Chapter Ninety-Seven: Drunkenness
Boyan didn't take Naning back to the Orchid Garden according to the meaning of Xuanhe, he took it upon himself to go back to the residence he had found before.
He still had scruples about Ye Zi.
What's more, he still has to find a way to go back to Lingshan Town to rescue Yihe.
"Brother?" Naning opened her eyes weakly and looked at Boyan who kept pacing by the window, "Why did we come back?"
"Naning, how are you feeling? Is there anything else uncomfortable?" Seeing that she woke up, Boyan hurriedly sat on the edge of the bed and greeted thoughtfully, "Do you want to eat something, my brother will buy it for you." ”
"I don't want to," Naning sat up with her body propped up, her mind was full of chaos, she almost forgot everything that happened in Lingshan Town, but she still remembered that she fell down the mountain, it was the fourth campus that Yihe took her back to, "By the way, brother, what about Yihe, did she come back with us?"
Boyan shook his head.
"Then what's the matter, the fourth campus is very dangerous, she must come back as soon as possible, why don't you persuade her?"
Naning frowned, based on her observations in the previous days, her brother, who was not good at words, had fallen in love with this young and beautiful head of the Orchid Garden.
"Even if I'm here, I can't help much, not to mention that you're injured, and I have to take care of you. ”
What the?!
It's because of her?!
Naning's mouth opened wide in shock, "Brother, I'm sorry." ”
"Fool, what does this have to do with you, don't think about it, rest well, I'll buy you something to eat. Boyan rubbed her head and left the house without staying too long, he had to quickly find a way to go to Lingshan Town to save people.
......
In the orchid garden, Higashino Que sat in the small pavilion in the center of the lake, watching the medicine girl sitting on the side drink cup after cup.
"I finally understand why you like wine so much, it's such a good thing. Xu Lanxin looked at the wine glass in her hand and smiled stupidly.
"Don't drink like this, it'll be very uncomfortable later. Dong Yeque reached out and wanted to grab the wine glass in her hand, but Lan Xin directly stuffed the wine glass into her sleeve, picked up the jar of wine and poured a few sips directly.
Her eyes were full of hot flashes, and she quietly probed and saw two maids standing behind the big elm tree, she pointed at Dong Yeque, and then pointed at herself, "Who are you looking at?
After laughing a few times, the two still sat at the table, but two glasses, a jar of wine, and an oil lamp were placed on the table again.
"It's really strange, how can this wine be drunk more and more?" After saying that, she picked up the wine jar and poured the wine again, took out the wine glass from her sleeve, and dried it with a sip of her pink neck.
Dong Ye Que was dumbfounded, Lan Xin drank like this, and it was the first time he had seen it.
"Don't sit still, come and have some drinks with me. Lan Xin stared at Dong Yeque, obviously his eyes were straight, but his eyes were a little confused.
Higashino bit his lip and looked at her silently.
Xu Lan smiled disgustedly and toasted again, she knew in her heart that she had never liked to drink, and she would never drink.
After a few glasses of wine, sure enough, she began to cough violently, coughing so much that her whole body trembled slightly, and her face was red.
Higashino Que got up and went to her side and patted her on the back gently.
"You say," Xu Lan's eyes were full of tears, and she didn't know if she was choking on wine: "My father obviously likes me so much, but why did he force me to marry someone I don't like?"
Higashino Que sighed lightly and silently continued to knock her shoulders and rub her back.
Xu Lanxin coughed unstoppable, and actually went to grab the wine jar again. Dong Yeque couldn't hold back any longer, hurriedly grabbed her hand, and said with a little anger in his tone: "Don't drink it, if you drink it again, you will drink to death!"
"Leave me alone, let me drink. She went to grab the jar of wine without hesitation, but she pounced. Dong Yeque resolutely grabbed her, carried the wine jar with his other hand, and casually put it in the corner of the table far away, and said, "I really can't drink anymore, I'll help you go back to rest." ”
"Do you know?" Xu Lanxin ignored Dong Yeque's words, and only smiled slightly, "He once said that he would take me to see the famous mountains and rivers and travel the world, he would agree to me whatever I wanted to do, I have always been held in the palm of his hand, but now he wants to marry me to a man I have never met, why do I treat me like this from him." ”
Ye Zi happened to be passing by here, and when she heard Xu Lanxin's words, she couldn't help but be shocked and froze.
"I know that marriage is a big event, and it is naturally the words of my parents, but I don't want to, I don't obey. Xu Lanxin raised her forehead and shook her head, as if she was extremely uncomfortable, Dong Yeque listened to her words, looked ahead in a daze, and her eyes quietly turned red.
"Higashino Que," she suddenly raised her head and said with a grin, "You said I look like a person, is that person your sweetheart?"
"Huh?" Higashino Que was startled.
Ye Zi, who was standing not far away, was also bluffed, and heard Dong Yeque smile and say, "Yes, you look a lot like the woman I like." ”
"Then marry me. Xu Lanxin stared at him and said word by word, like Lin Keyu before, when she was drinking while stroking the piano, and then curled up in his arms like a little rabbit, and whispered in his ear:
"Then marry me. ”
"Lan Xin, you drank too much, I'll help you go back to your room to rest. Dong Yeque was a little flustered, and his eyes dodged Lan Xin's gaze.
"You can't hide it from me," Xu Lanxin smiled: "Your eyes have betrayed you." ”
Dong Yeque's face was flushed, he patted his face, and meditated intently, she is Xu Lanxin, she is not Lin Keyu.
"Also, you told me that you are a heartless person, with an empty shell of immortality," Lan Xin continued: "That woman should have been a long, long time ago, you said that I looked very similar to her, so could I be her present life?"
Higashino froze.
Ye Zi, who had been standing and eavesdropping, was also stunned, and she didn't even notice it, and hatred was already all over her face.
"You helped me escape from marriage, and my reputation was ruined, no matter what happens in the future, you will protect me like my father used to. Xu Lanxin stood up on the table, brought back the wine jar at the corner of the table, and continued to pour wine into her cup.
"This time, I may never see my father again. She began to cry when she finished speaking, crying so hard that her shoulders trembled, and her voice choked with crying.
Dong Yeque didn't speak, just helped her pour the wine, but she didn't hold it steady, the wine juice flowed on the table, and when she looked back, Xu Lanxin's head had already hit the table, lying there and never moving.
Higashino sat down, staring blankly at a certain place, and drank the remnants of the wine from the glass she had drunk.
"Yu'er, is it you?" he whispered again, looking at Xu Lanxin, I don't know what I thought, tears welled up again, "Is it you?"
Ye Zi's body stiffened, she didn't want to listen to it anymore, she didn't want to watch it anymore, at this moment she was like an outsider, she could only run away after being angry.
Dong Yeque sighed, picked up Xu Lanxin, who had fallen asleep, into the house, and helped her take off her clothes and cover her with a quilt.
Just as he was about to leave, Xu Lan grabbed his hand in a daze, and said something vaguely in his mouth, he bent down and heard some intermittent words, presumably: "Don't go, please, don't go." ”
"Okay, I'm not leaving. ”
I'll be with you right here until you wake up.
The dark night seemed to be smeared heavily on the sky, and there was not even a glimmer of stars.
The moonlight does not change, but people change.
He wasn't the same person he once was, and I wish she knew the cost of all of this.
