When Shulan woke up, she felt like her head was going to split open.
He clutched his head and groaned, "Ugh~~~"
Hearing the sound, He Fengmian walked in from outside, his voice clearly tinged with amusement: "You're awake."
Shulan, still clutching her head, asked, "What's wrong with me?"
He Fengmian raised an eyebrow: "Don't you remember?"
Shulan paused, and her memories began to slowly resurface.
She recalled eating mutton yesterday, then playing pitch-pot, playing cards... but she couldn't remember what happened after that; she had clearly blacked out.
So she was really drunk?
I couldn't help but feel a jolt.
She has a high alcohol tolerance, but her behavior when drunk is poor.
She knew she had a bad drinking habit because of her eighteenth birthday party.
Because they were having too much fun, they drank heavily with their classmates and friends, and ended up getting drunk.
I heard that after I got drunk, I started laughing and joking around, and I was really bold.
Then she started crying, crying so hard she could barely breathe, almost fainting, while still nestled in her mother's arms and crying.
Everyone panicked.
They thought they had suffered some terrible injustice.
Even after she regained her senses, her mother cautiously asked, "Did you break up with your boyfriend?"
Shulan was still confused at the time. She hadn't even been in a relationship, so how could she have lost someone?
Her father also said with concern, "Daughter, if anything makes you unhappy, tell your parents."
There's no hurdle in this world that can't be overcome. No matter what happens, you have your parents and family.
Shulan looked completely bewildered by what they were saying: "Huh?"
Then, upon learning that she had cried in her mother's arms while drunk, she realized what had happened and was left both amused and exasperated.
After a long explanation, her parents finally believed that she had not experienced any setbacks, had not been in a relationship, and had not experienced a breakup.
There was nothing wrong; it was just that he got drunk and started acting crazy.
parents:"……"
Then, after much difficulty, I finally managed to explain it to my parents.
Grandpa, my eldest and second uncles, and my third and fifth aunts all came to care for me.
She kept explaining, "Don't worry, I'm really not heartbroken, my studies are going well, and I haven't been bullied. My teachers, classmates, and friends are all very kind to me."
Everyone was speechless when they learned that she was crying so sadly and out of control simply because she couldn't handle alcohol.
He also advised her, "We can drink together in the future, but don't get drunk... otherwise it will be too embarrassing."
Shulan: "..."
Because of this, she was laughed at by her friends and classmates for a long time.
Thinking about her bizarre drinking habits, Shulan felt quite uncomfortable.
I'm afraid I'll forget that even though I can hold my liquor, this body isn't my own.
Xie Shulan stayed in the Xie residence year-round and never drank alcohol, so she had no capacity for alcohol.
Shulan thought to herself, "Drinking really does lead to trouble."
Looking at He Fengmian without his beard, you could clearly see his expression.
He asked cautiously, "General, I haven't done anything inappropriate."
He swallowed hard: "Or...something weird?"
Crying and making a scene is one thing, but don't reveal everything about how you came to be a time traveler.
It's understandable that she's a daughter of the Xie family, but if she were to be resurrected in another's body, that would be a completely different matter.
Let alone in ancient times, such a person would have been burned to death; even in modern times, they would have been captured and dissected.
Thinking about this, she became even more anxious.
I secretly glanced at the bearded man, wanting to see his expression and reaction.
He Fengmian was unaware of her inner struggle and fear, only thinking that she was shy because she was afraid of losing her composure, which he found somewhat amusing.
He didn't reveal his true feelings, but deliberately asked, "Dr. Shu, what do you consider inappropriate?"
He paused for a moment, then deliberately asked, "What strange words are you talking about again?"
Shulan, who was initially worried, felt somewhat relieved after hearing these words and seeing no fear, disgust, or murderous intent in the eyes of the bearded man who was staring intently at her.
Thinking to himself, if the bearded man knew that he wasn't the real Xie family woman, but a soul that had somehow crossed over from somewhere, he wouldn't be so calm.
Yesterday, I guess I was just drunk and didn't say anything strange.
Only then did he secretly relax and deliberately say, "Hehe, I dreamt last night that I was crying, and I thought I was just being wronged in my dream."
After she finished speaking, she carefully observed his expression.
After noticing that there was nothing unusual about his expression, he knew he had made the right bet.
Only then could I be sure. I thought to myself that drinking really does lead to trouble, and I must never drink again in the future.
I started washing up and even drank a bowl of hangover soup, which relieved my headache. Then I went to eat breakfast.
Surprisingly, it wasn't barbecue, but porridge and steamed buns, which soothed her upset stomach.
What surprised her even more was that while everyone was hunting, the bearded man led her to the hot springs.
There, a small hot spring was surrounded by a large curtain, preventing people from peeking in while also avoiding a stuffy feeling.
Shulan was truly surprised that the bearded man was so thoughtful.
He Fengmian looked around and said, "You stay here and soak in the water. I'll keep watch for you from a distance. Call me if you need anything."
After saying that, he strode away.
Shulan said to his retreating figure, "Thank you."
He Fengmian paused for a moment, hummed in response, and then left.
With the bearded man guarding her, she felt completely at ease.
After entering the curtained area, I discovered not only a brand-new set of clothes, but also bath soap, which was used by wealthy families for bathing and washing their hair. It was made by a nanny from the General's Mansion who was skilled at making these things, and it made you smell fragrant after bathing.
