Chapter 1062: Riding the Wind and Asking the Moon (147)
“You want to go back to the Xu family like this? Let the elders of the Xu family see? Let them know that you went out and got drunk a few days after your grandfather passed away?”Xu Chengfeng completely ignored her unreasonable words.””I haven’t even held you accountable for running out to drink, and you dare to question me?”
Zuo Yue glared at him. What right do you have to control me!”
“You don’t want me to care about your boycotts? Don’t drink and cause so much trouble. Hasn’t the Xu family been very peaceful these few days? Wouldn’t it be good to continue like this? Time will be the best antidote. Why do you have to force yourself to this point?”Xu Chengfeng looked at him seriously.” Zuo Yue, this is the last time I’m going to fool around with you. When we return to the Xu family tomorrow, you’ll explain your whereabouts to your mother. I won’t interfere in your affairs anymore.””
After saying that, Xu Chengfeng turned around decisively as if he did not intend to spare any face.
Zuo Yue stood stiffly behind the sofa, one hand on the back of the sofa to support her body from falling down. When she heard Xu Chengfeng’s footsteps, she did not turn back, but her hand quietly tightened on the sofa.
“You’re only willing to come back after Grandpa passes away. What if I’m about to die? If I’m about to die too, will you come back to see me?”She did not know if Xu Chengfeng had heard her, so she lowered her head and muttered to herself.
“Didn’t you say that you don’t want to be a burden to me anymore?” Xu Chengfeng stopped in his tracks. And how dangerous it is to be by my side? Since he said that he wanted to let go, why was he still talking so much nonsense now?”
Zuo Yue chuckled.” That’s right. I’m just like that. I say I’ll let go, but I’m not willing to let go in my heart. In the end, some people leave so easily, as if we’ll never see each other again. Why do I still remember such a heartless person?””
Zuo Yue was extremely dizzy. She forced herself to stand by the sofa, took a deep breath, and suddenly turned around.””So since you can be so heartless, why do you care if I drink or not today? Even if I return to the Xu family in this state, it’s my own business to be scolded by the elders of the Xu family and scolded by my mother.”
As she spoke, she lifted her hand from the back of the sofa and walked towards the door with her weak steps.
Xu Chengfeng suddenly turned to look at her. He saw that she had tried so hard to maintain her composure for so many days, but in the end, she still revealed her stubborn temper after being drunk. He simply turned around and walked over to grab her wrist.
Zuo Yue stumbled into his arms and struggled to the side.
Xu Chengfeng did not hug her forcefully. He merely lowered his eyes and looked at her with an extremely cold and distant gaze. He warned,”This is the mountainous villa area in the northern suburbs of Los Angeles. There are no taxis around here at this time, and I won’t send you back drunk. If you’re not afraid of an accident, just leave.”
Zuo Yue turned to glare at him, but Xu Chengfeng had already put his hand away expressionlessly.
“Xu Chengfeng, how did you do it?”Zuo Yue looked at him in a daze.” How did you manage to be so gentle and passionate before you left? How did you manage to be so cold and heartless after you left?””
“Keep your distance and maintain your rationality. This is the best outcome.”Xu Chengfeng looked at her calmly.” I will make a mistake once, but I will never make a mistake a second time.””
Zuo Yue stood rooted to the ground in a daze. Xu Chengfeng turned around to pour some water and placed it on the coffee table.””There’s no hangover medicine prepared here. When the water is no longer hot, drink a few more glasses to dilute the wine in your stomach and rest early.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Chengfeng brushed past her with a cold face and walked inside.

The next morning, Zuo Yue woke up with a terrible headache. She sat up with her head in her hands and looked at the unfamiliar bedroom again. She did not have a clear impression of what happened last night, but she could still vaguely remember it.
She seemed to have drunk a lot, and then John Junior used her phone to call Xu Chengfeng.
