Go back and rest?
Tang Wan’s hand was held by him. Perhaps it was because he had drunk alcohol, but his palm felt warm. He didn’t grip her too tightly, but she still couldn’t break free.
“Fifth Master, please slow down.” Tang Wan could not shake him off at this time. Moreover, for a drunk person, he probably had no idea what he was doing.
“Let’s go back.”
His voice was usually gentle, but it was tinged with the sweetness and sourness of the plum wine. Even his breathing burned.
Tang Wan was a woman after all. No matter how strong she was, it would still be difficult for her to support a drunk adult man alone. She could only keep winking at the bodyguards at the side.
Help me!
The group of rough men, who were usually observant, pretended to not notice her.
Just as Tang Wan was about to speak, the few of them suddenly got busy.
“You want to go back to your room, right? I’ll go back to my room to make some preparations and get the bed ready.”
“I think Old Master Tea needs a bowl of hangover tea.”
“Then I’ll get him a glass of water first. He’ll definitely be thirsty later.”
***
In two seconds, they all ran away.
Tang Wan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. This group of people really trusted her enough to hand Jiang Jinshang over to her. Weren’t they afraid that she would plot against them?
What if she was a female hooligan and ate him up? This group of people was too irresponsible.
***
However, although Jiang Jinshang had drunk too much, he wouldn’t go crazy with alcohol or act recklessly. He just held her hand and refused to let go.
The first time she saw his hand, Tang Wan knew that he was very beautiful. His joints were slender and long, and he was also cold and white. Now that she gently clasped his hand, she felt that his palm was warm and dry.
The smell of plum wine hid the smell of disinfectant on his body. At this moment, his cold and white skin was stained with a little red.
Like the crabapple trees burning a brilliant red after the rain.
Everyone liked beautiful things. Moreover, whether it was the skin or the features of the person in front of her, they were all top-notch and impeccable.
If there was no reaction when he held her hand, it would be fake.
It was not easy to enter the east courtyard. Tang Wan held his hand and returned to his room.
Ever since Jiang Jinshang moved in, this was the first time Tang Wan had set foot in this room. This was her courtyard. In fact, the furniture and furnishings in the room had all been chosen by her. However, at this moment, his things had already occupied all the corners of the room.
They were actually perfectly integrated with her things and complemented each other. If one did not know, one might think that this place..
Belonged to him in the first place.
Tang Wan led him to the bedside. “Fifth Master, we’re here. Get some rest, alright?”
Jiang Jinshang was not in good health. Ever since he was young, he had alcohol for merely a few times. For people who had never been exposed to alcohol, it was too easy to get drunk.
At this moment, he only felt light-headed. Everything in front of him was spinning. Even Tang Wan’s face was blurry. Only her hands, which were held in her palms..
They were real.
“Fifth Master, I’m leaving.” Tang Wan exerted a little force on her wrist and tried to break free.
However, at this moment, Jiang Jinshang suddenly remembered how she looked when she went out today. She was wearing a slim business suit and her top seemed a little too tight.
Moreover, as she was trying to pull her hand out. His heart tightened and he exerted a little force on his wrist..
She was caught off guard!
Tang Wan’s body staggered and she crashed into his arms. She could not move at all.
The bodyguards were dumbfounded.
What the hell?
A scene requiring parental guidance!
Should they go out to avoid suspicion?
“Fifth Master –” Tang Wan frowned.
Such an overly intimate action caused alarm bells to ring in her heart.
However, just as she was struggling, she heard a voice beside her ear.
He was really drunk and couldn’t muster up any energy. Even his voice was weak. Because of this, there was an additional layer of hoarseness. He leaned against her ear and whispered to her..
“Wan Wan.”
The cicadas in the late autumn seemed to be using their last bit of strength as they shouted at the top of their lungs.
It was as if they had been electrocuted.
No matter how calm and restrained she was, she couldn’t help but lose her sense of reasoning at this moment.
However, Jiang Jinshang was drunk after all. Very soon, he lay down next to the bed. He only held her hand and didn’t let go from beginning to end.
Tang Wan had no choice but to sit by the side of his bed. When she felt bored, she even asked the bodyguards to get a few books for her to read to pass time.
It was only when her arm was numb and he was deep in sleep that she had the chance to pull his hand out.
Her hand had been held by him the whole time and it was very hot. When she walked out of the room, the cool autumn wind blew, but her heart was warm.
Tang Wan took a deep breath.
Just by calling her “Wan Wan”, she almost melted.
***
Jiang Jinshang seldom got drunk. He usually did not sleep well, but this time he had a good sleep, which was rare. When he woke up again, it was already dusk.
He had a terrible headache. He supported his body with his arms and felt that his mouth was dry. From the corner of his eye, he saw a glass of water by the bedside. Just as he was about to pick it up, he saw a few books on the bedside table..
“Master, you’re awake. I’ll get you another glass of water.” The bodyguards immediately got busy.
“This…” Jiang Jinshang really couldn’t remember it clearly.
“This is Ms. Tang’s.”
“Hers?”
The bodyguards explained the matter briefly.
They were honest with how shameless he was, holding her hand and refusing to let go.
They didn’t bring her into his room. He was the one who drank too much and refused to let go of the lady’s hand.
Although he didn’t do anything unsightly, he did take advantage of her.
Shameless!
Jiang Jinshang drank some water to moisten his throat. After listening to them, he said calmly, “I drank too much and can’t remember clearly.”
The bodyguards weren’t too surprised.
After all, this wasn’t his first rodeo.
***
At this moment, there was a knock on the door. The bodyguards opened it. From Tang Wan’s angle, she couldn’t see Jiang Jinshang sitting on the bed. She said in a hushed voice, “Is Fifth Master awake? It’s almost time for dinner.”
“Yes.”
“I just came to say that we’ll have dinner at six.” Tang Wan didn’t go in and left immediately.
***
Tang Wan’s heart was in a mess. She was also absent-minded when preparing dinner and almost hurt her hand. Madam Chen told her to stay in the courtyard.
When Jiang Jinshang went to the front hall, he saw her holding a small stick and..
“Poking” the thrush.
The bird was poked by her until it cried out, but she was absent-minded as if she didn’t hear it at all.
During dinner, the old man rarely spoke much. He secretly drank wine and even encouraged Jiang Jinshang to have a few glasses with him. Now that he saw Tang Wan, he was terrified. After dinner, he used the excuse that he had a headache and quickly went back to his room.
Tang Wan and Jiang Jinshang lived in the same courtyard, so it was inevitable that they had to go back together.
As they walked side by side, Tang Wan still felt a little awkward.
“Ms. Tang, I’m sorry for troubling you earlier,” Jiang Jinshang spoke first.
“It’s okay.”
“They said… I think I called your name, so you stayed, right?”
I think?
Tang Wan laughed lightly. He called her name very clearly, and she still felt her ears burning when she thought about it.
Moreover, she didn’t stay willingly!
“I’ve been thinking about the marriage between our two families for the past two days. I was deep in thought and unconsciously called out your name. Perhaps it’s because recently…
“I’ve been thinking about you all the time.”

His voice was warm and gentle. Accompanied by the cool autumn wind, it blew over slowly. Tang Wan felt that..
She lost her sense of reasoning once again.
The bodyguards followed behind. They raised their heads and looked at the sky.
Their master was THE master, alright!
Damn, out of sight, out of mind!
