Chapter 183 I Saw Someone Alive

As soon as Xiao Xuanjin got home, he took off his coat, looked at the empty living room, and asked Aunt Niu, "Where is she?"

"Master, the mistress went out with her friends and left in the afternoon."

"friend?"

"Well, she's pretty, and seems to be an old acquaintance of the young lady."

"Okay, I understand."

Xiao Xuanjin loosened his cufflinks, took out his cell phone and called Su Mi.

It rang a few times before I picked up. The ambient noise was very loud, with singing, talking, and clinking glasses interweaving to create a lively scene.

You can tell it's a bar as soon as you hear it.

"Hello? Who is this?" Her voice was obviously drunk and sticky, and she didn't even know who was calling.

"Where?"

His voice was cold and solemn as always, and Su Mi's dazed mind suddenly became much clearer.

"I'm... at the bar."

"Which one?"

"Hemu."

"Wait, I'll pick you up."

After saying that, Xiao Xuanjin hung up the phone and went out.

When he arrived at the bar and walked to the booth, he saw two women who were already drunk.

Fang Yutong had fallen asleep on her stomach.

Su Mi was still a little conscious, lying on the table with her back to him. The beautiful thing was that she was actually flipping through the photo album on her mobile phone, and the photos in it were of him, taken when they got married. She looked at them very seriously.

Xiao Xuanjin went over and sat next to her, his deep brows and eyes showing tenderness, and deliberately asked, "What are you looking at?"

"Look at my husband." She responded softly, and then she was surprised to find a man next to her.

She turned her head and looked at him. Her misty almond eyes froze for a few seconds after she saw him. She opened her pink lips and asked, "Husband?"

"Well, are you surprised?"

She held up her phone and compared the photo with the living person in front of her. This was a very adorable gesture, and she whispered, "I actually saw a living person."

After hearing this, Xiao Xuanjin's face was full of black lines, and he grabbed her arm, "Have I ever died?"

But the other party was obviously too drunk and couldn't answer his question normally, "You are finally here..."

After saying that, she tilted her head and leaned it on his shoulder, found a comfortable position, closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Xiao Xuanjin touched her head, raised his eyelids and glanced at Fang Yutong across from him, took out his phone, and called He Fei, "Come and pick someone up."

After a while He Fei came over and was stunned when he saw Fang Yutong, but did not come forward.

He glanced at the empty wine bottle on the table, "Brother Xiao, what do you want me to do? She and I..."

Xiao Xuanjin didn't say on the phone just now that he was asked to pick up Fang Yutong.

Xiao Xuanjin glanced at him and said, "I've handed the person over to you. I don't have time to take care of him."

After saying that, he picked up the person in his arms and walked away without caring about He Fei's reaction.

After they walked out of the bar, Xiao Xuanjin wanted to put the man into the parked Maybach car, but the drunkard woke up, put his hand on the car door, and resisted, "I don't want to get in the car."

"Why?" Xiao Xuanjin stared at her blushing face and asked slowly.

"Dizzy..."

"You mean walk back?"

Su Mi felt very comfortable in the cool wind. As soon as she got out of his arms and stood up, she felt top-heavy and could only hold the man's arm as a stabilizer.

He bent his arms and let her support him.

She looked around, her delicate skin glistening in the night light. She pointed in a certain direction with a naive look on her face, "I want to go there."

Xiao Xuanjin looked along the direction of her slender fingers. There was a river over there, but because of the weather, it was frozen and there was nothing to see.

"You want to go?"

"Yeah." She nodded hurriedly, her almond-shaped eyes as harmless as a elk's, and she looked particularly longing for the well-behaved look.

Xiao Xuanjin raised his hand and hooked her nose, sighed, and said unhappily, "It's really annoying."

"Let's go."

After saying that, he took her hand and prepared to go towards the river.

I took a step forward, but found that I couldn't pull it. I turned around and saw her standing there, with a sly look in her eyes and a voice full of coquettishness, like a fox who wanted to get more. "Carry me on your back."

Xiao Xuanjin poked his cheek with the tip of his tongue, and a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Okay, if you want me to carry you, come and kiss me."

She walked over obediently, her eyes clear and bright, like a student waiting for instructions from the instructor, "Where do you want to kiss?"

Xiao Xuanjin pointed to the spot on his forehead.

As expected, Su Mi stood on tiptoe and prepared to kiss him, but Xiao Xuanjin tilted his head upwards a little, using his height advantage to prevent her from reaching him.

The drunk person frowned and jumped up and down. He tried many times but failed to get a kiss, and he was already a little dissatisfied.

She could only hook her arm around his neck and press him down, still scolding him in a soft voice, "Don't move."

Xiao Xuanjin was stunned for a moment, and then she succeeded. The soft touch stayed on his forehead for a few seconds.

She smiled as she wished, a light and sweet laugh flowing from her mouth.

Her almond-shaped eyes were filled with joy, her bright red lips were charming and seductive, and her gorgeous facial features instantly captivated people's hearts.

Xiao Xuanjin's eyes darkened, and when she was about to withdraw her arms, he hugged her waist, pulled her closer, lowered his head and kissed her lips, exploring deeply.

After the kiss, Su Mi leaned on his shoulder, panting. He was exhausted after all, so he stopped making a fuss.

Xiao Xuanjin said in a hoarse voice, "Do you still want me to carry you?"

All I could hear was her soft and delicate voice, "Yes."

"Okay, I'll carry you."

Xiao Xuanjin let her go, bent down and squatted in front of her, "Come up."

Su Mi lay on top of him with a triumphant smile on his face.

Xiao Xuanjin hooked her legs with his big hands, lifted her up and headed towards the river.

He was very strong and walked steadily with her on his back. Su Mi's head was against his. The alcohol seemed to be slowly being broken down by his body. He regained some consciousness, but was not fully awake yet.

She suddenly spoke, "Xiao Xuanjin..."

"Huh? What did you call me?!"

Su Mi immediately changed her tone and said with a smile, "Husband."

"That's more like it."

Su Mi glanced at the uneven buildings on the river in the distance. The lights reflected a blurry halo on the quiet river surface, sparkling.

As she watched, memories of the day began to stir up trouble in her mind.

She couldn't help but ask, "Honey, have you been to Lotus Creek before?"

Xiao Xuanjin paused and replied, "Yeah."

"Why?"

"Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

Just when they reached the river, Xiao Xuanjin put her down, and the two of them leaned on the railing and looked down.

Su Mi turned around and glanced at his cold profile, and said boldly under the influence of alcohol, "You seem to have never asked me why I concealed my identity back then."

In fact, until now, she still doesn't understand why his attitude changed.

I still remember that on our wedding night he looked determined to fight to the death. He had no intention of living a good life and was only thinking about revenge.

I don't know why, but he suddenly changed his attitude.

He was willing to accept her compensation, and became better and better to her, more and more tolerant, and even returned to the way he was before.

But she remembered that she had not explained anything. How could he suddenly be willing to let go of the past and let bygones be bygones?
