He supported his chin with his palm and placed his elbow on the table just like her

"Why? don't you like handsome guys who are good at grilling?" he questioned, the wide grin on her lips slowly decreased until it turned into a frown, she exhaled then straightened her hand to look straight into his eyes.

​​

"No, handsome guys who are good at grilling are jerks," she answered with resentment clearly evident in her tone, the smile on his face immediately faded, although he knows she is drunk he also knows whatever she says now is what she really feels.

"L-Like who..."

"Li....ke Chen Kai..." she paused for a moment, making him smile again, thinking Chen Kai is the only jerk in her heart until she mentioned someone else.

"and..." she pointed her finger at him with an accusing look in her eyes, her accusing gaze pierced his heart, she placed him in the same category as Chen Kai and that alone tells him just how she feels about him.

His elbow on the table dropped, his poise straightened as he stared straight into her eyes, seconds ago they looked drunken but now, her eyes look sober, even if he wants to take it for drunken talk, he can't.

{I guess I was right to not take your confession serious, your feelings for me were momentary}

"Why?" the question slipped out of his mouth subconsciously, she also dropped her elbow just like he did and looked him straight in the eye silently.

"Because---" she exhaled strongly then she stood up and leaned towards him with both of her hands on the table.

"Because," her lashes fluttered then her lips widened to form a cute smile on her luscious lips while his eyes followed every change.

Then she chuckled to which he raised his brow in confusion.

"Just because..." she completed with a drunken grin then her support on the table weakened, her hands drop causing her face to almost fall on the table but he quickly held her head up before she slams it against the table.

He paid for the drinks and meat then he carried her on his back as he walked towards the area where he parked the car, on the walk, she murmured and breathed heavily into his ear while spouting all sort of drunken nonsense.

"Hey! you jerk!!" she screamed out of nowhere in a crowded street, he smiles with his teeth out to convince the passerby's that she is just drunk, she kept swaying her body off his back but he made sure to hold her tightly.

Suddenly she started hitting him and cussing him out on the street, attracting the attention of many passerby's.

"He must have broken her heart,"

"What a pity, she totally fell for his face,"

"What do you expect, any woman will endure heartbreak for a face like that,"

"I had better make sure my daughter is not dating someone like this,"

"He is really a jerk, how could he hurt her to this extent,"

All sort of remarks kept entering his ears as she kept displaying her drunkenness, he gritted his teeth in regret for letting her go out to drink and even ordering so many drinks for her.

"I thought she could hold her drinks, how come she is so drunk today," he muttered as he made his way past the accusing fingers pointed at him, especially when she started crying out of nowhere, this time, he regretted parking his car faraway.

{Did she know she was going to get this drunk so she told me to park far away in order to punish me)

Up until they reached the deserted street where he parked his car, her loud cries filled the entire street, he was grateful there are no officers patrolling or he will have to show his identification then that will make his situation in the military worse.

He placed his hand on the bonnet and heaved a sigh of relief as soon as they got to the car, he placed her in the shotgun seat as gentle as he could then he stretched his arm and went over to the driver's seat.

He glanced at her before turning on the engine.

In no time, they arrived at the mansion, he parked the car in the compound then he opened the door for her to come out but he noticed she is fast asleep, having no choice, he carried her on his back again.

He placed her on the couch in the living room gently then he removed his arm from her back to get her a glass of water, he returned with the water then he held her up to feed her the water, she drank the water asleep then he laid her back on the couch to return the glass cup and take a shower but she held his hand and pulled him close to her face.

With her eyes still close, she leaned forward towards him while he held his breath until she sniffed his hair then she smiled and pulled away from him.

"It smells nice...your hair," she grinned widely but she suddenly made a gawking sound, he raised his brow hoping she is not about to do what he thinks she is about to do, she made the sound again and this time he was about to move away but she pulled his collar then she dipped her face into his shirt and puked into his shirt.

"No no no no..." but it was already too late, the reek of her puke filled his nose and her face is still in his shirt, he released his breath then held her shoulder to pull her back, she still had the grin on her face even after vomiting on herself and vomiting inside his shirt.

He closed his eyes and inhaled.

"For the sake of love, there is nothing I can't endure...yes love,"

He carried her upstairs with their body reeking of puke, he carried her to the bedroom he previously decorated for her so she can freshen up in the bathroom then he instructed her to wash up since he can't take off her cloth for her and his nanny is not in the mansion.

He returned to his room to wash up, he took a quick shower then wore his satin robe and long pants then he stood in front of the mirror and ruffled his hair.

"It smells nice...your hair,"

Her words popped into his mind.

"At least she doesn't hate everything about me," he styled his hair with his hand then he returned to his room.

He was about to lie on his bed when he remembered that he left her alone in the bedroom, he became troubled as to whether she is still in the bathroom or she is done with cleaning up.

"Should I have stayed there with her, what if something happens to her?" his anxiousness could never let him lie down in the peace, he rushed towards her room as though he has confirmed she is danger, he flung open the door to the bathroom then he looked around for her in the large bathroom until he saw a figure in the bathtub.

He slowly walked towards the bathtub until the figure became more visible, he was now standing next to the bathtub when he saw her bare chest up to her cleave, he quickly turned his back to her then gulped down his saliva.

"Huh...what are you doing here," she questioned, from the tone of her voice, he could tell she is still not sober, he turned back to scold her but his eyes met her bare shoulder, he quickly turned back again.

"Why are you still here, I thought you will have changed by now," his voice shook, he waited for an answer but she became quiet then she suddenly started laughing.

"What is so funny?" he questioned.

"Squat, I want to tell you a secret,

"Just say it like this,"

She pouted her lips then beat the water in annoyance.

"Secrets are meant to be whispered, if you don't squat then I won't leave the bathtub,"

He folded her arms in resolution, he bent his head back then sighed, he wondered how she is going to feel if she remembers all her drunken act the next day.

Having no other choice, he did as he said but he made sure to avoid looking at her.

"Come closer..." he moved closer to her but he still avoided looking at her until she held his chin with both of her hands then turned his head to face her, he widened his eyes in shock but he made sure to fix his eyes on her face and not look down even though the soapy foam is covering her body, her cleave is still clearly visible.

She smiled widely then brought his face closer to hers.

"I love spending hours in a scented bath and I love drinking red wine when taking a bath, isn't that awesome," she whispered in his face, her soft breath brushed against his face, he maintained an amused expression as his eyes drifted to her slicked edges and her wet hair draped on her shoulder.

His eyes scrutinised her face closely from her edges to her chin.

"Awesome...everything you do is awesome," he responded in a soft voice
