Chapter 1256


    North Capital was very cold, so when Zayne wanted Angeline to drink with him, Jay did not stop


    them. He simply reminded Angeline, saying, "Don''t drink too much or you’ll get drunk."


    "Mm.” Angeline nodded.


    "Aren''t you drinking?" Angeline asked Jay curiously.


    Jay wanted to, but he was allergic to alcohol.

    Besides, this was Doomsday’s turf. He had to keep his head clear at all times so that he could


    protect everyone here.


    When Zayne and the others were drinking, Jay unpacked Angeline''s luggage at the side. He even


    made Angeline some oats.


    Josephine said coyly, "Big Brother, I want some too."


    Jay shot back at her, “Let your man do it."


    Zayne stood up and said, "I''ll do it then."


    When Zayne brought out a bowl of oats, Josephine looked at therge bowl while feeling


    dumbfounded.


    "Do I look like a pig to you?"


    Zayneined, saying, "It became so watery when I added water, and when I added in more


    oats, it


    became dry. I ended up with this."


    Jay stared at the empty packet of oats. At that moment, the noblest of hearts in the whole of


    Imperial Capital hurt so much that he winced. "I only brought that much oats with me and you used


    it all up just like that?"


    Zayne apologized like a kid. "I''m sorry, I didn’t mean i t."


    Josephine could not bear to watch Zayne be punished, so she said, "I can finish this."


    Jay walked away.


    Zayne''s emotions changed just as fast as turning a page in a book. Once Jay left them, he resumed


    his carefree attitude.


    "Come, let’s drink some more."


    That peach blossom booze could notpare to the famous wines in Imperial Capital. Its alcohol


    content was high, so it had a reputation for knocking a person out with just one ss.


    However, they did not know about its strength and simply chugged it.


    Once they drank it, warmth came over them like a wave.


    Jay sat on the bed while studying the box that his mother gave him.


    That box was very mysterious. Each time he looked at it, he could find out something new from it.


    This time, he noticed that the frame of the lid was very thick. Out of curiosity, Jay filed off one of the


    sides and realized that there were nine thinyers of wood that made up the lid.


    He dismantled eachyer of wood, and everyyer had a carving of a mysterious-looking map.


    When Jay put them all together, it was a ce that Jay had never seen before.


    Jay put the pieces together, memorized them, and put them back where they belonged. He then


    sealed the side back on.


    At the same moment, he heard three yful, drunken voicesing from the other side.


    "Both of you are my most beloved women. I''m telling you, I shall not allow anyone else to bully you-


    even if that person is the crown prince of Imperial Capital. I won’t let him bully you..."


    Jay stared at Zayne with an ashen look on his face.


    "What did you say?" He roared.


    Zayne was frightened by that overwhelming aura around Jay. He quickly twisted his words and


    said," Big Brother... What I meant was, I promise to protect your two most beloved women to the


    death."


    Josephine patted Zayne''s face. "You''re such a coward. I''m telling you, my brother might be fierce at


    times, but even he would never have the guts to growl at Sis Angeline. Even if he''s ten times as


    gutsy, he would


    just be a little puppy in front of Sis Angeline..."


    Zayne cackled. "You’re so right. He''s a coward who’s afraid of his wife. Coward!"


    When Jay casually walked over, Zayne and Josephine leaned onto Angeline. "Sis Angeline, save


    us."


    Angeline was already drunk. Her face was red and her thoughts were a mess.
