Han glanced at Leah and he mumbled something. He seemed to be in a daze, and he did not recognize Leah.

Swaying a little, he staggered toward the pond. The short fence around the pond would not be able to stop him from falling into the pond.

A few steps before he reached the fence, Leah pulled him backward. Irritated, she sighed, “How much have you had to drink?”

Han paused and he sat down in the gazebo. He stared at Leah, perplexed. She could not tell what he was thinking. She was restless.

She took a deep breath. She was about to leave when Han grabbed her wrist. He was pulling her so hard she fell onto his lap, but he remained unmoved.

“I am not running away from you.”

“Yes, you are.”
