Chapter 85 – Drunk The Evil Prince and his Precious Wife The Sly Lady (1/2)
Murong Xue walked towards the carriage moodily, just as she was putting down the curtains in her carriage. She saw a stroller being pushed from the army camp, on top of the stroller was stack of hays with unconscious Murong Ji and depressed Murong Jian on it.
Murong Ji fainted after he was injured, he had to be carried back by carriage. However, there were no carriage that could accommodate people and not a single person were seen around the camp, therefore, they had no choice but to rode on this stroller back to the city.
The striking sun was shining furiously on them, Murong Jian’s injury was serious, he could get heat stroke on his way back.
Murong Xue felt a gush of satisfaction inside when she saw them.
An aromatic scent travelled to her nose, she was awakened by it. She turned around and saw Ou Yang sat by the small table, drinking by himself. The bright sun shone through the window upon him, it smudged out a layer of light on his shadow, hazy, it was an unspeakable beauty.
He poured out another glass of wine using his fair hands, the smell of the wine was fragrant, leaving people wanting more.
Murong Xue felt dryness in her throat, “Ou Yang, is there any tea?” She had not drink a single drop of water since dawn, she was thirsty!
Ou Yang mumbled, “I was in a hurry this morning, there’s no clear water in this carriage, do you want some wine instead?”
“No, thanks.” Murong Xue shook her head as her eyes glanced towards the bottle of wine. She was thirsty, wine could not fulfil her, it would be useless for her to drink it.
The luxurious carriage fled on the rocky road, Murong Xue was bored throughout the journey, she was trying to find something to do when she felt a sift bag beside her.
She looked down and saw a familiar white bag, it was… Ou Yang’s water sack!
Murong Xue took it out and pinched it slightly, there was still half left, it was enough to boil tea, but she could quench her thirst by drinking this.
Murong Xue opened up the sack happily, as the sweet taste touched her lips, she gulped down more and more…
“I thought you did not want the wine? Why are you drinking it like a maniac?” Ou Yang retorted, Murong Xue stopped drinking immediately, “this is… wine?”
“Yeah!” Ou Yang nodded.
Murong Xue was horrified, “why did you put wine in your water sack?” She thought it was pure water, she had gulped down almost everything.
“Who says that I can’t put wine in the water sack?” Ou Yang stared at her and continued, “moreover, wine and water taste dissimilar, a smart person could differentiate it.”
Murong Xue was speechless, “…”
She did not smell and taste any scent of wine, was Ou Yang implying that she was stupid?
Suddenly her head was spinning and her vision went blurry, she could no longer control her body movement, she tried to walk upright, instead her body was swaying from side to side.
“Watch out!” Ou Yang exclaimed as he rushed to hold down her waist, he grabbed the water sack and pinched it, it was almost empty. She drank more than what she could handle, no wonder she was drunk this fast.
Murong Xue’s blushing cheeks stared back at him, he massaged gently on her temples, “are you alright?”
