Chen Ping'an returned to the curtain and looked around.

Tao Zhixing and his three male subordinates had already separated from the group of Beijing officials and sat together, drinking, chatting and building relationships.

This was exactly the result he wanted to see.

The leaders of a small institution in the northwest region like the Calligraphy and Painting Academy would naturally not miss the opportunity to dine, drink and build relationships with officials from the capital.

He sat down and ate something, but never offered a toast again.

But at this moment, Hu Xianmei pulled Lanxiang over with her.

The two men walked up to Chen Shaohua and toasted him, but Chen Pingan was busy eating and ignored them.

A moment later, Hu Xianmei's voice sounded behind Chen Pingan.

"Mr. Chen..."

Chen Pingan heard the sound, put down his chopsticks and turned around.

The scent of perfume on Hu Xianmei and Lanxiang was already very faint, but it could still be smelled at such a close distance.

Hu Xianmei said with a smile, "Mr. Chen, thank you for your hospitality. Tonight is the last time we've had a comfortable meal."

Chen Pingan smiled and said, "Of course I should. I'm very happy to have you here."

Hu Xianmei glanced at Lanxiang and said, "Mr. Chen, I heard you say before that you really like Lanxiang's work?"

Without waiting for Chen Ping'an to speak, she said to Lanxiang, "Lanxiang, Mr. Chen likes your work. I guess all of us are here because of you. Would you like to offer Mr. Chen a few glasses of wine?"

Lanxiang was about 1.7 meters tall. She was not cold at the moment because she had been drinking and there was a fire inside the curtain. She took off her coat and put on a white cashmere sweater that showed off her beautiful figure.

She raised her glass slightly. "Since Sister Hu has said so, this is for Mr. Chen. Thank you for liking my work."

Chen Pingan lowered his glass and said, "Professor Lan, you are too polite. I should be the one toasting you."

Hu Xianmei watched with a smile on her face. After the two of them finished drinking, she took the initiative to pick up the Maozi from the table on the man's side and poured wine for both Chen Ping'an and Lanxiang.

"Mr. Chen, I'd like to offer you a toast as well. Thank you for the hospitality!"

She didn't say anything else, and Chen Ping'an didn't care. He smiled and clinked glasses with her.

By the time he sat down to continue eating, Hu Xianmei had already pulled Lanxiang around and started talking to Edwards and toasting him.

In general, women in the workplace are either completely unable to drink alcohol or have a pretty good alcohol tolerance.

Coincidentally, Hu Xianmei belongs to the latter.

Edwards was drinking red wine. He picked up his glass, stood up and chatted with the two ladies with a smile.

……

When it was around ten o'clock in the evening, Chen Pingan drank about four taels of white wine, but fortunately he had eaten something, so he felt fine.

It's almost over for the woman.

Liu Qing and Lan Xiang sat side by side, and no one knew what they were talking about.

And Chen Shuhui sat on the other side.

Brianna and Delma have gone home. It is important that the little girl goes to bed early.

The other women, those without children, were still drinking, and two of them were smoking, but that was nothing.

No one cares.

The men had almost finished drinking, except for the mercenaries who were drinking and chatting. The male students were also chatting with those from the Calligraphy and Painting Academy.

Chen Ping'an swept his eyes across the room, walked over to greet them, and said that the rooms had been arranged, so everyone could have fun without worry.

It doesn't matter what time you arrive.

He walked to his father and whispered a few words to him. When his father nodded in agreement, he turned around and went to his mother and Huihui.

Liu Qing saw him coming over and asked, "What's going on?"

Chen Pingan smiled and said, "Nothing. I have to go to Paris early tomorrow morning, so I need to rest early."

When Lanxiang and others heard his voice, they stood up and looked at him.

"Uh... Professor Lan, I came here just to say hello. There are rooms in the manor, and they are all arranged."
