Chapter 173 Drunk
After an hour, Ning Yi was so drunk that she slumped in her chair, clutching her stomach with one hand and waving her other hand repeatedly.
"No, no, I really can't take it anymore, my stomach is so full... so full."
"I feel...I...I'm soaking in a wine jar," Ning Yi said, her face turning red and her words becoming somewhat incoherent.
Yunxia was also a little drunk, but not to this extent. She reached out and patted her shoulder, asking, "Can't take it anymore?"
"Is it really over?"
Ning Yi shook her head and then lay down on the table.
Yunxia glanced at the remaining bottle of wine and shrugged: "Looks like my alcohol tolerance really isn't that great."
"Then I'll drink it all by myself."
After saying that, she picked up the bottle of wine and continued drinking it by herself.
Yunxia looked out the window, appearing somewhat melancholy. She sighed and continued drinking.
The constant text message notifications on her phone were getting irritating. Yunxia picked up her phone from the table and rolled her eyes.
The phone screen showed a text message from Fan Heng, her ex-boyfriend.
She met Fan Heng during her university years, and they dated for over a year. However, in the end, because Fan Heng chose to study abroad, Yun Xia decisively decided to break up with him.
While going abroad was a rational and promising choice for Fan Heng, it wasn't for Yun Xia.
She is just an ordinary woman with her own selfish desires. If she can't see her partner for three to five years, a long-distance relationship across provinces is one thing, but this is a cross-border long-distance relationship.
Even the timing is inconsistent, so who can guarantee how long this relationship will last?
Moreover, Fan Heng's family also wanted him to develop his career abroad because they had the resources in that area. Yun Xia didn't threaten to break up with Fan Heng back then; she knew she couldn't and shouldn't stop him.
This is not only his own ideal, but also his family's expectation of him.
Therefore, she decided that a short, sharp pain was better than a long, drawn-out one, and took the initiative to break up with him.
Back in college, their relationship was very sweet. Fan Heng was a considerate and outstanding man, handsome, good-tempered, and from a good family. But not everyone you meet will be the one who stays with you until the end.
Yunxia was actually in a lot of pain after the breakup. She had a heart, and no matter how strong she appeared on the surface, she was naturally saddened by the separation and reluctance to part.
She could only comfort herself again and again, telling herself that if it hurts now, it won't hurt anymore later.
During that period, she found it difficult to get over it. She deleted all of Fan Heng's contact information. In fact, through this incident, she realized that perhaps she was not part of Fan Heng's future.
Fan Heng knew that Yunxia couldn't accept a long-distance relationship, so he didn't try to stop her and still chose to go abroad.
However, during this time, Fan Heng returned to China. He got Yunxia's current phone number from someone else and tried to add her on WeChat, but Yunxia didn't accept his request. So he sent Yunxia a text message instead.
Fan Heng meant that he had never forgotten the moments he shared with Yunxia, and that he hoped Yunxia could give him another chance to win her back during his trip back to China.
But for Yunxia, their relationship was long over. After Fan Heng, she had new relationships, so Fan Heng was just a thing of the past, and she had no intention of going back to him.
Fan Heng: I went back to Ocean University of China yesterday, and it suddenly struck me how fast time flies. Back then, we would go for a walk on the playground together every night, and now the younger students are still doing the same. It's quite moving.
Fan Heng: Happy New Year, Xiaxia
Fan Heng: Did you eat dumplings today?
Fan Heng: Did you go back to Ocean University after that?
Fan Heng: Can we meet?
Fan Heng: It's fine anywhere.
Fan Heng: It's been cold lately, so please make sure to keep warm.
Fan Heng: Xiaxia, how about we meet up? Let's have a good talk.
Fan Heng: Do you still resent me?
Yunxia scrolled through the text messages Fan Heng had recently sent her, feeling a little heavy-hearted. She hadn't replied to any of them, not wanting to give Fan Heng any hope, and she didn't have time to deal with these things.
Resentment? Maybe there was resentment right after the breakup. Although I tried to be open-minded, I still felt sad because Fan Heng wouldn't compromise or try to win me back.
Even though she knew that Fan Heng should be like this, that he should stick to his ideals and study abroad, seeing him so determined made her feel sorry for herself.
Yunxia took another big gulp of wine from the bottle, scratched her hair in frustration, stared out the window for a long time, and finally picked up her phone to reply to the text message.
Yunxia: It's all in the past. I'm not one to dwell on the past. Don't waste your time on me.
Fan Heng replied almost instantly.
Fan Heng: You've finally agreed to talk to me. Let's meet. I want to say this in person.
It seems that Fan Heng won't give up until they meet.
Yunxia: Okay, it'll be in Xuan'an City tomorrow night. I'll send you the address then.
Fan Heng on the other end of the phone was clearly pleased and readily agreed, even suggesting adding her back on WeChat, but Yun Xia didn't respond, so Fan Heng dropped the idea.
After a while, Yunxia noticed that it was getting late, turned to look at Ningyi who was still sleeping, and rubbed her temples.
We need to send her back.
Just as she was wondering whether to send him to a hotel to stay with her or send him back to Ning Yi's house, Ning Yi's phone rang.
Yunxia picked up Ningyi's phone and saw that the caller ID was Ji Yan. On a whim, she answered the call.
"Xiao Yi, are you resting?" Ji Yan asked from the other end.
Yunxia said into the phone, "Hello, this is Yunxia, Xiaoyi's friend. She's with me right now; she drank a little too much and is a bit drunk."
"Why don't you come and pick her up?"
Ji Yan's voice on the other end of the phone lowered slightly, sounding somewhat worried: "Are you very drunk?"
"Okay, I'll come pick her up."
Then Yunxia sent the address to Ji Yan through Ningyi's phone.
After a while, Ji Yan picked up Ning Yi, booked a hotel for Yun Xia, said a few words, and then took Ning Yi away.
Ji Yan frowned as he looked at Ning Yi's flushed face. He reached out and gently pinched her cheek: "You can't drink, yet you drank so much?"
Ning Yi felt something itchy on her face, scratched it casually with her hand, and hummed a couple of times.
"Do you know who I am?" Ji Yan asked, leaning closer.
She seemed to sense someone talking to her, and tried to open her eyes, her eyebrows furrowing and her gaze somewhat unfocused. After a while, she looked at Ji Yan and asked, "You... what are you doing here?"
"I'm not...and...and Sister Xiaxia."
Ji Yan sighed helplessly, helped her sit up, and said, "Don't move around, I'm going to drive now, otherwise you'll feel nauseous later."
Afterwards, Ji Yan drove to the Yunding Hotel, which he had invested in. Seeing that Ning Yi was unconscious, he simply carried her out of the car in a princess carry.
Then, take the elevator directly from the underground parking garage to the presidential suite on the top floor.
Because the presidential suite on the top floor of this hotel was designed specifically for him, very few people besides him can reach the top floor by elevator.
