Just as Aiden was busy morally condemning himself in his mind, a pair of trembling hands suddenly wrapped around his other arm. A pair of large, soft breasts, smaller than Shermie's but bigger than Mai Shiranui's, pressed against him.
Helena had been persuaded by Shermie after all, though she was too shy to lift her head and look at Aiden now.
Seeing Helena practically bury her face in her own chest, Shermie's eyes flashed with a sly glint. Then she lifted her head to look at Aiden and, as if making a big decision, said, "Didn't you say you wanted to go drinking? I know a bar not far from here, it's about the same size as King's bar. I actually went there a few days ago looking for a job, but the base pay was too low… Let's go there."
Having said that, without waiting for Aiden's response, she forcibly pulled him forward. As Aiden moved, he also brought along Helena, who didn't dare to lift her head.
Soon after, the three of them appeared inside that bar.
In a corner of the bar, the three sat around a small round table. The not-very-large table was now covered with various kinds of hard liquor.
All these drinks were ordered by Shermie. She ordered seven or eight bottles in one go.
"Didn't you order a bit too much?" Aiden stared blankly at the drinks on the table. With this much alcohol, even with their constitutions as fighters, they'd probably get drunk.
"Is it a lot? It's just a few bottles; we can finish them," Shermie picked up a bottle of vodka, flicked the cap off with her thumb, and directly poured three full glasses.
"We can finish it, yes, but after finishing, we'll probably be drunk, right?" Aiden frowned.
'That's exactly what I want, for all of us to get drunk...' Shermie thought to herself.
Then, picking up her glass, she said to Aiden and Helena, "Tonight, we won't go home until we're drunk."
After saying that, she threw her head back and downed the entire large glass of alcohol in one go.
Wiping the traces of alcohol from her mouth without any concern for grace. Shermie urged, "Stop spacing out. Drink up."
Noticing only Helena had picked up her glass while Aiden was still frowning, she thought for a moment, then simply got up, sat down next to him pressing close, picked up Aiden's glass, and said to him with a coquettish smile. "Do you want me to feed you?"
Perhaps due to the alcohol, Shermie's watery eyes were full of a dazed, hazy look, vaguely carrying a hint of charm and determination.
Unfortunately, her bangs were too long, covering her eyes, so Aiden couldn't see it at all.
"I'd better drink it myself," Aiden thought it over and realized that even if he got drunk, he probably wouldn't be the one at a disadvantage. He had a vague idea of what kind of scheme Shermie was plotting.
But before drinking, he glanced at Helena. He wasn't clear why Shermie had to drag Helena into this as well. He had wanted to continue the ambiguous tension with Helena for a while longer.
He really liked this way of interacting, where feelings develop gradually from shallow to deep. It was much more enjoyable than just going to bed directly after meeting.
However, since experiencing the taste of a woman, he found it increasingly hard to control himself. It was fine in Japan, whether it was the Kagura sisters, or Mai Shiranui, even including Yuri, they were all relatively gentle and virtuous women when interacting.
But facing Shermie and Helena, with their figures and straightforward personalities...
Well, this alcohol must be drunk, he must get drunk.
Thinking this, Aiden took the glass from Shermie's hand and downed it in one go.
"That's more like it!" Shermie narrowed her eyes and smiled, her smile looking somewhat frivolous.
Then she looked at Helena. Under her gaze, Helena also gritted her teeth and finished her drink in one go.
"Cough, cough, cough..."
This was Helena's first time drinking hard liquor. After one glass, her pretty face instantly flushed red, and she was choked by the alcoholic fumes rising from her stomach, coughing repeatedly.
As the saying goes, alcohol emboldens the timid. After that one glass, her consciousness became considerably blurrier. The consequence of this was that it blocked the shyness in her heart, and she stared fixedly at Aiden with dazed eyes.
Shermie watched this scene with a smiling face, her voice frivolous, her smile frivolous, her expression frivolous as she said, "Come on, let's continue..."
Naturally, Helena, drinking hard liquor for the first time, was the first to get drunk. After one bottle of vodka, she was already woozy and slumped over the table, opening her drunken, bleary eyes to look at Aiden, muttering something under her breath. Anyway. Aiden leaned his ear close to listen carefully for a while but couldn't make out what she was saying.
However, compared to Helena, Aiden and Shermie only became more spirited the more they drank. The number of empty bottles on the table visibly increased, and soon the seven or eight bottles of hard liquor Shermie had ordered were finished.
Probably feeling hot from drinking too much, Shermie tugged at her collar, and later simply undid the button of her collar. Sitting next to her.
Aiden could clearly hear a soft pop from her top, the sound of fabric tightening after the collar button was undone, followed by the "big white rabbits on her chest bouncing several times. It seemed it wasn't just the collar that was undone, but the bra protecting the big white rabbits as well.
Because he had been drinking, Aiden was less restrained. Hearing the sound, he looked over... In fact, because of the angle, he only needed to lower his gaze slightly to see very clearly.
"Shermie, are you sure you really want to do this?" After looking a few times, Aiden withdrew his gaze, looking at the scant liquid left in the glass in his hand and speaking in a low voice.
He needed to confirm again. If Shermie was just joking with him, he absolutely would not touch her.
"Haven't you already guessed it? Why are you getting cold feet now that it's happening?" Shermie propped her chin on her hand, tilting her head to look at Aiden. "Is it because it's your first time, so you're shy?"
"Don't tell me it's not your first time?" Aiden glanced at her and retorted.
"Of course, it's my first time too," Shermie licked her lips.
She was both nervous and excited now, yet she felt no regret at all. Although she had only known the man in front of her for a few hours, she didn't detest Aiden like she did other humans.
This was also the reason why she made her decision so quickly. She didn't feel any psychological resistance towards this man, so naturally, she wouldn't feel physical resistance either.
Besides, she really wanted to experience what a real woman should experience.
So, finishing the last sip of alcohol in her glass, Shermie stood up, hooked her finger at Aiden, and said, "Bring Helena. Let's go get a room."
And her tone when she said this was like that of a playboy who had just caught prey in a bar.
"No need to get a room. Let's just go to where I'm staying." As he said this, Aiden picked up Helena in a princess carry. Helena naturally stretched out her arms, wrapped them around his neck, then rested her head against his chest and slowly closed her eyes.
Shermie glanced at Helena and laughed softly. "This girl isn't drunk at all. Heh, she's even more impatient than I am."
Whether Helena was impatient or not, Aiden didn't know, but Shermie was definitely somewhat impatient.
As soon as they returned to the hotel and entered the room, Shermie pressed Aiden against the door, pouting her lips and planting messy lipstick stains all over his face.
———
A night of spring breeze passes, Two dots of red flowers bloom.
When Aiden woke up, the sky was already bright. The reason he woke up was the incessant ringing of his phone.
But just as he was about to get up to get his phone, a fair, jade-like arm stretched out from under the air-conditioned duvet and picked up the phone before he could.
The owner of the arm was Shermie.
"Hello, who is it?"
A lazy, charming voice sounded, but it made Aiden break out in a cold sweat. Not many people knew his phone number aside from the Kagura sisters, only Mai Shiranui and Yuri.
But no matter who it was, hearing a woman answer Aiden's phone early in the morning would probably make them explode with anger, right?
Just as Aiden was nervously thinking this, Shermie handed the phone to him.
"Don't be nervous, it's a man looking for you." Shermie saw the cold sweat on Aiden's forehead and immediately understood what he was thinking. She snorted coldly, then sat up.
After a night of spring passion, Shermie's attitude towards Aiden had undergone a qualitative change. She didn't use the duvet to cover her upper body, but instead hugged him from behind, resting her delicate chin on his shoulder.
leaning her ear close to listen to his conversation with the person on the phone.
"Yes, her name is King. She's the person I came to find this time."
"Tell her, please wait for me in the restaurant. I'll go see her after I finish washing up."
"Also, have the kitchen prepare something, make the breakfast as varied as possible."
After finishing the call with Shinichiro, Aiden let out a long sigh of relief. Then he turned his head to look at Shermie, just as he was about to speak, Shermie suddenly kissed him.
"I'll be more careful next time."
The experienced Shermie was absolutely sharp. Of course, she knew what Aiden was about to say, telling her not to casually answer his phone in the future. So she preemptively dispelled his displeasure.
With her like this, what else could Aiden say? He could only pat the arm Shermie had wrapped around his waist and say. "Hurry up and get up to wash up. King is here."
"Mm!" Shermie nodded, then just like that, got out of bed naked and walked barefoot into the bathroom, completely unaware of how tempting this was for Aiden. After all, her figure was just too amazing.
Morning was originally the time when men were most restless. However, after last night's indulgence, Aiden quickly regained his composure. He looked down at Helena, who seemed to still be asleep but was actually awake, and slipped his hand under the air-conditioned duvet.
Thereupon, Helena, blushing, opened her eyes.
