Chapter 57 Do you dare to drink this?
Scarlet’s best friend, Betty Ellis, came from a family that dealt in jade and was quite successful. More importantly, Betty had some ambiguous relationship with Orion, so of course she stood with Stephen and his crew.
“Drink until you puke? Today Stephen drinks until he pukes, I can’t even throw up!” The hand on Mason’s back seemed to give him endless courage as he shouted loudly.
“Good! This is what you said! If I can’t drink you under the table today, my last name will be the same as yours!” Stephen also got angry.
In front of Scarlet, these two young men definitely couldn’t back down. Lachlan glanced at Scarlet and saw that this wealthy lady was looking down with an indifferent expression.
He couldn’t help but shake his head secretly and thought to himself that if they kept going like this, Scarlet would probably just be watching them for amusement. But Lachlan had to help Mason; as for how he pursued Scarlet or whether he could catch her attention or not – Lachlan couldn’t control that.
Next thing they knew it was a heated drinking contest between Mason and Stephen – one cup after another! Since Lachlan came in later on, both men had already drunk almost 1kg each!
Stephen’s face was already purple-red indicating that he could barely handle it anymore while Mason appeared unfazed by all the alcohol.
“Come on! Keep going! Damn it, drinking one cup after another isn’t enough excitement; why don’t we just chug straight from the bottle?” Mason spoke and opened another bottle of liquor, ready to toast with Stephen.
As soon as he finished speaking, Stephen’s face twitched a few times!
Damn, were they really going to chug this liquor?
Was Mason crazy? How can he drink so much?
“Haha, Mr. Lowe, Stephen drank more than you before! When we’re on vacation, we have to go around Edoland. I heard you’re doing well there and we’ll need your help! To show my sincerity, I’ll drink something fancy with you. How about that?” At this point, Orion’s eyes rolled and he smiled at Mason.
The next second saw him take two beer glasses and pour half a cup of liquor into each glass before filling them up with red wine.
“Come on Mr. Lowe let’s finish this glass!” Orion laughed but his smile looked sinister.
He wanted Stephen to slow down while trying his best to get Mason drunk in one shot.
Drinking liquor mixed with red wine like this would likely harm the body especially since Mason had already consumed so much alcohol.
But Orion didn’t care about that; they had invited Mason over today just so they could crush him in front of Scarlet.
It would be better if he drank himself dead!
Looking at this mixture of beer glasses, Mason immediately showed anger and stared coldly at Orion.
“You go to the other side, I’ll drink with Stephen. What’s it to you?”
“You can’t say that! Stephen drank at least one more 500g than you before, so let’s make it fair. You should first make up for what you lack!”
“What’s wrong, Mr. Lowe? Can’t handle it? Don’t let Scarlet look down on you!” Blake was also fanning the flames and stirring up trouble on the side right now.
“That’s right! Mr. Lowe, if you’re a man, then take care of it first.” Betty also pursed her lips and urged them on.
Mason’s face changed a few times. He was already prone to getting drunk after drinking, and he was doing it in front women.
After glancing at Scarlet, Mason really wanted to act impulsively.
However, at this time, someone seemed to be even more impulsive than him.
“What’s the point of drinking this? If you have the guts, drink the 96-degree Water of Life! Dare you?” Lachlan pushed away the mixture and asked with great disgust.
As soon as the words fell, there was a sudden silence in the private room, and everyone looked at Lachlan with a look of madness.
Scarlet, who originally had droopy eyelids, looked over with a surprised expression on her face.
“Water of life? What nonsense are you talking about?” Stephen’s eyelid twitched.
“Mr. Lowe, is this your brother-in-law? Does he have a grudge against you and want to play you to death?” Orion pointed at Lachlan, sneering.
“Trying to win favor with the crowd? Hmph!” Betty rolled her eyes and looked at Lachlan disdainfully.
“I just want to ask if you dare or not? If you don’t dare, then get out of here!” Lachlan pointed at Orion and said coldly, “Whoever plays who to death is uncertain!”
Orion mixed liquor with red wine – how malicious! Since that was the case, Lachlan wouldn’t be polite anymore.
“Damn it! Does Mason dare drink it? If he dares, then I will too!” Orion slammed his hand on the table through gritted teeth.
“Good!” Lachlan nodded and patted Mason’s shoulder. “Do they have this kind of distilled liquor here? Have someone bring a bottle over.”
Mason tugged at the corner of his mouth and stared into Lachlan’s eyes for a few seconds before gritting his teeth. “Alright.”
He saw complete affirmation in Lachlan’s eyes.
Mason chose to believe his brother-in-law!
Once he entered the private room, he was constantly being pressured by Stephen and his friends.
Even in front of Scarlet, they ridiculed and insulted him.
Mason couldn’t hold back this anger any longer.
Especially when Orion pushed a large glass of mixed alcohol towards him, this resentment fermented to its peak.
In no time at all, the waiter brought over a bottle of 96-degree liquor.
“I’ll go first!” Mason glanced at Lachlan before grabbing the bottle and opening it directly.
“Mason, your brother-in-law is crazy. Are you crazy too? Do you really want to drink?” At this point, Scarlet finally lost her composure and asked Mason coldly.
She knew that Mason had gotten into this situation with Stephen and his friends because of her.
“Of course!” Mason grabbed the bottle of liquor and chugged it down.
In that instant, he only felt a warm current rushing into his body from his esophagus to stomach forming a protective layer within him.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
The fiery liquor went down Mason’s throat, but he felt nothing. Only a mist of alcohol rose from his head, invisible to the naked eye. The onlookers were stunned by this sight and showed their surprise.
Scarlet’s beautiful eyes flickered as she saw how crazed Mason had become for her sake. She couldn’t help but feel a ripple in her heart. But in the next second, she glanced at Lachlan with suspicion flashing deep in her eyes.
“Ha… that was awesome!” Mason shouted after downing half a bottle of liquor.
Bang! He slammed the remaining half bottle heavily in front of Orion and yelled, “Come on! You said you’d drink if I did! If you don’t drink, you’re just a coward!”
Orion’s expression changed several times before finally looking fierce and saying, “Damn it! What’s so great about it? Let’s drink!”
If he didn’t drink now, he wouldn’t be able to face Mason or any other wealthy playboys they knew later on. Besides, he thought that if Mason could handle it without any problems then it couldn’t be that bad – all those rumors about the deadly effects of alcohol must have been exaggerated!
Otherwise why would Mason have brought them this bottle? It was probably just to scare himself!
Damn it all – there was no way Orion would let himself be scared off like that!
With this thought in mind, Orion steeled himself, closed his eyes, and picked up the bottle, then began pouring it into his mouth.
However, the next moment, as the first sip of the Water of Life entered his mouth, his face changed!
Gulp! Gulp…
After just two sips, Orion made a spluttering sound and sprayed out a large amount of liquid.
Amidst it was a shocking and vivid crimson!
This guy had actually vomited blood right after drinking it!
