Chapter 85 No Drinking Allowed
Chapter 85 No Drinking Allowed
Lu Yan looked at Shen Ruoyun, his temples throbbing, and finally spoke up, unable to contain himself any longer.
"Don't drink with other people late at night."
Shen Ruoyun turned to look at Lu Yan and chug half a bottle in front of him.
"Why? What's wrong with a man having a few drinks outside?"
After saying that, he turned around and clinked his bottle against the drunkard across from him.
The bottles collided with a crisp clang.
The sound became extremely jarring when it reached Lu Yan's ears.
Lu Yan clenched his fists instantly and said with a gloomy face.
"It doesn't work anyway."
Shen Ruojun didn't take it too seriously and took a skewer of roasted mutton.
I quickly grabbed a piece and started chewing; it smelled amazing.
"Why not? I'm an adult. Didn't you go drinking last time? I had to carry you back."
Upon hearing Shen Ruoyun mention this, Lu Yan's headache worsened.
"I'm different from you."
Shen Ruoyun felt a little uncomfortable sitting and shifted her position.
He casually grabbed a plastic stool for Lu Yan and placed it next to his feet.
He was pondering in his mind what exactly was different about what Lu Yan meant by "different".
After thinking it over, her eyes lit up, and she blurted it out.
"Then I'll go to a bar next time! I'll find a pretty girl to feed me!"
Thinking of this, Shen Ruoyun almost burst out laughing.
"Rough guys are definitely lacking, huh?"
Lu Yan: "..." If he didn't know Shen Ruoyun's personality, he would have thought that she was mocking him.
He raised his hand to rub his temples, feeling a little guilty, and quickly tried to make amends.
"I mean, what if you run into bad guys?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Ruoyun paused slightly.
He picked up a string of small, delicate items from the plate, his expression still somewhat serious.
Lu Yan felt that the other party had taken his words to heart and was about to give a few more instructions.
Before he could even speak, Shen Ruoyun spoke up.
"If I encounter a bad guy, I'll rob him of his money and use it to buy alcohol!"
Lu Yan's lips twitched a few times, completely silenced by Shen Ruoyun's barrage of attacks.
Fortunately, the young man opposite him suddenly stood up, albeit unsteadily.
"Brother... I can't make it today. I have to go to work tomorrow. Let's meet up another time."
"Oh, by the way, I've already paid the bill. Enjoy your drink."
After saying that, he staggered away, clutching a half-empty bottle of beer in his hand.
Shen Ruoyun withdrew her gaze, turned to look at Lu Yan, and patted the red plastic stool.
"Please sit down! What would you like to eat? Tell the owner to add more!"
Lu Yan obediently sat down, glanced at the barbecue, but had no appetite.
Shen Ruoyun didn't notice his expression and reached out to grab a handful of pig whips, placing them in Lu Yan's hand.
"Eat more of this, the proprietress says it's good for your kidneys! Don't waste such good stuff!"
After saying that, Shen Ruoyun took a skewer of beef and started eating it.
Lu Yan looked at the kebab in his hand, unsure how to defend himself.
Turning his head, he looked at Shen Ruoyun, who was enjoying her skewers with great relish.
Looking at the other person's greasy lips, his Adam's apple bobbed a few times.
Shen Ruoyun looked up and saw it, looking at the beef skewers in her hand.
"Would you like to eat this? I'll ask the owner to grill some for you?"
Lu Yan rarely eats these kinds of things. Looking at Shen Ruoyun's face, he said, "I'll just eat what you have."
Shen Ruoyun paused for a moment, looking at Lu Yan with a somewhat surprised expression.
But he quickly regained his composure and handed over the skewers he was holding.
"Tsk... Fine, as long as you don't mind my saliva."
Shen Ruoyun glanced at Lu Yan's handsome face.
It's said that if two people eat each other's saliva, they will start to look more and more alike.
If that's the case...
Lu Yan took the skewer and took a bite, finding the taste surprisingly good, while Shen Ruoyun continued to enjoy her meal.
After the two had eaten their fill, they headed home.
Lu Yan escorted Shen Ruoyun to the hotel, carrying the fried noodles that Shen Ruoyun had asked him to pack.
"I'll head back now. I'll treat you to something sometime...uh..."
"Hot pot," Lu Yan replied naturally.
Shen Ruoyun scratched the back of her head awkwardly, suddenly feeling a little embarrassed.
He waved to Lu Yan, then turned and went into the hotel.
On set....
Inside the palace, chaos had already broken out.
The palace maids and eunuchs, as if they had lost their minds, rushed into the various palaces and halls, frantically looting the treasures.
Sharp, piercing screams rose and fell, and the sound of chaotic footsteps echoed throughout the palace.
The strong smell of gunpowder came with the wind and poured straight into the Da Yuan Imperial Palace.
The drums pounded in my ears, almost piercing my eardrums.
Gao Hao was seen holding a long sword, followed by several bodyguards.
Crimson blood flowed down the sword and dripped onto the ground with a soft, pattering sound.
"Your Majesty! We must leave immediately, the rebels are about to attack!"
A guard standing next to Gao Hao wiped the blood from his forehead and anxiously offered his advice.
Gao Hao's chest heaved violently, and his eyes turned bloodshot.
He turned abruptly, his voice low, and asked, "Have all the princes been sent out of the palace?"
The guards quickly answered in unison.
"Your Majesty, all the princes have been safely settled in Yan City. Please rest assured!"
Gao Hao pressed further: "What about the others? Have they all been dealt with?"
Upon hearing the emperor's question, the guards exchanged bewildered glances.
After a slight hesitation, he stammered in response.
"Your Majesty, all the ladies and concubines in the palace have been dealt with according to the imperial decree."
Even those in the Cold Palace have all been dealt with.
Upon hearing this, Gao Hao's expression immediately softened.
He turned his head and gave the order in an urgent tone.
"Where is Zijian? Quickly go and bring him to me!"
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the guards all lowered their heads.
His gaze darted away, not daring to meet Gao Hao's eyes at all.
"Go now! What are you standing there for?!"
At this moment, the head of the guards stepped forward and said loudly.
"Your Majesty, this trip is not for sightseeing; how can we bring Young Master Qin along?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the guard raised his head and looked directly at Gao Hao.
There wasn't a trace of fear in his eyes.
