Chapter 121 - 121: Irresistible Kiss
There was also a bathroom and a bedroom in the room, separated by a bath, with only a door between the two.
Bai Xianyu turned around, but she was hugged from behind by a man who smelled of alcohol and was covered in water vapor, and was brought to the door.
The wooden door creaked a few times.
She was slightly shocked. “Xie Xingyun?”
Xie Xingyun hugged her for a long time without doing anything. His handsome face was very close to hers, so close that Bai Xianyu was about to get drunk from the smell of alcohol.
“Why are you drunk again?”
Bai Xianyu grabbed the edge of the door tightly and felt that she was almost suffocating. In front of him was the cold door and the man’s strong iron arms were on her.
Usually, it was impossible to tell when he was wearing clothes. Xie Xingyun’s entire body was filled with muscles that were as hot as iron and full of strength.
As she struggled with all her might, she saw that there were many empty wine jars beside her.
She was stunned for a moment.
Was he crazy?
He drank so much even though he was sick!
His voice was hoarse and low. “…Nanke?”
Bai Xianyu pinched his arm hard. “What Nanke? Let go of me, Xie Xingyun…”
Bai Xianyu was shocked and held down his hand. “Xie Xingyun!
But the more she struggled, the more unshakable Xie Xingyun’s movements became.
Dark red liquid flowed down and dripped onto Bai Xianyu’s fair and beautiful forehead. It was like the blood on the apex of the heart, or a red mole.
“Let go of me.”
Bai Xianyu pulled her dress and struggled to break free from his arm.
Xie Xingyun’s gaze was blurry. He took a step forward as if he was going to pick her up again.
Bai Xianyu immediately jumped far away like a rabbit. She hurriedly tied the straps of her clothes and wiped the blood off her forehead. Just when she was about to leave, Xie Xingyun easily picked her up from behind with one arm.
At this moment, footsteps came from outside. Bai Xianyu panicked even more. It seemed like Guo Ying was coming.
She suddenly raised her head and bit Xie Xingyun’s neck.
The neck had always been a weak spot, even if that person was Xie Xingyun.
As expected, his arm subconsciously loosened a little.
Bai Xianyu took the opportunity to also step on his foot and successfully crawled out of the man’s arms.
The moment she came out, she tidied her clothes. “Nanny Guo Ying, come in quickly. Xie Xingyun is drunk!”
A series of pain came one after another. It was as if he had been scratched and bitten by a kitten. Xie Xingyun sobered up for a moment.
At this moment, the door opened squarely upon him. At the same time, a robe was thrown over him.
As soon as Guo Ying entered, she saw the person who was still running a fever standing there half-naked and only wearing a robe. She immediately frowned, but her attitude towards Bai Xianyu was still very respectful. “Miss Bai, please help me carry Young Master to the bed.”
Bai Xianyu’s soul seemed to have not returned to its original place yet. She nodded in confusion.
Guo Ying put away the medicine in her hand.
Xie Xingyun was half-drunk and half-awake. The two of them worked together to carry him to the bed. After placing him down, Guo Ying heaved a sigh of relief. From his temperature just now, he did not seem to be running a high fever. She said thankfully, “Fortunately, he didn’t have a fever. Otherwise, the Eldest Princess would have to worry for the entire night.”
Bai Xianyu finally came back to her senses and looked at the wine jars gloomily. “Why is there so much wine in his room? He hasn’t recovered from his illness yet. If no one notices this, it will probably drag a few more days before he fully recovers.”
The main thing was that the drunk Xie Xingyun was too scary. It was as if he wanted to eat her up. Her lips were still numb.
Guo Ying had obviously just seen them too. She was also puzzled. “1 don’t know where Young Master got this wine…”
After speaking, she seemed to think of something. “But they might have been left behind a few days ago.”
“A few days ago?”
“Miss, you might not know, but Young Master went to the Buddha Temple some time ago. He said that he went to listen to the scriptures and to comprehend the Dao. When he returned, he got drunk. In the end, the Eldest Princess got someone to lock all the wine in the residence. Young Master didn’t drink after that, but from the looks of it, Young Master still has a way to get wine.”
Guo Ying smiled bitterly and looked at Bai Xianyu’s expression hesitantly. She wanted to say something but hesitated.
Bai Xianyu rarely saw Xie Xingyun drink, but in this life, she would always bump into him when he was drunk.
“Miss Bai, don’t blame me for talking too much. I think it’s better that I tell you.” As the Eldest Princess’s trusted aide, Guo Ying did not want the Eldest Princess and Fifth Miss Bai to still have a new estrangement because of that matter. The Eldest Princess had already put down her pride, and it was not possible for her to put down her pride again in the near future to explain it.
It was better for her to be the middleman and clear up the conversation between the two sides.
Bai Xianyu rubbed her waist without batting an eyelid. She kept feeling that it was bruised.
After hearing Guo Ying’s words, she nodded without hesitation. She wanted to leave quickly and let Green Pearl loosen her muscles.
“The Eldest Princess had been pampered since she was young. There was no wind or waves along the way. That day, when she saw Young Master drunk, it was the first time she was so frightened that she trembled as she spoke. She was afraid that he would take things too hard and have a knot in his heart. After much pondering, she felt that Young Master was like this because of your rejection, so she personally went to apologize to you.”
Bai Xianyu’s eyes widened slightly. “Are you talking about that time when you and the Eldest Princess came to my residence?”
“That’s right. The Eldest Princess has never lowered her head to anyone. Even the Emperor has given in to her from time to time. This servant has been with the Eldest Princess for decades. This is a real apology. This servant has only seen it once between the Eldest Princess and Miss.”
She paused for a moment and continued, “But the Eldest Princess was too anxious when saw Young Master in that state, so she said some tough words. Later on, Young Master even became cold toward the Eldest Princess because of this.”
Guo Ying was explaining and apologizing on behalf of the Eldest Princess.
However, Bai Xianyu was thinking… that day in her courtyard, on the eaves, she seemed to have wronged Xie Xingyun.
She even said some hurtful words..
