Chapter 20: Human Warmth, a Bright Tomorrow, I'll Give You!



The brightly lit, luxurious and spacious restaurant

Everyone watched as Chu Liyue comforted and coaxed Xiao Wujie as if no one else was around, giving the impression of a foolish emperor in ancient times who doted on his concubine excessively.

Everyone thought to themselves:

I'm full! I'm really full! Please stop feeding me!

Seeing this scene, even though he was extremely shrewd, Chu Yichen's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot, and a few veins on his forehead throbbed uncontrollably.

After a long while, Xiao Wujie gently lifted his head from Chu Liyue's fragrant shoulder. At this moment, his eyes were slightly red and moist.

God knows how long he held it in before he managed to squeeze out a little saline solution.

Those green tea guys who can cry on cue are so damn good at it!

Everyone: Finally, we've managed to appease her! This little green tea b*tch is really damn hard to deal with!

Chu Liyue reached out her finger and gently brushed the corner of his eye, then lightly ruffled his hair before embracing him, seemingly with no intention of letting him get down.

Only then did Xiao Wujie turn his bright, watery gaze to Chu Yichen, and say in a hoarse voice:

"Brother Yichen, do you really want me to drink this glass of wine?"

Chu Yichen was so startled by his sudden address and tone that he got goosebumps and was speechless for a moment.

Before Chu Yichen and Chu Liyue could react, Xiao Wujie picked up the wine glass that Chu Liyue had placed on the table, sat in Chu Liyue's lap, raised the glass to Chu Yichen from a distance, and drank it all in one gulp.

Then she rested her head on Chu Liyue's shoulder and gave Chu Yichen a friendly smile from a perspective that only Chu Nanfeng and Chu Yichen could see.

Your challenge, I accept!

Chu Nanfeng: ...I've seen so much I've never seen before tonight, I don't even know what to say anymore...

Chu Liyue was furious when she saw him drinking the wine without any regard for the consequences.

After all, Xiao Wujie's body doesn't have much resistance to alcohol, and his physical condition is not suitable for drinking.

Not wanting to reprimand him in front of others, she could only lightly tap his head to vent her anger.

Ignoring the stunned gazes of the crowd, he coldly picked up Xiao Wujie and carried him out of the restaurant.

Everyone: This is too much...

Chu Yichen, still holding a wine glass in his hand, stood under the light, his expression so complex it defied description.

The knuckles of the fingers gripping the wine glass were slightly white from excessive force.

Chu Yuntian, who was in the main seat, coughed a few times and gestured for everyone to disperse.

An awkward and strange family dinner came to an end!

Luxury sports cars speeding on the road

In the back seat of the car, Chu Liyue's fair face held a fierce expression, radiating a cold aura as she stared at Xiao Wujie sitting beside her.

His fair and handsome face was covered with a thin blush, clearly a sign of being slightly tipsy.

Chu Liyue was still very angry about his disobedience and drinking.

Xiao Wujie, who usually doesn't drink alcohol and is in poor health, was indeed not very resistant to alcohol. He was already showing signs of drunkenness after only half a glass of red wine.

She was worried that he couldn't hold his liquor, so she took him away early, and things turned out exactly as she expected.

Meeting her icy gaze, Xiao Wujie looked at her with a gentle yet dreamy look, like a deer lost in the deep mountains.

It was this look that made Chu Liyue's heart tremble. This look immediately reminded her of the look in Xiao Wujie's eyes in her dream when he coughed up blood and weakly cried out, "Sister, I can't wait for you anymore."

That look was both gentle and dreamy, but it was tinged with helplessness and despair.

That dream was absolutely terrifying!

Even though she hadn't had that dream again in the few days since Xiao Wujie came to the capital, she still felt a tremor in her heart whenever she thought about it.

He seemed genuinely drunk; usually adept at reading people, he now wore a blank expression, as if he were completely oblivious to her cold displeasure.

Perhaps it was the alcohol affecting his system that made him feel unwell.

His face was flushed, and he scratched his hair a few times in a slightly agitated manner, then began to tug at his tie haphazardly.

Recalling the dream and seeing him like this, Chu Liyue's anger subsided, and the cold and tough aura around her also dissipated considerably.

As if he could precisely detect her changes, Xiao Wujie began to move closer to her, continuing to loosen his tie as he did so.

Chu Liyue sighed with a hint of helplessness; he really had her completely under his control.

She immediately pulled him into her arms, placed his hands, which were haphazardly tugging at his tie, on her long, black-stockinged legs, and then patiently helped him untangle the mess he had made of his tie.

She quickly untied her tie and tossed it aside. Feeling her neck freed, Xiao Wujie half-closed her eyes and unbuttoned the top three buttons of her shirt, instantly revealing her alluring collarbone and pale chest.

Perhaps feeling much more comfortable, he wrapped his arms around Chu Liyue's slender, boneless waist, gently rubbing his face against her shoulder. His warm breath, carrying the scent of red wine, touched her long, swan-like neck, causing it to blush.

Chu Liyue was momentarily limp from his ministrations, a tingling sensation spreading throughout her body.

A slight blush appeared on her fair face. Looking at the alluring sight of the person in her arms with a flushed face and half-exposed chest, she couldn't help but grit her teeth and curse inwardly as a little vixen!

She endured the waves of tingling sensations emanating from her body and pulled Xiao Wujie off her.

Then she spread his curled-up legs, letting his lower body lie flat on the back seat of the car, while she held his upper body in her arms.

She held Xiao Wujie's head with one hand and gently massaged his chest with the other, helping him relieve some of the discomfort caused by the alcohol.
