"Why did you drink it in one go? No one's gonna take the wine away from you." Kevin frowned. Daisy's behavior was very suspicious. He could tell she knew what was wrong with Leena, but she was keeping him in the dark. Why was she hiding this information from him? Why was she helping Leena keep this secret?
"Sorry, I thought it was water," Daisy said, grimacing. Who filled up her cup without her realizing it? Well, she would definitely be intoxicated soon enough. Daisy could already feel the shivers.
"Let's go. I'll drive you back." Kevin shook his head at her. No one would believe that such a reckless woman was the youngest female senior colonel in S City, if they saw what this lady was up to tonight.
"It's okay. Edward will pick me up. He'll be here soon." Daisy raised her arm and took a look at her wrist watch. It was quite late already. The party was supposed to end soon.
"Okay. Then you stay here and take a seat. I'll go and talk to the soldiers, in case there is any trouble brewing." Kevin stood up and turned around. He walked over to the group of soldiers who were easily distinguishable as the battalion commanders. Ever since the fight between the new recruits and senior soldiers, Kevin had been more careful when it came to their security and discipline. He would never allow such a thing to happen again.
A car was parked outside the army base. Edward was not sitting inside. Instead, he leaned against the door frame and patiently waited for his wife to come out.
A handsome man's stance, even a casual one, could be fatally attractive to a woman. When Daisy stepped out and saw Edward leaning against the door so casually, her heart could not help but beat faster.
She knew he was an extraordinary man. He had the most handsome face and elegant manners. Even now, his charm and sexiness made her heart run a mile. Her mind just went blank as she stared at him unabashedly. At that moment, she forgot that this man was her husband, not a god whom she should worship.
"Hehe! Darling." Daisy staggered to him, giggling.
"Mrs. Mu, are you telling me that you got drunk again?" Edward did not step ahead to hold her steady. Instead, he still leaned against the door as he looked at her expressionlessly.
"Yeah! You are right! I'm drunk! But how'd you know that? I swear it wasn't on purpose!" Daisy looked at him and smiled flatteringly. Her face was all red, which only added to her charm and cuteness.
"Could you tell me which time you got drunk intentionally? I knew you would do this again, you troublesome woman!" Edward was helpless. He had no choice but to reach out and hold her slim waist. Carefully, he helped her into the car seat.
"Hehe! Darling, you look so cute when you are angry." Daisy seemed to be totally intoxicated. Otherwise, she would never have been bold enough to describe Edward as 'cute'.
"What did you just say? Cute? Damn you. Say it again if you dare!" Edward sputtered in annoyance. He shot a glare at Daisy and fiercely kissed her on the lips. She needed to be responsible for her words.
"Hmm....." Daisy tried to escape from his kiss. Yes, she was drunk, but she was aware of where she was right now. She did not want to make such a scene at the gates of the army base. There were soldiers standing guard not far away from here!
