As darkness fell, a campfire was lit.
The flickering flames illuminated the surrounding darkness, adding warmth and liveliness to the tranquil beach.
The three of them enjoyed the food they had painstakingly gathered while chatting loudly around the campfire.
Xiao Lan excitedly recounted various amusing anecdotes from her daily life, gesturing animatedly with a happy smile on her face.
Yuzuru listened with a smile, occasionally interjecting a few words, which drew laughter from the mother and daughter. Eri Kisaki looked at her daughter and son-in-law tenderly, her eyes full of satisfaction.
"We should go out and play like this more often in the future," Xiaolan said.
“Sure, you can do it anytime you want,” Yuzuru replied.
"Mom wants to come too!" Ran said sweetly, pulling on Eri's hand.
“Okay, whatever you say.” Eri Kisaki nodded with a smile, her gaze unconsciously drifting towards the bright moon slowly rising over the sea.
She was looking at it so intently that she suddenly asked, "Yuzuru, do you have any wine?"
"Auntie wants a drink..."
Before Yuu Nan could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Ran.
"No, Mom can't drink alcohol!"
Xiao Lan shook her head vigorously, her expression resolute.
She always felt that her mother didn't want to come home because her father drank every day, and in her young heart, she had a deep aversion to drinking.
Therefore, she did not want Eri Kisaki to drink as well.
"No, I won't drink."
Seeing Ran's protest, Eri, who dotes on her daughter, had no choice but to abandon her idea.
She didn't really want to drink, but seeing her daughter and son-in-law so sweet and loving, she couldn't help but feel emotional and wanted to express herself, so she wanted to use alcohol to soothe her feelings.
“Actually, there are other ways to experience the feeling of alcohol even if you don’t drink it,” Yu Shengnan said, his voice particularly clear amidst the crackling of the campfire.
"What method?"
The mother and daughter looked over curiously.
"Ta-da, the drunken bottle cap."
Yuzuru opened his hand, revealing a red bottle cap in his palm with a small hole in the center.
Ai loves the items she's been strengthening at home these past few days the most.
After all, Mingmei usually watches over her and doesn't allow her to drink alcohol at all. With this prop, she can drink openly.
"Just screw the cap on, and any beverage or juice will taste like alcohol, but it won't harm your health." He explained as he picked up a bottle of beverage from the table and screwed the cap on.
Then, Yuzuru took the cup in front of Eri Kisaki and, under the unconvinced gazes of the two, slowly poured the drink from the bottle into the cup.
"Try it, Aunt Eri."
Eri Kisaki picked up her cup and took a small sip.
Instantly, her eyes lit up.
"This tastes really like alcohol, but without the unpleasant feeling of alcohol. It's very pleasant to drink," Eri Kisaki said with a mix of surprise and disbelief.
Xiao Lan curiously leaned over and asked, "Mom, is it really that amazing? I want to try it too."
Yu Sheng Nan smiled and poured Xiao Lan a glass as well: "Don't drink too much."
Xiaolan took a small sip, smacked her lips, and said, "Hmm, not bad."
As Yuzuru poured himself a drink, he reminded her, "Although it's not harmful, drinking too much of it will still make you drunk, just like alcohol. Aunt Eri, Ran, please drink less."
The day before yesterday, Ai drank too much. In the middle of the night, she was having a passionate encounter with her maid when Ai suddenly pushed open the door and walked in, burying herself under the covers, which startled Akemi.
In the end, it was Yuzuru who reacted quickly, carrying the dazed Ai to the head of the bed, and supporting Akemi's slender waist, which was stiff from the stimulation, and then doing a "sister-in-the-eyes" thing.
The two sisters, after waking up the next day, were so shy that they didn't dare to speak all day.
Even though Ai was drunk, she still subconsciously knew to snatch food, which stunned Akemi!
"Huh? Didn't you two hear what I said?"
After Yuzuru finished speaking and poured the drinks, he looked up and saw Ran and Eri staring at him with flushed faces. Their drinks were completely empty.
"No, Yuzuru. It's not uncommon for us to get together, so it's okay to drink a little more," Eri Kisaki said, slightly tipsy.
"Yeah, Nan, eating barbecue without drinking is like not eating barbecue at all!" Xiao Lan said, also drunk, her attitude completely changed, having already forgotten that she was the one who had firmly forbidden her from drinking just moments before.
"Auntie, this won't harm your health, but drinking too much will still make you drunk," Yu Shengnan reminded her again.
Eri Kisaki waved her hand dismissively: "Oh, it's rare to be this happy, pour us some more."
A hint of emotion flickered in her eyes; she wasn't simply drinking, she was bidding farewell to the past.
All those past joys and sorrows will gradually settle in these cups of "wine".
Yuzuru smiled helplessly, unable to refuse the mother and daughter, so he poured them some more.
“That’s more like it.” Eri Kisaki smiled, picked up her cup, and took another big gulp.
After finishing another cup, Ran and Eri's faces flushed even more, and their eyes became somewhat glazed.
Looking at their drunken state, Yu Shengnan took a sip of his drink and said quietly, "You two have such a low alcohol tolerance, yet you still want to drink. If you keep drinking, neither of you will be able to stand up, and you won't be able to go home."
"It's alright, Nan is here!"
Ran raised her glass with great enthusiasm, clinked it with Eri's, and then the two of them downed their drinks without hesitation, their movements swift and decisive.
The mother and daughter were completely immersed in the pleasure brought by this wonderful "wine" and paid no attention to what Yuzuru Nan was saying.
To prevent Yuzuru from running away, the two of them squeezed him in the middle, each holding one of his arms tightly.
"Drink, Nan, let's drink together!" Xiao Lan shouted loudly, determined to continue drinking.
“Yes, Yuzuru, let’s drink until we drop tonight!” Eri Kisaki chimed in, her voice languid yet possessing a unique charm.
"Is it possible that you two are already drunk?"
Yuzuru looked at Eri Kisaki on his left with amusement.
Her large, intelligent eyes were now filled with a dreamy look, as if veiled by a thin layer of mist.
Her usually cold and stern face was now flushed, her delicate appearance a stark contrast to her usual dignified demeanor.
If you didn't know, you wouldn't believe that the drunken beauty in front of you is the famous and invincible Queen Eri in the legal world.
Her beauty was even more captivating at this moment, making people fall in love with her.
Seeing that his attempts to persuade her had failed, Yuzuru, feeling the soft touch on his arm, said at the opportune moment:
"Then I'll have no choice but to risk my life to accompany Auntie!" Auntie Eri, bonus chapter today!
