CHAPTER 468: CHAPTER 468: WORRIED ABOUT NOT GETTING MARRIED?

Upon seeing Su Ge finish her drink, surprise flashed in both of their eyes.

The wine they had just tasted was very strong.

What if she really gets drunk, what then?

They wouldn’t have to deal with some outrageous incident where she clings to the Huo Family, demanding the two brothers take responsibility, would they?

The two drank uneasily, then bowed their heads and quietly ate their food.

If this girl got drunk, they definitely wouldn’t take responsibility.

Sure enough, after Su Ge downed that half a glass of wine, her hand seemed to support her head.

At first, she was conversing with Mrs. Huo intermittently.

But then, while speaking normally, she suddenly burst into tears with a "waah."

Everyone present was instantly stunned.

Huo Zhengting was also taken aback, looking at her incredulously.

"Is she drunk?"

She got drunk just from that little bit of alcohol?

Her tolerance really is poor.

Mrs. Huo immediately gave Huo Zhengting a blaming look.

Why use such strong alcohol.

Xiao Ge hadn’t eaten much yet and she’s already drunk.

"I... I’m not drunk..." After crying for a while, Su Ge suddenly calmed down and propped her head up sadly, "It’s just, I suddenly thought of something sad."

"A sad thing? Could it be marriage worries?"

As soon as Huo Zhengting uttered these words, he successfully received another eye roll from Mrs. Huo.

Just because his own son is worried about finding a wife, does that mean every other girl is worried about getting married?

Taking advantage of someone drunk to say nonsense.

Su Ge immediately shook her head, her words thick with the scent of wine, "It’s my best friend... has been jailed..."

At these words, Huo Jiaqi and Huo Jialin couldn’t help glancing at her.

This dark-skinned girl has friends?

"That really is a sad affair."

As a high judicial official, Huo Zhengting was accustomed to showing no tolerance or sympathy for offenders, responding very calmly.

Mrs. Huo, seeing Su Ge’s sad expression, felt somewhat heartbroken, "Your friend, why were they jailed?"

A friend of Doctor Su, how could they commit crimes...

"Because of her parents," Su Ge said, tears starting to drop again, her hands constantly wiping the corners of her eyes, "Because her parents were also jailed, she wanted to accompany them in prison."

"What a filial child."

Huo Zhengting calmly added another comment.

And once again elicited an eye roll from Mrs. Huo.

Is this the time to say such things?

"Xiao Ge, don’t be too sad, the crime your friend committed must not be too serious, they should be able to get out soon," Mrs. Huo continued to gently persuade.

Su Ge kept shaking her head, "She’s so foolish... with no place to plead her case, she ended up getting herself jailed... she wants to accompany her parents forever..."

"To plead their case?" Mrs. Huo’s expression shifted slightly, "Is there an injustice in your friend’s parents’ case?"

But at this point, Su Ge stopped talking and laid her head on the table, falling asleep.

"Xiao Ge, Xiao Ge?"

Mrs. Huo called her several times to no response.

"She seems to have fallen asleep." Huo Jialin was sitting next to Su Ge, now with a dark look on his face.

What kind of drinker is she?

Getting drunk and acting wild.

"Zhengting, what do you think?" Mrs. Huo looked at the sleeping Su Ge, thinking back on her previous words, her expression complex as she turned to Huo Zhengting.

Xiao Ge seems quite distressed about her friend’s troubles.

"What else is there to think, just wait for the girl to sober up and ask her clearly."

Huo Zhengting frowned.

Over these past few years of his illness, the people below him really have gotten more and more lax.
