Chapter 468 Challenge
"Sister Li is amazing. She even managed to get Senior Jun drunk."
Lin Chuan looked at Li Yue, who had a slightly strange expression on her face. The corners of his mouth twitched unnaturally, and he kept praising her while quietly reaching out to the wine jar in her hand.
"Of course. Xu Hanyi only relied on his bravery to destroy my signboard. However, I have received compensation now..."
Li Yue's words were cunning. As she spoke, she seemed to have noticed something and grabbed Lin Chuan's wrist. "What do you want to do? I'm not drunk. Don't worry about me. I might get drunk only after I finish this jar."
"Then you are not allowed to drink it." Lin Chuan said in a firm tone.
"Oh."
Li Yue responded softly and slowly handed the wine jar to Lin Chuan.
"Is this wine so powerful?"
Lin Chuan shook the half jar of Bugui wine left in his hand. He wanted to try it, but he had more important things to do.
"Bugui Wine is a rare strong liquor in the world. Legend has it that it was brewed by the first Demon Ancestor of the Demon Clan. From ancient times to the present, no living being has ever been able to drink an entire jar without getting drunk."
After the maids helped the drunk Jun Moxie away, Xue Ji walked lightly to Lin Chuan's side, took the half-jar of wine with her bare hands, and said softly, "If Prince Lin wants to try it, I will prepare a jar for you next time."
"it is good."
Lin Chuan nodded in response and turned his gaze to the opposite side.
At some point, Ye Xiaoxiao was already drunk, his cheeks flushed like clouds, and he fell into a deep sleep with the aroma of wine, leaning on Bai Zhi's legs.
"It's getting late. Shall I take Prince Lin and the others back to their residence?"
Xue Ji bowed slightly, her tone gentle, her eyes questioning as she looked at Lin Chuan.
"I remember the way, so I'd better not trouble Senior Xue."
Lin Chuan smiled politely and spoke gently.
"Then I will send a few maids to follow."
After she finished speaking, Xue Ji raised her wrist and waved gently. Two respectful maids immediately came over quickly.
……
Ruyi Courtyard.
After Bai Zhi sent Ye Xiaoxiao to her room, she walked out, and everyone returned to the pavilion where they sat in the afternoon.
Li Yue's residence was not originally in Ruyi Courtyard, but she was drunk at that time and became bolder. Seeing Lin Chuan walking here, she followed him.
At this moment, an evening breeze blew, and the slight coolness dispelled some of the drunkenness, but also made her newly accumulated courage dissipate a little.
"I...I'm going back to my place first."
Li Yue's eyes flickered and her voice was a little timid. Just as she was about to stand up, her fair wrist was grabbed by Lin Chuan.
She trembled subconsciously, and her heart beat violently a few times.
"I remember Sister Li lives here?"
Lin Chuan raised the corner of his mouth slightly and looked at Li Yue with burning eyes.
"Who... who said that? Let go of me, I... I want to go back and rest."
Li Yue's face suddenly turned red, her eyes were evasive, and she frantically tried to pull back the hand that Lin Chuan was holding.
"I have other things to do tonight, so I want Sister Li to stay and accompany Senior Sister for me."
Lin Chuan's eyes were full of anticipation, and his gaze was fixed on Li Yue.
"Achuan is going to Lin Wanxi's place?"
Jiang Wanying raised her eyebrows slightly, looking at Lin Chuan with a hint of inquiry in her tone.
"Well, Wanxi might have been in trouble. I want to go and take a look." Lin Chuan looked solemn and nodded.
"I'll go with my husband." Bai Zhi said without hesitation.
Lin Chuan shook his head slightly and said, "I'm going to go alone tonight to check out the situation. If it's appropriate, I'll let you go with me later."
After saying this, his gaze fell on Liyue again. Liyue lowered her head, a few strands of hair falling down, obscuring her expression.
"I just heard some rumors about Master Li Feng's past at the dinner party, and I'm a little itchy. Master Li Feng, why don't you stay and let me challenge you once?" Bai Zhi said softly with a faint smile on her lips.
"I also want to challenge Sister Liyue." Jiang Wanying nodded slightly.
"..."
Li Yue slowly raised her head, biting her thin lips, her eyes wandering between Bai Zhi, Jiang Wanying, and Lin Chuan. After taking a deep breath, she said softly, "Well... well then."
"I'll play with you for a while."
Before he finished speaking, Lin Chuan had already taken out several jars of fruit wine from the storage space.
After three rounds of drinks, although Li Yue was still taciturn, her previous awkwardness had largely dissipated.
Seeing that the atmosphere was right, Lin Chuan didn't stay any longer and walked straight out of the yard.
……
"Please take me to the kitchen."
Lin Chuan walked up to a maid and said softly.
"Prince Lin, what are you doing in the kitchen? But the dinner is not to your liking?"
Before he finished speaking, Xue Ji came over with a hint of doubt in her eyes.
"I plan to make some food for Wanxi."
Lin Chuan shook his head, his tone was calm, but he couldn't hide the tenderness and concern in his eyes.
"..."
Xue Ji was slightly startled, a complex look flashed in her eyes, and after a moment, she said softly: "Prince Lin is thoughtful, come with me."
