Xu Wan tilted her head and watched the man pour the wine, smiling foolishly as she said, "Everyone says to enjoy life while you can. I'm happy doing anything with you. But sometimes I understand that this happiness may not last forever, so I'm willing to indulge myself a little more in this short time."
When Xu Wan said that, Jiang Tingzhou knew she was drunk.
When she is sober, even if she feels pessimistic, she will not say it out loud.
"You're already drunk, do you still want to drink this?"
"Um!"
Xu Wan answered very decisively.
Jiang Tingzhou raised his hand and said to the shopkeeper, "Another bottle of beer, please."
After the beer was brought over, Jiang Tingzhou said to Xu Wan, "Since you want to drink, I'll drink with you today."
"Alright! Let's drink until we drop!"
Xu Wan said this, but she was clearly drunk.
Jiang Tingzhou has a high alcohol tolerance; he can easily drink ten bottles of beer, let alone two, though he might need to go to the bathroom more often.
The two sat at the roadside stall for nearly half an hour. Xu Wan drank five or six glasses of beer, and her neck could barely support her head before Jiang Tingzhou paid the bill and took the woman home.
For safety reasons, Jiang Tingzhou asked Lü Wei to drive to pick him up.
From the moment Xu Wan got into the car, she clung to Jiang Tingzhou like an octopus, refusing to let go.
She fell asleep shortly afterward.
The car was parked downstairs at his home, and Jiang Tingzhou simply picked the woman up and carried her upstairs in the elevator.
When he got home, he didn't even bother to change his shoes before carrying the woman to the bedroom.
Just as Jiang Tingzhou placed Xu Wan on the master bedroom bed, the woman, who had been fast asleep, groggily opened her eyes, looked at Jiang Tingzhou who was about to leave, and grabbed the tie hanging in front of her.
"Don't leave..."
Xu Wan tugged at the man's tie, her voice as soft as a kitten's.
Jiang Tingzhou gently patted the woman's head and said good-naturedly, "I'll go change my shoes."
"oh……"
Xu Wan let go, but her face was full of grievance.
Seeing this, Jiang Tingzhou simply sat on the bed, took the woman's hand, and said, "Forget it, I won't go. I'll stay here with you."
Xu Wan, her eyes half-open and half-asleep, looked at the man in front of her and said, "I want you to stay with me forever, and never go to be with anyone else."
"I'm your husband, who else should I spend time with if not you?" Jiang Tingzhou raised his hand and tapped the woman's pert nose. "Little drunkard."
“I will accompany... people like you, people who are as rich, as good-looking, and as smart as you…” Xu Wan held Jiang Tingzhou’s hand tightly. “Actually, I know we are not from the same world. You only belong to me temporarily, but I am already very satisfied.”
Jiang Tingzhou's expression turned serious.
He brushed the stray hairs from the woman's cheek and asked, "Wanwan, is that what you really think?"
Xu Wan closed her sleepy eyes gently and didn't say another word.
Soon, the sound of even breathing could be heard.
She actually fell asleep at this time!
-
Because of the alcohol, Xu Wan slept very soundly.
When she woke up, she tried to turn over, only to find that the man's heavy arm was around her waist.
Xu Wan secretly glanced at him and saw that the man was still asleep. She originally wanted to move the man's hand away to get up.
She had barely moved when the man suddenly tightened his arms around her, pulling her close as if afraid she would run away.
The next second, a greeting rang out: "Awake? You little drunkard."
Xu Wan was half asleep.
The words "little drunkard" gradually filled her mind with memories of last night...
It seems she really did drink a lot yesterday, quite a bit.
Xu Wan buried her face in her hands. "I'm sorry, I think I was too happy yesterday, so I overdid it and drank a lot of alcohol. I won't do it again."
"What's there to apologize for? With me, you can do whatever you want." Jiang Tingzhou propped his ear up with his arm. "But... do you remember what you said after you got home yesterday?"
What did I say?
In Xu Wan's memory, she seemed to go to sleep very soon after returning home, and she didn't remember saying anything.
Jiang Tingzhou held Xu Wan in his arms, his dark eyes fixed intently on the woman before him, and said, "Think it over carefully. People speak the truth when they're drunk."
