Xu Youyou replied in a low voice, “I, I don’t know. I was very drunk last night as well…”
The two previously-drunk women exchanged a look and silently lowered their heads. They did not say anything or ask anything. Their faces were almost buried in their bowls.
After breakfast, Su Lanxu did not plan to stay in Moon Pavilion any longer. She rose to her feet and took her leave.
Mo Shenbai said indifferently, “Cang Ming, send Miss Su back.”
Su Lanxu hurriedly waved her hands. “No need, no need. I’ll call a cab. Cang Ming still has to send Youyou to class.”
“I helped her apply for leave.”
Xu Youyou turned to look at him.
“???”
“She drank too much so she should rest for the day,” Mo Shenbai said directly.
“I…”
Xu Youyou had just opened her mouth when Mo Shenbai looked at her. When she met his eyes, she silently swallowed the words hanging on the tip of her tongue.
Su Lanxu could sense the subtle and strange atmosphere between the couple so she said tactfully, “Thank you, Chairman Mo. Youyou, I’m leaving.”
Xu Youyou stood up, wanting to see Su Lanxu off, but Su Lanxu decisively refused.
Su Lanxu just wanted to leave now after seeing that Mo Shenbai’s expression was not right. In any case, even if the couple quarreled, they would be fine in the end. As a single person, she did not have to worry about the stinky couple.
…
After getting into the car, Su Lanxu finally noticed Cang Ming’s strange gaze. She tried to recall what happened last night. She did not seem to have done anything embarrassing. However, Cang Ming kept looking at her through the rearview mirror. In the end, she touched her nose and asked sheepishly, “I… Did I do anything embarrassing last night?”
Cang Ming was expressionless, and no emotions could be heard in his voice as he said, “No. You just vomited all over me…”
Su Lanxu: “...”
“I’m sorry. I’ll pay for the dry cleaning or buy you new clothes.”
“No need,” Cang Ming answered simply. Before Su Lanxu could sigh in relief and thank him for being a good person, he said tonelessly, “You can just transfer me the money. This is the QR code.”
With one hand on the steering wheel, he handed his phone to Su Lanxu with his other hand.
Su Lanxu: “...”
‘I’m sorry for being troublesome!’
Beep!
Su Lanxu paid 200 yuan for the laundry fee.
Then, Cang Ming no longer looked at her and focused on driving.
Su Lanxu suddenly wanted to call Xu Youyou and asked if they had deducted Cang Ming’s pay recently.
Cang Ming did not pay attention to Su Lanxu’s thoughts or expressions. All he knew was he had to save money so he could marry a wife later.
…
When Mo Shenbai went upstairs, Xu Youyou followed closely behind him. Looking at his tall and mighty figure, she bit her nails uneasily. Finally, she said, “There’s no way I would or could refuse Lanlan considering the state she was in last night. I, I swear I’ll never drink again… Mmm!”
Before she could finish speaking, he suddenly turned around and pressed her against the wall. He lowered his head and kissed her.
Xu Youyou’s eyes widened briefly before she silently accepted his kiss.
After a while, he carried her and brought her into the bathroom.
Xu Youyou’s eyes widened, and her face flushed when she saw the mirror. She gripped the collar of his shirt tightly as she closed her eyes shyly and said, “Let’s go out…”
She was truly embarrassed.
Not only did Mo Shenbai not bring her out, but he pressed her against the ice-cold mirror before he continued to misbehave. Then, he moved his lips to her ear and said in a low and seductive voice, “Did I kiss you like this in your dreams?”
Xu Youyou felt her brain explode with a loud bang. After the colorful explosions, there was only blankness.
Mo Shenbai’s lips curled up into a wicked smile as he said in a low voice, “Baby, today is the day your dream comes true.”
Xu Youyou stammered, “I, I… Can I say no?”
“You can only say yes…” Mo Shenbai said before he kissed her again.
…
Xu Youyou rested in the room the entire day. Mo Shenbai even brought her meals to bed.
The sky outside the window was dark now. The mysterious moon hung in the sky. The cool breeze blew into the room through the half-open windows, blowing away the sweetness in the room.
Mo Shenbai sat at the side and lowered his head to kiss her shoulder lovingly.
Xu Youyou was so frightened that she trembled. Her voice was very hoarse as she said, “I can’t… I really can’t anymore…”
She felt like a fish that had been thrown onto the shore; she was about to die.
Mo Shenbai let out a low laugh. He stroked her long hair and said, “Do you need me to help you apply the ointment?”
There was ointment prepared at home.
Xu Youyou quickly shook her head. Her eyes were still red. She had been unable to hold back her tears earlier. She really could not help but wonder what she had done last night to provoke him to such an extent.
Mo Shenbai patted her head. “Then, go to sleep.”
“Mmm,” Xu Youyou said and closed her eyes. After only a few seconds, she opened her eyes and said worriedly, “I’m really tired so I’m really going to sleep.”
“Alright, good night,” Mo Shenbai said. His eyes were filled with love as he lowered his head and kissed her lips gently.
Xu Youyou finally felt relieved. She closed her eyes. Inwardly, she cried to herself, thinking, ‘I’ll never drink again!’
She fell asleep with this thought in her mind.
…
On the eve of the mid-autumn festival, Cheng Ying called Xu Youyou, inviting her and Mo Shenbai back to the house for a meal.
Xu Youyou asked Mo Shenbai for his opinion and accepted the invitation.
Xu Jialu did not return after leaving the Xu family house that day. He sold his sports car and replaced it with an ordinary SUV. Then, he bought the house above Yun Youwei’s house.
Xu Jianshu was so angry when he found out that he began to curse at his unfilial son again, telling him not to come back.
Naturally, Xu Jialu did not return to the house for the mid-autumn festival. Instead, he went downstairs to Yun Youwei’s house under the pretext of cultivating feelings with her when he was really just freeloading.
This year, the atmosphere at the dining table in the Xu family house was not very lively. With Old Madam Xu gone and Xu Jialu’s expulsion from the house, this was only normal.
Mo Shenbai treated his in-laws with respect and courtesy, but he did not have many topics to speak to them about.
On the other hand, Xu Youyou, who had not seen her mother for a while, had a lot to say.
After lunch, Xu Jianshu invited Mo Shenbai to his study to look at his calligraphy.
As for Xu Youyou, she helped Cheng Ying and Aunt Pei make mooncakes.
Cheng Ying said worriedly, “I heard that your brother has moved upstairs of that woman’s house. It seems like he’s determined to be with that woman.”
“Don’t worry, Mom. She won’t marry my brother, and they won’t be together,” Xu Youyou said reassuringly.
Yun Youwei did not have many days left, after all. All she cared about was Xie Yumu, and she did not want to be with anyone.
“He didn’t even come back for the mid-autumn festival. Although your father didn’t say anything, he’s really angry inside,” Cheng Ying said with a sigh, “Your brother had been disobedient when he was young. He had always made us worry. Now that he’s grown up, he’s still making us worry.”
“In fact, Brother is very good,” Xu Youyou said. Then, as though she recalled something, she lowered her gaze and said, “He looks unruly and disobedient, but he’s actually very soft-hearted. When I was young, he always looked very impatient with me. However, whenever he saw I wanted some kind of candy, he would use his pocket money to buy them for me.”
When she was young, the children would laugh at her and mock her. Some of the boys were naughtier and would throw stones at her. When her brother found out, he went to beat them up. He even lost two teeth from the fight.
