125 ....No Evidence? (1/2)

After resting on the couch for a bit more, she sat up and touched her lips, ”My lips are numb.”

”Oh? Whose fault is that?” He crossed his arms from where he was sitting.

Her index finger pointed at him, but quickly switched the direction to herself. He let out a small laugh, ”Alright. Alright. We're both at fault. Call it even?”

Her face flushed at the thoughts of their intimate actions on the same couch that she was still sitting on, ”mmmm.” She agreed.

”So, princess. Let's talk about drinking rules from now on hmm? You're only allowed to drink at most three glasses of wine unless I am right next to you. What do you say?” He walked over with the cold towel that he got from the staff earlier and wiped her forehead. He rinsed it with cold water when she rested on the couch so the towel was cold.

”I...I don't like drinking anyways. Then you better make sure that you're close to me when I drink. Mhmm.” she tried passing the responsibility back to him.

”Just don't over drink alcohol again okay? Especially when I'm not by your side. You were tipsy earlier, but what if I wasn't there and someone tries to make a move on you? You're too cute when you're half sober that any man would lay their eyes on you. There are many wolves out there.” He cradled her face as he blurted out his thoughts.

”Mmmm,” she whispered softly.

”Are you feeling good enough to do the opening dance with me? If not, we can skip it and have guests dance themselves.” He took the wet towel that is now warm and threw it into the guests' laundry bag.

”I could do it. Shall we head back?” She stood up, ready to go. He offered to carry her, but she refused with the excuse that it won't look as great if she was in his arms before the dance. He gave it a thought and nodded, ”Okay, I'll hug you by your waist then. Lean on me if your legs hurt.”

They got back to the party and waited for the lights to dim. Once the atmosphere was right and the speaker announced their first dance, they walked hand in hand into the spotlight. He bowed like a gentleman and extended his palm, ”May I?”

She placed her hand on his palm, ”Of course.” The music started to play and his arm rested on her waist. As they danced to the rhythm, their breathing slowed, matching each other's pace. Their eyes never left each other, and he complimented, ”You look very beautiful.” The sweetness she felt from that phrase made her smile grow wider, ”And you are very charming.” Both of them smiled blissfully and laughed in their little world until the end of the dance.

After seeing the couple's romantic and emotional moment, couples started joining the spotlight and danced with their partners. Ya Nuo and Huan Hei's parents and grandparents danced happily, enjoying their time with their other half. Ya Nuo's ankles were aching so she stopped dancing and Huan Hei accompanied her to their table. While having their own conversation, Ya Nuo whispered, ”Look, it's Mei Ching. She's sneaking towards the storage room area. I've been waiting for her to make a move. Heh, let's go.”

They followed Mei Ching from a distance and saw her enter the storage room with a key in her hand. When she came out, she was carrying a plastic bag and was going to throw it in the trash.

”Hold it right there.” Ya Nuo stopped her.

Mei Ching paused and slowly turned around. She typed on her phone and asked, ”What's the matter?”

Ya Nuo raised her left brow and smiled, ”What's in that bag?”
