At this moment, Shan Yue looked at Zhou Xuan’s figure and had an inexplicable feeling that she had not seen this scene in more than ten years.
Shan Yue took a few steps forward and gently pulled Zhou Xuan’s sleeve with one hand. She leaned to his ear and said softly, “Don’t drink so much either. There are so many people taking turns to toast you. How can you withstand it alone?”
“It’s okay. You don’t have to worry about such a small matter.” Zhou Xuan patted Shan Yue’s hand and said in a gentle voice, “It’s just a few glasses of wine. Even if I can’t drink anymore, I can’t let a girl like you drink with them.”
At this moment, an extremely bold idea suddenly appeared in Zhou Xuan’s mind. Although this was something he had never done before, the endless anticipation in his heart still made Zhou Xuan firm his mind.
After Zhou Xuan clinked glasses with everyone, they exchanged a few simple pleasantries before leaving one after another.
Shan Yue’s sharp eyes could tell that Zhou Xuan was holding on. Shan Yue helped him to his seat. She saw that his cheeks were already slightly flushed, and even his eyes were no longer as lively as usual. Instead, they were more dazed.
“How are you, Zhou Xuan?” Shan Yue took the hot water from the table and poured a glass for Zhou Xuan. “If you can’t drink that much, just reject it. There’s no need to block the alcohol for me. Now, you’ve even drunk too much.”
“I’m… I’m fine.” Zhou Xuan waved his hand casually, but his movements seemed a little tired. “I’m fine. I’m not drunk at all.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Shan Yue became even more convinced. Usually, drunk people said that they were not drunk. Then, Zhou Xuan’s breathing became even more rapid, and his body slowly leaned against Shan Yue.
Shan Yue looked down. Zhou Xuan’s cold side profile was hidden by a few strands of long hair, making him look especially distinct, giving off the feeling of a dream lover.
At this moment, the alcohol in Zhou Xuan’s body had already begun to take effect. The blush on his face gradually deepened, and his eyes slowly closed, entering a dormant state. His thin lips were slightly open, looking very tempting.
If anyone else saw this scene, it would probably make the headlines the next day. Zhou Xuan, who had always been famous for his coldness, would actually snuggle into a girl’s arms, like a child.
Suddenly, a murmur sounded from Zhou Xuan’s mouth. Perhaps it was because his voice was a little soft, or perhaps it was because of the alcohol that he could not speak clearly, so Shan Yue did not hear what he said.
“What did you just say?” Shan Yue let Zhou Xuan’s head rest between her shoulder and head. She stroked him gently with one hand and asked, “Let’s talk slowly. There’s no hurry.”
Zhou Xuan slowly opened his lips and said softly, “Shan Yue, I love you.”
Zhou Xuan’s voice was very soft, and even his volume could not be heard clearly by the two of them, there was only a humming sound coming from his mouth. However, Shan Yue’s hearing and insight were incomparable to ordinary people. No matter how soft one’s voice was, as long as she captured every tone, she could connect them completely.
When she heard this, waves surged in her heart. It was as if wild flowers had bloomed and a deer was beating wildly. Sweet feelings instantly surged in her heart.
But even so, Shan Yue’s expression did not change at all.
Perhaps she had deliberately suppressed her emotions, or perhaps it was her occupational illness for so many years. In short, she would rarely let others understand her heart.
“What did you say? I still didn’t hear you clearly just now?” This sentence was blurted out like Shan Yue’s instinct, without any thought.
Even Shan Yue did not understand why she had to ask again when she had clearly heard Zhou Xuan’s words. However, she soon had an answer in her heart. This was because when Zhou Xuan firmly chose her, the love he expressed would make her feel very at ease..
