Chapter 254: Drunk (1)
Chapter 254: Drunk (1)
Corey had been paying attention to Ning Hua's movements. When the commander started singing on the stage, he intended to go to Ning Hua's side to protect her. However, there was some chaos at the scene and he diverted some of his attention to the crowd, so he came a little late. At this moment, he walked quickly and created a small space for Ning Hua.
Corey's arrival made Ning Hua breathe a sigh of relief. Corey and his subordinates blocked most of the intimidating and scorching gazes for Ning Hua, which made Ning Hua feel relieved.
The commander's departure was tantamount to announcing the end of today's "highly dramatic" dinner, and everyone followed the commander's footsteps and walked out of the venue.
The aircraft quickly approached the commander's residence in the cover of night.
Ning Hua and Lu Xiu didn't talk at all on the aircraft, but the atmosphere between them was so good that Lu Xiu wanted to laugh out loud.
A short separation is better than a new marriage, and with the backdrop of this grand and high-profile confession, Lu Xiu believed that what happened next should be a natural progression.
He tightly held Ning Hua's hand, the excitement and joy in his eyes could not be concealed at all. He was both expectant and happy. This unfamiliar stimulation made his palms sweaty as he held Ning Hua's hand.
Lu Xiu held Ning Hua's hand and walked all the way to his bedroom on the third floor. However, Ning Hua stopped going up the stairs to the second floor. No matter how hard the commander pulled her and how heavy his breathing was, she held onto the railing and refused to take another step up...
Lu Xiu leaned close to Ning Hua's ear and said, "Ning Hua, it's been a month. You should have been ready..."
Ning Hua's face flushed immediately, and she said in a coquettish voice, "No, I'm not ready."
"Just don't reject me. Leave everything to me. Relax, I will be gentle."
Lu Xiu's explicit words not only made Ning Hua's face redder, but also made her feel weak all over. However, she still held the railing of the stairs tightly and refused silently.
Lu Xiu struggled with her at the stairs for a while, and finally let her go reluctantly.
"Okay, I won't force you until you agree, okay?"
Ning Hua looked up at the commander in surprise. The look in her eyes was so obvious that Lu Xiu could tell at a glance that she was asking him, "Really?"
Lu Xiu sighed: "Alas, you are always so cruel to me... Stop hugging the railing. Don't you like drinking? I brought back a high-end wine from the Eastern Union Star System. Come have a drink with me..."
Ning Hua glanced at the commander hesitantly, worried that he might cheat, but she thought about Lu Xiu's alcohol tolerance and her own, and finally nodded with confidence: "Okay, I'll have a drink with you."
Lu Xiu ordered the guards to deliver the wine to the small living room on the second floor. The place he chose for drinking immediately made Ning Hua feel a lot more at ease.
After a while, the guard brought up two bottles of wine of different colors. One of the bottles was small and the color was attractive. Ning Hua was attracted to it at first sight. Lu Xiu took a look at Ning Hua's expression and knew that his guess was correct.
Lu Xiu filled a glass of wine for Ning Hua and told her that the name of this wine was "Dripping Drunk" because there was a legend that people would get drunk if they drank just one drop of this wine...
Ning Hua opened her eyes wide with curiosity. Lu Xiu continued, "But your alcohol tolerance is unmatched by most people. I got drunk seven or eight times, but you still couldn't get drunk, right?"
