"Xiaonuan... I can definitely drink more than him! Do... you believe me?" he said, tilting his head back, about to pour the drink down his throat.

However, before he could drink, he swayed and fell into Xiaonuan’s arms.

Xia Xiaonuan was speechless, surrounded by the smell of alcohol, and looked across at Liang Shaochen, who similarly fell with a "thud."

What are these two men doing, competing over alcohol?

As if proving their drinking capacity would prove something.

Xia Xiaonuan looked around and spotted the bodyguards in the corner, shouting, "What are you waiting for? Come and help them back!"

"Yes!" The bodyguards quickly stepped forward.

"Xiaonuan... Xiaonuan... I... I won..." Nangong Yaoling mumbled in a daze when she pulled him up, not forgetting to point at Liang Shaochen across from him.

Nangong Zhongli stood not far away, having witnessed the scene unfold.

Seeing Liang Shaochen collapse, a touch of bitterness emerged in her pupils.

Shaochen, do you really think you can defeat my brother? You are too naive! This woman has never cared about you from the beginning.

She thought to herself, helplessly stepping forward to support Liang Shaochen.

"Shaochen, you’re drunk, let me help you back..."

"Go away, I’m not drunk... I’m... I’m not drunk..."

"Miss Zhong Li, let us handle this!" the bodyguards quickly said.

Nangong Zhongli nodded.

*****

Back at home, the bodyguards placed Nangong Yaoling on the bed in the bedroom.

She helped him take off his jacket, shoes, and tie.

He was dead drunk.

Xia Xiaonuan tidied him up, covering him with a blanket.

Sitting by the bed, she looked at the handsome man and couldn’t help but smile.

She reached out her hand, gently touching the man’s cheek with her fingertips.

At that moment, suddenly, a hand grabbed her hand tightly.

"Xiaonuan... Xiaonuan... don’t... don’t leave me!" The man, frowning in his sleep, said loudly.

Xia Xiaonuan shook her head helplessly.

"Don’t worry, I won’t leave you, I am always by your side." She said, lowering her head to softly kiss his forehead.

She rested her face on his chest.

Listening to his heartbeat, she murmured, "Nangong Yaoling, my heart has been completely conquered by you, do you know that?"

The girl slowly closed her eyes.

"Miss Zhong Li, let’s take Mr. Liang to the bedroom." The bodyguards followed Nangong Zhongli in and said respectfully.

Nangong Zhongli nodded.

"Alright, the bedroom is upstairs."

The bodyguards left, the room fell silent.

Nangong Zhongli sat by the bed, gazing at the handsome man lying there.

"Shaochen..." she reached out and gently unbuttoned his shirt.

Revealing his muscular chest, the man seemed uncomfortable in his sleep, with his brows furrowed.

Nangong Zhongli looked at him lovingly and took off his jacket.

"Shaochen..." she lightly placed her hand on his face.

"I’m by your side, why can’t you see?" She said with a slight frown.

Looking at the man in the bed, something flickered in her eyes.

She reached out, slowly taking off her coat.

One piece at a time, her clothes fell to the floor.

Nangong Zhongli bowed her head, softly kissing the man’s lips.

She gently laid her body over his bare torso.

With her slender fingers, she turned off the bedside lamp.
