A few days later, Cheng Yuesheng received news from Mr. Qin that Mr. Zhai had invited the Qin family, including her, to his 80th birthday.
Cheng Yuesheng was a little surprised and asked Mr. Qin the reason.
Old Master Qin told her to relax, as long as he and Qin Heque were there, no one would dare to look down on her.
Qin Heque had a social event today and came back late.
Feng Binbin had already sent a message to Cheng Yuesheng in advance, telling her that Qin Heque had been drinking and might need her care.
It was almost 10 o'clock when Qin Heque returned.
Although Feng Binbin told her that Qin Heque had been drinking, Cheng Yuesheng couldn't tell that he was any different from usual.
When the two were close, Cheng Yuesheng could smell a faint smell of alcohol on him, but fortunately it was not too bad.
This seemed to be the first time she saw Qin Heque after drinking. She looked at him inconspicuously.
Qin Heque still looked calm, as if nothing could cause him any disturbance. There was no sign of anything being different from usual, so he probably didn't drink much.
Cheng Yuesheng told him about Mr. Zhai’s birthday party invitation.
"Why would he invite me to go with him? Isn't he afraid of being angered by me again?" Cheng Yuesheng asked in confusion.
Qin Heque recalled how she had confronted Mr. Zhai in the restaurant's private room before, and couldn't help but laugh, "He probably won't want to do it again."
Cheng Yuesheng glared at the laughing Qin Heque and said, "Then why did he invite me?"
"He already knows that you are my girlfriend, so how could he not invite you to go? Besides, grandpa likes you too. In his eyes, our relationship is solid. Not inviting you would be a slap in the face of the Qin family." Qin Heque said calmly.
"Okay." Cheng Yuesheng reluctantly agreed with his reasons.
"Were you laughing at me just now?" Cheng Yuesheng approached Qin Heque and asked.
"I didn't." Qin Heque denied it flatly.
"You did. When I asked you if Mr. Zhai was afraid of being confronted by me, you laughed." Cheng Yuesheng accused. She saw it clearly.
"Okay, since you have already discovered it, I admit that I did laugh just now." Qin Heque spread his hands.
"Why are you laughing at me?"
Qin Heque looked at her angrily and curled his lips.
"I didn't mean it, I just couldn't help it." Qin Heque looked at her with gentle eyes.
"snort!"
Cheng Yuesheng stared at him with an unconvinced look on his face, his round eyes were wet, his rosy lips were slightly pouting, he looked a little aggrieved and looked very delicate.
Her hair fell on her cheek. Qin Heque's heart moved, but before he could react, his fingers had already picked up the hair on their own initiative, and he tucked it behind her ear naturally and familiarly, as if he had done it a thousand times.
In fact, he suddenly felt that his action was a bit abrupt in the middle of the process, but since he had already done it, there was no way he would stop halfway.
When he withdrew his hand, his long fingers accidentally touched her small earlobe, causing Cheng Yuesheng to shrink her neck.
The touch of my fingertips is cool, yet soft.
The fingers that fell back to the side twisted together vigorously, but the movements were very subtle and restrained.
Cheng Yuesheng became more lively and comfortable in front of him, which was a very good state.
"Because you are so cute." The corners of his lips curled up slightly, and his tone of voice was very lazy, and there was even a bit of indescribable tenderness and beauty in it.
Cheng Yuesheng's face quickly became visibly red with blood and turned red in just a few seconds.
She was not used to such compliments from others, and she had never thought that Qin Heque could say such straightforward words. His smile could be so touching that it made her heart beat fast.
The two of them were too close, and Cheng Yuesheng felt that the scent of Qin Heque was in his nostrils, and he seemed to be a little drunk by the smell of alcohol on him.
Being so close, their eyes inevitably met. She seemed to be able to see the emotions hidden in his eyes, like a ray of light veiled in the clouds, seemingly unable to be blocked any longer, and powerfully threatening to burst through the clouds.
Cheng Yuesheng couldn't resist such a strong gaze, and her tenderness was now clearly visible in Qin Heque's eyes.
He grabbed Cheng Yuesheng's thin wrist. Her wrist was so slender in his palm that it seemed as if it would break if he exerted even the slightest force.
Qin Heque exerted a little force to pull her closer to him, and it seemed as if something was about to burst out between them in an instant.
Qin Heque had been drinking and his temperature was high. Cheng Yuesheng felt his palm was a little warm, and the skin he touched was slightly hot, but she seemed to have no strength left to break free and could only let him hold her.
After a long while, Qin Heque suddenly let go of her hand. He restrained his urge to hug her and took two steps back.
"It's getting late, you should go back and rest." There was a hoarseness and forbearance in Qin Heque's voice that came from drinking, but his face had returned to its usual indifferent look.
In just a moment, everything returned to calm.
Cheng Yuesheng hadn't come back to her senses yet and was a little dazed for a moment, as if the atmosphere just now was just her illusion.
Maybe Qin Heque was really drunk, but he just didn't show it on his face.
"You drank some wine. Do you want me to make you some honey water?" Cheng Yuesheng asked with some concern. Qin Heque was a little abnormal tonight, and she was not very reassured, so she went back to her room to rest.
Qin Heque lowered his eyes and looked listless. He was silent for a few seconds and then said, "Okay."
Cheng Yuesheng went to the kitchen to make honey water, leaving Qin Heque alone in the living room.
He sat on the dark sofa, desire twisting and turning in his heart, as if to tear his calm expression apart, but in the end he just closed his eyes tightly.
After a few seconds, when he opened his eyes again, the emotions in his eyes were surging like clouds, desire and restraint competing with each other, and he looked like a trapped beast about to break out of a cage.
Fortunately, he didn't drink much tonight, and he has always had strong self-control and rationality, otherwise the close contact just now might have made him lose control of himself.
Qin Heque told himself over and over again in his heart.
Don't rush it, don't hurt her.
He can't take advantage of Cheng Yuesheng just because he is soft-hearted.
After several mental struggles, his emotions finally calmed down and he breathed a sigh of relief.
When Cheng Yuesheng brought out the honey water, Qin Heque had already returned to his calm demeanor.
"The honey water is ready." Cheng Yuesheng walked up to him with the cup and asked, "Do you want to drink it now?"
It seemed as if as long as Qin Heque nodded, she would feed the honey water to his mouth.
Qin Heque stared at her for a few seconds and shook his head. "Put it down first. I'll drink it myself later."
If the two of them had any more intimate contact at this time, he was afraid that it would destroy his rationality, which he tried hard to control, and arouse the desire that he had suppressed in his heart.
Qin Heque silently made a decision that it would be better to drink less when he was around Cheng Yuesheng.
"Okay, I'll go back to my room first. After you finish drinking the honey water, go back and wash up and rest."
Cheng Yuesheng put the honey water on the coffee table, and left the living room and returned to his room with a mixed mood.
