However, Xu Jiaxing seized this opportunity to persuade him to drink: “if you don’t prepare a drink then we will have to punish you by making you drink three drinks. And Master Bai couldn’t act as a substitute this time because each one of us has to make a toast for him. This is the rule!”

“And if you don’t drink, that only means that you do not treat us as your friends!”

“Yes, we are men! We have to get drunk to be a man! You can’t be a brother with anyone unless you’ve gotten drunk together!”

Although Jian Songyi does not understand whether these people have seen too much or are suffering from a secondary disease from old age, he still could not withstand their crazy laughs as they keep fooling around while drinking. They’re so drunk that they even spilled alcohol around. Even after they’re clearly hammed, the folks really emptied out the cases just like that.

And now that they are standing on the side of the road as they waited for the car, the effects of their wildness was surely evident now. If anyone would take a look at them, they’d immediately notice the listless and delirious look on their faces as if they were mentally retarded children coming out late.

In fact, only Jian Songyi and Bai Huai are the only ones who are standing upright.

Jian Songyi didn’t drink much because he is under Bai Huai’s protection. Although he drank a lot of wine on the side and became tipsy, he was still not allowed to misbehave after more than ten years of family upbringing.

Meanwhile, Bai Huai’s eyesight is just a little bit blurred. And with a 1.8-meter lavender teddy bear in his arms, he couldn’t look more dazed and innocent. Even other people think so too as they don’t really look at him coldly. 

Because of that, Jian Songyi could not help but tease. “It’s cute when you’re drunk.”

Bai Huai tilted his head and said, “I’m not drunk.”

“People who are drunk say they are not drunk.”

“I’m really not drunk.”

“Alright, guy-who-is-not-drunk. Here comes our ride. Let’s get in the car.” Jian Songyi grabbed Bai Huai’s arm and led him to the other side of the road. 

As soon as they got to the car, there was a loud “Bai Huai!” that stopped them.

Jian Songyi and Bai Huai had to look back from the sound’s direction.

The five people who had staggered across the road did not know when they had stood in a row, but it was such a straight line, falling in line from the highest to the lowest in height. With that, they looked like the signal grid of a mobile phone.

With their hands against the corners of their mouths, they all shouted in unison. “Bai Huai! Happy 18th birthday!”

Their voices are at full strength. It was so loud, high-spirited, and definitely in unison that a few of the leaves from a tree fell from the roadside.

In a residential building next to the street, an uncle pushed open a window in displeasure: “That man named Bai Huai must’ve been very amazing at the age of eighteen! The eighteen-year-old is so amazing that he won’t let the eighty-year-old get some good sleep?! Oh, it’s so good to be very young and ignorant!”

The five initiators twisted and laughed together.

Bai Huai shook his head but couldn’t stop himself from smiling: “These idiots.”

Jian Songyi gave him a surprised look: “Bai Huai, I seem to have heard you say such stupid foul language for the first time.”

Bai Huai glanced at him and said, “I’m drunk. I can swear.”

Jian Songyi laughs. This man was so drunk that he eventually returned back to earth.

That’s good.

Life is not a TV series, and the aloof fairies will not be loved by thousands of viewers, so they might as well go to this world of mortals, live happily, and walk for themselves.

Jian Songyi shoved Bai Huai into the car at the back and then looked up the window to shout back at the uncle earlier: “Sorry! But I still want to say that being eighteen is great! Especially since it’s Bai Huai! I know he will do remarkable things even at the age of 18!”

After shouting, he immediately slipped into the car.

As a result, after Jian Songyi got himself in, Bai Huai tugged him by his wrist and pressed him into the corner of the back seat. The bear blocked his way out on the other side so he could not actually retreat.

The driver glanced in the rearview mirror, silently drove the car out, and raised the fender in the process.

The youngsters nowadays yo.

 After drinking yo.

Gee, that must’ve been nice.

As a professional chauffeured car driver, this is professionalism. He must keep his thoughts only to himself.

On the other hand, Jian Songyi thought that he had gone too far and Bai Huai might beat him up. But then he tried to muster the standing of the school bully and raised a brow at him. “What are you going to do? Let me be clear, you can’t beat me in a fight.”

But his lashes blink back in guilt.

Watching him like that, Bai Huai could not help but imagine it as a small brush scratching the tip of his heart.

People who are drunk are so vulnerable.

Bai Huai did not loosen the strength in his hands. Instead, he squinted at him. “Tell me. How can I be particularly remarkable when I turned eighteen years old?” He asked, demanding an answer.

“You can go to the internet cafe openly and start hacking.”

“Be good.”

“Then what’s the big deal when you turn eighteen?”

“For example, you can fall in love or something.”

Jian Songyi was just about to relax when he suddenly imagined a picture of Bai Huai holding a small and sweet Omega in his arms. It instantly made him uncomfortable.

Jian Songyi frowns. “What kind of love would it be if you’re going to fall in love now? Who is there to fall in love in our room even? Don’t you know that this is called puppy love? If you don’t study hard, you’ll always think about something you don’t have.” 

Jian Songyi’s tone is deadly serious and as if he is threatening Bai Huai. he sounded impatient and a little bit annoyed. What is this resistance from him coming from?

Bai Huai’s eyes darkened.

But still, it did not reconcile Bai Huai’s thoughts:: “When you are an adult at the age of 18, how can puppy love be considered? On Lu Qi Feng’s 18th birthday, he was packed away with Zhuo Luo’s first kiss. What if I wanted to fall in love too?”

“Shit?” Jian Songyi’s pupils dilated. He was more than shocked. “This is what Lu Qi Feng whispered to you today, isn’t it? I’ll screw him! The rabbit doesn’t eat the grass beside the nest, and he’s been eating his best friend for so many years behind my back?! What kind of old animal is he?!”

“To be exact, an Alpha and an Omega are not pure buddies.”

“That won’t work. He’s still an old animal of unknown breed!”

“Alright, shut it.”

What kind of old animal is Lu Qi Feng? What about him? Bai Huai is the purest and top animal of that breed.

Bai Huai laughed at himself silently.

He is not afraid of Jian Songyi calling him an animal. What he is afraid of is that Jian Songyi might not be able to accept it at that time, but even the animal would not bother to scold him.

At least for now, Jian Songyi is not on the verge of panic. It seems like he dislikes having a romantic relationship with a friend, though. He seemed to also be against the concept of falling in love early.

But if this is really his mindset, then why would he flirt with him? How many people can stand getting teased every day?

Unluckily, he didn’t want to be responsible at all after flirting, and he spent all day scratching his head beside his rabbit’s nest without letting himself eat it.

It’s exasperating.

But the rabbit bites when it’s in a hurry.

With the drunkenness and the soreness that had been suppressed in the heart for a long time, it could not help but gush up with the alcohol and seep into the blood and nerves. Bai Huai indulged himself to press forward a point. His one hand on Jian Songyi’s side while holding the edge of the cushion, and the other against Jian Songyi’s relaxed shoulder.

Jian Songyi basically showed a posture of being slaughtered, but he was still lying lazily. As Bai Huai pulled him, the neckline of his T-shirt tilted, revealing a large white neck and sunken collarbone.

He blinked naively: “What are you doing?” Are you really gonna hit me? After all these years of friendship, you hit me just because I gave your name outside? Are you still a brother or not? Damn. ” Jian Songyi strongly protested.

Jian Songyi is only playing lip service because he is aware that Bai Huai won’t hit him for real. But then he did not expect that the other guy would actually bite him instead.

It didn’t hurt.

But Bai Huai bit him on his neck, with the tip of his tongue inadvertently licking his skin as well. He felt like an electric current running all throughout his body.

The taste of the pine forest after the snow came through his senses. A rather scheming Alpha easily compelled the Omega. The single wild rose know nothing so he came to show him the forest full of snow. It was cold and strong intertwined with sweetness in such a narrow space. It resulted in such a wonderful chemical reaction from within their bodies. 

It felt surprisingly good that it somehow drained Jian Songyi at Bai Huai’s mercy. Even if he wanted to curse so bad, he remained stunned. 

At the moment, Jian Songyi remained calm. He even had the thought of why would Bai Huai bite a little bit more? If he had just tilted a little bit more then he could’ve hit the position of his gland. It was a ridiculous thought, but he could not stop himself.

But just when he had realized how absurd his idea was and was ready to beat Bai Huai up, Bai Huai let go of his strength. He leaned his head against his shoulder.

“My head hurts.” Bai Huai murmured.

He sounded like a spoiled girl.

Jian Songyi: “…..”

He should forget about it. People who drink so much even forget the difference between the south, north, east, and west. The bite didn’t even hurt, so he just have to let it go.

He was just about to push Bai Huai away when he spoke: “My grandfather came back last night.”

“?”

“He is at home today.”

“?”

“He sleeps very badly and wakes up whenever there’s even the tiniest movement inside the house.”

“?”

“He forbade me to drink.”

“…..”

“So, you see. I can’t go home tonight. I have no place to sleep.”

“…..”

If a person has not heard of Gaoling Flower acting coquettish, then he has no right to accuse him of not having principles.

Jian Songyi thought for a moment that his own bed was quite big.
