488 Alcohol Tolerance
It was normal for outstanding men to have many women.
Not everyone was willing to stay loyal to one woman, and a man with concubines did not mean that he was unreliable and could not be entrusted.
He felt that the Lin family’s requirements were still too harsh. Lin Yaoyao was not 22 years old. She was already in her thirties. What if she could not give birth? What would happen to Su Chong then?
Chu Leizhen pondered for a moment before saying, “If you can do it, then do it well. Let’s just tell the results. Why do you care so much? If not for Teacher Lin’s lack of interest, your mother would have asked you to marry her.”
Chu Jin choked on his saliva and coughed. He hurriedly said, “Father, my good father, I will definitely do this well.”
Chu Leizhen nodded. “That’s more like it.”
Chu Jin’s eyes darted around and he said with a smile, “Father, I really think Su Chong is not bad. If Su Chong doesn’t pass the Lin family’s test, why don’t we let my sister meet him too? Maybe they will get along well. As long as she’s the main wife, he can have a mistress to give birth to children for him. Sister can snatch the children over and raise them. At that time, they’ll be her children. It’s such a good thing to have a child without suffering any pain or fatigue—ouch—”
Before Chu Jin could finish speaking, he was slapped on the head. He shut up in embarrassment.
Chu Leizhen snorted. “Stop talking. You’ll suffer if your mother overhears this. Our Nini won’t marry a martial artist. The border will be stable for a few years before war breaks out. Your mother will have a lot to cry about then.”
After saying that, Chu Leizhen didn’t want to say anything else. He turned around and left.
Chu Jin scratched his head and shook his head helplessly.
He had forgotten that his mother cried easily and his sister was exactly the same as his mother. Thinking about it this way, Su Chong was indeed not suitable at all.
In the end, all generals had to go to the battlefield. Ten out of ten generals were covered in scars. All the glory was earned by fighting with their lives. Outsiders could only see the glory of returning and envy the fame and fortune they obtained, but their families would see the blood and sweat flowing through their faces.
Every time they left home, the women and children who stayed at home would be worried to death.
He was the root of the Chu family and had been practicing martial arts since he was young. He also liked to practice martial arts and could not avoid taking this path. However, his sister could avoid this life. He did not think too much about it previously, but now that he thought about it, he understood his parents’ painstaking efforts.
As a son, the only thing he could do was to train day after day to make himself stronger. In the future, he could give himself a way out at certain dangerous moments.
Chu Jin didn’t think too much and fell asleep on the bed.
On the other side, when Chu Leizhen returned to the main courtyard, Madam Wen went to get a handkerchief to wipe Chu Leizhen’s face.
She naturally helped Chu Leizhen take off his coat.
Chu Leizhen smiled and said, “After this period of time, Jin’er and Su Chong have become familiar with each other. They are going to drink together tomorrow. We’ll see the results tomorrow. I’ve also arranged for Yingyue Restaurant and given them enough money.”
Regardless of whether Su Chong’s willpower was good or not, even if his willpower was poor tomorrow, no girl would pester him. However, if he went by himself after tomorrow, it would have nothing to do with their Chu family.
Madam Wen said softly, “Yaoyao has suffered too. The injuries on her face have healed, but she has also missed the best marriage age. From the letter, she should be interested in Su Chong, but she has too many concerns.”
“Madam, don’t worry. Marriage is predestined by the heavens. Whether it’s good or bad, you can’t avoid it.”
Chu Leizhen comforted Madam Wen. Marriage was predestined. Including the fate of people, everything was predestined.
Just like him and Madam Wen. He was a martial artist. Back then, he was only a small official in Jiangzhou, but he had married a sensible and gentle woman like Madam Wen.
Coincidentally, he found other gentle women who loved to cry troublesome and annoying. He did not want to be near them at all. However, Madam Wen was different. Her eyes were watery, as if there was a fog of worry that could not be dispelled. No matter if she was afraid, worried, or happy, he was obsessed with her. After being with Madam Wen, there was only one sentence in his mind. “I love her like a fool. I’m willing to pluck the stars for her to see her smile.”
Chu Leizhen’s gaze was burning. Madam Wen noticed the change in his gaze and blushed.
Chu Leizhen threw the towel into the basin and carried Madam Wen to the bed.

Su Chong came to get the medicine at night. Su Xiaoling couldn’t help but ask worriedly, “Brother, are you really fine?”
He fought every day. Could he really take it?
Su Chong smiled and said, “It’s fine. We won’t compete tomorrow. I’ve learned a lot during this period of time.”
In terms of martial arts, he also needed to improve. During this period of time, he had also improved a lot.
Su Xiaolu also believed in Su Chong, but she was still afraid that he would be injured and her family would be worried, so she took his pulse when she gave him the medicine.
Only when she confirmed that there were no problems did she let Su Chong go back to apply the medicine.
Because Su Chong’s face was not injured, Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao were no longer worried.
Su Hua knew, but he only told him to be careful one night. The siblings tacitly hid it.
They weren’t children anymore. They had their own considerations for everything they did, so they didn’t have to let their parents know everything and make them worry.
Su Chong went to bed after applying the medicine and went out early the next day.
When he arrived at the agreed location, Chu Jin was already waiting at the door.
Su Chong looked at this quiet street. Just as he was curious, Chu Jin called out to him, “Brother Su is here. Let’s go. Qi Xingfeng is waiting.”
Su Chong greeted Chu Jin.
Chu Jin had already put his arm around Su Chong’s shoulder. He smiled and said, “I prepared the best dishes and wine today. I must compete with Brother Su. Brother Su, you haven’t eaten breakfast, right?”
Su Chong nodded. They had planned this yesterday, and he had agreed to it. Of course, he would not go back on his word.
If he ate at home, it would be meaningless for him to come to the appointment. Moreover, he would appear to be insincere and not abide by his promise.
After entering Yingyue Restaurant, Su Chong smelled the smell of rouge and makeup, but it was also very quiet inside. Su Chong had doubts in his heart and could not help but ask Chu Jin, “Brother Chu, what is this place? Why is it closed in the daytime and not welcoming guests? There are no customers either. How can they do business like this?”
Forgive his ignorance, but he really couldn’t tell what this place was.
Chu Jin looked at Su Chong and said with a smile, “Brother Su, you’ll know later. This is heaven for men. Let’s eat and drink first.”
Chu Jin felt that Su Chong was really innocent. He actually didn’t know where this was.
However, to test a man’s loyalty, he had to do it in such a place.
After bringing Su Chong into the private room, Qi Xingfeng stood up. His expression was a little unnatural, but in the end, under Chu Jin’s gaze, he lowered his eyes and sat down.
Qi Xingfeng came even earlier. Yesterday, he didn’t have the chance to ask Chu Jin why he found such a place, so he came early today to ask for the reason.
