Chapter 290: Chapter 290 I’m Not Drunk

"Uh..."

Xu Nianhua felt somewhat embarrassed, this was the first time someone had confessed to her in both her lifetimes, and someone had witnessed it, too.

"How come you’re here?"

Xu Nianhua changed the subject. Today was their class reunion, so why had Pei Yicheng showed up?

"I came to pick you guys up," Pei Yicheng said as he sized her up, explaining, "Auntie was worried about you guys. She was afraid you’d drink too much."

"Oh, mom really... we’re all adults now, can we still get lost?"

Xu Nianhua muttered, while thanking Pei Yicheng, saying, "Yicheng, thanks for coming. I’m not worried about Nian’an getting drunk, I only drank soda."

She explained with a smile. From initially struggling to say it, now calling him ’Yicheng’ felt very natural and habitual to her. She said, "I’m holding you up from your matters, we can get back on our own."

"It’s no trouble."

Pei Yicheng took over the conversation, saying, "Nian’an seems to have gotten drunk."

"Really? He wasn’t drunk just now."

Xu Nianhua said and hurried to get up to check on Xu Nian’an. If he really was drunk, it would be better to take him home sooner rather than later.

When she returned, she indeed found Xu Nian’an drunk. His glazed eyes and flushed face were clear signs of intoxication, and he was insisting on not being drunk, wanting to keep drinking with others.

"Nian’an, you’re drunk. Let’s go home." Xu Nianhua glanced at the time and saw that it was about right. People were starting to leave, so she hurried over to support Xu Nian’an, carefully steadying his wobbly body to prevent him from falling over.

"I’m not drunk."

Xu Nian’an shrugged off her hand, trying to stand upright and said, "Little sis, I’m happy today. I’m not drunk at all!"

Xu Nianhua: "..."

Nian’an, I’m right here!

She watched Xu Nian’an speak to another girl and felt like covering her eyes. She hadn’t expected Nian’an to get so drunk that he couldn’t recognize people anymore. As Xu Nian’an was about to grab the female classmate, she quickly pulled him back, saying, "Nian’an, I’m here, you’ve got the wrong person."

"No mistake, you are my little sis." Xu Nianhua got even more dizzy from the pulling. He shook his head and squinted at Xu Nianhua before stating after a moment, "You are my little sis, my little sister is the prettiest."

Xu Nianhua awkwardly looked at the other classmates and explained, "My brother is drunk, he’s only speaking nonsense."

On normal days, she was quite vain, and compliments from her own brother were common. However, in front of so many classmates, Xu Nianhua felt that her face was quite thin.

"I’m not drunk. My little sister is pretty, the prettiest," Xu Nian’an grinned, his body reeking of alcohol. He tried to put his arm around Xu Nianhua’s shoulder, but stumbled. About to fall on top of her, Xu Nianhua, with her slight frame, looked as though she was going to be crushed.

Xu Nianhua staggered, and suddenly, she felt a steady force take hold of her hand, a tall figure taking Xu Nian’an over. Xu Nianhua immediately felt relief on her shoulders and expressed her gratitude when she saw it was Pei Yicheng, "Yicheng, thank you. You were right, Nian’an really is drunk."

"Hmm," Pei Yicheng said, supporting Xu Nian’an. Xu Nianhua hurried off to greet her classmates and leave.

Once outside the restaurant, Ling Dong saw Pei Yicheng holding up Xu Nian’an and hurried over to take Xu Nian’an, saying, "Did Nian’an get drunk?"

"Not drunk."

The moment Xu Nian’an heard someone say he was drunk, he wanted to argue.
