Although it was just fruit wine, there was still alcohol in it.
And Chi Jiao’s alcohol tolerance was never good.
After drinking ten glasses of fruit wine, her little face was flushed red and her eyes were a little dazed.
She sat on the chair with her head lowered. Her little head bobbed up and down, looking sleepy.
“Jiaojiao seems to be drunk.” Yi Lanlan whispered to Bai Weiyu as she looked at Chi Jiao.
“Looks like it, but she’s still so cute.” Bai Weiyu looked at Chi Jiao with shining eyes. Her current state was so adorable that she felt her heart melting.
“Let me send Jiaojiao home.” Xu Ye stood up.
“No need. Jiaojiao and I are going the same way. Let me send her home.” Dang Nan, who was sitting beside Chi Jiao, helped her up.
Chi Jiao was already half-asleep and in a daze.
Chi Jiao leaned heavily onto Dang Nan as she pouted. “I’m so sleepy. I want to sleep.”
Her childish voice made Xu Ye’s heart tremble.
Dang Nan glanced at Chi Jiao. She was worried about leaving her to Xu Ye.
She wasn’t the only one who was worried. Yi Lanlan and Bai Weiyu were also worried.
“We’ll accompany Xiao Nan to send Jiaojiao home. Xu Ye, you can head on home yourself,” Yi Lanlan said.
It was better for girls to send a drunk girl home.
Xu Ye felt very exasperated when he saw that the girls were guarding against him like he was a wolf.
Did he look like the kind of jerk who would take advantage of a drunk girl?
“Alright, then. I’ll help you call for a car.” Xu Ye finally compromised.

Half an hour later, Dang Nan rang the Chi family’s doorbell.
Auntie Zhou opened the door.
When Auntie Zhou saw the young girl leaning heavily against Dang Nan, she was shocked. “What happened to First Miss?”
“She’s drunk,” Dang Nan said with a sheepish smile.
“Drunk?” Auntie Zhou widened her eyes in disbelief. In her heart, Chi Jiao had always been an obedient child who would never drink.
“Auntie, I’ll help Jiaojiao to her room,” Dang Nan said.
“Let me do it,” Auntie Zhou said as she pulled Chi Jiao off of her.
“Miss, thank you for sending our First Miss home.” Auntie Zhou thanked Dang Nan. “Do you want to come in for a while?”
“No need. My friends are still waiting for me in the car. Goodbye, Auntie.” Dang Nan waved at her before turning to leave.
Auntie Zhou was a rather petite woman. Supporting Chi Jiao’s weight, she walked towards the room with difficulty.
She opened the door and helped Chi Jiao in. Suddenly, Quan Jue’s calm voice sounded out from the living room.
“Auntie Zhou, is Jiaojiao back?”
Aunt Zhou closed the door and replied, “Yes, First Miss is drunk.”
Quan Jue rushed to her as soon as she finished speaking.
Quan Jue raised an eyebrow as he looked at Chi Jiao, who was leaning on Auntie Zhou with her eyes half-closed.
“Leave her to me,” Quan Jue said calmly.
Auntie Zhou nodded and handed Chi Jiao over to him.
Quan Jue then carried Chi Jiao into her room.
Seeming to know that she was being carried by Quan Jue, her hands naturally hooked around his neck, and her little face rubbed against his chest.
“Oh, smells so good, I like it…”
She loved Brother Quan’s scent..
