You Are The Apple of My Eyes

Chapter 649 Michelle's Praises

Bryant had initially made a reservation in quite a high-end restaurant, but after a quick reminder from Leon, he chose a different place. It was still an elegant establishment, but the private rooms had been booked, so they could only sit in the hall.

They were seated in a quiet area, away from the hustle and bustle of the restaurant. They were beside the window that was reflecting the city lights.

Before Leon and Michelle arrived, Wynn took the chance to talk to Bryant. "Michelle will also be joining us later. Remember that you can't reveal Leon's identity. Besides, you need to focus on getting him drunk tonight."

"He doesn't get drunk easily though. Neither of us can drink as much as him." Bryant was a much more delicate and gentle man compared to Wynn's aggressive demeanor. He sat opposite him dressed in fine clothing as he looked at the other man's scowl.

Wynn made himself comfortable and casually sat in place. "Maybe we can't drink more than him individually, but we can as a collective. I will find all types of excuses to get him to drink. If he gets drunk, Michelle will be able to take care of him."

Bryant smiled and said, "I see what you're planning. They should arrive soon. I'm very curious about Michelle."

"Well you shouldn't be. You should only be curious about other women, okay?" Wynn said warily.

Bryant looked at him and bluntly asked, "What are you thinking?"

Wynn smiled and moved aside. "Come and sit next to me. I want them to sit closer so they can make a connection."

"You're right." As soon as Bryant shifted seats, he saw Leon staring at them with a girl following behind. He assumed that it was probably Michelle.

Didn't he say she was a college student? She looked more like she was in high school.

Knowing that a lot of students skip grades, Bryant leaned over and asked in surprise, "How old is she?"

"21 years old." Wynn turned to look at him and understood what he meant. "Why? What's the matter? Are you wondering if Leon is a freak who likes underage girls? She just has a baby face and looks very small."

"Okay." Bryant breathed a sigh of relief as the two people arrived at the table. He stood up and smiled. "Nice to meet you. Please have a seat. You must be Michelle. Leon and Wynn often talked about you. It's nice to finally meet you. My name is Bryant Feng."

Michelle politely responded, "Hi, Bryant."

"Please have a seat." Bryant gestured for her to take a seat, and then he also sat down and invited the waiter to serve the dishes.

It was the first time that Michelle had met Leon's friends. She was excited and couldn't help staring at Bryant. He looked up from the table and met her clear and bright eyes, stunned.

"Is there anything on my face?"

"No, no, no." Michelle repeatedly shook her head and realized that she was being rude. She wanted to say something, but on second thought, she ended up pursing her lips and keeping quiet.

Having known her for a while now, Leon knew that she'd get upset if she didn't speak her mind. He chipped in, urging, "If you want to say something, just speak. Bryant is a good friend so you don't

have to restrain yourself."

"Yes, speak freely," Wynn said.

Michelle eagerly spoke up. "Do all handsome men only have handsome friends? Just like birds of a feather flock together."

Wynn clicked his tongue and stared at her endearingly. "You're so sweet."

Leon was used to it by now, but she always picked a new tone to give out her compliments. Her eyes would turn deeply sincere and it always made him laugh.

Everyone liked to be praised.

Bryant was probably the most flattered of them all.

The waiter put four bottles of red wine in the middle of the table, and set down all the dishes. Seeing the wine, Wynn smiled maliciously and filled everyone's glasses for them.

He stopped in front of Michelle's glass and asked, "Can you drink?"

"Of course." Michelle smiled. "I can actually drink much better than Nini."

Only a drop of wine fell into the glass when Wynn immediately lifted the bottle again. Even though she was confident in herself, he knew that any random person off the street could handle alcohol better than the little princess.

"Bring her something else to drink." Leon took the menu and checked what she could have. "What do you like to drink? Milk, coconut juice, orange juice, watermelon juice? All of them?" RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

"Aren't we here to celebrate? Alcohol is the best thing to have. I promise you that I really can drink." Afraid that they wouldn't believe her, Michelle fought her case further. "My parents are the ones who

taught me. They drank with me."

The three of them were still skeptical. Most parents usually discouraged their daughters from drinking. It was almost unheard of that they'd teach their daughters how to do it. Of course, it was inevitable that there had to be some strange parents out there.

Adams and Elaine were in fact these weird parents.

She began explaining, "My mother wanted me to know how much I could handle so whenever I drink when I'm out with friends, I know when enough is enough. My father had other thoughts though. He said that sometimes in society you have to prepare for the worst, so he trained me to drink even more."

After hearing that, the three of them fell silent for a while. Then, Bryant said with a smile, "You're right. Just drink a little."

Wynn took the bottle and sat back. "The three of us usually don't leave until we get drunk. When we get drunk later, no one will be able take care of Leon. It doesn't matter if Bryant and I are making fools of ourselves, but Leon can't. So you can't get drunk."

Leon cast a glance at Wynn and asked in surprise, "Have we ever gotten drunk together before?"

"We will today. I'm tired from the long journey. Why don't you have drink with me?" Wynn picked up the bottle and refilled Leon's glass. "You usually can always drink more than the two of us. If you can't get us drunk, that would be quite embarrassing."

Wynn then turned to face Michelle and informed her, "Let me tell you something. Leon is an incredible drinker. Not even the two of us can compare to him. Don't you agree, Bryant?"

Bryant quickly realized that Wynn was trying to provoke Leon. He echoed, "Yes, you're right. Everyone knows he's a good drinker."

Leon knew he could handle his liquor but he wasn't confident enough to get Wynn and Bryant drunk.

He felt like something was wrong.

The two men looked at each other as if they were setting up a trap for him.

"I..." As soon as Leon opened his mouth and wanted to explain, he heard a sweet voice. "Wow, is it true? That's awesome!"

Leon wanted to explain, but as soon as he heard her admiration, his mouth lifted into a smile. All he could muster was, "Thank you."

Holding back his excitement, Wynn raised his eyebrows at Bryant smugly. He was so proud that he could manipulate Leon just by using a few words.

He continued to flatter, "Leon is so awesome. We'll be drunk before he even gets tipsy! If you don't believe me, just wait and see. We'll get drunk long before him."

"Leon, since you're so good at this, it looks like I'll never have to worry about you getting drunk at social events in the future." Michelle had no idea that these two men were just using her to get what they wanted.

Leon caught on though. He faintly smiled as he looked cunningly at the two men. He'd exact his revenge sooner or later.

Wynn couldn't dodge the glare that was shot at him. He had no choice but to give a wry smile and awkwardly snatch the wine glass from Bryant's hand.

Bryant had the glass right in front of his mouth when he felt it disappear from his clutch. Wynn gulped the wine down almost instantly. He started drinking before he could even convince Leon to

have one drink.

His throat burned as the liquid flowed down.

Michelle couldn't help but praise, "Wynn, you also seem to be a talented drinker. If Leon is better, then I can't wait to see how he does. Can you also drink more than half the wine in a single gulp, Leon?"

Wynn gradually felt the fire in his throat simmer down. He pounded on the table and answered for Leon, "Yes! He can guzzle the whole glass!"

"Leon, you are amazing!" Michelle looked at Leon and then looked at the full glass of wine in front of him.

Leon knew he was unable to refuse when Michelle looked at him with her watery eyes.
