Chapter 484 - Who Is Jingjing? (2/2)

“I’ll ask someone to send you back.” He Xiaosheng is a bit dizzy as well with a blushed face, looking pretty. She continues, “I haven’t had a drink for a long time. It is rare for us to get together today. We must enjoy ourselves.”

“Even if it’s a rare gathering, we can’t get drunk!” Li Yong has never been persuaded to drink wine by a woman.

“There’s half a bottle of wine left. Drink it up and we will stop drinking,” After saying that, He Xiaosheng also pours herself a full glass of wine, “Yong, do you know that when I first met Dahu, she was a stray dog and dirty all over her body. She even had a skin disease. And when I picked her up, she was in tears…”

Thus, they talk about dogs and their work. In the end, they talk about medicinal skills.

After finishing talking about all these, they find another unique topic and talk about each other’s childhoods.

Only then does He Xiaosheng learn that Li Yong is an orphan and hasn’t found his mom and dad up to now. He Xiaosheng sympathizes with Li Yong and looks even sadder than him, saying that she will help him find his parents.

Li Yong is touched, because no one has ever said that they will help him find his parents, and nobody has even given him the confidence that he will surely find them. He also realizes that no matter how powerful he is because of his practicing, he is craving confidence and encouragement deep inside.

The meal lasts for more than two hours, and the atmosphere is always harmonious. However, when Li Yong drunkenly asks about He Xiaosheng’s former family, unexpectedly, He Xiaosheng suddenly rests her head and arms on the dining table and cries in a muffled way.

Li Yong isn’t even sad when he says that he is an orphan, and He Xiaosheng busts out in tears without saying anything, which is a surprise.

Seeing that He Xiaosheng’s shoulders are twitching and she is sobbing in a low voice, Li Yong blames himself for asking an inappropriate question. He is at a loss for words, wondering how to advise her. After a moment of hesitance, he stands up and comes to He Xiaosheng’s side swaggeringly. Even so, he still doesn’t know what to do.

He realizes that he is drunk. And because he is drunk, he isn’t even thinking straight.

He is usually so good at coaxing women. But now, he doesn’t know what to say.

He opens his mouth and finally says, “Ms. He, don’t be sad.” Because he is afraid of accidentally saying something wrong again. If he asked He Xiaosheng why she was crying, He Xiaosheng probably would cry even harder.

Raising his hand, he hesitates for a moment before gently placing his hand on He Xiaosheng’s head and patting it.

He Xiaosheng doesn’t reply. She just raises her head and says tearfully, “Yong, thank you for coming over to eat with me. I want Jingjing (Chinese Pinyin, it means to be left alone).”

“Who’s Jingjing? I’ll call her over for you,” Li Yong says anxiously.

“Pfft.” He Xiaosheng, who was originally in tears, suddenly bursts into laughter. She is amused by Li Yong’s humor.

But Li Yong is confused and sighs inwardly, “This woman is crying for no reason and laughing even more strangely.”

It turns out that Li Yong has said a joke because he is anxious and doesn’t even realize it at this time.

He Xiaosheng said that she wanted Jingjing, it meant that she just wanted to be alone. The Jingjing here is not a human at all.

But Li Yong treats Jingjing as a person, a female, and he even thinks of helping He Xiaosheng to call her over.

After such a joke, He Xiaosheng wipes away her tears and gets up to walk to the living room. However, as soon as she stands up, she almost falls as her body shakes abruptly. Without realizing it, she is almost as drunk as hell.

Li Yong can’t just stand by and watch her fall to the ground. Although he is drunk too, he is far soberer than He Xiaosheng. He takes a step forward and reaches out to hold He Xiaosheng’s arm. And with a little effort, he helps her up. He notices that He Xiaosheng’s pretty face is pretty red. He doesn’t know if it is because he has helped her or she is drunk.

Li Yong, who is in panic, touches a part of He Xiaosheng’s body by accident, which he shouldn’t have touched, as he helps her up. And he feels that something soft is in his hand, which he finds so elastic, making him go excited and his blood surges. He is tempted to squeeze it. And yet he says solemnly, “Ms. He, slow down in case you will be tripped over.”

“It’s fine. I’m fine,” While saying so, He Xiaosheng is leaning on Li Yong’s arm as if she doesn’t even have the strength to stand up at all. Especially after Li Yong squeezes her, she suddenly becomes weak in the legs and her body slides straight down. Seeing that she is about to sit on the floor, Li Yong has to pick her up in his arms and prepare to find a place to give her acupuncture.

“Ms. He, I’ll help you with the acupuncture to relieve the alcohol,” Li Yong says softly.

After a moment, He Xiaosheng replies softly, “Good.” Her voice is so low as that of a fly’s humming. But Li Yong, who has sensitive ears, can hear her voice as long as she makes sounds.

“Where is your room? I have to put you down before I can do it!”

However, at that moment, He Xiaosheng suddenly coughs and makes a gesture to throw up badly, scaring Li Yong.

If He Xiaosheng threw it up on his body, he would be in trouble. Anyway, he can’t just leave He Xiaosheng on the floor because of her throwing up! But if he holds her in his arms, he’ll get the vomits all over his body.

Li Yong secretly sighs, “She obviously can’t drink. Why does she drink so much? Isn’t she asking for trouble by doing so?”

Looking around, Li Yong is confused that all the household servants have hidden far away from them and no one comes over at all.
