There was obvious panic and uneasiness on Jiang Huai's face, and Zhang Ma knew that she was right.
She quickly comforted her and said, "Don't worry, miss, the man is so careless. How could he expect so much?"
But Zhang Ma's words didn't bring much comfort to Jiang Huai.
Only then did Jiang Huai realize that maybe he was too sensitive sometimes, which would arouse Zhou Shiyan's suspicion.
No, she had to stabilize herself first and not get in trouble.
After Zhou Shiyan left the house, he drove around Jiangcheng aimlessly.
When he thought of the caller ID on Jiang Huai's cell phone and her reaction as if she had been stepped on, he felt inexplicably unhappy.
He stepped on the accelerator and drove all the way towards Li Cheng.
Li Cheng is a small tavern. It is located in the small courtyard of the owner's house and has great privacy.
There were not many guests here all year round. After Zhou Shiyan found out, he booked the place directly.
In the past few years, he had visited Li Cheng a handful of times, but every time he came, he felt extremely depressed.
The boss, Qiao Shan, was quite surprised when he saw him come in. Looking at the gloomy look on his face, it became clear.
He poured the whiskey over with familiarity, "I've made a few new wines recently, do you want to try them?"
"Um."
Zhou Shiyan took off his coat and put it on a high chair nearby, showing no interest.
Qiao Shan was mixing wine with gorgeous movements, but Zhou Shiyan was not in the mood to watch.
When a man got bored after drinking, he called Chen Yu.
Chen Yu hurried over. He was originally angry with Zhou Shiyan for ruining his good deeds, but seeing his depressed look, he couldn't get angry anymore.
Who said that everything will go well for the proud man?
Look, this is just the same as drinking wine here.
"Your little princess is back, shouldn't you hang around her? Why are you still here drinking?"
Zhou Shiyan lowered his head and ignored it, and Chen Yu felt that the situation was not good.
He looked up at Qiao Shan, who shook his head at him, meaning Zhou Shiyan was not doing well tonight.
It looked like he drank a lot.
Zhou Shiyan raised his head and laughed at himself: "Oh, there are many people around her who care about her, so why do they need me?"
Why does this sound sour?
Chen Yu felt that he was thinking too much, shook his head, and asked Qiao Shan to pour a glass of low-alcohol wine to drink with him.
Zhou Shiyan had indeed drunk too much. When he turned to look at Chen Yu, his eyes were a little wandering.
He curled his lips and asked Chen Yu: "How do you feel about getting married?"
Chen Yu gets excited when talking about this.
Others say that marriage is the tomb of love, but he doesn't think so. He doesn't feel at ease unless Xie Yao, a little fairy, is tied to him.
Chen Yu smiled in a good mood: "You know that even a bachelor like you can't understand it. It's just... a feeling of having a destination in your heart, right?"
Look at his worthless look.
Zhou Shiyan laughed: "I don't know." He lowered his head and looked at his wine glass, "That's great."
There was some subtle envy in his tone.
Thinking of Xie Yao, Chen Yu recalled the half-finished things he had not done before going out.
He raised his hand angrily and punched Zhou Shiyan.
But he was the one who hit, and he was the one who hurt. Zhou Shiyan was in good shape and didn't move at all.
Chen Yu grinned in pain, "The prince of the Jiang family is here drinking alone. At this time, what you should be looking for is not a brother, but a woman, you know? Ren Mengdi, a great beauty! A great movie queen! This After drinking wine and talking," Chen Yu clapped his hands, "Isn't it done?"
"Ah, Ren Mengdi..." His voice was confused, as if he just remembered that there was such a person.
It was not fun to drink with Zhou Shiyan, who was drunk, so Chen Yu dragged Qiao Shan to drink with him again.
When he came back to his senses and took a look, he discovered that Zhou Shiyan had fallen asleep on the bar at some point.
Now all three of them had drank, so Chen Yu called Xie Yao and asked her to pick them up.
When Xie Yao arrived at Li Cheng, she saw Zhou Shiyan sleeping on the bar and Chen Yu chatting with Qiao Shan.
Chen Yu hugged her and explained: "Honey, I didn't drink much. Lao Zhou drank too much."
Xie Yao couldn't stand his stickiness, so she pushed him further away with her elbows.
"Old Zhou can't walk anymore, shall we send him back?" Chen Yu said.
Xie Yao took a look and said, "I don't have the habit of picking up dogs on the roadside."
Chen Yu gasped for breath. Fortunately, Zhou Shiyan was unconscious at this time.
Xie Yao walked over and quickly grabbed Zhou Shiyan's hand and unlocked the phone.
She first recorded a video on her phone, and then found the number he added in her address book.
She looked at it and thought, oh, the remark is quite honest.
As soon as the call was dialed, Xie Yao threw the phone to Chen Yu.
Chen Yu was confused: "Who is it?"
"Jiang Huai, ask her to pick her up."
Jiang Huai was still feeling uneasy at home, but she unexpectedly received a call from Chen Yu, asking her to pick someone up.
She hurried to Li Cheng. When Qiao Shan saw her, he was so stunned that he couldn't move his eyes away until she spoke with a slight apology.
"Sorry, I... came to pick someone up."
Jiang Huai pointed at Zhou Shiyan who was sleeping on the bar. Only then did Qiao Shan realize that this was the eldest lady of the Jiang family.
When Qiao Shan helped her lift the person up, Zhou Shiyan opened his eyes drowsily.
He lowered his head and opened his eyes, and those deep eyes happened to hit Jiang Huai's eyes.
He smiled reassuringly and pulled Jiang Huai into his arms.
Zhou Shiyan hugged her very hard, as if he wanted to rub her into his body.
Jiang Huai was confused for a moment, but there was someone next to her. She struggled and pushed him: "Zhou Shiyan, you hurt me."
When he heard her say it hurt, Zhou Shiyan immediately let go of her and didn't dare to hug her anymore.
He looked down at her, bent down and took her hand, "Go home."
Knowing that Zhou Shiyan had drunk too much, Jiang Huai didn't care about him at the moment. After nodding goodbye to Qiao Shan, he half held and half supported Zhou Shiyan and left.
After Zhou Shiyan sat in the car, he clung to her drunkenly.
He sat next to her without saying a word, and held her tightly in his arms.
He put his head on Jiang Huai's neck and rubbed it, as if he was holding something beloved that he couldn't put down.
The broken hair prickled and itched on her neck. Just as she was about to push him away, she heard Zhou Shiyan whispering in her ear: "Baby."
Jiang Huai froze in place for an instant.
