After Rebirth, I Married the Archenemy of My Ex-Husband
Chapter 37: Setting Up a Game (3) to Achieve What You Want
Chapter 37
An Nuan returned to the private room.
The private room was still blazing hot.
After all, with Xia Qiqi there, there would absolutely not be any cold moments.
Xia Qiqi saw An Nuan come back and immediately rushed over to hug her tightly.
She was probably a little drunk, stumbling a bit as she walked right now.
An Nuan supported Xia Qiqi.
This girl looked really lightweight but would always become like dead weight when drunk.
"You shouldn't drink so much if you can't handle it," An Nuan said, exasperated.
Xia Qiqi was originally slumped limply against An Nuan but as soon as she heard An Nuan's words, she immediately straightened up and stood ramrod straight. "What do you mean I can't drink?!"
"..." What a live wire.
An Nuan helped Xia Qiqi sit down on the sofa.
Xia Qiqi had just sat down when she bounced up again instantly.
She wouldn't stay still even for a second.
She suddenly grabbed a wine glass from the coffee table and handed it to An Nuan.
An Nuan hadn't had any alcohol tonight.
She hadn't drunk a drop from beginning to end.
In fact, she really didn't have good alcohol tolerance. By not drinking, Gu Yan Sheng would drink double portions and naturally get drunk more easily. When drunk, many things could happen as a matter of course.
She suddenly felt that Ye Jinghuai's deliberate actions from earlier weren't just because he was in a bad mood.
He was deliberately trying to get Gu Yan Sheng drunk.
He probably understood Gu Yan Sheng's proud personality very clearly, so he deliberately provoked him to make him drink more and get drunk faster.
Ye Jinghuai was actually more profound than she had thought.
"An Nuan, you have to drink when you're out at night," Xia Qiqi insisted.
An Nuan glared at her.
"I don't care, you have to drink with me until we drop tonight," Xia Qiqi acted coquettishly.
This girl, really!
"If you don't drink, I'm leaving," Xia Qiqi threatened.
An Nuan really felt that Xia Qiqi was still like a child sometimes.
Yet this child who never grew up had suddenly been hurt beyond recognition one day.
She didn't want to reminisce about the past in her previous life anymore.
In that moment, she took the wine glass from Xia Qiqi and downed all the wine in one gulp.
Xia Qiqi's eyes widened in surprise.
It was as if the alcohol had instantly sobered her up.
She had just been joking around as usual.
Having grown up together with An Nuan since young, An Nuan had always given her warmth like a mother, so she would throw little tantrums at An Nuan from time to time. Of course, this only happened when she was tipsy. She had also drank a bit just now and wanted to get close to An Nuan. She really didn't expect that An Nuan would drink it all down like that.
In fact, An Nuan wasn't completely abstaining from alcohol. Usually when they ate out together, she would have a little wine under Xia Qiqi's pestering.
But in an occasion like this, in such a mixed crowd, An Nuan would absolutely not touch a drop of alcohol!
Xia Qiqi looked at An Nuan with only one thought in mind!
She's changed.
An Nuan had changed so f*cking thoroughly.
Xia Qiqi didn't care anymore.
No matter what An Nuan did, it was right.
If she did something wrong, then she would... go wrong with her.
She finished all the wine in her own glass in one go too.
After drinking one glass, Xia Qiqi was still not satisfied. She poured a few more glasses and drank with An Nuan.
Seeing An Nuan drinking alcohol, the rest of the people in the private room also came over on their own initiative to drink with An Nuan.
An Nuan chose to accept all comers.
Gu Yan Sheng came over at some point to block drinks for her, but he was no match for the joint attack of everyone in the private room, especially Ye Jinghuai, Qin Jiang, and Xia Qiqi, and even An Zhao and An Xiao kept pestering him to drink as well. Later on, he was completely unable to pay any attention to An Nuan anymore.
In fact, when it came to choosing between himself and An Nuan, Gu Yan Sheng had never hesitated. He would always only choose himself.
"An Nuan," Xiao Nanchen sat down beside her.
An Nuan was clearly somewhat tipsy already.
So this was what being drunk felt like.
It didn't feel too bad either.
She looked at Xiao Nanchen with a faint smile at the corner of her lips. In that moment, she even took the initiative to pick up a glass. "Nanchen, I want to drink with you."
Seeing An Nuan in high spirits, Xiao Nanchen had originally wanted to remind her not to drink too much. But now he didn't refuse and drank a glass with An Nuan.
After drinking, An Nuan said, "Won't you two drink as well?"
She was referring to Xiao Nanchen and Xia Qiqi.
Xia Qiqi's face was filled with unwillingness.
On the other hand, Xiao Nanchen very proactively poured a glass of wine.
He said, "Qiqi, I'll drink to you and Ziming."
Xia Qiqi pursed her lips.
It hadn't been a short time since Xiao Nanchen came back either.
This seemed to be the first time he had called her by name.
He called her "Qiqi".
It wasn't deliberately intimate, but it also wasn't overly distant between them.
In the moment when Xia Qiqi didn't agree, Xiao Nanchen called out to Nie Ziming who was sitting nearby.
Nie Ziming had been mostly silent the entire night.
The previous An Nuan had also thought Nie Ziming was an orphan, so he would be more withdrawn. She had even thought, like Xia Qiqi, that Nie Ziming needed more care.
In reality, he was only using this method to gain more sympathy from others.
So that everyone would be caught unprepared around him.
Nie Ziming sat down beside Xia Qiqi.
Xiao Nanchen said, "I heard from uncle yesterday that you're getting married soon."
The "uncle" he mentioned was naturally Xia Qiqi's father.
"Oh," Xia Qiqi responded.
She seemed to have mentioned to her dad before about wanting to marry Nie Ziming and move out to live together.
But she had just been speaking casually.
She didn't expect the old man to take it seriously.
"Qiqi is like my little sister, don't bully her in the future," Xiao Nanchen said to Nie Ziming in a very gentle manner.
Xia Qiqi felt strangely annoyed for some reason.
What little sister.
She had never treated him as a brother.
"Let me congratulate you two early on your wedding," Xiao Nanchen smiled very sincerely.
"Thanks," Nie Ziming wasn't very enthusiastic but still raised his glass.
Xia Qiqi still didn't lift her hand for a long time.
She simply didn't want to drink with Xiao Nanchen.
Just like how she didn't want to sing with him.
Nie Ziming sensed Xia Qiqi's mood and put his arm around her. He said, "Qiqi is probably a little drunk."
Xiao Nanchen didn't mind either.
Of course he wouldn't expose his lie.
He said, "Then she shouldn't drink anymore. I'll drink to you."
"You're too kind," Nie Ziming clinked glasses with Xiao Nanchen.
After the two finished drinking, Xiao Nanchen left smoothly.
He probably didn't want to disturb anyone.
An Nuan watched Xiao Nanchen's retreating figure and glanced back at Xia Qiqi.
Xia Qiqi didn't care about Xiao Nanchen at all and was still extremely intimate with Nie Ziming.
She really was heartless!
As the night grew later, everyone was somewhat drunk.
An Nuan was also drunk.
Gu Yan Sheng beside her was also drunk.
On the other hand, Xia Qiqi, who had clearly drank the most from start to finish and gotten tipsy the fastest, could still bounce around energetically at the end.
You really had to wonder if this woman's body structure was different from normal people's.
An Nuan turned her head to look at An Zhao and An Xiao.
The two hadn't drank much and their presence had been weak the entire time, yet they also hadn't left.
Of course they didn't want to leave.
She hadn't achieved her goal tonight yet, so how could she leave easily.
An Nuan smiled coldly.
Very soon, she would help An Zhao get what she wanted!
