Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 360 Leng Mei Gets Drunk

"Dean Leng, drinking alone is no fun, let me keep you company." Liu Jinming thought to himself, if he could use this opportunity to spend more time with Leng Mei, that wouldn’t be bad; at least it could bring them a little closer.

"I’m really upset right now, I don’t want to talk, I just want to be alone for a while." Leng Mei’s face was as cold as ever. She was already very irritable inside and didn’t want to talk to anyone. So when she saw Liu Jinming intentionally come over to talk, her tone was extremely cold, not wanting to say another word to him.

"Well...OK then." Liu Jinming didn’t expect Leng Mei to be so dismissive, not giving him any face and directly sending him away. Under these circumstances, he could only leave with a sullen expression, feeling very displeased. All day today, Leng Mei hadn’t said a single word to him that wasn’t sarcastic, this...

Liu Jinming couldn’t understand how Leng Mei had become like this today, not giving him any face at all. Their relationship used to be alright, so what was going on?

Watching Liu Jinming leave, Leng Mei’s gaze returned to the crowd and to Lin Feng. She picked up a glass of wine and began to drink sullenly alone.

...

Without realizing it, more than two hours had passed, and the dinner party was drawing to a close. Leng Mei couldn’t come up with any good way to handle her relationship with Lin Feng. The more she thought about it, the more irritable she became, and the more she drank, until she was unknowingly drunk.

Lin Feng had finally managed to handle all those students and emerged from the crowd when he caught sight of Leng Mei, with a drunken look on her face, sitting in a corner. He was quite surprised. Leng Mei was usually so calm and composed, so how could she drink so much today? He didn’t know what could have happened to her for her to lose her composure like this. But regardless, he didn’t want Leng Mei to end up in an uncontrollable situation. He felt he had to protect her before he went home, so thinking this, he walked over to Leng Mei’s side.

"Why have you drunk so much?" Lin Feng, looking at Leng Mei’s unusual state today, wondered what could have made her drink so much. He didn’t know what was troubling her so deeply.

"I haven’t drunk too much, come... come and drink with me!" Leng Mei heard Lin Feng’s words and, wobbling, extended a hand with a cup to him, still indicating that she wasn’t drunk, although at this point she couldn’t tell if the Lin Feng in front of her was real or an illusion, everything was spinning.

"Forget it, I’ll take you home." Lin Feng took the cup from Leng Mei’s hand, placed it on a nearby table, then hoisted her up, ready to take the drunk Leng Mei home.

"Teacher Lin, do you need our help?"

"Teacher Lin, let us help you."

Seeing Lin Feng supporting Leng Mei, Ye Xiaoyu and Mao Rongrong knew that Dean Leng must have drunk too much and that Teacher Lin was planning to take her home. Both hurried over, intending to help, but they were also very curious. The Dean was usually so cautious—how could she have drunk to excess? It was really too abnormal!

"No need, I can manage on my own." Lin Feng replied offhandedly. Taking Leng Mei home was something he could handle alone without anyone’s help. After saying this, Lin Feng picked up Leng Mei’s purse with one hand and deftly carried Leng Mei on his back with the other, then walked toward the rotating restaurant’s elevator.

Seeing Teacher Lin insist on taking Dean Leng away by himself, Ye Xiaoyu and Mao Rongrong were stunned. Why wouldn’t he let them help? After all, Dean Leng was a woman, and they were girls too, which would make it easier to help. But Teacher Lin just carried Dean Leng away like that, this...

Dean Leng was drunk?

Teacher Lin was carrying her away?

This...

...

The other students were also incredulous. Why had Teacher Lin carried Dean Leng away? It looked like the relationship between Teacher Lin and Dean Leng was not ordinary. Otherwise, given Dean Leng’s usual demeanor, she wouldn’t let any man come near, let alone be carried away by one. What... what was happening here? Could it be that Teacher Lin and Dean Leng...

Liu Jinming watched Lin Feng disappear into the elevator before he realized what had happened, suddenly feeling an urgent sense of panic. He couldn’t care less about anything else and immediately rushed to the elevator, trying to reopen the doors, but the elevator had already descended, and he couldn’t open it. Liu Jinming stared at the closed elevator doors, zoning out. How... how could he carry Leng Mei away like that? How was that allowed! If he had any ill intentions and directly carried Leng Mei off to some place to rent a room, wouldn’t that be terrible!

Liu Jinming had pursued Leng Mei for several years now, and he had never encountered her in a drunken state, not to mention that over these years, not a single man had been able to get close to Leng Mei. He couldn’t have imagined that today, of all days, Leng Mei would get drunk, allowing Lin Feng to carry her away. What on earth was going on? Wasn’t Leng Mei the one who wouldn’t let any man touch her? How come it was fine for Lin Feng to touch her? Could it be because Leng Mei really drank too much today and was so drunk that she didn’t know anything?

It must be the case, it must be! The more Liu Jinming thought, the more regretful he became inside. How could he have missed such a great opportunity? If he had known that Leng Mei was truly drunk, that she had no strength to resist, he should have rushed forward and carried Leng Mei away. What happened after that wouldn’t it have been up to him? Once he and Leng Mei slept together, everything would be resolved, and he wouldn’t have to exhaust himself thinking of ways to pursue Leng Mei.

Alas... Liu Jinming had never expected that the usually strict Leng Mei would get drunk today. How great it would have been if he had reacted faster and carried Leng Mei away before anyone else did! Just now, why was he so preoccupied with eating that he completely forgot about Leng Mei, allowing Lin Feng to take advantage of the situation. Now, he could only pray that Lin Feng wouldn’t do anything to Leng Mei, that he wouldn’t harm her in any way, or else how would he continue to pursue Leng Mei...

"Boss, let me help you." Seeing Lin Feng was about to leave with the beauty on his back, Huang Shi quickly followed into the elevator. The boss had indeed had a lot to drink today. If he drove in this state, it would be too dangerous, especially since he was carrying a beautiful woman. As a subordinate, this was the time to offer assistance.

"Really, there’s no need, I didn’t drink much, this amount of alcohol is nothing." Lin Feng knew Huang Shi was worried about his drinking, but he was aware of his own limits. The alcohol had hardly affected him, and he was still very sober, capable of taking Leng Mei home without any issue.

"Then I’ll just see you to the car, and I’ll be at ease," said Huang Shi, taking Leng Mei’s bag from Lin Feng’s hands and standing by, ready to help should any situation arise, embodying the perfect loyal subordinate.

Seeing Huang Shi act this way, Lin Feng knew he couldn’t send him away, so he let him follow. Lin Feng figured that once they reached the car, Huang Shi would choose to leave. With this thought, Lin Feng no longer objected, and having Huang Shi to help with the bag was convenient.

The three of them smoothly made it to the garage and settled Leng Mei into the car, with Lin Feng getting into the driver’s seat.

"Huang Shi, you can go back now, I won’t have any trouble driving." Lin Feng waved to Huang Shi outside the car, signaling him to also head back, assuring there was nothing to worry about here.

"Boss, I’m also fine. Once I see you off, I’ll naturally leave too," Huang Shi said, waving back at Lin Feng. However, he couldn’t help thinking, how could he leave so casually after seeing his boss drink that much? If the boss couldn’t even drive the car, he could call someone to drive for him.

Hearing Huang Shi’s words, Lin Feng’s impression of this Crown Prince of the Huang Group had completely changed. As a rich young man managing to behave this way was no easy feat. Lin Feng could sense that Huang Shi genuinely cared for him as if he were his own boss. Maybe it was best to let him continue following him; moreover, having such a wealthy subordinate meant that many things wouldn’t need Lin Feng’s personal attention anymore.

With this in mind, Lin Feng stopped paying attention to Huang Shi and drove steadily out of the parking lot, heading towards Leng Mei’s home.

Watching Lin Feng’s car drive away smoothly, Huang Shi finally felt relieved. It seemed the boss really was alright, and he soon disappeared from the parking lot, beginning to plan for the next day’s activities.

...

Much later, Lin Feng finally drove up to Leng Mei’s front door. He hadn’t sped along the way, just maintained a normal driving speed. There was no rush, and since he had consumed alcohol, he prioritized Leng Mei’s safe return home over speed.

"How did I get home? Where’s my drink, let’s drink!" Leng Mei murmured groggily, the statement suggesting she was halfway between drunkenness and wakefulness, after which she once again passed out.

Hearing Leng Mei’s words left Lin Feng both amused and bewildered. He wondered what could have made Leng Mei so drunk, but now wasn’t the time to ponder that. He found the keys in Leng Mei’s bag, opened the door, carried Leng Mei into her villa, and laid her on the bed, covering her with the blanket before planning to leave.

But just as Lin Feng was about to turn and leave, Leng Mei suddenly grabbed his hand and wouldn’t let go, nor did she speak, leaving Lin Feng no choice but to stay by her side.

"Lin Feng... don’t go..." Leng Mei suddenly uttered from the bed before falling silent again.

Lin Feng paused, guessing what Leng Mei might mean. He had long known that Leng Mei had a favorable impression of him, but when it came to matters of affection, he always believed in letting things take their natural course, so he hadn’t thought too much about it. After standing beside Leng Mei for a while, he wiped her face with a towel. Once everything was done and seeing that Leng Mei had fallen asleep, he left the room and went downstairs.

Standing at the bottom of the staircase, Lin Feng looked up at Leng Mei’s room. It wasn’t that he didn’t have feelings for Leng Mei; he just didn’t want to take advantage of her in such a drunken, bewildered state. Just like with Shen Yao, being sober was best for both of them...

Just as Lin Feng closed the door and went downstairs, Leng Mei’s eyes fluttered open once more. Despite the severe headache and the sense of being light-headed from the alcohol, she still vaguely perceived what had just happened. It was Lin Feng who had brought her home, carried her to bed, tucked her in, and wiped her face...
