Respondents: Zong Luo, Yu Beizhou
Note: The questions will be answered live
1.How do you address each other?
“When I’m angry, I call him by his name, usually Beizhou, occasionally Huainan.”
“Hmm, how do I address him? (Second respondent pondering)
“Senior brother, or Jin Yu, sometimes Your Majesty.”
2.When and where did you two meet?
“Ghost Valley.”
3.What was your first impression of each other?
(First respondent who didn’t forget to review memorials while answering slightly paused) “Although he looked very cute and obedient, I completely lost interest when I thought about his description in the book, I just wanted to turn around and leave.”
“When Senior brother first saw me in the Ghost Valley, he looked like he had seen a ghost. (Second respondent sighed) “I was wondering, he was clearly coveting my body before, why suddenly keep a distance…but I have to admit, this Senior brother is much more interesting than before.”
4.What do you like about each other?
“…” (First respondent was silent for a long time, finally gave up) “He is a paper man stuck on my xp!”
(Second respondent couldn’t help laughing, laughed for a full three minutes before answering a question that was off-topic) “I like Senior brother the most.”
5.What do you think of each other’s personality?
“Arbitrary, but reliable in important matters.”
“Open and aboveboard.”
6.What animal do you think best describes the other?
“His ugly goshawk is quite suitable.”
“A crane.”
7.Do you think you and the other person are compatible?
“…Hmm.”
“Of course, my Senior brother and I are naturally the most enviable pair in heaven and earth.”
8.If you were to give a gift to the other person, what would you choose?
“A wood carving made by myself.”
“Rare ancient books, or famous swords in the world.”
9.Is there anything you are dissatisfied with about the other person?
(First respondent gritting his teeth) “Yes, every time I ask him to stop, but he never listens!”
(Second respondent with a tone of resentment) “Senior brother never lets people indulge.”
10.To what extent has your relationship reached?
“All the people in the country know.” (With a sigh)
“Even a certain old father in heaven knows.” (Schadenfreude)
11.What does the other person say that makes you feel helpless?
“When he uses that damn face that pokes my xp, and acts like a puppy in front of me.”
“For Senior brother’s words, just calling my name will make me feel helpless.”
12.Have you ever quarreled?
“Of course, we still quarrel occasionally now.” (Getting angry as he speaks) “Some people just start a dye shop when they get some paint, they are too much!”
“We used to have life-and-death fights, but fortunately, Senior brother cherishes this delicate flower of mine.” (Saying while getting closer)
13.How do you make up in the end?
(First respondent refuses to answer)
(Second respondent lowers his voice with a smile)
“Usually, just having another conversation with Senior brother will do.”
14.What will you prepare for the other person’s birthday?
“For Beizhou, because of some reasons, he doesn’t like birthdays.” (First respondent shakes his head) “But I will accompany him privately.”
“Senior brother’s birthday is a national event, having a banquet with the ministers, I can only warm the bed at night.” (Second respondent shakes his head and sighs)
15.When do you feel loved?
“Probably when someone indulges unreasonably.”
“When Senior himself is clearly unconscious, but still tries hard to respond to me.” (Laughs)
16.What is your way of expressing love?
“Just…more subtle, introverted.”
“Passionate, of course, it should be shown anytime, anywhere.”
17.What expression does the other person look best with?
(First respondent suddenly blushes) “Well…every time on the night of the full moon, he would roll on the ground, using that voice…to flirt.”
“When Senior brother is working, can’t say anything else.”
18.Who confessed first?
“Strictly speaking, it should be me. After all, this stinky junior brother couldn’t even distinguish between love and hate at first. At such times, one must show some elder’s consciousness.” (Helpless)
(Second respondent, suddenly excited) “It was Senior!”
19.What clothes do you think the other person looks best in?
“He usually loves to wear red clothes, which look very good. This color is hard to control, love and hate are both very intense and distinct, very suitable for him.”
“Imperial robes of the Yuan Dynasty.”
20.Have you been obstructed by anyone when you were together?
(First respondent shows a nostalgic look) “Of course, when our feelings were not clear at first, Father Emperor saw the clues and tried to nip it in the bud, but in the end, he blessed us on his sickbed.”
(Second respondent snorts) “By a meddlesome old guy, he even wanted to choose for Senior brother a…” (Before finishing speaking, he was slapped on the head by first respondent)
21.When did he make you feel heartache?
“Tell me everything, the night when the truth came out.” (First respondent paused a little) “I saw my pale face in his eyes, and also saw his madness.”
(Second respondent’s smile suddenly faded) “When Senior brother was covered in blood and fell outside the city, his body gradually became cold.”
22.Before you were together, did you imagine the current situation?
“Not at all, I thought we would be enemies for life.”
“No.”
23.Who is the matchmaker for your love?
“Haha, of course, thanks to myself who traveled through the book from the 21st century, otherwise, with Yu Beizhou’s wooden head, he would never be enlightened!”
(Second respondent shows an innocent smile)
24.After reincarnation, would you still want to continue to be lovers?
“In a strict sense, he and I have been entangled for three lifetimes.” (First respondent smiles helplessly)
“Of course, forever. Senior brother can only be entangled with me, until death do us part.”

[A Mini Drama]
“That should be enough.”
His Royal Highness of Great Yuan, dressed in a red robe, quickly raised his hand, sounding dissatisfied. “Our His Majesty is busy with state affairs, there are so many memorials piled up, there’s no time for more interviews.”
“Besides, it’s been two years since the end, and they’re still pulling us out for interviews, late at night, don’t they know that a moment of spring night is worth a thousand gold!”
Hearing this, Zong Luo showed a disagreeable expression. “Beizhou, don’t talk to Wang Ya like that, after all, she is the author, strictly speaking, she is our mother. Besides, several other drama groups next door have also been pulled out to work overtime. It is said that a drama group called [Jing Lian] has been working overtime for three years since its completion, and they don’t even have overtime pay! Although we also don’t have wages, at least we don’t have to write papers, isn’t the interview mode much more relaxed?”
“Oh, Senior brother, you know, I’ve wiped out the entire Yu family, where do I get a mother? (Shaking his head)”
Zong Luo: “…”
A certain host: “…”
A certain host (sweating): “Ahahaha, let’s call it a day then.”
Who dares to provoke you, living father!
Author’s Note:
Here’s another couple working overtime without pay, I, Yaya, am deeply sinful!
TL: I’m guessing Jing Lian ‘惊练’ is [Thriller Trainee] ‘惊悚练习生’? I couldn’t find any other novels from her works that have these two characters, anyway, if I’m wrong, please forgive me.
And that concludes the novel [Would You Like to Have a Drink]. Thank you for coming along this journey with me, although there were many bumps on the way, still very thankful that I got to finish this wonderful novel along with you guys. Also please support Author Wang Ya for creating such a masterpiece, really really an amazing novel.
👏👏👏👏
Gosh. I love this story! At first i resented Emperor Yuan but the plot twist. Such fatherly love! This was really a slowburn romance for real! It took 100+ chapters almost the end for them to be together. But i really love Zong Luo and Yu Beizhou.
I LOVE IT SO MUCH AAAAA I WISH THERR WERE MORE MODERN SETTING CHAPTERS 10000/10
10000000/10 I love them so much, Thank you for translation!
*claps* amazing story, thank you so much for translating this!
Don’t know how many times I cried whole reading this. Their love and hate, Father emperor’s love ready made one cry.
Many thanks ☺️
Dear translator, thank you for your hard work! This novel was very uneven but I think it was ultimately worth it. The initial idea was quite good but I feel like the pacing was rather weird.
I was also not a fan of the s** scenes because of all the awkward euphemisms and excruciating descriptions. Unfortunately, I wasn’t very into the romance, mostly because I believe that YBZ didn’t really prove his love for ZL after acknowledging his feelings.
The palace intrigue parts were the best for me. Although, I wish the author had invested more time to one of the elements that stood out in the beginning, the competition among the different schools of thought for political and social hegemony. I believe that would have been quite interesting if properly developed.
