章節 12: Take That, White Lotus!

"Aw, so sweet.." Menxiang drawled.

"Okay, I have to go now. Bye, guys." Chunlan could hardly move her eyes from Jihai's own. Her heart felt alive in her chest.

"Bye." Jihai stared at the girl in the screen, his fingers failing to end the call. He could remain like this all day, gazing at her.

Unable to bear it anymore, Mengqi stood up plastering a smile on her face as she walked to his side. "See you later, Chunlan." Her slender finger pressed the red button.

Grabbing his sleeve, she whined softly. "Come, we are all drinking and you are the only one that is still sober."

"Yet you didn't invite Chunlan." He removed his arm from her hands.

She stammered. "I-I f-fforgot, okay? And besides we promised to get together at another time. Why don't you sit down and I will get your drink. Enjoy yourself, you are too uptight."

Su Menxiang narrowed her eyes as she watched them interact. That bitch has started again! Anytime Chunlan was absent, she would try to make a move on Jihai. Not this time.

Seeing Mengqi go get the drinks, she stood up and walked to Jihai's side. Clutching her head, she shouted. "Argh, I think I drank too much. I feel dizzy and so nauseous."

Jihai glanced at the girl briefly, then continued to ignore her texting in his phone.

Feeling indignant, she shouted again. "It hurts! It hurts! My head hurts so much!" She secretly pinched his waist, glaring at him.

Jihai jerked from the contact and looked her, thinking. After some while, he dropped his phone. "Let me drop you home."

Finally! She really thought he was dense seeing that he had failed to get her message earlier on. She clutched her head dramatically."Well, if you insist."

Getting up, she hung one arm around his shoulder leaning on him. He gritted his teeth, supporting her weight. He hated having physical contact with other women unnecessarily. But this was Chunlan's best friend, so he tried to endure.

As they almost reached the door, Mengqi's voice rang out, surprised. "Leaving so soon?"

Jihai turned and said "Menxiang is drunk, I am carrying her home."

"But you just got here." Mengqi protested.

"Myyyy h-heaaad hurts." Slurred words came from Menxiang.

"I can take her away if you like. I have an early meeting tomorrow." Wen Honglin volunteered.

"No need. I am Chunlan's boyfriend. It is my duty." He opened the door.

Mengqi stepped forward as Honglin fell quiet. "Then let me help you."

"No need to trouble you. Lets get together again after my graduation." He dismissed her, leaving her speechless.

As they stepped out of the door, Menxiang tugged her lips, feeling giddy all of a sudden. Take that, white lotus!
