It was a tranquil night at the Gao Family Manor, and the silence was unexpectedly profound.
Gao Min, fresh from her bath and wrapped in a towel, stepped out of the bathroom, only to find Lin Fan, who should have been dead drunk, leaning against the headboard, smoking and fiddling with his phone.
"Weren't you drunk?"
Gao Min approached Lin Fan with confusion. When she had helped him return earlier, he had been staggering, and it was only with Gao Shan's support that they had managed to get him back to the room. How could a bath have sobered him up so quickly?
"Wine does not intoxicate; people intoxicate themselves. There are some things, some words, that can only be said when one hides behind the guise of drunkenness."
