Before Gu Yixuan could speak, she took the initiative and said, "Hey, brother. I’m not coming home tonight, so don’t wait up for me, okay?"
Hearing the noisy music in the background, Gu Yixuan immediately understood she was at a bar. Her words were strange, but it took him less than half a second to understand what she meant.
"Where are you?" he asked in a deep voice.
"I met a friend at the ’Perfume’ bar, and I’m going to his place tonight, so I won’t be coming back," Mo Ran glanced at Chen Yao and said with a light smile.
Gu Yixuan immediately turned on his computer and started searching for the location of the ’Perfume’ bar.
"Stay there and don’t leave; I’ll be there as soon as I can."
"What friend? It’s Chen Yao, an old classmate from high school. He’s hosting a party today and invited me over. That’s it, brother. My phone’s about to die, so I’m hanging up." Mo Ran had just finished speaking when her phone automatically shut down, thankfully she made the call quickly.
She casually picked up the bottle and poured two glasses of wine.
Handing one to Chen Yao, she said, "Come on, Mr. Chen, let’s have a drink. My brother has agreed I don’t need to come home tonight."
"Nainai, you’re the most considerate woman I’ve ever met. Come on, let’s drink to our hearts’ content tonight."
"Alright, to our hearts’ content."
They drank one glass after another, Chen Yao intending to get her drunk, while she was delaying time, waiting for Gu Yixuan to arrive. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novelꜰire.net
Soon, after two or three drinks, Mo Ran felt her head getting woozy. Any more and she’d definitely be drunk.
"No good, it’s not fun to drink . Let’s play rock-paper-scissors," she began to cheat.
Chen Yao thought that wasn’t a bad idea, put his hand on Mo Ran’s shoulder, leaned in, and asked, "How do we play?"
"We play rock-paper-scissors; whoever loses, drinks."
They started playing rock-paper-scissors. In the first two rounds, Chen Yao intentionally lost to her, and then he started winning. Mo Ran ended up drinking four glasses in a row.
She shook her head and thought to herself in dismay, "This is bad, I’m about to pass out. Where is Gu Yixuan?"
Her eyes turned to the dance floor, and she suddenly had an idea.
Grabbing Chen Yao’s hand, she pointed to the dance floor and slurred, "Mr. Chen, let’s go dance!"
Chen Yao had already humored her for a while, and now she wanted to dance, which he obviously disagreed with. The only thing he wanted was to take her away and get a room...
"Not going, Nainai, you’re already drunk," he pulled her back.
