This saber-rattling atmosphere makes people want to retreat.
Assistant holding the phone frozen there, the alarm is not, not the alarm is not ......
At this point, Winnie became a little more aware again.
With her eyes half-open, she saw that the person sitting next to her was Cooper, frowned, opened the car door next
to her, and tilted her body to get down.
Channing saw this and quickly went around to the other side, just in time to catch Winnie who fell down.
He stopped and picked her up and walked towards his car.
The assistant gave Cooper a quick nod in greeting and hurried to follow.
Cooper sat in the car, his face gradually cold.
Is this like, the relationship between a sister and a brother who know each other?
On the way back, Winnie kept leaning on her assistant, sleeping soundly.
When we got home, the assistant helped Winnie on the bed and said to Channing, "Thank you, I'll do the rest."
Channing looked at Winnie, nodded and left.
The assistant tucked Winnie in and waited a while longer to see her asleep before grabbing her things and quietly
leaving.
Winnie slept until midnight, got up thirsty and went to the living room to drink water, and finally got relief from her
smoldering throat.
She had just put down her glass of water when she heard the doorbell ring.
Winnie collapsed into the couch, not wanting to move.
Just as she was drifting off to sleep, the doorbell rang again.
Winnie felt her head hurt so much that it was about to explode. She slowly got up, held the wall and walked over,
opened the door, and without looking at who was outside, she folded back and collapsed into the couch.
Channing closed the door, walked in, sat down next to her, took out the antidote in the bag, went to the kitchen and
poured a cup of hot water, and helped Winnie up: "Take the pill before you go to sleep."
Winnie leaned into his arms and frowned, "Medicine? What kind of medicine?"
"Antidote to alcoholism."
"Oh."

She took the one Channing handed her, tossed it in her mouth, and downed the water again, with little energy in
her body.
Channing said, "Hungry or not."
Winnie nodded: "Been drinking all night, all the time ......"
"I'll go make you something to eat."
He was just about to get up when Winnie pulled him along, her eyes wet and dazed with a few moments of
confusion and a drunken flush on her face.
Channing met her gaze, "What's wrong."
Winnie's eyes dropped and tears fell silently, "I'm sorry."
Channing gently pulled her into his arms, his voice low: "You don't have to apologize to me."
"But if it weren't for me, you wouldn't be ......"
"I was going to be an exchange student, not because of you."
Winnie sniffled and slowly got out of his arms, dropping her head, "Yeah, you always have to leave, we're not from
the same world."
Channing looked at her, "Then why didn't you accept Cooper."
Winnie turned around and leaned back into the cushions, "I don't like him."
"So who do you like."
"I like the moon."
"Hmm?"
Winnie closes her eyes and doesn't say anything, as if she's asleep.
Channing carried her back to her room and sat on the edge of the bed to watch her quietly.
Winnie was sleeping soundly, with her arms hanging down slightly.
Channing gaze fell on her wrist, gently removed the wrist guard, looking at the old and new scars on it, frowned.
Winnie mewled uncomfortably and rolled over.
Channing closed his eyes and reattached the wrist guard to her.
He pulled the quilt next to him and covered her up.
......
The next morning, Winnie woke up with a surprisingly low headache and everything was fine except for her thirst.
She yawned and opened the door out in a daze.
Winnie's eyes have not had time to open, she heard movement in the kitchen, she thought the assistant came,
while pouring water and spoke: "You did not go back yesterday ......"?
Before she could say anything, Channing came out of the kitchen and put breakfast in front of her, "Well, it didn't
go back."
Winnie: "......"
Channing said, "Does your head still hurt?"
Winnie subconsciously shook her head.
Channing said, "Then it's time to get ready for dinner."
"I ...... haven't brushed my teeth."
After that, she hurried back to her room and leaned against the door, her eyes wide with disbelief.
What happened again last night at ......, right?
It's over, she really doesn't remember anything this time.
Winnie pulled back the clothes, looked down and did not ...... look like ah.
OMG!!!
Why does she get drunk when she's drunk?
Last time at least I could remember, but this time I have no memory of it at all.
Winnie calmed down in her room for half a day before changing her clothes and washing up and going out.
Channing served the hangover soup and placed it in front of her.
Winnie sat down slowly and coughed: "That ...... I remember that it was the assistant who brought me back last
night."
Channing said, "I'll be back when she's gone."
"Huh? Then you ......"
"Don't just open the door in the future, in case it's Cooper."

Winnie felt that he was being a little backwards.
She whispered, "It's not like he knows where I live ......"
She's had two people come here, an assistant and Channing.
Channing continues, "So you should give me the password, it's safer."
Winnie: "......"
She bowed her head and sipped her soup without speaking.
Channing looked at the time: "I'm going to the office, come back tonight."
Winnie jerked her head up, "Still ...... want to come over?"
Channing propped one hand on the table and leaned down to look at her, "I know you don't want people to know
about our relationship, and I respect your opinion a lot of the time, but I don't want it now."
Winnie didn't respond for a moment, "What?"
"I don't want to see you the next time I'm around Cooper again." Channing said, "Since your refusal isn't working,
let me do it, okay."
Winnie's brain is a little confused, completely confused about what he's talking about: "We ......"
Channing pulled her to him and lowered his head to kiss her on the lips, "You're in charge, sister."
Before Winnie had a chance to speak, Channing added, "Next time Cooper comes to see you, tell him directly that
you have a boyfriend, or I will announce our relationship to everyone."
After the words, he kissed her again on the lips, and then turned to leave.
Winnie froze in place, unable to slow down for a long time.
She was really still ...... last night
Winnie head hanging on the desktop, how can not remember anything ah.
After a while, Winnie shot up and sat up, dialing her assistant: ", what happened last night when I was drunk."
After listening to the assistant, Winnie hung up the phone and called Cooper again.
Cooper got through: "Winnie, are you better, I'm ......"
Winnie interrupted him, "Mr. Booth, I remember I made it very clear to you that we are friends and I don't want to
put words in your mouth, but your actions have affected my life."
On the other end of the phone, Cooper paused before speaking with a smile, "Why?"
"What for."
