Leaving the banquet hall and walking outside, the slightly chilly night breeze sobered Feng Guang from the effects of the alcohol. She asked groggily, "Third Uncle...where are you taking me?"

"The scenery is intoxicating. Uncle will take you to a place where you can rest." Xie Zhan's eyes, like the night, were like an unfathomable abyss, except for the faint, warm starlight.

"It was you...you gave me alcohol..." Feng Guang grabbed her head, unusually throwing a tantrum in her drunken state, "My head hurts!"

She seemed to hear a soft sigh from above, and then felt him carry her a few steps before he sat her down in his arms.

Feng Guang barely opened his eyes and saw that he was in a pavilion. This was a pavilion in the Imperial Garden, and it looked quite beautiful in the night.

Xie Zhan rubbed her temples with one hand, "I didn't know that Feng Guang would have a headache after drinking alcohol, it's my fault."

He rubbed her head, which made her feel much better. She obediently leaned against his chest, but still frowned, looking unhappy.

Xie Zhan chuckled again and said, "You only act angry like this when you're drunk."

In the past, she would have just said "I'm not angry" and then ignored him and turned away. She would never have acted so angry as she does now.

Feng Guang opened his eyes a crack, "Third Uncle... I don't like drinking."

“Fengguang doesn’t like drinking, so we won’t drink anymore.” He whispered, soothing her emotions.

He knew that Feng Guang didn't drink alcohol. After all, she didn't touch a drop at the Xie family's dinner table. Xie Zhan had no choice but to let her drink a little so that he would have an excuse to leave the palace banquet. He didn't expect her reaction to alcohol to be so strong.

He miscalculated.

"You deliberately made me drink... You're a bad person..." She frowned and sighed uncomfortably.

"Yes, I am a bad person."

Her voice was like the whimpering of a small animal, and coupled with her conflicted little red face, she was both pitiful and incredibly cute. His body, which had finally calmed down, was showing signs of flaring up again.

Xie Zhan has always been proud of his self-control, but for some reason, his body kept losing control today. Speaking of which, when he first saw Feng Guang, he carried her out of the water and when he saw her body, which was still young but already had a shapely figure, he couldn't help but feel a surge of youthful passion.

This is very abnormal.

Fengguang, feeling a headache coming on, rubbed against his chest, whimpered, and fell silent.

Xie Zhan gently patted her back, trying to make her more comfortable, while he could only ignore his own discomfort for the time being.

The air, filled with the fragrance of flowers, was momentarily tranquil, a peaceful and beautiful tranquility.

Just then, Feng Guang suddenly opened her eyes again and said angrily, "There are mosquitoes biting me here! I don't want to stay here!"

On summer nights, especially in places like this where flowers and plants abound, mosquitoes are particularly numerous.

Xie Zhan looked at the small red bump on the back of her hand where she had been bitten, picked her up and stood up again, saying good-naturedly, "There are mosquitoes here, we're not staying here."

She gave a heavy snort, then closed her eyes again to rest, clearly unhappy.

Xie Zhan glanced at the moonlit flower scene, shook his head, and sighed inwardly: This little girl really knows how to ruin the atmosphere.
