In the following round, many frequent mistakes were made all around. When it came to Ye Youyou's turn, she was no longer as alert as she had been before Soon enough, the balloon came tumbling down.
Just as she automatically picked up her cup of whiskey as a forfeit, a hand shot out to stop her. Li Jinnan finished his glass in one gulp.
The whole place bubbled with enthusiasm. The crowd hooted away.
In the next four or five rounds, Ye Youyou's mind was in the clouds. Not only could she not receive the balloon, she couldn't even grip it securely. Without fail, before she could make her move, Li Jinnan had already carried out the forfeit on her behalf and drank the contents in his glass.
After the last glass, Ye Youyou became a little concerned and said, "Let's stop playing. GM Li, you've drunk too much!"
Wu Ren also felt that the game was going a little too far and gave his wife a look.
When his wife saw the look that he shot her, she immediately protested, "No way! I haven't had enough fun yet! Come, let's continue!"
Wu Ren dropped his head into his hands in exasperation. When his wife saw that, she knew immediately that she had read him wrong.
But, once the words were out, how could she take them back? She had no choice but to stick to her guns and say, "It's fine if you want out. You just need to pay to forfeit by drinking a glass. Besides, Lao San here can help you..."
The moment she said that, Li Jinnan finished yet another glass without a second word. He Ye Youyou's arm as he said, "We're off. Continue on your own."
"Wow!"
"How dashing!"
"Third Brother! Watch out for the aftereffects!"
...
By then, the Third Brother had already left.
Ye Youyou was worried too. This aftereffects of hard liquor were very strong, and Li Jinnan had downed several glasses in succession. He was soon going to be in a lot of discomfort.
When the exited the bar, they found the floor outside to be wet. The rain had long stopped, but it was late. There weren't many taxis around.
Both of them had drank alcohol. Hence, neither of them even thought of driving back.
Li Jinnan stood beside the traffic light. When a gust of cold wind blew past, he felt a little dizzy. He closed his eyes momentarily and felt his face heat up.
Through sheer will, he shook himself up and said, "I'll take you home before heading back to the hotel."
Ye Youyou found that option unlikely. She looked at him with doubt all over her face."Are you even able to?"
Li Jinnan squinted his eyes. The corners of his mouth twitched a little, almost imperceptibly. He turned to Ye Youyou with a strange expression on his face and declared, "A man has to possess the ability."
Ye Youyou was startled when she heard it. Her face heated in a blush. She quickly turned around without saying anything else.
He was still so full of energy despite drinking so much. He was pretty formidable after all. From the looks of it, she had been worried over nothing.
They stood in the wind for a few minutes before a taxi finally pulled up in front of them. Li Jinnan sat in the passenger seat in front. Ye Youyou sat at the back trying to recuperate from the aftereffects of the alcohol.
All in all, she had only drank one full glass of whiskey. She only felt a little dizzy. She was nowhere near drunk. She leaned her head on the headrest and closed her eyes for a moment. Soon, they reached their destination.
Ye Youyou opened the door and alighted from the car. She called out, "GM Li, I'm going inside!" There was no reply, but she didn't pay it any attention.
She was about to turn and leave when the taxi driver stopped her."Miss, this GM Li of yours has passed out! Where do you think you're going? Where will I send him? Who will pay for the fare?"
Ye Youyou stopped in her tracks and turned back to look. Li Jinnan's head was leaning back, and his eyes were closed. His face was beet red. Every breath he exhaled was filled with alcoholic fumes.
The taxi driver had spoken quite loudly, but that hadn't been able to wake Li Jinnan up.
Ye Youyou's brows scrunched together. She felt her head throb. Indeed, her worry had come to pass. What am I to do now? I can't very well bring him into my home to sleep!
