Man, what's wrong with you?
Chapter 29 Sleeping In The Lounge
Sherry and Chester had already been chatting for a while and still, the client hadn't replied yet. When they had finished eating the roast chicken, they started drinking beer.
Chester had brought several cans of beer and he quickly went through all of them as he started talking about his college days.
"I heard you were quite popular back in the day. The professors said you were very popular with the girls. Everyone wanted to date you. You were practically everyone's dream guy!" Sherry's cheeks were already flushing as she was already a bit drunk.
Chester could see that. Still, he gazed at her with a smile on his face.
This was a completely different from Sherry from how she normally acted.
"Are you saying that you had a crush on me during that time?" he asked with a smile.
Stunned for a moment, Sherry shook her head. Then she said frankly, "No, I liked someone else back then."
Chester raised his eyebrows, seemingly surprised at Sherry's honesty. "Really? Who did you like back then? Who could you possibly have a crush on?"
Sherry narrowed her eyes and smiled. She put her index finger against her lips and whispered, "That's a secret."
After she spoke, she raised her head and downed a big gulp of beer. Then she clicked her tongue as if to say that she wanted more.
The beer he had brought was imported and it tasted very good. However, Sherry couldn't drink much as she didn't really want to get drunk again.
As Chester looked at Sherry, he couldn't help but wonder to himself if Sherry was the type to get crazy whenever she got drunk. He didn't really like taking care of people like that.
Still, he didn't stop her from drinking more. Sherry was already tongue-tied just from finishing her first can. By the time she had finished drinking her second, she was already leaning on the table.
"Sherry," he called softly.
She merely mumbled in response, still not budging.
As Sherry lay her head on the table, her hair fell consequently covering her entire face. Chester then reached out to lift her hair away from her face, showing her lovely face.
Staring at her for a while, he suddenly stood up.
Upon checking, he saw that there was still no new e-mail—the client still hadn't responded. He then turned off the computer and bent down to pick up Sherry.
It was already 11 at night. He had gotten her address from her resume but he didn't want to drive her home.
So he went up to the elevator to take her to the lounge behind his office.
Suddenly, Sherry groaned, giving a loud burp. Chester merely smiled to himself upon hearing this. She was so different to how she normally acted.
"You said it yourself. I've already signed my name..." she said in a daze.
After a few moments of silence, Chester asked, "What did you just say?"
