h4Chapter 142: Chapter 128: What Do You Want? Just Say It/h4

    "I had an amazing time tonight. Guess what the girls at mypany are calling me?"

    Her voice was full of pride.

    In the moonlight, seeing her tipsy appearance with cheeks flushed, Bao Ye easily wrapped an arm around her, his Adam’s apple moving slightly: "What?"

    "A fairy!"

    With a big grin showing her little white teeth, Jiang Ruan released his neck and cradled her own face: "They said I’m the most beautiful fairy in thepany, like I’ve flown down from the heavens."

    She waved her hands around animatedly.

    She didn’t look like a fairy, more like a drunkard.

    Bao Ye couldn’t help but chuckle, teasing her: "Flew down from the heavens? Why not fly back up then?"

    "Just a fewpliments and they got you to drink so much?"

    He pinched her cheek lightly, scolding: "No backbone."

    Though Jiang Ruan had had a bit too much to drink, she wasn’tpletely drunk. Hearing him scold her, she pouted: "What!"

    "They were genuinelyplimenting me, okay? They usually treat me really well at thepany and are diligent with their work. I drank voluntarily, they didn’t coax me into it."

    Jiang Ruan huffed lightly: "Stop treating me like an idiot, alright? Others praise me, but you’re the only one who criticizes."

    Bao Ye got a bit of a lecture from her.

    Looking at her, he really had no temper, and sighed: "Alright, whatever you say is right."

    "Let’s go."

    But Jiang Ruan held onto his arm, Bao Ye turned, seeing her pout with a pitiful expression, he raised an eyebrow: "What now?"

    Jiang Ruan: "I don’t want to go back yet."

    Bao Yeughed in exasperation: "It’s past one in the morning. If we’re not going back, what do you want to do?"

    Jiang Ruan pointed to her stomach, innocently: "It’s saying it’s a bit hungry."

    "It wants food, otherwise it’ll starve."

    Bao Ye: "..."

    "Didn’t you eat anything tonight?"

    Jiang Ruan shook her head: "No, we just focused on drinking."

    "And then ran out of drinks in the end."

    Bao Ye asked her: "Where did it go?"

    "Went out in the bathroom," Jiang Ruan said confidently: "It’s all water, it doesn’t fill the stomach."

    Bao Ye’s lips twitched, he really couldn’t do anything about her.

    "Let’s head back, I’ll have the housekeeper make you something to eat."

    Jiang Ruan blinked: "But I want Qingyun Road’s wontons."

    "The wontons there are particrly delicious. It’s not far from here, just a few minutes’ walk."

    "I haven’t had them in a long time."

    Bao Ye frowned: "Do you really have to eat it now?"

    "It’s past one in the morning, the shop’s probably closed."

    "No," Jiang Ruan said: "This shop is open 24/7."

    She shook his hand, acting coy: "Will you take me to eat them, pretty please?"

    She seemed like a little child.

    No.

    Bao Ye finally understood.

    She wasn’t really drunk, she was just putting on an act.

    If she was truly drunk, she’d be fast asleep.

    No way she’d be like this, knowing she’s hungry and wanting to eat.

    "Let’s go."

    In the end, Bao Yepromised.

    Rubbing his tired temples, he had a 6 AM flight to catch to South Africa for a project supervision.

    Oh well, seeing her so happy, he decided to apany her for wontons.

    Under the moonlight, Bao Ye wrapped an arm around Jiang Ruan’s waist and walked forward. They hadn’t gone far when Jiang Ruan stopped again.

    Bao Ye: "What’s wrong?"

    Jiang Ruan pouted, looking pitiful: "My feet hurt."

    "Partied with them earlier, and my legs hurt too."

    Bao Ye nced at her high and thin heels,ughed in exasperation: "Dancing in high heels? Serves you right."

    Jiang Ruan, being scolded, clung to him coyly: "Please don’t scold me."

    "The past is the past, we need to think about what to do now, right?"

    Bao Ye saw that she had already figured it out.

    Just waiting for him to give her an out.

    And then she’d take a mile.

    "What do you want to do, just tell me."
