These words can only be said to him; if you were to say them to Rouge, she would probably burst into tears.
The fourth brother has always been a responsible person. To be honest, I feel more at ease entrusting Yao'er to him than to outsiders.
He picked up two bottles of wine from the table and handed him one: "Have a drink."
Xiao Jinhan, of course, wouldn't refuse at this moment. He accepted the wine and clinked glasses with him.
The two of them drank the entire bottle of wine in one go.
After finishing his drink, Fu Jiang put down the bottle, shook his slightly dizzy head, looked at him, squinted, and said in a low voice, "I'm old, really old, not as good as before."
As he spoke, he leaned back on the sofa and closed his eyes.
Looking at the empty bottles scattered on the floor and table, Xiao Jinhan also felt a little drunk.
He got up, took off his suit jacket, and covered him with it. He also picked up all the empty wine bottles in front of him to prevent him from accidentally stepping on them and falling when he woke up.
He put everything on the table before standing up.
His deep eyes seemed to hold a thousand emotions, which finally coalesced into a look of starry sky, blue waves, and a hint of respect: "Dad, thank you."
After saying this, he turned and left, closing the study door behind him.
As he stepped outside, the effects of the alcohol kicked in, and his vision became blurry. He steadied himself by gripping the wall, but didn't rush to leave.
Tang Yaoyao and Qiao Yanzhi went upstairs and saw him.
Qiao Yanzhi quickly went over, frowned, and said with some concern, "I told the kitchen to make some hangover soup. You should go back to your room and rest."
"Yes, thank you, Mom."
Qiao Yanzhi was slightly taken aback when she heard his gratitude. How deeply must this child cherish Yao'er to show such a gentle side after getting drunk?
Her eyes welled up with tears, and she sincerely wished them well.
At this moment, Qin Song came over and helped him up.
Qiao Yanzhi lowered her head and looked at her daughter: "Yao'er."
"Um."
Qiao Yanzhi said, "Go and see him, and take care of him."
"good."
After that, Qiao Yanzhi pushed open the door to the study.
Inside the room, the strong smell of alcohol filled the air. She looked at Fu Jiang, who was leaning against the sofa with his eyes closed, and quickly walked over and sat down next to him.
Looking down, I saw his slender hand move slightly, but his eyes remained closed.
Qiao Yanzhi was both amused and touched, and gently patted his shoulder: "Alright, stop acting, the children are all gone."
Fu Jiang: "..."
He stirred and did indeed open his eyes. There was no trace of drowsiness or even a hint of confusion in his eyes, which were as clear as a chest.
His deep-set eyes showed no signs of drunkenness.
He reached out and pulled her into his arms in a somewhat domineering manner: "How did you know I was pretending to be drunk?"
Qiao Yanzhi's charming fox-like eyes held a hint of a smile: "Judging from the amount in this empty bottle, it doesn't seem like it could knock out someone like you who claims to be able to drink a thousand cups without getting drunk."
Fu Jiang put his arm around her shoulder, gently rubbing his thumb against her shoulder, and whispered, "But you can't really stay sober forever."
"Isn't this exactly what you wanted?"
Fu Jiang turned to look at her: "I see that our girl cares a lot about Lao Si, and he treats her sincerely. If I keep acting as a snitch, there may be no one willing to take care of me in my old age and see me off when I die."
Qiao Yanzhi understood him perfectly: "For Yao'er's happiness, you can only pretend to be drunk, let the fourth brother win a round, and also win away your only daughter."
