As soon as Ye Chengguan reached the door, he heard dissatisfied grumbles coming from the room: "Xiaowei, Xiaolian, where is the wine I want?"
Xiaowei looked at Ye Chengguan, whose face gradually darkened, and was so frightened that she was trembling all over and dared not speak to him.
Ye Chengguan walked into the room and saw Hua Rujin slumped on the ground, rolling around looking for wine.
Xiaowei and Ting'an both complained secretly, but no one dared to answer.
Ye Chengguan walked forward slowly, held her back on the bed with a gloomy face, smelled the strong smell of wine, which was very pungent, and said in a cold tone: "Why are you hanging out with Prince Ning?
Are you still drunk and looking like this?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Hua Rujin opened her eyes dimly, looked at the figure moving in front of her, and said with a blushing smile: "It's Mr. Ye. Mr. Ye is not handling official business in the government office, why did you come out to drink?
?Exactly, I haven’t had enough fun just now. Since you’re here, sir, why don’t you have a few drinks with me?”
After saying that, he rushed under the bed and prepared to go find wine.
"What a drunkard."
Ye Chengguan pushed her back on the bed angrily and warned in a deep voice: "Don't move around. I have asked Xiaolian to prepare the sobering soup."
"Who wants to drink hangover soup? I'm not drunk. Just now, His Highness Prince Ning said that I have an amazing capacity for drinking."
Hua Rujin blinked her sleepy eyes and looked around: "Hey, where is Your Highness? Where did Your Highness go?"
"Miss, Your Highness has returned to the post house."
Xiaowei saw the unhappiness on Ye Chengguan's face and quickly reminded him.
"It's really not interesting."
Hua Rujin curled her lips angrily, and just when she forced herself to sit up, she saw Ye Chengguan taking a bowl from someone else's hand.
"Drink, you won't want to drink anymore after drinking this bowl of wine."
Ye Chengguan realized that she was extremely drunk, so he could only coax her with sobering soup.
Hua Rujin took a sip and felt something was wrong with the taste, so she spit it out: "This is no wine."
"Of course this is wine. How could I lie to you? When you finish drinking this bowl, I will get some more for you."
Ye Chengguan coaxed her for a long time before Hua Rujin was willing to drink the hangover soup.
After she regained consciousness, her vision of Ye Chengguan became clearer and clearer. The words hidden in her heart surged like a spring and she wanted to talk to him in detail, but waves of sleepiness came over her, making her unable to open her eyes.
.
"Go to sleep. Get a good sleep and you'll be fine tomorrow."
Ye Chengkui comforted her to sleep, and asked Xiaowei to prepare some hot water, and wiped the sweat stains on her face with a handkerchief.
It wasn't until he heard the sound of light breathing in his ears that he motioned to the maid to take the basin away.
After waiting for Ting An and the maid to go out first, he stood up slowly and was about to turn off the lights and leave when a gentle call from behind suddenly stopped him: "Sir."
Ye Chengguan heard the sound and turned back, only to see a slender hand grasping the corner of his clothes tightly at some point.
"I don't want to protect Luo Chuhuai, but if you continue to investigate the Zhuo family's affairs at this time, not only will you anger King Fu, but if he joins forces with King Yun to deal with you, how will you handle yourself?"
Ye Chengkui suddenly realized that she was worried about him.
Although he had already considered these things, the words coming out of her mouth made him feel sour:
This girl was so drunk that she was still thinking about me, but I misunderstood her.
Ye Chengguan felt that she was judging a gentleman's heart with a villain's heart. She sat down again, carefully moved her white jade fingers from the corner of her clothes back to the bed, and said softly:
"I know your concerns, but the current court is in a state of chaos caused by the two princes. If no one dares to stand up and clear the air for Your Majesty, once a riot occurs, it will be the common people who suffer in the future."
Seeing that she was sleeping very soundly, Ye Chengkui began to tell her many of his worries with peace of mind:
"I don't know when I started to care about someone in my heart. I have also thought about going with the flow and tasted the pain of separation. In fact, I am already afraid of experiencing that feeling again, but"
While talking seriously, Hua Rujin suddenly opened her eyes and sat up directly.
Ye Chengkuan was startled and asked in surprise, "Did I wake you up?"
Hua Rujin shook her head with a blank look on her face, and just as she was about to answer, she felt an overwhelming feeling of nausea in her stomach.
Ye Chengguan hurriedly took out the handkerchief and spread it to her mouth.
Hua Rujin wanted to vomit but couldn't. She calmed down for a while, shook her head and said, "I'm fine."
His mind suddenly became clearer. He looked at the handsome face in front of him, recalled what he had just heard, and asked curiously: "Who is the person you are concerned about?"
"I"
Ye Chenggu looked at her slyly and saw her cheeks turned red. He really didn't know if she was really drunk or pretending to be drunk.
Hua Rujin's mind started to heat up, she came close to his breath and asked with a smile: "Miss He, is she a princess or princess in the capital?"
"Nonsense."
It was the first time for Ye Chengguan to have such close contact with a woman. When he saw her staring directly at him, his heart suddenly pounded.
"Then I'll take it as me."
Hua Rujin took advantage of the situation and threw him down. Her hot breath mixed with the smell of alcohol made her suddenly bold and arrogant: "My lord, you don't want to say it, but you are still jealous of the fact that you broke off the engagement back then?"
Ye Chenggui shook his head blankly, feeling that this girl was a bit scary today.
"Then your lord just sympathizes with my situation, so that's why you keep me by your side?"
Hua Rujin thought about today's grievances in her mind, and spoke out everything in her heart.
"of course not."
Ye Chengguan's scalp was a little numb.
Hua Rujin asked reluctantly, "What is that?"
Ye Chengkui was forced to be a little breathless by her, so he could only answer truthfully: "Of course it is my love and liking from the bottom of my heart."
"real?"
"Um."
Ye Chengwei nodded slightly.
Hua Rujin smiled contentedly, met his eyes, and watched the corners of her seductive lips trembling slightly under her eyelids, so perfect that no flaw could be found.
After looking at him silently for a long time, she finally couldn't hold back the joy and impulse in her heart, and tentatively touched him lightly.
The moment their lips touched each other, Ye Chengkuan's heart tightened with fear, and his whole body suddenly fell into a state of stiffness and numbness.
All this happened so suddenly that he was completely unprepared.
It turns out that women can be so scary when they are drunk.
He quickly turned over, covered her with the quilt, suppressed his wildly beating heartbeat, and pretended to be calm, saying: "It's late at night, go to bed quickly. If you feel uncomfortable tomorrow, you can go to the government office later.
"
After saying that, he hurried out of the room and closed the door.
Hua Rujin vaguely recalled the scene just now, as if she was in a dream, unable to tell the truth from the false.
Waves of sleepiness came over her, and she couldn't help but fall asleep again.
Early the next morning, she woke up from her dream and felt severe pain in her head.
Hearing the movement in the house, Xiaolian and Xiaowei hurriedly came in to serve them with tea and water.
"Miss, you scared the slaves to death last night. Fortunately, Mr. Ye arrived in time, otherwise the lady would have drank all the wine in the house."
Xiaolian complained while helping her rinse her mouth.
"Master Ye?"
Hua Rujin was a little confused. She carefully recalled the scene last night and said hesitantly: "Didn't His Highness Prince Ning send me back last night? When did Mr. Ye come here?"
Xiaolian and Xiaowei looked at each other with helpless expressions on their faces.
