Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Si Zhengting tilted his head, he saw Zhuang Nainai looking like a kitten. He simply could not reconcile her timid yet full-of-energy demeanor with his impression of her as a fearless person.
Was she that terrified of him?
Looking down, he reached out his injured hand and pried open her fingers, attempting to snatch that glass of wine from her hands quickly.
Zhuang Nainai panicked.
Why was this person so stubborn?
She already said that drinking would hinder the recovery process, but he still did not give a care in the world.
At the moment, her mind was preoccupied with the thought that she should not let Si Zhengting drink; thus, she brought the glass to her lips, raised her head, and began gulping down the wine without thinking!
Although Su Yanbin and the others had said they were playing, they had been eyeing them from the corner of their eyes since the beginning. Upon witnessing this scene, all of them were utterly shocked!
Zhuang Nainai had finished half a glass of wine in one shot. Pleased with herself, she then looked at Si Zhengting while everyone else was still in a state of shock and bragged, “I finished the red wine. There’s no more left~”
Si Zhengting: “…”
The veins on Si Zhengting’s forehead were popping out. He had decided to let her off and wanted to sit down on the sofa to hear her out.
However, his sudden movements caused Zhuang Nainai to misunderstand him. She had thought that Si Zhengting wanted to pour another glass of wine. Hence, without hesitation, she rushed to the cupboard next to her, picked up the opened bottle of wine, and raised her head to gulp down the wine, as if she was drinking water!
Su Yanbin was counting the cards with a piece of paper between his lips. When he saw Zhuang Nainai, he was stunned. With his mouth agape, the piece of paper fell down and, as his hands turned to jelly, the poker cards in his hands scattered all over the table.
On the other hand, Si Zhengting stopped in his tracks while walking towards the sofa. A tinge of bewilderment flashed across his deep-set eyes.
Holding the bottle of wine tightly, the girl had raised her head to gulp down big mouthfuls of wine. Her flawless, porcelain-white nape resembled that of a swan, attracting one’s undivided attention.
Si Zhengting managed to shift his unswerving attention elsewhere with much effort, only to discover an enchanted Su Yanbin.
His gaze turned icy immediately. As his eyes shifted to Su Yanbin, there seemed to be a gush of biting-cold winter wind.
Su Yanbin shivered. He lowered his head obediently, but he still could not resist glancing at her from the corner of his eye.
At Su Yanbin’s behavior, Si Zhengting’s temples throbbed incessantly.
Did this woman actually know that the way she looked right now was very attractive?!
Moreover, if she did not want him to drink, couldn’t she just pour it on the floor?
The anger he had felt for the past week dissipated in this instant as it was replaced by frustration.
She was like this in high school too – her IQ would drop to zero the moment she goes into a state of panic.
After taking a deep breath, Si Zhengting walked forward and snagged the bottle of wine from Zhuang Nainai’s hands.
Zhuang Nainai thought that Si Zhengting was fighting for the wine. She jumped up in shock and wanted to resist his advance. However, how could she possibly resist Si Zhengting given his strength?
She could only quickly drink a few more mouthfuls!
At the moment, all she could think of was that if she drank a few more mouthfuls, Si Zhengting would drink fewer mouthfuls…
She was still drinking the wine when the bottle was taken away forcefully. Ping!
Si Zhengting hurled the bottle viciously right under Su Yanbin’s legs.
Shatter!
Shards of glass flew in all directions, causing Su Yanbin to jump onto the sofa in shock immediately. He looked down at the broken bottle with an ashen face.
On the other side, Si Zhengting shot him a warning stare and turned around to grab Zhuang Nainai’s wrist, taking his coat along the way. Then, he dragged her out forcefully!
