Chapter 345 - Wake up (1/2)
Song Yunjia came down from the second floor.
Shao Tianze was sitting on the leather sofa in the living room on the first floor. When he heard someone coming downstairs, he turned his eyes to the stairs.
As expected, it was Song Yunjia who was coming downstairs.
He had a servant to pour him a cup of coffee.
Seeing him drinking coffee, the expression in Song Yunjia’s eyes changed slightly. She walked gently to the wine cabinet and extracted a bottle of Lafite made in 1982.
“If you are upset, then liquor serves better than coffee. Let me accompany you.”
She brought over two goblets.
Then she opened the wine and poured it into the goblet in front of Shao Tianze.
Then she poured some wine into the goblet in front of her as well.
Seeing her gentle motion of pouring wine, Shao Tianze felt that he paid so little attention to her that he even ignored her beautiful posture while pouring wine.
“Why don’t you sleep this late at night?”
“I was going to sleep after you had left. But a servant told me that you are back, so I couldn’t fall asleep.”
She picked up her goblet and proposed a toast to him, “Cheers! I’ll empty my gla.s.s first.”
Shao Tianze picked up his goblet and clinked hers.
Song Yunjia drank all the wine in her goblet at one draft.
Song Yunjia could hold her alcohol. When she first worked as a doctor, everything went so smoothly. However, every time she performed an operation, she still felt squeamish on seeing blood, flesh, and internal organs.
She felt terrified. In order to overcome it, she began to drink alcohol.
Later, when she got used to performing operations, she rid herself of boosting her courage by drinking alcohol.
But she could still hold her alcohol.
After having finished the wine in her goblet, she intended to continue pouring wine into her goblet.
This time, as soon as she reached for the goblet, she touched something.
It turned out that she touched Shao Tianze’s fingers holding the goblet.
She was slightly taken aback and withdrew her fingers in hindsight.
A flicker of panic appeared in her eyes while joy and happiness stayed at the bottom of her eyes.
Everyone knew the old saying- love develops with time. But during these many years with Shao Tianze, Song Yunjia had always been claiming to be Shao Tianze’s friend without crossing the line.
But now, after the night.
She had such a relations.h.i.+p with him. It was actually like breaking a paper window, which brought them closer at once.
She felt a little happy, watching Shao Tianze pour the wine into her goblet.
However, she wore an indifferent face without showing happiness in her heart.
After having finished two goblets of wine in succession, she slowly began to talk. She asked Shao Tianze, “Did Changle… make trouble with you?”
“You know her temper and personality. How could she not make a fuss when something like this happened?”
Shao Tianze was somewhat vexed.
He liked Gu Changle and was willing to connive at anything she did. But on the matter of her hurting Song Yunjia, he could not pamper her, no matter what.
He had explained to her, but she wouldn’t listen.
He had no other way but to leave her by herself for now.
Perhaps she would have understood how important Song Yunjia had been to them after some time.
He drank one gla.s.s of wine after another.
Seeing that he had drunk too much, Song Yunjia couldn’t help grabbing his arm and advised him, “Even though you are in a bad mood, you shouldn’t drink like this. It’s not good for your health.”
“It doesn’t matter, I don’t drink often,” he said, removing her hand which was grabbing his arm. Then he picked up the bottle and poured some wine into her goblet, “Didn’t you say that you wanted to drink with me? Can you drink more?”
“Yes,” said Song Yunjia, reaching for the goblet in his hand. Then she said, “I will drink with you as long as you want to drink.”
Hearing Song Yunjia’s words, he curled his lips, and the appreciation in his eyes grew much stronger than it was just now.
He drank the goblet of wine and began to murmur, “You should know that Changle can’t drink any alcohol because of her physical condition. So I don’t drink at home. Changle often reminds me to drink less in social intercourses and I always listen to her. But why didn’t she listen to me when I offered her advice for the first time?”
Shao Tianze must have been drunk as he talked so much at one time.
Seeing that he was drunk, Song Yunjia reached for the goblet in his hand, “You’ve been with Changle for so many years and during which you’ve always been spoiling her. Now the reason that she is so self-willed is probably that you have been too nice to her.”
Now that he was drunk, then when would have been the best time to dramatize Gu Changle’s behavior if not now?
Sure enough, after having recalled his att.i.tude towards Gu Changle all these years, Shao Tianze laughed at himself, “Yunjia, you are right. I’ve been pampering her all these years and conniving at whatever she did. I’ve spoiled her.”
Seeing that he rested the empty goblet on the table, Song Yunjia picked up the bottle and poured him another goblet of wine, “You can totally say that again.”
“So tell me, how should I deal with her?”
Shao Tianze’s question amused Song Yunjia at once, “How to deal with Changle is your own business. I’ve got no good answer to the question.”
“Don’t you have any suggestions?”
Shao Tianze gazed at her.
His eyes, which had once been soft, now appeared quite tipsy.
Song Yunjia felt that there was no need for her to continue urging him to drink.
So she took over the goblet held in his hand and advised, “You’ve drunk enough, and you can’t drink anymore. Let me help you upstairs to have a rest.”
She rested the goblet on the table and was going to help him up.
However, just at the time she was going to help him up, he did something that surprised her.
With a thrust of his hand, he pulled her back onto the sofa. Then he turned over slightly and sat on top of her, taking a dominating position.
His eyes, which were full of intoxication, were fixed on her, “You haven’t told me how to deal with Changle yet.”
Being pinned by him on the sofa, Song Yunjia felt her heartbeats quickened when seeing his face.
“How should you deal with Changle?”
She asked in reply.
“Yep.” he nodded.
Song Yunjia remained silent, and she slightly lowered her eyelashes.
Shao Tianze kept gazing at her like this without even blinking once, looking really serious and charming.
Song Yunjia curled up her lips and looked him in the eye, “You’ve always been pampering her, so she is self-willed. If you stop pampering her, she’ll probably not be self-willed any more.”
“Not pampering her?”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
Song Yunjia nodded and felt quite satisfied with her answer.
