Fate

There's a saying in traditional Chinese medicine called "like cures like," which has some truth to it and some not, but the idea that eating lamb kidneys can nourish the kidneys and benefit men does have some merit.

Liu Chang'an doesn't need to replenish his kidneys, but lamb kidneys are indeed delicious, as are similar lamb testicles, lamb liver, and lamb penis.

We don't usually eat much of it, since these things are still more expensive than pork.

In some places, people have a particular fondness for sheep, not only for their consumption but also as close companions. There were even sheep brothels in the Netherlands. Liu Chang'an often pondered the thought that if sheep that had worked in brothels ended up in the vegetable market, it would be a bit unsettling.

He didn't consider these issues when he ate lamb kidneys himself, and casually handed a string of lamb testicles to Bai Hui.

"Is this a roasted preserved egg? I like roasted preserved eggs. Qian Ning's family makes a lot of preserved eggs every year, and sometimes he roasts some and brings them to school." Bai Hui had just finished speaking when she hurriedly glanced at Liu Chang'an. Fortunately, he was focused on eating his skewers and didn't seem to hear what she was saying.

Bai Hui lowered her head and took a bite of the skewer Liu Chang'an handed her. It wasn't a grilled preserved egg, but it looked quite similar. It tasted good, though the flavor was a little strange, but acceptable. So Bai Hui ate a skewer.

"What is this?" Bai Hui asked, wiping her mouth after finishing her meal.

"Sheep's testicles," Zhong Qing said with a half-smile.

"Sheep can lay eggs?" Bai Hui asked, puzzled.

"The ram's **," Liu Chang'an explained.

Bai Hui felt nauseous and ran to the side to dig into her throat. After a while, she came back and glared angrily at Liu Chang'an.

"You should have said you weren't going to eat it earlier, it's such a waste," Liu Chang'an said regretfully. People always create so many psychological barriers for themselves.

"Are you doing this on purpose?" Bai Hui asked angrily. "I'll order you ten more skewers!"

"No, ten skewers aren't enough, two are enough. We won't be able to finish them all."

So Bai Hui ordered two skewers of sheep testicles for Liu Chang'an. Watching Liu Chang'an eat them, Liu Chang'an felt disgusted!

"Come on, let's drink." Zhong Qing opened two bottles of beer and gave one to Liu Chang'an.

Liu Chang'an was never afraid.

Seeing Liu Chang'an and Zhong Qing drinking like this, Bai Hui looked left and right, and said with some concern, "Don't get drunk, what will I do later?"

Bai Hui understood somewhat. Her cousin was actually still in a bad mood and wanted to drink herself into oblivion, but she had run into Liu Chang'an, so she had to call her over so that no one would take care of her if she got drunk.

Bai Hui didn't think Liu Chang'an would do anything to her drunk cousin. It's just that Liu Chang'an can sometimes give people a sense of security, but he can also do some puzzling things that are hard to understand. Since he's drunk and doesn't know what's going on, it's better to find a relative to take care of him.

But who knows? If I hadn't come, my sexy and mature cousin would have been very attractive to a guy like Liu Chang'an. Would he have taken advantage of me? Bai Hui thought about it, and all she could think about were the scenes in romance novels where the heroine gets drunk and has sex with the hero. She couldn't help but feel a little hot, so she quickly drank a glass of beer, which made her cheeks feel even hotter.

"Don't get drunk," Zhong Qing said to Bai Hui, her eyes slightly hazy after finishing a bottle of wine, her pupils reflecting the flickering lights along the riverbank. "But if you want to give Liu Chang'an a chance, you should drink more."

"Cousin, you're already talking nonsense!" Bai Hui scolded anxiously, glancing at Liu Chang'an as she spoke.

Liu Chang'an was focused on eating crayfish, seemingly oblivious to Bai Hui and Zhong Qing's conversation.

He must have heard her, Bai Hui thought. There were three people at the table, and her cousin was speaking so loudly, how could he not hear her?

That's fine, to avoid awkwardness, but Bai Hui felt that he should at least glance at her, regardless of his expression or gaze.

I still find Liu Chang'an annoying.

Zhong Qing opened another bottle, but didn't ask Liu Chang'an to drink with her. However, Liu Chang'an was very considerate and picked up a bottle to clink with Zhong Qing's.

"Can you drink?" Bai Hui sat there looking left and right, slowly peeling the shrimp and crab she liked to eat, while still worried. She was asking Liu Chang'an.

"I once went to a brewery and there was a misunderstanding. They thought I was some kind of spy trying to find out their secret recipe, so they locked me up in their cellar. But before they could release me, an army stormed into the brewery, and they forgot all about locking me up. So I just drank all their beer." Liu Chang'an said, looking at the beer bottle. "What's so special about that?"

"Look at you, so impressive! What kind of winery is that? You only have one bottle of wine in the cellar?" Bai Hui couldn't help but laugh at Liu Chang'an Chang'an's nonsense. She felt like she was back in high school when he was her deskmate, and she felt a little nostalgic... even though they had just graduated.

What she missed wasn't high school, but the time he sat next to her. This thought startled Bai Hui, and she immediately glared angrily at Liu Chang'an.

"Moutai, huh?" Liu Chang'an glanced at Bai Hui. "Why are you glaring at me?"

"It's nothing." Bai Hui shrugged, then said to Zhong Qing, "Cousin, Liu Chang'an is so annoying. When we were in Affiliated High School, I once wore a mask with a duck pattern on it, and he flipped to a page in his book that told a disgusting and lewd story about ducks, just to disgust me."

"I'm reading my book. You didn't sneakily flip through it, so why are you disgusted? You're the one who's accusing me first." Liu Chang'an laughed. So she really was disgusted.

"What disgusting and lewd stories do ducks have?" Zhong Qing asked uncertainly. "Professional male prostitutes? You guys are so wicked!"

"No, no!" Bai Hui stamped her foot under the table, her cheeks flushed, probably from drinking, and she was too embarrassed to explain.

Liu Chang'an and Zhong Qing continued drinking. After a while, Zhong Qing called the owner over to settle the bill. As soon as he paid, he slumped onto the table and didn't move.

Liu Chang'an and Bai Hui exchanged a glance, both somewhat surprised. They'd actually gotten drunk but hadn't forgotten to pay the bill before immediately collapsing into a drunken stupor?

"My cousin is an assistant. Aren't assistants usually responsible for settling accounts? So when she remembered that she hadn't done this task, her habit and willpower were still there, and she could stay sober. Once she finished, she was drunk and passed out without any worries. That's called professional attitude," Bai Hui explained after thinking for a moment.

"That makes sense," Liu Chang'an agreed.

"Thank goodness you weren't drunk," Bai Hui said thankfully.

"Okay, see you when school starts." Liu Chang'an prepared to say goodbye. School would start after Qixi Festival, in just a few days.

"Hey, hey, hey!" Bai Hui hurriedly grabbed Liu Chang'an, "I need you to take my sister back!"

Liu Chang'an said "Oh," and agreed, "They've treated me to a late-night snack, so I should help them out."

Bai Hui went to help Zhong Qing, but couldn't budge him; a drunk person is truly heavy as a rock.

Liu Chang'an handed Zhong Qing's bag to Bai Hui, "Go open the car door."

Bai Hui found the car keys, ran over and opened the car door. She was about to come back and help Liu Chang'an to support Zhong Qing when she discovered that Liu Chang'an had actually carried Zhong Qing under his arm and walked over.

"The handling of human bodies has been a science since ancient times. In ancient times, death was a common occurrence during wars, especially in large-scale battles, where corpses littered the fields. Sometimes, the bodies needed to be disposed of to prevent the spread of plague, which was a matter of utmost seriousness in ancient times. How were the bodies quickly moved and disposed of? The shape of the human body is actually not very suitable for handling by hand. Generally, a hook was used to insert into the mouth or jaw, hook the body, and drag it away. Have you ever seen a pig's head hanging on a butcher's stall? That's what it was like."

After Liu Chang'an finished speaking, he saw that Bai Hui looked nauseous and wanted to vomit again.

Bai Hui glared at Liu Chang'an. Liu Chang'an must be doing this on purpose again; he just enjoys making people feel disgusted!

While Bai Hui was angry, she took out her phone and called a designated driver.

The designated driver took Zhongqing to Baolong Center. Bai Hui refused Liu Chang'an's method of carrying Zhong Qing with one hand, feeling that Liu Chang'an would treat her cousin like a corpse. Bai Hui was unhappy and insisted on helping Liu Chang'an carry Zhong Qing to her hotel room upstairs.

Liu Chang'an put Zhong Qing down and prepared to leave. Taking care of Zhong Qing was Bai Hui's job. Just as he stepped out of the room, he saw Qian Ning and Lu Yuan walking over from the other end of the corridor.

It'll be featured on the recommendation list tomorrow, and there'll be a surge in popularity.
