The Little Brat’s Sweet And Sassy-Chapter 1223 - 1223 Side Story 2: Alcohol Tolerance
1223 Side Story 2: Alcohol Tolerance
The bright sunlight flowed in through the window, casting a dazzling light on the ground.
Shen Li slowly opened her eyes.
A warm feeling came from her side, mixed with the cool scent of cedar and a faint sweetness.
Like a ripe peach that had fallen to the ground, with its juice splashed everywhere, a sweet fragrance seemed to fill the air.
She was still feeling a little drowsy and her head ached, so she frowned.
Sensing her movements, the man lying beside her, who had already woken up, kissed her between her brows.
“You’re awake?”
His voice was low and husky, sounding lazy and attractive.
Subconsciously, she snuggled into his arms and answered in a soft, seductive voice, “Yes…”
With just this movement, she felt a soreness and pain all over her body.
She immediately frowned.
It hurt!
Her entire body felt as if it had been repeatedly taken apart and crushed repeatedly. It even hurt to move her fingers.
She finally found a trace of rationality.
Lu Huaiyu heard her gasp and placed a hand on her waist.
“Does it hurt?”
She nodded and looked up at him with an aggrieved expression.
When that pure, noble, and cold face appeared before her, she was momentarily stunned before she suddenly remembered something.
The scenes from last night came rushing back into her mind!
Her face suddenly turned red!
“Lu Huaiyu!”
This man was really…
Lu Huaiyu’s brows raised slightly.
“Yes, I’m here.”
She immediately tried to sit up, but as soon as she moved, she felt a soreness in her waist and fell back down.
Lu Huaiyu chuckled.
“Are you getting up?”
Shen Li clutched the blanket tightly with one hand and pointed at him with the other. Even her ears were red.
“You!”
Lu Huaiyu sat up, his gaze falling on her white, tender finger. f𝐫ee𝘄ℯ𝚋no𝐯𝐞l.c𝘰m
Shen Li’s mind exploded, and the images became even clearer. She immediately withdrew her hand as if she had been scalded!
Lu Huaiyu raised his eyebrows.
“It looks like you didn’t lose your memory this time?”
Shen Li’s eyebrows twitched, and she retorted without thinking, “No! I don’t remember anything!”
“Is that so?”
Lu Huaiyu put his hand to his side, as if he did not really believe it.
Shen Li quickly realized that her words were not convincing enough.
If she really could not remember anything, why would her reaction be so big now?
However, it was impossible for her to admit that she did!
She gritted her teeth.
“I… I really did forget everything! I don’t remember a thing!”
Because she had cried out a long time the night before, her voice was still a little hoarse. Moreover, her whole body was feeling sore and weak, so even her protestations sounded soft and sweet.
Not to mention that her small face was red, her peach blossom eyes were dark and lustrous, and the corners of her eyes were a little red, as if her tears were about to fall.
It did not deter him at all.
A faint smile appeared on Lu Huaiyu’s face.
“Well, it doesn’t matter even if you forget. You’ll have plenty of opportunities to learn in the future. You’ll be able to remember it after you do it a few more times.”
“…”
She realized that it had been a huge mistake for her to try to compete with him in this aspect.
She took a deep breath and glared at him.
“You did that on purpose!”
It was not a question, but an affirmation.
Although her alcohol tolerance was very low, after having drunk it a few times, she would not become drunk now from just one drink unless the alcohol content was too high.
How could Lu Huaiyu not know that?
But yesterday, he had even pretended to say… f𝐫𝑒𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧૦𝘃𝗲l.c𝚘𝘮
...
“Didn’t I only let you drink one cup?”
Lu Huaiyu smiled and hugged her as he kissed her on the lips.
“Does your head still hurt badly?”
In fact, after the initial period, it was not that painful anymore.
However, she was still unable to accept it for the moment, so she could only keep silent as she blushed.
Lu Huaiyu knew her too well, including her alcohol tolerance.
Seeing her like this, he immediately understood the general situation.
He cupped her face and chuckled.
“You can drink and forget at any other time, but on this day… you can’t.”
It took Shen Li a while to understand what he meant, and her eyes slowly widened.
In other words, this man had deliberately let her drink until she was somewhere between being half-drunk and half-alert!
...
She had been drunk, but not completely unconscious.
She had been sober, but the fine line between being sober and drunk had gradually been eroded.
He pressed his forehead against hers, his scorching breath falling upon her. His voice was even lower as he laughed and coaxed, “Actually, I was a little drunk yesterday too.”
Shen Li placed both her hands on his chest. She did not believe a single word that this man said.
“It’s true,” said Lu Huaiyu sincerely.
“You should know how much I drank.”
Only then did Shen Li cast a dubious look upon him.
Lu Huaiyu had indeed drunk a lot yesterday.
Even though he had not looked drunk at all, it was impossible to say that he had not been affected at all after drinking so much.
He had been in high spirits last night.
Seeming to have thought of something, Shen Li blushed even more furiously. She turned her head away and refused to look at him.
She was still not mentally prepared to face this man in the usual manner after what had happened the night before.
Lu Huaiyu knew that she was easily embarrassed, so he caressed her waist with one hand.
“Do you want me to give you a massage?”
How could this be something that she could recover from with just a simple massage?
She was even more embarrassed.
“Well, why didn’t you just treat me more gently?!”
Lu Huaiyu thought about it seriously for a moment.
“That’s a little difficult.”
“…”
Another memory assailed her and her little face scrunched up.
“I still have to go back to the Lu family home today!”
Lu Huaiyu knew what she was worried about. He gave her a peck on her soft cheek to comfort her before gathering her up in his arms.
She wanted to struggle, but she did not have any strength left, so she could only let him do as he pleased.
As Lu Huaiyu held her in his arms, his eyes swept over her neck.
“There shouldn’t be any problems.”
He carried her to the bathroom and raised his chin.
“Isn’t it?”
Shen Li looked into the mirror.
The girl in the mirror had red cheeks, bright eyes, and a few red marks on her neck.
However, compared to the marks he had made in the past, it was much more restrained. She should be able to cover it with some concealer.
Although Lu Huaiyu had gone crazy yesterday, he still cared about her the most. Knowing that she still had to meet people the next day, he had been particularly careful in this area.
However, further down…
She immediately covered it and gritted her teeth.
“Lu Huaiyu!”
This man was never willing to suffer losses. If he let go of one place, he would naturally take it back elsewhere.
In fact, the further down she looked, the worse it was.
Not only had he gotten back his capital, but the interest had doubled.
Lu Huaiyu helped her lift the straps of her nightdress, but the two thin shoulder straps hung on her slender shoulders, making her look very helpless.
He hugged her and coaxed her for a while. He helped her brush her teeth, wash her face, and fed her. Only then was he done coaxing her.
…
The Lu family home.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was joyous and harmonious.
A thought suddenly came to Old Master Lu’s mind and chuckled, “By the way, Ah Li, do you remember the prize I won on Weibo? Have you thought of where you would like to go?”
He was talking about the family luxury tour.
Shen Li paused and looked up at Fang Yunyi, who was sitting with her back straight.
“Not yet.”
Old Master Lu said excitedly, “I’ve thought of a few places! How was Bai City? Although you’ve been there before, it was all for fashion week and so on. You probably didn’t have the time to enjoy the place. It’s a good opportunity now… Oh right, I heard that you have a few wineries over there as well?”
Old Master Lu was quite fond of drinking, and he was a little excited at the mention of this.
“Since everyone will be with yoou, especially Huaiyu, you can train your alcohol tolerance!”
Shen Li started coughing.
