Chapter 269: Badge
Chapter 269: Badge
"I was...sent home?"
After rubbing his sleepy eyes, Leon looked at the familiar ceiling above his head and barely determined where he was... Of course, the main reason was not the ceiling, but the sturdy old man outside the window who was holding a large gardening shears and staring at him with ill intentions.
"..."
This is the sixth floor, you are really persistent...
After looking speechlessly at the sturdy old man clinging outside the window, Leon shook his dizzy head, struggled to get up from the bed, and began to try hard to recall what happened yesterday.
I remember that Lord Taurus brought the brewed wine over, and then I opened all the wines myself and took a sip from each bottle. But as I drank, my consciousness started to blur, and I couldn't stop myself. I drank more and more, and even drank many of the wines in the queue directly...
No more drinking! Since my badge has been used up, I don’t need to drink anymore. It’s best not to drink unless necessary!
Rubbing his swollen temples, Leon began to try hard to recall what happened next. But no matter how hard he tried, his memory of this aspect only reached the point when he got the [Drunken Immortal] badge and walked out of the warehouse drunk. After that, he knew nothing.
After reading the instructions for [Drunken Immortal] and seeing the words "difficult to control one's own behavior and language", Leon couldn't help but hiss guiltily. Then, while praying that he had not done anything excessive, he staggered to the ground and walked out of the room in slippers.
……
"You finally woke up!"
Seeing Leon come out with sleepy eyes, and looking normal except for his slightly pale face, Anna, who was cooking red bean soup in the kitchen, breathed a sigh of relief, then turned off the fire, wiped her hands, took off her apron, and walked over with the hangover soup, complaining a little annoyed:
"Brother! What did you do yesterday? Why did you drink so much? And you slept so soundly that even Melanie couldn't wake you up by tickling the soles of your feet!"
No wonder, I was wondering why I only wore one sock...
Looking down at his bare right foot in the slipper, Leon laughed out loud with a guilty conscience, and made up two excuses to get away with it. Then, while drinking the soup Anna brought over, he cautiously inquired:
"Um... Yesterday I..."
"You said a lot of drunken words yesterday."
Without even looking at Leon’s expression, she knew what he wanted to ask. After a snort, Anna brought out the boiled eggs and toast, and described it with a tense face and expressionless face:
"After Sister Emma sent you back home, you held her hand and refused to let her go. Not only did you keep thanking her, you also sighed and said that it would have been great if you had met her earlier.
At that time, I felt something was wrong, so I secretly reached out and pinched you several times, but you acted as if you didn't feel anything. You just kept pulling Sister Emma to confess your love for you, saying that compared to the alcoholic female monkey, her gentle and kind personality was the type you liked best.
Then she said that the age gap was not a problem. If sister Emma had not been married, you would have pursued her desperately. In the end, you pulled out all the celery and herbs I grew on the windowsill, tied them into a bouquet and insisted on giving it to her. I couldn’t stop you. Then you knelt on one knee and insisted that she…”
"Stop...stop talking..."
After hearing about the ridiculous things he did while "drunk and dreaming", Leon's face suddenly turned as red as a monkey's butt. He quickly held the soup bowl and drank the red bean soup at the perfect temperature. Then he explained with a flushed face:
"Yesterday... that was a special case. I will definitely not get drunk in the future! Well... I probably won't get drunk under normal circumstances..."
"You better not!"
When Anna thought of the scene yesterday where her brother got drunk and grabbed someone and kept talking nonsense, her toes in her shoes began to scratch her slippers uncontrollably and she felt uncomfortable all over.
After glaring at Leon who had embarrassed her, Anna, who had always had a good temper, couldn’t help but said unhappily:
"Sister Emma said that after hearing your evaluation, your director laughed very happily and asked you to be careful during this period and not fall into her hands. Then, she didn't know when you would wake up, so she asked for two days of leave for you and asked you to come back after you sobered up... By the way..."
When she said this, Anna couldn't help but pause for a moment, then looked at Leon with a suspicious look on her face and said:
"Brother, I heard from others that when drunk, people lose self-control and do things they normally want to do but dare not do, so... you don't really have any thoughts about Sister Emma, do you?" "..."
Thoughts and stuff... If I'm not lying, I've definitely thought about it.
After all, Senior Emma is gentle, beautiful, and takes special care of me, and... ahem, but it's just a thought. Who doesn't have some flirtatious, dissolute, or even bad thoughts in their mind?
But these thoughts are just thoughts after all. Humans are not wild beasts that follow their instincts completely, and they cannot indulge themselves without restraint. So these little thoughts will be suppressed by reason after just a brief thought.
However, after entering the state of "drunkenness and dreaming", my rationality and thinking speed have been weakened by more than 90%, and the thoughts that are usually tightly restrained are a little bit out of control, so...
It's not my fault! It's all the fault of the Wine Fairy!
After trying to comfort himself for a long time and putting most of the blame on the [Wine Fairy], Leon finally felt better and said to Anna seriously:
"Don't talk nonsense. Those drunken words can't be taken seriously. Senior Emma has always taken good care of me. I respect her very much."
"..."
Indeed, I remember yesterday when Sister Emma rejected your courtship and wanted to leave with a red face, you pulled her reluctantly and kept asking her several times whether you really had no chance at all. You really respected her too much.
Pursing her lips and enduring again and again, she finally didn’t have the nerve to tell everything Leon did yesterday. After taking a deep breath, Anna took the initiative to change the subject:
"What about Sister Veronica? When are you going to get married with her?"
"This... this is a bit complicated..."
Thinking back to the cunning and pretty princess whose conditions were hard to refuse, Leon couldn't help but feel hesitant.
To be honest, facing Princess Veronica's relentless pursuit, he really couldn't stand it, but... he didn't want to give in to her just like that. After all, although the princess was good, what she really wanted was probably the resources of the Ryan family, not himself.
Although it sounds a bit pretentious, I still want to find a partner who is "for me". Besides, I am not ready to get married early at a young age. Hmm... I always feel like something is missing.
"Let's just delay it for now..."
After saying his signature scumbag remark, Leon, who had fought with Princess Veronica several times but failed to cancel the engagement, could not help but explain with a look of helplessness in his eyes:
"The relationship between us involves many things. It's not as simple as it seems. It's really hard to figure it out at the moment."
"Okay! Then take your time!"
After glaring at Leon again, Anna took a deep breath and then continued with a cold face:
"Let me ask you, Issa, Olivia, Amy, Nicole...what's going on with all this?"
"Ah? What's wrong with you?"
"I heard you mumbling these names last night when I was wiping your face with a hot towel."
After glaring at Leon again and again, Anna gritted her teeth and said:
"If you weren't drunk, I really wouldn't know that you were so... Hurry up and tell me! What's going on with these people? Which one do you like?"
"..."
Rubbish badge! It screwed me over!!!
