As they talked, Qin Siyang's face had already turned slightly red.
It had only been a minute since he drank a large cup of white liquor.
Qin Siyang could not help clicking his tongue.
As his Sequence abilities improved, his physical strength was indeed constantly increasing... but it seemed like his body's ability to absorb alcohol was also getting stronger.
Just as Qin Siyang was about to eat a few bites of food to suppress his drunkenness, Yan Ran raised her cup again.
Her voice already sounded somewhat swaying in Qin Siyang's ears, "Thank you, Student Qin, for killing Yan Xiaowu at the Crystal Coin Issuance Event and helping me out of trouble. I'll toast you."
"No, Commander Yan, you..."
"Student Qin, I'll finish mine. Drink as much as you like."
"..."
Qin Siyang did not know what to say, so he drank another large cup of white liquor.
As soon as he finished, Yan Ran filled her cup again and said to Qin Siyang, "After I return to the legion, I'll apply for an independent establishment for a Sequence Regiment for Student Qin. This cup is for our cooperation."
With that, she drained it in one gulp again.
Yan Ran's reasoning was well-founded, so Qin Siyang could only drink again.
Looking at Yan Ran's cheeks, which remained slightly pink and showed no change at all, he was completely dumbfounded.
His own face was already burning like a boiling kettle, yet Yan Ran did not react at all?
'This sister can really drink!'
But there was no way he could keep drinking with Yan Ran like this.
What if he got so drunk that he became unconscious and did something that damaged his glorious image? How would he explain it to Wen Shu? How would he answer to his little friends who trusted him?
Seeing that Yan Ran was about to fill his cup again, he immediately turned his wine cup upside down on the table.
At this point, double images had already appeared in Qin Siyang's vision.
"Commander Yan, I can't keep drinking like this. Three cups are enough to show our sincerity. We're here to discuss matters today, not to drink, right?"
Seeing this, Yan Ran did not insist any further.
She put down the wine bottle and asked softly, "Student Qin, do you know why I chose to have dinner with you in the reception hall on the ninth floor instead of the hall on the tenth floor?"
Qin Siyang supported his increasingly heavy head with one hand and drunkenly picked some food into his mouth, "Hmm? There's a reason for the choice of location? Isn't it because Commander Yan lives on this floor?"
Yan Ran shook her head, a glimmer of light passing through her beautiful eyes, "Because Wen Shu lives on the tenth floor."
Qin Siyang was stunned, and even his drunkenness was sobered by two points, "Wen Shu? What does where we eat have to do with her?"
Yan Ran's gaze shifted slightly away from Qin Siyang's direct stare, "I heard that you like her."
Qin Siyang, whose consciousness was already somewhat blurred, was directly choked by the pig trotter he had just stuffed into his mouth, and he pounded his chest hard.
Yan Ran stood up and poured him a cup of water. With the water, Qin Siyang finally swallowed it.
He asked in confusion, "Uh... Commander Yan, does this have anything to do with what we're going to discuss tonight?"
"Yes. I don't want the contents of our conversation tonight to be known by her and cause you unnecessary trouble..."
As Yan Ran spoke, her gaze lowered another three points. Like snow melting, a faint blush appeared on her cheeks.
Qin Siyang's alcohol-numbed face twitched.
'To avoid Wen Shu and not let her know?'
'Then at least choose a place farther away.'
'Sister Yan Ran, did you really think that if you ate with me on the ninth floor, Wen Shu wouldn't find out?'
Qin Siyang's eyes gradually found it difficult to focus. He rubbed his eyes hard.
"Commander Yan, if you have something to say, just say it. Beating around the bush like this seems a little unlike you normally."
From the moment he entered the door, Qin Siyang had felt that Yan Ran's arrangements were somewhat off.
Now that she had said some strange things again, Qin Siyang felt even more uneasy.
Could it be that another woman had been captivated by his handsome looks?
"Yes, then I'll say it."
Yan Ran turned her head to the side, her long black hair separating her face from Qin Siyang's gaze.
"Student Qin, I... I want to take you back to the military district and then get married. As for the conditions... you can name them."
"...Hmm... Hmm?"
Qin Siyang's eyes widened in shock.
'What the hell?!'
Sally had only asked him to date her, but Sister Yan Ran was even more explosive.
The worst situation he could imagine was Yan Ran expressing love at first sight for him during their dinner.
'Good grief!'
'She is directly asking me to marry her?'
Qin Siyang immediately straightened up and waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no, no, no, no... Absolutely not! Commander Yan, drinking is drinking, but don't talk nonsense!"
Yan Ran's head was still turned to the side. She shook it hard, completely unlike the ice-cold beauty in Qin Siyang's impression, and said guiltily, "I'm not talking nonsense. I really do hope to be with Student Qin... Mm."
"Absolutely not! You even call me Student Qin, and you know I'm still a student. Right now, I still have to prioritize my studies. How can I go to the military district!"
"Student Qin... Mr. Qin, your achievements are already astonishing enough. Going to school actually has little meaning for you anymore. Going to the military district would give you a better life."
"Forget it? A better life? My life would just be disturbed! I refuse! Commander Yan, you said your conditions are top-notch in every aspect, so why don't you find someone from a matching family to be with instead of insisting on finding an orphan like me?"
Hearing this, Yan Ran slowly raised her head, her gaze carrying a hint of sadness, as if she had returned to her usual appearance of keeping strangers at a distance, "I have had four fiances... all of them wanted to take the military power in my hands. I don't want to have relationships with anyone anymore, but I still have to get married and have children, choose a successor, and stabilize the military's morale. I think being together with Mr. Qin would be a pleasant thing..."
"I wouldn't find it pleasant! If you lack a successor, just adopt one! Hu Chan was an orphan adopted by the Zephyr Church, and now his inheritance is perfectly secure!"
"I wouldn't feel at ease with someone else's child. Historically, there have been many people who raised someone else's child and ended up with an unfortunate later life."
"...Fine, I can understand that you need a successor, but why do you have to choose me?"
"Because I don't accept or approve of most men in my heart. Just thinking about marrying and being together with them makes me feel disgusted," At this point, Yan Ran finally raised her head again, autumn-like ripples moving in her beautiful eyes, "But with you, I don't feel as much resistance. Even if it were a marriage without feelings, I think I could accept it."
Qin Siyang hurriedly said, "I won't accept it! Commander Yan, Sister Yan Ran, I really can't. Please, please choose someone else... Right! I'll recommend someone to you, Gu Yunpeng!"
The moment he thought of Gu Yunpeng, Qin Siyang immediately seemed to have grabbed a lifeline, "That's right, Gu Yunpeng! His father is powerful and his background is strong, he's handsome and has a great bearing! He's also only second to me... No, he's an even more outstanding new-generation prodigy than me! And! Your successor will have everything covered, both in external genes and internal strength!"
"If you marry him, you'll have everything you could want!"
"I can introduce you!"
