Chapter 422 - I'm Just Drunk, Not A Fool
Chapter 422: I’m Just Drunk, Not A Fool
After Tang Zitong finished the hangover medicine Tang Li gave her, she went to drink with a group of women.
Tang Li looked at Tang Zitong standing in the middle of a group of women and was impressed by her social skills again.
As expected, the wedding banquet lasted from noon to night. Many people were drunk.
Tang Li and Qi Yihan instructed the servants to send all the guests who could not leave to the guest room.
The Tang family also spent the night here.
Other than Tang Zitong, the others in the Tang family were also drunk.
Tang Zitong finally settled the family down and was about to come out for some fresh air when she saw a person sitting in the pavilion in the middle of the guest room courtyard.
She walked over curiously and found that it was Secretary Si.
It was impossible to tell if Secretary Si was drunk or not. He was just leaning against the pillar with his eyes closed, looking like he was asleep.
At the thought of this person’s sharp tongue, Tang Zitong suddenly wanted to play a prank on him. She stood on her tiptoes and walked up to him, poking his cheek.
“Secretary Si.”
But there was no response.
Tang Zitong poked his cheek again. “Secretary Si.”
There was still no response. She thought for a moment and a glint flashed across her eyes. Then, she turned around and strode towards the room she was staying in tonight. Soon, she found an eyebrow pencil from her bag and walked up to Secretary Si. She called him again. This time, she called him by his name instead of Secretary Si. “Si Haocheng.”
Secretary Si still did not respond.
The smile on Tang Zitong’s face widened. She took the eyebrow pencil and drew on his face.
At the same time, she thought to herself, “Since your tongue is so sharp, I’ll write the word sharp-tongued on your face.”
At this thought, the tip of the pen landed on Secretary Si’s left cheek.
She held her breath and stared at his face seriously.
However, as soon as she finished writing, Secretary Si suddenly opened his eyes.
Only then did Tang Zitong realize that his eyes were long and narrow. Without glasses, when he looked straight at someone, he was especially focused, as if… he was looking at the person he loved.
For some reason, Tang Zitong’s heart started racing. She looked at the word on Secretary Si’s cheek and quickly hid her hand behind her back. She smiled awkwardly and said, “Secretary Si, did I wake you up?”
Then, she quickly found an excuse for herself. “I saw you sleeping outside and wanted to take you to rest in the guest room. Although the weather is hot now, the Qi family’s garden is still a little cold at night. It will be troublesome if you catch a cold.”
Secretary Si stared at Tang Zitong for a while and suddenly asked, “Are you concerned about me?”
Tang Zitong opened her mouth and was about to refute when Secretary Si reached out to push his glasses.
However, he didn’t find his glasses on his face. Without suspecting anything, he put down his hand. After a while, he reached out to her and said politely, “Please help me up. I’m a little dizzy, so I probably won’t be able to walk back to the guest room by myself.”
This was the first time Tang Zitong saw Secretary Si being so polite. For a moment, she felt like she was in a dream.
She waved her hand in front of Secretary Si and asked, “Secretary Si, how much is this?”
Secretary Si looked at her fingers. When Tang Zitong thought that he was drunk and couldn’t see clearly, he said, “I’m just drunk. I’m not a fool.”
Tang Zitong was speechless.
She snorted. Thinking that since he was still conscious, she would negotiate with him. She crossed her arms and said, “I can help you to the guest room, but I have a condition.”
Secretary Si looked at her and did not speak.
Tang Zitong didn’t care if he wanted to say anything or not. She continued, “As long as you swear not to be mean to me again and say that I’m beautiful, I’ll help you up.”
Secretary Si looked at her.
She looked back at him.
The two of them stared at each other for a while before Secretary Si said, “I swear I’ll never be mean to you again. Also, you’re very beautiful.”
Tang Zitong was instantly happy. She walked up to him and was about to help him up.
However, when her hand touched his arm, Tang Zitong found that his body seemed to have stiffened. She looked at him in surprise.
Secretary Si only said two words. “I’m dizzy.”
These two words actually made Tang Zitong’s heart tremble.
When she helped him up, she thought that since he was drunk and didn’t have the energy to bicker with her, she started to nag at him. “Secretary Si, you’re so handsome and your job is good. If you can change your habit of talking nonsense and smile more, there will definitely be many girls who like you. You won’t be single at this age.”
Secretary Si did not speak.
Tang Zitong was excited and continued, “I heard that your family are all intellectuals. Why do people like you, who were born with a silver spoon, always look like the world owes you a few hundred million?”
“You have to change that. Otherwise, no girls will like you.”
The more Tang Zitong spoke, the more excited she became. She didn’t realize that Secretary Si had been looking at her and listening quietly.
After Tang Zitong helped Secretary Si into the guest room, she heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Here we are. Secretary Si, you’re really heavy.”
With that, she was about to remove his arm from her shoulder when she tripped and fell onto the bed.
“Ah!”
Tang Zitong thought to herself, “It’s over, it’s over. I’m going to be flattened by Secretary Si.” In the next moment, a strong arm wrapped around her waist. With a bang, Tang Zitong’s forehead hit Secretary Si’s chest.
“Ummm…”
Tang Zitong was confused for a long while before she realized that she was lying on Secretary Si.
She looked at him and found that he was frowning as if he was in pain. She asked, “Secretary Si, are you alright?”
Secretary Si said after a few seconds, “If you get up from me, I should be alright.”
Tang Zitong was stunned for a moment. She suddenly realized that his body was a little different. She blushed and quickly climbed down from his body. As she crawled, she thought embarrassedly, “Oh my god, Secretary Si can still have a reaction. Isn’t he not interested in women, or am I simply too charming?”
The more she thought about it, the more embarrassed she felt. After Tang Zitong stood up, she turned around and ran.
Secretary Si laid on the bed, looking at the ceiling in a daze.
