This was not the first time the two of them had dined together. As soon as Wei Hanzhang sat down, he smelled a sweet aroma of wine.

She followed the smell and saw the wine jug on the dining table.

Xiao Junzhan glanced at her and said, "Ranran, do you want to try the Imperial Jade Liquor?"

Wei Hanzhang's heart skipped a beat and she became a little wary, but the wine tasted so good that she couldn't bear to refuse it.

Xiao Junzhan couldn't help laughing at her greedy and fearful look. He raised his hand to pour her a glass of wine and said with a smile, "Drink if you want. Don't be afraid. I won't take advantage of you."

Wei Hanzhang picked up the wine glass in front of him and told himself that he would just drink two glasses and taste the flavor of this imperial jade liquid to satisfy his craving.

She can actually drink quite well and doesn't get drunk easily.

Besides, the man in front of her with a gentle and coaxing smile was really intimidating. She almost forgot about his previous behavior.

Subconsciously, she was willing to believe that he would not be willing to touch her.

He is the prince. If he really wants to do something to her, there is no need to wait until she is drunk.

Thinking of this, she drank the glass of wine with peace of mind.

The sweet taste sobered her up completely and she drank the second glass of wine in the blink of an eye.

Xiao Junzhan was very considerate and filled her glass again, and reminded her: "Ranran, eat some food. Drinking on an empty stomach is harmful to your health."

He drank quite a bit himself, and as the two of them talked, the pot of wine was empty before they knew it.

Wei Hanzhang held his chin and looked sideways at the empty wine jug, his eyes filled with a thin layer of mist, "...there's no more wine."

Xiao Junzhan looked at her, leaned in close and coaxed her softly, "Well, there's no more wine, let's not drink, okay?"

It was late at night, and the hall was brightly lit by candles. His face looked even gentler in the candlelight, and his eyes were bright and affectionate as he looked at her, with a hint of unknown expectation.

Wei Hanzhang looked at him steadily, bewitched by his gentleness, blinked his eyelashes, nodded and said, "Okay, I won't drink anymore."

He looked so well behaved.

Xiao Junzhan's Adam's apple moved unconsciously, and his eyes suddenly became deep.

Wei Hanzhang was completely unaware, he let go of his hand holding his chin, stood up and said, "I want to take a bath."

"We just finished our meal, take a break first." Xiao Junzhan stopped her. Seeing that she was walking unsteadily, he helped her sit on a soft chair. He carefully examined her face and laughed, "Is this what you mean by your good alcohol tolerance?"

Last time he lost his temper and drank too much, but today they only drank one pot of wine, and she was able to get drunk.

Wei Hanzhang leaned in his arms, sniffing the familiar cold fragrance on his body, mixed with the alcohol. His already tipsy brain became even more groggy. When he heard what he said, he forgot to refute and only said sullenly, "You want to get me drunk again."

Xiao Junzhan patted the little girl's back gently, unwilling to be wronged: "It was just a pot of wine, and I drank as much as you did. I never expected you to be so useless."

He bent down and kissed her forehead, looked at her deeply, and asked, "Are you really drunk?"

Wei Hanzhang held his face and looked at it carefully for a long time. Finally, after thinking for a long time, he said, "You are not drunk. I can recognize who you are."

Under the candlelight, Xiao Junzhan let her hold his face, his eyes sparkling, and he smiled like a spring breeze: "Ranran, can you kiss me?"

“…” Wei Hanzhang frowned and kissed him.

Xiao Junzhan sighed, held her neck, lowered his head and kissed her deeply.

Wei Hanzhang was so dizzy from the kiss that he stretched out his arms to push the man away and complained, "The wine tasted light, but it was actually very strong. I was a little uncomfortable from being drunk."

She shouted that she was drunk, and her whole body seemed to be boneless, falling into his arms. Xiao Junzhan was worried when he saw that she was in pain, so he reached out and gently rubbed her temples, and asked someone to prepare sobering soup.

Even if he wanted them to be closer again, he shouldn't do it in a way that would make her uncomfortable.

A palace maid brought some sobering soup and helped Wei Hanzhang to wash up.

She was not drunk like last time. When she came out of the bathroom, she saw the man lying on the bed with his hair loose and his body wet from the bath. She asked, "Am I going to share the same room with you again tonight?"

She asked so frankly that Xiao Junzhan couldn't tell what she was thinking. After hesitating for a while, he said without blushing or panting, "That's right."

Wei Hanzhang was not at all vague when he heard this. He walked towards him and untied the curtain very appropriately.

Xiao Junzhan's eyebrows jumped and he asked, "Are you still drunk?"

"What?" Wei Hanzhang looked at him in surprise: "Is it not possible for me to get close to you?"

"...It's okay." Xiao Junzhan paused, lifted the curtain and was about to get off the bed, but Wei Hanzhang grabbed his neck and hugged him back, "Didn't we agree to live in the same palace? Why are you running away?"

Xiao Junzhan felt a little uncomfortable being strangled. He moved his neck, hugged her in his arms, and sighed, "I didn't run away."

Wei Hanzhang buried his face in his neck, smelling his scent after bathing, and hugged him tighter: "Brother Boqian, sleep with me."

Xiao Junzhan blinked very slowly, and was stunned for a few breaths before he reacted: "What did you say?"

Wei Hanzhang said very naturally: "I said, I want you to sleep with me."

She spoke so confidently that Xiao Junzhan didn't know how to refute her for a moment.

After a long pause, he finally reacted.

...Why would he refute? Several layers of curtains were stacked down, blocking the candlelight outside. The light on the bed was dim. Xiao Junzhan swallowed his throat, hugged the person into his arms and lay down, coaxing him softly, "Okay, I'll sleep with Ranran."

Only then did Wei Hanzhang nestle in his arms contentedly, reaching out to poke his chest and saying, "You obviously like me very much, but you love to act pretentiously and don't allow me to mess around."

"It's my fault," Xiao Junzhan looked down at her, his eyes slightly bitter, "I shouldn't always discipline you and force you to reveal your true nature."

"..." Wei Hanzhang said unhappily: "Why did you reveal your true nature? Am I just someone who loves to tease you?!"

Xiao Junzhan seemed a little confused: "Isn't it?"

"Really?" Wei Hanzhang was a little angry. He tilted his head in his arms and stared at him without blinking. "Then what is Brother Boqian's true nature?"

The hand that was gently patting her shoulder paused slightly, Xiao Junzhan's body stiffened, and suddenly he lowered his head and kissed her lips.

Wei Hanzhang subconsciously grasped his collar, tilted her head back and accepted his kiss.

She was already drunk, and she loved the scent of him. The two of them were so close, her whole body was surrounded by his scent. Wei Hanzhang inexplicably wanted to cry, she stood up and got out of his arms, looking down at him.

She tried hard to blink her eyes, holding back tears and said, "When can the poison be removed? I don't want to hate you again after a while."

Her aggrieved look made Xiao Junzhan feel a dull pain in his heart. He stretched out his arms and hugged her tightly, saying in a hoarse voice: "It will be soon. I promise not to make Ranran feel uncomfortable."
