Before Ye Zhi left, he gave the shopkeeper some silver, and asked them to hire a sedan chair to send Mei Xiaoren to the south of the city for a while.

He left the liquor store and looked back uncomfortably as he went out, but that didn't stop her from continuing drinking.

It's okay to be drunk, she can feel better when she is drunk, not to mention that if she is not drunk, where will he have the courage to say that.

Mei Xiaoren looked at the wine glass in her hand with heavy eyes, but Yu Guang paid attention to the door, and when Ye Zhi walked away, she put down the wine glass and sat up straight, and the drunkenness on her face suddenly disappeared.

With Ye Zhi's honest duty, if she wasn't drunk, he wouldn't show anything, but even if he spoke, it would be enough. It's just that when she chalked up their relationship to "friends", his expression changed subtly.

This change was not enough to make any conclusions, but it made her heart a mess, so messy that she didn't want to think about it further, she just wanted to continue drinking, getting drunk, and resting again.

"Little Er, bring some more wine, I want the strongest wine you have here."

"Guest officer, the small shop has to fight ......"

Mei Xiaoren took out a piece of silver and pressed it on the table, waited for Xiao Er to swallow back the unspoken word "Yang", and said: "I'll stay here tonight, I won't go anywhere, you don't have to care about me, just prepare wine." ”

"Yes yes yes ......"

The night is quiet, and she is the only one in the wine shop, glass after glass, from slightly drunk to drunk.

She looked around the empty hall, and even the candles on the table exploded into stars in front of her eyes, and she couldn't see anything clearly.

Her hands gradually lost her grip on the glass, and she leaned on the table, her eyelids getting heavier and heavier......

Prime Minister's Office.

The moon is already in the middle of the sky, and Gu Chuyu is also a lonely figure in the courtyard corridor.

From time to time he looked back at the attic, where there used to be light in the window, but there was no light or anyone at this time. He turned his eyes to the other side of the courtyard, no matter how long or how many times he looked at it, there was no movement.

As soon as she left, not only could not calm the fire in his heart, but also added to his troubles.

Gu Chuyu walked towards the attic, stood in front of the door, and slowly pushed the door open, it was pitch black inside.

He walked over to the menorah and lit a few candles.

The dim candlelight filled the room, faint but bright enough to make a clear view of the surrounding furnishings.

Gu Chuyu walked along the bedroom and saw that there was a dress she had changed into before going out on the wooden shelf, and a hair ornament she had taken off on the dressing table...... In addition to the hair accessory, there is also a letter.

He reached for it, and stopped when his fingertips were barely an inch from the letter.

The envelope was written with her name, her letter, which he should not have read.

Gu Chuyu withdrew his hand, his gaze lingered on the envelope for a while, and he felt that this letter was unusual.

Judging from the handwriting, this letter came from a woman, and the only woman she met in Beijing was Li Qingqing, and if it was a letter from Li Qingqing, he would not call her name on the envelope.

The letter was out of place with the fat powder jewelry on the dressing table, and she should have put it here just for a good time, and then all she did was remove her makeup and change her clothes, and leave the house alone......

It can be seen that her actions today have something to do with this letter.

After thinking about it, Gu Chuyu still picked up the letter and unfolded it.

There were only a few sentences on it, but it had already made his eyebrows deep.

The guards reported before, only saying that she went to the Drunken Immortal Residence, and soon after saw Xiao Er come out and invite Ye Zhi to come in, and then she left first.

Today, it seems that the two of them met in private, and they were cautious, but it turned out that there was a faceless person behind it......

The letter in Gu Chuyu's hand was like a basin of cold water, which extinguished the fire in his heart in an instant, and all that was left was uneasiness.

Did he blame her?

Seongdong liquor store.

Mei Xiaoren had already fallen asleep on the table, and it wasn't until someone shouted her name in her ear that she regained a trace of consciousness, sat up with difficulty on the table, raised her head and looked, and saw only a vague figure.

"Xiaomei, why are you still here? The house has been cleaned and you can go back. Ye Zhi persuaded.

He was really relieved, afraid that her consent just now was just a casual answer, so he turned back to see if she was still there after finishing his official business.

Sure enough. Even if she can make do here tonight, what about tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, with her heart, she will never return to the Prime Minister's Mansion after she wakes up.

Mei Xiao Renmu said: "I won't go back, I'm not going anywhere, I'm still angry!" ”

"You still have a home in the south of the city, it's your home alone, I'll send you back."

Ye Zhi was about to help her up, but an indifferent voice came from behind him:

"Where do you want to take your own lady?"

Ye Zhi withdrew his hand, looked back at the door, and saw Gu Chuyu walking slowly alone. Ye Zhi bowed his hand: "Back to my lord, Xiaomei said that she didn't want to go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, so the last general will send her to the south of the city and to her home." ”

Gu Chuyu saw Mei Xiaoren sitting with his back to him, and he lay on the table again, without any extra reaction.

"Xiao Xiao." He called.

"Xiaomei is drunk." Ye Zhi said again, "My lord, Xiaomei's alcohol consumption was very poor in the past, and now I have practiced it little by little with her, but no matter how large it is, I can't stand drinking like this, I don't know what the adults said, which makes her sad so much?" ”

"It's between us and you, you don't need to know." Gu Chuyu came in, hugged Mei Xiaoren's waist, helped her stand up, and then looked at Ye Zhi.

Ye Zhi understood that Gu Chuyu's gaze was an eviction order, and he indifferently surrendered his hand, "Retire." ”

Mei Xiaoren suddenly stretched out his hand, pointed to the back of the person who went out and shouted: "Don't go!" ”

Gu Chuyu looked at her and locked his eyebrows.

Ye Zhi stopped, the corners of his lips raised slightly, and a few hints of joy flashed in his heart.

Ye Zhi turned back because of Mei Xiaoren's retention, and she pointed at him again and shouted: "Gu Chuyu, you stop, don't leave, let's be reasonable!" ”

The smile on Ye Zhi's lips froze, and he looked at Chu Yu's expression to break the ice.

Gu Chuyu took Mei Xiaoren's hand and put it on his shoulder, letting her look at herself, "I'm here, let's go back and talk slowly." ”

Mei Xiaoren turned his head to look at the person in front of him, looked at him closely for a while, and then raised his eyes to look at it from a distance, held his face with both hands and rubbed it, and said aggrievedly: "You are too much!" ”

Gu Chuyu held her hand and asked rhetorically, "You're not excessive?" ”

"me, I'm still mad at you!" Mei Xiaoren broke free of his hand and twisted his body, trying to get rid of the restraints, but his waist was hugged by him.

She couldn't break free and gave up, and then collapsed in his arms like a mess of soft mud, and even her head rested on his shoulder.

Ye Zhi retracted his gaze and left abruptly.

Gu Chuyu hugged her and said softly, "Let's go back." ”

It was the first time she had been so drunk, and her body was as soft as if there were no bones, and she could not move a step in his arms. According to this way, I am afraid that they will not be able to get home in the morning.

"I can't walk......" she muttered in a daze.
