Xie Nana: "Little Sheng brother, you must be hungry. Let's go eat."
I was completely speechless. I had agreed to her invitation out of politeness, only to fall into her trap. I glanced helplessly at my silent phone, then at the blushing Xie Nana. My stomach grumbled ungratefully, and I had no choice but to follow her to eat.
Accepting what has happened, I can only play it by ear now. Ideally, I can make her change her mind and send me away.
We went together to the restaurant on the first floor of the building behind us.
There was a white dining table in the restaurant. Two girls inside were busy arranging plates. For just the two of us, at least a dozen dishes were served,
along with several large platters of fruits.
At this moment, a girl brought a bottle of red wine and opened it on the table beside us, pouring it into a decanter with a *dong dong dong* sound.
I said, "Let's not drink wine at noon, alright? I'm thinking I need to find a way to get back."
Xie Nana: "How can it be called a meal without wine? Let's just have a little, then eat, how about it?"
I wasn't afraid of drinking, especially not red wine. It was just that I was anxious about the matters concerning my senior. Being trapped here by her, how could I be in the mood to drink?
Xie Nana didn't care about any of that. She asked the girls to pour wine into our glasses for us, then snapped her fingers, and soft music began to play from every corner of the room.
Xie Nana sat opposite me and raised her wine glass in a toast.
I had no choice. After all, she was a girl and she was treating me to a meal. No matter how anxious I was, I couldn't neglect politeness and etiquette.
I also picked up my glass. Watching Xie Nana take a sip, I also took a sip.
I don't drink much red wine. I knew that any wine served in her restaurant must be good, but I couldn't really taste it. It was a bit astringent, a bit sour, and a little sweet as it went down my throat.
This stuff was called wine? It was nothing compared to the potent liquor I drank at Xie Jiabao's place yesterday. It felt like a ball of fire in my throat. Even though I hadn't drunk it, I could feel its power.
Perhaps it was my blind judgment that had gotten me into trouble, underestimating this thing that was a bit astringent, a bit sour, and a bit sweet. I drank this first glass a bit too quickly, downing more than half the glass in one go.
Xie Nana: "I knew it, my Little Sheng brother is the best! Come, I'll join you. I won't pretend to be a lady anymore."
After saying that, she also took a big gulp, put down her glass, and pointed at the lobster in the center of the table. "This is Australian lobster that was air-freighted in this morning. Eat up quickly."
I picked up the knife and fork, sliced open the lobster, and found a piece to put on her plate.
Xie Nana said happily, "Thank you, Little Sheng brother. You eat too."
I took a bite, and it was indeed fresh, even fresher than what we usually ate at seafood restaurants.
It seemed that not only was the lobster fresh and authentic here, but the chef was also top-notch.
Xie Nana picked up her wine glass again, "Thank you, Little Sheng brother, for coming to keep me company. I'll finish this glass. You drink as you please."
Although she told me to drink as I pleased, how could I do that? Let a girl drink it all while I, a man, took a small sip? I couldn't bring myself to do that, so I also finished my glass.
The service girl standing nearby quickly came over to refill our glasses.
It was evident that the Xie family princess could hold her liquor, otherwise, she wouldn't be so generous.
I raised my glass and said to her, "Thank you, Miss Nana, for inviting me to this meal. I'll return the toast. This time, I'll finish my glass. Miss Nana, you drink as you please."
After saying that, I drank it all in one go.
With one glass of wine down, I felt it tasted better than before.
This time, Nana didn't drink it all in one gulp like I did, but merely took a small sip.
Of course, I didn't mind how much she drank. I was still hoping she would let me go, so I had to keep her happy.
Seeing my glass empty, the service girl quickly came over to pour more wine.
A bottle of wine only yielded a few glasses. I saw the girl pouring another bottle into the decanter.
I didn't pay much attention, thinking it was just a bit of red wine. After all, I drank baijiu glass after glass like this and never got drunk.
I then picked up my glass and, as before, toasted her again, still finishing it in one gulp.
After finishing this glass, I finally realized something was wrong. I felt a different sensation from baijiu.
My head felt a bit heavy, and I was a bit dazed.
I saw Nana seeming to sway. In reality, it wasn't her swaying; it was my vision becoming a bit hazy.
Xie Nana: "Little Sheng brother, drink slowly. Red wine can also intoxicate you."
I said, "Miss Nana, you don't know, I can drink at least a pound and a half of baijiu. This little bit of red wine shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Xie Nana: "It's different. Red wine's effects come on slowly, but it's no less potent than baijiu. Let's eat something first."
Hearing her say that, I also felt it was indeed different from drinking baijiu. The potency of baijiu was felt in the throat and stomach, but after drinking red wine, there was little sensation, yet it affected the head.
Nana cut the steak for me and even used a fork to place a piece into my mouth.
I remembered when I first met Jing Lei and we ate together, she used to feed me like this.
The Nana in front of me transformed into Jing Lei. I obediently opened my mouth, accepting whatever she fed me, eating with great relish.
Nana didn't urge me to drink anymore. She let me eat a few dishes. Seeing that I was still not quite myself, she told the girls to call someone else to help me to my room to rest.
I was still somewhat clear-headed, though I couldn't stand steadily. I thought that perhaps a rest would fix things, so I let them support me to the adjacent room.
I saw a prepared bed in the room. They helped me sit on the bed, and I told them I was fine on my own and they could go and attend to their business.
They watched me lie down on my side before withdrawing, closing the door behind them.
I felt the ceiling spinning like a ceiling fan, the entire room rotating with it.
I thought this must be what it felt like to have the heavens and earth spin. It turns out one could feel this way from drinking red wine.
Lying on my back and spinning made me uncomfortable. I felt if it continued, I would surely vomit.
So, I turned over and lay on my stomach, which felt much better. Lying like this, in a daze, I felt someone come beside me. She lay down next to me, gently stroking my back, my shoulders, my arms. I felt it was Jing Lei sleeping beside me. She stopped moving, wrapped her arms around me, and let me sleep peacefully.
Her soft breasts rested against me, and suddenly I felt a surge of heat. I turned over and hugged her tightly.
She responded, kissing me with her hot lips. I was ignited by her and pressed down on her.
Later, I fell into a deep sleep. When I opened my eyes, the room was pitch black. I didn't know where I was. I stared with my eyes wide open for a long time before I remembered that I was in Xie Nana's villa.
I had arrived at noon, and now it was definitely late at night.
I turned over and felt there was someone next to me. I reached out and touched. It felt like a girl. I was startled. I touched myself and was startled again. My lower half was completely naked!
And the person next to me was clearly not wearing any clothes on their lower half either.
