They flew to the capital and then back again, so they must have used their identification cards. If Old Lu wasn't going to handle the check-in himself, it would definitely fall to Lu Ya!
Lu Ya knew where Old Lu's ID card was. Following that lead, finding Lu Ying Er's ID card shouldn't be a problem. Once the performance was over, he needed to hurry and find Lu Ya.
Shi Tian was about to leave, but Old Lu wouldn't let him off that easily!
I admit I was wrong about last night, so I'll punish myself with three cups! However, according to our customs, when an elder punishes themselves with alcohol, the younger ones must accompany them! You’ll have to endure it again!
As soon as he finished speaking, Old Lu downed a cup of liquor and poured three more for Shi Tian. With a narrowed gaze, he fixed his eyes on Shi Tian, waiting for him to drink up!
Come on, old man, I really can't drink anymore; my stomach is feeling a bit full! Since Old Lu didn't have his ID on him, why should he drink?
Three cups all at once—Old Lu was being ruthless; did he want him to lie down on the way back?
If your stomach is full, just take a leak. This is my punishment drink; you can take your time with it and have some food first! Old Lu was surprisingly considerate and even gave Shi Tian a green light.
Alright then, Brother Lu, help me to the restroom. Since the old man is giving me face, I have to drink this!
Dragging Lu Ya along to the restroom, Shi Tian closed the door and pulled back Lu Ya, who was trying to slip away. He pushed him against the wall: "Lu Ya, I've heard from Ye Ge that Ying Er Jie has always treated you well!"
Ye Ge wants to take Ying Er Jie to Xishuangbanna for a little getaway; you can't refuse to help with that! Where's Ying Er Jie's ID card? Do you know?
Lu Ya was one of their own; this shouldn't be too difficult.
Auntie's ID card is in Old Lu's possession at Li Xiang's place! But what good is just one ID card? We can get a temporary one at the airport! You could just steal the Hukou!
Lu Ya was anxious for Shi Ye and Lu Ying Er, but what could he do? He couldn't help!
He didn't have the guts to steal the Hukou; if Old Lu found out, he would probably kick him out of the family tree! If that happened, how could he ever go back home?
Just now when I dropped Ye Ge and Ying Er Jie off at the airport, Ying Er Jie cried her eyes out over that temporary ID card. How could you bear it? I won't steal the Hukou; stealing an ID card should be fine! At least it would spare Ying Er Jie from being so upset!
Shi Tian clenched his fists and waved them in front of Lu Ya's face, startling him into instinctively covering his eyes.
His panda eyes hadn't even faded yet! If Shi Tian landed another couple of punches on him, how would he face anyone afterward?
What kind of joke is this? Do you think I dare steal an ID card? If I got caught with it, wouldn't Old Lu beat me to death? Shaking his head, Lu Ya firmly rejected Shi Tian's idea.
If it were stealing the Hukou, he could accept getting beaten up. But stealing a useless ID card and then getting punished by Old Lu? That would be a total loss!
For Ying Er Jie and Ye Ge, what's wrong with taking a beating? Besides, if Old Lu wanted to hit you, he'd have to catch you first!
Seeing that Lu Ya's tone had softened, Shi Tian leaned closer: "Steal the ID card and bring it to my shop. Then you can drive over to Wan Quan River and wait for Jun Ge there! I'll take care of things with Old Lu; I promise I'll look after you well!"
Ye Ge has already left Sanya; you should meet up with Jun Ge and leave Sanya early tomorrow morning. The next time you see Old Lu will be at least a month from now; by then he'll have calmed down!
Even if it doesn't matter, what can be done? You refuse to admit it, claiming that the ID was lost by the old man. What evidence can he possibly provide?
Returning to the table, Lu Ya had already vanished without a trace. Shi Tian was starting to sway, and Old Lu's pouring of the wine had slowed down.
Shi Tian couldn't be allowed to get too drunk; if he did, there would be no way to extract information from him. But he also couldn't be allowed to be too sober; finding that balance was tricky!
Xiao Tian, this rod of yours is quite impressive! It looks like you've used a lot of good stuff inside! Watching as three more cups of wine went down, Old Lu began steering the conversation toward the rod.
As soon as Beer Bottle Bottom heard the topic shift, his ears perked up, eagerly waiting for Shi Tian to spill the secrets.
Glancing at Beer Bottle Bottom from the corner of his eye, Shi Tian rubbed his nose. It wouldn't be easy to fool Old Lu; he was a professional!
Of course! There’s nothing better than this rod on the market. Why would I use anything less? But since there are outsiders here, let’s not discuss that. Come on, drink up! You've already had one cup as a penalty; let's get on with the next!
This kid still hasn't had enough! He’s still worried about outsiders! But seeing how much has been poured, they couldn't rush the drinking!
Xiao Zhang, go down the mountain and buy a bottle of water for Xiao Tian—make it sparkling water, something to help with the hangover! Pointing at his phone, Old Lu gave Beer Bottle Bottom a knowing look, signaling him to leave for a moment so he could talk freely.
Once Beer Bottle Bottom left, Old Lu chuckled: Xiao Tian, now that there are no outsiders around, I can actually gather quite a bit of material. Let’s see if I can help you out!
