Unexpectedly, before the words had even finished, Yao Niang's cheeks flushed red, and her usually bright eyes began to glaze over, revealing an unprecedentedly charming allure.
Qiao Niang was unaware that Yao Niang had never drunk alcohol before. Seeing Yao Niang take a small sip and then drink more, Qiao Niang, knowing Yao Niang's usual prudent manners, assumed she was well-intentioned. Little did she expect Yao Niang's alcohol tolerance to be so low; she was now drunk at Zui Yue Lou.
She was extremely anxious. How to explain things to the Second Master was a minor matter. What she and Bitao, two women, were worried about was how to safely bring the already drunk Yaoniang back to the mansion.
She was anxious and regretful, and for a moment she was at a loss.
Although Yao Niang appeared to be quite drunk, her speech was still clear. She was playing with her fingers with her head down, occasionally muttering a few words. When no one paid attention to her, she looked up and saw that Qiao Niang and Bi Tao both looked anxious.
Yao Niang asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"
She stood up and saw that Qiaoniang's brows were furrowed with worry, so she reached out and cupped Qiaoniang's face, asking curiously, "Sister Qiaoniang, why aren't you smiling?"
Seeing Qiaoniang looking at her with a worried expression, she frowned and pondered, then asked, "Did your second uncle bully you?"
Qiaoniang was taken aback and murmured, "This is truly drunken confusion!"
Bitao, standing to the side, was also very anxious: "Miss has never drunk alcohol before, I didn't know she was such a lightweight!"
Qiaoniang became even more anxious upon hearing this, but she couldn't blame her, and could only sigh repeatedly.
At this moment, Yao Niang had moved closer to Qiao Niang's side. While talking and laughing, she used her finger to push the corner of Qiao Niang's mouth upwards and said, "Smile! You look beautiful when you smile!"
She chuckled, "See, I'm laughing."
As she spoke, she leaned closer to Qiaoniang and said in a boastful tone, "I didn't cry when I found out Qin Yuxiu wanted to break off the engagement!"
Yao Niang hooked her arm around Qiao Niang's triumphantly and leaned closer to her: "Although I don't know why you're frowning, don't be unhappy. You should smile!"
Qiao Niang couldn't possibly laugh! She gestured for Bi Tao to help Yao Niang on either side, and then went downstairs to pay the bill and leave.
