Chapter 112 Liu Yu invites Xie Jingxing for drinks!
The Crown Prince's wedding.
This gave Liu Yu a convenient excuse to get drunk.
Liu Mansion.
After the Crown Prince's wedding.
Liu Yu deliberately pretended to be drunk and got into Xie Jingxing's carriage, asking him to take her home.
It just so happens that it was because of Qian Yueshu's wedding.
Qian Yueqiu has been staying at the Qian residence for some time now.
Su Zhirou also intended to match Xie Jingxing and Liu Yu up.
So naturally, Xie Jingxing ended up with a carriage all by himself.
No.
It wasn't just one person at first; Su Zhirou and Liu Yu were both in Xie Jingxing's carriage.
Later, Su Zhirou deliberately created opportunities for them!
This allowed Xie Jingxing and Liu Yu to ride together in a carriage.
but.
At first, Xie Jingxing was quite law-abiding.
Or perhaps he's always been very well-behaved, only secretly liking someone but never confessing his feelings...
But Liu Yu didn't want Xie Jingxing's feelings to remain hidden in the dark.
She wanted Xie Jingxing to make his feelings for her public!
After Xie Jingxing delivered Liu Yu to the Liu residence.
Liu Yu then used her bad mood as an excuse to drag Xie Jingxing out for drinks.
Liu Yu knew that she looked more beautiful when she was drunk than usual.
Moreover, they can say some ambiguous things to Xie Jingxing without having to take responsibility.
It has to be said.
If Liu Yu wanted to seduce a man, she would have some ulterior motives.
It's generally not appropriate for a man and a woman to drink alone at night.
But everything at the Liu residence today was arranged by Liu Yu, and no one dared to say a word.
Not even a servant appeared...
Liu Yu's courtyard.
A small pear wood table, a few plates of exquisite yet unpretentious snacks to accompany the drinks, and a pot of wine that is heated to the perfect temperature.
As the heat evaporates the wine, its rich aroma gradually spreads out.
Intertwined with the fragrance of flowers carried by the evening breeze, it creates an even more exquisite and intoxicating aroma.
Xie Jingxing was "invited" by Liu Yu.
Despite the fact that it was the Crown Prince's wedding, she was in a very bad mood.
Xie Jingxing felt that it was somewhat inappropriate to be there so late at night.
But looking into Liu Yu's eyes, glistening under the lamplight, the words of refusal lingered on his tongue, but he ultimately swallowed them back and sat down opposite her, lifting his robe.
After a few rounds of drinks, they started talking more.
At first, it was just casual conversation, talking about the Crown Prince and her childhood sweetheart relationship.
Later, Liu Yu deliberately looked at Xie Jingxing with seductive eyes: "If I had known that loving the Crown Prince would be so tiring... I would have chosen my brother back then, after all, you are just as outstanding as the Crown Prince."
He paused for a moment.
Liu Yu added, "Xie Jingxing...actually, if the Crown Prince didn't have royal status, I think you would be even more outstanding than him."
Xie Jingxing's heart immediately tightened.
Or rather, they were praised to the point of being bewildered!
After all, Liu Yu was the woman he had loved for so many years.
The crown prince was the man he was jealous of!
But Liu Yu's words resolved Xie Jingxing's two inner conflicts.
How could he not love her?
Xie Jingxing initially maintained a clear head and distance.
But as the alcohol took effect, and with Liu Yu deliberately seducing him, her eyes exuding an indescribable charm, his upright posture unconsciously relaxed.
This was exactly the effect Liu Yu wanted.
Her drinking movements became increasingly "eager".
As the wine cup emptied, the blush on her cheeks grew increasingly intense, spreading from her cheeks to the corners of her eyes, as if she had been carefully painted with very light rouge.
Her eyes were incredibly moist, and when she looked over, they could draw one's soul in.
"Brother..." Her voice softened, with a slightly nasal tone, more languid than usual, "Actually...actually, I like you too!"
like?
These two words were uttered.
Xie Jingxing felt his heart pounding.
Looking up, Liu Yu, drunk, has a unique charm.
Her hair was slightly loose, with a few stray strands falling beside her cheeks. Her eyes and brows were tinged with intoxication, giving her a fragile beauty, yet within that fragility lay a hidden allure.
"You're drunk." His voice lowered unconsciously, carrying a gentleness he himself didn't realize.
Liu Yu seemed not to hear, and poured herself another cup, raising it to her lips: "Brother...do you like me?"
Before he could answer, she continued, her voice even softer, as if she were talking in her sleep: "Actually, without the Crown Prince... the man I most wanted to marry was you, my brother... but you are already married!"
These words.
Without beginning or end, with an intoxicatingly infatuated air, it was like a tiny needle, precisely piercing some unknown, hidden corner of Xie Jingxing's heart.
His fingers tightened slightly as he held the wine glass.
He was actually unmarried.
He never had a wife.
Su Zhirou only held the title.
Liu Yu observed the subtle changes in his expression and knew that the time was almost right.
She leaned on the table, stood up unsteadily, and pretended to reach for the dish of candied fruit in the distance.
But her feet gave way, and she stumbled forward like a willow in the wind—
Without veering too far, she fell right into Xie Jingxing's arms.
Warm and fragrant, soft and sweet, filling the heart with sweet aroma.
The sudden turn of events caused Xie Jingxing to instinctively reach out and embrace her.
The woman's soft body pressed tightly against him, and through the thin summer dress, he could clearly feel her slender waist and even fuller, softer curves.
The warm, fragrant scent emanating from her—a blend of wine, natural body odor, and a hint of perfume—instantly enveloped him.
This sudden embrace shocked Xie Jingxing, leaving his mind blank for a moment.
However.
What followed was even more shocking, leaving him completely frozen and his blood churning.
Liu Yu seemed to be flustered by the "accidental" fall. She tried to prop herself up in his arms, but her arms seemed weak. Instead of standing up, she pushed and rubbed his chest haphazardly.
When she raised her head, her lips, which were even more rosy and full from the alcohol, brushed against his chin in her haste.
The sensation of that instant.
Warm and slightly cool, with a moist aroma of alcohol, it felt like the softest feather, or the hottest lightning bolt, rushing across the skin it touched and spreading throughout the body.
Xie Jingxing took a deep breath and tightened his grip on her waist instantly.
Reason is screaming madly.
Tell him he should immediately push the person away, straighten him up, and maintain the proper distance.
This is against etiquette, against their social status, and even more so against the delicate and dangerous relationship between them.
After all, even if he doesn't have a legal wife.
However, Liu Yu has already been betrothed to the Ninth Prince.
He still cannot lay a finger on the women of the royal family!
Moreover, he already had Qian Yueqiu.
That woman is currently pregnant with his child.
But……
Liu Yu in his arms was so soft, nestled so perfectly in his embrace.
She tilted her head back, gazing at him with hazy, drunken eyes. Her red lips parted slightly, and her breath, rapid and warm, brushed against his neck, carrying a sense of complete dependence and an unconscious allure.
The lips that had just brushed against his skin seemed to still bear the burning heat of his touch.
How could he resist such teasing?
Liu Yu was the woman he loved most.
The courtyard was eerily quiet.
All that remained were their slightly disordered breathing and the increasingly intense atmosphere of ambiguity.
Xie Jingxing lowered his head, looking at the drunken face so close to his, those slightly parted, alluring lips...
He put his arm around her waist and kissed her without hesitation.
