During dinner, wine was naturally served, both white and red.
Liu Qing couldn't be special when he was having a team-building with his company's subordinates, so he followed suit and drank a glass of wine.
It was not white wine, but red wine. It was about one or two taels.
This bit of wine could make him drunk, but it wouldn't make him drunk to the point where he would spill everything out.
There were also people who toasted him. This was an unavoidable behavior.
However, those people were all his subordinates. As the leader, he said that he could not drink too much. No one forced him to drink.
If one of them was politely rejected, no one would continue to do that.
The drinking culture in the workplace had a strict hierarchy. There would only be bullying from the top down, and there would not be things that offended the top.
