I Don’t Want to Be Turned into a Girl by Magic

Chapter 253 : A New Year

Lin Nan rarely saw Chen Yao drunk.

The last time, it seemed to be during Chen Yao's high school years, when his grandfather passed away.

That time she drank with Chen Yao, and both got completely drunk, then fell asleep in Lin Nan's living room.

And this time... this should be the second time she'd seen Chen Yao drunk. Chen Yao wasn't rowdy after drinking, just leaning on Lin Nan's body, with her support, holding onto the wall, slowly walking into the bedroom.

Lin Nan used her foot to close the bedroom door, helped him to the bedside, and looked at the bamboo mat rolled up in the corner due to spring cleaning. She decided to let Chen Yao sleep on the bed today.

Bringing Chen Yao to the bedside, Lin Nan was about to dump him onto the bed when she suddenly felt the weight pressing on her body dramatically increase.

Caught off guard, Lin Nan's legs buckled, and she was directly pressed down by the weight, falling heavily onto the bed.

She was a bit dazed from the fall, her whole body aching. Chen Yao's entire body was sprawled on top of her, his eyes half-open in confusion. His breathing was extremely heavy due to drunkenness, his exhalations carrying the strong smell of alcohol continuously assaulting Lin Nan's mind.

This guy!

Chen Yao's face was almost pressed against her cheek. His heavy breathing blew on her already sensitive ears, making her skin flush red and feel restless and uneasy.

"Get up!" She forcefully patted the back of Chen Yao's head.

But Chen Yao had no reaction.

Don't tell me he fell asleep just like that?

Lin Nan's brows furrowed, but she clearly felt something unusual and hot gradually rising up, pressing against her thigh.

Her face instantly turned bright red, her heartbeat immediately accelerated. She frantically tried to push Chen Yao off her body, but her strength wasn't great to begin with. The drunk Chen Yao was as heavy as a pig. After struggling with all her might for a long time, she finally broke free from under Chen Yao, but by then her arms were sore and her breathing was rapid.

Lin Nan got up from the bed, moved Chen Yao's legs onto the bed, then stood at the head of the bed with a bitter face, looking at him with his eyes half-open, clearly not yet asleep, wanting nothing more than to punch him twice to vent her anger.

"Even when drunk you don't forget to take advantage of the situation." Lin Nan complained as she walked to the window to close it tightly.

Chen Yao struggled to turn over on the bed, forming a spread-eagle position that took up almost the entire bed. Lin Nan didn't mind. She casually covered him with the blanket, turned on the room's heating, and only then began to lay out the bamboo mat bedding for herself.

"Nan Nan..."

She was kneeling on the floor arranging the bottom blanket. Hearing the call, she looked up at the head of the bed and found Chen Yao staring straight at her at some point.

"What?" She looked down expressionlessly.

Chen Yao, with his drunk gaze that seemed covered by a layer of gauze, looked at her raised buttocks as she knelt on the ground and unconsciously said, "You're really beautiful."

"Idiot." Lin Nan felt those burning eyes. She looked up in embarrassed anger and questioned, "Are you sleeping or not! If not, get down here and sleep on the floor!"

"But you really are beautiful, and your figure is..."

Lin Nan stood up, grabbed the blanket and covered his head with it, threatening viciously, "Keep looking and I'll gouge your eyeballs out! Say another word and I'll stuff your stinky socks in your mouth!"

Although she had often noticed Chen Yao's gaze falling on her before, it had never been as aggressive as today, making her uncomfortable all over. Unfortunately, Uncle and Auntie should be staying here tonight, otherwise she could go sleep in another bedroom.

She always felt it was dangerous to be with drunk Chen Yao.

After covering Chen Yao's head with the blanket, Lin Nan was about to continue laying out the floor bedding, but when she turned around, she suddenly realized Chen Yao had instantly quieted down.

A news story she had seen before suddenly flashed through her mind.

A grandmother, afraid her young child would be cold, covered the child in the blanket, ultimately causing the child to suffocate to death.

It couldn't be this coincidental, could it?

Lin Nan frantically pulled the blanket off Chen Yao's head again, only to see this guy lying there motionless with his eyes half-open in confusion, without any strange reactions.

"Nan Nan, I want water."

After "seeing the light of day again," this guy didn't tease Lin Nan anymore but instead started making demands.

As for a drunkard's demands, Lin Nan could only accept them. Moreover, during the few days when she had a fever, Chen Yao had tried his best to satisfy her requests.

"Wait a moment, I'll go to the kitchen to get the thermos."

She nodded and left the bedroom for the living room, only to find that Uncle, who had been singing earlier, was now sleeping soundly on the sofa. She could faintly see a palm print on Uncle's face.

Probably he was too noisy and got scolded by Auntie.

Auntie was cleaning up tonight's leftovers. The dozen or so dishes used as offerings couldn't possibly be finished in one meal. Lin Nan's main task for the next few days would be to finish them.

Cola had already eaten and drunk her fill and was now hanging on Auntie's shoulder. Seeing Lin Nan come out, she arrogantly scolded, "You mere poop-scooper actually let this lady starve for a week! What crime does that deserve!"

"Quickly offer up your Chen Yao to serve this lady!"

Lin Nan had no idea what this creature was saying. She just smiled and greeted Auntie, then hurriedly ran to the kitchen to get the thermos.

"Chen Yao's not asleep yet?" Auntie asked curiously.

"He said he wants water."

"Don't indulge him. If he's annoying, discipline him. Don't treat drunk men like human beings."

Lin Nan paused, looked up at Auntie, and suddenly understood this was Auntie's years of experience managing her husband and raising her child.

Looking at Uncle's drinking posture and addiction today, he'd clearly been suppressed by Auntie's discipline for too long.

She didn't know how to answer and could only nod, hurrying back to the room with the thermos.

Pouring warm water into a glass cup, Lin Nan placed the cup on the bedside table and sat beside Chen Yao, only to find this guy had already closed his eyes.

"Still want water?" She gently shook Chen Yao's shoulder. "Asleep? Then I'll leave the cup here. Drink it whenever you wake up."

After waiting a moment and hearing no response, Lin Nan prepared to get up, turn off the lights, and go to sleep.

However, the moment her buttocks left the bed surface, she felt her waist suddenly encircled by a pair of strong arms, then she was gently pressed down onto the bed and held in an embrace.

Lin Nan's mind instantly went blank, her body stiff. Her voice trembling, she asked the man holding her, "What... what are you doing?"

Could Chen Yao be engaging in the legendary drunken misconduct?

"Sleep... together."

Chen Yao's voice was muddled, his words unclear, making it almost impossible for Lin Nan to understand what he was saying.

"As if I'd sleep with you!" She angrily tried to pry open Chen Yao's hands.

After finally removing those hands from her body, Lin Nan quickly got up from the bed, only to see Chen Yao had already closed his eyes, his breathing even yet extremely heavy. Within two minutes, he was even snoring.

Never let Chen Yao drink again.

Lin Nan stepped back two steps, leaning against the computer desk, sighing deeply, then forcefully slapping her flushed cheeks several times with both hands.

She turned around and looked out the window at the dark night.

Accompanied by a rumbling sound, a firework suddenly bloomed in the sky. This seemed to be a signal, as the next second, the crackling sound of firecrackers began echoing from all directions.

She stared blankly at the brilliance blooming one after another in the night sky. The faint smell of firecracker gunpowder reached her nose, and the emotions Chen Yao had stirred up gradually calmed down.

"Another year has passed..."
