Chapter 22: Drunk Throbbing: How does Ruan want to punish me? ...
Lu Jingchuan stood not far from Qin Yuqing. There was no expression on his face, but complex emotions were surging in his eyes.
Intoxicated, Qin Yuqing pointed at the cage behind him and said, "Hehe," and looked at Lu Jingchuan with a grin, proudly saying, "I saved them."
Lu Jingchuan took a step forward. He looked at the cage behind Qin Yuqing, nodded, and said, "They even dared to light the wine lamp."
"Why not? I can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk!" If it was the sober Qin Yuqing, she would definitely be able to hear that Lu Jingchuan was angry, but at this moment it was the hidden drunk version of Qin Yuqing.
Lu Jingchuan also realized that it was impossible to communicate with the drunkard. He turned around and said coldly: "I will take the princess back to the palace."
But there was no sound of footsteps behind him. Lu Jingchuan turned around and saw a woman looking at him angrily.
"I won't!" Qin Yuqing put her hands on her hips, revealing a cuteness amidst her domineering attitude. This is the Qin Yuqing that you don't usually see.
She snorted unhappily, and her face showed, "You'd better coax me, otherwise I won't leave."
For some reason, Lu Jingchuan was suddenly touched by Qin Yuqing's cuteness, and his previous depression was swept away. He was the only one who saw Qin Yuqing in this state, and from now on, he would be the only one who could see her.
Thinking of this, Lu Jingchuan couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and laughed softly.
"What are you laughing at!" Qin Yuqing angrily took a few steps forward. She was not in the right but was very angry. "Don't laugh, or I will punish you! Believe it or not!"
Lu Jingchuan nodded helplessly, his tone softening unconsciously, and coaxed with a gentleness he had never expected: "I won't laugh, come back with me..."
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew the bells in the room, and they made a crisp sound along with Lu Jingchuan's heart.
Qin Yuqing poked the corner of Lu Jingchuan's mouth with her fingers, and raised her hand upwards, like a fox that had succeeded in doing something bad, and said with a smile: "Look, you are smiling!" After that, Qin Yuqing held her face with her hands and looked at Lu Jingchuan with anticipation.
Lu Jingchuan sighed slightly, but the corners of his mouth couldn't move. "How does Ruan want to punish me?"
Qin Yuqing tilted his head, thought seriously for a moment and said, "Then I'll punish you by making you carry me back on your back!"
"Okay, I'll listen to you, A'ruan." Lu Jingchuan squatted down, the smile on his face never leaving. "My princess, please."
Qin Yuqing smiled foolishly and jumped up: "Hey!" She put her thin and frail arms around Lu Jingchuan's neck from behind and said with a grin, "Let's go home!"
Lu Jingchuan was stunned for a moment. He seemed to be unable to believe it and murmured softly, "Go home, yes, go home."
"Let's go, Chuntao is waiting outside." Qin Yuqing rested her head on Lu Jingchuan's shoulder. Perhaps because she had drunk too much, her voice was soft. "Do you still remember the way? If you get lost, I'll punish you by making you carry me home on your back from now on."
Lu Jingchuan chuckled. He almost believed it, but when he smelled the aroma of alcohol, he realized that Qin Yuqing was drunk. She would not say that when she sobered up.
"Remember." Lu Jingchuan took each step steadily. He seemed to be saying to someone, or perhaps to himself, "Remember this too."
Qin Yuqing lay on Lu Jingchuan's back, humming an unknown tune softly. The tune only had a few simple syllables and sounded like a little tune sung by a child.
Lu Jingchuan's eyes slowly turned red. He looked up at Ye Yue, thought for a moment, and asked, "Why does the princess want to become the empress?"
"Well," Qin Yuqing hummed, "guess."
"Do you want to go back?" Lu Jingchuan asked cautiously.
"Yes." Qin Yuqing was truly drunk, her voice filled with nostalgia. "The place I'm going back to is very far away. It's not like here where I have to worry every day, and the transportation is not as blocked as here."
"I can eat a lot of delicious food there, have a lot of fun, and make great friends."
Lu Jingchuan stood there in pain, slowly closed his eyes, and a crystal tear slid down from the corner of his eye. How could he not hear Qin Yuqing's love and nostalgia for that place? It was a very good place.
"But don't worry, I like you very much, so I will take you with me."
Lu Jingchuan suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes full of disbelief, he couldn't believe his ears.
"Don't you remember the way?" Qin Yuqing grumbled dissatisfiedly, pointing in a direction with her right hand, and said proudly, "You still have to rely on me. Let's go, A Ruan will show you the way."
"Thank you, A'ruan." Lu Jingchuan's steps were steady this time, and with a sense of relief, he continued to carry Qin Yuqing away.
Qin Yudan patted Lu Jingchuan's neck with one hand and said with a smile, "Although you sometimes don't tell me your plans in advance, at least you are efficient and make me feel at ease. You are a person who knows the big picture and has a sense of propriety."
As she was speaking, Qin Yuqing suddenly became angry and grabbed Lu Jingchuan's neck, saying, "It's just like the show you found, Wenshan, Chen Yijun and your cheap father, which was clearly intended to exonerate Pu Qinghe and to smoothly stir up the controversy of cheating in the imperial examination. But why didn't you tell me?"
"Aruan, Aruan, I can't breathe." Lu Jingchuan patted Qin Yuqing's hand with one hand.
Qin Yuqing relaxed his strength and continued sadly, "You have to trust me. Believe that as your partner, I can understand your plan and I will stand by you." Qin Yuqing said seriously, "You have to trust me, otherwise I will be very sad."
As the chairman of Hyundai, Qin Yuqing understands how important trust is. Since she has chosen to cooperate with him, trust is the most important foundation for a stable cooperation.
"Okay, Jingchuan knows he was wrong."
Qin Yuqing nodded with satisfaction, but because her hand was resting on Lu Jingchuan's shoulder, it looked like she was rubbing Lu Jingchuan's shoulder.
The sound of humming became softer and softer, and was gradually replaced by long breathing. Lu Jingchuan walked out the door and looked at Chuntao not far away, and shook his head to signal her not to make a sound.
Chuntao nodded and carefully caught the princess. Just as she was about to put her on the carriage, Lu Jingchuan frowned and shook his head. He gently nodded at the carriage, and a more spacious carriage appeared in the grass not far away.
Chuntao was just about to walk over with Qin Yuqing in her arms when Lu Jingchuan silently blocked her way. Chuntao was tactful again and put Qin Yuqing in Lu Jingchuan's arms, then consciously became the coachman with Lu Jiu.
"Xiao Jiujiu, do you think the stars are particularly bright today?"
Lu Jiu looked at the sky carefully and said sullenly after a while, "There are no stars today."
Chun Tao smiled and patted Lu Jiu on the back: "So stupid."
All the seats in the carriage were removed and covered with white plush carpet.
Lu Jingchuan carefully placed Qin Yuqing on the blanket and picked up the blanket beside him to cover Qin Yuqing.
"Sweet dreams, Ruan." Lu Jingchuan looked at Qin Yuqing's rosy lips and gradually approached. The breathing of both parties gradually entangled together, and the air in the car began to become hot.
"I'll take you home." Lu Jingchuan stopped when he was a fist's distance away from Qin Yuqing. There was restraint in his eyes. Then he straightened up and closed his eyes to rest.
Qin Yuqing smacked her lips in her sleep, as if she was dreaming of something delicious.
When Qin Yu woke up the next day, she covered her head and struggled to get up. If she had known earlier, she would not have drunk this wine. It was worthy of being an era with a wine culture. This was too strong.
Qin Yuqing looked at the familiar furnishings around her. She had returned to the palace from Chunshanting.
But how did she get back to the palace?
Qin Yuqing kept trying to recall what happened last night, but she had no memory of it at all. She only vaguely remembered seeing Lu Jingchuan.
She was drunk and had a blackout.
"System, what happened last night?" Qin Yuqing asked the system while covering his head.
【？ 】
[The system does not need to monitor the host 24 hours a day.]
After hearing the system's answer, Qin Yuqing had no choice but to give up.
But she thought that Lu Jingchuan was a gentleman and would definitely not do anything to her. It seemed that she felt relieved to leave her drunken self to Lu Jingchuan.
"Princess, you're awake. Are you feeling unwell?" Chuntao walked in with a bowl of porridge.
"I have a headache." Qin Yuqing finished washing up with Chuntao's help and asked while eating porridge, "What happened last night?"
"Princess, don't you remember?" Chuntao looked at her princess's confused eyes. If the princess knew that she was like a willful child last night, clinging to her master tightly, she would probably chop her to death, right?
"It's the master who has returned with the princess."
Qin Yuqing nodded. As long as it was Lu Jingchuan, it would be fine. She was still very confident in her partners.
"Princess, there are two people outside. They were sent by Chun Shanting. I don't know whether I should accept them, so I let them sit in the courtyard and wait."
Qin Yuqing then remembered that she had saved Alhan's twins by lighting the wine lamp yesterday. She leaned on the chaise longue and said, "Call them in."
Perhaps because they were wild and difficult to tame, the two children's heads and hands were shackled with the same shackles used to imprison prisoners in ancient times, and both of their hands were tied with a very thick hemp rope.
"Looking at it this way, you twins are indeed quite pretty." Qin Yu single-handedly supported his chin, looking at the rope hanging on the ground, "Do you remember what we talked about yesterday?"
The two twins looked at each other, and finally looked at Qin Yuqing in unison. But the difference was that there was still vigilance in their eyes, but they were not very wary of Qin Yuqing personally.
"Oh, yes, introduce yourself. What's your name and where do you live?" Qin Yuqing looked at the girl hiding behind the boy and said, "Little girl, you go first."
"My name is Xiaolu, the Lu in deer." The little deer poked its head out timidly, but its voice was unexpectedly pleasant, like a lark, which made people feel relaxed all over.
"Xiao Wu, number five." Xiao Wu spoke in a depressed tone and didn't like to talk much.
Why do they look so much like the same person? Who is it around Lu Jingchuan?
"Do you remember where you are from in Alhan?" Qin Yuqing asked further. Although she didn't have time to find out in detail, she had seen the general map of this world since she entered the book.
In modern terms, Alkhan refers to the area of Xinjiang and Tibet.
"Arhan." Xiao Wu continued sullenly.
"I know Alhan. I want to ask where Alhan is?" Qin Yuqing rubbed his aching head. Chuntao stepped forward and took the initiative to press on Qin Yuqing.
Xiao Wu and Xiao Lu stood there awkwardly. The twins looked at each other again without saying a word.
"Then let me change the question." Qin Yuqing thought that perhaps because he was still young, he didn't know the specific location. "How old are you this year?"
Just as the words fell, Xiao Wu and Xiao Lu looked at each other again...
"Stop, look at me." Qin Yuqing interrupted the twins' movements, "Who is older?"
"Me." Xiao Wu answered this time.
For the first time, Qin Yuqing felt that asking questions was like squeezing toothpaste. When he was about to let them go, Xiaolu came up tremblingly and said.
"My benefactor." Xiaolu was about to kneel down like the others, but was stopped by Qin Yuqing's eyes. She gritted her teeth and explained, "My brother and I woke up at the foot of a cliff. When we woke up, we didn't remember anything except our nicknames and who we were."
"Do you remember where you fell off the cliff?" Qin Yuqing continued to ask, as it was finally useful information.
"The people who took my brother and me away said that over there is Bizhou."
"Bizhou." Qin Yuqing recalled the information about Bizhou in the original book, but found nothing. It seemed that the appearance and experience of the twins were not in the original book.
"You stay in the side hall first. I'll take you somewhere later." Qin Yuqing waved his hand, and Chuntao took the two twins downstairs.
"It's not good to keep it in the palace like this." Qin Yudan tapped the teacup with one hand and said with finality.
"Send it over there, it's just right."
