Due to the alcohol and their high spirits, they all began to lose their balance, especially Ling Qingxuan and Zhou Tianyu. Since neither of them could drive while tipsy, they had no choice but to request the waiter to call for a taxi.
The waiter helped Wen Xinya into the car and she informed the driver of her desired destination before closing her eyes and dozing off. Due to the alcohol, she felt extremely warm and uncomfortable. Hence, she could not sleep well.
A long time later, Wen Xinya was nudged awake.
“Miss, Miss… we’re here!”
“Ah, stop making such a din!” Wen Xinya smacked the driver’s hand away and changed her position before continuing to sleep.
The driver had no choice but to push her again. He screeched. “Miss, you’ve already arrived at your destination. It’s time you alighted.”
“Oh! I’ll alight…” Wen Xinya snapped out of her trance and pushed the door open. As soon as she did, she realized that she had not paid for her fare yet. She then retrieved 100 yuan from her bag and stuffed it into the driver’s hand. “There you go! You don’t have to give me the change…”
The driver obviously wouldn’t shortchange her. Just as he was about to look for some loose change, he caught sight of her alighting from the car. “Miss, be careful. Don’t hit your head…”
At the instant that the driver said those words, Wen Xinya banged her head against the door of the car, causing her to tear up in pain. She then slipped and fell onto the ground.
Whenever she felt pain, she would feel extremely aggrieved. She whipped out her mobile phone and dialed Si Yiyan’s number anxiously before bawling loudly. “Si Yiyan… I’m in so much pain!”
Si Yiyan was just wondering why she was acting out of the ordinary by calling him at such a late hour. Upon hearing her bawling, his heart skipped a beat and he frantically asked, “What’s wrong? Did something happen? Which part of your body hurts? Hurry and tell me.”
Due to how worried he was, Si Yiyan did not notice that she had gotten drunk.
Wen Xinya’s mind was sent into a frenzy and she bawled loudly. “The car is so mean to me. It hit me on the hit and it hurts so much…”
Si Yiyan listened to her slurred words and her muffled voice. He recovered from the shock and his forehead creased into a frown. “Have you been drinking?”
His tone was stern and menacing, all because of Wen Xinya’s poor liquor level. Whenever she drank, she would become extremely immature and act like a child. She would throw a terrible tantrum. Of course… alcohol would give her courage and bravery to do whatever she wanted.
He thought about the time when she got drunk and began behaving hysterically, after which he grew extremely upset. Ever since then, he would get extremely worried whenever she drank by herself outside. Of course… he was afraid that others might harbor ill intentions about her.
Wen Xinya giggled and said, “Hehe, I only drank a little bit… I remember. I’m not allowed to drink! I’m so obedient. I deserve to be complimented, praised and rewarded…” Wen Xinya burped and continued, “I still want hugs and kisses!”
Yet, she was the one who got drunk out of her senses and began playing with mud!
Si Yiyan gritted his teeth and said austerely, “Turns out you still remember that I forbade you from drinking. Don’t worry, I’ll reward you handsomely. ”
Wen Xinya felt a sudden chill down her spine and hugged her arms, rubbing the goosebumps on them. “Si Yiyan, I’m telling you… Zhou Tianyu actually took Gu Junling for me and began kissing him furiously, claiming that she wanted to become a lesbian. It was worse for Ling Qingxuan. He hugged Gu Junling and begged him for kisses… Hahaha… it’s hilarious.”
A sullen expression formed on his face and he… finally understood what “birds of the same feather flock together” meant. He questioned sternly, “Where are you now? Do you need me to pick you up?”
Wen Xinya chuckled incessantly and frantically said, “No, no, I’m not drunk. I can hail a taxi myself. I did that just now…”
In fact, drunk people often claimed that they were not drunk.
Si Yiyane screeched again. “What? You got into a taxi by yourself? It’s already so late… You’re a girl and you’re drunk. How could you call for a taxi? Are your brains fried? Aren’t you afraid of getting kidnapped again? Or do you think that you’re not beautiful enough? Safety… do you know what safety is? Since you are drunk, why didn’t you call me to go pick you up?”
Si Yiyan was fuming with anger, though he also felt anxious and worried. He was worried that she had given the wrong address to the driver and even more worried about her safety, especially since she was beautiful and had a great figure. If something were to happen…
Si Yiyan was actually delusional. He felt that all men in the world were eying her, and he was even afraid that she would be molested in the cab.
Wen Xinya continued chuckling while drooling.
Si Yiyan was extremely done with her. He began to find himself to be extremely foolish for trying to talk sense into a drunk woman. He took a deep breath and asked calmly, “Where are you now?”
Wen Xinya scanned her surroundings with her eyes glassed over and she said, “I’ve arrived at the Wen Family home…”
I think I’m at the Wen Family home! I’m not sure.
Si Yiyan heaved a sigh of relief and flung his coat onto the chair. However, she said, “No… it seems to be the Mo Family home.”
His heart began to palpitate and he felt that he shouldn’t have believed that a drunk woman would know how to make her way home by herself.
Si Yiyan rubbed his forehead worriedly and barked. “Wen Xinya, are you so drunk that you can’t remember anything? You’re really something, huh? I’ve been too indulgent towards you. Is it…” Suddenly realizing that he was being too ungentlemanly by flaring up at a drunk woman, he asked in a mellower tone, “Xinya, tell me properly, where are you now? I’ll go fetch you, alright?”
No! She doesn’t even know where she is. Why do I have to be gentlemanly? She ought to count her blessings that I’m not at my wits’ end.
Feeling giddy, Wen Xinya answered, “I don’t think I’m at the Mo Family home! There isn’t such a large lawn outside the Mo Family home. There aren’t such tall street lamps either… Si Yiyan, the street lamps are terrible. They’re blinding me and making me giddy…”
Si Yiyan burst into laughter. According to her description, she was right at Lishan Mansion. “Stay there obediently. I’ll come out to pick you up now.”
Did Heaven send this lass here to torture me?
She had already made her way to his doorstep, just as he was feeling worried and contemplating if he should go to Jiayuan Club to look for her.
