Chapter 78: Finally, I

~8 min read 1,557 words

"Big sister! What are you doing!"

Lin Yeman grew anxious, lunged forward in a single stride, and forcibly pried apart Yang Lan's hand as she tried to reach deeper, "Have you even lost all sense of shame?!"

Yang Lan, however, ignored her and reached back up: "What about you? You cut in line, that's an unfair victory!"

"You didn't ask me before!"

"If I don't ask, you won't say?"

"Why should I say anything if you don't ask!"

The two drunks had their high ground completely occupied by alcohol.

Their way of arguing was not only childish but ridiculous.

Having completely shed the shackles of adulthood, both had regressed into two three-year-old children.

Shen Huai took a deep breath.

He gripped Yang Lan's arms on both sides and forcibly peeled the soft, limp beauty off his body.

"Yang Lan, you're drunk."

Upon hearing this.

Yang Lan's eyelashes fluttered sluggishly for a moment, and she licked the corner of her mouth.

Immediately after, she swayed as she straightened her body, pointed a finger at Lin Yeman, and stubbornly said, "Nonsense! I'm not drunk, my sister is clearly drunker than I am!"

The next second.

"Clang."

Yang Lan collapsed onto the floor, unconscious.

"..."

Shen Huai felt a headache coming on.

Not a single bite of the food had been eaten.

Yet six bottles of red wine had all been drained to the bottom.

The combat power of a woman when she is jealous is simply terrifying.

He cast his gaze toward the floor.

Yang Lan was curled up on the ground like a cooked shrimp.

Red from head to toe.

Lin Yeman's state looked slightly better than Yang Lan's.

But not by much.

She stumbled toward the hollowed-out copper pillar and turned to lean against it to stand.

Watching Yang Lan, who had fallen before her, Lin Yeman finally let go of her last bit of stubbornness.

If not for the last shred of clarity she was forcing her mind to hold onto, she would have long since melted into a puddle of mud.

Shen Huai looked at the two ancestors before him, one fallen and one swaying, and his mouth twitched.

Drink away.

Who could outdrink you two? If Uncle Yang saw this scene, he would probably think he had intentionally gotten his two precious daughters drunk with ulterior motives.

He'd pull out a knife and start hacking away immediately.

He rubbed his brow and sighed.

Only then did Shen Huai slowly stand up and walk to the copper pillar.

"Can you walk?" He looked at Lin Yeman's unfocused eyes and spoke with some concern.

"Are you... *hic*... doubting me?"

Lin Yeman let out a hiccup and pointed confidently at the floor: "Can this little bit of alcohol take me down? Watch me walk a cat-walk for you."

After saying this, she took a step, swaying left and right as she walked toward the opposite pillar.

She didn't get many steps in.

Lin Yeman's ankles went soft, and her body instantly tipped toward Yang Lan.

Shen Huai hurriedly lunged forward and caught her by the waist.

"... With the way you look right now, why are you still acting tough? You almost crushed your sister into a meat patty."

Watching Lin Yeman's ridiculously crooked, snake-like path.

Shen Huai shook his head repeatedly.

People who are drunk are all like this.

The more they drink, the more stubborn their mouths become.

"Let's go, I'll take you both back to your rooms to rest."

"Go home...?" Lin Yeman slumped in Shen Huai's arms, smelling the familiar scent, and couldn't help but nuzzle against him, murmuring as she opened her eyes, "Then what about my sister?"

Shen Huai turned back to look at Yang Lan on the floor and scratched his head helplessly.

What else could he do? Of course, he had to treat them both equally.

After a moment of contemplation, Shen Huai gently set Lin Yeman down, then walked in front of her, crouched halfway, and pointed to his back: "You, jump onto my back; I need to free up my hands to carry your sister."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yeman was immediately displeased, showing eight hundred little expressions in one minute: "Why do you get to carry her and not me?"

"Your sister is so drunk she's unconscious; where would she find the strength to hang around my neck? You're even jealous of this?"

"If I had known, I would have gone unconscious too; now my sister has taken advantage of me again."

Lin Yeman muttered, jumped onto Shen Huai's back unwillingly, and gripped his neck tightly: "Giddy up~"

"..."

Shen Huai's temple throbbed.

Blame his own loose lips.

Why try to reason with a drunkard? Hoisting Lin Yeman onto his back, Shen Huai walked step by step toward Yang Lan.

At this moment, Yang Lan was already fast asleep on the ground, snoring away.

Shen Huai crouched down and slid his hands under Yang Lan's back and behind her knees.

He took a deep breath and lifted her up with a sudden heave—

And just like that, the Yang Family sisters were hanging off Shen Huai, looking as fresh as can be.

In an instant.

The sudden increase in weight nearly made Shen Huai stagger.

But since he had already started this act, he had to see it through to the end.

Shen Huai gritted his teeth to steady his pace, took a deep breath, and sprinted toward the room.

Although Lin Yeman had a fine figure and a light frame.

Her height of 168 centimeters was still quite substantial.

Compared to Lin Yeman, Yang Lan's figure was more petite, and she had less meat on her bones.

Of course, she was also flatter.

He weighed the burden.

The two of them together had to weigh at least 160 jin.

It was fortunate that he had a habit of working out and building muscle.

He could even reach 120kg on a stiff-legged deadlift.

Otherwise, he feared his arms would have been ruined on the spot.

Because Yang Lan had made arrangements with the servants beforehand, telling everyone to avoid the garden area.

So, all the way from the garden to the room.

Shen Huai didn't see a single soul; he just had to grit his teeth and carry the two of them back to the room.

The moment he pushed open the door, Shen Huai rushed into the bedroom regardless of anything else.

Because he had lunged forward too quickly, he couldn't steady his footing.

Shen Huai's arms gave out and he lost his balance, and the three of them tumbled onto the bed together.

Yang Lan fell from Shen Huai's arms onto the bed, frowned, mumbled something as she turned over, and fell back into a deep sleep.

Lin Yeman's eyes were also unfocused, her clothes in disarray, and she sank limply into the bed.

The weight of over a hundred jin was finally off him.

Shen Huai felt his whole body relax, and his legs trembled violently as if they were filled with lead.

He slumped onto the wooden floor in relief, leaning his back against the soft mattress, gasping for air.

Due to the prolonged load, Shen Huai's forearms were still slightly swollen.

His entire back was also soaked through.

Beads of sweat dripped from the tips of his hair onto the carpet, forming a small, dark water stain.

After panting for a long while.

Shen Huai's violently pounding heart finally calmed down.

He looked back at the Yang Family sisters lying horizontally and vertically on his master bedroom bed, his expression darkening.

After silently covering the two of them with a quilt, Shen Huai went to the suite's living room alone.

The decor of this suite was very similar in layout to the one at Number One Heaven and Earth.

Even the interior design style was somewhat alike.

The design of a large horizontal living room plus integrated floor-to-ceiling windows widened the viewing angle of the entire house.

Looking out from inside.

The starry sky was in full view, like a giant oil painting of the night sky embedded in the wall.

Mysterious and magnificent.

Shen Huai stood before the massive floor-to-ceiling window in the living room, quietly admiring the beautiful scenery.

His chaotic mood was smoothed over by the tranquil and sweet atmosphere of the moment.

His restless heart became much quieter.

Tomorrow is Sunday.

Whether it's a trial relationship or a battlefield of jealousy.

This farce would eventually have to come to an end.

When he returns to Jianghai City tomorrow, he would find a way to solve these problems.

Suddenly.

A pair of hands gently wrapped around Shen Huai's waist from behind.

Shen Huai's heart tightened; he grabbed these burning little hands and turned his head to look—

He saw that Lin Yeman had woken up, though he didn't know when.

Her body was pressed tightly against Shen Huai's back, and the hands around his waist not only didn't let go, but tightened stubbornly.

Under the reflection of the moonlight.

Lin Yeman's eyes were seductive and unfocused, deep as the sea.

She smiled wickedly, rested her chin in the crook of Shen Huai's neck, and lightly bit his ear.

The scent of alcohol mixed with her hot breath easily stirred Shen Huai's heart.

"Finally, I've caught you."
