Before drinking on behalf of his wife, Huo Zhanting politely explained to those offering drinks, "My wife can't hold her liquor well, so I'll drink for her."
Could those offering drinks refuse?
Everyone in their circle were old foxes, not to mention, Huo Zhanting's action did not strike them as presumptuous, and many even teased on the spot.
"Of course, but the relationship between Director Huo and Director An is really like honey mixed with oil. No matter how many years pass, they're always this loving, truly enviable."
An Lan blushed a deep red, while Huo Zhanting wore a look as if to say 'naturally,' which left the teasers momentarily stunned before they burst out laughing.
"Everyone in the circle knows that Director Huo is a wife-spoiling demon. With Director Huo around, it seems today we won't have the chance to toast with Director An." Someone nearby joined in the joke with a smile.
