The both of them finished a bottle of red wine.

Thinking that would be the end of it, Nan Xing did not expect Ouyang Qing to bring out another bottle.

To be precise, it was only a half-full bottle of wine. Someone must have drank half and then resealed it.

“Chen, this is the wine I didn't finish yesterday. It's not as expensive as the one we just drank, but seeing that you don't seem like you've had enough, why don't we drink this?” Ouyang Qing smiled as she looked at Nan Xing.

“Sure. But can I sleep here if I really get drunk?” asked Nan Xing.

The question took Ouyang Qing aback for a moment, then her smile widened.

“Of course! This place has three bedrooms, so you can sleep in whichever room you want.”

“Okay,” Nan Xing replied promptly.

Ouyang Qing proceeded to pour a glass of wine for Nan Xing but did not touch her glass.

“Aren't you going to drink?” Nan Xing enquired.

Ouyang Qing waved her hand dismissively. “I can't hold my alcohol well, so I should stop.”

“All right. In that case, I'll take a break too. Have you showered?” he questioned out of the blue.

Hearing that, Ouyang Qing felt her face turn scarlet. “What do you mean?”

With a straight face, Nan Xing responded, “What I mean is if I'm going to sleep here later, I'll need to use the bathroom. So, wouldn't it be better if you went to wash up first?”

If he's asking me to wash up, things must be going the way I wanted! In that case, why wouldn't I go along with a request like that?

“Okay. I'll go now.”
