212. Chapter 212: The Misogyny Emperor vs. the Wife of a Powerful Official (64)



Jiang Li can't drink much, but she never admits it.

This aspect is exactly like Jiang's father, stubborn! Zuixianlou is well-deserved of its reputation. Everyone who comes to Zuixianlou walks in with big strides and walks out crookedly.

There’s no way around it; Zuixianlou is most famous for its more than twenty kinds of fine wines.

Each one has a unique aroma, which makes people itchy and they can’t wait to try all the twenty kinds of wine from Zuixianlou in one go!

As the young master of Jiangnan, Jiang Li was so poor that all he had left was money.

She was well-known for her extravagance in Jiangnan. Every time she came to a restaurant, any waiter who served her dishes and wine would receive a reward from her. Therefore, the waiters in restaurants and inns in Jiangnan would scramble to serve her wine and dishes as soon as they saw Jiang Li.

What a joke! The reward they received from the young master was more than their monthly salary after working hard for a month. Anyone who didn't grab it would be a fool!

Today Jiang Li invited Shen Tingsi to come and taste the fine wines and delicacies of Jiangnan. As soon as he arrived at Zuixianlou, he asked the waiter to bring a jar of all the twenty kinds of fine wines in Zuixianlou.

Although she was generous, Jiang Li's alcohol tolerance was not that high.

Not to mention drinking a bowl of each of the twenty or so fine wines, Jiang Li started to see double vision after just drinking eight bowls of wine.

"Li'er, you're drunk."

Seeing that Jiang Li couldn't touch the wine jar several times when pouring wine, Shen Tingsi looked at her helplessly.

When Jiang Li heard Shen Tingsi say that he was drunk, her stubborn temper instantly came up. She waved her hand and said, "No, I'm not drunk! I'm not drunk! Even if everyone in the restaurant is drunk, I can't get drunk!"

"Come on, continue, let's continue drinking!"

Jiang Li felt dizzy and frantically grabbed at the wine jar in front of her. After successfully picking it up, she poured wine into the wine bowl in front of her.

She was about to pour the wine when another shadow suddenly appeared in front of her. Jiang Li widened her eyes, caught the shadow and picked up the jar of wine. At this moment, the bowl in front of her changed position again.

"Hey, why, why is the bowl still moving?"

Jiang Li put the wine jar on the table, raised her hand and rubbed her eyes, but she couldn't see clearly, still couldn't see clearly at all.

Anxious to prove her drinking capacity in front of Shen Tingsi, she didn't care where the wine bowl was, and directly picked up the wine jar and put it to her mouth! Shen Tingsi was startled, and quickly stood up and walked towards Jiang Li who was sitting opposite, and snatched the wine jar from her hand.

"Li'er, be obedient and stop drinking."

Jiang Li frowned instantly and looked at Shen Tingsi with a pout: "Give it to me, don't take my wine!"

"Li'er is drunk. She can't drink anymore today."

"I'm not drunk! I'm not drunk! I can still drink!"

"Okay, okay, I'm not drunk, not drunk. Li'er, sit down first. I'll pour you some wine."

Faced with the drunk Jiang Li who was trying to snatch the jar of wine from his hand, Shen Tingsi was extremely patient and coaxed her softly.

"Well, then, pour me some wine. I want peach blossom wine."

After hearing that Shen Tingsi wanted to pour wine for her, Jiang Li put down her hand obediently. The wine jar was quite heavy, so it would be nice to have someone pour wine for her.

Shen Tingsi shook his head, then put the jar of wine aside, picked up the teapot on the table and poured a cup of tea for Jiang Li.

"Here, the peach blossom wine that Li'er loves is here. I'll drink it with you."

Shen Tingsi handed the tea in his hand to Jiang Li, and took his wine bowl from the opposite side.

“Cheers!”

Jiang Li took the tea he handed over and clinked the wine bowl in Shen Tingsi's hand in a daze.

She was about to raise her head and drink it all in one gulp when the bitterness of the tea leaves spread in her mouth.

"Bah, bah, bah, this isn't wine!"

Jiang Li turned around and spat out the bitter tea in her mouth, then threw the teacup on the table with a look of disgust.

"Li'er, this is peach blossom wine. Have you forgotten what it tastes like?"

"I, I don't want to drink peach blossom wine, I want to drink the wine in your hand."

As Jiang Li said this, she pounced towards Shen Tingsi, trying to snatch the wine bowl from his hand.

Shen Tingsi subconsciously raised his hand and held the wine bowl behind him, and Jiang Li bumped into his strong chest.

"Hiss, it hurts."

Jiang Li gasped. Seeing this, Shen Tingsi put the wine cup aside and held Jiang Li's red face with both hands.

"Li'er, where did you hit?"

After seeing the slight redness on Jiang Li's forehead, Shen Tingsi held Jiang Li's face and blew gently on the small red spot.

As Shen Tingsi exhaled, his Adam's apple slid up and down.

Jiang Li raised her head and stared at his Adam's apple eagerly, then raised her hand and poked it.

Shen Tingsi paused for a moment, and just as he lowered his eyes to look at Jiang Li, Jiang Li's head suddenly moved towards him, her pink lips pressed against the corner of his mouth, gently wiping the remaining wine from the corner of his mouth.

Shen Tingsi's brain went blank! After sucking away the remaining wine aroma from the corner of his mouth, Jiang Li left.

"The wine is gone. The wine is gone."

Jiang Li mumbled a few words incoherently, but she couldn't hold back her eyelids which kept fighting each other. She leaned her head against Shen Tingsi's chest and fell asleep.

Shen Tingsi swallowed unconsciously, lowered his eyes to look at Jiang Li in his arms, and called her twice tentatively.

"Pear, Pear?"

"Don't, don't make noise."

Jiang Li rubbed Shen Tingsi's chest uncomfortably, and finally found a comfortable position and fell asleep.

Looking at the little head on his chest, Shen Tingsi's eyes flashed with doting. He put his arms around Jiang Li's shoulders to make her sit up straight, then squatted in front of her and carried her on his back effortlessly.

It was noon and people had all gone home for lunch. The streets were sparsely populated and there were only a few people ahead.

Shen Tingsi carried Jiang Li on his back and walked towards the Jiang Mansion. The scenery in the south of the Yangtze River was beautiful, and the road was full of flowers since he came out of Zuixian Tower.

Shen Tingsi carried Jiang Li on his back as they walked under the cherry tree. The breeze blew gently, and petals fell from the tree, landing on the two of them and at their feet.

Jiang Li lay on Shen Tingsi's back, her arms around his neck, her chin resting on his shoulder, she looked dazed after being drunk.

If you say she is asleep, she can talk to Shen Tingsi, but if you say she is not asleep, she has her eyes closed.

Shen Tingsi carried her on his back and walked slowly under the cherry trees. He turned his head to look at the little head leaning on his shoulder and talked to Jiang Li sentence after sentence.

Shen Tingsi looked at her tenderly, while Jiang Li answered him in a daze.

"What's Li'er's favorite drink?"

"Peach blossom wine."

"What's your favorite food?"

"Hmm... West Lake Beef Soup."

"Then let's continue drinking peach wine next time, okay?"

"OK."

"Then next time I'll treat Li'er to peach blossom wine and beef soup, okay?"

"OK."

"Then... Li'er, will you be my wife?"
