Chapter 1412 Stability
| | | -> -> There was a lot of toasting and laughing. Everyone at the dinner table talked and laughed.
The glass in front of Aiden also changed from fruit juice to wine.
This kid doesn't know how many times he has been drunk in private, and if he pretends to be on the dinner table, he is just deceiving himself and others.
As for drinking, as long as there is a limit, neither Li Zitao nor Mary will object.
As a man, it's okay to drink a little alcohol, but if you are addicted to alcohol, your temperament will change drastically after drinking, or you will go crazy after drinking, then there is a problem.
Fortunately, this has never happened in their family, but there are some gaffes...
"You have to control yourself when you drink, don't make yourself look like a drunk." Li Zitao raised his glass and clinked glasses with his son.
"Hey..." Aiden smiled coyly, and took a small sip of guilt.
He lost his composure a lot, not because he couldn't control himself, but because he was deliberately indulging, releasing his inner dissatisfaction, pressure and anger.
As long as it is a living creature, no matter its identity, status, or age, it will have its own troubles and pressures.
The same is true for Aiden, who is precocious and burdened with heavy expectations. Li Zitao can understand his indulgence, but he also has to warn him not to continue to indulge.
Occasional indulgence is normal, long-term indulgence becomes depravity, and he does not allow and has no right to choose depravity.
"Tina." Mary put down the shrimp claws in her hand, wiped the corner of her mouth with a clean white tablecloth and said to Christina, "You should watch him more."
"Cough..." Christina, who was eating happily, was in a hurry to speak, and swallowed quickly, but almost choked and coughed.
Taking a sip of the champagne in front of him, he nodded smoothly and said, "Yes, father, I will remind the boss."
"Boss." Every time he heard Christina say these two words, Li Zitao felt like laughing and in a daze.
"What? Did you suddenly find yourself getting old?" Norma joked carelessly.
"Is there?" Li Zitao spread his hands and twisted his body to let her see clearly. I am still facing the wind in the jade tree. I don't want to be unrestrained. The foundation of 4 hours is still...
"Ahem." Little Mary coughed inexplicably.
After being stared at by everyone, he hurriedly lowered his head to wipe it off, twitched his temples with his fingers unnaturally, and hurriedly picked up a glass to drink to divert his attention.
Li Zitao shook his head in his heart when he saw this deceitful behavior, but on the surface he just asked curiously: "Are you all right?"
"It's okay." Little Mary shook her head, and her expression finally returned to normal.
Glancing at her husband and then at her sister, Mary didn't think about anything else at all, and put the topic back on her son.
"Understood, mother, I won't get drunk in the future." After being nagged by his mother, Aiden quickly raised his hands in surrender to promise.
He knew very well how troublesome it would be for his mother to take it seriously. If she was really made to take this matter seriously, it would be a question mark whether he could touch the wine glass in the future.
Norma was also whispering to little Mary beside her, but her eyes were looking at Eric.
His non-stop winking made Norma feel helpless, and finally she had to stand up and take a spoonful of soup, tasted it and said, "This soup is delicious, who learned it from?"
"Hill, she taught me.
"Eric immediately laughed foolishly, scratching his head and talking happily.
But at the dining table, everyone talked about yours and I talked about mine, and they were not very interested in the names he mentioned.
The atmosphere was a bit awkward, but it was just here with Eric, Norma sipped the soup, and continued talking and laughing with little Mary.
As for the others, they only drink soup, and it doesn't matter who taught them.
"You're in such a hurry." After dinner, Norma took Eric to find a quiet place to talk.
"How can we not be in a hurry, I have already said it, but was rejected in front of Hill." Eric said with a bitter face.
He is now the first and second eldest, if he had known earlier, he should have said hello in advance.
I thought that with Li Zitao and Mary's kind personalities, even if they disagreed, they would not refuse in person.
Seeing him, he just forgot that kindness only exists when facing his own people. If it was true kindness, Li Zitao and Mary would have been swallowed with flesh and blood by jackals outside.
It's no wonder others are in this situation.
It was Eric who wanted to force the palace first, but now he put himself on the ladder, and he couldn't go up or down.
"If you ask me, there is no result between you and Hill." Norma said with certainty.
"You know what, I'm with her," Eric said angrily.
The more people say Hill is bad, the more determined he is to marry him. Animals are rebellious by nature, and humans are no exception...
"Do you know what she has done?" Norma couldn't help shouting, but she reacted and hurriedly lowered her voice.
That expression is like a kitten being irritated. When it wants to get angry, it suddenly sees its owner, and instinctively closes its throat.
"I know, but she has a reason." Eric was still stubborn.
"Crazy, you are really crazy." Norma pointed at him, stamping her feet back and forth angrily.
"It's up to you. If you really want to do this, you will be the one who will regret it in the end." Norma shook her hand fiercely, turned and walked towards the living room.
She was afraid that if she stayed any longer, she couldn't help but slap Eric twice.
"Is Mason okay in London? I haven't heard from him for a long time." In the living room, little Mary was having a long conversation with her sister.
Although the two sisters are both in New York now, the number of times they can see each other is very few.
The main reason is that Mary is always away. After the two-day war ended, she was busier than before, either flying or on the way to fly...
Meetings, preparations, on-site, various fundraising, activities, dance parties, one after another, exhausted even the effort to breathe...
Li Zitao really couldn't bear to see her, and after a few times of persuasion to no avail, he didn't say anything, but told the people around her to take good care of her and pay attention to her influence.
