Jiang Yimian looked at the other person's somewhat silly smiling face and couldn't help but laugh as well. Her tone softened unconsciously, "Aci, shall we go downstairs? It's cold here."
Lu Cijian frowned, then quickly nodded seriously, "Mianmian is cold, let's go downstairs."
As he spoke, he immediately stood up, grabbed Jiang Yimian, and flew directly into the courtyard.
The two landed steadily, but Lu Cijian did not let go of the person in his arms. He stubbornly pulled the person into the house.
Jiang Yimian couldn't break free for a moment, so she decided to see what the drunkard was up to and followed him inside.
As soon as they entered the house, Lu Cijian immediately let go of her and stood obediently to the side, doing nothing. Only rustling sounds could be heard.
Jiang Yimian didn't pay any attention. She found a tinderbox and lit the candles in the room. When she turned around, she saw Lu Cijian loosen his belt and neatly take off his outer clothes.
Because the act of undressing was too rough, the neckline of the inner garment was wide open, revealing the bronze skin underneath.
His muscular chest was thus exposed before her eyes.
Jiang Yimian was startled. "Hey, what are you doing? Put your clothes on quickly."
If someone saw this, she would be wrongly accused to death. It was all the person in front of her who initiated it; she didn't do anything.
She now strongly suspects that the guy in front of her is doing this on purpose.
Lu Cijian looked at her blankly, holding the clothes, and asked in confusion, "Mianmian is cold, put on some clothes."
As he spoke, he stepped forward and draped the clothes he was holding over Jiang Yimian's shoulders.
Seeing that the other person had put on his clothes, Lu Cijian nodded in satisfaction, walked straight to the bed, took off his shoes, and got into bed. "Mianmian, go to sleep."
Jiang Yimian stared at the person who had already lain down on the bed before she came to her senses. She glanced at her clothes and felt helpless. She hadn't expected Lu Cijian to be like this when he was drunk.
Like a naive child.
She thought this guy...
With a helpless smile, Jiang Yimian took off the clothes she was wearing and placed them on the screen beside her, just as she was about to leave.
Lu Cijian grabbed her arm and said earnestly, "Go to sleep. It's dark, we can't go out."
Jiang Yimian was a little stunned. Before she could come to her senses, Lu Cijian pressed her down onto the bed.
The distance between the two suddenly closed, so close that Jiang Yimian could smell Lu Cijian's refreshing scent, mixed with a faint hint of alcohol.
Lu Cijian seemed startled by the close proximity of the two, momentarily at a loss for what to do. His gaze fell on the other's bright red and full lips, and his Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily.
Just as Jiang Yimian was about to push the person away, her lips were suddenly covered by two cool lips, which startled her.
Lu Cijian opened his mouth and gently bit her lips, murmuring, "Strawberry, sweet."
Seeing that the other party seemed dissatisfied with the light nibbling and slightly increased the force, Jiang Yimian struck the back of the other party's neck with a single palm strike.
In an instant, the person who was still biting her lips tilted his head to the side and buried his face in her neck, fainting. His warm breath sprayed on her earlobe, leaving her somewhat stunned.
Jiang Yimian reached out and touched the faint touch on her lips, feeling her heart beat faster.
Unfortunately, the person who started this was already unconscious. She was speechless and angry, and pushed away the person who was pressing down on her.
If it weren't for the fact that this guy was genuinely drunk, she would definitely have punched him again, what a strawberry.
*
The next day, when Lu Cijian woke up, he felt a splitting headache, especially in the back of his neck, which felt like he had been punched hard.
Even the slightest movement of my neck aggravates the wound; I have no idea where I bumped it.
He probably fell off the roof last night.
Otherwise, why would it hurt so much?
He walked out of the house full of doubts, his memory stuck on the time he drank with Jiang Yimian.
My memory after drinking is completely blank.
He thought for a while but couldn't remember what happened last night. He quickly washed up before going to the Jiang family's house.
As soon as Jiang Yimian came out of the house, she saw Lu Cijian frowning and clutching his neck, looking like he was in a lot of pain. She felt a little guilty and unconsciously recalled what happened last night.
In that moment of desperation, she used all her strength without holding back at all; the other person's neck must have already swelled up.
She coughed lightly, but quickly recovered and said calmly, "One drink and you're done. Why try to drink like others?"
Lu Cijian was taken aback, a rare hint of embarrassment appearing on his face. After a while, he said softly, "I'm sorry, I troubled you last night."
Although he couldn't remember the specifics of what happened, he could imagine that it must have taken a lot of effort for Mianmian to get him down from the roof by herself.
Jiang Yimian snorted softly. Seeing that the other party really didn't remember what happened last night, she breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time found it funny. The contrast between this person's drunken self and his appearance was quite large.
She was as obedient as a child, as if the other person would agree with whatever she said.
She should have teased Lu Cijian when he was drunk yesterday.
Just then, Lu Cijian asked hesitantly, "I didn't do anything last night, did I?"
He strongly suspected that the injury on the back of his neck was caused by being beaten; if he had really fallen, why didn't the other parts of his neck hurt?
Did he do something yesterday that upset Mianmian?
Jiang Yimian was startled, suddenly recalling the feeling of their lips touching last night. Her gaze inadvertently fell on the other person's thin lips, and the cool, soft touch seemed to sweep over her again.
Her eyes flickered, and she said in a serious tone, "You accidentally hit the back of your head against the wall. It must have been quite a fall. Let's put some medicine on it."
As he spoke, he casually tossed a small porcelain bottle to the other person.
Lu Cijian responded but didn't say anything more, though his gaze fell on Jiang Yimian with suspicion in his eyes.
As the two were locked in a stalemate, they heard a familiar voice from outside the door, "Yimian, are you there?"
Lu Cijian frowned.
Jiang Yimian felt relieved and hurriedly left the courtyard, where she immediately saw the anxious Granny Gui beside Lin Yan'an.
Upon seeing her, the other person's expression brightened, and he quickly stepped forward, taking her hand and saying, "Miss Jiang, my young lady's condition has worsened for some reason. Please help me and come with me to take a look."
She was so worried that the girl would faint again that she came directly to the Jiang family.
Jiang Yimian nodded. Seeing that the anxiety on the other person's face seemed genuine, she didn't ask how the two of them got together. Instead, she said to Lu Cijian, who had followed her out, "I have something to do. Tell my mother."
Lu Cijian hummed in agreement and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of things at home."
The carriage quickly left Qingshi Village and headed towards Qinghe Town. Finally, it turned onto a mountain road and traveled for almost half an hour before stopping in front of the Hot Spring Resort.
As soon as Granny Gui got off the carriage, she led Jiang Yimian and the other person directly into the manor.
After passing through two long corridors, we entered a quiet courtyard.
