When I arrived at the hotel, Cheng Lin was already sitting next to Qian Fan. She was holding her phone, seemingly chatting with him about something. Upon seeing me, she smiled and looked a bit aggrieved, saying, "Zixuan, you finally made it! I've been suffering all this time, waiting for your forgiveness."
"It's fine," I replied, feeling tired and not wanting to pretend anymore. Let things be as they are.
"Zixuan, come sit!" Xiaowan waved at me. I smiled and walked over. The dishes were served quickly. Cheng Lin kept recommending dishes to Qian Fan, seemingly unaware that her behavior could easily lead to misunderstandings. Zhang Yue tugged at her arm, signaling her to tone it down a bit. But Cheng Lin seemed oblivious, continuously serving food to Qian Fan.
With a cheerful smile, she said, "Qian Fan, you have to try this; it's really delicious!"
"Thank you," Qian Fan replied with a smile as he put down his chopsticks.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Lin exclaimed dramatically. "Aren't you going to eat? Is it not good?"
"I'm full," Qian Fan said as he started to get up.
But Cheng Lin stopped him, saying, "Don't go yet; Zixuan hasn't eaten."
"I've finished eating," Qian Fan continued to smile lightly. "You all enjoy."
"No way! Today is Zixuan's birthday; you have to eat more," Cheng Lin insisted stubbornly.
I chuckled and said, "He's not interested in these dishes; I'll eat instead."
"That won't do!" Cheng Lin looked displeased. "It's your birthday today; he’s your boyfriend—how can he not join you for a meal?"
"How about this!" Cheng Lin picked up a glass of wine. "Let's drink!"
"I've heard that the more you drink on your birthday, the smoother the new year will be!"
"So we won't stop until we're drunk!"
I frowned, "I..."
"Zixuan won't refuse to drink, right?" Cheng Lin said with a look of schadenfreude. "Is it because you're afraid Qian Fan will be unhappy?"
"I'll drink!" I gritted my teeth and took the wine glass.
I knew what Cheng Lin was up to. She just wanted to get me drunk and then have Qian Fan take me home so she could take advantage of the situation to make a move on him. I wouldn't let her succeed!
With that thought, I raised the glass and downed it in one go. The fiery sensation slid down my throat into my stomach, and I couldn't help but cough a few times.
"Zixuan, are you okay?" Qian Fan looked at me with concern.
I shook my head, "I'm fine."
"Come on, keep drinking!" I lifted the glass again and had another drink.
After three glasses, I felt completely dizzy.
"Cheng Lin, you..." I pointed at Cheng Lin and scolded, "You're going too far!"
"Zixuan, what's wrong with you?" Cheng Lin feigned concern. "Did you drink too much?"
"You drank too much!" I grabbed the bottle and poured it directly into my mouth.
Gulping...
I didn't know how much I had drunk; all I knew was that my heart hurt so much.
"Cheng Lin, you're not human!" I couldn't help but cry out. "Why do you have to treat me like this?"
"I trusted you so much and considered you my good sister, but what about you? You stabbed me in the back!"
"How could you treat me like this?" I cried as I finished the last of the wine.
Holding the bottle, I walked up to Cheng Lin and poured it all over her.
"Apologize!" I glared at Cheng Lin with red eyes. "Apologize to me!"
"Why should I apologize to you?" Cheng Lin replied defiantly. "Stop acting crazy here!"
"Am I going crazy?" I raised my hand and slapped him.
Smack!
The crisp sound of the slap shocked everyone.
The entire private room fell silent in an instant, and the air seemed to freeze.
