Hearing that Fang Tangtang wanted to go home first, Jiang Xiaobai frowned immediately. However, she let it go soon after because Fang Tangtang’s family was quite strict in her upbringing, especially regarding curfew; if she didn’t go back now, she would have to face a harsh scolding when she returned.
“Alright, then. Be careful and text me once you reach home.”
“Don’t worry about me. You should worry about yourself instead…” With that, Fang Tangtang glanced at the unconscious Xiao Su as she smiled at Jiang Xiaobai mysteriously. “Time is precious. Buck up, sister!”
Upon hearing that, Jiang Xiaobai felt exasperated immediately. What the hell is she talking about?
However, before she could ask Fang Tangtang about that, she had already disappeared.
Having no other choice, she just climbed into the co-driver seat and told the driver her address.
As night had fallen, Jiang Xiaobai dragged Xiao Su back to her house and threw him on the couch. She was so tired that she panted heavily.
“What did this asshole eat growing up? He’s so f*cking heavy!”
With that, she turned around to go into the kitchen to pour herself a glass of water and gulped it down with her heart still beating fast. However, when she walked out, she saw that Xiao Su had fallen off the couch to the ground, and she narrowed her eyes in exasperation immediately.
She was so tired that she didn’t have any energy to move him anymore. Since he fell on his own, he might as well as sleep on the floor tonight.
Since Jiang Xiaobai supported Xiao Su to her place just now, she also had the smell of beer on her body. On top of that, not long after Xiao Su entered the living room, the entire house reeked of alcohol.
Hence, Jiang Xiaobai opened the windows to let the smell dissipate and took her clothes to shower.
Initially, she thought that she was being too careless about showering with a man in her house. However, since that man was so wasted, Jiang Xiaobai was not worried about anything at all. Right now, he was no different from a corpse. Sure indeed, after she finished her shower, Xiao Su was still immobile on the floor.
Tsk.
Even if an earthquake suddenly happened, I bet he wouldn’t wake up to escape as well.
After drying her hair, Jiang Xiaobai walked to Xiao Su to kick his leg. “Hey, I did not bring you back here deliberately. It’s just that I felt I couldn’t leave you alone like that after meeting you there. I was worried that you might encounter some accidents if you were left on the streets alone, so I kindly brought you back. You can only stay a night here, and you’ll have to leave tomorrow. On top of that, you are not allowed to tell anyone about the incidents tonight!”
However, Xiao Su merely frowned without any reply.
“And you’ll be sleeping on the floor tonight! If you don’t reply, I’ll take it as you’ve agreed!”
Having no knowledge about the one-way conversation, Xiao Su was left alone on the floor pitifully. Jiang Xiaobai walked back to her room and took a hairdryer to dry her hair. Before she lay on her bed, she locked her room carefully.
After all, a man was under the same roof as she was, and he was drunk. What if he suddenly went crazy and barged into her room in the middle of the night?
Jiang Xiaobai wasn’t sure if it was because of the glass of alcohol, but she felt quite uncomfortable once she lay down. The reason might also be that she felt uncomfortable with another person in her house, so she couldn’t fall asleep after tossing around in bed.
At midnight, Jiang Xiaobai suddenly thought of something and took a blanket before walking out of the room.
When she switched the lights on, Jiang Xiaobai was immediately speechless as Xiao Su still remained the same posture on the ground without moving an inch.
She walked over and placed the blanket on him while grumbling, “I’m just too softhearted to have brought you home and even given you a blanket.”
With that, Jiang Xiaobai suddenly realized that Xiao Su’s brows were furrowed together, and he was looking quite uncomfortable as sweat broke out on his forehead.
Seeing the way he looked right now, Jiang Xiaobai relented again and went into the kitchen to make some hangover-cure soup. Then, she went back to feed Xiao Su the soup.
He was so terribly drunk that he was in no shape to drink it on his own. However, Jiang Xiaobai was quite a strong woman, so Xiao Su could do nothing about it. After all, she was able to move such a huge man back to her place, so she was not a dainty woman.
After that, Jiang Xiaobai sat down beside Xiao Su and grabbed his clothes to place his head on her lap. Then, she pinched his cheeks to forcefully feed him the soup through his opened mouth.
At the beginning, he was controlled by her like a robot. After some time, perhaps due to the soup, he started to have some reactions. When the spoon slid into his mouth, he unconsciously wanted to spit the soup out.
Jiang Xiaobai seemed to have known what he was about to do and pinched his mouth immediately as she threatened fiercely, “If you dare to spit it out, I’ll throw you out.”
The threat worked, for Xiao Su swallowed the soup back after a while. After that, Jiang Xiaobai finished feeding him the bowl of soup and wiped his forehead with a towel as she lamented, “If I had known that I had to do so many things, I would have left you there to fend for yourself.”
Forget it. I’ll collect some money from him tomorrow morning.
Thinking about the prospect of money, Jiang Xiaobai moved Xiao Su to the couch so that he wouldn’t think that she hadn’t been treating him well the next morning.
After doing all this, just as Jiang Xiaobai was about to leave, her wrist was suddenly held by someone.
She turned around and saw that Xiao Su was grabbing her slender wrist with his eyes shut. She glared at him and tried to retrieve her hand.
However, as soon as he felt that she was about to leave him, he held her hand even tighter.
“What the hell? Are you taking advantage of me?” Jiang Xiaobai roared at him.
However, Xiao Su didn’t seem to hear her. Instead, he was mumbling something that made Jiang Xiaobai bend down curiously to listen to him.
“Don’t go… Don’t go… Don’t leave me…”
As soon as Jiang Xiaobai heard that, she remained silent with a disgusted expression on her face. Of course, she understood what was going on now. This brokenhearted man was probably asking the woman he loved to stay.
She shook her hand. “Let me go. You’ve got the wrong person.”
“Don’t go…”
Jiang Xiaobai wanted to take her hand back, but she had underestimated the strength of a man, especially a drunk one who had no control over his strength.
Although she was considered quite strong among other women, in front of a man, her strength was nothing.
After a while, Jiang Xiaobai didn’t retrieve her hand from his grasp.
Instead, she sat down beside him and looked at him blankly.
Now that she was not trying to leave, Xiao Su also remained quiet. However, he still held onto Jiang Xiaobai’s hand tightly.
After looking at Xiao Su, Jiang Xiaobai realized that he was quite good looking. However, there was a scar on his face. She wondered if this was the reason the woman he loved didn’t love him back.
However, to Jiang Xiaobai, she didn’t look down on his scar at all.
