Chapter 51 Drinking wine

Ban You got off the carriage in a daze. You'an Hall was still as lively as usual.

Today, You'antang has become one of the most popular stores in Yuncheng. The store is bustling with people coming and going every day.

The guys were busy running around, and Xiaobao would follow Li Yiyi to help when he took a break occasionally. Everyone seemed to like their peaceful life very much.

But for Ban You, such peace has never belonged to her. Even if Zhou Heng didn't mention going to the capital today, she would go there one day. But when to go, Ban You never thought about it.

"Host, what's wrong with you?"

The system sensed Ban You's emotional changes and appeared in time.

"I'm fine, just... a little sad. I feel like I'll have to leave here one day, but... they probably won't leave. In the end, I'll still be alone, only me."

"Oh, host, don't think like that. You still have me and those little animals. We will always be with you."

"Thank you, System," Ban You said, his voice choking. "If it weren't for you, I would probably still be immersed in the matter of Fuzi's death and unable to let it go for a long time."

When mentioning Fuzi's death, the system stuttered rarely.

"Host...don't...don't mention this. It's all in the past."

Immersed in the sadness of parting, Ban You did not notice anything unusual in the system and continued to grieve on his own.

Li Yiyi in the room glanced outside the door and saw Ban You standing at the door.

She quickly walked forward with a smile: "Sister, you are back, several customers are waiting for you to come back!"

Ban You took a deep breath, smiled, walked into the house and greeted the advisors who were waiting for her.

The days passed uneventfully. Apart from seeing patients, Ban You spent his days thinking about the conditions Zhou Heng mentioned.

A few days passed, and Ban You still didn't give Zhou Heng an answer.

That night, Ban You sat under the osmanthus tree in the courtyard of You'an Hall, looking up at the moon.

There is a full moon tonight. The round moon hangs high in the sky, emitting white light.

She was drinking alone. The wine was the Su Zixiao that she had bought at the winery in the evening. It was not strong in alcohol but very fragrant.

She poured a glass of wine and drank it all in one gulp, with all she could think about was what Zhou Heng had said that day.

marry……

In fact, she had never thought about getting married. Since she came here, all she thought about was how to make money, how to make herself rich, and how to complete her mission and leave here.

But if she gets married, it means that she has real ties with this place, she may have her own children, and countless unknown troubles will be waiting for her.

In this place where men are superior to women, she has to share her husband with others.

Ban You never believed in being faithful to one person. In her opinion, the person who loves you only belongs to you at the moment he loves you. And when he loves you is entirely up to him.

She has to make a choice between her future and Xue Zhao's future.

Ban You drank a pot of wine in annoyance and felt a little dizzy.

This wine doesn't feel like much when you drink it, but it has a strong aftertaste.

After a while, Ban You leaned on the table, her hand against her forehead, feeling a little dizzy. But her mind was clear, replaying every detail of her and Zhou Heng over and over again.

"I want to do business with Miss Ban."

"If you want to find it, I'll accompany you!"

"Miss Ban is so shameless, staring at me for a long time, could it be that she really has a crush on me?"

"If you don't want the light to hurt your eyes, just bury yourself in my arms."

"Marry me."

……

Ban You thought about these things and couldn't understand. Although she and Zhou Heng had many interactions, they always kept their distance. How could it be related to marriage?

"Hiss, so annoying..."

"Miss Ban, why are you drinking here alone without anyone to accompany you?"

When Ban You heard the voice, he slowly turned around to look at the person who came.

Zhou Heng slowly walked towards her, squatted beside her, took the wine jug from her hand, and sighed when he saw her drunken appearance. "Want more to drink?" Zhou Heng's tone was gentle, his voice low and hoarse.

Ban You's mind slowed down when she heard his words. After a moment, she nodded hesitantly, "I want to drink."

Zhou Heng lowered his head and chuckled, sat on the chair next to her, poured her a glass of wine, and then poured himself a glass.

"I toast to the class girl."

"Mr. Zhou... you have a good alcohol tolerance. Cheers!"

Ban You picked up the wine glass and drank it all. Zhou Heng looked at her and wanted to say something, but he didn't say it in the end. He just kept pouring her wine.

After an unknown amount of time, Ban You waved his hand and said, "No more drinking, no more drinking. I'm going to vomit if I drink any more."

Zhou Heng then stopped pouring the wine and looked at Ban You, who was lying unconscious on the table. He muttered to himself, "Is marrying me really that difficult for you?"

A drunk person naturally wouldn't respond to him.

Zhou Heng drank the remaining wine in the pot in one gulp, stood up, picked up Ban You in his princess arms and went to the side room.

The next morning, Ban You rubbed his head and slowly opened his eyes.

"Hiss, how did I get back?" Ban You shook his heavy head and walked out in a daze.

In the yard, Zhou Heng was sitting on a chair with a bowl of hot chicken porridge and a few side dishes on the table.

"Are you up? Then come over for breakfast."

When Ban You saw Zhou Heng, his confused mind instantly became much clearer.

She widened her eyes, pointed at Zhou Heng, and stammered, "When...when did you come?"

"No! Didn't I lock the door? How did you get in?!"

Ban You said this while looking at his clothes. They were still the same clothes he wore yesterday, neatly dressed, but the smell of alcohol was so strong that Ban You wrinkled his nose.

"Eat first, and I'll tell you after you finish." Zhou Heng pointed to the porridge on the table.

Ban You walked over hesitantly. She smelled a fragrance when she just woke up and was wondering what it was. Now when she saw the porridge, she knew the answer.

His stomach was protesting from the hangover, but Ban You didn't say anything more. He picked up the bowl and drank most of it.

After eating a bowl of hot porridge, Banyou's stomach felt much better.

She wiped her mouth and looked at Zhou Heng: "So when did you come? How did you get in? What are you doing here?"

"Miss Ban, at least I know some Qinggong skills. A simple task like climbing over a wall shouldn't be a problem for me."

"As for when I came?" Zhou Heng said these words, leaning forward and looking directly at Ban You. "Could it be that Miss Ban has forgotten what happened last night?"

"Last night?" Ban You thought about it for a while, but couldn't remember anything.

"What happened last night? Could it be that we..." Ban You was stunned. She quickly looked at her clothes again. They were neatly dressed and apart from a headache, she didn't feel any discomfort anywhere.

Ban You looked up at Zhou Heng suspiciously, and only when she saw Zhou Heng teasing her did she react.

"You! So why are you here?" Ban You was a little annoyed.

"Of course I want to ask Miss Ban if she has figured it out. Do you want to marry me or keep Tianhu?"

It's this problem again. Ban You has been troubled by this problem these days.

"I...I haven't thought about it yet."

Zhou Heng saw Ban You hesitating, and thought of how she got drunk last night because of this matter, and sighed in his heart.

"There's no rush, but there's something I need to tell Miss Ban." Zhou Heng said, his expression gradually becoming serious. "I'm going to take Tianhu to Taohua Mountain next month. I hope Miss Ban will be prepared. I'll be here to pick her up soon."

"Next month?" Ban You was stunned. "Why so sudden?"

"The situation is urgent. There is a unclear dispute in the court regarding the Jade Buddha..." Zhou Heng said this and then stopped.

"It's better for you not to know about this. All you need to know is that I'm going to take the Sky Fox away soon."

Ban You said nothing, just looked at Zhou Heng.
