Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When Yu Niaoniao heard this, she asked doubtfully.

“Will this work?”

Yu Shi said, “Won’t you know if it works? Even if it doesn’t, you didn’t lose anything. ”

Yu Niaoniao thought about it and agreed.

Even if it didn’t work, she wouldn’t lose anything. If it did, she would profit!

She immediately made a decision to take a gamble.

She took off the coat she had just put on and threw it aside. She strode to the table, picked up the wine pot, and began to pour it directly into her mouth.

Wei Liao was stunned and frowned.

“The concentration of this wine is very high. Aren’t you afraid of getting sick from drinking it like this?”

Yu Niaoniao ignored him.

In the blink of an eye, she had finished the entire pot of wine.

She put down the flask, opened her mouth, and burped, reeking of alcohol.

A thin blush quickly appeared on her originally fair face, and her eyes became misty.

Yu Shi whispered a few instructions to the maidservant.

The maidservant accepted the order and left.

Due to the alcohol, Yu Niaoniao began to feel light-headed and could not stand steadily.

Wei Liao reached out to help her, but he stopped when he was about to touch her body.

Yu Niaoniao reached out and placed her hand on the table to stabilize herself.

She turned to look at Yu Shi and chuckled.

“The wine you have here is quite delicious. Is there more? Give me another pot.’

Yu Shi only wanted her to pretend to be pitiful with wine so that Duke Lang could not let go of her. She did not expect her to be addicted to drinking.

Yu Shi said helplessly, “This is the strongest wine we have here. Just this pot is enough to make you drunk for a day. You can’t drink anymore.”

Yu Niaoniao was unwilling.

“That’s all. I won’t get drunk no matter how much I drink! Back then, when I was in Bashu, I drank white wine like water. The wine in Bashu was really strong. It burned in one mouthful of wine and two mouthfuls of side dishes. It was very strong!”

Seeing that she had already begun to talk incoherently, Yu Shi could not help but worry.

“Do you remember what you’re going to do later?”

Yu Niaoniao said without hesitation, “Of course, I remember. I would just sleep with Duke Lang!”

Yu Shi was speechless.

So was Wei Liao.

Xiao Juan, who had just walked to the door and was about to enter the room, was speechless.

The Eagle Guards following behind Xiao Juan were all speechless.

Heavens! The Princess Consort actually publicly announced that she wanted to sleep with Duke Lang. This was too explosive!

Was this what they could hear? If they could, there was no problem paying!

But then again, the Princess Consort and Duke Lang had been married for almost a year. Shouldn’t they have slept together long ago?

Facing the hot gazes of the people behind him, Xiao Juan instructed without changing his expression.

“Wait outside first.’

The Eagle Guards had no choice but to obey Duke Lang’s orders.

They could only retreat reluctantly with a heart full of gossip.

Xiao Juan pushed open the door and strode into the private room.

He immediately saw Yu Niaoniao standing at the table.

She was wearing men’s clothes and her coat had been thrown aside. Her face, which was not covered in makeup, was already red. Even her nose had turned red. Her small mouth was pouting slightly and she was muttering.

“I told you to bring the wine, so bring it. I won’t get drunk! None of you know what my nickname in Bashu is, right? I won’t get drunk after a thousand glasses! My alcohol tolerance is super good!”

When Yu Shi saw Duke Lang walk in, her face turned pale with fear and she hurriedly knelt down.

“Greetings, Your Highness.”

Wei Liao greeted him lazily, “Good evening, Your Highness. Do you want to sit down and have a drink?”

Xiao Juan did not even look at them and walked past them.

He bent down to pick up the coat that had been thrown to the ground and asked coldly.

“Who undressed her?”

Although he didn’t name him, Wei Liao knew that he was asking him.

Wei Liao deliberately smiled ambiguously. “Guess.”

Xiao Juan put his coat on Yu Niaoniao and pulled out the No Return Saber at his waist. The sharp blade drew a cold arc in the air.

The blade stopped near Wei Liao’s neck.

With just another inch, Wei Liao’s head would be separated from his neck.

Wei Liao stood still, the smile on his face fading.

“Is Duke Lang trying to kill me?”

Yu Shi was afraid that Duke Lang would really kill Wei Liao here.

Wei Liao was the Vice General of the Sky Wolf Guards and the adopted son of the chief eunuch, Wei Huai’en. If anything happened to him in Green Garden, everyone in Green Garden would be implicated.

Yu Shi mustered her courage and explained in a trembling voice.

“Your Highness, you’ve misunderstood. Young Master Yu took off her clothes herself. It has nothing to do with Young Master Wei.”

She thought that if she explained everything clearly, Duke Lang would stop. However, Xiao Juan did not move.

He looked coldly at the man on the other end of the blade and asked coldly.

“You deliberately brought Niaoniao to a place like this. What are you thinking of doing to her?”

Wei Liao said disdainfully, “What do you think I can do to her? She’s just a silly woman. I was just teasing her when I had nothing to do.”

“It better be.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Juan sheathed his saber.

He took Yu Niaoniao’s hand and whispered.

“Let’s go home.”

Yu Niaoniao tilted her head and looked at him. “Who are you?”

Xiao Juan frowned. “Don’t you even recognize me?”

Yu Niaoniao leaned over and stared at his face up close. Finally, she recognized him.

“It’s you! My baby, why are you so late? I’ve been waiting for you for a long time!”

With that, she plunged into Xiao Juan’s arms and pressed her face against his chest. She rubbed against him hard, and her two small arms wrapped around his waist and hugged him tightly. Updat𝒆d fr𝒐m nov𝒆lb(i)n.c(o)m

Xiao Juan’s body immediately became extremely stiff, and he did not know how to release his limbs.

He subconsciously stood up straight, his muscles tense.

“Let go of me first.”

Instead of letting go, Yu Niaoniao hugged him tighter.

“No, no, I don’t want to leave you.”

She was clearly very drunk.

Xiao Juan knew that drunkards could not be reasoned with.

He could only press on Yu Niaoniao’s wrist and use a little force.

Yu Niaoniao felt her wrist ache and numb and subconsciously let go.

Xiao Juan took the opportunity to retreat.

Seeing that Yu Niaoniao was about to pounce on him again, he picked her up horizontally.

“Don’t move.”

Xiao Juan said in a low voice, then carried Yu Niaoniao and strode out.

Yu Shi waited until they were far away before she dared to stand up.

She pressed her chest and heaved a long sigh of relief. Amitabha. Fortunately, Duke Lang did not start a massacre here. Green Garden had escaped tonight.

Yu Shi turned to look at Wei Liao, only to see him staring fixedly in the direction Duke Lang and Yu Niaoniao had left.

Usually, he would always smile and scold others, not taking anything to heart. However, at this moment, he actually looked a little lonely.

Yu Shi had read countless people, so she could not help but make a guess.

But she knew Wei Liao’s personality.

There were some things that Yu Niaoniao could say, but she could not.

Therefore, she did not dare to say a word and silently retreated..
