Huo Junyu was now completely sober.

Before he could react, Lu Lishan grabbed him and pulled him over. Then all he could hear was Uncle Shan's gruff voice talking about how he had made the most of that washboard back then, how he had won over Aunt Yuqing until she had no more temper, and so on...

As he listened, Huo Junyu had another glass of wine in his hand.

In the end, even he himself didn't know how much he had drunk. When he was feeling dizzy, a soft little hand hooked around his arm, and someone's soft voice whispered in his ear: "You've drunk so much, what are we going to do..."

"Just let Junyu stay at home! He's not an outsider."

Which room do you want to stay in?

...

When Huo Junyu woke up, he found himself lying in a beautiful princess room.

The familiar fragrance filled the air, and he immediately realized that this was Jiang Mianmian's room. A wonderful idea suddenly flashed through his mind.

He drank yesterday, and he drank too much!

And it seemed that Jiang Mianmian helped him in.

What if those two...?

Huo Junyu couldn't suppress the upward curve of his lips and subconsciously touched the spot beside him...

However, it seems that no one has any residual body heat.

He lifted the covers to check; his clothes were intact, nothing had happened. It seemed that his beautiful thought was just that—a thought.

Huo Junyu sighed.

The effects of the alcohol hadn't worn off yet, and my temples were throbbing slightly.

But the sweet fragrance on the pillow made him lose his senses.

He buried his face in the pillow and smelled it again and again, then the blanket, rolled around in bed a couple of times, and chuckled softly with satisfaction.

Suddenly it dawned on him—was he really satisfied with just that? No, of course not!

Just as he was thinking of a bad idea, Jiang Mianmian came in with hangover soup and breakfast and gently placed them on the bedside table.

Huo Junyu quickly lay down and pretended to be asleep with his eyes closed.

Jiang Mianmian touched his forehead with some concern, her soft little hand moving down his cheek... Huo Junyu felt as if he were on fire, and wherever her fingertips touched, waves of heat rose.

Although the heat stopped abruptly at the neck.

But... Xiao Xiaoyu seems to have changed a lot.

"Junyu?" Jiang Mianmian called out several times, but he did not respond.

She sighed, her beautiful eyes filled with worry. While wiping his face with a warm towel, she whispered:

"If you can't drink, don't force yourself! You've been drinking like this all night and still haven't woken up... Even my dad is awake!"

"Junyu, Junyu! You're not suffering from alcohol poisoning, are you?"

Jiang Mianmian panicked at the thought of being poisoned and jumped up to run out the door:

"Dad! Mom!"

"Don't shout!" Huo Junyu sat up with a jolt.

Jiang Mianmian was taken aback. When she turned around, she saw that the man looked energetic and didn't seem to be suffering from alcohol poisoning at all!

"you……"

Huo Junyu realized he had overacted a bit and gave her an awkward yet polite smile.

"Mianmian, I'm alright now."

"Are you really alright?" Jiang Mianmian sat down next to him, examining him carefully. "You don't feel uncomfortable anywhere, do you?"

Taking the opportunity, Huo Junyu grasped her small hand and gently stroked the back of her hand with his thumb.

"Did you hear me come in?"

"Um."

"You were awake a while ago?"

"yes……"

"Then why were you pretending to be asleep? You scared me!"

“Mianmian.” He looked up at her.

When facing the one he loved, his clear, deep eyes showed no sharpness, and his angular face softened considerably.

"I came to propose marriage yesterday... Are Uncle Ashan and Aunt Yuqing satisfied?"

Jiang Mianmian glanced at him and smiled softly.

The Huo family's betrothal gifts were impeccable, and among the jewelry Jiang Can prepared, the "Golden Wind and Jade Dew" necklace even appeared.

With such a strong emphasis on the future young mistress of the Huo family, what could they possibly be dissatisfied with?

"If you're satisfied..." Huo Junyu wouldn't let go of her small hand, and whispered in her ear, "Let's get married quickly, okay?"

"So fast?"

"What, don't you want to marry me sooner?"

“It’s not that…” Jiang Mianmian hesitated. “I just came back to this family and haven’t even spent a few days with my parents before I’m getting married. They may not say it, but they’ll definitely be reluctant to let me go.”

"Besides, my mother in Jiangzhou hasn't fully recovered yet, and I want to take care of her for a while longer."

Huo Junyu affectionately patted her little head.

Well, even if I can't wait, I have to fulfill her filial piety first.

"Okay, sure." He smiled. "There's no rush. I'll accompany you when you go abroad for further studies."

Jiang Mianmian laughed happily and gave him a loud kiss on the cheek.

Huo Junyu was slightly taken aback.

The naive Jiang Mianmian didn't realize that the man's gaze was strange, and she wanted to kiss his other side, but he grabbed her wrist and pulled her down onto the bed...

"Ah!" Jiang Mianmian exclaimed softly.

They were nose to nose, and she could clearly feel his increasingly hot breath and body temperature, and...

Jiang Mianmian blushed instantly and turned her face away from him.

"What's wrong?" Huo Junyu grinned mischievously. "You won't marry me, so you can't even ask for some compensation?"

"What...what do you want to do?"

“I think,” he whispered in her ear, “I want to do some morning exercises…”

"Huo Junyu!"

Jiang Mianmian tried to push him away, but he held her even tighter. Then, a deep kiss captured her lips. She was momentarily confused and infatuated, and the whole world seemed to be spinning.
