of her, Li Teng had to connect all this with conspiracy.

Liu Yin stopped talking and continued drinking red wine.

"Do you know Shen Mengying?" Li Teng asked Liu Yin another question.

"I don't know." Liu Yin was stunned, then shook her head.

"Her family is also very rich. She is ranked high in He City, right? She also approached me a few days ago and wanted to date me and be my girlfriend." Li Teng said while observing Liu Yin's performance.

Liu Yin lowered her head. After hearing what Li Teng said, her body trembled obviously, but she pretended to be fine and continued drinking red wine.

"Is there any conflict between her and you? She knew you were dating me, so you deliberately stepped in?" Li Teng continued to test.

"I don't know her." Liu Yin shook her head again.

"But you and her, a rich second-generation girl like you, are trying to date a poor boy like me. Is there any conspiracy behind this? What do you want to achieve? Why don't you tell me directly and I will help you. ." Li Teng continued to question Liu Yin.

"Stop saying I'm a rich second generation! My dad doesn't like me at all! He doesn't regard me as his daughter at all!" Liu Yin suddenly yelled a few times, and then put her fingers into her hair.

Li Teng was a little stunned.

Will Liu Yin, who has always looked so cute, get angry?

Liu Yin drank the red wine in the glass in one gulp, and then poured another glass.

Realizing that Liu Yin's face was not very pretty, Li Teng stopped talking and started eating the food himself.

After a while, Li Teng found that Liu Yin's cup was empty, and he was about to pour himself another cup.

"What are you doing? Can you drink it?" Li Teng reached out and grabbed the bottle.

"I can drink well!" Liu Yin pushed Li Teng's hand away and poured herself another glass.

In a short time, she drank up a bottle of red wine.

"Waiter, have another bottle." Liu Yin said to the waiter.

"Okay." The waiter quickly opened another bottle, and then looked at Li Teng with gloating.

"How about drinking to drown your sorrows?" Li Teng felt that Liu Yin's mood was not right.

Liu Yin didn't say anything, just drank one cup after another. She seemed to have a good drinker.

"A girl who likes drinking is not suitable to be a girlfriend." Li Teng mused.

But Liu Yin's drinking capacity is obviously not as good as she said.

After three bottles, she just lay down on the table and stopped moving.

"Are you okay?" Li Teng had no choice but to sit next to her and help her up.

If something goes wrong with her drinking, he has no evidence to prove that he will be held responsible if he did not persuade her to drink.

"I'm fine." Liu Yin smiled at Li Teng and fell limply into his arms.

"This...I don't like drunk girls..." Li Teng frowned.

There was no way she could go home on her own in this condition.

Li Teng thought that it would be hard for him to send her home.

At first he didn't know where her home was.

Secondly, if the Liu family knew that she was drunk with him, he would not be able to bear the blame.

The main thing is that his sister Anna is still treating her legs in the Liu family's company! He was hoping to stand up this time. If they were angry with Anna, it would be troublesome if the prosthetic leg was not finished half-finished.

Li Teng decided to book a room in Liuyun Hotel and let her sober up first. After she sobered up, he would take her home.

"Sir, please settle the bill." The waiter stopped Li Teng who was about to leave with Liu Yin in his arms.

"Oh, I'm sorry...how much is it?" Li Teng had to stop.

"The total is fifty-seven thousand, two hundred and five." The waiter answered Li Teng.

"Fifty-seven thousand?" Li Teng rolled his eyes.

"Yes, there is another two hundred and fifty." The waiter added.

"I don't have that much money with me..." Li Teng frowned.

"Sir, you can swipe your card or scan the QR code to pay." The waiter tried not to show his gloating expression.

"I included all my money, it's not that much... let's do this, I'll book a room in your hotel, you include the meal cost, and I'll pay it when I leave." Li Teng thought about it. a solution.

"No, sir, the restaurant and accommodation are settled separately." The waiter immediately rejected Li Teng.

"Do I have to pay now?"

"Yes, sir."

Li Teng frowned.

What should I do?

He glanced at Liu Yin in his arms.

Already fast asleep.

Borrow it from Mother Li? She doesn’t have that much money on hand! And didn’t she say that? Just pretend to pay the bill and let Yinyin grab it.

The problem is...Yinyin can't pay the bill now?

Li Teng had no choice but to sit back in his seat, holding Liu Yin in one hand and looking through WeChat with his cell phone in the other to see who he could borrow money from at this time.

As a homebody who doesn't like to deal with things, I have never borrowed money from anyone in my life.

"Teng Shen? Why did you suddenly borrow such a large amount of money?" The editor asked in surprise after being called by Li Teng.

"I had dinner with friends and ordered three bottles of wine, one bottle cost 18,888 yuan." Li Teng told the editor truthfully and wanted to see if he could advance some money.

"I don't have any money now. You know I'm in a foreign country. If you need it urgently, I can lend you two thousand... Who are you having dinner with? Why do you drink such expensive wine? Are you young? Female "?" the editor asked.

"You're so awesome! You guessed it right!" Li Teng laughed awkwardly.

"You must have been deceived, right? This kind of scam where a bartender claims to be a virgin and then orders expensive drinks to get a commission is widespread! Teng Shen, you are so smart and yet you have been deceived. ? Call the police quickly!" The editor expressed deep sympathy for Li Teng's experience.

"No, let's talk about it later." Li Teng hung up the phone.

Then he called Aisha's mobile phone.

Never answered.

Elsa may have left her phone somewhere again.

The waiter could no longer hide the gloating expression on his face.

Li Teng continued to search through his address book and WeChat.

Finally found another name: Shen Mengying.
