Because I simply love you

Chapter 522: Christmas special extra: Drunken Nana once again!

“Merry Christmas!!!”

In Liu villa, everybody was gathered to celebrate Christmas. Christmas trees were decorated and lit everywhere, and the kids were decorating a few more.

Nuo’s gaze sparkled. “Dada! I want to put the star on the twee!”

Jinhai picked her up and chuckled. “Of course, dear.”

She fixed the star on top of the Christmas tree.

“Yayyyyy!!”

The twin’s mouth twitched. “Dada. Nuo has put the star to all the trees until now.”

Jinhai raised a brow. “So?”

“When will we get the chance?”

“Never?”

“…”

Jun wasn’t that interested in decorating Christmas trees, so he was quietly hiding from Nana to save himself from helping others.

But Liu Chunhua caught him. “Jun dear. Don’t hide. You have to help too, or how will you enjoy the celebration?”

Jun seriously said, “This isn’t enjoyment but torture for me. Festivals are too loud.”

“Don’t worry. Learn to enjoy this torture. You will surely have loads of fun. Come with me. Let’s decorate that tree.”

“…”

She dragged him away from his hiding spot.

Liang Xiao Dan and Huo Xiao Fan were taking care of the youngest son Jin and Serena’s twins, Yunru and Yubi. Grandma Liu was also watching over them and playing with them.

“Baaaaaaaaa….Baaaaa!!”

The babies weren’t any less excited. They felt the celebration in the air and were hopping and flailing their bodies in their grandmother’s arms.

Liang Xiao Dan and Huo Xiao Fan almost fainted with the cuteness overload.

Liang Zou and Huo Shen whined. “Hey…let us hold them too. You are hogging all of them.”

“No,” they said together.

So harsh!

Zixin, Meirong, and Meixiu and Bao were running around and excitedly putting the flowers and decorative laces on the walls.

The Christmas celebration was going in full swing.

Liu Hai laughed. “Hoho! It’s Christmas time!” He wore the red Christmas cap on his head and was running around with the children, throwing candies everywhere.

The Liang and Xiang family were speechless.

Such a child…

Chen Liling sighed. “Bro, please. You are embarrassing.”

“Heh! You are just jealous of my outfit!”

Jing and Yukito were lost in their own lovey-dovey world while Yukira and Yu Ichika helped Huian and Nana with the kitchen work.

Jianyu, Shin, and Liwei had already started to play some board games and betting things like…

Jianyu laughed. “Hah! I won! Shin! I won 2 million dollars from you and my dear brother-in-law; I won the property in Shanghai!”

Shin and Liwei grimaced.

Shin said, “Don’t be so happy. Don’t forget that you have also lost the right to the Z project worth billions of dollars.”

Liwei sneered. “Next win is mine. Let’s bet something more fun.”

Serena, who was passing by, couldn’t help but twitch her brow.

What are they doing betting millions of dollars and properties on a mere board game? Seriously men are impossible…

Nana had prepared a feast for everybody, and just before the dinner started, she finally wheeled in the Christmas cake. “Everybody! The Christmas cake is ready!”

Everybody loudly cheered and gathered around the cake.

Liu Hai patted on Jinhai’s shoulder. “Jinhai, my boy! Let us enjoy some exquisite whiskey I have specially ordered from France. We will have a blast after the feast, haha!”

Jinhai said, “I won’t drink much. I want to enjoy Christmas with my dear wife.”

“Che. Such a party pooper.”

But in the kitchen, Jing had already opened the whiskey bottle and poured himself a cup.

“Yum! So delicious! I should totally make Yukito taste this!” and he ran off without putting the bottle back in place.

When Nana entered the kitchen after everybody ate the cake, she saw the whiskey bottle with a sweet smell wafting from it.

“Hmm…such nice smell. What is this?” she wondered. “A new kind of juice?”

She didn’t know how to read French, so she couldn’t understand what was written on the label. But she couldn’t resist the smell, so she poured herself a cup.

She first took a sip. “Hm! Delicious!”

Unlike regular whiskeys, this one wasn’t bitter. Even the color was different.

Then she downed it one gulp.

Nana nodded in appreciation. “This is so tasty! What kind of juice is this?”

She helped herself with two more cups and then…

—

After the feast and cake, everybody was gathered to play games.

But Nana wasn’t anywhere.

Jinhai asked Jun, lying on the couch, who looked as if his soul flew out of his body.

“Have you seen Nana anywhere?”

He blankly looked at him. “Huh…? I don’t know. It feels like everything is spinning in front of me. I will just shut myself in my room from next time…Celebrations are so tiring…”

Jinhai sighed. His third son was blabbering nonsense.

Then he went and asked Serena, “Did you see Nana-“

“Why is everybody *hic* so quieeeeeeeeeettt?”

Suddenly Nana’s voice stopped everybody from what they were doing, and they turned to look at her.

Jinhai froze. He rapidly blinked his eyes, focusing on the glass in her hand. He could see a little whiskey at the bottom.

Is that what Dad brought?

He shut his eyes in defeat.

Nana was drunk. And when she was drunk, it was chaos.

Jinhai wondered how many glasses she downed with that negligible alcohol intolerance.

She giggled as she walked in a zigzag manner. Her face was flushed red. “Today is Christmas! *Hic* tadah!”

But this was the first time her kids were watching this side of hers.

Jian and Nian asked, “Mama, are you okay?”

“Say tadaaaaah!” she raised her hands.

“…”

Jinhai shot a deadly glare at Liu Hai.

“Hey! Why are you looking at me like that? I did nothing!”

Liang Xiao Dan asked, “What happened to her?”

Serena lamented. “Aunt. She is drunk! We are all done for!”

“What!? Drunk?”

Nana hiccuped and made her way. “Answer meeeeeeeee…Why is everybody so quieeeeeeeeeettt? Today is *hic* Christmas! Celebrate! Enjoy!”

Jianyu said, “I am pretty sure we are enjoying it thoroughly.”

“Silence, young man! How dare you *hic* inter-interuft me! How insolent!”

“…”

Chen Liling burst into laughter. “Ahahaha! Jianyu. She scolded you. Pfft.”

His mouth twitched. “I heard that. Hey Serena! You are rolling too much in laughter. Don’t come to me if your tummy aches!”

Serena couldn’t even respond since she was so busy laughing.

Jinhai growled. “Dad, how did she get drunk so much?”

Liu Hai whined. “Heyyyy. I did nothing. Yes, I brought that whiskey, but I didn’t show it to Nana at all!”

Jing stiffened. “T-that bottle was yours?”

Everybody stared at Jing. Yukito facepalmed. “Jing. What did you do?”

Jing cried. “It wasn’t on purpose that I forgot to keep the bottle back in its place, I swear!”

“Idiot son!”

“It’s your fault to keep it in the kitchen, old man!”

“How dare you talk back to me!”

Jinhai pressed the space in between his brows.

Nana shouted. “Enough! In the presence of *hic* Goddess Nana here…this party cannot *hic* be so quiet!”

The kids didn’t understand what was wrong with their aunt, but they were sure enjoying the show. Even the babies were rooting for her.

Nana pointed her finger at the crowd. “A-and it all because of the men here!! One insolently disturbs my speech, and two are fighting *hic* like childrennnn…Shame on yourselves!”

All the men present – “…”

“All the men here are so sooooooooo boringggggggggg. We need to *hic* liven things up. Stand up all men here! Those who *hic* don’t stand will…will face this Goddess’s wrath!”

Huian curiously asked, “What will we do?”

Nana giggled. “Women are all niceeee~~~”

Shin sighed. “Let me make something for Nana to make her…normal?”

Nana glared at him, and he gulped.

Jinhai pulled her arm and softly smiled as he patted her cheek. “Alright. Alright. Let’s get you something warm to drink.”

Nana’s eyes sparkled. “Jinhaaaaaaaaaiiiii~~” she hopped into his embrace and climbed onto him like a koala. “Hehe, my handsome husband~~”

Déjà vu!

She had climbed onto him the same way in the bar that one night almost seven years back.

Jinhai’s heart melted. “En. I am here.”

Nana giggled. Then she got down and said, “You sit here. *Hic*”

Liu Hai was shocked. “Weren’t all men supposed to stand?”

Nana frowned. “You are so shtooopidddd. Why should my husband stand! *Hic* he is not like you! He is a good man!”

The men cried tears of blood.

Jinhai smirked and proudly smiled.

You…you…

Nana laughed. “Now *hic* all men… get ready for your punishment!”
