Li Changle looked speechlessly at this woman. How could someone with such poor alcohol tolerance dare to drink?
"This is liquor, it's spicy, didn't you forget when you were drinking just now..."
Li Changle tried to fool Wang Siyi, who seemed to be genuinely contemplating whether this was indeed liquor...
"Mmm... right, liquor does seem spicy. Then I don't want to drink liquor, I want Chicken Soup! Chicken Soup..."
Li Changle was on the verge of a breakdown. People with poor alcohol tolerance really shouldn't drink...
Where was he supposed to find Chicken Soup for her in the middle of the night?
"I'll make you Chicken Soup later, be good now. Drink this first, it's Hangover Soup, you won't feel bad after drinking it..."
"Then you have to make me Chicken Soup later, you promise!"
"Okay, okay, I'll make it later."
"Then pinky promise!"
"Okay, okay."
Li Changle nodded like a pecking chicken, linking pinkies with Wang Siyi.
He wondered if he could still buy raw chicken from food delivery at this hour...
Wang Siyi actually believed Li Changle's words and drank the Ginger Soup. However, after drinking half of it, she refused to drink any more.
She pursed her lips, refusing to open them, shaking her head and saying.
"It's too spicy, too spicy, I can't drink it anymore..."
After drinking the Ginger Soup, Wang Siyi seemed to have sobered up a bit. She felt pain in her ankle.
"My foot hurts."
She looked at Li Changle with her large, pleading eyes, appearing utterly pitiful and charming.
"Wait here, I'll go find some medicine for you..."
He got up and went to find Medicine for bruises, swelling, and pain for Wang Siyi. He searched the room for a few minutes before finding it. When he returned, he saw that Wang Siyi had already fallen asleep.
Li Changle sighed, picked her up, and carried her to the bed in the master bedroom.
He took off her shoes, covered her with the blanket, and looked at the woman sleeping on the bed. Li Changle felt a bit sorry for her.
Thinking about the few mumbled words she had uttered earlier, he could roughly guess what was going on.
Her singing career had hit a snag, and she had sought comfort from her family. Perhaps her family wanted her to give up singing, and her parents had arranged a job for her...
Wang Siyi probably wanted to be in charge of her own life and didn't want to be controlled by her family.
Not being understood was the most difficult thing...
He sighed, tucked her in again, and gently tiptoed out of the room.
Fortunately, she was asleep. Otherwise, he wouldn't know how to make her Chicken Soup at this hour...
The next morning, eight o'clock.
Wang Siyi's eyelashes fluttered, and she slowly opened her eyes. Her head ached a little. She looked around. Why was she sleeping here?
Last night...
Oh no! She seemed to have gotten drunk last night. Fragmented memories of the previous night surfaced.
After a tearful phone call with her mother, she had opened a bottle of Baijiu her grandfather used to drink. Had she drunk a bit too much?
Her last memory was feeling very sick and then somehow ending up here...
Wang Siyi had no idea what happened afterward; she had blacked out...
"Hiss~"
Pain shot up from her ankle, making her gasp.
She had been drunk last night, so why was her foot injured? There were traces of medicine on her ankle, likely applied by that guy.
And how did she end up sleeping in this room? Her foot was injured, so he must have carried her here, right?
Wang Siyi felt a wave of despair, her face flushing red, filled with regret.
"I shouldn't have drunk. I'll never drink again!"
She threw off the blanket, and the entire bed reeked of alcohol. Wang Siyi almost gagged at the smell.
Her beautiful eyebrows furrowed adorably again.
She wondered if she had thrown up last night. If she had, she wouldn't have thrown up on him, would she? Wang Siyi blushed. How embarrassing.
She had publicly embarrassed herself in front of him again!
More importantly, she had forgotten what happened last night and had no idea how embarrassing her actions had been.
Based on what she knew, this level of embarrassment surpassed the time she cried uncontrollably at the stairwell.
And she suspected there were even more embarrassing things she had done while drunk that she couldn't recall, but he had seen them.
She couldn't face anyone. Wang Siyi wanted to bury her head in the blanket, but the blanket smelled awful.
After a difficult time getting out of bed, he limped into the bathroom, planning to take a shower before deciding what to do next.
Li Changle had woken up past five this morning to go to the market and buy groceries, specifically purchasing a two-year-old hen.
He planned to make a Medicinal Cuisine Soup this morning. Wang Siyi had drunk a bit too much last night, and some Medicinal Cuisine Soup would do her good.
Besides, he had promised her he would make her Chicken Soup, and a person shouldn't go back on their word.
He had started simmering the soup around six, and it had been about two hours. He figured the soup should be almost ready.
He'd also make some noodles and prepare breakfast. He pondered whether he should go and call Wang Siyi.
Then, Li Changle saw Wang Siyi emerge, walking with a limp in her pajamas.
"Oh? You're awake? Are you okay?"
Li Changle walked over, intending to support her, as she seemed to be having a hard time walking.
However, Wang Siyi didn't intend to let him help her, stubbornly limping over on her own.
Li Changle felt a bit awkward but said nothing, just quietly bringing out the Chicken Soup and noodles.
Wang Siyi asked Li Changle with some confusion, "Why are you making Chicken Soup so early in the morning?"
"Huh? You asked me to make you Chicken Soup last night, remember? We even pinky-swore."
Hearing Li Changle say she had asked him to make Chicken Soup last night and that they'd pinky-swore, Wang Siyi's pretty face flushed. She immediately lowered her head, feeling embarrassed and not daring to look at Li Changle.
She had never said something as childish as pinky-swearing since she was little. What on earth had she done when she was drunk? Wang Siyi wailed internally, utterly devastated.
"Did you know you were drunk last night?"
Li Changle suddenly said to Wang Siyi with a serious tone.
"I-I knew."
Wang Siyi replied weakly.
"Why drink if you're not feeling well? Don't drink anymore in the future. I don't even know how much you drank; you came running over smelling of alcohol."
"I-I'm sorry. I caused you trouble."
Wang Siyi knew her drinking had caused problems and apologized to Li Changle, feeling embarrassed.
"It's fine, just don't drink anymore in the future. How's your foot? Does it still hurt?"
"A little..."
"That medicine, I put it on the sofa. Go and apply it later. It works well; it can relieve pain from bruises and swelling in two to three days."
"Thank you."
"Um, how did my foot get injured?"
Wang Siyi still asked with slight confusion.
"You don't remember what happened last night?"
Li Changle asked Wang Siyi.
"I-I don't remember clearly. I only know I got drunk."
Li Changle breathed a long sigh of relief internally.
It's good that you don't remember. If you did, I wouldn't know how to face you after that mortifying scene last night.
Li Changle felt fortunate that Wang Siyi didn't remember what happened when she was drunk. If she did, he might as well find a time to move out.
Li Changle pondered for a moment:
"I'm not entirely sure about the specifics. I only heard a noise outside the door, and then I saw you squatting by the entrance. I guess you must have kicked the door yourself."
Hearing Li Changle's guess, Wang Siyi immediately wanted to cover her face with her hands. It was too embarrassing.
How could she have done something so ridiculous? Getting drunk is one thing, but couldn't she use her hands to open the door!
Wang Siyi was utterly speechless at her own foolish behavior while drunk.
Li Changle watched her embarrassed expression and thought, There's even more embarrassing stuff to come. Fortunately, you don't remember.
Wang Siyi glanced at Li Changle again. "Um, besides kicking the door, did I do anything else strange?"
Li Changle saw her serious expression. Kicking the door was already your most normal behavior. Do you know, you hugged me, held me, and even tried to kiss me...
He struggled internally about whether to tell her the truth...
After thinking it over, he decided he couldn't:
"Probably not. You were quite quiet after you got drunk..."
"Then what's this about you making Chicken Soup?"
Wang Siyi looked at Li Changle with disbelief, finding his words not entirely trustworthy.
Li Changle's expression stiffened. He was anxious, trying to think of an excuse to brush her off.
"Oh, you were drunk and said you wanted Chicken Soup, so I promised you."
"Besides, I cook for you every day, so what's a little Chicken Soup?"
Wang Siyi nodded, not probing further.
Looking at the Chicken Soup in front of her, she still felt touched. This person had actually gone out to buy a hen because of a single drunken sentence she had uttered.
He had gone out before dawn to buy a hen and made her a pot of Chicken Soup.
She had seen Li Changle make soup before. A pot of soup takes at least two hours to simmer. Including preparation, that means he left around five to buy the ingredients.
She ladled a bowl of Chicken Soup and took a sip. It was delicious, the best Chicken Soup she had ever tasted.
There seemed to be an indescribable flavor in the Chicken Soup, something she couldn't quite place, but it was different from the Chicken Soup he had made before.
After drinking a bowl of Chicken Soup, Wang Siyi felt warm all over, and the headache caused by her drunkenness had lessened considerably.
She didn't stop at one bowl of Chicken Soup; she ate a bowl of noodles and drank another bowl of Chicken Soup.
Li Changle watched her eat two bowls of Chicken Soup and one bowl of noodles, and he immediately wanted to stop her.
She shouldn't be drinking Chicken Soup so early in the morning, nor should she be eating so much. Besides, wasn't she worried about gaining weight?
Wang Siyi wanted a third bowl of Chicken Soup, but Li Changle quickly stopped her.
"Uh, you can't drink any more. Drinking too much Chicken Soup in the morning isn't good."
Wang Siyi found the Chicken Soup very delicious. After drinking it, her whole body felt warm, and she hadn't eaten food she liked in a long time, so she couldn't control her appetite.
Seeing Li Changle stop her, she frowned and said with a slight pout, "But I just want to drink it~"
Hearing her pout, Li Changle's scalp tingled.
Can you get drunk on Chicken Soup?
This is unbelievable!
It was as if he saw the drunken Wang Siyi from last night again. Could it be that this version of Wang Siyi is the real Wang Siyi?
Does drunkenness reveal one's true feelings?
The goddess who usually seems so aloof... could she actually be a spoiled brat? No way, no way.
Li Changle felt he couldn't stay here any longer.
