"You yourself admit that you are boring and self-aware. Master, are you a non-drinker? How can you do it if you don't drink? What should a man who doesn't drink do if he is fined for drinking at a poetry festival?"
"Um."
"Oh, no, it's impossible for you to be fined with alcohol at the poetry festival. After all, you are such a good poet."
"Um."
"How come you can only say yes? Can you hear me? What a perfunctory answer."
"Um."
His skin was very fair, but now that he had been drinking, he looked as if he was ripe, his face turned crimson, and Nan Qing felt hot and uncomfortable for him just looking at him.
The best feeling when drinking is to be tipsy. Being really drunk is actually very uncomfortable. Xie Lingmu will definitely have a headache when he wakes up tomorrow morning.
Nan Qing was lying on the table. She moved her buttocks and moved to the edge of the stone stool to sit. She was very close to Xie Lingmu. He was supporting his head with one hand and placing his other hand on his lap. Nan Qing was lying close.
If you look up, you can see his chin. Whether it's because he's in the bamboo forest or because he's so close, all Nan Qing can smell in his nose is the light and pleasant fragrance of cold bamboo.
"Xie Lingmu..."
"Yeah." He responded vaguely.
He could hear a little bit of sound.
Nan Qing couldn't help but chuckle, then simply leaned over and lay on his lap, resting on his hand on his lap.
"Xie Lingmu, eldest son of the Xie family, do you know how hard it is for me to look up to you? It's very hard, but no matter how hard it is, I never flinch."
"Um."
"You're such a bastard. You don't know anything. You only know how to bully and take advantage of others. With your personality, even if someone marries you and becomes Mrs. Xie, that person will probably be afraid of you."
"Um."
"Xie Lingmu, you are good-looking, that is to say, you have a good-looking face, otherwise your temper and character would have dissuaded me a long time ago. If you were not good-looking, I would definitely stay away from you and not like you.
.”
"Um."
"Why don't you say you don't like you? Can you really not hear me?"
A layer of sweat broke out on Xie Lingmu's forehead. He was really drunk.
Nan Qing leaned on his lap and looked up. What she saw was his chin and thin lips. She couldn't help raising her hand and gently touching his lips: "It's so cold, Xie Lingmu, I like you, but I look up to you."
I’m so tired, so I plan to leave.”
.......
It was late at night, and Nan Qing asked Chen An to carry Xie Lingmu back. She also drank a lot of wine and went back to sleep feeling dizzy.
Early the next morning, Nan Qing got up very early. His head hurt a little but it was okay.
She was washing her clothes in the room, and there were messy sounds coming from the yard outside.
Chen An came to the door of the main house: "Sir, the Imperial Master is here to visit."
Xie Lingmu, who was in the house, had not yet gotten up. When he heard the noise outside the house, he got up in confusion. As soon as he got up, his head felt like it was exploding. This is the end of a hangover due to poor drinking.
Xie Lingmu's face turned pale. He pinched the root of his nose and asked in a hoarse voice, "Did he say anything?"
"The Imperial Master said he was here to take his long-lost niece back to his home."
Xie Lingmu froze for a moment when he stood up. He looked very ugly and his head hurt. Xiaoqin seemed to have said a lot to him when he was drunk last night, but he had a headache now and couldn't remember it for a while.
The only clear sentence is: I plan to leave.
What else? What else did she say? Xie Lingmu’s mind was in a mess.
Xie Lingmu's expression was cold. He put on his clothes and said, "Let the Imperial Master wait for a moment in the flower pavilion."
