Liu Zhiyuan thought he was drunk and that what he saw was an illusion, after all, he never thought that Zhao Lanshan would come to the capital.
So he secretly pinched his thigh. But the real pain brought Liu Zhiyuan back to his senses.
“Young Master Liu, you really drank that much wine in broad daylight.”
As always, Zhao Lanshan spoke in a gentle manner.
She looked at Liu Zhiyuan with concern, noticing that his face had become even thinner in just a few days.
What on earth could have gotten him so upset that he'd be drunk like this in broad daylight...?
Zhao Lanshan's every emotion was revealed in her eyes, which made Liu Zhiyuan momentarily dazed. He hadn't expected that there would be a woman who cared about him so much.

"Young Master Liu, please wait!"
Speaking loudly in public, especially to a man, Zhao Lanshan knew it was all against etiquette, but today she gritted her teeth and stomped her foot, determined to go for it.
"I wonder where Young Master Liu is studying? I'd like to pay him a visit sometime."
"It's really rare to run into an old friend in such a big city like Beijing."
