He was well aware of how much he had drunk.He did drink a lot, but he was not completely drunk.

Moreover, he was an undercover agent and had taken up a lot of dangerous undercover missions back then, so he had always been a very light sleeper.

Ian chuckled softly.He had wanted to see what she would do, but he was really surprised by her actions.
