Chapter 155 You might as well just pretend I'm dead.
The Zhang family's lively atmosphere continued until evening. Xu Jinnian drank a lot of wine for Zhang Daikui and was already half drunk when the party ended, his eyes no longer as clear as usual.
After greeting Xu Cuilian and her husband, Sheng An carefully helped Xu Jinnian onto the donkey cart, letting him lean on her shoulder to prevent him from bumping his head on the bumpy road.
Xu Chenglin was worried that his son would vomit on the bus, so he was very careful when he was rushing to catch the bus and deliberately avoided bumpy sections of the road.
Xu Jinnian wasn't drunk to that extent, but he thoroughly enjoyed Sheng An's tenderness and care. He closed his eyes and leaned quietly against her, the smell of alcohol mingling with a faint, warm fragrance in his nostrils.
Looking at the face that became even more alluring under the influence of alcohol, Sheng An couldn't resist leaning in and kissing it, then solemnly commented, "A little bit of alcohol, barely edible."
Xu Jinnian's lips curled slightly as he opened his eyes and looked at her opening and closing lips: "An'an doesn't like it?"
Sheng An clicked her tongue: "It's alright, not bad."
As she spoke, she buried her head in the man's neck and shoulder and sniffed, a hint of doubt on her face: "Other people smell of alcohol when they've had too much to drink, why don't you smell like one?"
Could it be that I didn't drink enough?
Xu Jinnian stroked the soft hand in his palm. Under the stimulation of alcohol, his hand became a little hot: "People who drink heavily for many years will have a smell of alcohol. In order not to make An'an feel disgusted, your husband will not develop a drinking habit."
Sheng An was very pleased and gave the man another kiss as a reward: "People who drink heavily don't live long. You should maintain good habits."
As he was about to step back, a strong hand grabbed the back of his head, and a hot, alcohol-smelling scent assaulted his nostrils.
Her father-in-law was driving the carriage outside. Sheng An was so dizzy from the kisses that she didn't dare to make a sound. She could only glare at the man who was indulging in the kiss with a threatening look, reminding him to stop.
However, there was no reasoning with a drunk man, so he kissed him while whispering soothingly, "Dad is old and his hearing is not good, he won't know we're doing something bad."
Xu Chenglin outside the car: "..."
You might as well just pretend I'm dead!
Sheng An wanted to grab the scoundrel by the hair and yell at him, "You knew you were doing something wrong, so why did you do it so brazenly?"
Fortunately, Xu Jinnian remained rational, and the intimate actions were limited to kissing, and no uncontrollable sounds were heard by a third person.
Just as Sheng An's lips were red and swollen from being kissed, and she was about to raise her hand to hit his face, Xu Jinnian finally let go of her, burying his head in her neck and shoulders, breathing slightly heavily.
Sheng An felt like she was going crazy; she had actually been aroused by a low moan.
She turned her head slightly away, and said in a guilty voice, "You've had too much to drink. Get some sleep when you get back. If you have a headache tomorrow, I'll have someone ask the teacher to help you ask for leave."
Xu Chenglin, who was rushing to catch the train outside, heard this and felt that his daughter-in-law was spoiling her son too much: "A grown man isn't that weak. He should do what he's supposed to do tomorrow. There's no need for him to ask for leave."
Sheng An elbowed Xu Jinnian, telling him to talk to his father himself.
Xu Jinnian solemnly agreed: "Father is right, there's no need to ask for leave."
Xu Chenglin nodded in satisfaction and said to his daughter-in-law, "This boy is in very good health. A few more drinks won't hurt him. You can sleep soundly tonight; he'll be fine."
Sheng An quickly replied, "Father, I understand."
Xu Jinnian: "..."
He seems to no longer feel his father's love.
Back home, Sheng An went to the kitchen to boil water.
She opened the seal of the stove, added a piece of charcoal, and the fire quickly blazed up. In no time, the water, which was only half-hot, boiled.
The March weather was warm, and both of them had sweated today and needed to change clothes and wash up, which required a lot of hot water. Sheng An washed the two large pots, filled them with water, and boiled them together.
Once the two pots of water had boiled, Xu Jinnian came in wearing only his undergarments to fetch hot water.
Sheng An scolded, "It's chilly at night, and you've been drinking. Aren't you afraid of catching a cold dressed like this?"
Perhaps due to the full effects of the alcohol, Xu Jinnian's voice became somewhat languid: "It's hot."
Sheng An urged, "What's so hot about it? It's all your imagination! Go take a shower now, and I'll go upstairs to get you some clean clothes."
There is a bathroom on the first floor, where the couple would shower and change clothes when it wasn't cold.
Xu Jinnian was ushered into the bathroom with hot water. Sheng An was afraid that he would burn himself while drunk, so she specially diluted the water before hurriedly going upstairs to get a change of clothes.
When Xu Jinnian arrived at the bathroom with his clothes, he had already stripped himself completely naked, revealing his perfectly sculpted physique.
Seeing the man's body for the first time without any cover, Sheng An was so shocked that she stood there with her eyes wide open, her gaze seemingly having its own will, fixed on the man and feasting her eyes on him.
The clothes in her arms were almost too heavy to hold, and they were about to fall to the ground.
A long, slender arm reached out and easily caught the person before they fell to the ground, casually placing them on a shelf to the side. With the other hand, the person, who had been stunned, was pulled inside, and the bathroom door was closed behind them.
Sheng An finally came to her senses and couldn't help but swallow, her originally fair face already turning bright red.
It wasn't a blush of embarrassment, it was a flush of restlessness.
Enraged by the man's ambiguous teasing, Sheng An retorted, "Why did you drag me in to take a shower? Do you want me to shower you?"
Xu Jinnian gently took her hand and placed it on his eight-pack abs: "An'an, don't you want to take advantage of the situation and touch them to your heart's content?"
Sheng An: "..."
She's almost forgotten what the phrase "infiltrate" means.
How could this guy have the nerve to say that?
"Go ahead and touch me, who's afraid of who!"
Sheng An appeared strong and composed, but inside she felt like she had a million alpacas galloping wildly, making her restless and eager to follow her heart's desires.
"It's just abs, it's the same as everyone else. I have a whole abs on my stomach, and they feel soft and fluffy, much better than yours that are hard and bony."
Sheng An was being hypocritical, touching him while simultaneously expressing disgust, resolutely refusing to admit that she was possessed by a lecherous demon; however, the upturned corners of her mouth directly exposed her true nature.
"Yes, I haven't been exercising much lately, which has probably affected An'an's touch."
Xu Jinnian's throat tightened, whether from the alcohol or the steam, he couldn't tell. A faint redness rose to the corners of his eyes, and his lowered voice became even more captivating.
Sheng An wasn't completely blinded by his good looks. Under the man's deliberate seduction, she used all her strength to pull him inside, saying, "What are you doing so wildly in the middle of the night? Hurry up and take a shower, or I won't take care of you if you catch a cold."
Would a strong-willed woman like her be easily tempted by beauty?
What's the big deal about touching abs while naked? If you don't put any pressure on him, how can you get him to willingly show his greatest "sincerity"?
Xu Jinnian, who had already fallen for the trap: "..."
