Chapter 236

Alexander lifted his hand and gently stroked Lily’s back while comforting her, “If you can‘t handle your
alcohol, you shouldn‘t have drunk so much. It‘s dangerous if you get drunk out there!”

He was grateful that Lily could get lome safely and relieved he came back at the right time to let her in.
Otherwise, Lily would have gotten left outside. Lily looked at Alexander and smiled sillily, “I didn‘t drink
inuch! ] – Just...” She brought her hand to his face and waved in front of him.

She tried to count her fingers using her other hand, “O–One, two, three. Only five glasses! It wasn‘t that
much! Let me tell you; Jenny was the one who had too much! After the first five minutes, she was
already d–drunk! Hehehe...”

Alexander was speechless. Lily was such a horrible drinker. She was already in this state, yet she still
had the strength to make fun of others.

“You‘re not allowed to drink without my presence,” Alexander instructed, deciding he needed to set
some rules or Lily would take it too far.

Lily smiled at him, “Does that mean I can drink as much as I want whenever you‘re around? Let‘s have
a drink now! Married couples usually toast, but we haven‘t done that yet.”

She raised her head and looked at him. Her cheeks were flushed red, and her eyes curved into
crescent moon shapes as she smiled at him. Even though she smelled of alcohol, Alexander still found
her especially attractive in this state. Her smile made his heart flutter.

“Okay, let‘s do it, but not now!” He said.

“Why?” Lily asked as she pushed his hand unhappily.



“I‘m not going to drink with someone so wasted. We‘ll do it when you‘re sober,” Alexander added.

“B–But I‘m not drunk!” Lily pouted and threw a minor tantrum. Alexander was slightly surprised that Lily
knew he was talking about her.

“Sure, you‘re not. It‘s getting late, so we should go to bed soon. Come on,” Alexander tried to calm Lily
down so she would listen to him and go to bed. He did not want to waste his time arguing with a drunk
Lily. Trying to make sense to a drunkard was just meaningless, so Alexander would make sure to
reprimand her appropriately the following day when she was sober. He grabbed a thin blanket and
placed it on Lily as he noticed her lying down again.

Alexander was about to get up when Lily held onto his wrist. “Don‘t leave!” “I‘m not leaving. I just need
to get a glass of water,” Alexander explained.

“N–No, you can‘t leave!” Lily was like an unreasonable, whiny brat.

“Okay, I don‘t need to drink. I won‘t leave,” Alexander gave in and sat himself down again. Lily was
satisfied and placed her face onto luis palm, “Don‘t lie to me!”

Alexander sat there for a while as he felt her breathing into his palm. Her warm breath was ticklish, and
he felt a strange sensation. However, the culprit was sleeping soundly, unaware of the enormous
temptation she was putting Alexander through. Lily was such a vixen.

Alexander tried freeing his palm, but Lily was determined not to let him go. He was amazed since Lily
was so strong, even while asleep. Thus, Alexander laid her down flat on the sofa and moved her
slightly so he could finally remove his hand from under her.

Alexander noticed Lily was turning her head, and her hands were moving like they were looking for his
hand. He quickly placed a lieat pack onto her palm instead. Finally having something to grab onto, Lily



stopped moving and drifted off into a deep slumber. When Alexander got up, his hands and legs were
numb. He moved slowly toward the kitchen counter and poured himself some water. As he turned back
to look at Lily after downing his glass of water, he remembered Olivia‘s suggestion and decided to
prepare some hangover medication for Lily.
