Jiang Yeyue watched Bai Xiying struggling to help the drunken Lin Xingzhu and quickly stepped in, saying, "Sister Xiying, let me help. You've had quite a bit to drink too; I can take care of my cousin."
She looked at her cousin, who had closed her eyes at some point, and couldn't help but think about how poor her alcohol tolerance was for drinking so much.
Bai Xiying shook her head. "I can handle it."
Seeing Jiang Yeyue's eager expression, she smiled and asked, "Could you help me clean the table?"
Jiang Yeyue immediately looked down at the post-meal mess, her cheeks flushing.
Most of the trash was right in front of her.
She glanced at Bai Xiying, who had successfully seated Lin Xingzhu on the sofa, then quickly focused on cleaning up. Together, they washed the dishes, and once everything was done, Bai Xiying returned to help Lin Xingzhu again.
The drunken Lin Xingzhu, squinting her eyes, was surprisingly compliant, not causing a fuss or resisting.
Seeing this, Bai Xiying's mood shifted; her gaze darkened slightly. She bent down, her slender arms wrapping around Lin Xingzhu's soft waist, tightening her hold. With her other arm supporting Lin Xingzhu's shoulder, she gradually stood up.
Their bodies pressed close together, and Bai Xiying could feel the intoxicating scent of alcohol mixed with Lin Xingzhu's breath brushing against her neck, sending a shiver down her spine.
Jiang Yeyue, waiting by the door, accidentally caught a glimpse and felt her face flush.
She obediently followed behind Bai Xiying and Lin Xingzhu, offering slight support when Bai Xiying began to struggle.
It wasn't that she lacked sisterly affection; it was just that Bai Xiying's position held Lin Xingzhu entirely in her embrace. If Jiang Yeyue rushed in to help, it could easily make all three of them uncomfortable.
Besides, she noticed Sister Xiying was still managing well.
Throughout the journey, Jiang Yeyue was responsible for opening and closing the elevator doors. Once Bai Xiying had helped Lin Xingzhu back to her bedroom and laid her on the bed, Jiang Yeyue quickly suggested, "Sister Xiying, you should go rest too. I'll take care of my cousin here."
Fearing that Bai Xiying would say she couldn't manage as a child, Jiang Yeyue confidently declared, "I have experience taking care of drunk people!"
She had taken care of her mother when she was drunk before!
"Is that so?" Bai Xiying didn't respond directly, instead asking, "Could you help me get something from your room?"
"Ah?" Jiang Yeyue was taken aback, but after meeting Bai Xiying's gaze, she dazedly nodded, "Sure."
"Come with me; I don't know what you need to get."
"Okay."
Bai Xiying glanced back at Lin Xingzhu, who had flushed cheeks and closed eyes, then followed Jiang Yeyue into her room.
