情深不及久伴久伴不如酒伴
[qíng shēn bù jí jiŭ bàn jiŭ bàn bù rú jiŭ bàn]
It means that deep affection falls short compared to being long-term together but even that does not compare to companionship during drinks, hinting a unique value placed on friendships or relationships formed through shared activities like drinking.
