Upon hearing this, Lu Huai seemed to want to say something, but hesitated for a long time, his face turning slightly red. Shu Zhan was truly worried that he wouldn't be able to catch his breath and would pass away at such a young age.
Fortunately, Lu Huai finally spoke. He slammed his hand on the table with great enthusiasm, his face flushed, "Bring...bring some plain water!"
Even the servant who was delivering the wine was startled and almost spilled it.
Ayu: "..."
Shu Zhan: "..."
Seeing their expressions, Lu Huai coughed and said seriously, "You don't understand. When you go out for drinks, it's not about what you drink. As long as there's something to drink, that's enough. You can't lose in terms of spirit when it comes to drinking!"
"Great!" A-Yu clapped his hands immediately, his face full of admiration. "Young Master is absolutely right!"
Shu Zhan was speechless: "..."
Lu Huai tilted his head and said to A Yu, "Go quickly and pick the best plain water, only then will it suit my status."
Ayu: "Yes!"
...

"Sister Qi, why are you doing this to yourself?" The Fourth Prince shook his head, helped her up, carried her to the bedside, and sat her against the wall.
Qin Xi was very resistant to his approach, "Why...why are you doing this?"
Upon hearing this, the fourth prince's eyes widened slightly, as if he had heard something amusing. He picked up his teacup and laughed, "Why? You actually ask me why? Hahahaha..."
Qin Qi frowned, not quite understanding what he meant.
"Do you know? As the legitimate son of the Empress Dowager, I was outstanding from a young age, and even my father praised me highly." He stopped laughing, and a hint of nostalgia appeared in his eyes.
"After meeting you, I knew I would marry no one but you, and you could only marry me. You said you didn't like the hot summer, firstly because of the heat, and secondly because you didn't want to see cicadas being caught."
He sat down on the round stool, a slight smile playing on his lips. "You said it's already a difficult thing for them to live, and you don't want to see them captured and played with."
“You are so kind-hearted, you always manage to easily touch my heartstrings. I often suspect that you are doing it on purpose, but my eyes can’t help but fall on you.” His Adam’s apple bobbed slightly, and he took another sip of tea. “Now, thanks to your influence, I’ve become indecisive too.”
Qin Xi pursed her lips, "I never intended to do anything to you, let alone flirt with you."
"Yes, you haven't thought about it, but I have!" He suddenly became agitated and roared, "Do you know what I've thought about it? I've thought about what it would be like to have you, what it would be like to marry you, and I've even thought about what it would be like to have children and grandchildren around me!"
"But what about you? You actually married a nobody, a good-for-nothing playboy!" The fourth prince's eyes reddened, and with a "bang," he swept all the teacups on the table to the ground. "Why did you do this? Why!"
Qin Xi was startled by his movement and instinctively tried to back away, but her body was too weak to move at all.
"Heh." He suddenly gave a self-deprecating chuckle, then abruptly raised his head, a smirk playing on his lips. "But it's alright, those images are all in my mind, they'll come true eventually."
Qin Xi sensed something was wrong with him and frowned warily, "What do you mean?"
"With you, all those things will gradually come true." The Fourth Prince's eyes suddenly lit up. "Come, Sister Qi, don't be afraid. We're married. Tonight is our wedding night."
The Fourth Prince looked as if he had lost his mind. Alarm bells rang in Qin Qi's mind; she wanted to escape him, but her body was limp and powerless, even…
