Chapter 418: Chapter 418 Two Hours (2)_1

So everyone tacitly agreed to stay.

Two hours were neither too long nor too quick. Around 11:15 pm, Zhang Te's assistant got a call.

They abruptly stopped drinking and focused all their attention on him. When the others saw the reactions, they also gradually shifted their focus to Han Jingnian's side.
