Chapter 431 Yueyue! You are so good to me!
Qian Duoduo suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes were a little confused at first, but quickly became extremely clear. How could he still be drunk at all?
She subconsciously took a deep breath, and felt an indescribable cool and refreshing air flowing from her throat straight through her limbs, as if all the drowsiness and turbidity were washed away in an instant, and she felt refreshed and full of energy!
"Huh?" Qian Duoduo touched his forehead in surprise, blinked hard, and looked at Lan Xiyue, his tone full of surprise and disbelief: "Yueyue! What's going on? Why do I feel like, my whole body suddenly feels so clear and clear? So comfortable? It's like, like I just woke up from a good sleep of three days and three nights! I feel so full of energy!"
Xiaohong stared at her mistress in amazement, as if she had seen a ghost: "Miss?! Are you...are you really sober?!" She turned sharply to Lan Xiyue, her eyes filled with awe and curiosity, "Oh my God! Princess Regent, what kind of magic medicine is this? It works so quickly! It's simply...it's an elixir!"
Qian Duoduo listened to Xiaohong's exclamation, and then felt her own unusually sober state at the moment, and finally reacted belatedly: "Ah? A hangover medicine? For me to drink? I, I was just drunk? Need to sober up?" She looked confused, and her memory seemed to be blacked out at the moment when they were drinking and chatting at the hot pot table.
Lan Xiyue looked at Qian Duoduo, who was full of energy and eager to try. She raised her chin towards the couch helplessly and gestured to her, "Sit down and be quiet for a while."
Qian Duoduo was extremely sober at this moment, even a little too excited, but he still said "Oh" obediently, and sat back on the edge of the couch, with his legs together and his hands on his knees, like a primary school student waiting to be lectured.
Lan Xiyue looked at her "honest" appearance and poked her forehead in annoyance: "What are you talking about? You were drunk as a puddle of mud just now, and you were even unsteady when you walked. If Xiaohong and I hadn't held you up, you would have fallen flat on your face!"
When Qian Duoduo heard this, two red clouds instantly appeared on her fair cheeks, and her eyes became vague. She secretly glanced around, then looked at her neat dress, and whispered softly: "I... am I really that drunk?"
Her tone was full of disbelief and a hint of fear, "Um, Yueyue, I didn't say anything nonsense or... do anything embarrassing just now, right?" What she feared most was making a fool of herself in front of Lan Shenye.
Lan Xiyue crossed her arms, looking at her with a half-smile, deliberately lengthening her tone: "What? Are you worried now? Where's the momentum you had when you drank a thousand cups just now?"
Qian Duoduo felt even more embarrassed when she looked at her. She twisted the corners of her clothes with her hands and defended herself in a low voice: "Oh, I'm not, I'm not happy for Brother Lan! It's the celebration of his new house, and it's rare for us all to get together like this. I was so happy that I just drank a few more glasses..." The more she spoke, the smaller her voice became, and it was obvious that she was lacking in confidence.
Lan Xiyue raised an eyebrow and exposed him mercilessly: "How many cups? Miss Qian, how many cups do you mean? I see you're almost holding on to the wine jug!"
Qian Duoduo was speechless after being rebuked by her, so she simply resorted to acting like a spoiled child, hugged Lan Xiyue's arm, and shook it gently, her voice soft and pleading: "Good Yueyue, just tell me! Did I do it? Is it embarrassing? Especially... in front of Big Brother Lan?" This was what she cared about most.
Lan Xiyue was completely dazzled by her. Seeing her nervous yet somewhat pitiful eyes, she said, "Alright, alright. I'm scared of you. Don't worry. Before you can act out in front of everyone and perform a 'Drunken Concubine' act, I'll drag you, the dangerous person, away. Your image will be saved, at least."
When Qian Duoduo heard this, his heart instantly fell back into his stomach, and great joy surged in his heart.
She cheered, rushed over and gave Lan Xiyue a big hug, with such force that she almost knocked Lan Xiyue down.
"Yueyue! You are really my savior! That's great! I knew you loved me the most!" She hugged Lan Xiyue and jumped and rubbed against her, like a child who had received candy.
After waiting for a long time for Qian Duoduo to let go, Lan Xiyue straightened her collar that was messed up by Qian Duoduo.
Qian Duoduo's attention was immediately diverted. Her eyes sparkled as she approached Lan Xiyue with curiosity and desire: "By the way, Yueyue! What on earth was that treasure you gave me to drink just now? It's amazing! Give me some more!"
Lan Xiyue found her greedy look amusing, but without saying anything, she reached into her wide sleeve. Under the curious gazes of Qian Duoduo, Xiaohong, and Chuxia, she actually "conjured" out a coarse pottery bottle from her sleeve that was several times larger than the small jade bottle! It was very heavy!
"Here, take it." Lan Xiyue handed the bottle to her casually.
Qian Duoduo's eyes widened instantly, his mouth slightly opened, and his face was full of disbelief.
She took the heavy bottle, subconsciously weighed it, and looked at Lan Xiyue's sleeves in disbelief. She looked ordinary, even a little elegant. "No, no, Yueyue? Do you have a treasure bag hidden in your sleeves? Such a big bottle!"
She gestured exaggeratedly, "I thought you would have to go back and ask someone to bring it to me! You actually just carry it with you like this? Don't you find it too heavy when you walk?" Her eyes couldn't help but linger on Lan Xiyue's cuffs, as if she wanted to see through the fabric to see what the mystery was inside.
Xiaohong, Chuxia and several other maids couldn't help but look at Lan Xiyue's sleeves curiously, their eyes full of inquiry and surprise - the princess's sleeves can really hold a lot of things!
Lan Xiyue felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by them. She coughed lightly, gathered her sleeves to cover it up, and "explained" seriously: "Well, what are you looking at? I just... only filled this bottle! I prepared it specially for you because there would be so many people here today, and I was afraid that you would get drunk. I reluctantly carried it with me all the way." She tried to make her expression look righteous.
Upon hearing this, Qian Duoduo immediately hugged Pingzi in his arms like a treasure, a touched smile blooming on his face, his eyes curved into crescents: "Yueyue! You are so nice to me! You are so thoughtful!" The tone of his voice made it seem as if Lan Xiyue was the most caring person in the world.
The two of them laughed and played in the house for a while. Qian Duoduo held her "treasure" bottle and walked to the window. She looked at the lead-gray sky outside and the scattered snowflakes still falling. The smile on her face gradually faded, and was stained with a hint of worry.
"Yueyue," she turned around, her tone becoming serious, "Recently, there have been a lot of refugees pouring into the capital."
Upon hearing this, Lan Xiyue also walked to the window and looked out at the bleak winter scenery, her brows furrowed slightly. "It's only been snowing for a month, and the disaster is already so serious?"
