I was approached by a cat-eared girl.

"If you ask me, I should keep an eye on you. What's so good about drinking?" Wu Yulan spoke up from the side, then looked at Chen Jianwen, "You too, drink less!"

"I won't drink much, just a little bit." Chen Jianwen chuckled, and suddenly felt empathy for Chen Shuo.

"Yes, yes, I'll have a little drink with my dad. How much can he drink from such a small cup?"

Although it was only a little, they sipped slowly from their small wine cups, and before long, more than half of the bottle was gone. Chen Shuo didn't like drinking much, but he drank a little with them, and most of it ended up in Chen Jianwen's stomach. He was flushed from drinking and looked quite happy. He also found Chen Shuo much more agreeable.

Even setting aside the fact that they're both henpecked and share some empathy, at least this kid can drink with me. If it were my son from when he was a child...

I remember when this kid was in kindergarten, I think I fed him half a cup of baijiu (Chinese liquor), and he slept soundly for a whole day.

Useless.

Chen Jianwen curled his lips in disgust, picked up the small wine cup and took a sip. He wanted to pour another cup, but when he reached out, he found nothing. The half-full bottle of wine had already been taken away by Wu Yulan and placed aside. "Eat your food."

"Okay, let's eat."

Seeing this, Chen Shuo also lowered his head to pick up some food, savoring the aroma of the wine in his mouth. Wine costing over a thousand yuan is indeed different.

He clearly hadn't drunk much, but his face looked even redder than Chen Jianwen's.

This is precisely why he doesn't like drinking; alcohol makes his face turn red, like a monkey's bottom, whenever he drinks even a little.

In the past, when I went out to eat with people, a group of them would force me to drink more, claiming that "people who blush when they drink have a high alcohol tolerance." Every time I left the restaurant, I would vomit and feel dizzy. Afterwards, I would tell everyone that I didn't drink and never touched a drop of alcohol.

After finishing his meal, Chen Shuo went to the kitchen to wash the dishes, after all, he was a human dishwasher.

However, he will soon get rid of this title, because Chen Shuo plans to install a dishwasher in the new house to free up his hands. In the future, he will only need to put the dirty dishes in the dishwasher and he will not have to worry about the rest.

very nice.

Envisioning a bright future, Chen Shuo hummed a song as he came out of the kitchen, picked up his down jacket, and gestured with his chin toward Bai Xiaoqi, "Let's go home."

"Ah."

"The ground is slippery due to snow today, please be careful on the road."

"Okay, Auntie."

As they came out of the building, a gust of cold wind hit them, and Chen Shuo tightened the scarf around his neck. He took out his pink cat-themed gloves from his pocket, hung them around his neck, put one hand in them to warm it, and held her hand with the other as they walked slowly forward.

"Next time, just say 'I understand,' Mom, and see how she reacts."

Bai Xiaoqi ignored the topic, stared at him for a moment, and said, "I'm going to punish you when we get home."

"Because I was drinking?" Chen Shuo frowned. "That's not right. I asked you if I could drink, and you said I could."

"It's because you asked me whether I should let you pass that I'm punishing you."

"If you want to find fault, you can always find a reason. I remember you forbidding me from drinking, which is why I asked for your opinion. And now you want to punish me for this? Where is your conscience? Did you eat it?"

"I let you eat it."

Bai Xiaoqi raised her hand and touched her left chest. This was her heart. This guy had just eaten it last night, and with one suck, he had sucked away her conscience.

Then she touched her right breast, where he had eaten last night, and... there too.

She looked down and, recalling last night, seemed to feel that intense stimulation again. She subconsciously bit her lip, and her face suddenly turned red.

Chapter 210 A Rogue at Heart

Just then, a taxi passed by, and Chen Shuo waved it down. The two of them got into the back seat.

"Lianchi Road, Post and Telecommunications Staff Quarters".

After giving the address to the driver in front of him, Chen Shuo turned his head to look and belatedly noticed her strange behavior.

Although half of her face was covered by a scarf, her large, exposed eyes held a hint of bewilderment.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

"..."

Bai Xiaoqi didn't say anything, but simply pulled her scarf up a little, closed her eyes, and leaned on his shoulder.

Chen Shuo turned to look at her, but didn't say anything more. The liquor had a strong aftereffect. Although he hadn't drunk much, the cold wind had made him a little tipsy, so he closed his eyes to rest, but gently held her small hand.

Back home, Bai Xiaoqi kept urging Chen Shuo to take a shower, even though she had said she would punish him on the way.

After taking a shower, Chen Shuo quickly climbed into bed to warm the blankets. After waiting for a long time, he finally got Xiao A Miao to come in.

Chen Shuo pulled her into his arms, his hands instinctively stroking and squeezing her, and suddenly asked, "Do you know what it means to have sex while drunk?"

"Are you trying to cause trouble?"

"Is it okay?" Upon hearing this, Chen Shuo flipped over and pinned her down.

Bai Xiaoqi blinked her eyes as she looked at Chen Shuo's face, which was so close to hers. Even though he had taken a shower, there was still a faint smell of alcohol on him. She sniffed and turned her face away in disgust. "You can try it. I'll kick you down."

"Oh, never mind then." Chen Shuo lay down again, but still said stubbornly, "Although you are strong, you can never kick me down. If you stretch out your leg, I can easily dodge with a slide tackle, and then pin you down in the quilt, hehehe."

But I didn't do that, not because I couldn't, and certainly not because I was afraid of being kicked out by you, but because you're likely to get your period later.

"is it?"

"Yes."

As he spoke, Chen Shuo suddenly slipped his hand inside her waistband to check if she had taken proper precautions and whether her period had started.

"What are you doing?!" Bai Xiaoqi suddenly squeezed her legs together, glaring at him with embarrassment and anger.

"You're pinching my hand." Chen Shuo pulled his hand away a few times before continuing, "Although the sanitary napkin is dry right now, which means your period hasn't come yet, who am I? I'm powerful and capable. What if your period suddenly visits while we're having sex?"

"I won't let you have sex even if you don't have your period."

"Do you think you can control that? Although you are still you, I am no longer myself. Wu Song could kill a tiger when he was drunk. I've also been drinking now. Killing a tiger might be a bit crazy, but subduing a little kitten like you would be a piece of cake."

"You talk too much, go to sleep!"

Bai Xiaoqi didn't want to listen to his rambling anymore. She didn't know if it was because he had been drinking, but she felt that this guy was talking a lot tonight.

She reached out and closed Chen Shuo's eyelids, then leaned forward to turn off the bedside lamp before quickly retreating back into the warm blankets.

The room was plunged into darkness. The two were snuggled together in the warm blankets. Chen Shuo reached out and groped around, then suddenly sighed, "It's a pity you're on your period, otherwise I definitely would have drunkenly taken advantage of you and pinned you down..."

"Go to sleep!"

"Give me a kiss before you sleep." Chen Shuo nuzzled her forehead with his nose.

"No, your breath smells of alcohol."

"I like sweet flavors. Even after drinking alcohol, it will still taste sweet, like eating candy. You should try it if you don't believe me."

As he spoke, Chen Shuo found her delicate pink lips and kissed them.

After a long, passionate kiss, Bai Xiaoqi, her face flushed, pushed him away and gasped, "You're lying, you smell bad, it's all the smell of alcohol."

"That's because our method was wrong. If we keep doing that, you'll taste the sweetness..."

Bai Xiaoqi reached out and covered his mouth, "Hey my ass, you should go to sleep."

This guy's been acting like he's in heat tonight, just going "hehehe" all the time, it's so annoying.

"Actually, I'm just not ready yet, and you said you'd only do it if I agreed." After a moment of silence in the room, she suddenly spoke.

But after waiting for a while, he didn't hear Chen Shuo's reply. When he looked up, he found that Chen Shuo was fast asleep.

"whispering sound..."

Bai Xiaoqi scoffed, "You think you can have sex with someone like that? Drunk and promiscuous? What a load of rubbish."

She snuggled closer to Chen Shuo, the faint smell of alcohol lingering in the air. She sniffed slightly, a hint of disgust in her eyes, then closed her eyes and snuggled even closer before finally falling asleep peacefully.

She smacked her lips a few times, savoring the kiss from before; it really was sweet.

........

January arrived in the blink of an eye, and the renovation, which had lasted for five months, was finally completed. They no longer had to run back and forth every day, and the two of them returned to their previous life of staying at home.

In the cold winter of the twelfth lunar month, as the end of the year approaches, some beautiful colorful flags have been added to the old neighborhood, and some big red lanterns have been hung in conspicuous places, which has unknowingly added a touch of the New Year's atmosphere.

Bai Xiaoqi leaned against the window and looked outside. Although it wasn't the traditional Spring Festival yet, today was New Year's Day, and the calendar had already entered a new year.

Another year has passed.

"Take a break and come back to continue doing your problems."

When an annoying person makes an annoying sound, Bai Xiaoqi pouted and didn't say anything, reluctantly sitting back on the sofa to continue doing her homework.

A little over ten days ago, the two of them made dumplings together to celebrate the Winter Solstice. Five days ago, on Laba Festival, they went out together to buy ingredients and cooked Laba porridge.

Today is New Year's Day. I was doing my math workbook on the coffee table, but Chen Shuo was sitting next to me playing games, his phone clicking away. I felt so sad.

Especially since he was using his own phone and his own game account, right in front of him.

"Why aren't you writing today?" she asked, turning her head.

"Because it's a holiday today, I want to give myself a break."

"Then why can't I have a holiday?"

"I'll let you go after you finish the questions."

Chen Shuo answered casually, controlling Arthur to gallop through the canyon, only to be instantly killed once again. The black and white game interface exuded a sense of solemnity and seriousness.

But his fingers kept moving, tapping away on the screen, as he argued and cursed at his teammates, "Don't you feel it's unfair that you're doing homework while I'm playing games?"

"It was never fair to begin with."

"Then you're wrong. It may look like I'm playing a game, but I'm actually protecting our household registration."

In the game, Arthur revives at the fountain. Chen Shuo controls Arthur, swinging his greatsword and spinning around, engaging in team fights. But after a few seconds, the screen turns black and white again.

The chat box next to him was filled with slang from the "Zu'an" (a derogatory term for people from the Central Plains) and he started typing and cursing back, "I haven't played King of Glory in a long time. I didn't expect the players in this game to be so low-class. They curse at each other all the time when we're just playing a match."

As he spoke, Chen Shuo casually replied with 'sb, nsl', and continued righteously, "Back in our day, we were much more civilized, and we didn't swear much when playing ranked matches."

"..." Bai Xiaoqi didn't speak, but pointed with her pencil at the string of pinyin that Chen Shuo had just replied with. Don't think she didn't know what these pinyin meant; Anya often cursed like that when she played King of Glory.

"Oh, I wasn't swearing, and I wasn't calling anyone an idiot or saying 'your mother is dead.' I was actually typing the English abbreviation: Superboy, he sd libel."

Chen Shuo uttered a string of English words and explained, "It means Superboy, never pay attention to other people's slander and rumors. I'm comforting myself by not paying attention to this teammate's verbal attacks and slander."

As they were talking, their teammates started spouting Zaunian quotes in the chat box, and the battle intensified.

“Look, this person clearly misunderstood just like you.” Chen Shuo raised his hand and replied with a string of pinyin, “wd!”
