Chapter 253: Why He Never Looked for Her in Four Years
Whether you’re by my side or far away on the horizon, knowing that you exist somewhere in the corner of the world makes the entire world feel tender and stable. — Gu Cheng
As night fell, the sky turned pitch-black, with the stars and moon hiding away, and the gentle evening breeze made one feel quite comfortable.
By 11:30 PM, the party finally came to an end, and the crowd left the restaurant in pairs and groups.
Even though Jiang An had developed a better tolerance for alcohol over the years, she couldn’t hold out against the onslaught of the group’s drinking at the table, and unsurprisingly, she was completely drunk early on.
Ji Wanwan, who had abstained from drinking throughout to look after the children, helped Jiang An downstairs, exerting a great deal of effort to get both the child and her into the car. Taking the driver’s seat, she stepped on the gas pedal and followed the navigation towards Jiang An’s apartment.
Along the way, the alcohol-soaked Jiang An slumped in the passenger seat, and like Gao Yan in the backseat, quietly fell asleep.
Before long, the car arrived at the base of the apartment building. Ji Wanwan turned off the engine, first looked back at the sweetly sleeping Gao Yan in the backseat, and then gently patted Jiang An in the passenger seat, softly calling out, "Anan, we’re home."
Half-asleep, Jiang An opened her eyes slightly; her drunkenness had not completely worn off. Her long eyelashes fluttered, and upon recognizing the person beside her, she spoke drunkenly with a flushed face, "Don’t stop me, I can still drink!"
Ji Wanwan, who was beside her, quickly covered her mouth, afraid of disturbing the child already asleep in the backseat. Seeing that Jiang An had completely lost consciousness after drinking, Ji Wanwan sighed, got out of the car, walked around to the other side of the car, and helped the muttering Jiang An out.
Leaning on her shoulder, although her speech was slurred, she kept talking non-stop.
