"A petty person doesn't care about money..." Fourth Master's voice was somewhat mellow and intoxicating, perhaps because he had been drinking.
If it's not for money, then it must be for sex?
This was not something the usually serious Fourth Master would say. Li Chenjiao couldn't help but laugh and withdrew her hand.
When the Fourth Prince "saw the light again," the first thing he saw was Li Chenjiao's smiling face.
Li Chenjiao was laughing so hard she could barely stand up straight. Only after Fourth Master helped her regain her balance did she remember the important matter.
"How is Song Gege doing?" Li Chenjiao asked.
Fourth Master said it was just a sprain, nothing more.
Li Chenjiao hadn't expected the Fourth Master to turn back, but she couldn't figure out the reason herself. She asked him a question, but since he didn't seem inclined to answer, she didn't press him further.
Heaven knows how terrified she was when she was awakened by the candlelight and saw the Fourth Prince beside her. She almost thought she was dreaming, but she didn't think so.
Only after she raised her hand and touched Fourth Master's body temperature did she truly realize that Fourth Master had really returned.
I was a little... surprised.
Fourth Master watched as Li Chenjiao stood in front of him, lost in thought, and then he drank another cup of plum wine.
"Where did it come from?" Fourth Master didn't remember Li Chenjiao ever opening a plum wine shop.
Li Chenjiao snapped out of her daze and replied, "It was sent by Princess Niohuru from behind."
Fourth Master remembered that Li Chenjiao had mentioned Niohuru once before, so he put down his wine cup.
Li Chenjiao also drank a cup of plum wine. The plum wine was warm and tasted just right.
As Fourth Master had predicted, the plum wine did indeed suit Li Chenjiao's taste. She drank three cups in a row, and Fourth Master, unable to bear it any longer, stopped her.
"You'll have a headache again tomorrow."
Li Chenjiao obediently put down her wine cup, blinked at Fourth Master, and asked, "So... are you settled in?"
Fourth Master raised an eyebrow, raised his hand and pulled Li Chenjiao's slender waist into his arms: "I haven't finished robbing her yet."
Rob what? Rob...
Li Chenjiao suddenly felt a dry mouth and throat.
Well, Fourth Master's use of "this lowly person" really made my head spin.
Li Chenjiao couldn't help but cover her face, not daring to look into Fourth Master's eyes.
Good heavens, this is the study!
She, he, tsk tsk.
Fourth Master wouldn't actually "go berserk" in the study; he simply didn't let go of the person's waist before heading straight back to the main room.
The rug that had slipped to the floor in the study remained, its lifelike Buddha's Hand flower still clinging to the embroidered pomegranate and hundred-seed pattern on the ground.
