章節 19: Want me to teach you? (12)

So I decided to pack up and clean up the cans and prepared to go home. When he noticed I was cleaning up and had the intention of leaving, he looked up at me. He grabbed my hand and stared at me.

"Jiejie, where are you going? Are you abandoning me?" He said pitifully with eyes as clear as water but glistening with unshed tears. Ack! What the heck!? Why does he look like a pitiful wife that was being left behind by her cheating husband!?

I stood there frozen in my spot while looking at his cute but pitiful expression. It actually fried my brains and don't know what to do with him. As if sensing my hesitation he gently pulled my hand and made me sit. As if in a trance I followed his gentle pull and sat down, not knowing I was being pulled to sit down on his lap!

He hugged me from behind and leaned his chin on my shoulder. "Jiejie, be a good girl and just stay here with me. You can even spend the night here, I won't mind." He said softly in my ear. His voice sweet and alluring, send shivers down my spine.

I don't know why, but against my angel and demon, I listened to my inner demon and gave in. With my eyes closed, I threw caution to the wind and just nodded my head at what he said.

"Do you still want to continue drinking or we can just go to bed to get some rest?" He softly whispered in my ear.

When he said that I suddenly realized that I was sitting on his lap and his arms are around my waist hugging me. I just processed what he said and in excitement and anticipation I looked at his face to see if he was serious, but when I see his eyes with a hint of laughter I felt like I bucket of ice water was poured on me. He was teasing me!

I quickly stood up and went directly to the fridge and grabbed the bottles of soju that I bought earlier. Might as well make him drink this so that he can sleep early and I can go home! This punk teasing me like that! I'll make him drunk tonight and draw on his face to get my revenge for teasing me before going home!

When I came back with the 7 bottles I can see he was surprised. I laugh internally, let's see if you don't drop down and puke your guts out after drinking these! I evilly thought.

********

After the 3rd bottle was consumed I can feel my face is going numb. I forgot that I don't mix drinks! I was so completely occupied with getting back at him for teasing me that I forgot this one weakness that I have! I can't mix beer with any kind of distilled liquor! I easily get drunk if I mix them up!

I didn't think it was a problem earlier since I thought I will drink this soju back at my place so I wasn't worried about getting drunk. But now I'm at his place, to get home safely and in one piece, I need to puke my guts out to feel a bit better and be a little clear-headed to travel back home.

"Jiejie, are you alright? We can stop drinking since I can see you're drunk. Want me to make you some soup to sober you up?" He said with that kind and gentle tone of his. I looked up at him and internally cursed. Why does he look like he is still fine!? Is his alcohol tolerance that high?!

I don't know if it's the alcohol talking or if my stubbornness is acting up, but I vehemently shook my head and glared at him with a determined look on my face. "I'm fine! Let's continue with the drinking contest!" I said while glaring at his face. I'm still fine my face is just numbed, I can still go on!

After the 5th bottle, I can feel that I was not okay anymore. I know I'm drunk now, but I still pretended that I'm not and acted I'm still sober, but from the look on his face I bet he is not convinced.

After the 7th bottle, I can certainly and proudly say that I'm dead drunk! I can't stand properly when I want to go to the toilet. He had to hold on my arm and waist to assist me in going to the door of the bathroom. After doing my business (ie peeing and puking my guts out), I washed my face and rinsed my mouth.

Feeling a little better and I assessed myself that I'm somewhat sober enough to go home, by enough, I mean I can still keep my eyes open and read the signs for a bus or taxi, I came out of the bathroom. With wobbly steps, I went to the place that I was sitting on and looked for my bag.

I clumsily looked for it but wasn't able to see it. Weird, I know I left it on the floor. I kneeled down and looked under the table and still no sign of it. I sat up again and think thru my muddled head. Where could it be? I can't go home if I can't find my bag, my wallet and phone are in there!

I looked around his room and even looked under the bed but it's nowhere to be found. I heard footsteps and when I look back I saw Minghao coming from the kitchen.

"Here's some hangover soup. Drink this so you would feel better!" He said smiling. He put down the hot soup on the table and sat beside me and eagerly looking at me as if wanting to be praised that he made me soup.

I just dumbly looked at the soup and then at him. "I'm fine I can't drink or eat anything I will just puke them out. Have you seen my bag? I can't find it anywhere. " I told him.

When I said that I can feel that his smile change from that warm and friendly smile to a cold and angry smile. I shivered in fear of him getting angry at me. I need to pacify him somehow. I started thinking about what to say to him.
