Few days passed as usual for Evelyn until Leon decided to break her peace.
"Hey, I realized you are not doing your mission, right!" He asked.
"Why would I do that. That man Liam wants to chase me, you his brother always fights with me. Did you think I'm so kind to help you." She rolled her eyes at him for asking the obvious.
"Hey, my brother just doesn't know about you. As for me, aren't we friend. It's common to fight, why are you taking it seriously." He asked. This girl is vengeful.
"Really? Is this how friendship works, hmp you are just irritating. Alex is my only friend." She crossed her arm.
"When did my boss become your friend. Are you living in delusion." He asked not believing her.
"Hmp, he is your boss not mine. He is very good to me." She showed off.
"Right, then why don't you ask him about their relationship matter. Let's find out, okay. I'm really curious to know." He suggested.
"Ok, I will ask him, give me a strong liquor, drunk man always spill their tea." Together they made a plan to get lu yichen drunk.
So, when lu yichen and Leon arrived at the home, they saw a tom and Jerry watching the television peacefully. When the duo sensed them, they looked at them in sync and gave a meaningful stare.
Leon, knowing they must be up to something, escaped to his room not wanting to get involved. While, lu yichen couldn't do so because he got grabbed by the girl who is taking him to dining table.
"Alex, I saw a drink in the cellar that looked really pretty. Let's drink it okay!" She asked him hopefully.
But when Lu yichen saw the liquor that is so strong, he denied her immediately.
"No, you can't drink this. If you want to drink, then try something soft. This is not something for you."
"Pretty please. I really want to drink this. Just a little, okay" she pleaded.
"Fine, just a little." Lu yichen agreed to her relentless plea.
"Of course." Happily, she pured the liquor to both of their glass and even encouraged him to drink.
When, she drank the liquor, she couldn't help but cringe at the taste. That expression didn't go unnoticed by Lu yichen.
"First time drinking?" He asked her.
"Yes,how do you drink this without making any face. It's gross." She said disgusted.
"Then don't drink. It's not good to drink anyway." He suggested.
"No, I want to drink. I want to know, why people get addicted." She sipped again.
"Remember, only this glass. You are not allowed to drink anymore." He also ate while taking a sip occasionally.
"Fine, you act like my dad." She muttered while taking another sip as now liking it a little bit.
"Didn't you said, you were orphan." He asked her.
"Why do you take my words so seriously. I was just saying." She retorted while not forgetting to fill his glass from time to time.
But, Alas, as the time passed, Lu yichen looked completely fine even when he had finished half of the bottle of liquor while Evelyn felt a little light headed as she started feeling something weird in just a glass.
"Hmm, why do I feel like my head is spinning. Oh, it is not, this table is spinning." She giggled.
"It seems you are light drinker. Let's take you to your room." Lu yichen held her hand and dragged her towards the stairs.
"Umm, I don't want to go. I want to watch my drama." She pouted while trying to free her hand.
"No, it's time to rest. If you don't, then you will feel headache later." He tried to drag but this time she also made some force and pulled him opposite not going.
"Don't protest. Be good and follow me." He coaxed her as he knew she will be obedient to coaxing from previous experience.
"Then carry me, I can't climb the stairs." She looked at him expectantly.
Unexpectedly, lu yichen carried her in his arms without retorting her which was very unusual to him. Even Lu yichen realized what he did, but he consoled himself by thinking if he didn't agree to her she is still going to repeat until he relents to her request.
"Alex, do you think Liam will get jealous if he saw you carrying me." She whispered.
"Why would he feel that. Did he say, he liked you." He asked her his gaze getting colder by the thought.
"Not me, but you. You are so stupid, you don't even know that Liam has feeling for you. Tell me, do you also like him?" She asked him staring at him.
"What did you say." This time his gaze hot even colder by her question. What is this girl thinking all day.
"Liam always looked at me as if I'm some enemy. He wants to chase me, he must have thought I'm his rival. Do you like him too." She asked him.
"Why would I tell you this. So what if I do and so what if I don't." This time he played along to get information.
"I'm happy if you find your happiness and will wish you a happy life. But, why do you like him, is the girls out there not as good as him, if all the men who are handsome will like each other. Then what will happen to girl. I feel so sad." At this point tears pooling in to her eyes.
"Hey, why are you crying for such a small matter." He asked her panicking why this girl is sad.
"I don't know. I just want to cry. What if I won't find a handsome boyfriend in the future because they like each other." She sniffed.
"You are drunk." He muttered and opened the door to her room and dropped her to her bed so she can sleep. But the girl didn't let go of his neck," you can't go until you answer. Am I not prettier than Liam."
"No, we don't have that kind of feeling. Now, you can rest assure that the girls out there have chance,okay!" He told her, so she can let go of him.
"No, the girls out there are not good. I got to know, they are scheming and they seduced the rich man from the drama. You can't like them." She said with conviction.
"I can't like Liam and can't like other girls, then who should I like." He teased her not feeling ounce of impatience.
"Me of course. I'm your friend. You can not like others, you can only like him. But, I feel sad for Liam. He has been in love with you for so long. Am I a bad person who will take his beloved away from him." She asked with uncertainty.
"Just who did you give this idea, hmm? If you got this from stupid drama, then you are not allowed to watch them anymore." He told her.
This time, Evelyn seemed to sober up a little to know she can't watch her favorite drama, so she defended herself," Liam said that. He also said, I'd I get you drunk, you will spill the Truth." Like this she exposed her partner for drama but the thing is she replaced herself with Leon in the story, successfully making his expression darken.It seems, adrenaline kicked her hard.
And her this, innocent remark, successfully evoke the trouble for Leon.
