The next day, I woke up cradling my head and was shocked when I saw Marius sitting beside the bed.
I was not afraid that he would do something to me. I was afraid that I might have done something inappropriate when I was out of it.
Fortunately, Marius seemed like how he was usually. Apart from the dark eye bags after having stayed up, he also sounded a little hoarse when he spoke.
“Does your head hurt? Would you like to eat something?”
I shook my head, feeling like I was losing control of the expression on my face.
After all, it was embarrassing to think about how I had drunk and gone insane in front of him. I even passed out drunk after that.
I was famished after throwing up the entire night, so my stomach began grumbling.
Marius could also tell I was a little embarrassed. “You should get up and wash up first. I'll reheat the porridge.”
The truth was Marius had prepared the ingredients early on to ensure my stomach felt better after I woke up. The fragrance of the porridge that had been carefully prepared even whetted my appetite despite my hangover.
“I didn't expect you to be so good at cooking. Seems like there are a lot of your skills that are still to be discovered.”
As Shannon would say, he was a treasure trove of a guy.
I recovered somewhat after filling my stomach. As my stomach warmed up, so did my heart. “I must have absolutely tormented you last night. I'm sorry. Also, thank you for taking care of me.”
“Sis Wan, why do you still say such outrageous things? It's not the first time I've seen you drunk.
"Fortunately, I’m also someone who has witnessed a huge spectacle.”
Perhaps Marius had been trying to relieve the awkward atmosphere, but I had to lower my head after I heard that.
I would rather bury those bad memories deep inside myself than think about them again. However, I was also worried that I would go crazy and do something disgraceful when I was drunk. “Yes, well… I didn’t do that last night, right…”
“Huh?
