Bai Li wanted to stop him, but Xie Xingyun did not walk into the courtyard as he had thought.
Instead… he went around to the corner of the wall on the other side.
It had just rained yesterday, so the ground was a little wet. Young Marquis did not mind his robe. He leaned over and sat down, looking unruly.
The jar of wine swayed between his fingers. Then, the mouth of the jade jar tilted, and an aromatic liquid flowed out. Some of the wine that spilled out splashed across his cold and godly brows.
Bai Li glanced at Bai Xianyu again.
Miss seemed to have drunk too much. Her palm-sized face was like peach blossoms soaked in wine. She was charming and delicate, and her watery eyes were alluring.
She smiled brightly and innocently. The wine cup in her hand swayed. From time to time, she would say a few words to Green Pearl, who was beside her. Then, she would laugh until she leaned against the stone wall.
One wall away, Xie Xingyun had finished drinking the wine in his hand at some point and the jar rolled to his feet.
Xiao Zheng brought him another jar.
However, Xie Xingyun did not take it. It was unknown if he was asleep or not, but he leaned against the wall with his head lowered and his eyes half-closed.
It was originally a very unrestrained sitting posture, but for some reason, it looked lonely and desolate.
Especially when there was tinkling laughter coming from Miss’ end from time to time.
Bai Li did not feel good, let alone someone who had experienced it personally.
In the end, he did not move and stood quietly on the tree.
Bai Xianyu and Green Pearl drank a large jar of wine. At first, she could not stand steadily, but the more she drank, the quieter she became. It was not that she was not drunk, but she was extremely drunk.
On the other side, Xie Xingyun seemed to have sensed something and slowly looked up.
Bai Li yawned.
Xie Xingyun climbed over the wall and stood in front of the girl. He lowered his eyes and said, “Are you drunk?”
Bai Xianyu’s eyes curved, and her red lips were moist. She smiled and did not answer.
Xie Xingyun’s heart skipped a beat.
Then, he smiled bitterly.
Now, even her smile made him feel sour.
“Don’t drink anymore. You’ll have a headache on the road if you drink too much.” Xie Xingyun took a handkerchief from the table and wiped the remnant wine from her lips. He said gently, “Shall I carry you back to your room?”
Bai Li frowned and immediately got off to the ground, but he was stopped by Xiao Zheng.
“Brother Bai, don’t be anxious. My Young Master won’t do anything. Anyway, whether it is you who carry her back or him, it’s all the same.” Xiao Zheng smiled. “We’re already so familiar with each other anyway. It’s not easy for my Young Master to like someone for the first time. Our two families might even become in-laws in the future.”
Bai Li rolled his eyes at him. “Don’t talk nonsense. Who’s becoming in-laws with you guys?”
“Who can say for sure what will happen in the future?” Xiao Zheng held his arm tightly and was still smiling.
Bai Li was speechless for a while as he watched Xie Xingyun carry his Miss horizontally.
Bai Xianyu would not get drunk after drinking some wine. When she wasn’t drunk, she would look very drunk, but when she was really drunk, she would be very gentle and obedient.
She did not resist. Xie Xingyun placed her hands on his neck, and Bai Xianyu hugged his neck. Her sleeve slid down, revealing a pink and white arm. Her little head with lush hair leaned on his shoulder, as if he was her support.
His gaze softened. “Why are you so obedient?”
Bai Xianyu looked at him and smiled, looking beautiful and alluring.
Xie Xingyun’s Adam’s apple moved slightly. The girl in his arms was so obedient that he was a little at a loss. His fingers were stiff as he stood on the spot for a long time.
It was only when his legs went numb that he moved his feet and carried Bai Xianyu to her room.
When they reached the bed, Xie Xingyun placed her gently on the bed. Bai Xianyu seemed to be a little afraid of the cold. The moment he let go, she frowned unhappily. Just as she was about to return to his warm embrace, her fair hand touched the soft blanket.
Hence, Bai Xianyu was confused for a moment before happily hugging the blanket and rolling to the other side of the bed.
Looking at the blanket she was hugging, Xie Xingyun had the urge to snatch it over and let her hug him.
But in the end, he still did not do anything.
She liked gentle people.
After asking the servant to make a bowl of sobering soup, and feeding it to her, Xie Xingyun left.
The next day, late in the morning, Bai Xianyu opened her eyes lazily.
Seeing the familiar environment, she was in a daze for a while before putting on her shoes and getting out of bed.
“Green Pearl?”
“Coming, Miss!”
Green Pearl came in with a basin of hot water and smiled. “Miss, you’re awake. Why don’t you wash your face first?”
Bai Xianyu nodded. “Prepare some more hot water. I want to take a shower. My clothes from yesterday reeks of alcohol. It feels quite uncomfortable.”
Green Pearl nodded. “Miss, please wait a moment. I’ll go boil water now.”
Bai Xianyu sniffed her clothes and suddenly smelled a faint sandalwood scent. “Did Xie Xingyun also come to drink yesterday?”
Green Pearl thought for a moment. “I don’t think so. I didn’t see him before 1 got drunk.”
Bai Xianyu touched her nose. “Mm.”
He must have sent her back to her room.
There was also the taste of medicinal soup in her mouth. No wonder she did not have a hangover headache after waking up. Could it be because she had drunk a sobering soup?
After Bai Xianyu explained everything to Xie Xingyun that day, she was even more calm when facing him.
She would behave as friends do and not deliberately avoid him.
Moreover, she felt that a large part of Xie Xingyun’s fondness for her was due to habit.
Even animals would have feelings after being raised for a long time.
The carriage was already waiting at the foot of the mountain. Bai Xianyu had brought a cone hat when she went out. Before she got into the carriage, the wind lifted a corner of her veil, revealing her exquisite jawline and beautiful red lips.
The coachman asked inside, and immediately the wheels, stained with leaves, began to roll.
In another carriage parked quietly beside them, a man in a bright yellow robe lowered the curtain.
The guard in black said, “Young Master, if I’m not wrong, that should be the logo of the Kingdom-Stabilizing General’s Manor of Great Kui.”
Mo Linyuan smiled. “Indeed.”
“Then that lady just now should be Bai Tanshen’s sister.” When the guard in black mentioned this name, his pupils constricted for a moment.
Anyone who cared about the current situation would know about this young general.
“In the battle of Mobei City, Bai Tanshen was only 16 years old. He used 5,000 people to counterattack Daqing’s 40,000-strong army and single-handedly took Old General Meng’s head. The red tassel spear was stained with his blood and cut open his main general’s tent. He arrogantly left behind the words ‘Those who want to rebel against my Great Kui will perish’…” The guard recalled.” He wouldn’t have lost so badly. Bai Tanshen hasn’t even reached twenty. If General Meng hadn’t underestimated his enemy, he wouldn’t have had the chance to make a name for himself in just a single battle…”
“I didn’t expect to meet the people from General’s Manor so soon.”
Mo Linyuan did not seem to intend to continue this topic. He thought of the beautiful scenery he had seen in the peach blossom forest not long ago and smiled slowly. “I suddenly feel that those people’s suggestions are not bad.” The guard in black was a little surprised. “Young Master, do you want to…”
Mo Linyuan smiled without saying a word..
