Qiao Jingjing just didn't like this nickname.
Sun Ce thought his way of doing things was very similar to his own. He was the bravest in battle and the most straightforward and unrestrained in life, but he always managed to make a mistake. He was an exasperating yet lovable third brother.
"You know you were wrong? Will you still drink like this in the future?"
Sun Yi shook his head.
Sun Ce said, "Kneel properly until dawn, then we'll talk."
Then, Sun Ce grabbed Qiao Jingjing with one hand and hoisted her onto his shoulder.
This startled Qiao Jingjing so much that she screamed.
"What are you doing? Sun Ce, put me down."
In her haste, Qiao Jingjing actually called out Wu Hou's honorable name.
Sun Quan listened to everything from the doorway.
After some private consideration, he decided that what happened next was inappropriate for children, so he and his older brother decided to stop reading tonight.
My older brother has a more important book to read carefully.
The eldest brother is about to accumulate a richer, more romantic, and more profound memory in his life.
Sun Ce carried Qiao Jingjing to his bedroom.
The bedroom was brightly lit by an oil lamp.
The scroll that Sun Ce had just read was slightly messy.
Qiao Jingjing was then put down.
She awkwardly clung to the doorway.
She glanced at Sun Ce, then at her toes.
She didn't drink a drop of alcohol tonight.
Her back was clung to the door, wishing she could just walk out.
Sun Ce simply stared intently at her.
Qiao Jingjing pointed to the door and said, "It's getting late... I haven't finished packing my things at home yet. I... I'll go back to my house now and pack my things."
Sun Ce didn't move, just stared at Qiao Jingjing.
Qiao Jingjing thought about it for a moment, considering her current predicament.
"Tonight, your third brother came to my house for drinks. He drank too much, so don't take it seriously."
Did Qiao Jingjing really need to say that?
He certainly didn't take Sun Yi seriously.
If it weren't for the fact that this was his own younger brother, and if it weren't for the fact that this younger brother was still conscious and hadn't made any mistakes, he would have been given eighty lashes long ago, enough to render him unable to take care of himself.
Sun Ce looked at Qiao Jingjing, waiting to see what she would say next.
Qiao Jingjing remained silent.
She opened the door with one hand, trying to run outside.
The atmosphere was too awkward; she simply couldn't handle it.
But as soon as the door is opened...
Lu Meng and Ling Tong stood outside the door.
Lu Meng even reached out to block her.
Qiao Jingjing was horrified.
Didn't Lü Meng always shield her from others in the past?
It's only been a few days!
With Lü Meng blocking her way, Qiao Jingjing turned around dejectedly and went inside.
Lu Meng was very considerate and closed the door behind him.
Lu Meng's voice could still be heard outside:
“Miss Qiao, Ling Tong and I will be on guard tonight, so you can rest assured.”
