The day before the wedding, Ye Jianming spent his time in a bar, getting completely drunk.
The driver called the old lady of the Ye family to report the situation. The old lady transferred some money to the driver and told him to let Ye Jianming have his way and settle the bill in the end.
Ye Jianming drank until the wee hours of the morning, then insisted on going to Yushui Bay.
He made a scene for a while, and the driver had no choice but to take him there.
Ye Jianming called Rong Yan from his car. His phone vibrated for a while before Rong Yan answered.
As soon as the call connected, Ye Jianming kept repeating: Sister, I'm at your door, I'm thirsty.
The man's speech was unclear, but Rong Yan could tell it was indeed Ye Jianming's voice.
The driver, standing nearby, advised, "Young master, it's so late, you're disturbing other people's rest."
"Shh! I'm thirsty, I want some water." Ye Jianming ignored the driver's advice and continued to whine to Rong Yan, "Sister, I'm at the door, it's a bit cold."
Fu Jingsheng turned over and saw Rong Yan sitting down. He asked, "Is it dawn yet?"
"No, Ye Jianming called and said he was at the door, and seemed to have drunk too much."
The man sat up: "Let's go down and take a look."
The two of them got dressed and went downstairs. They saw Ye Jianming's car parked across the gate. He was leaning against the car window, holding his phone and muttering to himself.
The lights in the courtyard came on, and Ye Jianming saw Rong Yan and smiled, "Sister, brother-in-law."
In the neighboring courtyard, Gu Hannian gets up earlier than the maids every day. Unexpectedly, she saw that her sister's house also had its lights on. Curious, she came over and found Ye Jianming at the door.
The man, supported by the driver and Fu Jingsheng, scraped his legs across the ground as he entered the house.
Rongyan asked her aunt to prepare a hangover soup.
"Ye Jianming, why are you drinking so early in the morning?" Gu Hannian said to Ye Jianming while wiping his face with a washcloth.
"Even I, who am not well-educated, know that wine is not as good as porridge. I'll go and cook you some porridge. Just wait here." Gu Hannian busied herself with chores.
Fu Jingsheng and Rong Yan sat down next to each other, exchanged a glance, and whispered, "There's potential."
Fearing that Ye Jianming would get impatient, Gu Hannian put all the ingredients into the pot, asked the aunt to keep an eye on the heat, and then ran over to keep him company.
Rong Yan pulled Fu Jingsheng away.
Ye Jianming leaned back on the sofa, stopped calling her "sister," and started chatting casually with Gu Hannian.
Gu Hannian secretly took a picture of the drunk man, planning to see her own pathetic state after he sobered up.
Seeing that the young master's mood had improved, the driver returned to the car and called the old lady to report the situation. The old lady heard that her grandson and Sister Rongyan got along quite well, and asked the driver to play matchmaker.
Before the porridge was ready, Ye Jianming fell asleep.
It was the first time Gu Hannian had talked so much with someone she liked, and she was in a great mood. She ran to the sunroom to confide in Rong Yan.
Before she could even speak, Rong Yan said that Ye Jianming was a good person, a responsible and capable person, and that she should consider him.
Gu Hannian rubbed her clothes, looking inferior. She was just a country girl; how could she be worthy of Ye Jianming?
Rong Yan held her sister's hand and comforted her, saying that Gu Hannian was sincere and kind, with good looks, and could rival city girls when she dressed up.
She asked her sister about her dreams and enrolled her in an adult education program.
Fu Jingsheng and the butler escorted Ye Jianming to the guest room to rest. As soon as they put Ye Jianming on the bed, he grabbed his arm and said, "Brother-in-law, I wish you happiness. If you dare to betray my sister, I will drink you to death."
The man made a drinking gesture as he spoke: "Did you hear that?"
"Behave yourself and go to sleep." Fu Jingsheng tucked Ye Jianming into the blanket.
Rong Yan glanced through the window and said to Gu Hannian, "Look, Fu Jingsheng looks quite like my brother."
After settling Ye Jianming in, Fu Jingsheng and Rong Yan went out to run errands.
At noon, Ye Jianming vaguely heard a commotion in the courtyard. The man opened his eyes and found the room somewhat unfamiliar.
He sat up abruptly, thinking about going to the bar last night. Had he drunk too much and been with some woman?
He turned around and found no one else in the bedroom. The man breathed a sigh of relief and muttered to himself, "That was terrifying. It was just a hotel."
The noise in the courtyard grew louder and louder. He thought he heard someone asking about the wedding, which was why he wasn't at the hotel. He patted his still aching forehead and tried his best to recall what had happened that night.
But I blacked out and don't remember anything.
I put on my clothes and came out of the bedroom.
"Rong Yan's family!" the man exclaimed.
"Young Master Ye, you're awake?" the maid greeted him.
"Han Nian, Young Master Ye is awake." Then someone called out to Gu Han Nian.
Gu Hannian cooked a pot of porridge from morning till noon, and finally waited for Ye Jianming to wake up. She brought the bowl over.
These past two days, all Ye Jianming had been eating was alcohol. He was very hungry. The man said thank you, and without even brushing his teeth, he sat down in the yard and started eating.
He inquired about her drunken behavior intentionally or unintentionally, and Gu Hannian embellished the story to deceive the man.
Before finishing his bowl of porridge, Ye Jianming sent Rong Yan a message, then sheepishly returned home with his head wrapped in his clothes.
Gu Hannian took another photo and sent it to Rong Yan, teasing Ye Jianming.
When Rong Yan and Fu Jingsheng returned from their makeup trial, the woman opened the notification sound, her eyes slightly raised as she laughed: "Fu Jingsheng, do you believe my sister and Ye Jianming have something going on?"
Fu Jingsheng glanced at the photo: "Hmm, finally got rid of one of my rivals in love."
"What are you saying?" Rong Yan nudged the man.
"I said it's fine," Fu Jingsheng quickly denied.
"I'll show you something." Fu Jingsheng prepared to take off his shirt.
The driver quickly lowered the back seat partition.
Rong Yan pulled up the man's collar and lowered her voice: "Uncle Wang is about to get a sty, let's get it checked when we get home."
Fu Jingsheng took the woman's hand and placed it inside his clothes: "Let's feel around and see if there's anything different."
Rong Yan was speechless. They had just gotten up that night and she had already seen everything. What difference could there be after a night's sleep? Muscles wouldn't grow much in just a few hours.
Without noticing anything amiss, she casually remarked, "Hmm, my muscles are more toned."
The driver turned on the radio to drown out the conversation in the back seat.
Rong Yan awkwardly withdrew her hand: "Stop fooling around, Uncle Wang is still here."
"Madam, I can't see or hear anything."
"I'll show you what's different. I did it when you were doing your makeup trial." Fu Jingsheng couldn't wait to show off what was on his chest.
"What?" Rong Yan put her hand back and felt it carefully. "You're injured?"
Her skin doesn't seem as smooth as before. Could she really be injured? She was injured there yesterday, didn't she notice?
The woman reached out to unbutton Fu Jingsheng's clothes: "Let me see how badly you're injured. Why didn't you say so earlier?"
She whispered in the man's ear, "No wonder you kept your distance from me yesterday, were you afraid I'd see your wound?"
See for yourself.
Fu Jingsheng's coat was taken off, and his thermal underwear was a pullover. Rong Yan lifted the hem and rolled it up.
There were only superficial wounds on his waist and abdomen that he had seen yesterday. His clothes continued to roll up to his chest, the blood mixed with black and white patterns blatantly displayed.
