Chapter 176 Good Friendship
As Lan Yujuan watched the man approaching, she wondered, "Where is he pretending?"
The next second, she saw the swaying man reach out his hand to her.
Then, in a voice audible only to the two of them, he frowned and muttered in a low voice:
"Honey, I feel a little dizzy..."
Lan Yujuan instinctively stepped forward, reached out to support the person, and said with concern:
"Have you had too much to drink?"
Chen Mo responded softly, "Mm."
Then he closed his eyes, slowly rested his head on her shoulder, and couldn't hide the smile on his lips.
Lan Yujuan was worried, wondering if she should take advantage of the fact that he wasn't completely drunk yet and call a taxi to send him home early.
What if he gets drunk on the way back and falls asleep like before? She can't carry him back by herself.
As Lan Yujuan was thinking this, she was about to greet Li Huan.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she turned her head, she saw Li Huan quietly gesturing to her, indicating that she should look to the other side.
Lan Yujuan felt strange and subconsciously turned her head to look in the other direction.
As a result, the floor-to-ceiling glass next to him perfectly reflected Chen Mo's profile.
At this moment, the big head leaning on her shoulder was grinning triumphantly, showing no sign of drunkenness whatsoever.
It turns out he was faking being drunk!
Lan Yujuan was both annoyed and amused. Looking at the glass, she asked again:
"Are you really drunk?"
The large head resting on her shoulder hesitated for a moment, then nodded gently, even nuzzling against her neck, "Mmm."
Lan Yujuan raised her hand, pinched a bit of flesh on his waist, and gently twisted it, humming:
"I saw it all, why are you pretending?"
"Hiss!" Chen Mo gasped, immediately springing up. "Ouch, that hurts!"
At this moment, the drunkenness faded from Chen Mo's face, and he instantly regained his clarity.
Not only does it walk without wobbling, but when it stands in front of you, it's as straight as a pine tree.
Li Huan, who was not far away, was clutching his stomach and laughing so hard that he could hardly breathe, tears streaming down his face.
After Lan Yujuan let go, she glared at him angrily.
"Is it fun? You made me worry unnecessarily."
Chen Mo's ears turned bright red, his eyes darted around nervously, and his voice was barely audible as he explained:
"I did feel a little dizzy just now."
"However, it's not that serious, just a tiny bit..."
Just as Chen Mo was wondering how to ease the awkwardness, he looked up and happened to catch a glimpse of the instigator who had exposed him and was now standing by watching the show.
He immediately rushed over, and the two wrestled and struggled as they walked back...
Lan Yujuan followed behind, shaking her head and smiling helplessly.
This was the first time she had ever seen Chen Mo, who was usually so composed and taciturn, show such a childlike side.
They drank until late into the night at this party.
Lan Yujuan herself didn't know when she fell asleep.
When she woke up, only she and Chen Mo were left in the dimly lit private room.
She rested her head on Chen Mo's lap, with Chen Mo's coat covering her.
But Chen Mo didn't sleep; he just sat there quietly, playing with her hair by circling his fingers.
Lan Yujuan opened her blurry eyes, and after a couple of seconds, she remembered where she was.
Then, she immediately propped herself up and sat up, subconsciously glancing around before asking softly:
"Where is everyone else? Have they all left?"
Chen Mo hesitated for two seconds before blinking and replying, "Okay, I'm leaving."
The private room was extremely quiet, and Chen Mo was unusually well-behaved.
"Chen Mo, have you had too much to drink?" Lan Yujuan asked tentatively.
Chen Mo just looked at her without answering, and instead slowly reached out to brush away the hair that was falling over her shoulders.
At this moment, even if Chen Mo didn't say anything, Lan Yujuan already knew the answer in her heart.
This time, he really drank too much!
She gently pushed Chen Mo's hand away, got up, and turned on the light first.
While walking, I accidentally tripped over a wine bottle, which made a "clanging" sound.
Lan Yujuan looked down and exclaimed, "Good heavens, she's drunk so much!"
The floor was covered with neatly arranged rows of bottles, enough to trigger her trypophobia.
She packed her things and led Chen Mo outside.
After confirming with the waiter that everyone else in the party had taken a taxi back to the hotel, she felt relieved and went to the front desk to check out and go home.
"Madam, your bill for the private room has already been settled," the cashier replied with a smile after checking.
Lan Yujuan turned her head and glanced at Chen Mo.
"Did you go out and pay the bill earlier?"
Chen Mo followed behind her, thought for a while, and gently shook his head.
Lan Yujuan was a little worried, so she asked another question:
"Could you please check who paid the bill for our private room tonight?"
She clearly remembered that before they moved to another venue in the afternoon, Chen Mo had said that he would pay the bill tonight and no one should try to take it from him.
Moreover, Lan Yujuan had heard Li Rui mention the situation of their group of good brothers before.
Most of them come from rural areas, have little education, and after being discharged from the military, their lives are just average.
The places they're spending tonight will cost at least five figures. That's not a small sum for an average family.
The front desk quickly found the order.
"Madam, tonight's bill for your private room, mainly drinks, is 38,000 after the discount."
"The person who paid the bill was a man named Li Huan, who used his credit card."
Lan Yujuan immediately understood upon hearing this.
She must have fallen asleep when it was time to pay the bill, and Chen Mo must have drunk too much.
Li Huan was probably the second to last to leave, so he gritted his teeth and paid the bill himself.
She immediately took out her card and handed it to the cashier.
"Sorry, I fell asleep just now."
"Could you please refund the money I just paid and re-swipe this card?"
