Chapter 277 – Self Intoxication (2/2)

“Drunk? No, I, I’m not drunk…” ShenDai Ying chuckled, while wrapping her arms around Rosie’s slender waist and propped her chin next to her face and exhaled.

Thankfully they were standing in an inconspicuous corner and everyone else was absorbed in the lively atmosphere of the dance. Otherwise, these two girls would be causing quite a commotion.

“You slut, seducing men is one thing, don’t try to seduce me!” Rosie blushed and tried to avoid her, but ShenDai Ying stuck closely to her, her gentle breaths brushing across her cheeks, making her feel itchy and extremely uncomfortable.

“W-when did I seduce men… really, Rosie, don’t make stuff up, all this time, I’ve only seduced Lin Xiao, hic… hehe.” ShenDai Ying laughed and hiccuped, the smell of alcohol hit Rosie right in her face and made her feel dizzy.

“You idiot, she didn’t mistake the sweet strawberry wine for juice, right?” Rosie waved her hands in front of her in disgust then used a more stable position to support ShenDai Ying’s body and helplessly sighed, “Sigh, ShenDai Ying, is seducing Lin Xiao not enough for you? Look, look at what state you tormented that fool into.”

“Him? Hm, it’s my fault…”

She looked towards that dejected youth with blurred eyes, and she was at a loss for words. She poured another cup full of the sweet and sour strawberry wine, tilted her head and poured it down her throat.

“ShenDai Ying, don’t drink anymore!”

Watching ShenDai Ying indulge herself, Rosie couldn’t worry about her hostility. No matter what, she couldn’t let her get drunk and make a fool of herself.

ShenDai Ying was so strong in a fight, but she couldn’t handle any alcohol, just two cups of it was enough to turn her into a drunkard blabbering nonsense. If she let her continue drinking, something big would probably happen.

Although they were enemies in the open, but she wouldn’t hit someone who’s down. By nature, she was still a kind person, and never took things personally. That was probably why ShenDai Ying wasn’t afraid to lean on her and get drunk unguarded.

“D-don’t worry about me, I’m not drunk, so I want to keep drinking for a bit… hehe.” She continued indulging herself in the drink and downed another cup, and her cheeks became an even more intense scarlet.

“Sigh, what should I do, something is going to happen if she keeps drinking like this!”

Rosie was getting worried since she couldn’t stop ShenDai Ying by herself and could only seek help, but Caesar and Pelle already left, so the only person left she could count on was Lin Xiao.

If it was the shameless Lin Xiao, he should be able to stop her!

“What the hell? Lin Xiao, don’t you like this slutty princess. Now that she’s drunk and needs help, why are you still dawdling over there?”

When Rosie turned to look, she realized that Lin Xiao was surrounded by a couple of people, one of them being some noble young master called Higgins and his friends.

So it’s not like he wasn’t worried about his princess, but he was stopped by people.

“Strange, what are they doing?”

Rosie didn’t know what was happening, so she could only carry ShenDai Ying along the walls to a place she could sit down and observe the situation.

She didn’t know that it wasn’t just that he was surrounded, something big almost happened…

…

…

Several minutes ago.

“Hey Higgins, aren’t you going to find a beautiful girl to dance with?”

As the dance started, everyone began dancing with their partners, but in the corner, Higgins and his companions didn’t move.

“Sigh, I would like to, but it’s a pity that princess Pelle left…” Higgins rested his chin on his hand, irritated.

Originally, he planned to take this chance to invite Pelle for a dance to bring them closer together. Since Pelle was already fourteen, she wasn’t an ignorant child anymore. He wanted to make the first moved and find a way to win her affection so that he could win her hand in marriage when she becomes an adult on her sixteenth birthday and he could become royalty!

But Pelle already left with his brother, and his dream went along with them.

“Sigh, it’s so boring…”

Higgins didn’t feel too good watching all the other people dance with their beautiful partners, while he was stuck there drinking with a couple of other single losers. So he was trying to find a beautiful girl to dance with to relieve him of his boredom.

At that time, he saw the cold maid rebuking her master sitting across from him and got an idea.
