Su Wan smiled awkwardly and started to drool over Jiang Xuechengâs 1992 Screaming Eagle Cabernet Sauvignon. Very quickly, she turned her thoughts into action. âMr. Jiang, can I try a little of the wine?â
âCan you drink?â Jiang Xuechengâs deep eyes swept across Su Wan with doubt.
âNo oneâs born knowing how to drink. I can learn to drink.â Su Wan lowered her eyes and suddenly her tone of voice sounded upset. âIt is said that alcohol can reduce anxiety and sorrows. Iâd like to try.â
Su Wan looked preoccupied by troubles and as he looked at her, Jiang Xuecheng had forgotten to stop her from taking the red wine.
Su Wan poured herself a full glass and downed the entire glass.
Jiang Xuecheng shook his head when he saw Su Wanâs crude drinking manner. This woman obviously did not know how to enjoy wine...
Those who knew how to appreciate wine would treasure the 1992 red wine of the highest grade. At least, they would take small sips while enjoying the wine. Who would drink like her? Before drinking, she didnât even swirl the red wine and this completely wasted the essence of the bottle of red wine.
âWhy is it so bitter? Isnât this made from grapes?â
Su Wan supported her head with her hand and her forehead creased. Her radiant almond eyes opened wide and she looked in disbelief.
Jiang Xuecheng looked at Su Wan helplessly. She poured herself another glass and gulped it down very quickly, as if not wanting to give up before she could taste the grapeâs sour and sweet taste.
It was Su Wanâs first time drinking and it was obvious that her alcohol tolerance was low. After a while, her cheeks turned crimson and her radiant eyes blurred like they would shut any time.
This little drunkard...
Jiang Xuecheng snatched the bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon from Su Wan, who was trying to fill another glass. âYou are drunk, stop drinking. Too much alcohol is not good for you.â
âWhoâs drunk?â Su Wan pointed at Jiang Xuecheng. âPenny-pincher, youâre unwilling to let me to drink.â
It was the first time someone addressed him in this manner. However, Jiang Xuecheng was more worried about her alcohol tolerance rather than the bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon. It would be troublesome if she was drunk.
However, Su Wan was not in a drunken stupor. After complaining about Jiang Xuecheng, she collapsed backward. Luckily, Jiang Xuecheng was alert enough to steady her.
Jiang Xuecheng saw Su Wan curling up. She appeared naïve and innocent while asleep, like a little kitten fast asleep.
A wine that had been fermented for 92 years had a mellow taste but its after-effect lasted long and was overbearing. Su Wan was a first-time drinker and she had so much at one go, it was no wonder she fell asleep.
Jiang Xuecheng brought Su Wan to the couch and covered her with a thin velvet blanket. Then, he cleared the dining table.
When he was done cleaning up, Jiang Xuecheng bent down and carried Su Wan, who was sound asleep, cautiously back to the guest room.
He helped Su Wan remove her shoes and her trench coat. Then, he covered her with a silk quilt.
Just as Jiang Xuecheng was about to leave, Su Wan opened her eyes, still dizzy. The little drunken kitten held onto Jiang Xuechengâs arm and shook her head. âPlease donât move. Why do I see two of you? Iâm feeling very giddy...â
You were the one moving!
The corner of his mouth curved up. He tidied the messy blanket and coaxed gently, âGo to sleep.â
He didnât think coaxing the drunk Su Wan would be difficult, but the little drunken kitten paid no heed to him. Instead, she looked at him and interrogated loudly, âWhy donât you love me anymore?â
Jiang Xuecheng didnât expect Su Wan to ask such weird questions. When he saw tears forming in the little drunken kittenâs eyes, his voice turned gentler. He consoled her, âGo to sleep. Nobody dislikes you.â
âLiar! Liar!â
He was not sure what his words had done to her. When Jiang Xuecheng was about to leave, he felt a tug of pain at his wrist.
Jiang Xuecheng subconsciously pulled his hand away and saw bite marks on his hand. Immediately, he frowned.
This woman was indeed cat-like. She even bit...
âYou say sheâs your and thatâs why you canât give up on her, but Iâm the one who should be yours. You promised to marry me, why have you forgotten? Liar!â
What was this?
Although Jiang Xuecheng had no experience in love, he knew this crazy woman had been crossed in love. Just yesterday, she had been praising her fiancé like he was the best. How did this happen after just one day?
He saw Su Wan burying her head into the blanket. Jiang Xuecheng looked at the wet stain on the blanket and coldly reprimanded, âHeâs just a man, is it necessary to cry over him?â
Su Wan slowly raised her head. Tears stained her cheeks. Her tearful face was annoying.
Jiang Xuecheng thought she had regained her senses and wanted to say something but suddenly, Su Wan wrapped her arms around his neck.
Then, she pressed her lips against his thin ones. Her kiss was cautious, yet filled with a sense of longing.
Jiang Xuecheng widened his eyes. He was electrified. He remembered Su Wanâs complaint about the bitter taste of the wine.
However, he could feel the faint sweetness of the red wine when Su Wanâs lips pressed against his.
Consciousness returned to Jiang Xuechengâs brain and he immediately pushed Su Wan aside.
The little kittenâs tears fell after being pushed aside. At the sight, Jiang Xuechengâs heart tightened but he relentlessly decided to walk out of the door, not wanting to take another glance at her.
He would never take advantage of someone but he was more reluctant to be treated as a replacement.
âIâm undoubtedly yours and you belong to me alone, do you know?â
Su Wanâs voice sounded beside his ears. Her words were her last try but Jiang Xuecheng did not turn his head. Right then, he was hauled onto the silk quilt!
This woman looked petite, where did she get such strength?
Jiang Xuecheng frowned, unwilling to kick up a row with Su Wan. He was about to get up but the drunken Su Wan was extraordinarily aggressive. She sat on the side of his waist!
There was a difference between the physical strength of a man and a woman. Jiang Xuecheng could easily push Su Wan aside. At that moment, he was really mad. He didnât want to accept the fact that Su Wan had treated him as her fiancé.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Just as Jiang Xuecheng was about to leave, Su Wan who was not in her right mind, wanted to keep this man with her and wouldnât allow him to do as he wished.
In an instant, Jiang Xuecheng had a drastic change of emotions. His face was extremely dark but his beautiful eyes showed an unendurable emotion.
D*mn! Who on earth taught this woman to hold his most vulnerable part in her palm!
At this point, Jiang Xuecheng dared not move, afraid that Su Wan might do something more frightening.
However, Su Wan was fooling around and didnât know what she was doing. Her clumsy gesture brought both pain and joy to Jiang Xuecheng. He couldnât do anything but watch the thing in Su Wanâs palm turn ferocious and scorching hot.
That instance, Jiang Xuecheng wished to execute the little drunken kitten on the spot, letting her know the consequence of messing with him.
