Chapter 35
"Have you hit the nail on the head?" Song Yizhu didn't dare to answer, but Xu Zhiyan became more and more bold.
"No."
"Can you talk to me?" Xu Zhiyan no longer believed that she had nothing to say, but she was indeed curious about what was bothering her.
"Can't."
"Aren't you drunk? Can't you even pretend to be a puppet?" Sure enough, what he said came true. When I have troubles, drinking alcohol will make me feel better. My brain is not working well anymore.
"Dolls are not that beautiful, and I'm not drunk." Song Yizhu glanced at her. She was just a little dizzy, not drunk.
Song Yizhu's words silenced her again.
Is he not drunk yet? He is already drunk and talking nonsense.
Xu Zhiyan touched the tip of his ear, but was unable to speak.
"It's late, you should rest." Seeing that she didn't say anything, Song Yizhu added another sentence, not knowing whether he felt that she was in the way.
"Do you take me for a child?"
"What child?" Xu Zhiyan's word "child" caught her attention. He put down the wine in his hand and looked at her with a frown.
"We need to discipline them." If you're telling people to rest, you should probably tell them to rest early, right? This statement, no matter how you look at it, sounds like telling a child, "It's time to sleep, it's time to eat, it's time to..."
"Is this discipline? Sorry, I don't know." Song Yizhu's mind went blank for two seconds, and he was obviously confused by her words.
"It's okay, so can you tell me about your troubles? I promise to keep it a secret." Xu Zhiyan simply moved closer. The strong scent of peach wood lingered at the tip of his nose, mixed with the aroma of red wine, which was a bit addictive.
"There's nothing to worry about. I just met my mother." She suddenly came closer, and Song Yizhu quickly distanced himself from her, but finally answered her question.
"Are you missing home? You've been living here all the time, don't you want to go back and visit?" You should be happy to see your relatives, right? That's not really a worrying thing. At most, you just miss home, right?
"In no mood."
The two-second pause made Xu Zhiyan a little confused about what she meant. He thought that maybe she was just being too stubborn to say it out loud.
"I will live here until I retire or die." Before she could reply, Song Yizhu added in a flat voice, as if he was talking about something ordinary.
"Will we live here in the future?" After saying this, it was too late for Xu Zhiyan to react.
Next time you speak too quickly, just slap your lips...
Xu Zhiyan closed his eyes, his mind filled with regret.
"No, I mean..." She wanted to explain herself, but Song Yizhu on the opposite side fell silent, seemingly really thinking about this problem.
"If you want to live somewhere else, that's fine. I'll do my best to satisfy you." After thinking for a while, Song Yizhu finally came to the conclusion and looked at her again, not knowing how many times.
Xu Zhiyan avoided her gaze, feeling somewhat relieved that she was already half drunk. His sudden quick words had actually made her think carefully.
Now she just hopes that Song Yizhu will forget everything that happened tonight tomorrow, preferably not remembering anything at all.
"It's so late, aren't you sleepy?" Xu Zhiyan didn't dare to respond to her and could only abruptly change the subject.
"I'm not sleepy. I'm an Alpha, not an Omega." Song Yizhu said this suddenly, as if he deliberately emphasized his gender, making her confused.
"Alpha doesn't affect your sleepiness, nor does it affect your tiredness. You are Alpha, not a machine. Isn't it normal to feel sleepy?" Xu Zhiyan thought about it carefully. Although he didn't understand why she suddenly emphasized this, he continued to talk along with her.
Song Yizhu looked at her in silence, and finally nodded, "I'll go back first, you should also go to bed early."
Xu Zhiyan looked at her actions and became even more confused. What was going on? Was she persuaded?
Only after watching her back disappear behind the wall leading into the room did Xu Zhiyan look away.
Song Yizhu is a really good drinker who can still be so well behaved after drinking. He even knows to close the balcony door and keeps his pace steady. Wow.
With an exclamation of admiration, Xu Zhiyan also returned to his room.
"Alpha doesn't make you sleepy, nor does it make you tired..."
"You are an Alpha, not a machine..."
"...Isn't it normal to feel sleepy?"
Living in his own room, Song Yizhu kept these words echoing in his mind. He even consciously added Xu Zhiyan's face. He didn't emphasize it, but just said it casually, as if it was a matter of course.
She sighed slowly and placed the bottle of wine in her hand on the bedside table. After taking a look at the soft bed, Song Yizhu wiped her body before falling asleep.
On the other side, Xu Zhiyan didn't have such a good ability to fall asleep.
Song Yizhu drank alcohol, but she didn't drink at all. It was precisely because she didn't drink that she suffered from insomnia.
Before, she had always thought Song Yizhu was easygoing, tactful, tolerant, and polite. But after chatting with her tonight, she realized she wasn't what she'd imagined, or rather, the side she showed herself to others was different from the side she showed to herself.
When facing his subordinates, he was serious and well-behaved, with a sense of authority without even getting angry. However, when facing the Seventh Princess, he was more distant, even keeping a stiff distance.
As for her, it was more of indulgence. Of course, this should not be without her shameless begging, no, it should be begging, after all, she had begged her many times.
And tonight, although I had always refused her in-depth communication, I still told her in the end. Although I may not have said it completely, it was enough for people to feel the difference.
It was because she felt treated differently that she couldn't sleep.
She knew clearly that Song Yizhu definitely did not like her, but treated her differently.
People always stop for those who treat them differently. Are they attracted by that special something?
Xu Zhiyan couldn't know.
She knew she was no different from anyone else.
Some people will have a good family background like her, some will be constrained by their parents like her, some will rebel like her, and some will be as lucky as her.
So she couldn't understand whether she was pursuing something special, or whether it was simply because Song Yizhu treated her differently.
She had no way of knowing whether it was because of the person or the event.
Thinking without answers is bound to cause insomnia, so she was forced to stay up all night and finally fell into a deep sleep when daybreak came.
