The sky was slowly getting dark.
There was still half a candle in the room, but no matches.
Fortunately, Tang Wan’s space was prepared. She lit the candle and sat next to it.
It's still a bit cool in the autumn evenings.
Tang Wan could feel the coolness rising from her body even as she sat next to the table.
She was alone in the yard, there was no one else around, and it was quiet.
Tang Wan didn't bring a watch and didn't know what time it was, but it felt like a very long time had passed.
Tang Wan felt a little sleepy.
There was a knock on the door.
In this quiet courtyard, the sound of the door being knocked was heard, and Tang Wan was startled.
The yard was also dark and I couldn't see anything clearly.
When Tang Wan got up and walked into the courtyard, she heard Qin Zheng's voice, a little vague: "Wan Wan, it's me."
Tang Wan was stunned for a moment when she heard it clearly, and then she opened the door.
The door opened, and the person standing outside was indeed Qin Zheng.
But he reeked of alcohol and even had to rely on the people around him to support him to stand.
Tang Wan had seen the man before, and she also recognized the person who was supporting Qin Zheng. He was the man who had covered his face with a scarf in the yard when Qin Zheng took her to the black market last time.
Seeing Tang Wan coming out, the man handed Qin Zheng to her, looked at Tang Wan with clear eyes, and pointed at Qin Zheng's back.
Before Tang Wan could react, he ran away.
Tang Wan supported Qin Zheng and when she stretched her head to look, there was no one there.
Qin Zheng had one arm on Tang Wan's shoulder, and he reeked of alcohol.
Tang Wan locked the door with some difficulty and helped Qin Zheng into the house.
Qin Zheng didn't know how much he drank. He reeked of alcohol, but his face didn't turn red at all.
A pair of narrow eyes stared at Tang Wan motionlessly, letting her manipulate him.
"Qin Zheng?" Tang Wan waved her hand in front of Qin Zheng, and Qin Zheng's head swayed slightly with the movement of Tang Wan's hand.
Seeing that he was still reacting, Tang Wanyu stood up and took the cup outside.
There is a cup in the house, but there is no water.
Tang Wan walked around the yard in the afternoon, but there was no water at all.
Tang Wan got some water from the spiritual spring and went into the house.
Qin Zheng sat on the chair, half lying on the table.
"Drink some water." Tang Wan sat next to Qin Zheng.
From the moment Tang Wan came in, Qin Zheng's eyes followed her until she sat beside him.
The drunk Qin Zheng was very easy to talk to, and he did whatever Tang Wan said.
Tang Wan held the cup and asked him to drink water, and he opened his mouth obediently. While drinking, his eyes were reluctant to leave Tang Wan's face.
It's already so dark, it's impossible to go back today.
Tang Wan looked at Qin Zheng and whispered, "I'll help you get to the bed in the room."
Although Qin Zheng cooperated with Tang Wan's actions, a drunk person's body is not easy to control.
Tang Wan let Qin Zheng's hand rest on her shoulder, and with the other hand she held Qin Zheng's waist as they walked into the inner room.
Even with Qin Zheng's cooperation, it took him a while to reach the bed.
Seeing the bed, Tang Wan breathed a sigh of relief.
She let go of Qin Zheng's hand and let him lie down on the bed.
The moment Qin Zheng fell down, he let out a muffled groan and then curled up to the side.
Tang Wan thought he was hurt from the fall, but she immediately realized something was wrong.
"Wanwan." Qin Zheng grabbed Tang Wan's arm at some point and pulled her onto the bed, stopping her from checking.
