The night came into view, the crescent moon hung on the treetops, and an intoxicating night was slowly spreading. Three figures appeared in the night, staggering towards the independent building assigned by Zhu Ping'an. The night wind blew, and the smell of wine was everywhere.
"Hurry up, your master is drunk. Brother Zhu, wake up, we are already home..."
Chu Xiong and Zhuo Yan carried the drunk Zhu Ping'an into the courtyard, calling for help while gently patting Zhu Ping'an's cheek.
Zhu Ping'an drunkenly tried to open his eyes, then closed them again and snored.
"Uncle, uncle..."
When the chubby little maid Hua'er heard that Zhu Ping'an was drunk, she hurried over from the house.
"I can't drink much, I don't usually drink, why are you showing off today..."
The evil woman Ruonan also followed out, muttering something in her heart, but her face also showed worry.
"Ahem, we didn't know that Brother Zhu couldn't drink so much. He got drunk after just a few glasses of rice wine. It's our fault, our fault..."
Seeing Hua'er and the others' worried looks, and hearing the evil woman Ruonan's complaints, Chu Xiong said embarrassedly.
Hua'er was worried about Zhu Ping'an. Her whole heart was on him and she had no intention of paying attention to Chu Xiong at all. As for the evil woman Ruonan, she always disliked these officials and didn't even look at Chu Xiong and the others.
It was indeed a bit unbecoming to make the guest of honor drunk at the welcoming banquet. Chu Xiong and the others were a little embarrassed for a moment. "Ahem, you two weak women may not be able to carry Zihou. Let us help you carry Zihou into the house."
Huaerli shook her head and said, "My son-in-law is drunk, how can I let you into the house?"
"No need for that, Huaer, let me help you." The enchantress Ruonan said coldly, then put Zhu Ping'an's arm around her neck with one hand, and with a little effort she carried Zhu Ping'an on her back, showing a relaxed and casual look.
After the witch Ruonan carried Zhu Pingan on her back, with the help of Huaer, she pressed Zhu Pingan's hands to her chest with one hand, hooked Zhu Pingan's thigh with the other hand, and walked into the house with Zhu Pingan on her back.
Chu Xiong and the other man couldn't help but widen their eyes. This is really true that one cannot judge a person by appearance. Zhu Ping'an's concubine looks like a martial artist...
"Brother Zhuo, although little brother Zhu is drunk, we have already booked Xiyaolou and made appointments with the people. We can't cancel it. Let's go to Xiyaolou and invite little brother Zhu another day." After Chu Xiong watched the seductress Ruonan and Huaer carry Zhu Ping'an into the house, he turned his head and said to Zhuo Yan.
"Anyway, you are the biggest financial backer, so I have no objection." Zhuo Yan nodded, a smile breaking out on his expressionless face.
So the two of them went towards the Xi Yao Building.
When Chu Xiong and Zhuo Yan went to Xi Yao Building, Zhu Ping'an had already entered the house carried by the enchanting woman Ruonan.
"Slow down, don't shake my uncle..."
"Be careful with the threshold..."
"Be careful with the door frame, don't hit my head..."
Huaer kept talking to Ruonan all the way, reminding him to be careful, slow down, and go slower...
At first, the demon girl Ruonan was carrying Zhu Pingan normally, but after walking a few steps into the house, her face changed, a little red, and then turned from red to black, as if she was exhausted...
When they reached the bedroom, Hua'er was still reminding the demon girl Ruonan to be gentle, when the demon girl Ruonan threw Zhu Ping'an onto the bed. In front of Hua'er's stunned eyes, the demon girl Ruonan said coldly to Zhu Ping'an on the bed with a dark face, "Get up, stop pretending, I know you are not drunk!"
"What are you doing!" Hua'er got angry when she saw the evil woman Ruonan rudely throwing Zhu Ping'an onto the bed.
When Hua'er heard the demon Ruonan telling Zhu Ping'an to stop pretending, she was stunned for a moment, then became even angrier, "Huh? Ruonan, what nonsense are you talking about? My son-in-law is already so drunk..."
"When I carried him, he moved!"
The evil woman Ruonan glared at Zhu Ping'an on the bed with a dark face, then turned to Hua'er and said.
"Where did he move?! How could I not see anything? My uncle was so drunk, how could he move? Stop making excuses for yourself. My uncle treated you well, how could you repay him with evil?"
Huaer puffed out her cheeks and said angrily.
"You can't see where he moves!" The evil woman Ruonan widened her almond-shaped eyes and glared fiercely at Zhu Ping'an on the bed again. She spoke with gritted teeth, her words full of gunpowder.
"What do you mean I can't see where my brother-in-law moves? Where did he move?!" Hua'er, the little maidservant of Baozi, asked angrily.
"Anyway, he moved!" the enchantress Ruonan gritted her teeth.
Hua'er wanted to say something else, but she saw the demon Ruonan took out her fish dagger and walked towards Zhu Ping'an with gritted teeth, "Zhu Ping'an! I know you are not drunk, get up, stop pretending, or I will make you sleep forever!"
"What are you doing?!" Huaer stretched out her hands and blocked the bed like a hen protecting her chicks.
"I'll count to three, 1, 2..." The enchantress Ruonan looked past Hua'er and at Zhu Ping'an lying on the bed.
When the demon girl Ruonan opened her mouth and was about to blurt out the word "3", Zhu Ping'an on the bed coughed and opened his eyes, "Ahem, don't worry, I'm not drunk, I was just pretending."
"Son-in-law, you are really not drunk." Huaer turned around in surprise when she heard that.
"Who's worried about you? You should worry about yourself!" The witch Ruonan looked at Zhu Ping'an with a bad face, and the dagger was spinning at her fingertips.
"Son-in-law, why are you pretending to be drunk?" Hua'er asked in confusion.
"Oh, pretending to be drunk makes it easier for some people to do bad things. They can then put the blame on the 'alcohol' afterwards." The evil woman Ruonan looked at Zhu Ping'an coldly and sneered angrily. The fish dagger on her fingertips danced faster, as if it would fly out at any time and poke someone in the heart.
"What bad thing did uncle do? He has been pretending to be asleep." Hua'er said with a puzzled look on her face.
"I pretended to be drunk because Chuxiong and his friends wanted to welcome me back to Xiyaolou. I didn't want to go, but it was difficult to refuse, so I had to pretend to be drunk," Zhu Ping'an explained.
"Xi Yao Lou? It doesn't sound like a good place!" The seductive woman Ruonan sneered.
"Yes, that's why I pretended to be drunk and didn't go." Zhu Ping'an nodded.
"You can't go to such unclean places. If you need me, I can..."
Huaer's face turned red, her little hands tugged at the corner of her clothes, and her head was almost buried in her collar.
"Don't change the subject! What about what happened just now?!" The evil woman Ruonan looked at Zhu Pingan with a bad face.
"Ahem, Hua'er, I'm a little thirsty. Go get me a bowl of water. Oh, honey water is best. Although I'm not drunk, I drank a lot of wine and my head is a little dizzy. I heard that honey water can sober you up."
Zhu Ping'an used the excuse of being thirsty to successfully get Hua'er out of the way, and then said to the demon Ruonan with a frank and apologetic look, "I was wrong about what happened just now. I drank some wine, and you carried me on your back, it was all my body's instinctive reaction... I didn't have any disrespectful thoughts towards the girl, I can swear to God."
"You mean, you respect me like this?!"
The evil woman Ruonan's face became even more unfriendly. The dagger stopped turning and the tip of the dagger was pointed at Zhu Ping'an's heart, ready to fly.
"Ahem, no, no, I definitely didn't mean that..." Zhu Ping'an explained hurriedly.
"snort!"
The evil woman Ruonan snorted coldly when she saw Zhu Ping'an's embarrassing look.
"This is just the first time, and it won't happen again!"
"There won't be a next time!"
The demon woman Ruonan spoke coldly to Ping An, then waved her jade hand, a flash of white light passed by, and a brush hanging on the pen holder on the table in front of the window opposite was cut into two parts by a dagger...
Zhu Pingan suddenly felt a chill...
